STRONG ALL DAY
UNTIL THE CLOSE
Demand For Copper Metal Was
Good With Very Little
Offered at Price.

The opening of the market saoWeo
considerable strength and the demand
for stock increased till almost at the
close. The market for copper metal
is good although there Is little or no
copper offered. Boston Consolidated
was about the most active stock on the
entire list, sales being made as high
as $3.50. North Butte also showed
strength, and from indications was
due to investment buying. DEM
Arizona is being well supported at
1852. Superior & Pittsburg failed TO
hold her strength Of yesterday, due
to the fact that there was consider
able profit taking, and am inclined to
believe that Superior & Pittsburg aas
seen its low point and win without
doubt see better prices at the close
of the week Shattuck Arizona con-
tinues to be in good demand at $3.50.
Warren is still scarce at $3.50 to 1913
with no indication that the stock will
come out at $500. Black Mountain
holds firm at $3.50. Greene Cananea
has been in excellent demand at SIPS
sales being made as high as 1882
and closed at $7.3S. The market as a
whole shows considerable improve
ment although curb stocks did not re-
spond as quickly as the listed stocks.
With per cent money in sight, bet
ter prices must be expected.

ores are associated with valuable de-

The second important copper dis
trict of Alaska embraces the country
around Prince William Sound, and

of valda. and the other on Latouehe

a moderate amount of silica, and is
rather low in iron and alumina. A
number of other copper prospects In

able.
The third copper region of the ter.
ritory is along Copper River, in the
vicinity of Mount Wrangell, and es
pecially along Chitinoi river. The
ores OF this district received consider
able attention in 1906, the most i'm
portant work being done by the Gug
genheim Exploration Company. Rail
ways connecting this district with the
coast at Seward and at Valdez will
probably be completed in the near fu
ture, and II the deposits of the dis
trict develop as favorable as is al
present expected, the copper produc

creased as to become an important
part of the total output OF the United

Alaska produced s.6S5.646 pounds
Of blister copper in 1906. an increase
of more than S.5O0.O0O pounds over
the output for 1905. The mine pro-

less than the smelter production, for
a considerable part of the smelter
output of 1906 was derived from ores

The product came chiefly from
Prince of Wales Island. in the Ketch-
kan district of southeastern Alaska,
where the only two smelters of the
Territory are located. Both OF these
smelters were blown IN near the end
of 1905. but one of them was out Of
blast for a considerable time In 1906.

this siliceous ore came from British

was shipped to the Tyee smelter on
Vancouver Island, and the resulting
matte was forwarded to the United
States for conversion. Both ore and
matte from Prince OF Wales Island
were also shipped TO the smelter at
Tacoma, Wash. and TO the Britannia
smelter on Vancouver Island, where
they were transformed into blister
copper. The ore of this, district is
not of high grade, the copper yield

with the movement for re-organiza-
ton. that definite steps are being
taken to pay off the Arizona indebt-
edness of the Arizona Smelling COM
pany, owner OF the smelter at Hum

materialize by January Is, possibly
sooner, or, perhaps, a little later.
This, of course, would be the pre-
hminary step toward perfecting the
reorganization of the company, plans
for which were put under way some
time ago, as stated at the time in the
Journal Miner. Since the appoint
ment of a receiver for the company,
in the district court, here. those inter
ested in the smelter have been bend
ing their energies TO perfect this re-
organization as rapidly as possible,
and only the scarcity of money has
prevented their plans being worked
out in detail prior to this. Now that
the financial situation is so vastly
improved, there seems to be little
doubt but that those behind the COM
pany will soon have things in shape
for the paying off of the obligations

The State Treasury,

The Legislature has passed a law
requiring the state treasurer TO turn
over the interest on the state funds
m his hands to the state. and in lieu
of this his salary is increased mate

600 per year while the former salary
was $500, but it is confidently as.
serted that the treasurer easily clean.
ed up 100000 out of the perquisites
of the Office. While this figure is
probably too high, yet the response.
'bility assumed by the treasurer in de
posting the state funds is no small
matter.
The amount of money passing
through his hands in a year is very
large sum, and the state takes no risk
whatever in its care, his bond being
sufficient to make the commonwealth
safe in, case of loss, as it generally
aggregates some $1O,O0O,OOO. At least
the people will know what a man gets
for being state treasurer, anyhow.

plore his emotional psychology for
justification that would excite merri-
ment in the case of any of his con-
temporaries.
1t is easy to hold a man whose ideals
have been tremendously advertised to
a standard even higher than that by
which ordinary politicians are judged
| 1t is not necessary, however, to insist
upon that. Let Mr. Roosevelt be judg-
ed as other men are And so judged
what must the verdict be in the matter
of his use of the United States govern
ment, in so far as he controls it, for
| the purpose of making a member of his
cabinet the next president. Here again,
| let us not insist upon the impossible.
| Let us not be extreme in our demands.
| Let us acknowledge that even if eX-
| IRENE claims have been made for Mr..
| Roosevelt as a statesman of the loft
| lest motives and the rarest kind of
moral courage, he is indeed very hum
an in reality. His temptation is great,
for undoubtedly the one desire of his
soul today is that his successor should
be thoroughly in sympathy with his
lpolicies.
But having made every allowance
the use of federal patronage, the mob
Iilizing of federal officeholders, the
wholesale roundup of southern dele
gates in the support of the administra-
ton candidate are no less open to Crit
icism when President Roosevelt does
these things in behalf of his secre-
tary of war than they were sixteen
wears ago when President Harrison,
desiring a second term, did them for
| himself 1t is a specious plea that
president is also citizen, and as
citizen. may be concerned in the selec-
| ton of the next president. To be sure,
but no citizen, as citizen. may EN-
ploy the power of the United States,
which is properly the attribute or the
possession of no individual but rather
| the sovereign expression OF the author-
| ity of the whole people, to promote ms
personal aims within political party.
Such a course is a mock of democracy.
| The fault of Mr. Roosevelt as OF all
predecessors wno have been open to
| the same criticism, is that he uses the
power of the office of president. which
is not his personal asset, to thwart and
nullify opposition to his personal will
and to force upon his party's conven-
ton the ratification of his personal de-
cree.
1t is understood that Mr.. Roosevelt
denies that he is open to these critl-
cisms. but Mr.. Roosevelt has never yet
admitted that he has done anything
questionable or wrong. Yet his pres
| idency has embraced not a few chap
tiers which were distinguished by the
use of questionable means to attain
desired ends. A generous view may
fairly be taken of the presidents incon-
sistencies and lapses, but they cannot
be dismissed as the negligible by-prOd-
uct of greatness.
