SUPPLY OF MEERscHAuM.

The articles recently published in
Daily Consular and Trade Reports
concerning the exhaustion of the sup
ply of meerschaum in Europe have
ELECTED the following contribution
from A. F. Collins OF New York as to
deposits Of the article in the south
western part OF the United States:
"Meerschaum. so highly priced by
pipe manufacturers. and which has
heretofore come from Turkey, in Asia
Minor, has recently been found in New
Mexico, and the extreme scarcity
which has characterized its produc-
ton during the past few years will.
from present indications, soon be at an
end. The mines are located in the
miles northwest of Pinns Altos, to
which branch of the Santa F'e rail-
road runs from Deming. There have
been stripped two true assure veins,
continuous for 1900 feet each, In
which there is carried between strong
-ay defined walls meerschaum in widths
of 20 inches. All of the veins appear
ing are vertical in position and give in
Sdisputable evidence that they were
formed through the splitting apart of
volcanic congiomerate, a theory still
further confirmed by the blowouts and
deposits afioat that have been thus far
discovered, and finally by the fact that
{ Kidneys of pure meerschaum in vari-
GUS sizes are now obtainable from this
surface material. although it has been
subjected to the decomposing effects
of elements, impregnatioQ of vegetable
matter and the seepage of other min
erals in solution into it for centuries
"A wagon road is now being built
from the mines to Pinos Altos, a dis
tance of 20 miles. and when this is
completed the meerschaum will be
marketed"
Consul e. L. Harris supplies the fol-
lowing information concerning the
mining and expectation of meerschaum
from Asiatic Turkey:
"Meerschaum is native product of
Asia Minor. In raw condition 1t Is
soft, light and nontransparent. The
color is white. with an occasional
blending of yellow. red or gray and is
dug up in nuggets. some of which are
of enormous size. The meerschaum
district In Asia Minor extends from
the town of Eslischehr. on the Anato-
liam railway line. almost due eastward
to the city of Angora. The diggings
are about 10 hours by camel train
from the railway station, and, as might
be expected, the conditions of labor
are very primitive. No capitalists thus
tar have taken the matter In hand.
Lewiston evening teller. [volume] (Lewiston, Idaho) 1903-1911, 1907-06-24

Every digger. therefore, works indie
pendentIy and ON his own account. The
government demands is per cent as a
tax on the quantities which are re-
moved from the field
"The most of the meerschaum Of
Asia Minor finds its way to Vienna,
where it is used almost exclusively in
the manufacture of pipe heads and ci-
gar holders. From Vienna these prod
ucts are sent to every country in the
world, the best qualities going to
America and France. In recent years,
however, fashion and competition have
done much to injure the Austrian ex-
port trade in meerschaum pipes, and
indirectly the output of meerschaum
in Asia Minor. The increase of the
consumption of cigars and cigarettes
in such countries as Germany and the
schaum pipe to a secondary place.
Then, again, sweet brier and other
hard woods, especially a certain kind
produced in Australia, have had the
effect to increase the competition on
meerschaum. In recent years meer-
schaum industry has also sprung up in
the United States, where, according to
reports, many emigrant Austrian cut
ters and polisbers are doing well. This
has also had the effect of greatly re-
ducing the exports to the United
States. Fifteen years ago so per cent
of the meersehaum exports from vi
emma went to the United States, but
Germany has since supplanted Ameri-
ca as Austria's best customer.
Owing to the difficulty of getting
exact figures or statistics in Turkey, it
is impossible to estimate the quanti-
ties and value of the meerschaum sold
each year In home and foreign mar
kets. From Austrian sources, however,
learn that the exports to that coun-
try in 1891 amounted to $246,00O. At
present these exports amount to only
about $150.OOO. The exports of meer-
schaum articles from Austria to other
countries in 1891 amounted to $115,-
600, but this has gradually decreased
until at present only about 100000
worth finds its way to foreign coun-
tries.

NOW THE LINE OF DEFENSE.

Interest in the great trial at Boise
will center this week in the opening Of
the trial for the defense. The state has
spent several weeks in piling up cor
roboration of the startling testimony
given by Orchard. It now remains for
the defense to meet this, point by
point, and clear the defendant from
the implication of guilt that the state
has woven about him.
The line OF defense will be outlined
in the opening address that will be
made public today. and what can be
CLEANED from the REORGANIZATION Of
witnesses leads to the assertion that in
great measure the defense will seek
to impeach the testimony of the states
leading witness It is announced, in
addition to this. that the defense will
set up counter claim that the defend
ant is himself the victim of a con-
spiracy. the object Of which is to over
throw the organization known as the
Western Federation OF Miners.

BUILDING UP HOME INDUSTRY.

Great as the United States Is In the
line of it's manufactures, it is always
reaching out after opportunities to in
crease its industries and to add to the
pay roll of it's mills and mines. The
value of home market is well inn
pressed upon those who have the
framing OF. our industrial growth and
its future prosperity.
AS an example of the activities of
the government in this line are the
daily consular and trade reports that
are sent to the bureau of manufacture
of the department of commerce and
labor. The activity of the men IN con-
sular life is incessant, and their re-
ports contain an immense amount of
matter that is of value to the manu-
facturer and the capitalist seeking for
opportunity to exploit some new field.
They give the condition of the present
state Of trade and the present volume
of trade and suggestions as to what
might be done to increase trade or
build up new industries.
A recent report from one of the con-
sular stations in India will show the
scope and value of this work. The
special topic of this report is the state
and development of the jute industry.
and the figures are interesting as well
as instructive. The report says:
ut might be well to consider the
fact that we are sending to India $21,-
921,941 annually for bags and cloth
that might be made at home We are
receiving articles that are rpade by the
cheapest paid labor on earth, and
which could be made by mill labor in
the United States. We are buying ST.
7ST,4s5 worth of raw jute annually and
manufacturing 1t into cloth. Why not
manufacture it into cloth and bags?
This would give additional employ
ment to our own people and keep the
profits at home.
'It would be still better to encourage
the growth of ramie on the lands go
ing to waste in the Philippines, where
that fiber can be successfully culti-
waited. Thus we would be absolutely
independent in respect to bags for use
in handling our -four, wheat, corn.
oats and other commodities. Since the
process Of cheaply degumming ramie
has been discovered there seems to be
no longer any excuse for holding back
in the cultivation of ramie on an ex-
tensive scale"

A sure indication that American
prosperity is still rampant is the an
that the annual rush of
American tourists is unprecedented
this year. 1t is estimated that millions
will be spent in Europe by tourists
from America this year, where thou
sands were spent before. Prosperity
is responsible for it. The people have
the money and can afford to go to
Europe. Many farmers have Joined the
throng, and Kansas adds the climax
by the statement that an editor Of a

that it deserves front-page double
