THE VALUE OF COPPER
Output Exceeds That of Gold In Val-
 ue by Nearly $15,000,0O0

A glance at figures will show the value of the copper mines of the United States. Their output exceeds that of gold in value by nearly $l5,- 0OO,OO0. As dividend payers it has long been recognized that some of the big copper properties are without equals. It takes more capital and time to put big copper producer in the dividend list but in most of the gigantic undertakings, with the aim of developing great copper mines, the returns were marvellous.
 As to She future of copper the lead ing authorities declare that there is little ground for anything but good expectations if the metal can be pro- duced at reasonable cost. Demand keeps pace with the supply and new discoveries not more than outweigh the use of the red metal.
 The growth in the use of copper in the last few years has scarcely found parallel in any industry, which fact is due largely on account of this being an age of electricity.

 Until Japan was born again by the Caesarian process, these inert masses were comparatively harmless, as they Knew nothing of war, had no arms to light with, and were to great extent satistied with existing conditions. It Is not so long ago as to have passed rom memory that an English officer in three years trained several thousand Chinese, armed them, and without difficulty whipped ten times their number with their antiquated meth. ods, and Chinese Gordon testified to the lighting qualities of his Chinese soldiers, to their ability as marchers, and the exceedingly small cost for their food.

HEARST WAS TURNED DOWN
lis Methods Too Coarse and Ills
 Ability Questioned

A Washington, D. C., dispatch says John Sharp Williams, leader of the minority, is having little tussel with William Randolph Hearst, who is showing such startling and aggreS- stye methods in developing his own presidential candidacy.
 There is a vacancy on the demo- cratic side of the ways and means committee of the house. It was ere ated by the retirement of George B. Mcclellan from the house tO become mayor of New York. The speaker h B not filed this committee vacancy, for the reason that Mir. Williams has made no recommendation
 A few days ago it occurred to Mir. Hearst or some of his friends, that this would be comfOrta ble place for him. He ordered his pOlit- iCal manager to see that he was gen erOuSly lndorS ed for the place.
 The result was prompt, and just a bit astonishing to Mir. Williams. He is a little old fashioned in his politi- cal methods, in fact not many are re. quired in his district, where he never has any republican opposition. A few days ago telegrams endorsing Hearst for this place began to appear. Some were from leaders of labor unions, but nearly all were from the secretaries of Hearst clubs. MT. Williams never re- ceiyed so many telegrams before in his life.
 One of the features of the messages was that they were nearly all phrased exactly alike. Up to this day he has received more than 100 of these mes- Sages, They made him angry, and he sent letter to the effect that it was bis intention to recommend a man rom New York, if the democrats of the Empire state indorsed represent alive whose abilities md experience emitted him to the place.
 There is no chance of the New York 0eIfgaton indorsing Hearst. It may agree upon Sulzsr, but the expecta- ton Is that Burke Cochran, who has been elected to take the seat made va. cant by Mayor Mcclellan, will get the place.

AS a result of the recent disaster at the Independence mine at Victor, Col orado, the commissioner of the state mining bureau has instructed his dep- uties to notify mine managers through out the state to make such changes as are necessary in their shaft equipment and mine operation as were recom- mended by the special committee of inquiry appointed by him to investi- gate the cause of the accident at the Independence mine. It is said that l50 mines will be required to make material changes to conform to the new requirements. Among other changes the mines will be required to place extra "chairs" in the head frames, and devices on the cages to prevent overwindng Mining X Sci entit tic Press
