MINING NEWS.

ford on Mondays train returning
 from a visit to the Stanley Butte
 Consolidated Copper Company's
 property at San Carlos, where he
 had been to inspect the property
 of this company in the interest of the New York stockholders. He was much pleased with the out look and predicts a great future for the camp with the proper develop ment.
 Prescott Courier: The Sycamore Copper company, with property located F miles north of Jerome, has one of the most complete plants in the district. The plant IS 50 horse power, steam. The Sullivan machine drills are used, and tine plant is now supplying power for three shifts, which means that development work on this property never stops. The shaft is now down 245 feet, everything that comes therefrom is heavily mineralized, and in much of 1t copper sulphides can be seen.
 Bisbee Review: The Saddle Mountain Mining Company is in the midst of an extensive increase of its mining and smelling plants and the camp of Christmas is show ing rapid growth, there being now population of about 1000 in the camp. The company is con- structing a narrow guage railroad along the Gila river from the end of the grade of the Southern Pacific railroad to the hill leading up to the camp and from the smelter to the camp hoist tram is be- ing installed, the total distance covered by railway and tram being three miles. About 100 men are engaged in this work at the present time.
 Tucson Post: The Paymaster Consolidated Mines Company is shipping from seventy-five to two 1 hundred tons of high grade silver and lead ore every week. The re- turns from the work are more than paying operating expenses and will 1 be used for the further develop ment of the property which prom ises in the opinion of prominent i mining engineers to be one of the | largest propositions in southern Arizona. Percy Williams, con- sulting engineer for the company, made quick trip this week to the | mines and found everything in good order and the development | work progressing nicely on the lines he has mapped out
 Yuma Enterprise: The mines of central and northern Yuma county will in the ne1r future be creating as great an excitement as the mines of Goldfeld, Nevada. Miners now report that the ledge on which the Mayhew strike was made last winter one mile north of the famous King of Arizona mine, shows for two miles or more across the country. and everywhere it is struck it shows fine values in gold. The Mayhew strike has sold for $350,000, and it is now reported that this property will prove to be the greatest gold mine in Arizona. Now comes the news that last week Felix Mayhew, sole owner of a claim adjoining the original strike, has made sale of this nrnnertv tn

BILE death, what he VIII die Of, and
so on.
The Middle American is a Method
ist. And yet, the author adds. 'if he
rarely misses his Sunday sermon, ne
is even less rarely absent from his
Saturday evening game of pinochle at
the saloon, which waists most of the
dollars put down in the table of his
expenditures as personal expenses" :
The following footnote saves the
author from the dread dangers which
threaten any man who foolishly flirts
with figures:
"To avoid misunderstanding IL
could be stated that Raggers is not a
typical Methodist, but only a repre-
sentative American who happens to
be Methodist methodoligically."

POLICE AND THE LAW.
Q. How onr sIns do ind us ouI

o. How our sins do find us out
There was something extraordina-
rily pernicious in the charter tinker
ing by which the expense sof main
tanning an enlarged police force, es-
tablshed by act of the legislature, was
saddled on the taxpayers Of Paducah,
especially when engineered by repre-
sentatiyes of that party, which has
clung to the theory of local self-gov-
eminent as a fetish after losing ev-
cry other attribute of its ancient
self. And, now, we see the Democrat
ic press throwing this fact into the
face of the police department in re-
Duke for alleged ineficiency, and
one candidate for mayor coming out
on platform, advocating a closed
town and the repeal of the amend
ment.
We feel that Col. Joseph e. Pot
ter has incorporated too many mis-
fit planks in his platform for success,
but we accord him this one COM
mendation-he is the first candidate
for the Democratic nomination for
mayor to state his position, and the
only one, who thus far has intimated
an intention to let the people know
where ne stands
Categorlcally Col Potter stands
for the enforcement OF the laws;"
"the closing of all lawiess Places"
"the repeal of the amendment to
the charter. compelling Paducah to
have so policemen"
Somehow the conviction steals
over us when we read this that some
Democrats believe the city is wide
open, and that it has come to Col.
Potter's ears that all Democrats do
not like the 80 policemen act. It is
also deduclble from Col Potter's
first three planks, that he thinks
some OF his opponents before the pri-
mary are for wide open town. And
here's a hint for some of the others
TO announce their positions on mu-
nicipal questions.
There is. too. a relation between
the first three planks of Col. Potter's
platform and the police department.;
because It was repeatedly asserted
by the Democratic press that the Re
publican general council had Grip
pied the police force. and that an ep-
idemic of 1awlessness was fostered
by this condition. All criticisms OF
open saloons were met with the an
swer that the depleted police force
was unable to patrol the city.

minimum established at the behest
of the men at the head of the police
department, mas been on duty two,

