The Republicans OF West Virginia
are IN a position to be enyIed. 1t is
now one year before the important
State elections will occur and even at
this time there is an activity and a
hustle among the Republicans Of the
State which shows that they are alive.
But what is more encouraging still is
the fact that there is a generous sun.

Root and Cortelyou. Speaker Cannon,
Governor Hughes. Senator Knox and
some others have been spoken Of, but
from all that can be gathered as to
the true. situation 1t seems to us that
Judge Taft is by far In the lead Of
all the rest. He Is in the lead over
President Roosevelt for two reasons,
namely. the President has said he
would not under any circumstances ac-
cept the nomination. and there Is a
large, conservative element OF the par
ty that prefers the big secretary to the
strenuous Teddy. There Is no mis-
taking that fact, there Is no use trying
to side step 1t. Whether Justly or IN

too rapidly and too rough shod when he
gets the reins in his hands and the

occasions. Many people who we're

OF the erratic Bryan leadership do not

the world and there would be such i,
united Amen go up from all to the
throne Of God. that would shake the
trembling gates of hell. Another thing
about the fathers was they never ask
ed the church to grant them yac..
ton to take pleasure trip, leaving
the vineyard Of the Lord under the
control Of the devil. I never knew, Il
case Of that kind in the days Of the
fathers, but now 1t Is a common thing
among the preachers and In some
places the churches are closed during
The summer months. Did the devil
ever take vacation? never heard
Of him doing so. He is always at hIs
post, seeking who he may devour.
There is no comparison between the
labors Of the fathers and the preachers
OF to-day. They had poor churches,
bad roads to travel, lived on coarse
fare and many times had poor beds to
sleep in and poor pay. Yet they ney.
err stopped to rest, but 1t Is different
now. How Is 1t now with those who
have been called by the college and
university to preach? We have fine
churches and parsonages and they are
well paid for all they do, and still to
a great extent is dead and conformeI

THE USES OF COPPER.
Denver Mining Reporter


The average man. II asked to
name, off-hand, the uses of copper,
would be likely to reply that the
metal was used mainly for coming
pennies and making wire. yet these
uses employ more than a quarter of
the copper that is produced. On sec
ond thought he might smile al nam
ing copper coinage as an important
consumer OF the metal, yet his first
thought would be nearer right than
his second, for the Chinese empire
has used $4,000 tons OF copper for
making new coins within the past
two years, thereby increasing the cir
culating medium Of the country to
the extent OF ounces for each in
habitant--for while $4,000 tons of
copper Is large quantity OF metal,
sufficient to load 1000 freight cars
OF the heaviest type used on Amer
ican railroads. 1t is but a quarter OF
an avoirdupois pound per capita
when divided among 400, 0OO, 900
people.
Only the experts or those engaged
most actively in the copper industry
have the slightest idea of the diversi-
lied uses to which copper is put, as
shown by chapter on the uses of
The metal In the new edition OF the
Copper Handbook published by
Horace j. Stevens OF Houghton, Mich.
According to this book copper enters
nto almost every form of human
lctivity, and the multiplicity OF its
lses is most surprising. Electric
light, power and traction are i'm
nense consumers OF the metal in the
orm Of wire. and telephones and
elegraphs find 1t indispensable, yet
lectricity requires only trifle more
han quarter of the metal made.
he engineering trades consume more
han half Of all the copper produced,
1ainly In the form of brass, but there
re about score Of friction metal3
nd alloys, each having its specific
Sc. into which copper enters as a
omponent part.

THE LOCAL MARKET
Snow Storm Slumps--Trading Is
Still Small

The continued and senseless
slump in Snow Storm was the
feature Of the local market this
week though as usual most Of the
slumping was done in Spokane.
Why holders Of that stock should
even contemplate selling at the
offered prices will always be a
mystery to the Miner and it is a
safe bet that among them are no
regular readers Of this paper, be-
cause we have kept them too well
posted on the value Of the Snow
Storm and the copper situation in
general to permit Of their being
stampeded into sacrificing their
holdings.
Trading throughout the whole
list was trifing, the public appar-
emily having made up its mind to
ascertain positively that the mar
ket has touched bottom before it
makes any more investments. The
Miner would beg to point out, how
ever, that prices are now so low
that the public, by holding off
longer, is taking the gravest
chances OF not getting in near the
bottom.
