DOWNFALL OF ENGLAND
Henry Watterson Says Monarchy Will
 Last Only Fifty Years.

Last Only Fifty Years.
 Binghamton. N. Y, Feb. 19.-Colo- nel Henry Watterson. speaking at dinner given him in the Binghamton Press club, said:
 Fifty years from today Germany will bear the same relative position to the United States that Holland does now. Fifty years from today, unless the United States p. aces sus- taining hands under John Bulls arms. God knows what will become of him.
 The Monroe doctrine. or republi- canism are no longer on trial; it is monarchy that is in danger The President of the United States today has tenfold more power than the King of England and the Emperor of Ger many. It accordingly may be well for us to sit down and see what the Mon roe doctrine is We have said that no European power shall acquire ter ritory on this continent.
 If we are going to protect every little mongTel nation in order to up hold the Monroe doctrine. why let's pay Germany her debt and tell her to get out But if we start on this course we will need an enlarged navy and a large army.
 If I owned this government would take the Isthmus of Panama and blow out a canal a mile wide so as to let the two oceans flow together. Then would say to England: Take all of
  to Germany. Take all of Central Amer 1 ica that you want I would greatly prefer to have England and Germany in these countries than the mongrel | governments that are there now"

A BIC DEAL
HOW IT CAME ABOUT

The rapidity with which new com mercial giants are born and grow to maturity in the Warren district is well it makes one dizzy to contemplate it. Not two months ago, the Calumet and Bisbee was launched, and the last link in She magnificent chain is the Calumet and CochiSe. The property is not only exceedingly promising, but it is well known fact that anything with "Calu- met" stamped on it goes. You could sell adobe brick for twenty dollars apiece if they had Calumet" moulded into -thsm. The big group comprises If claims. About year ago it was bond e6 by PirTung and Gmehle to the Cop per Queen. and the company put down g 150-shaft The option expired a week ago next Monday morning. The Copper Queen people, when they took the bond, evidently calculated on gath e-ng in the intervening territory be tween the group and their Lowell property, but the Calumet and Pitts btsrg getting iu between them, thus iso- ia8ng the new group from their old SI sion that the new property was not available for them. Having arrived at that conclusion they transferred their option to M. J. Cunningham, perhaps the shrewdest mining manipulator on the turf. sdr. Cunningham paid Pirr- nag and GmehIe for the ground and o5- tsined sole title. He then went to Chicago and succeeded in selling it to the new Calumet and Cochise company for one hundred and fifty thousand dol ] Jars. S25, GOO being paid down, the deeds in escrow, and the remainder of 4he purchase price to come a,ong over period covering two years. The Cal hnet and Cochise, while in no way ecunected with the Calumet and Bis bee. is largely composed of the same DeopIe. and their operations will be scCuducted along the same lines.
 They will begin standard develop aaents at once, with Scott Turner in
 r arse of the work. They will imme- tiateIy go to work on a two and one half compartment shaft, fully provi- &ed with everything necessary to pros Kcute the work to conclusion- ine 8roperty joins the Calumet and Pitts 8urg on the east and needs no send 2n in these columns, being dead in line with the Calumet and Arizona, tha Gardner, the Lowell and the Calu' znsr and Pittsburg, all of which are ac' Ercwledged 10 be wonders in the cop De field
