terest in the Federal Mining & Smelt-
ing company, through the acquisition
OF approximately 100000 of the out

pany has also acquired nearly all the
Of California, valuable copper prop
erty. The American Shelters Securi-
ties company will receive from it's
Federal mining investment about
100000 annually but under the sys-
tenn of smelter Improvement and ex.
tension planned the income will soon
greatly exceed this, while it will virtu-
ally control the smelling business.

company was organized by Charles
Sweeny with an issued capital of
$l0,000,000 common and $5,0000 600 pre-

which such a rich strike was made a
few days ago by Messrs. Besslers and

Baskets holding one bushel or more
are used to considerable extent on all
farms where there is much in the way
OF heavy vegetables or grains to han

one is obliged to handle the basket In
any way possible unless some plan is
arranged for inserting handles. The

attaching handles which costs but lit

PORTLAND TO GUADALAJARA
Southern Pacific to Have Seaboard
Line 800 Miles Long.

News has been received in Chi
hauahua, Mexico, from Guaymas to
the effect that good progress is being
made on the surveys of the Southern
Pacifics line between that place and
Guadalajara, and that contracts are
being let and actual construction work
will be started in a short time. Pre-
liminary surveys have already been
run. The line from Guaymas will be
about 1900 kilometers in length and
will be one of the most important in
Mexico.
When the road is completed it will
give the Southern Pacific one of the
longest sea board lines in the world,
extending, as it will, from Portland,
Ore, to Guadalajara, a distance of
about 300 miles, which is practically
a seaboard line for the entire distance.

This government obtained all the
land comprising these territories by

Of the opinion that conservative es.
