SECRETARY SHAW MAKES STATE
MENT CONCERNING THE PRO-

Should Purchaser Desire to Use Any
Portion of Purchased Bonds as
Basis for Circulation, Payment
May Be Deferred Until Notes Can
Be Printed and Forwarded.

Washington, D. c., July 2O.-Secre-
tary Shaw has issued the following
statement:
80 many requests have been made
personally, by mail and by wire for in
formation concerning the time when
payment must be made for Panama
bonds purchased at the forthcoming
sale, that the following statement
seems appropriate:
The circular advertisement contains
the statement that bidders will be in
structed as to the time on which pay
ment is desired to be made. The bonds
must, of course, be paid for on demand,
and bidders may, if they desire, pay
Immediately.
Pay Cash or Interest.
IF the bonds are not paid for imme-
diately, bidders will be required to pay
accrued interest. Should any purchas-
err desire to use any portion of the
purchase bonds as a basis for circula-
ton, payment may be deferred, at least
on a portion thereof, until tine notes
can be printed. In such cases the or
der for the currency must be placed at
once and the premium advanced on
the bonds. The accrued interest can
be paid when the bonds are placed
with the treasurer as security for cir
culation. The extent to which this
privilege can be wisely granted will de-
pend on the amount of bonds that may
be desired as a basis for circulation"

Saw With Own Eyes.
I'VE were at the mine long enough
to make a systematic examination"
said one of the gentlemen to a report
er for The Republican, and went to
the lower workings, assuring ourselves
that the copper is there and that it can
be gotten out as rapidly as the concen-
trating plant can handle it. OF course,
it will require some time to get the ma
chinery here and installed, but we shall
lose no time now in making the start,
believing that only in the concentration
of the ore and its shipment to market
will we be able to get back the money
we have put in the mine.
Can Now See Returns.
1--WE believe the money has been
judiciously spent in the development
work, and we further believe that now
we can begin to see a snug return for
all this. The ore is there--we know
this, for we saw it with our own eyes,
The property is n of the best look,
ing propositions we have ever seen

buildings are substantial, the recently
installed air compressor will add to the
efficiency of the plant and the future
of the camp seems assured. DR.. Swi
CART and Mr.. Baker are to be commend
ed at the progress made, and we shall
so report to our interests in the east

the roads to the mine, and when a load
of copper is brought out a load of fue
timber on the property owned by the
company, and this will be used fol
