Copenhagen, Feb. 16.-The body Of

Christianborg church and the route

The windows all along the route
were filed with spectators who paid
high prices for seats. Most Of the
owners of such places Of vantage an

charity, in the name Of King Christian,

Denmark, Greece and Norway, Queen
Alexandra, the dowager empress OF
Russia and other royal relatives Of the

foreign soyereigns reached the Chris

the coffin, covered with the Danish
standard, was borne high by naval and

BERNARD DENIES
LOBBY CHARGES
Blames Hitchcock Of Crookston
for Attacks as to Drain
age League.
BY w. w. Jermane.

Washington, Feb. 10" Attacks on
me and Mr.. Hays for maintaining a So
called lobby at Washington are all due
to hard feeling entertained by Mr..
Hitchcock, former editor Of the Bemidii
Pioneer, and now in temporary charge
of the Crookston Times, in the absence
of it's editor said A. G. Bernard,
president of the state drainage league,
today. Hitchcock is trying to hit
Hays over my shoulders, because of an
investigation Of county printing, for
which he had the contract, which in
vestigation was made by direction of
Governor Johnson.
"The charge is made that fund of
$4,000 has been raised to pay the ex-
penses Of myself and Mr.. Hays here. In
the first place, Hays ism It here and
hash It been here this winter. In the
second place, the total of the cash con-
tributions to the league. is $400, given
by the Minneapolis Chamber of Com
merce. Help has been promised from
other sources, but has not yet been re-
ceived. The league has not had any in
dividual contributions from business
men of the twin cities. One Duluth
commercial organization voted to sub.
scribe $1,000, but afterward reconsid.
cred the vote and the money was never
contributed.
The money which has been contribut.
ed, and has been expended in the pre-.
paratlon of maps, In SOIL analysis, in
travelling expenses around the state
and, partly, for my trip to Washington
which was made at the suggestion OF
members Of the Minnesota delegation
who wanted information on the sub.
ject and didn t have time to 20 into it
thoroly themselves.
Cutlery is made because we didn u
go into the southern part Of the state
and begin campaign for drainage
there, instead Of taking up the subject
in Washington. The time hash It come
for that. We will open that campaign
in the fall, during the political cam.
palgn, when people are talking Of elect
ing members Of the Legislature. That
body doesn It meet until next year. and
anything done now would be fruitless
because the subject would be forgotten
during the summer. We want our mat
ters to be fresh in the public mind
when the legislature meets.
shall give full account of all
contributions at the next meeting of
the league at Wadena, next summer.''

DRY FARMING CONVENTION.

The governor of Colorado has called for Denver, November 20, dry-farm- ing congress. Speaking of the import ance of this congress the Rocky Noun tain News has this to say:
 There are a hundred million acres in the land of little rain which can never be irrigated, which have been esteemed good for nothing but pas turage. and none too good for that. Yet if Professor Campbell is not mistaken, nearly every acre of this vast territory can be made to produce fair crops. If such be the case-and so far all the apartments seem to back up MT. Camp bell-then there is.an empire at our very doors, waiting only the hand of intelligent industry. There is room on our arid lands for twenty million peo- pie, if those lands can be made but half as productive as now seems prob- able"
 Speaking on the same subject the Denver Republican says:
 Great care should be taken. how ever, to avoid giving the convention the character of a land-booming enter prise. The truth about farming on the plains should be told, and it should be presented so clearly that no man or ordinary intelligence would be excus- able were he to misunderstood. The facts concerning the climate of east ern Colorado should not be overlooked. for disappointment awaits any man who tries to farm in that section in the same way that ordinary farming is carried on in eastern Kansas. Iowa or Illinois. Farmers taking up land on the plains between the mountains and the state line should be prepared to adopt the Campbell system or what ever other method may have been shown to be valuable under arid or semi-arid conditions They should also appreciate the importance of employ ing irrigation from wells and storm water so far as may be practicable. Ap- proaching the subject In a proper spirit and discussing it with a sincere desire to arrive at safe conclusion, the pro posed convention can do much good and promote the settlement of the plains region while at the same time 1t enlightens the people concerning the real conditions under which farming may be carried on in that part of the state"
 This is question in which Arizona IS vitally interested, and if the sug-

For Delegate to Congress MARCUS A. SMITH.
AFRAID OF ANDREWS.

