FORMER RESIDENT Is OKLAHO-
MAS oVERNoR.
(From fridays Daily

(From fridays Daily
Frank C. Frantz, formerly resident
of this city, and pleasantly remember
ed by many here, is now governor of
Oklahoma, as related by the dispatches
in yesterdays Journal-Miner He is
a native of Virginia, about 35 years of
age, and is probably one of the young
est, if not the youngest governor of
any state or territory in the Union.
He came to this city from Southern
California in the latter part of the year
1894, and served the Samuel Hill Hard
ware company in the capacity of book
keeper for more than two years. Later
he associated himself with the Akers
& Tritle Abstract company, and at
the time of the outbreak of the Spanish
American war was holding a position
with the Kentucky-Standard Mining
company at Richinbar, which he i'm
mediately resigned at the first call for
volunteers, enlisting in Company A
of the First Volunteer Cavalry, bet
ter known as the CROUCH Riders"
under Captain W. o. O'Neill, who was
at that time mayor of this city.
Upon the organization of the COM
pany he was elected and commissioned
as first lieutenant, and was appointed
by Ex-Governor Brodie, then senior ma
jor of the regiment as battalion adj
jutant. He served with the battalion
until the battle of San Juan Hill
on the first of July, 1898, when, after
the death of Captain O'Neill on that
famous battlefield he assumed the COM
mand of the troop of which he was the
ranking lieutenant. He distinguished
himself at the capture of the hill, and
was complimented by President
Roosevelt, then acting colonel of the
regiment, for his conduct on the bat
tlefield
After his regiment was mustered out
he returned to this city and again en-
tered the service of the Samuel Hill
Hardware company. Later he left
this city for Enid, Oklahoma, where
he engaged in the hardware business
with his brother He was subse-
quently appointed postmaster of that
city, and after serving in that capacity
for a time received the appointment
of register of the United States land
office at that place. He was serving
in this capacity when he received the
news of his appointment to the COVER
norship of this territory on Tuesday
last
He is young man of sterling qua
lities and good executive ability, one
who has eonvictisB and the courage
to express them. While here he aft
lated himself with the Democratic
party in politics, was very liberal in
his views and highly respected by
those who differed with him politically.
His promotion to such high post of
honor and responsibility at his early
age will be wondered at by many, but
those Familiarity acquainted with his
career here, his manly bearing at all
times, and the valiant services that he
rendered his country on the battle
fields of Cuba all agree that his pro-
motion was well merited and eompli-
ment the good judgment of President
Roosevelt in appointing him to a
place whee he can still further dis
play the talents with which he is en-
dowed in an executive way, and be of
still further service to his country.

COPPER STILL FIRM AT UN-
CHANGED PRICES.
(From Fridays Daily


prices. Lake and electrolytic for i'm.
mediate delivery are selling at 164 to
II cents per pound. There are few
transactions in spot copper, however
almost all business being for future ae-
count. There is more or less copper
being bought for January and Febru-
airy at -16as to 1615 cents per pound
and all indications are that this will be
the price for several months to come.
1t is agreed on all hands, however,
that the price of copper is almost I'M
fortunately high. Consumers are
afraid of decline of a cent per pound,
and producers are watching the mar
kets closely for indications that con-
sumption is being eurtailed. If it
had been possible to prevent an advance
above 10 cents it would have been
done; and should conditions warrant
it, the price may be marked down to
I6 or 1515 cents in the early part of
next year. At present, however, it
would be impossible to supply the de-
mand at anything less than 1615 cents,
says Geo. L. Walker in the Boston Com
mercial.
Exports of copper from Atlantic
ports during October amounted to
about 1900 tons. The figures will
probably be brought up to 10000 tons
when Pacific coast returns are in. I'm
ports of copper reached total of 6S,
$50 tons in the first nine months of
the year, compared with 59,47O tons
IN the corresponding period of last
year. The increase comes largely
from Mexico; but some of it was
bought in Europe to be brought here
and refined.
Domestic consumption OF copper is
exceeding all previous records, and it
seems to be increasing in spite of the
high prices. London adj
vices state that European consumption
is exceedingly large and prospects for
its continuance good. Electrical
equipment seems to be entering upon a
boom period there.
AS far as can be seen there is no
prospect that the price of copper will
fall below a 15-cent average for sew
eral years. There is a rapidly grow
ing consumption of the metal in ev-
cry line where it is used. The cleo
trical equipment of steam railroads has
begun, and how far and fast it will
progress can only be guessed. 1t Isl
certain beyond question that there will
be a consumptive demand at good
prices for all the copper the mines
can be made to yield as long as bust
ness expansion continues.
The remarkable strength of the metal
is bringing a great deal of
new capital into the copper mining
and this is operating to buoy
1p and broaden the share market. Sew
eral important consultations and ex-
tensions are under way, the effect of
which cannot be other than to force
he prices of individual stocks higher.
Almost every operating company is u.s.
ng a portion of it's big profits for ex-
,loratory work, and openings are in
instances furnishing an abundance of
,uel for speculative fire. The fact
hat copper share prices are not yet
Ugh, the earnings of operating com
,anies averaging fully 10 per cent.
IN present quotations, and that only
me or two new fotations have as yet
,een placed on the market, makes the
ituation healthy and warrants the be-
ief that the active interest of the
public in the eoppers will continue to
for many months to come.

SINKING A WINE IN THE

work sinking a winze from the mali
tunnel. This Wine was down 50 fee
from the bottom of the tunnel, giving
it a depth of about 1S5 feet from the
surface, with 214 to 81 feet of ore
consisting of quartz and iron, the
ledge matter being porphyry and iron
The formation is soft and easily
handled. The winze will be sunk TO q
depth of 100 feet, when drifts will
be run to both walls for the purpose OF
determining the width of the ledge at
that depth. This Wine was sunk
for a distance of about 20 feet on the
hanging wall, but for the last IL feet
it has been all in ledge matter, and
away fom the wall, and it now looks as
if the ledge was charging very much
at this point. As to how the pro-
perty now looks to the practical miner
may be judged from the fact that the
men employed there are taking every
cent of their wages in stock, and ex-
press themselves as ready to put in
the winter on this property on the
same terms.
Prospecting Claims.
The United Vede Copper Co. will
prospect their North and South Ven
ture claims by tapping them by tunnel.
This property is located about one
mile south of the U. V. smelter.
Senator Clark Expected.
Senator W. A. Clark has returned
from Europe, and will visit Jerome
within the next two or three weeks, to
look over his interests in this district.
At the Cleopatra.
At the Cleopatra work is being con-,
tinued with good results, this being
so in the main tunnel. On
the surface General Manager Hull
is building a piece of road just above
the one leading to the mine. This will
allow teams lots of room to turn, they
going in on the upper one and returning
on the lower. On the south side of
the gulch the roadway being built from
the mouth of the Dillon tunnel is be-
ing continued to the fiat nearly oppo-
site the smelter site, at which place,
Mr. Hull will at once grade for roast
beds. After roasting the ore will be |
again taken over the tramway to the
smelter.
Copper Chief.
A mining expert from British Col
lmbia was looking over the Copper
Chief during the past week, and seems
to be favorably impressed. This is
big property, there be-
ing millions of dollars worth of ore
exposed in its workings.
