VALDEZ TO HAVE
 ORE CONCENTRATOR
Continued from page II

but failed to give satisfactory tusuita. Individual concentrating plants while giving excellent results, were OK. pensivc to install, 9eventy-tlve ton plant costing about $60, 900 which makes them prohibitive to tho small producer. After a consultation with several men interested in the Prince William pound mines IL was determined to construct plant capable of handling the output of all the mines In this section, and to ihis end the land and power for opera ting the plant have already been secured.
 From the tests made 1t Is estimated that 70 per cent of all ores mined In Prince William sound arc concentrat- ing ores, and the saving to be effected by concentrating before shipment is not only In the steamer freight, but in the smelting charges as well, as the silica is almost entirely elini- mated. The gold and silver values, for which under the present system
 there Is In most cases no returns, wili be saved to the shipper, and tho esti- mated cost of collecting the oros from the various mines, and concen- trating them Is very moderate.
 To Furnish Boats
 It is tho plan of the company to put on fleet of ocean tugs capable of weathering any storm liable to arise on the sonnd, for tho purpose of towing barges especial conslructed for carrying ore. By this method ores can be taken from floats near the mines, in places often inaccessible to steamers, doing away with the ne- cessity for expensive wharves, and offering the small operators an ineen. tive to develop their properties.
 It Is estimated that by shipping full cargoes from a central point the present freight rate can be cut in half, and with the iron unite In ex- cess In the concentrates, the premiums will cut the smelling rate down to the minimum of S1 per ton.
 Another feature of the project which promises not only saving to the operator but added facilities to mining operations will be the fleet of boats regularly operated calling at very part of tho sound, which can deliver supplies cheaply and at the convenience of the operator. and without the delay which Is such an item of cost to operators far removed from tho few ports visited by tho steamships.
 A competent corps of chemists will assay each cargo of ore when ro. ceiyed at the concentrating plant, and another assay will bc made of tho concentrates, thus compelling falr and jnst treatment ct the smelt. CT, and it Is expected that one.halS tho saving effected by this plant win pay tho mine owner handsome profit.
 The plans for the installation of the plant have progr eseed go far that 1t is now expected work will commence on 1t some time In May, and 1t is hopod to have 1t in operation before tho end of the summer.

COMMISSION uPHoLDs RATES.
Proceeding Brought by Marshall Oil
Companv is Dismissed.

"A Washington, ID. c., dispatch says
that the interstate commerce COM
mission yesterday, in an opinion rem
dered by Commissioner Clements an
nounced It's decision in the case of the
Marshall Oil Company against the
Northwestern Railway Company and
others.
The complaint in this case alleged
unjust rates for the transportation of
petroleum and it's products In less than
CARROTS on Interstate shipments from
Mason City, Iowa, as compared with
the rates of such articles between
points within Iowa or within Mime
sofa, as fixed by state commissions.
but it appeared that rates on such
commodities in the western classifica-
ton are on a relative basis Of equality
with those in the southern and official
classification.
The compliments claim for change
in classification on interstate ship
ments was based almost entirely upon
the probative force to be derived from
a similar change resulting from ship
ments. The commission decided that
such a showing does not constitute a
sufficient basis for an order of such
far-reaching effect as that asked for
in this proceeding and that the COM
plant should be dismissed.

had been "a working girl, the other a
wealthy manufacturers with a reputa

| The day before the election each
member of the little club received a
typewriter letter. signed by a woman
whon all knew, which began with
these words:
eff what / write you is not true. II
is libel!' Then she said that the club
should not honor It's "meanest man"
and related some amusing Incidents
to demonstrate that she was not mis-
taken in her estimate of the man. In
closing she wrote:
WHAT do you think of a man who
has his barn painted and says to his
wife: That's your birthday present
If you can afford to elect that kind of
La man for your president go ahead"
The alleged "meanest man" was de-

as If there would not be a better time
to can peaches than right now. The

fine condition. The Oppice Fruit Com

fruit arriving is OF splendid quality

price will not be lower.
The season for Elbertas will not last
