THE ORPHAN EPISODE
Governor Brodie Has Investigated
 and Reported to President

Alexander O. Brode, governor of Arizona, spent last evening in the city. During the early part of the evening the governor was the guest of Supt. Walter Dou las at his residence, and it was after II o'clock when the gover-
 nor returned to the Copper Queen hotel, where newspaper men and local republicans were waiting to see him. Governor Prodie has recently re- turned from the east, where he went on official business and to visit Mrs. Brodie, who has been compelled to re- main in the east for some tiale on ac count of her health.
 Governor Brodie was in Washing. ton at the time the attention of the president was drawn to the Orphan asylum incident at Clifton. At the suggestion of the president the gov. ernor returned to Ariz ina aud on Thursday and Friday of this week made personal investigation of the charges pro aud con. Statements of the leading citizens of Clifton and Morenci were taken by the governor, and great deal of other documentary evidence, all of which has been for warded to the president, together with the report of the governor on the subject, which report has not yet been made public and will not be until the president releases it. The governor was of the opinion that the matter will finally be settled in the probate court of Graham county aud hear ing of the applications of the families of Clifton to adopt the orphan chil- dren in question, has been set for two weeks hence in order that the Found. ling Asy lum of New York could have representative present at that time.

The Copper Situation

John Stanton says that artificial metal markets are of the past aud that it would be utterly impossi ble to carry out any deception in the way of sec retly storing a portion of the copper forwarded to Europe during the past year. He calls attention to the fact that the Japanese are no longer sup. plying copper, and that their stores, as well as those of their aiversaries, are being repleniShed, while In the further fact that the exports of copper for the first nine months of this year aggregated 1S0, 600 tons is reflected the extent of electrical development un- derway in the large countries of Flu rope, where in some places electrical plants are being operated night and day in order to meet the demands.
 Included in the exports is portion of the products of the mines of Mexico and Canada, among those of the latter being the Granby, which is now sup plying the metal at the rate of 20, 900, 900 pounds per annum.
 Mir. stanton reports constantly in creasing volume of orders for copper for domestic consumption and does not hesitate to predict that it will be firm at l4 cents before the close of the year. An advance above this figure is not to be desired, tending, as it does, to decrease consumption and increase the supply from unstable sources that become simply a disturb. ing factor.-Michigan Mining Gazette.

COPPER IS AT LAST UP
 TO THE ACCENT LEVEL

Everybody in financial circles who is at all interested in the copper situ- tion and the copper shares is now talk ing about the present phenomenal metal market. A l4'cent market has at last been reached, and that, too, be- fore election day-the predicted time for it. And what is more, if the de. mand continues at it's present rate and supplies do not increase to meet the same, it is more than likely that the price will be at least half a cent higher before that time. The majority of the lake producers are now asking 14 cents and that, too, for December delivery Indeed, no offerings whatever of any earlier shipments are being made at present.
 All the representatives of the lead ing producing interests here in Boston are still agreed that the market is in a thoroughly sound position. There is no question whatever but that the consumers who have bsen holding off from purchasing supplies are now in the market In good earnest, and this, taken in connection with the con tinued abnormal foreign demand, is responsible for the present unusual condition-conditions that bid fair even now to open the way to still niger range of prices in the near flu. ture.-Boston Journal.

WEED OUT THE EVIL.

The city officials are determined
to rid the city of all undesirable
characters. both men and women,
and to this end are just beginning
vigorous campaign. 1t may shock
some of the good people to learn
that vice does thrive right in our
beautiful city, but it does. Not to
such an alarming extent but much
officials should be given every CO.
operation by the citizens to drive out
the tin horn gamblers and other
questionable characters.
The mayor and the city marshal
in speaking of the matter said, it
seemed almost impossible to get rid
of a certain class of people here.
They could be hauled into police
court and fined, and their places
closed up, but it would be but a
few days before they had established
themselves in another location, and
it would take weeks and perhaps
months to secure sufficient evidence
against them again to convict them
on. This could be largely done
away with, if those having houses
or rooms to rent, would require pros
pective tenants of whose good char
acter there was doubt, to furnish a
bill of character, as it were, before
the house would be turned over to
them. The trouble is that people
will rent to anyone who has the
money to pay their rent. never con-
sidering that they may be violating
the law. as we'll as assisting the
most undesirable characters in prey
ing on fools and contaminating the
morals of the city.
1t is less than a week ago that a
private dwelling in an eminently res
pectable part of the city was raided
by the police, because there was
reason to believe that poker game
for good stakes was in progress there,
and it is not the only place by a long
ways where quiet game may be
found, and it is to be regretted that
often the landlord has at least an
inkling of what is going on in his
property.

