The independent copper properties whose costs average considerably less than those of the Amalgamated com. panies, are making good profits on re. lined copper, even at present levels. The Guggenheim properties, such as Utah Copper, Nevada Consolidated and Cumberland-Ely, have all felt the i'm petus of the advance in price, their average cost of production being about cents a pound. It is said that offers made within the past fortnight for a controlling interest in Nevada Consol. dated have been rejected. The advance in the price of Cumberland Ely is re. ported to be due to buying by copper interests, who are attempting to secure control in the open market of the two properties. The estimated combined output of Nevada Consolidated and Cumberland Ely, beginning with next year, is in the neighborhood of l2O ,OOO.. 900 to 130,000,0OO pounds annually. The quarterly report of the Utah Copper company for the three months ended June 30, made public on Wednesday, shows gross production for that period of ll,56S,39O pounds at an average cost of S.l6 cents and net profit from min. ing and milling of $46S,99s.

STRONG REASONS
 FOR BULL MARKET
Recent Developments Have Nearly All Favored Better Prices for
 Securities.

Broadly speaking, improvement is still the keynote throughout the coun- try It is true that railroad earnings continue unsatisfactory and that the proposed advance in freight rates re- ceived a cheek in Georgia last week; :; it is true also that the government s monthly report on crops did not meet expectations, that wheat and corn have advanced sensationally, that labor trou- ble has arisen in Canada and that gen eral business, as represented by the systematically compiled returns of bank clearings, is making but slow progress. Yet recent developments have nearly all favored better values for securities. A few of the more salient may be enumer- ated.
 l. Call money down to T of per cent.
 ?. Over-the-year funds at per cent.
 3. Foreign exchange lower. 4. Bank surplus increased to $60,- OO0,O0O. ,. City places 1 per cent bonds, pre-. viously unstable. 6. Securities sold abroad '. July failures light.
 s. Pig iron output i,2l7, ,000 tons last month, against 1,092,1 in June. 9. Steel rails ordered.
 10. Copper active; up 9sc, at l4c for lake. II. Cotton crop of l3,5OO,O0O bales promised.
 l2. Indicated crop of 675,651 300 bushels wheat and 2,716,000, ,000 bushels corn, both above last years harvest. l3. Successful sale of dry goods. II. Activity in bonds; sales on Fri day, $5,5OO,0OO. l5. Increase in public buying of stocks. l6. Presidential campaign quieseont. The public s participation in the stock market, though slightly larger at the close of the week, is still insufficient to absorb the extensive holdings of the anipulators.-New York Journal of Commerce.

The unbiased student of conditions affecting securities finds himself con fronted with complex problem. Men rather than conditions govern the stock market at the moment, and since it were vain to affect knowledge of the future plans of the manipulators, opinions concerning the possible course of prices must be ventured with timid
 ity. The powerful operators now in control could probably force quotations up five points in as many days just as they could certainly bring about twice that amount of decline in as many hours, not to say minutes. For do they not have the stocks to sell if they choose to? And can they not bor- row enough money to finance another sharp rise if such tactics appeal to them? Any discussion of financial, in- dustrial, agricultural or political af- fairs must therefore be regarded as not necessarily having direct bear ing upon current speculation-the mar ket is not swayed by natural conditions.

CLEAN TOWN PEOPLE
SHOULD SEE THAT CITY
HOSPITAL LSMALNTALNED

Among the advocates of the re-
tention of the emergency hospital
is Mayor Moore, who this morning
said it was an absolute adjunct and
necessity in connection with the
police department. The council,
which now has under consideration
a proposition to appropriate 1928
a month to the support of the hos
pital, is showing lack of interest
in the project, which has caused
Emergency Physicians Roark and
Eikenbary some worry.
Last month they worked for
nothing, and it begins to look as
though this month will also pass by
without action by the council.
Councilman Gray at first de-
clared that the appropriation would
not be made. Afterward he prom
Used to investigate and see if the
reported benefit of the adjunct was

but in this case he is singularly

In freeing itself in measure
from vice in the lower Howard st.
section the city has encountered
the strong probability of also los
ing the emergency hospital at the
police department. Apparently the
city is so utterly dependent for
revenue on the license levied on
fallen women that the Punishment
of 100 of them means a serious
blow to public finance.
The hospital was maintained on
receipts paid into the city treas
ury by the women. With that cut
off there is no source left to main
tain a place where a person in
jured on the street can receive at
tention most promptly regardless
of who he Is or whether or not he
is able to pay for it. The question
is one that ought to interest every
church organization in Spokane re-
CARELESS of the fact that several
of them maintain regular hospitals.
The emergency station is not de-
signed to compete with them, but

cases where a few moments delay
means a life.

FORAKER HITS

WASHINGTON, D. c., Feb. 10
Foraker took the floor in the SEN
ate this afternoon on a question of
personal privilege to answer state
ments in Roosevelt's letter to
Foulke with reference to federal
appointments in Ohio.
! He disclaimed any intent Of
"bandying words" with the presi-
dent, and while recognizing the
lack of interest by the general pub
lie as to who held public Office, he
was prompted by the attitude of
the president, as expressed in his
letter, to produce the case of an
officeholder in Ohio who had been
coerced into supporting the admin
istration.
Roosevelt denounced in his let
ter as maliciously false the state
ments of Foraker forces that APP
pointments had been made to boil
ster up Taft's campaign.
In his speech Foraker took d.
rect issue with Roosevelt's denial
that patronage was being used by
the administration in an improper
manner.

UNITED PRESS ASSOCIATION SERVICE
ALDR|CH DEFENDS HIS
RUBBER CURRENCY BILL

WASHINGTON. D. c., Feb. 10
The. reply Of Sen. Aldrich, of
Rhode Island, to the critics of the
banking and currency bill, intro
duced by him as a measure to pro
vide relief in time of financial
stress by allowing national banks
to issue emergency currency on
certain approved securities guar
anteed by the government, was
made today. 1t excited widespread
interest because the bill is sup
posed to open the opportunity of
passing a number of bills offered
this session. Many financial critics
declare the bill affords no substan-
tial relief. Aldrich said in part:
"The bill reported by committee
provides for a possible issue in
emergencies Of $5o0,O00,000 notes,
to be identical in character with
national bank notes secured by
state bonds. The banks are re-
quired to deposit U. S. treasury,
municipal, state or first class rail-
road bonds. On state and munich
pal bonds banks are entitled to 80
per cent In notes; on railroads rs
per cent. At any time within 3S
hours the entire $500.000,000 can be
put into the channels of trade to
allay public excitement. The bill
simply gives the banks right to &C.
complish by legal methods that
which they felt necessary in the re-
cent crisis to accomplish by H.
legal methods.
"ln the recent panic there was a
general suspension Of cash pay
ment by banks. This was in viola
ton of every banking law. uBt the
bank managers should realize that
the extraordinary forbearance of
the people would not be repeated.
Under ordinary conditions the
volume of our currency could be
fairly criticized as excessive; it is
certainly adequate to meet normal
demands. But no provision is
made for emergencies which occur
more or less frequently in every
country and which we now see
must be provided for. 1t is impos-
sible to estimate the losses inflict-
ed by suspension of payment by
banks In the recent disturbance.

ment on every hand, thousands

In the opinion of Mayor Moore,
Spokane Is to witness another
prosperous year. An agent of Fed

receiving calls for men to 60 to

this is the municipal improvements
contemplated in paving, filling the
Sprague av. trestle and laying of
new water mains. In the mayors
opinion this work will provide oc-
cupation for practically all of the
