EASTERN VIEW OF |
COPPER AND STOCKS
HAS CHEERFUL TONE

In its weekly review of copper
stocks and the metals the Boston
Financial News says:
The market for copper shares
during the past week has been the
best Boston has seen in long time.
Nearly every copper stock on the list
has been more or less active and very
good net gains have been made in
all of the leading issues. The move
ment started on Monday, when lot
OF fresh buying orders appeared and
It has continued throughout the week
with the volume of business con-
stantly increasing
The first stock To attract attention
on account of their unusual activity
were the Butte issues. Amalgamated
Norh Butte Butte Coalition and
Parrot. These stocks for while
held the center of the stage, but Il
wasn't long before the demand for
the better class of Lake issues be-
came strong and active, and strength
in these issues was second only 10
the Huttes. From the high class
Lake isues the demand spread to the
low priced stocks of that distritc and
late in the week they were freely
bought at steadily advancing prices.
A great deal of the buying seemed
To come from Lake sources, and il re-
fleets the buliish feeling Of investors
there. In the case OF the Butte
issues a great deal OF the buying was
local with the possible exception of
Amalgamated which was heavily
bought for New .ork account. This
buying showed clearly The position of
the leading copper interests in New
York which means the country and
the belief that these interests were
bullish on the general copper situa-
ton has a great deal 70 do with the
Increased demand TOR coppers
throughout the list.
This bnllish feeling on the part OF
the leading copper interests is New
York OF course has as a basis the I'M
proved position Of the metal market
and also the general improvement at
the mines in the leading camps.
The fact that the Calumet 4 Hecla

there is quite little 10 be said. The
conditions at Butte have improved
very much recently although prodnc-

1T SEEMED INcuRAsLE
Body Raw with Observation-Disclosures
from Hospitals as HopeIess-Cuti-
cura Remedies Cured Him.

Prom the age of three months until
fifteen years old, my son Owens life
was made intolerable by eczema in its
worst form. In spite of treatments the
disease gradually spread until nearly
every part of his body was quite raw.
He used to tear himself dreadfully in
his sleep and the agony he went
through is quite beyond words The
regimental doctor pronounced the case
hopeless. We had him in hospitals
four times and he was pronounced one
of the worst cases ever admitted.
From each he was discharged as in
durable. We kept trying remedy
after remedy, but had gotten almost
past hoping for a cure. Six months
ago We purchased set of Cuticura
Remedies. The result was truly mar
velous and to-day he is perfectly cured.

Washington during the congressional
season. He says he feels like an
Irish farmer he knew out in his dis
trict. The farmer had bought place
out of savings as a farmland and
renter. The tax assessor came around
one day and put a valuation on Pats
new property which Pat thought ex-
cessive. His protest, however, was
unavailing.
One day a neighbor visited Pat ana
found him building an addition to his
house, and obviously the house was
plenty big enough without it.
Isn't that a piece OF extravar

Sincerity Gives Power.

There is nothing which will add so
much to ones power as the conscious
ness of being absolutely sincere, genu-
inc. If your life is perpetual lie, If
you are conscious that you are not
what you pretend to be, you cannot
be strong. There is restraint, per
petual fighting against the truth going
on within you, struggle which saps
your energy and warps your conduct,
says Home Chat. Sham and shoddy
are powerless; only the genuine and
the true are worth while.

Atlantic City. N, J., gave the supposed
contact line a sharp jerk. The mule
responded to the pull with both hoofs.
AS result of the mistake Mccarthy
was taken to the hospital with the
marks of the mules hoofs on his face
and side. He barely escaped being
stamped to death by rolling out of
reach after he had been knocked
down.

for such real good can come only by a
thorough and continuing supervision over
the acts of the combination in all. its
parts. so as to prevent stock watering,
improper forms of competition, and, in
short, wrongdoing generally. The law
should correct that portion OF the Sher-
of the character above described, whether
they be reasonable or unreasonable; but
this should be done only as part OF a
general scheme to provide for this eff
fective and thoroughgoing supervision by
the national government of all the oper-
atoms of the big interstate business con-
Germs.
do not know whether it is possible,
but If possible, it is certainly desirable,
that in connection with measures to
restrain stock watering and overcapital-
ization there should be meacures taken
to prevent at least the grosser forms or
gambling in securities and commodities,
such as making large sales of what men
do not possess and "cornering the mar
ket. Legitimate purchases of commodi-
ties and of stocks and securities for IN
vestment have no connection Whatever
with purchases of stocks or other securi-
ties or commodities on margin for
speculative and gambling purposes
There is no moral difference between
gambling at cards or in lotteries or on
the race track and gambling in the stock
market. One method is just as PERM
cious to the body polite as the other IN
kind. and in degree the evil worked is
far greater. But it is a far more difficult
subject with which to deal. The great
Dulk Oh the business TRANSACTED OH Lily
exchanges is not only legitimate, but is
necessary to the working of our modern
industrial system, and extreme care
would have to be taken not to interfere
with this business in doing away with
the bucket shop type of operation. We
should study both the successes and the
failures of foreign legislators who. not
ably in Germany, have worked along this
line, so as not to do anything harmful
Moreover, there is a special difficulty in
dealing with this matter by the federal
government in a federal republic like
ours But if it is possible to devise
a way to deal with it the effort should be
made, even if only in cautious and
tentative way. 1t would seem that the
federal government could at least act
by forbidding the use of the mails, tele-
graph and telephone wires for mere
gambling in stocks and futures, just as
it does in lottery transactions.
