Fortunes In Copper Mining.

The Victoria, Mass and Adj
venture, with over two mill
lion dollars of ore in sight,
offer unusual opportunities
for large investment. Every
one has heard of enormous
fortunes made in copper min
ing, from small investments.
How a few dollars invested at
the proper time during the
early developments OF mines
have increased and grown to
thousands and hundreds Of
thousands, as the wonderful
resources Of the mine we're
brought to light and develop

how people, with no hopes of
ever becoming rich, have ia

Now here is just such an
opportunity as many OF these

dent that they would need certain
notifications to assure to stockmen
a more equitable use of the range
without in the least loosening those
essential restrictions on which the
very existence of the livestock in
dustry depends. From the first, the
main body of the grazing interests
quickly grasped the advantages of
grazing under a system of regulation,
and Justly appreciated the fairness of
a reasonable charge which would Sc
cure permanent use of the range.
Naturally enough, the terms OF the
grazing regulations have called forth
discussion and suggestion, but, with
the exception of Colorado, protests
have been received from no grazing
state calling for more than the amend
ment Of certain of the restrictions
under which the grazing privilege was
to De paid for. The protest OF Colo
RADIO grazing interests against the pay
ment of any grazing fee whatever led
to the conference held on December
at GlenwOod Springs, at which repre-
sentatives of local associations OF
livestock owners conferred with the
forester. Certain concessions for
which the experience of the forest
service with the new regulations had
paved the way were then agreed to by
the forester. These concessions are
included in the revised edition of the
grazing regulations which the Secre-
tary of Agriculture issued the first OF
the year.
Among the new regulations that
went into effect were these
Regulation IA provides for the con,
struction and maintenance of drift or
division fences, under certain cendlt-
ions, without charge other than the
regular grazing fee.
Regulation II has been amended so
as to provide that whenever any stock
is removed before the expiration OF
the permit, it can be replaced by other

Did 1t pay to be a Rough Rider?
When Capt Frank Frantz was ap-
pointed governor Of Oklahoma, at a
salary of 5000 a year people OF the
territory began to believe that 1t did.
When Charlie Hunter, president of the
National Rough Riders Association, was
named as clerk of the Federal court at
Oklahoma City, a position that carries
with it fees amounting TO more than
$4,000 a year, Oblahomans Strengthened
up and were willing to confess that he
was indeed fortunate who followed
Lieut.. Col. Roosevelt up San Juan hill
in the face of Spanish bullets
Frantz and Hunter are not the only
ones who profited by the Cuban cam
paign. however. The records OF the
Rough Riders Association show that
of the eighty members of that famous
regiment now living in Oklahoma and
Indian Territory, more than 20 per cent
are at present holding Federal positions.
Had tie question of whether 1t paid
to be Rough Rider been put to the
regiment when it first landed at Mon
tauk Point, where the sick and wound
ed suffered for the lack of almost every
thing, the answer probably would have
been in the negative. But time has
erased the memory of those hardships.
and with the good fortune and advance
ment of the regiments leader has come
a turn in the affairs of the men who
stood ready TO do and dare at his COM
mand.
In Oklahoma and Inoian Territory to-
day 1t is looked upon as good thing

to have been a member Of the famous
regiment. And that President Roosevelt
has kept a watchful eye on the men,
bers of his Rough Riders is a fact evil
denced by the recent and important ap-
pointments OF its members to Federal
positions of honor and good remunera-
ton.
The governorship of Oklahoma was
practically thrust upon Captain Frantz.
He was never an office seeker. and it
was with a great deal OF reluctance that
he relinquished his position as Usage
Indian agent, where he had laid out
three or four years work among the In
dians. TO accept the honors and duties
as governor. In fact, It was only after
he had been called to Washington,
where the insistence Of the President
and the politicians battered down his
objections to giving up his work among
the Osages, that he accepted the ap-
pointment making him governor.
The records CT Charles Z. Hunter. Of
Oklahoma City. president of the Natioal
Rough Riders Association, although in
complete. are responsible for the fol-
lowing list of Rough Riders holding Office

salary Mr.. Hunters position as clerk
Of the Federal court is more lucrative
than any of the other appointments.
He modestly estimated his position to
be worth 5000 a year. but those who
previously held the office admit that 1t
is worth from $4,000 10 900 q year

that Americans were capable Of

are they are capable also of introduc-
ing American ideas of comfort in

The scheme that is going to make
this dream come true is Baron de
LobePs project for an Asia-Alaska
railway. OF course the construction
of $500 miles of railway in Siberia
is possible; and the construction Of
2,3OO miles of railway running down
the coast through Alaska and Brit
ish America is mere pagatelle. The
crux OF the whole proposition Is the
Behring strait tunnel.
Ii will mean the wedding Of Asia
and America when it is accomplish
ed. Looking into the future one can
see the Pan-American railroad COM
pleted, and all rail routes connect
ing all points in North or South
America with all points in Europe,

merely ferrying across Panama canal

route. Tunneling the Pacific seems

1t sounds like pretty tough propo-
sition, but Baron de Lobel says he
can do it. He says, moreover, that
the material to be excaYated would
not exceed that taken out for the

build the tunnel and the AsiatI, end

innate that it will take ten years
to complete the works, and his COM

with the mining concessions covered,
