(, Dt.NOtT CONVERT.

THIS iuCiilF' 3aiHETdNht al tue
way from Idaho. Is going the rounds
.of the press;
Boise. Idaho, July 22-liar-
~ Orchard. murderer of form
'r GoVcrvcrnor Steunenburg of
Idaho, according to his confess
sion. has been baptized at the
penitentiary The service was
read by Elder stewart. seventh
Day Adventist Elder Stewart
made the following statement
after the ceremony. Orchard
is a deyout convert and feels his
sins have been forgiven. He
told me that he had fully deter
mined TO commit suicide if sent
up for life, but that in his faith
he had found consolation and
was content to remain behind
the prison walls for the rest of
his natural life.
Orchard confessed that be had
been instrumental in the killing OF
twenty-eight men, he had been a
firebug. an ore thief, a dynamiter, a
garroter, a wife desertcr, a traitor
to all concerned and in the end to
escape the moose he implicated 9TH
ers in his foul crimes. Now he is a
devout convert and feels his sins
have been forgiven Jesus of Naz-
areth, we are told, pardoned a re-
pentant thief, but Harry Orchard
ran the gamut of crime. He was as
merciless, according to his own con-
fession as a hungry man-eating I'll
ger in the jungles of India In his
youth he applied the torch for finan-
cial gain: he robbed for gain; he
dynamited for gain; he murdered
for gain; he married for gain; he
betrayed his fellows for gain; and
now for the promise of eternal
is "a devout convert for gain and
feels that his sins have been for
given" If the doctrine of atonement
and the plan of salvation has harp
and halo in reserve for this Idaho
degenerate then there is hope for
all men who have lived decent lives
without subscribing to dogmas, can
ons and creeds.
In Idaho the writer was told by
men close to the throne, that a par
don awaits Harry Orchard at an
early day. In his testimony against
w. d. Haywood Meyer and Petit
bone. he went the limit and the
jury verdicts of acquittal were
great disappointment to the citizens
of Idaho who We're arrayed against
the Western Federation of Miners
and who insist, to this day, that the
assassination of Governor Steunen-
burg was planned in the inner cir
Gle of the miners organization
Steunenburg murder is unavenged,
the man who admits that he fixed
land fired the bomb says his sins
have been forgiven by the Great God
on high and expects a pardon from
the rulers of Idaho. The Western
Federation power has been broken
in the mountain state and Haywood
has been discredited and stripped OF
power by the men who are now pow
erful in the councils of this organi.
cation, which was at one time almost
invincible in the mining regions OF
the west.

The Denton News in speaking of
the agitation for good roads says
The good roads question, strange
TO say, is being agitated and talked
about more throughout the length
and breadth OF the State of Texas at
this time than perhaps ever before,
and yet there never has been a win
ter or summer in which the sorry
roads were as good as they have
been during the past year, The rains
have been so few and 50 scant that
about the greatest impeachment to
progress was the sand of which there
is little 10 be found in the great
black land belt counties of the state
where most of the agitation for good
roads and better roads is in pro-
gress. The agitation means some
thing. we believe, and that is that
the people Of Texas are not going to
be satisfied with roads that are good
only in good weather but are going
to insist on roads that Will be good
all the time"

MOVING Ar CAMP OF JEsSUP.

\ Benedetti. who recently return
ed from the Jessup district, where he
had been inspecting his mining inter
ests. is very much enthused over the
results of his Investigations and he
says that il any camp in the state
has future it is surely Jessup, says
the Lovelock Review.
Il frequently visit the district,
said Mr. Benedict. and on each oe-
casion | can always notice vast i'm
provement. There are more proper
ties working and more men employed
now than there has been any time
during the past winter months. Ey-
erybody is going ahead with devel-
opment work and in many instances
fattering results are being obtained.
Were it not for the shortage of ready
money the Jessup district would be
one of the busiest in the entire state.
However, those who are in position
are rushing work and all are look
ing forward TO a substantial boom
which is sure To come in the very
near future.
Zone of the most notable strikes
made in the district recently is that
ON the Churchill property. c. NRan-
dell. one of the large stockholders
and who is managing development
work, stated that the pay streak IN
the bottom of the shaft has opened TO
a width of twenty inches, and as
depth is attained it showed every in
dication of widening. An average
sample WAS recently taken from this
vein and the high return of s37S.29
in gold WAS obtaised. Some of the
best specimen ore ever taken from
working in the camp Is from
the Churchill. The new find has
created no little excitement in the
camp and it has had stimulating

INTERESTING COPPER RECORD.
Tells Something of the Success
Which Goes With the Industry.

The copper mines of Lake Superior
have produced from 1916 to date A.
! 439,650,000 pounds of copper
Several of the early mines, operated
sixty years ago, paid large dividends
from mass copper. Ont returned It's
capitalization in three years. From
1919 until this time the copper mines
OF the Lake Superior region have
paid in dividends $163.562,5 75. This
sum in 100000 in excess of the
declared dividends of all the mines
of East India for 100 years.
A notable fact in connection with
the shareholders of the Lake Super
ior copper mines is that they own
large areas of mineralized lands In
other states and territories than In
Michigan. very interesting fact
is that the copper mine operators of
Michigan in the investments in west
ern and foreign mining areas have
scored many more bonanzas than
have accrued to mine operators in
other parts of the country who have
taken hold of mines distant from the
location of their original mines
With few exceptions the most
profitable copper mines in Arizona,
Utah and Mexico were located and
developed by Michigan copper men.
The big error in judgment on a
bonanza copper mine was made by
the very flower of the copper mining
fraternity of Michigan in turning
down what afterwards became the
profitable Calumet q Arizona mines
in Arizona. After the great mining
sharps from the best mines of the
Lake Superior region and several
sagacious copper and brass mill OPP
orators In Connecticut had pro-
nounced the Calumet & Arizona tract

his fellows, started in to see what
