Millionaire Mine Owner Enters Into
Spokane Rate Case.

-
SPOKANE, Wash, July 9.@Gra.
ham B. Dennis, a millionaire mine
and warehouse owner, who operated
the first electric railway in the North
west in Spokane and the third on
the continent, has issued an open let
ter to the people of the Inlaud En-
pire and interior cities west of Dem
yer, urging them to insist upon the
enforcement of the original order by
the Interstate Commerce Commission
in the Spokane rate case. He also
declares that the future of the in
terror points lies in the institution
of supplementary suits to LOO
other commodity rates in dispute.
He says that the strongest political
influence is being brought to bear
by the Pacific coast to secure a mod
ification of the recent order, adding:
apparently, contrary to the pro-
visions of the law, the Spokane case
seems to be merging into a stage
where the railroads and the coast
cities are attempting to fix the rates
for the commission, or at least to
act as the commissions advisors
over the protests of the complain
ants. In view of this every interior
town should send one or more del
egates to the hearing at Washington,
d. c. June 8, and advise its congress
sional representative to support Spo-
kane in this battle, in the outcome of
which the entire intermountain
country is vitality concerned

COLLECTING
Committee Working for Display ut
Mining Congress-.

COMMITTEE composed of Mayor Me-
Danold and Messrs Lakenan. Plate,
Castle, Hoag and Bache, of the
University club. is working with all
possible zeal to make a collection of
the mineral of this coun-
ty to be sent to Goldfield. where the
American Mining Congress will meet
during the latter part of September
So far, the committee has met with
unqualified success but there are a
number of outlying districts which
have not as yet SEN in any of their
products and it is the wish of the
committee that they take immediate
steps in this line, as the time for
making the collection is growing
short. Exhibits of coal and oil will
be appreciated and those having
properties containing such, will nave
an exceptionally good means of adj
vertising their products by sending
specimens and samples to the COM
mittee. There is no district in the
county which can afford to miss the
opportunity of exhibiting their re-
sources, as the congress will contain
all of the prominent mining men of
the country, many of whom are now
looking for investments and 1t is
quite possible that every district in
the county, which makes a display
will have numerous investors visit
those sections, with the view of be-
coming interested. 1t is the inten-
ton of the committee to make the
exhibit from White Pine county, the
largest and most complete of any in
the state. Hon. S. w. Bedford will
be present at the congress and will

COPPER A SHADE
F|RMER
ENCOURAGING In FACE OF
LARGE INCREASE IN PRODUC-
TON OF RED METAL FOR THE
MONTH OF JULY.

The position of the stock market
today was very strong. There were
weak spots here and there, but TAX
ing the market as a whole prices
we're considerably stronger. The
floating supply of stock is small.
There seemed to be an evening up
process today, in which the dividend
paying stocks advanced, while some
of the Others declined. Leading
operators on the street feel very con-
fident that the next important move
on the market will be a strong adj
n OF all classes of stocks. Rail-
road and Industrial earnings are in
creasing and general business con-
ditions all over the country are
rapidly improving, and it is be-
lieved that there will be a large
amount of money in the next ninety
days invested in stocks. All the new
bond issues are meeting with ready
sales. Copper is a shade firmer, this
in the face of the large increase or
production of the red metal for the
month of July. The consumption
is also increasing and rapidly gain
ing on production. 1t is very prob
able that the market has touched the
bottom prices, and that from now on
a demand for stocks in the east and
the activity and prices will 500 find
their natural levels. Ely Central was
a shade lower but the latter part of
the day strengthened and was more
active. Mason Valley and Inspira-
ton were weak. GirouX was the
feature of today's market in the Ely
coppers, large blocks of this stock
changed hands at $7.75 with the
heaviest transactions around the
$500 mark.
Ely coppers at these prices should
be bought on every reaction, all of
them being excellent buys and are
sure to make good profits for hold
ers of any of these stocks, some of
them especially can be bought at
remarkably low prices, and will
eventually sell four or five times
higher.
