J. A. DAVIES WRITES
ENTHUSIASTICALLY
OF BUCKSKIN

Taking vacation of few weeks
finally drifted into Buckskin. l am
greatly surprised at its wonderful copper
bodies. Butte is proclaimed worldwide
as the greatest copper camp on earth.
And it is --next to Buckskin. Here they
have everything they have in Butte, and
more. The Buckskin camp is little more
than one year old and steadily increasing
in size. It's pioneers are Californians
and fasteners. The Butte copper zone
is all within an area of three miles at its
maximum. The Buckskin copper zone
has an area of twelve miles long and ten
miles wide.
Butte in twenty-five years has pro-
duced nearly two billions of dollars in
copper, Butte, today, is one of the most
up-to-date cities in the country. Its
schools are unsurpassed and it's people
happy and contented. Butte made pos
sible, DAILY, Clark and Heinze men
whose perspicacity placed them in the
forefront of the copper kings of the
whole world.
Buckskin lies 225 miles east of Oak
land as the crow flies. Within it's sphere
there lies untold billions of precious
metal stumbled upon Is months ago by
Kennedy a prospector.
gold camp and copper camp, in
ratio to each other, are as an auto and a
draft horse in speed. A gold camp is a
get-rich quick propositions; copper
camp is slow-get-rich proposition, but
the more lasting. To illustrate: The
copper mines of Mexico in one zone,
have been worked continuously for one
thousand years. The Rio Tinto mine in
Spain was worked 1000 years ago by the
Romans and is still The life of gold
camp is one generation, about rs years.
am endeavoring to give facts about
this wonderful copper camp. 1t is not
written for job-stocking purposes or a
fairy tale of gigantic size. Far be it
from my purpose to inflict any tale of
fiction on gullible public. am here
on the ground and have personal ac-
uuaintance with Senator Clark and F.
Augustus Heinze and knew Marcus DAILY
when living. These giants of the cop
per world pinned their lives and fortunes
on Butte and won out When renowned
biologists said that Butte was silver
zone and that her mines would frazzle
out at depth of 500 feet, these men of
acumen said they did not believe it, and
spent millions of dollars demonstrating
to the world that they had the best
known copper leads in the worlds his
tory. The results which they gained
have been the wonder of the world.
The great Anaconda mine is now being
worked at depth of $500 feet and the
Amalgamated Copper company is now
making preparations to go down one

"Criminaloids" a Menace.

new word has been coined to fit a
class OF persons which has come TO be
recognized as existing and which here
tofore has been without satisfactory
or descriptive name. Edward Ais

Monthly, says that immunity enjoyed
by the perpetrator Of new sins has
brought into being a class fer which
we may coin the term 'criminaloid "
AS a PREDATORY explanation for the
bringing into being of this new term.
Mr.. Ross says the prosperous evil
doors that bask undisturbed in popular

wickedness. They avoid doing things
which society hold and has held for
centuries to be wrong. But they pros

CHICAGO LETTER.

Chicago, Feb. 15.-WHEAT-Bear
have had control Of the situation ali
during the session. There was a lib
eral selling pressure apparent at all
times both for long and short ac-
counts. The shipments from Argen-
tine Were the largest in years, being
over four millions. This was used as
the bear argument on the market. 1t
induced considerable selling by the
longs who bought upon the bulge Of
yesterday. Weather conditions through
out the winter wheat belt ideal; cash
demand rather disappointing. The
market closed with a net loss of al
most cent for the day.
CORN-Ruled frmer regardless Of
the weakness in the leading market
The buying was mostly by the same
bull party who have been unusually
successful on the bull side Of the mar
ket The selling was mostly for the
account Of elevator houses against
cash arrivals. Sales to the seaboard
wers light, being $500 bushels. IN
the late afternoon the market eased
off fractionally closing slightly lower
than last night.

METROPOLITAN POLICE LAW.

