OIL MEN BUY A RANCH
IN JUAB COUNTY FIELD

Angelow Byrne of San Francisco and
Anthony. McCauley of this city have closed
a deal fer Chase Bros ranch of !. 200 acres
in Juab county. five miles south of Juab
Station, and within ninety days thN will
begin boring for oil on the premises
we believe we have one of the best
sections OF the Juab field for the de
Yelopment of large quantities of oil, - said
Mr.. AcCauiey yesterday. This ground
was pronounced by Dr.. Crandali, the vet
eran oil expert and authority of Los An
SeieS, to cover an immense pool of pet
roleum, and we are banking on his judg-
ment- 1t is not the purpose to organize
a company; the ground will be DrosDected
and oil developed. if it is there by
private syndicate of our own"
Mr. McCauley says there is all kinds of
excitement in the Juab field and that
the people in Nephi and other towns IN
the county near the oil field talk moth
ing else. Not only are they talking, but
they are getting into the game. as we'll
companies are being organized, lands
leased or sold, and stock bought in COM
panles already in the field. and everybody
Is figuring on making fortunes during the
coming year. This Juab field flanl1s the
line of the Salt Lake, Los Angeles e
san Pedro railroad and. if oil is found in
quantity there, as every expert declares
II VIII be, wild excitement will prevail
down there. 1t viii simply be a question
OF building storage tanks and loading oil
into trains of tank cars as fast as they
can be handled. Mr. McCaulev saws he
Knows of number of rigs that have
already been ordered. and he is certain
that drilling will begin down there very
shortly.

COPPER PRODUCERS WANT
STABILITY IN PRICES

prominent mining man closely identi-
fled with the Cole-Ryan and Phelps
Dodge interests, interviewed by the BOs-
ton News Bureau, says:
Il have noted for some time a tendency
on the part of the Amalgamated. Cole
Ryan and Phelps-Dodge interests to work
for the stability of copper prices through
control of the output.
Their ambition is to control the price
of copper in the same manner that the
price of steel rails is controlled. This
cannot be brought about in a day or q
year, but ii is a matter that has received
a great deal of thoughtful attention.
THE leading copper interests do not
believe that stockholders interests in the
various companies are conserved By the
liquidation Of their assets through the
sale of copper at near the cost of produc-
ton. 1t may be poor policy for the Anal
gamated and Phelps-DOdge interests TO
hold the umbrella for the low cost pro-
duceTs. They think it is better even TO
do this than unnecessarily to dissipate
their assets without adequate profit when
by basing their output according to the
law of supply and demand they can re-
ceive a better average price for their
product.
Copper ought to be the easiest con-
trolled commodity in the world. It's pro-
duction is limited and the bulk of it is in
few hands. A stable price for the metal
would be better for the consumer as well
as the producer How much better off
knowledge that the price of steel rails
is S2S per ton year in and year out, and
every road is on the same footing. PreVi-
Gus to the formation of the United States
Steel corporation the price of steel rails
fluctuated between SIS and $50 per ton.
In discussing this situation recently
with a New York copper interest l spoke
about the inability to get the Calumet &
Hecla into an agreement to create a
stable price for copper and one of the
leading New York copper interests re-
piled: That may be true, but you must
consider that the Calumet & Hecla con-
trolls a smaller percentage of the total
output every year and they are now seek
ing new properties to retain their control
of the lake brand. | have often Won
dered to what extent the Amalgamated
interests might be back of the opposition
to Calumet & Hecla control of Osceola-
II do not anticipate that this ideal cop
per situation can be brought about in any
hurry, but 1 think it will be recognized
that stability in copper prices is situa-
ton within the realm of reason"

as memorial tribute to our deceased son, Goodrich, who was born in Wash. ington, and after twelve years of a life peculiarly sweet and blessed to those about him, died here also. If this suggestion meets with the approv. al of those commissioned to carry on the work, we shall appreciate it and earnestly hope for the completion of the fund.
 Sincerely yours,
 Richard s. Barnes"
 These two large gifts made the li- brary building and endowment an as- sured prospect. But the raising of the further ten thousand dollars in this small community was no light or easy task. It took five years to do that work. It took the cooperation of prac- tically every citizen of the community to accomplish it. l would that could rehearse to you all the individuals and organizations who gave. These were one hundred and forty in number, and as many of these gifts came from fam lilies and organizations which consist ed of many members. many times that number of individuals is included. It would be interesting and also amusing to go over the exciting and interesting events which were gotten up to help this cause. Remember the marvellous circus of 1904, under the capable man. agement of Victor McCutcheon, with the assistance of his many unrivaled stars of the first magnitude; it cleared S7O0 and gave the town of Washington something to talk about and laugh about ever since. Remember the series of delightful sales, or musicals at the Knoll, or at MT Barnes, or at Mir Ros- siter's. Remember the many plays where we roared with our comedians and wept with our tragedians-oh, we had good times even if we had hard work getting that money.
 The result of these efforts is to-day the assured fact that S25, ,0OO and $7OO over has been raised. We have our en- dowment of s13,OOO, and we have our new building wishout a single cent of debt on it. Our building committee has so arranged that every bill is paid, and we, have a margin over. It is not big margin. If I say s25 over, think have gone as far as dare, but we have not gone beyond the money we have raised to build.

able to say with pride about our new library. It is ours all through-our Washington library. Washington people have given the money for it, people who live here now or have lived here. Washington people have built it. The architect, E. K. Rossi- ter, is one of us, and in addition to his other generous gifts the design of this building was his contribution. The contractor is a Washington man, and those who worked for. him on. this work have been very largely Washington men; and the result is a credit to those who worked, as well as to those who gave. It has been we'll done. 1 know that, for I have bothered them by looking on at very large part of the doing. I think those who worked here have had pride in it as public work, which all were interested in having up to the highest notch. The stuff in 1 it is largely Washington stuff. The stones were brought by our farmers from stone walls which were in sight of the building; and this work was done almost without cost. The frame and timbers of this building grew in Washington trees in the woods which you can see out of the library win dows, not quarter of mile away, and even if the art memorials of so great beauty came from outside, from London end New York, the people to whom they stand for memor- ial-Mr and Mrs Frederick Gum, Sen- ator Orville H. Platt, Mrs Mary Brins- made Brown and Goodrich Barnes were all Washington people, of our nearest and dearest Washington people. This is our library in sense in which libraries do not always belong to the towns which they adorn. We rejoice to have it se. and we believe that we will always enjoy it more because it is SO. This is a house which we our selves have builded.
 That brings the matter of our library history down to date. To-day we ded- icate to future usefulness what has been so we'll begun. Long may this new and beautiful building stand to give adornment to our village, to pro- vide pleasure and instruction for its citizens, and to commemorate in its walls and windows and by it's very presence those who have been greatly loved and highly honored here in Wash ington.

New York, Feb. 4-Why should men be

Aha, Stuck, are you?

Why can't woman build an aeroplane
