Pensions and the interest on public debt are egaces of

That the charge is willingly borne does not however d.

The other two big items what pay for the upkeep
OF the specter
All that this great government spends for adminstra
ton for justice for education for agriculture for pure
food for the preservation of it's forests for the struggle
against disease for maintaining it's commercial relations
FOR pleasing its neghbors for collecting its Dues for
searching its resources for stocking its streams light

And the expenditure for the navy is ike unto it.
reasonable amount for laying specter is all very WELL
but twothrds of the national revenuesthat seems Just
the least bit out of proportion.

ARMY and navy

Referring to the circumstances
surrounding the Constabulary NUT
my the Cablc-Ncws American of Ma
Mia says:
ut has been learned that the
military authorities at Division
Headquarters have received all the
information regarding the actions OF
Captain Allen Walker. Philippine
Scouts, Civil Governor Of Davao, dur
ing the late mutiny of part Of the
Philippine Constabulary at that place
and 1t Is considered that, from
military point of view, Governor
Walker displayed good judgment;
that his action in assembling the
planters and returning to Davao on
the 9TH OF June enabled the be-
sieged whites to sustain themselves
on the Sth, and that the aid thus
brought them was the deciding fac
tor that resulted in the repulse OF
the Constabulary muitnecrs.
In this connection, II must be re-
membeled that Captain Walker was
performing absolutely no military
duty while acting as Civil Governor
of Dayao. Captain Walker is an old
soldier with a long and excellent
record, and the fact that he COM
ported himself during this trying
period In an admirable manner and
did the right thing at the right time,
Is but what his many friends in and
ont of the service expected of him."
Information from Washington an
nounces that the School of Musketry
at Monterey Calf ornia, has recon-
mended to the War Department that
steps be taken for the introduction
Of the adjustable features OF the
Roscoe sight to the service rife. The
sight Is the Invention of Lieutenant
David l.. Roscoe, LIST Cavalry, who
Is now in Manila on duty with the
Signal Corps.
Lieutenant Roscoe is one OF the
'h'H' 'hi'ieht JuhioI oHh'cIo HoW
serving in this division. He COM
menced his military career by en-
listing In Troop c, 4th Cavalry, In
April, 1899, and participated with
that famous regiment in many OF Its
hard fights and hikes during the
Philippine instruction. He was
sent 70 the United States suffering
with dysentery and fever as result
of hardships endured in that cam
paign and narrowly escaped with his
life. He was commissioned End
Lieutenant in the regular service In
February, 1901, and assigned to the
LIST Cavalry, with which organiza-
ton he has served ever since.

SU N N A RY D F
COPPER FACTS
PRODUCTION OF COPPER IN
UNITED STATES FOR 1908
OUTPUT At THE LEADING
CaMPS-AVERAG PRICE.

In a very complete review of 1905
in the copper world. the Boston FL
nancial News says The News fig
ures that the production of copper in
the United States for the year 1908.
amounted to 1900, 900 pounds, an
increase of about 5000, 900 pounds.
or per cent over that of 1907. The
production in 1907 was S6S,996,49l
pounds. or 4S,So9,191 pounds less
than in 1906, which was the largest
falling of in the copper output in
the history of the country. For the
last four years the copper produced
in the United States compares as fol-
lows. December. 1905. estimated.
The White Pine news. [volume] (Ely, Nev.) 1906-1910, 1909-04-08

Ii will be seen in the above that
the 1908 production was not up to
that of 1906, by 13,S00,0O0 pounds,
but 1926, 200 pounds in excess of
1905 The total available supply of
the metal, which includes 213,764,-
900 pounds imports. amounted to APP
proximately ,117, 764.000 pounds as
compared with about 1867 100000
pounds in 1907, and l.143,649,000
in 1906.
OF the total available supply. COL
Psi 600 pounds, or 52.S per cent. was
exported. while of the domestic pro-
duetion 367, 100000 pounds, or As
per cent was consumed in the United
States. Excess exports over imports
were 437,497,000 pounds. Total
consumption and exports totaled l.
0IS.261 200 pounds, or 99.503. 600
less than the total available supply.
Add to this the 1875, 100000 pounds
carried over from last year and the
surplus copper now on hand is APP
proximately PA. 1903, 900 pounds.
During the month of January,
1908, the local consumption took
1914 per cent of the available supply
whiel the exports took over 121 per
cent, making an excess consumption
over supply at the beginning of the
year of over 1871 per cent We es-
innate that during December local
consumption reduced the supply by
30 per cent while the exports con
sumed about 3.5 per cent of the sup
ply for the month. leaving about 20
per cent of accumulation. During the
year, therefore. the domestic con-
sumption increased in proportion to
the supply over 10 per cent. while
The White Pine news. [volume] (Ely, Nev.) 1906-1910, 1909-04-08

the exports were reduced relatively
more than 76 per cent. The buying
of copper abroad during low prices
is evident and the Importance of the
foreign demand when the supply of
the metal is excessive Is also made
clear.
The excess domestic production
over consumption in January was re-
dueed To 80 per cent. For the
IL months the average excess was
59.4 per cent. The exports fell OFF,
for the exports for December We're
only about two-thirds the proportion
of those of January, whereas the inn
ports were two thirds larger in De-
cember. In this connection IL is in
teresting 10 glance at the average
price OF spot copper at the beginning
and at the end of the ! 2 months. The
average price for January was less
than IA cents. whereas during De-
cember the figure has been 10 date
about 1867 cents. The lowest av-
erage price of the metal for any
month was 1890 cents for May. For
the year we figure the average price
as 1874 cents, which compares with
20 cents in 1907. and 1917 cents in
1906.
In the production of copper at the
various camps Arizona heads the list
for the second time with a produc-
tion of approximately 900, 900. 900
pounds. an increase of over 43,200,-
900 pounds. or II per cent over the
year 1907. Although the Butte
camp produced 267, 700. 900 pounds.
Or 97 00O 600 mounds more than i'm
1907 the territory. came a long way
from making up the reduction of
/ 0,000.0 600 pounds in the year 1907
from the 1906 output Montana, there
fore. remains in second place. How
ever, the Butte mines are able to
show 44,000,000 pounds more than
the Lake Superior properties. which
We estimate to have produced 223,-
$4,000 pounds, or about 2.177.000
pounds less than in the previous year.
