 WORKS IS NOW About Complete
AN ENTERPRISE THAT WILL ADD
 MATERIALLY TO THE PLACE.
Copper Queen to Open Custom snne't ina Department at Its Reduction Works-Will Be Known as the Sam pier, and Occupies building seps- rate and Distinct From Others.
Special to ReviewD

|
 Douglas. Tuesday-Another enter
 prise of vast importance to Eastern
 Arizona. Western New Mexico and
 Mexico mining interests, will begin
 getting in splendid work about the first of the coming month, when the Cop
 per Queen reduction works in this city
 will open its custom smelling depart
 ment for the treatment of copper. gold, silver and lead ores. This department
 will be known as the sampler. and oc
 cupies a building separate from the big smelling plant.
 The work of equipping the custom plant has been going on for several
 months, and is now very near com plete. The plant is thoroughly mod ern, and mining men who have been familiarized with details of equipment express confidence that the work Of the plant will be of the character to bring it such an immediate rush of
 business that early enlargement will
 be necessary to meet the demands of the trade that will come 10 il. This trade will not only include large ore shipments that now go to Fl Paso. but much new trade made possible by shorter haul 10 reduction works. and
 consequently freight rates that will permit of the mining of thousands oi tons of ore in territory tributary to Douglas that can not be profitably mined and shipped to Fl Paso. To realize the full importance of the new enterprise, it needs to be considered that there are immense bodies of cop per ores going from to 10 per cent in eastern Arizona and Sonora with ad- ditional values of from 8 to SIP in gold. besides silver and lead. To mine and ship these ores for the cop per values alone would mean a loss to the mine owner that no business policy would dictate, while to ship to Fl Paso from much of the territory to recover all the values would be little wiser. for returns after deducting freight and smelter- charges would amount to lit tie more than would the yield from re- covery at home of the copper values singly. Until the present time this
 has been the situation with many com paratively low grade mining proposi- tions in Clifton. Morenci, Globe, Bis bee. Western New Mexico and Sonora mining camps. It has been either necessary to deliver to straight cop per smelling plant and lose the gold, silver and other values, ship 10 Fl Paso and take chances on breaking even, or hold the ore for the coming Of plant nearer home that would re- cover all the values. Many thousands of tons of ore have been held up in this way, and it is believed by many people familiar with the situation that

Louisville, Tuesday.-Henry Waiter son, in an editorial in his paper, takes W. J. Bryan to task for his New York speech against Judge Paker and com mends the latter in positive terms. His editorial is as follows:

Bryan himself.
 Nothing more disreputable has ever come about in American politics If one could credit Mir. Bryan with the least sincerity; if he had any tangile objective point or reasonable alterna- tive, if he could even trump a decent pretext. Nothing of the kind shows either above or below the surface Of Mir. Bryan's surpassing folly, malevo- lence and disloyalty.
 Happy, indeed are those who are out of politics; yet manhood is still manhood; honor is still honor; and truth is still truth. How different all this might have been, Mir. Bryan might have gone into the St. Louis convention a very angel of light. He might have appeared there amid it's cheeriest applause. He had only to be just, to be true to the spirit he has so often invoked, to show himself a large-hearted. magnanimous man, seek ing the general good. He could have
 made himself a tower of strength. Il

 wrangle with a widow over her hus | bands estate, who could accept diplo- matic favors from the Republican ad-

WHAT
 I'VE" DIE.

The Republican platform, prepared so carefully in Washington and guard ed so solicitously in Chicago, is the narrowest of partisan bigotry. Un alloyed pharisaism would be mild char acteriza;ion of it. The darkest oi the Dark Ages would have been the only logical period of it's evolution.
 It arrogates to the Republican party all intelligence and patriotism, and claims for Republican performance all well-being and well-doing. All its op- ponents are bad; everything they did was bad. It alone embraces the right eous: it alone has done the work oi man-planted and reaped. manufactur ed and marketed, fought our battles built our ships, supplied cur soldiers, saved. salted and sanctified the earth We" have done this; we" have done that; we" have done everything that was worth doing; we" have done nothing that we should not have done.

Rung Off On BOOz.

Commencing with the new year
a very acceptable reform went into
effect on the Monterey and Staun-
ton mail hack line, It being decided
by the contractor and carriers to
discontinue the transportation OF
whiskey on the line.
One of the carriers, Mr. Charles
Cross, had not hauled any whiskey
for several years. This threw it all
on the one hack and Mr. Hook said
it was such troublesome business
and 80 hard to keep from getting
tan gled that he decided to cut it
out. which he has done with the
hearty assent of Mr. James Cross,
the contractor, and from thence
forth this hack can not be consider
ed as a taveling boozitorium.
This reform will be saving to the
county Of dollars and headaches,
but that matters should not get
worse we should have an eye on
Durbin Dead Shot when the west
ern line starts up.

Not since the year 1896, s wears
ago, have Highland people done so
little marrying. The saying that
few marriages indicate a mild VIM
ter, will not hold good in Highland
for 1908, for during the year only
80 couples were joined in holy
wedlock. In 1928 the number ran
down to 80, but since that date
until this year Al was the lowest.
The highest in the s years WAS so
which was for the year 1897. That
would indicate that business along
this line will move up briskly in
1904. especially when we take into
account that it is leap year.

Accidents.

Monday night Mr. Hook one of
the mail carriers on the Stanton
mail line was coming along at
a moderate jog down Monterey
mountain when an axel broke. Mr.
Hook and the only passenger, Mr.
S B Rexrode were thrown from the
hack. but no injuries were sustain
ed by either, except that the latter
had a right badly sprained hand.
On the same evening Mr. John
Kramer was thrown from his ve-
hicle. on the mountain west of
town, on account of "a wheel break
ing down. He fell across a wheel
and bruised his knees badly.

The Holiday Entertainments.

all extremely successful. A brief

grown up folks because of the en-

The same figures apply to the

ses, the total for the two being
$4,000, and this amount is interest
bearing from the first day of Jany.

since such exercises prove so profit
able, no holiday season will be allow

bv only a few intimate friends Of
the contracting parties.
Thegroom is well known in this
citv, being attorney for the Blue
field Water Works and Improve
ment Company. as we'll as for the

is one of the most prominent law.
yers in Sothern West Virginia.
The bride is the daughter of T H
Slaven of Monterey, Highland Co.
Va. but is no stranger in this sec
ton, having made her home at
Princeton for number Of years,
during which she was Mr. Reynolds
photographer. During her resi-
dence at the county seat she has
greatly endeared herself to the peo-
pie Of the little town, who are unit
ed in their expressions of pleasure
over the fact that she is to become
a permanent resident.
The above announcement which
appeared in the Bluefield Telegram
was quite a surprise to the High
land friends Of Miss Slaven. After
spending the summer with her
parents here she went to South
west Virginia to accept position
and ION her way stopped off at
Princeton to pay a visit to friend
and thus came the happy event re-
lated above.
Although we, her home people,
have seen but little of Miss
Edmonia for the past ten years, yet
we can not nelp feeling somewhat
put out by her having made such
permanent and lasting arrange
ments by which we are forced to
relinquish even the small claim we
held upon her.
In the above notice we are not
surprised to find complimentary
mention made of the bride. She
possesses many loveable traits of
character such as make and hold
friendship. At home she has eyer
been held IN high esteem and so it
would be among strangers.
TO Mr.. and Mrs. REYNOLDS we ex-
tend hearty congratulations.
