The situation is we'll instanceI in the case of the Mansfield copper mines, where the richest ore yet encountered is being taken up from the lowest level of the Black Cap shaft, and where underground operations in the shape of cross cuts, drifting and stoping are prov ing up the whole property beyond the best anticipations of those who undertook the starting of the en- terprise, but little over a year ago. In fact, the progress of this com pany is regarded among practical mining men as but little short of phenomenal, and as a real triumph for modern scientific mining meth ods. The main shaft of the Mans field has now reached a depth of nearly 300 feet, and the crosscut from this shaft at the 250-foot lev el is nearly fifty feet in length.

MINING NEWS.

Benson Pfess: Gnelps- Dodge &
 Co., have made large sales of copper
 for September and October delivery
 at 18c., and today the Bisbee Re-
 view prints q statement from Wal.
 fer Douglas that no men will be
 laid off, and the mines will go on
 producing the red metal to their
 full capacity.
 Arizona Star: Recently num-
 Der of Phoenix parties are having location work done on claims in the coal field abont 90 miles north of Benson, not far east of the San
 Pedro river. They have struck good coal in nearly all the discov- cry shafts. Fifty quarter sections have been taken up, and there is about three times as much land of approximately the same quality still unclaimed. Fifteen miners are at work, the shafts being sunk ten feet, and have struck a good quality of coal at depth of five feet below the surface. It is giving satisfaction for blacksmith work.
 International American: It was stated at the depot this morning by Train Dispatcher McCallum that. notwithstanding the idleness of three furnaces at the Copper Queen shelter, the receipts of ore from Bisbee had not materially dimin- ished. Two regular ore trains are running daily between Douglas and Bisbee. It Is understood that the Queen will employ part of their miners in development work dur ing the period of reduced produc- ton at the shelter, and it is likely that ore shipments will be dimin- ished in the near future in case there is no early agreement reached between the copper producers and consumers as to a staple price.
 Benson Press: Last Monday Mir. Lew Roche left at the Press office samples of copper ore showing chlorotile and red oxide in por- phyrytic schist or shale. Mr. Roche said he had discovered ledge of this ore cropping out at the surface from twenty-five to 100 feet wide and 5000 feet long, on his group of claims about Is miles northwest of Benson, west of the San Pedro riv- CT, in the Little Rincon mountains. The remarkable fact about Mir. Roche's find is that it runs across the trail he has used for years in walking back and forth between his camp and the vein where he did the discovery work and has for years been doing annual assessment work.
 Tucson Citizen: Another rich strike has been made in the mine of the Arichise company, north of Stafford. Last week a six-foot vein, running rich in gold, silver, and copper, was uncovered. Yesterday, while driving a crosscut, a ledge 0. high grade gold ore was encoun- tered. Three feet have been driven on the vein, but its width as yet cannot be determined. Assays from the six-foot ledge show values aggregating $7O, and it is thought the new strike will run better than $lOO in gold, with small values in silver and copper. Superinten- dent Carpenter has confirmed both Of the strikes, which have occa- stoned great excitement in local mining circles.

PLATFORMS AND PARTIES.

Political platforms are the declara-
can no more be dispensed with than
parties themselves. In every election
campaign there are presented candi-
dates and issues. Without a formal
definition of issues an election would
be unmeaning. except as a mere choice
between the personalities of candidates.
The adoption of the system of nomi-
nations by primary does not necessa-
rily do away with platform resolutions.
but merely changes the mode of ex-
pressing the party sentiment and of
defining the party policy. The system
cannot degenerate into a mere turn
ing put of one set of ofice-holders to
make place for another set. That kind
of an election would find. many absen-
tees from the polls.
Ours is a government by party, not
by individuals The party is respon-
sible for the acts of government and
for the actions of public officials. 1t
is thus that when government is bad
and the public officials incompetent or
corrupt that the party is turned out
of power in order that better govern
ment and better officials may be had.
The scheme of government by party
obtains in all countries that have rep
.resentative institutions. It is only
more pronounced in the United States
than in any other because we are a
pure democracy.

MARTIN For LEADER.

1t is c%reditable to the Essex Assembly
delegation that it's members stand tor
gether for an Essex candidate for the
House leadership, and that the ablest
and best experienced man of the delega-
cation should be chosen. 1t is credita-
BILE likewise that the delegation has not
sought to secure the salaried positions
in the gift of the House majority at the
sacrifice of that which is calculated to
appeal to the pride of party voters in
Essex. There have been times when
our Essex delegation bartered its
chances for the speakership for the
sake of a few official leshpots.
William Parmenter Martin. of the del
egation, is easily the best man of the
majority of the House to act as leader,
and the chances as revealed at Trenton
yesterday seem to favor him. There are
logical reasons, too, why he should be
selected. The Republican organization
has not yet recovered from the family
strife that distracted 1t in North Jer-
sey for so long, and the leadership for
Mr.. Martin would go far to heal it's
scars.

