a five-foot post in some public place
in the city, wearing a placard from
two to ten hours with the words "wife
beaten" or woman beaten" upon it.

70 the Eastern INVESTOR" stated A. J.

accoun of the present uncertain con-
ditions surrounding the red metal,
continued Mr.. Davis. it is almost i'm
possible to land a copper proposition,
no matter how promising it may hap

yer, then it il u tar different story.
Mr.. Davis says that the Eastern man
is ready for n gold proposition now
harder than ever, but he must be as
sured that it is all right first. There
is more caution in the East when it
comes to mining investments, but
there is no truth in the statements
that the doors of the East are closed
to all mining propositions.-Salt Lake
