COPPER TRADE.
Several Points Of More Than Passing In
terest to Producers and Consumers.

There are several points of more
than passing interest in the foreign
copper trade Situation, which appeal
to producers and consumers who are
closely watching the statistical posi-
tion of the metal.
Official statistics show that the ex-
ports of domestic copper, refined and
in ore and in matte from the United
States for the eleven months ending
with November, 1907. amounted APP
proximately to 195, 504 long tons.
Compared with the corresponding
period in 1906, there. is shown an in
crease of 1851 tons, or about 2 per
cent.
The export trade with Great
Britain especially has grown no less
than 30 per cent. and that of France
about per cent. The shipments to
Germany direct show a moderate in
crease, but the receipts by that coun-
try by way of Holland indicate a
falling off of almost I per cent.
The invoice value of the copper ex-
ported in all forms for the eleven
months of 1907 was $50, 1906, O93, which
compares with $4,000, 456 in 1906; an
increase of s7,275,637 or per cent.
In addition there were exported in
1907 a total of s., 529, 1906 in 1906; an
increase of S1,575, 4S3, or about 40 per
cent.

The New School Law.

There have been several suits
filed already in different counties
for the purpose of contesting the
Constitutionality of the new school
law. We are certain that it fails to
guard against colored pupils gradual
ing from the Common school enter
ing the High School that is required
to be established in each county.
One or more High Schools must be
established and the Fiscal Court
shall pay for them as the judgment
of the County Educ ,tional Board
directors. Any pupil is eligible to
enter who has graduated from the
common schools. Where is the negro
excluded That is one reason why
we are opposed to the law.
Another reason is that the separa-
ton or control of negro and white
schools is not made clear and as a
result we have a negro on our school
board in this county.
If we had said four years ago that
the republicans elected in this coun-
ty would in less than four years
have negioes on the school boards
of the county, they would have re.
piled. at is the same old cry oil
Nigge. Niger. Niger. So it is.

they put the "negro" in. How dc

THIS MOTHER IS WRONG.


! A Worcester mother has burned her
children's copies Of Mother Goose"
Andersen's Fairy Tales and the
whole juvenile library Of classic fancy.
4 Hereafter, she says, stern realism
shall rule her nursery.
No Santa Claus.
No Jack, the Giant Killer.
No Alice in Wonderland.
Only facts"
Now, what does the woman think the
fabric of child's mind is made Of?
Why, the childish imagination is like
an oriental garden run riot. Its early
fancies are Of the wildly improbable
visions impalpable, mirages that rise
and fall When the child calls the roll
Of its infantile heroes and heroines,
strange shapes and glowing sprites
answer, Here"
There is no harm to the child's fu-
ture in the kaleidoscope of its early
imaginings.
Sometimes, indeed, the mother may
be startled at some of the special won
ders seen and reported by her inno-
cent offspring. She needs only to re-
member that she herself was once a
child. She will understand.
In the early years the athletic mental
forces are just getting under way for
| the long race that is ahead. What
wonder IL at first they indulge in some
freakish gambols?
| This Worcester mother would put a
full stop to this gentle. preliminary
training of the gathering mental pow
ers Of the child and bind them to the
treadmill Of the grownups.
| Impossible.
The warp and wool of the childish
mind is not. built that way. The child
must needs indulge its childish dreams
/ 1t must needs wonder at the doings OF
the genii of the little folk-else it Is
not child. but only a freak of nature
1t seems this too careful Worcester
mother Is afraid lest the 'fancies Of
infancy may foster the superstitions Of
maturity" Is it SO? Has it been 81
of all the hosts of the children of thu
past who have so devoutly bent to thu
wondrous waving of the wondrou
wand of the fairy queens?
The solicitous mother may TAX
away and burn at the stake every fair.
book in the house. Nevertheless ma
ture never yet tamely permitted a cas-
of arrested development.
The budding fancies Of childhoo,
cannot be nipped by human hands
They must grow to their full fruitiol
and flower.