Get-Rich-slor Ia snfer.

The g~et-rich-quick idea will not down.
People still seem willing to risk their saw
ings on a basis that necessarily and noto-
rlously implies risks; and as long as they
are willing so to do, reckless men will bid
for the use of their money and offer tempt
ing bats for 1t. If all goes we'll, the
scheme works; but it is intrinsically a
gamble. Then, when the contrary tide sets
in, people scramble for their money, n If
lucky enough to get it they lock 1t up in
safety deposit boxes, or teapots or old
stockings, to the everlasting detriment of
the reputable business of the country. If
only people could understand the prefer
able character of smaller, but steadier and
safer, profits on idle cash, we should have
less difficulty Of this kind and less panicky
boarding IS a result of the crash. Hoard
ing money is the equal and opposite reac-
ton to hazarding it on a gamblers chance,
and each extreme is unwise and detri-
mental.-Lowell Courier Citizen.

LOCAL OPTION A QUESTION.

Local option looms up as a leading
question before the Legislature next
winter, and 1t may attain the inn
portance that the Bishops bill did In
the Legislature of 1906.
For actual prohibition for the whole
State there is no appreciable sentiment.
The Prohibitions vote each year does
not equal the Socialist vote. But there
is a very strong local sentiment in
favor of a law granting the right to
municipalities to vote upon the ques-
ton Of prohibition within their own
borders.
AS a rule the suburban counties favor
such a law, not because the people are
total abstainers, but because they
want to keep their suburbs free from
saloons. In the rural counties gen.
orally the same sentiment exists.
Under the county local option act of
1888. five counties adopted prohibition,
I'm wv " eiiOii' iAoheolooh "hu W"t-
rem, are Democratic counties.
In the urban counties, such as Essex,
Hudson, Camden and Passaic, the pre-
vailing sentiment is opposed to prohi-
bition. and this sentiment is uppermost
also in Atlantic and possibly in Mon
mouth. by reason of the seacoast re-
sorts, which would be ruined by prohi-
bition. Municipal local option, how
ever, would be largely adopted in all
these counties. and, no doubt, if local
option was made fractional Cor wards
of cities, a number of Newark wards
would 'go dry"

SOME DOUBLE HOLIDAYS.

There will he three double holidays
next year. as Washington's Birthday,
Memorial Day and the Fourth of July
will all fall on Saturday. In the fol-
lowing year also there will be double
holidays, as Washington's Birthday oc-
ours on a Monday and Memorial Day
and Fourth of July on a Sunday, to be
celebrated on Monday. Christmas also
will fall on a Saturday in 1909, so that
there will be four double holidays in
that year,
One advantage to people of the double
holiday is hat it affords opportunity
and leisure for visits out of town, and
for short trips to those who desire the
outing. A single day gives little time
for going and returning and tbs effort
is usually attended by fatigue. Ameri-
cans are not a holiday people, and the
strenuous American life demands more
frequent and more prolonged holiday
seasons.

FOR DEEP WATERWAYS NOW.

Waterway bills galore will pour
into Congress in the first week of its
session. she principal projects being a
deep channel in the Mississippi Valley,
from Lake Michigan to the Gulf. and
the canaiization of the Atlantic coast
from Massachusetts to North Carolina,
Tuesday of next week the Atlantic
deep waterway conference will meet at
Philadelphia to further consider plans
for an Atlantic coast canal system.
New Jersey, which is largely interested
in this proposed system. will be repre-
sented in the conference.
The danger is that with so many
the people of the Atlantic coast shall
combine with the people of the Mis-
momentum will carry both great prof.
ects through Congress and insure a
deep waterway from Lake Michigan
to the Gulf, and a canal from Massa-
chusetts Bay to North Carolina by
uniting and deepening the waterways
that traverse the coast. Immediately
after the opening of the session of
Congress the National River and Har-
Dor Congress will meet at Washington.
This congress will advocate an annual
appropriation bill of $50, 900, 900. If Con-
gress shall indeed sanction the two
projects and appropriate mounts for
the preliminary work the enterprises
win go through.

And, of course, no needless torture.

To a house Of mourning. find
More disaster, sad and shocking,

Stark and lifeless there-but then,
There was one consoling feature,
He was three score years and ten.
When a mans that old and feeble

And, moreover, Mr.. Skorcher
Pays the undertaker's bill.
Bells are tolling In the steepler
There's another victim dead.

Can they not be comforted
As they mark he solemn tolling
And the rumbling of the bells?
Is there not some thought consoling
That their monody compels2

Shattered parts are soaring stilD,
And the heirs of Richley Skorcher
