GOLD FEVER HAS
STRUCK DISTRICT
Finding of Precious Metal In
Lost Gulch Near Globe
Attracts Attention.

GLOPE, Dec. 30.-The strike Of
gold recently made on a claim be-
longing to Z. +. Kellner in Lost Gulch
is attracting considerable attention
among mining men of the district cad
future developments are being looked
forward to with much eagerness-
Lost Guich has always been favor
tie locality for prospectors suffering
with the gold fever and considerable
money has been expended in the past
to make gold mine in the Gulch.
Either poor management or the abb
sence of pay ore, or possibly both.
have been the cause Of a number OF
failures in that section, which is only
a few miles northwest of Globe.
Mr.. Kellner has started a folSe Of
men to work on his claim and he has
expectations of developing a rich
mine The claim is the Yellow Met
al and is patented. 1t is in the cen.
ter of group of ten claims owened
by Mr. Keilner. Nothing but as
sessment work has ever been done on
it. although on the adjoining claims
considerable money has been ex-
pended. The recent discovery was
made by accident at the top of a
ridge on the Yellow Metal. A ledge
about foot wide was uncovered with
q pay streak in the center OF 1t about
an inch and a half wide. The half
inch in the, center assays $4,000 per
ton and the entire pay streak about
$1,000 a ton.
A tunnel has been begun which at
distance of thirty feet viii cut the

the rate of 71S per cent per annum
ever since 1890: and that includes a
period of severe business depression.
Besides that out exports have in
creased OF nearly 61s per cent each
year
It is perfectly plain that over a
long period of years the demand fer
copper is fully large enough to take
care of the supply and maintain
prices at a reasonable level The sit
uation is that our production has
been increasing at an average rate
of only per cent per annum, our
domestic consumption increases
about per cent per annum, and our
net exports increase about 61s per
cent per annum. Under these con
ditions it is plain that the position Of
the metal in the long run is very
strong. The great factors which ex-
ert the strongest influence upon cop
per prices are bullsh, and the con
sumption of the metal is growing SO

not long remain as low as they are

VERY WELL
History of Production of Red
Metal and Prices Obtained
Shows Favorabsy ?roduc-

A broad view ofth position of the
copper metal shows that it is wond Dr.
fully strong. From 1864 to 1895 cop
per prices in common with other com
modify prices declined. There were
three important factors in this gen
eral decline in commidity priceE;
First. the cost OF production was de-
csining owing 10 improved metno0s
and better machinery Second, the
volume of the worlds capital was
greatly diminished during that period
by five great wars; and that of
course lessened the amount OF money
available for spending and tended to
lower prices. Third, the worlds vol
ume of money increased rather SLOW
ly, and It may be that the per capita
volume did not increase at all: and
that had a slight tendency to make
money as a medium Of exchange
scarce and thus depress prices.
Now, however, ali these depress-
ing influences have been removed.
The cost of production is deeln4Dts
only at slow rate; there have not
been any great wars aside from thai
between Russia and Japan lately; ana
the worlds per capita volume N
money was never so great as it is
now, The essential factors which in
fluence commodity prices in general
and copper prices in particular are
now builish when viewed in a brofI
way. The enormous increase in the
worlds wealth stimulates new enter
prises, and that creates a great de-
mand for copper. Besides that the
electrical industry is probably the
fastest growing industry in the world
today; and the consumption of cop
per grows hand in hand with that Of
tae electrical industry.
Three of the principal uses of cop
per are by light and power stations.
street railways and telephone and
telegraph companies. The census re
ports enable US to get some idea of
the rapidity of the increase in tae
use oF the metal by these three in
dustries. One fact that stands out
very clearly is that during good years
and bad for general business the use
of copper has gone on increasing be-
cause by its use greater economy WAS
secured, expense saved, and profits
increased.
The actual amount of copper used
BY these three industries was OF
z@purse not given, but it can &c pretty
curately judged by the increased

1890 were only 240.142, while III 1902
there were 4,S50,4S6 miles IN use.

