viously stated, the interests of
Governor Grant and his associates
and those of the Gugpenheims con.
stitute the greater part of the huge
smelling industry of this continent,
and the Gnggenheims are the owners
also of many of the most valuable of
American and Mexican mines. The
original cash investment out Of
which this great aggregation of wealth
has grown was the 80, 200 which was
paid for the \. Y. and Minnie mines.
Another proof of the great profits
of smelling IL the fact that the
smelter trust Is paying dividends up
ON u capitalization enormously in en-
cess of the cost OF it's properties. \
large part of its capitalization Is
water. The other part is based upon
the absuidly high prices II paid for
many of the plants which IL pur.
chased. In one instance exactly ten
times the price for which one smelt.
ing plant had previously been offered
to the Guggenheims was paid for IL
by the trust. In another instance
millions we're paid for u plant that
was obsolete aud has since been dis.
mantled. II the profits of the trust
were figured on the basis of the actual
cost of its property. the showing
would be "A revelation.
Owing to the facilities for trans.
pnrtation and the greatly improved
metallurgical methods, the indepen.
dent smelters now entering the field
have advantages and opportunities for
profit which the men who founded the
smelling trust did not have. The
field Is more extensive, the bodies of
ore which have been developed and

ment of $4,000.

AS dividend payers mines and
smelters are rivals for the fret place
among the great industries of the
country. In no other form OF pro.
duction Is capital assured of such
large and certain profits as 1t Is when
mining and smelling are combined
under one management.
Proof Of the earning capacity Of
mines and smelters Is afforded by the
huge fortunes that have been created
out of their profits. Among the
wealthiest men In America today are
the large stockholders In the Amer.
ican Smelling 4 Refining company.
Less than twent! five years ago these
men were comparatively poor and the
wealth which they now possess did
not exist. The story of their rapid
rise to atiiuence and power Is a part
Of the industrial and financial his.
tory Of this country.
Five thousand dollars WAS the foun-
dation of the fortune amounting to
scores Of millions now placed to the
credit of the members of the Guggen.

paid large dividends, and the early
profits were enough to furnish the
capital to enable the owners to start

ranted by increased supplies of ore,
they added largely to it's capacity
until II WAS mauy times its original
size. The profits OF the business
were the sources of the capital hy
which IL grew. They built other
smelters at suitable places in this
country, British America and Mex
ioc, and they also bought many ut
the most productive mines in the
three countries. In consolidating
with the Smelter trust, the American
Smelling 4 Refining company, they
reserved most of their mining inter
ests. bat through their smelter hold
ings became a controlling factor IN
one of the greatest of modern indus
trial combinations.
The other great branch of the
smelling industry, before the forma
tion of the present merger also had
it's origin in Leaiville. 1t was built
up by James Il. Grant and his asso.
ciates. Mr.. Grant, afterwards gov
ernOr of Colorado, went to Leadville
as an assayer. He had no fortune.
The money to pay for his technical
education had been supplied by al
uncle. His earnings as an assayer
and ore buyer formed the capital with
which he started. His associates
we're Edward Eddy and William II.
James, ore buyers for the smelter
then ut Golden, and other smelling
works. They were also at that time
comparatively poor men. The ore
buying business in which these men
engaged AS partners developed nat

handling. They built smelter at

From The Journal Bureau. Colorado Building,

Washington, March 29.-Represen-
tative Bede Of Duluth will probably
make another speech in congress be-
fore adjournment The date provi-s
sionally set is the early part Of April. Y.
ts'They wanted me to get into the.
debate on the postoffice matter, said
Mr.. Bede to the Journal correspon-
ent, ''but I told them that. as long as.
I had not been indicted, I thought I
should not take the time of the house,.
The men who have been indicted by
the Bristow report should have the
first call on speeches."
What will you talk about next
month";" ] asked
"Oh, + don't know was the reply.
ANY old subject that suggests itself.
You see, ] am almost compelled to
make this second talk, SO as to con-
vince the house that the first speech
wasn't the result Of an accident" &
Since Mr.. Bede burst into fame with
his maiden effort. several weeks ago,
he has been much in demand from
all parts Of the country. I presume
that he has received as many as three
hundred invitations to deliver adj
dresses.
They have come from all sorts Of
people, representing all sorts Of or
ganizations and movements. To prac-
/ tically every one of them he has
returned polite negative. The few
dates which he has made were made
thru members Of the house whom he
was anxious to please.
Bede's popularity in congress In in
creasing rapidly. and it is no wild
guess that he is to fill to overfowing
the place so long occupied by "Pri-
vate'' John Allen Of Mississippi. And
II he should do this, he will be one
of the most valuable men ever sent
to congress by Minnesota.
Allen could get things for his dis
could get them. He carried every
thing before him by his ability as a
story-teller and by his gifts as wit
and humorous debater. He was as
popular in the cloakrooms as on the
floor or on the platform.
/ And this Is Bede exactly. Congress
| is fond of a man who can provoke
a laugh and whose wit carries no
listing, and such a man is Bede. It
begins to look as il the eighth dis
trict did a pretty wise thing when 1t
sent him to congress.
T The other day Bede was at the
White House, calling on the presiden
who, before the interview closed
asked him about his family. When
he learned about the young sons OF
the congressman, he got two OF his
photographs, and, writing on each a
very pleasant greeting to the young
men, gave them to the father to give
to them.
