The precious metal production and
also that of tungsten shows slight
falling off this year, compared with
last, due in the case of precious metals
to the fact that only the high-grade ore
has been sent to the smelter from
many of the biggest producers OF the
county, while the low-grade has been
retained to be treated by the several
new mills that are now nearing compile
tion. On this account, the average
value of the ore shipped from Boulder
county this year has jumped from
$27.30 in 1905 to $5120 in 1906.
The coming year promises a record
breaking production. The many big
mills which are nearing completion,
which have been built after exhaustive
tests, have demonstrated their adapta-
bility to the ore and will increase the
production several fold.

mill, on South Boulder, will commence

mage; the Wano fifty-ton cyanide mill,
at jamestown, will be in operation in
side Of the next thirty days; the fifty
ton cyanide mill of the Inter-Ocean
company will be ready for ore in about
ninety days, and about the first of July
the 100-ton concentrating mill on the
Boulder County mine will be in opera
ton. At Magnolia ground is being
groken for a twenty-five-ton mill, and
at Sugar Loaf work on a twenty-ton
mill will commence the first of the
year. At Ward two new mills are pro-
jected and it is said work will com.
mence within the next thirty days.

Iron and Steel Production.

The Colorado Fuel and Iron Com
pany. as the largest producer of coal
and iron in the state, has enjoyed the
complete restoration of normal work
ing conditions in Colorado more largely
than any other concern. Its entire
works have felt the inspiration of new
equipment and general improvements.

Big Advance in Stocks.

Since October 1, 1906, there has been
a tremendous advance in Cripple Creek
stocks ranging from fifteen to sixty
per cent. There are twelve incorpor-

close corporations paying regular
monthly or quarterly dividends, and all
of these companies have such ore re-

the statement that these dividends will
be forthcoming for an indefinite period.

piseoverer Of the Shot Tower.

A mechanic named Watts of Bris-
tol, England, used to make shot by
pounding out bars of lead into
sheetsof the required thickness and
then cutting the sheets into little
cubes, which he rolled in barrel
until the corners were worn off by
the friction. One night he dreamed
that he was out when it began to
rain shot, little balls of lead falling
all about him. He remembered his
dream the next morning and won-
dered what shape molten lead would
take if allowed to fall some distance
through the air. To determine this
he carried a ladleful of the metal
up to the top of a church tower and
dropped it into the moat below.
Going down, he took from the shall
low water several handfuls of per
feet shot. Thus came to him the
idea of the shot tower.

RIGHT CONCLUSIONS.

The tariff gives no man or
set of men any advantage what
ever over any other man or set
of men engaged in the same
business: Therefore the tariff
is not ''class legislation.
Standard Oil, mergers, pools
and combinations formed by
transportation companies do not
receive any benefit from protect
i've tariff legislation. Such mo-
nopolies, trusts and combinations
abound in countries having no
protective tariff law: Therefore
it is not true that protection is
the mother Of trusts" :"
1t is true that protection has
always been attended by general
prosperity and free-trade or
tariff for-revenue-o only legislation
has always been closely followed
by depression, panic, disaster and
widespread distress: Therefore
experience bids us cling to pro-
lection.
The Republican party is the
only party favoring the primo iple
of protection: Therefore all pro-
tectionists should support the
tariff laws formulated by that
party.
The principle of prote~ ON
must be preserved: Therefore
when tariff revision is under
taken it must be under direction
of the friends of protection.
Those who deny these conclu-
sions are free-traders and tariff
for-revenue men whatever else
they may claim to be.

PROBABLY MISTAKEN,

Bishop Thoburn Of the Metho-
dist Episcopal church gives, as
his deliberate opinion, that this
country will be overrun, in a few
years, by swarms of Oriental
peoples.
The Bishop, it is generally
known, has been engaged in mis-
sionary work, chiefly in the Ori-
ent, for upward of fifty years,
and is garded as high author
ity concerning the character,
ambitions and methods Of the
Orientals. He does not speak as
an alarmist. On the contrary
he thinks no { niger threatens
this country for there is plenty
of labor here for all who come.
Whether they are peril to us or
not depends upon ourselves, he
believes. "We must either lift
them up or they will carry us
down." he says.
Strange enough, the Bishop
finds nothing denoting a fixed
purpose and unity of action on
part of these races to swarm to
ana overrun this country. All
those he conversed with said they
were here on their own volition
and simply seeking their own
betterment. This induced the
good Bishop to look in another
direction for an explanation of
the phenomenon. He says: "A
new era has dawned and God is
to send the benighted of other
lands to this country for uplift-
ing"
1t is to be hoped the Bishop is
mistaken. Surely he must be.
We Rad the Indians to begin
with; the Negroes then came;
then followed the Chinese and
the Filipinos all heathens-to
say nothing Of a mighty host of
benighted Christians we have
imported from the continent and
southern Europe. We have a
big job Of uplifting on our hands
at present and would take it
most unkindly if God should un-
load swarms of benighted Orient
ais upon us just now. In fact
we do not believe God will COM
nit any such an egregious blund-
er. He probably sees we have
made a sorry mess of the up
lifting business already entrust-
ed to us and will wait until we
make good" before giving an
additional and large supply of
raw material to work up.
1t is true We have made a
good many good Indians" and
a few good Negroes, but they
have usually died in the process,
and the survivors have not been
much benefited by our attempts
to uplift these races.
We are skeptical as to whether
or not God will set the seal Of
His approval on our work along
this line by giving us greater
opportunities to practice our
peculiar methods of uplifting and
outstanding the benighted al
ready within our borders.
Bishop Thoburn must be mis-
taken. We might sooner believe
that if God contemplates sending
swarns Of IIindus here it is for
the purpose of uplifting US, rails
ing US out of the mire Of selfish
ness, commercialism, self-right-
eousness, hgotry aud inconsis-
tency III which these astute
people see US WaIlowing while
asking them to cast away their
heather and accept our christian
religion.
Many Of these come here, and
many more will doubtless follow,
from time to time. They come
to observe our life, our social,
industrial and political life and
institutions. They are looking