WHY DON'T THEY vorEr

Why is it that so many registered
voters do not cast their ballots on
election day, is a question often asked
at the close of every political con-
test. A small per cent is prevented
by sickness, pressing business, or
absence from home, but to think that
during an exciting national. state and
local election. over thirty per cent
of those who could vote, did not, is
a matter that is surprising to large
number of citizens. Yet such was
the case in Weld county. The reg
istration books in Greeley and other
precincts in Weld county show Il
total registration of II, 500 votes,
vet but 1914 of these cast their bal
lots.
No wonder that corrupt political
machines are built up and raScally
bosses are allowed to rule and indif
ferent, if not incapable men are NOM
mated for responsible positions, when
nearly one-third of Weld county's
electors failed to exercise their
right of franchise. For it is safe to
say that not that number of citizens
were sick, or absent from home Nov
ember s. For it is from the stayat
home and careless voters that politi-
cal bossism gets its strongest support.

and finally like all the things OF SUI
perlative degree in excellence they
were syndicated into huge trust,
and we have them now at the uni
form price of fifteen cents for one or
for a dozen, for all the we'll estab-
lished varieties. Our government
has through its pure food commission
been recently investigating these
breakfast foods and what do you sup
pose it reports concerning their won
derful qualities for building up brain
and Drawn? The report Is before
me as | write, and 1t says, in effect,
that they are one and all simply so
much bread, got up in an appetizing
form, but not whit more nourish-
ing or healthful in any respect. And
speaking of bread reminds me, also,
that we allow our gullible instincts
and credulties to get the start OF us
in much the same way, as to that. l
will illustrate: l will take for in
stance the bakers bread that so many
of us use, and / will select for an exam
pie from others that would probably
serve equally we'll, the kind with
which l am myself most familiar
the kind that is supposed to be like
the bread our mothers used to make
but isn't, and which should weigh Il
pound to the loaf, but doesn't. If it
did weigh a pound, and more
over contained sixteen ounces of flour
there would still be one hundred per
cent profit for manufacture and sale,
which considering commercial deal
ings generally ought to be pretty fair
rate, because the loaf retails for a
nickel and -four at wholesale is GER
tainly not more than two and half
cents. But it couldn't contain six
teen ounces of -four if it weighed a full
pound because bakers bread by govern
ment analysis contains from twenty
five to thirty per cent of added water
above the moisture originally con-
tanned in the flour. And as before
stated it does not weigh pound to
the loaf, but on the contrary, from
twelve to fourteen ounces; very often
but twelve, and rarely not more
than fourteen, which after deducting
the water at twenty-five per cent
leaves in the one instance the actual
content in flour, at nine ounces,
and in the other ten, and costing
for the twelve ounces one cent and
forty hundredths, and for the four
teen ounce loaf one and eighty-seven
hundredths. Only little matter of
three hundred per cent profit in
labor and handling on the original
investment. To use an ancient ex
pressive term of comparison. How
is that for high?'
Very respectfully submitted.

only for the table of the wealthy,
the great food product for the poorer
people must be potatoes, and long
before the winter is over there will

potatoes happens to be this food. po-

HUMANE CASE IN COURT.

The case of the state VS.. Bert Par
SONS, charged with brutally whipping
horse. formerly the property of
James II. CosRrove was called before
Justice Sweeney in the court room
this morning.
The state was Represented by Attor-
ney W S. Sloan, of Dist. Atty. Nc
Mullins office. and the defendent by
S. N. Wheeler.
There were quite a number of wit
nesses. The complaining witness was
Alvin Mcclure. He was called first
by the prosecution and related the cir
cumstance of seeing Parsons whipping
the horse on the Pa,isade road, near
the Teller ranch. ON the day of Feb.
9Th.
The rebuttal testimony showed that
the horse was balky and positively
fierce in his attempts to run away
and to throw himself and that Parsons
used no more force in whipping the
animal than would have been used bv
any person driving or attempting to
brake the animal.
Mrs. Walter S. Sullivan. agent of
the Colorado Humane Society in this
county, was present to lend the moral
force of her presence to the prosecu-
tion in its effort to convict Parsons of
brutality.