Mayfield, KY, March Ia man
who lives south of the city and
whose name is withheld by request,
was in the city Wednesday and told a
reporter that on the Sunday evening
that the party who was burned in a
boarding house on West Broadway
was from Paducah, that he was at the
depot in Paducah, and that the man
who afterwards was burned, said to
some men who were standing around,

several went and drank with him,
and he told them that he was going
to Mayfield, and one man in the
crowd said that he would come with
him. He says they got on the train.
and that the next morning, the man
who came out with him went back
in buggy, and stopped at house
near Paducah and ate his breakfast
and paid for it out of a five dollar
bill, and that the horses were much
fatigued. He says the farmer at
whose house the party got breakfast
on Monday morning. knew the man
and knew that It was the same man
who came to this city with the party
on Sunday evening that was burned
in the fire. For reasons of his own
he refused to tell the name of the
parties, but said that he had told the
proper authorities.

TARIFF REVISION.

John Sharp Williams cannot write
even about solemn subject like the
tariff without indulging his propen-
sity for plantation humor. Imagine
the shocked expression that must
have pervaded the genteel face of his
excellency the governor of Massa-
chusets, when he came upon this
passage in letter to aim from Mr..
Williams upon the petition OF the
general court to the source of wisdom
at Washington praying for revision:
"In my opinion, you might just as
well look to a bald-headed barber for
an effective hair restorer as to look
to the Republican party for any re-
vision of the tariff in the direction of
freer trade relations with the world" =
Gov. Guild is enlisted for the war.
of course-free hides, free coal and
lall those things in which the honor
able and progressive business men
of Massachusetts, are Interested but
las a high toned Republican this
tonsorial smile at the expense of
the organization by an unpublished
Southern Democrat must almost
have convinced him that the tariff
was local and not party issue.
At the same time. tradition and
fealty aside, the governor may have
derived more satisfaction from the
blunt opinion of Mr.. Williams upon
revision than from the empty COM
pliments of his great and good friend
at Washington. The Democratic
leader claimed copyright so far as
the house of representatives was con-
cerned, upon the idea of a maximum
and minimum tariff. But, he said:
GAS the doctrine is sought to be
managed by Mr.. McCleary, Senator
Lodge and others, 1t is, / take It, a
new one to everybody. If Senator
Lodge takes the same view of it that
Representatives McCleary, Cannon
and Dalzell do, and have understood
that he does, namely: That the
minimum tariff should be the present
law and that maximum tariff should
be something larger by an agreed
percentage"
Mr.. Williams would have the
present tariff stand as the maximum
and revise downward, applying the
maximum rates to imports from coun
tries discriminating against us and
letting down the bars to countries
that legislate in reciprocity, and
against punitive retaliation.
When Mr.. Williams introduced the
doctrine of maximum and minimum
tariff to the house of representatives
is not generally known, but the date
of the presidents announcement on
it is no mystery. He commended it
to congress in his message in Decem-
Der, 1905, but was not desperately
in earnest about the matter. This
was his language:
ut should be considered whether
it is not desirable that the tariff laws
should provide for applying as against
or in favor of any nation maximum
and minimum tariff rates establish
ed by the congress, so as to secure a
certain reciprocity or treatment be-
tween other nations and ourselves"
Since that time Mr.. Roosevelt has
not troubled himself apout the tariff,
and his letter to Gov. Guild implies
that revision is a "closed incident" so
far as his administration is concern
ed. Whether he is for Cannon maxi
mum rates and Dingiey minimum
rates must remain hidden from the
general intelligence as long as rail-
road supervision engages his atten-
ton to the exclusion of tariff re-

Now, listen to the Democra
e organ OF last Wednesday:
Considerable complaint is
heard from those who leave on
the Sunday train for Mayfield
of the boisterousness and intox-
icated condition or many OF the
passengers, who. having spent
Sunday in Paducah, are return
ing home, having unmlstakable
evidence OF the fact that they
had been able to secure intoxica-
ting liquor while in Paducah.
The Mayheld Messenger has
frequently made reference to
this. and it Is beyond our under
standing where they can pur-
chase these liquid refreshments.
Our police force is sufficient to
discover II any saloons are open.
OF course this is pre-
cautionary and we wish this
warning to be sounded broad
cast for the protection of the
law-abiding and reputable sa-
loon keepers. We are pleased to
state that we have many in our
community, but at the same
time, there are no doubt a few
who have not the slightest re-
gard for law and order and keep
open, and when these saloons
are discovered the policeman on
said beat is evidently not giving
the proper attention to his du-
ties and should be promptly dis
missed. There can be no valid
excuse for the sale OF liquor on
Sunday In Paducah, and no vail
i'd excuse II same is not prompt
ly discovered by our police force.
