While the big producing copper companies have materially cut their production because of the low and un5 steady price of copper it is noticeable that there has been practically no re- duction of work the important de velopment propositions in the terri tory. At Globe. the work of devsop- ment On the mines owned by the companies recently organized is nov ing ahead as usual. The same is true in Pima county and in the Dragon mountains and in the Mammoth coun- try. The Calumet and Arizona prop critics. especially, remain active in de velopment, including the Santa Rosa mine below Douglas The energetic pursuance of development work would indicate that the mine owners are not alarmed as to the future Of the red metal and they need not be, as the continued progress of the industry of the country will require more copper in the future than has ever been consumed in the past.

CONDEMNS ATHLETICS
Denver RenuhlicanN


 The current issue of American Meu- icine devotes most of its editorial space to a discussion of athletics and their effect cn human life. The re- suit is not encouraging to those who have been advising young men to go in heartily for all kinds of violent sports. This distinguished medical authority finds nothing to commend in athletics, and much to condemn. It points out that the trained" man tends to aTteriosclerosis. heart dis ease, neurasthenia, alcoholism, drug habits and increased susceptibility to tuberculosis and other infections. Then the editor points out the general use Iessness of tn athlete in the following trms:
 The decreasing need of a great musculature is a point which our uni versailles would do well to keep in mind. Primitive man domesticated certain animals for their muscular power, but modern man has long been inventing mechanical devices to sup plement or replace his own feeble muscles. As civilization advances. the man of intelligence is becoming more of a brain worker, directing the pow CT of machines and the labor of ami mals or the lower races. Consequent ly, a great musculature Is really parasite requiring time and labor 10 keep 1t healthy and also an undue amount of nourishment. Such men are not necessarily the best-indeed, many of them die much earlier than is supposed, for they are physiolog- ical profligates. The digestive system is required to do much work unnec- essary in men of lighter build and n the race of life the least burdened have the advantage Boys are natural Iy proud of muscular development and can usually be depended upon to work 1t up themselves without the un- wholesome stimulation of a gymna- s.um designed for the defective. It does seem as though our college sports were developing muscles be- yond all practical needs of educated men of intelligence"
 From this it would appear that t.e athlete does not belong in the modsin scheme of things-that the super man of the future is more likely to be the "mollycOddle" than the man who hits the football line hard. The ath- lete is working against the forces Of civilization and is. in reality, retard- ing the advance of mankind. Strength should come from cengeEitally sound bodies and outdoor liv.ng-not from work in gymnasiums and on the athle- tis field
 This gives American colleges some thing worth considering. So far. President Eliot Of Harvard .s the only university official with sufficient cour- age to declare in favor of abolishins college athletics as they are carried on today He is supported in his | stand by the best medical authorities ] in the world yet he is not supported by other college presidents. The req son is not far to seek. Colleges today fear to cut off tho advertising benefits they receive through football and oth- CT sports. The football games be tween college teams form far greater advertisements than joint debats be tween the brain'est students of the collges. It is the age of advertising

One lesson of the unfortunate events at Douglas Sunday is that betting has no place in legitimate sport Had not so much money been risked on this game, CT had not talk of money for betting purposes been made so freely, it is possible that neither players nor spectators would have been aroused to that pitch of eX- citement that prompted the fighting or the baseball field, Back east-and it is of course true of the west-no- thing hurts the great national game 1 as such occurrences that took place in Douglas Sunday PeopIe-and this is especially true of the ladies-go to the park to see baseball, the clean. gen tlemanIy game that it is, and not fight. ing and rowdyism.

 When the stringency in money reached a stage where railroads were unable to sell their securities, the largest buyers of copper were obliged to restrict operations and the demand soon fell of radically because of the inability of the transportation com panies to carry on the Improvements they had planned. do not expect to see any radical improvement in the

 The banks that have had to make advances on the bills of lading based on shipments of copper by produc- ing companies through the selling agencies, have been forced to restrict fresh advances until the old loans were taken up. For this reason t2er2 has been a good deal of copper press ing on the market, which I think can now be handled around Is cents, or within l cent of that basis