There is no life or energy left in the republican party in New Mexico. The party has been dominated by boss and ring rule so long that but few peo- pie care anything about what any po- litical result may be this fall. Certain it is that hundreds, yea thousands, of New Mexico republicans will refuse to vote for "Bulr' Andrews. The fol- lowing from the Albuquerque Journal, the leading republican paper in the territory, shows that the republican party of New Mexico is very near the brink of destruction:
 'To anyone who will take even a casual view of the political situation in New Mexico at this time it will become as plain as the sun at noon day that it is absolutely necessary to the pro- motion of that harmony which is indis- pensable 10 the wellbeing of the re- publican party, if not indeed, to the success of the party at the polls this fall, that something must be done to inspire greater degree of enthusiasm among the rank and file of the party. And it will be equally plain that to accomplish this end we must have a party leader, in the person of the can didate for delegate, who possesses the confidence of the people, and for whose success they can work with earnestness and enthusiasm.
 @Mr. Andrews knows as well as we know that he is not that man. He knows that he does not have the con fidence and esteem of the people to a degree which causes them to rally to his standard with any measure of confidence or enthusiasm. There are hundreds of good republicans who do not hesitate to let it be known that they will not vote for him, and those who are his supporters, are only sup porting him in half-hearted way. be- cause there is no one else in flight" A campaign under such conditions will lead to demoralization, and possibly defeat. Then why not let him step out of the way, and give place to some man who can command the respect and awaken the enthusiasm of the party. thus bringing concord to our Rnks and victory to our standard"

THE GREAT | COPPER INDUSTRY.

At no previous time in the history of the world has the importance of cop per been so generally recognized as at the present time. says the Arizona Min ing Rcvieg. The uses of copper has been multiplied and the supply has also increased rapidly during the past ten or twenty years, but there never has been period where the industrial demands have been as great as they are today. The introduction of electricity into the industrial world has been responsible for a large DOT tion of the demand, and electricity ap- pears as yet to be but in its infancy. Wherever coal is obtainable at cheap price it is still the source of power, but the greater part of the world to- day is not near the coal deposits, and in order to compete with such locali- ties cheap power must be provided. Electricity has solved the problem to great extent. and power can now be delivered hundreds of miles from the base of generation by the aid of cop per metallic circuits. The time is com ing when railroads will be using cleo tricity instead of coal, and still great CT demand will be made upon the cop per producing mines.
 and our neighbors to the north and south possess in almost unlimited quantities the crude copper. So far the copper fields have been scarcely touched Their development has been limsed to comparatively few loca- tions, but with the recognition of the importance of copper has come the general activity in copper mining. The United States holds first place as a copper producer.
 The search for copper has only just begun. The demand is here and the supply must follow. Within the com ing five years some of the largest mines in the world have been opened up. and sending forth their product, while there will be many smaller pro ducers scattered over a wide area. The mines of Michigan are maintain ing their output, bat that state is los ing it's prestige as the leader to Men tana, and Arizona is rapidly coming to the front, and may within five years be ahead of Montana. Utah promises to move rapidly towards the top within a couple of years, while Nevada with the Ely and other cop per districts has great possibilities.

NEW MEXICO WAY AHEAD OF ARIZONA.

The comparative growth and popula-
 ton of New Mexico and Arizora can
 be gauged by the number of postof-
 fees in each territory and the num-
 ber of new postoffices that are being
 established. New Mexico has 445
 postofffces and Arizona has only 260.
 New Mexico has 166 money order of fees and Arizona has 120. New Mex leo has six second class offices and
 Arizona has five. New Mexico has 2S
 more postofiices today than it had on January first Arizona has one post i office less. Arizona's bulk of popula- ton is in mining towns more or less
 ephemeraI, such as Bisbee, Douglas,
 Clifton. Morenci and Globe, while New
 Nexico's bulk of population is settled
 on farms and in small villages and it's larger towns are of a permanent naturel So after all. Arizona has not much to brag about its superiority over New Mexico in wealth, population and future promise The difference be- tween New Mexico and Arizona is that between Massachusetts and Yer

gestions of the Republican shall be carried out, there is nothing, not even the national irrigation problem, which can be so beneficial to this territory as will be this dry farming convention. It is much to be desired, however, that Colorado's governor shall prove him self wiser than did the Rocky Noun tain News. which first suggested the calling of dry farming convention. That paper omitted Arizona from the list of states and territories to be in vited to participate in the convention. Probably the governor win be wiser.