TUCSON WEATHER BUREAU.

So far as any effort by any local in
terest can accomplish results, the agi-
tation for the establishment of a
weather bureau station in Tucson has
been entirely successful.
Some time ago Secretary Failor of
the chamber of commerce wrote a
personal letter TO Colonel Willis L.
Moore, chief of the United States
weather bureau in Washington set
ting forth the results which are IA
miliar to all Tucsonians, which seem
to make it a matter of advantage to
the government as well as of local
pride to establish such a station here.
In reply Mr.. Failor has received
the following letter:
December 10, 1907.
Mr.. H. " Failor, Secretary Chamber
of Commerce, Tucson, Arizona.
Dear Sir: In answer to your letter
of the 3rd instant, permit me to say
that if congress restores the authority
for the weather bureau to establish
additional stations, shall take pleas
ure in adding Tucson to a list of a
few places at which. in my opinion,
weather bureau observatories might
be advantageously located. Very truly

so far as the weather bureau is con-

NO INCREASE IN STORAGE
PALoUsE WAREHoUsEMEN WILL
WILL HOLD RATE At LAST
YEARS FIGURE.

PALOtSE, Aug. 12.-Farmers in
the territory adjacent to Palouse are
not to suffer from the raise in handl-
ing and storage charges put iE.to eff
feet by the majority of the warehouse
men in the Inland Empire, and said to
be the result of a combine for the pur-
pose of keeping out the Independent
buyer and controlling the grain mar
ket.
At a meeting of the local buyers a
few days ago it was decided to leave
the rate at the same as it was last
season, and has been for many years.
Receipts will read the same as in the
past no changes being made in the in
surance clause, or any other part Of
the ticket
Before this decision was reached by
the warehousernen there was consider
able dissatisfaction expressed by the
farmers. They are, however, salts
fed to have the conditions imposed by
the warehousemen the same as last
year and no effort will be made to hold
the grain on the farms.

Opinions by Attorney General.

OLYMPIA, Wash, Aug. 1.-THE at
torney generals office in a letter to the
assessor of Benton county holds that
irrigation plants, including county
headgates, fumes, intakes. canals, lat
erals, and pumping stations are as
sessable to the company owning sucn
irrigation property, as real estate, and
the taxes assessed against the prop
erty will remain a lein until paid.
The attorney general has given an
opinion to the secretary of state to the
effect that trust companies and both
foreign and domestic insurance COM
panies are liable for the payment to
the state of the license fee of SIS per
annum as provided in the law of 1907.
Replying to the county superinteIld-
ent of Snohomish county it is held
that board of education does not
have power to condemn and close al
leys and streets adjoining a school
house site, on the ground that ANY
property already devoted to a public
use and held by municipality in it's
governmental capacity could not be
again taken for another public use
without specific authority to do so nav
ing been granted by legislative enact
ment."

BREEDING OF FAST HORSES,

For a good many years past the
readers Of turf journals have been DEL
uged with all kinds Of literatue and
arguments claiming to establish the
fact that "the< only way to produce
champions is to breed the champions"
and that in breeding race horses. the
rule that like begets like" is in
flexible, and hence that no one who
does not possess the sagacity aid
means to breed to the most fashion
able and high priced sire need ever
expect to be known as the breeder OF
sensational race horses. The RECORDS
show that this contention is more plau-
sible and forcible from a theoretical
than a practical standpoint. Since
Lady Suffolk achieved the distinction
of trotting mile in harness below
2:30 in 1S45. many gentlemen OF
wealth and prominence have estab-
lished great breeding plants where
they have accumulated at vast ex-
pense, the best bred animals in sup
posedly speed producing lines that
money could buy. and yet of those

ting turf since the advent of Lady

humble walks of life, and were by
sires and out of dams who had not
prior to those productions been con-
sidered as possessing the fashionable

above facts constitute a most interest
