of the birds is beginning to show
suits. Policeman elliott saw two coveyS
of the birds on the Anacosta road a few
days ago. and the same day he came
across two more on the Barker place.
A short time afterward he observed two
coveys at Good Hope. one near Overlook
Inn. the other along Alabama avenue
numbering about thirty birds That they
being we'll protected was shown by

went about on the ground feeding with

the birds AT GieSbOro. AS far aS rabbits
concerned there have not been so
many seen as last year.

the robbery and he learned from Police
man Heide that Fred Johnson, who has
farm at Silver Hill. Prince George

TERRITORIES OUTPUT LAST
 M | NTH
ARIZONA WILL LEAD IN PRoDUC- TON FOR lsos--INTEREsT-
 ING FIGURES COMPILED

The production of copper in the United States, Mexico and Canada for the month of September was at the highest figures since the month of Au- gust, 1906, and was within a few mil lion pounds of the larges months out. put on record.
 X compilation from the various smell ters, mines and camps throughout the Unite States, Mexico and Canada gives an indicated production of copper on tho American continent for September of l02,509,l25 pounds, m increase of 3i,, ,l2o,325 pounds or B per cent com pared with last year, and an increase of 4,5i7,l25 pounds over September, 1906.
 An increase in September over Au gust was due principally to the nearly i,000O00 pound increase in the Buttc output, and all the other camps are nov near the high record figures. Butte, however, has produced as high as 33,. 900, ,000 pounds per month under its largest total.
 Arizona, for tho year 1908, will carry the banner as the leading producing district, but only because of restrict ed Montana output in the early months of this year.
 It was in September last year, that the largest copper companies first began to materially restrict, so that the in- crease in production, month by month, for some time to come, will show large gains as compared with a year ago. ,, This gain should, before the close of the year make up for the decrease of 9s,' o0o,000 pounds which was apparent ai the end of August, but the years pro. ductj6n will still be below tbe 1906 record.

The early ing of the convention
! Wednesday was productive of little
practical progress, as the principal
committees were not ready to report
But it had the effect of the explosion
of the long pent up Bryan enthusiasm,
which took the signal from Senator
Cores eloquent reference to the Ne
barska leader and burst into a whirl-
wind of enthusiastic tribute lasting one
hour and nineteen minutes, with eight
minutes more of the expiring echoes
of clamor, establishing the convention
record of one hour and twenty-six min

onstration at Chicago, which held the
record heretofore. II was a decisive
exhibition of the overmastering
strength of the Bryan column and one
of the most dramatic convention pic
lures ever presented as the standards
of the states were torn from their
moorings and borne through the hall
until they were stood together on the
platform.
Crowds of ticket holders continued
TO storm the various doors. and a rec
ord-breaking attendance was in sight.
Women seemed to predominant in the
throngs. Most of them were gaily
gOwned, as for the theaters. The band
worked overtime to keep the crowds
amused, and fairly earned the APP
plause that was literally bestowed.
At $3.50 the report of the commit
tee on credentials was brought to the
hail. but Chairman Bell had wandered
off and could not be located and the
delegates and spectators put in anoth-
er period of inactivity while pages
and messengers were securing the
hall TO bring the chairman to his desk
and his duty.
The floor scene was one OF much
confusion, the aisles being congested
with delegates, either pressing their
way to their places or engaged In
earnest consultation. The aisles are
narrow at best, and they seemed i'm

thes from OF the night was expected TO
center, appeared on the floor shortly
after o'clock and Immediately was
surrounded by a number of his lieu
tenants and sympathizers who were
prepared to take up the battle in his
behalf Colonel Guffey seemed pale,
but determined. With clenched fist
and burrowed brow he talked with
great emphasis of expression to those
about him, one of whom was Peter
O'Boyle, his chief aid in the Pennsyl-
vania delegation. Mr.. O'Boyle was
scheduled to speak in defense of the
colonel in case OF an attack from any
quarter.
When Chairman Bell had been
brought back, after bringing down his
gavel in rapid tottaa, he gave vent
once more to his stereotyped cry:

Why is it that whenever there is a
strike or other labor trouble, and federal
or state troops are sent to the locality to
preserve order, there is loud protest
from the strikers or their sympathizers?
What does it signify ? Is it because they
simply think the step unnecessary, and
begrudge the expense incurred II this
is it merely why do not the people gener-
ally take the same view, for it affects
them in the same way? Is not the usual
protest of the union-for it commonly
comes in that way-based really on the
fear that If order is preserved and if there
is no chance for threats or violence to be
used toward other workmen willing to la
Dor under conditions rejected by the
strikers, that these workmen will come
and take the places of the strikers, thus
ending the trouble and defeating the
strike +? And if this is true, does it not
follow that the strikers depend to a GER
tain extent on the intimidation they are
able to exercise when there is not ade-
quate protection at hand And, pursu-
ing this subject further, is it not be-
cause these things are SO that labor
unions-some of them, at least-discour-
age their members from joining the army