If the bill abolishing the metropoH-
tan police law pass the senate, will
Governor Hanly sign it? Those who
are close to him say he will 1t is
known that the governor believes in
the principles of the metropolitan po-
lice law If they can be applied without
friction, but SO many instances where
In they seem to fit badly into local-con-
ditions have been brought to his notice
that personally he would like to be
rid Of the annoyance. Governor Hanly
cannot have any personal concern in
the conduct of local police affairs. AS
a cog in the political machine the met
ropolitan law is not at all reliable. No
matter who appoints the police com
missioners and the chief of police they
can go just so far in their tnterpre-
tation of the law as local conditions
and local opinion permit. Any attempt
on the part of the governor or any set
Of state politicians to use any local
police force for political purposes,
would be sure to react.
The present governor simply took the
conditions as he found them. The
metropolitan police law was not of his
making. If its application In certain
localities has been irksome and If the
appointment of commissioners is some
what Of a Jest, he cannot be blamed
as he cannot be expected TO be acquain-
ted with all the little local ills OF the
first, second. third and fourth class
cities in the state. We can well con-
ceive how the management Of the state
police is a burden and a thankless task
to the governor, and we can hear moth
ing but a sigh Of relief from him
should the representative Of the peo-
pie decide that It should be none of
his business.
No fault can be found with the eff1ci-
ency OF the Hammond police force. It
IS not apparent that the administration
of its affairs has been hampered by
suggestions or orders from indianapolis.
The commissioners and the chief have
exercised sensible discretionary power
in the enforcement Of the law They
have the measure Of local requirements
and they reasonably cannot be accused
OF laxness nor over due tolerance.
It is the spirit Of home rule
that rebels against the metropolitan
police law hereabouts. Enectuauy the
community has as much Of ''its own
way now. as 1t is healthfu for It to
enjoy

Furnishing an Opportunity.

A Milwaukee man with a great head
and some regard for the tender feel
ings that the young carry around in
their bosoms has built large apart
ment house. one side Of which viii be
rented 10 bachelors and the other to
sweet and lovable girls. In the center
will be a common meeting place. pre-
sided over by a chaperon with not too
bright eyes
That should help some. The reason
why more young people do not marry
Is that they do not have a chance TO
get acquainted. There is many a bush
fui young man who would gladly as
sumo matrimonial responsibilities IL
some one would lead him up to a girl
and hold him there until he got ac-
quainted
we hope the building will prove the
boon that its owner intends. but mat
tiers will be much facilitated If he will
equip it with plenty of fire escapes
and have good fire about once a

mo, I mean an appetite Influenced
by literature. For instance, whenever
I eat roast beef I think of old England
and gay coated country squires riding
to the hounds across the heath covered
hills. Its historic flavor calls up pic
lures of ivy grown castles, their walls
ringing with the wassail and song OF
our ancestors, or I hear the clash OF
armor and the singing Of clothyard
shafts. These secondhand memories
make me eat twice as much as l would
ordinarily.
The salty twang of olives brings to
mind the towers and spires of Granada
and focks Of Moorish dancing girls.
For moment I hear the sound of cas-
tanets and see flashes of jeweled silk

IN casting a cursory eye over matters
that are Of public or quasi public
interest, 1t would be difficult for the
average humble layman to name, right
quick, any absorbing topic in which
the omnipresent Rooseveltian finger has
not been inserted
And yet Mr.. Roosevelt finds omis-

them however he gets busy. and they
cease 10 be omissions. When he doesn't
find them he makes them. as in the
case of the perennial race suicide prop

United States should take his position
as philosopher. guide and friend Of the
people SO seriously that he should con-
Germ himself with the Thaw trial to the
extent Of muzzling the newspapers in
the matter of the testimony there sub
mitted. suggests an answer
The answer is Mr.. Roosevelt's desire
to pose in the nme-light. one might
fancy he resented being backed off the
boards even for the briefest possible
time for he no sooner finds himself rel
egated to the wings. while some one
else occupies the center Of the stage
than he takes steps to set back where
he was. If he ever falls of it Will be

as publish the verbatim testimony in

A famous portrait painter says that
beautiful women do not take the best
looking pictures. Mere beauty is
never successfully reproduced by
brush or camera. unless the model
expresses character in the lines Of her
face and eyes. IN other words physi-
cal beauty alone becomes common
place unless it Is enriched By some
beauty of expression.
