The Mining Engineer.

The mining engineer has ofter
 been called a "pessimist" by dis gruntled promoters, and we must ad
 init that the vocation of a mining engineer has much in it to bring .
 man to pessimistlc state of mind
 Ia the first place, the field of min ing engineering is the broadest field Ot engineering in the world. It pre- sumes a knowledge Of geology, crys tallagraphy, petrograpy, geography trigOnometry, surveying, of milling equalization, amdlgamation, chlori. nation, concentration, air and oil Notation, lead smelting, copper smelling, matte smelting, and rein. ing, of hydraestics, mechanics, ] thermo-dynamics, and electricity, of the laws of a hundred lands and the customers of d thousand mining dis tricts, of transportation by land, rail, tram and sea: moreover, the engineer is supposed to be ov.as the engineer is supposed to be "wise" to all busi- ness tricks, schemes and devices of clever and deceitful sellers on the one hand, and of shrewd, unscrupu- lous buyers on the other.
 Needless to say the average min- ing engineers inmost conscientious ness is many a time beset with an in nate suspicion that he has not quite encompased all the wisdom which is expected of his profession, and this worm of internal doubt has tendency to gnaw at the springs of optimism
 Then again, much of the business of the average, honest engineer con- schemes which had better ne'er teen and of checking up the log book of argonauts whose ''go lden fleece" was a verb, not a noun, and whose ''fleece'' required only that the lambs be shorn and who depended on the property only as a shipping point for the product.
 Confronted, then, as he is with searching doubts as to his suffciency to at all times live up to the expecta- tions of his clients, and forced to spend considerable part of his time considering the gr oss misrepresenta- tions of others is it any wonder that the optimism of the average mining engineer weakens under the strain? Is it not more to wonder at that few are able to live above the exigencies and preserve a mind free from prejudice and a heart that knows no fear?

Miami Copper is to Have Big Mill.

With nearly 14,OOO,000 tons of ore blocked out, preparations are well under way for the erection of an ex- tensive milling plant on the property of the Miami Copper Co. near Globe.
 According to the plans of the com pany, which have been outlined by Vice-PresidentJ Park Charming, now in that city, preliminary preparations will be made for a 30OOton mill, al though machinery capable of handling only 2O0O tons will be installed in the immediate future. One-half of this machinery will be put in place within the next few months, the balance after test run of six months.
 Active work on the mill will begin in about two months, by which time m extension of the Gila Valley, Globe & Northern Railway will have been completed from Globe into the camp. Structural steel and portion of the machinery have already been ordered and will be on hand when needed.
 A power plant consisting of three 1000 kw. Crocker-W Wheeler 6600 volt a.

Eake Advertisers Rob Publishers.

They're having considerable trouble out west with fake advertisers, so the papers say.
 Slick advertising schemers come to various towns and separate unwary men and their hard-earned shekels with all the cleverness of a shell game manager at circus time.
 Something had to be done, says the Merchants Journal"
 According to statistics kept by the Topeka Commercial club, the merchants of that city were mulct to the extent of s3O,OOO during the year 1908 by fake advertising schemes.
 eff that is the annual contribution of Topeka to the fake advertisers, the aggregate for the fften largest cities in Kansas, would probably reach a quarter of million dollars.
 "Topeka has adopted a plan by which this reckless waste of money is avoided, and there is no reason why the plan should not be adopted by every town in the state.
 "The leading merchants agree among themselves to refuse patron age to all such advertising proposi rions, and refer the solicitor to the merchants committee of the Com mercial club, which committee is the advertising censor for the city.
 gro this committee, the merchants make contributions in proportion to their business interests, and the com mittee decides just what advertising shall be done, and what amount shall be spent. The focal advertising propositions which merit the support of merchants are given a reasonable amount of patronage. The out-of town schemes of professional pro- moters, the business directories, the hotel plaCards, the fake prosperity editions of hand bills, and similar devices to separate merchants from their money are dumped into the scrap heap, and no merchant is annoyed with the necessity of patron izing such schemes simply because some competitor is patronizing them.
 ''It is estimated that out of the 3O,OOO which Topeka spent in 1908 at least S25, 900 will be saved during 1909.
 "Aside from saving money and vexation, the Topeka plan saves time for the merchant and discourages any attempt to put through these fake propositions.-Ch Chicago Con- mercial Union.

NEWS OF THE TERRITORY.

The Gila county supervisors are figuring on bond issue of Sl50,000 to be spent on the roads of that county.
 The territorial board of control is seriously contemplating the installa- tion of an air lift pumping plant at the new prison we'll in Florence.
 The first official examination of em- balmers by the territorial board ot embalmers was held in Phoenix last week pursuant to the new bill passed by the last legislature some time ago.
 Charged with mutilating, altering and defacing certain certificates of stock of the Four Metals Mining com pany, c. IF. Gardner, president of that company, has been arrested, and at preliminary hearing in Tucson was released on s25O bail.
 The fair commission completed the preliminary arrangements of the pro- gram for the fair last week. Shirley Christy was named as secretary and Fen s. Hildreth as superintendent of speed. J. c. Adams was elected chairman and B. A. Packard treas urer.
 F. M. Zuck, we'll known citizen, of Holbrook, died last week after an illness of several weeks. He was past master of the Masonic lodge of the territory. Heart failure due to a stroke of paralysis sustained some months ago is the cause. The re- mains were inferred with Masonic honors.
 A site for the Arizona Home for Pioneers was selected in West Pres colt by committee and the board of control will be notified of the selection immediately. The site was donated by F. M. Murphy, railroad magnate. Plans will be drawn and the work of erecting will commence as soon as the new possession is available.

This pro ductio1 is at the rate of 323, ,000 pounds per annum, which, if main tained, would be the greatest output in the history of the territory.

Mrs. c. f. Allen Heads
Movement for Baths

Headed by Mrs. c.. E. Allen Of this
city and backed by a number of promi-
nent citizens, Il movement is on foot
to establish public baths in Salt Lake
City. Acting on the rumor that an
other franchise IS to be submitted to
the city council for the purpose of Sc
curing the warm springs of Salt Lake
City TO private corporation, petitions
of protest against any such franchise
being granted were circulated some time
since i'll the city, and the few which
have been returned at the present time
show sigDers to the number of 1l05.
Mrs, Allen has received blue prints
of the public baths erected in New
York and Brooklyn during the past few
years, which are of the greatest inter
est to those persons who are interested
in the sanitary conditions Of their own
municipalities. Along these lines the
city of New York has expended in the
past few years moro than $3,000,000
These plans were smaterialized in New
York City by the united and persistent
efforts of the civic leagues and other
organizations of a similar type, and the
movement has reached Salt Lake City.
Those behind the movement state that
any effort of a private corporation to
secure a further franchise on the warm
springs of Salt Lake City will meet with
an organized effort tending TO keep the
springs for public use.
