The dividend declaration of FIVE
dollars by Calumet & Hecla was the
browning event in a series of circum-
stances that have brought on feel
ing of grave uncertainty In the fu-
ture OF copper shares, until time
when conditions have been arrived
at that are more normal in character
than have heretofore existed since
the market slump last year.
Calumet & Hecla has always stood
for conservatism and in a sense has
been the pendulum of the copper
share market, responding last to
speculative manipulation, and weak
ening only when necessity made
lower values imperative. The decla-
ration of only five dollars for the
quarter, half of the sum of the last
previous declaration, is not only
viewed as matter of conservatism,
but one of necessity. and the specula-
tive features of the much heralded
start up under full head of steam
of the Amalgamated properties has
fallen short. indeed, OF its intended
buoyant effect upon the market
The underlying situation is all
wrong in the coppers. The basis is
much more speculative than CONNER
cial. and until the big consumers
change their policy Of doing business,
or rather of trying to do business,
the future does not hold out marked
encouragement. The policy of at
tempting to force the electrical man.
ufacturing business upon the 24-cent
price basis for copper that prevailed
six months or year ago, instead OF
on IA cent copper basis, looks to
be entirely wrong and the remark
able curtailment of the General Flee
trio Co seems to supply evidence of
this contention. The above mention
ed enterprise, among the largest in
the world, is struggling along with
reduced forces, and we cannot see
how II is possible to do otherwise
than eat ravenously into their sur
plus to operate such a big property
with such reduced business

projects under way or planned that
We believe would take on new life
and use millions Of dollars worth of

seemingly unreasonable price basis

While the forced curtailment of

BE BIGGER THAN YOUR JOB.

Be a bigger man than your JOp!
Then you can make the job as big
as you are and command an increas-
ed salary for your work. Water can
not rise higher than its level, and i
your Job is too much for you you are
going to be swamped.
An official of the United States
Steel company in Pitsburg, who has
I directly under his supervision hun
dreds of young clerical men, was
asked the other day whether he had
all his positions filled.
Filled. Not by a long shot!
There are simply a bunch of fellows
rafting around in them"
Don't rattle around in your place
like a skeleton in a suit of armor-
Your employer is not hiring bundle
of bones He is paying his money
for a real man and it is up to the
live one to be bigger than the job
to be master of the situation at all
times.
A Y. NJ. C. A. secretary once told
me that he wanted TO. make his job
so big that his successor would haye
hard time filling it.
He strived always to develop new
features and work out original ideas
/ in such an effective way that the jot
would be too big for anybody else
Evidently this man was not only
equal to, but greater than, the prob
! lens which confronted him. He was
! far stronger than the man who orig
inally held the position. He not onl!
filled the place, but more than filled
it.
After doing all that was required
of him, he found volume of sur
directed into new fields of endeavor
He conquered new worlds; but neve
had occasion to weep because Their
were no more left; for when all thu
worlds were conquered, he create
new ones.
That kind of man is bigger thai
his job and only such a one is indii
pensible to his employer.

COMMENTS ON FIELDS CANDI.
DA(Y

We publish elsewhere a clipping
from a Wenatchee publication men
tioning Hon. NJ. E. Field as a can
didate for the congressional nomlna-
ton to succeed Mr.. Jones. While
we have no official authority to adj
vance Mr.. Fields candidacy. this
paper has no hesitation in affirming
that it would meet with our unqual-
flied approval. Mr.. Field is qualified
in every respect, is good public
sneaker. and has served this county
with signal ability and credit twice
in the legislature. He is a substan-
tlal property holder and the proprl-
ertor of the leading scenic resort In
the northwest. He is clean, capable
and popular, a loyal republican, thor
oughly in line with the administra-
ton. and would no doubt make good
and command the full support OF MS
party, which would mean his cleo
ton. He is gentleman of large
Lain and reserve force. Among all
those already mentioned the Leader
Goes not recognize any stronger
name. nor one indeed that could
command the support that Mr.. Field
could, none VINO would be able 10
accomplish as much for his constitu-
ents. AS long as We must lose Con
gresham Jones anyhow, as that wor-
thy gentleman will try for the sena-
tOrship. there is not a more worthy
or more capable man in the state
than Mr.. Field 20 fill that importar
and honorable position. He would
nc doubt have the unqualified en-
dorsement of his own cOunty.-Che.
Ian Leader.
