 The Clifton Copper Collared Era seems much more worried about "the political future" of Mr. Bird than is Mir. Bird himself. When the political future" of MT. Bird depends upon his submitting to the gag rule of a republican conven- ton, dominated by a democratic attorney of a foreign mining corpo- ration, why, that political future" can go to he'll. Of course it will be somewhat inconvenient, for in the place to which 1t is herein con- signed the said political future" will clash again with the hirelings of the foreign copper masters of Arizona.

was questioned as to the cause of the
grain embargo. He made the following
statement;
1.-The cause of the trouble is merely
prosperity, prosperity. The railroads
have more freight to handle than they
can take care of; they are working
night and day to serve their customers;
they are doing their utmost-and as
usual they are getting harshly criticised.
"The demand for cars all over the
country is unprecedented The block
ade started in the West and has been
gradually coming East, until now the
East is experiencing what is already an
old story in the West.
''I do not think it quite fair TO say
that the railroads have adopted policy
of refusing grain, Their position is
simply this: they are fully two and
three weeks behind their grain business:
they have large amounts OF grain in ele-
vators awaiting shipment and have
grain cars blockaded, and they feel that
they should make some inroads on the
contracts they already have on hand be-
fore undertaking new ones.
