While Mayor Tweedy is reforming
the City Of Lewiston be had better
start in and have a little of the graft
cut out for the good Of that city,
and in this matter me Le~iston com
mercial club might do well to render
him all assistance in their power.
While a majority Of the people there
no doubt do not endorse this system
which some are doing there, they
should get 10 and show the people
they do not approve Of it, otherwise
they will have to continue TO suffer
the blame as the rest of them.
AT the circus yesterday some Of
these injudicious grafters running
the automobiles we're catching all
suckers they could and charging
them all they could possibly get,
thinking no doubt that would be their
last chance at the victim. The day
vas extremely hot and many who
were very tired would take this
means Of travelling for few blocks
rather than walk through a scorch-
ing sun and expecting to pay reas-
enable sum, but not expecting to be
robbed in broad daylight but when |
II came TO settling up they we're
charged almost any price. The reg /
ular price seemed to be dollar for
the round trip from the business dis
trict to the circus, a distance of one
mile. bat in some cases it was more.
Many complaints we're made and
many said they never would go back
again unless they really had to.
This very system is what is hurt
ing that city more than anything
else and unless the honest people
lake the matter up and see that 1t is
stopped, they never can hope to be
much better than they are now. Hun
areds Of people would go there at
different times of the year from all
sections Of the county but refuse to
10 SO for this reason. Still these
'ery same grafters kick about out
'ide people working against the city
md they themselves are doing all in
heir power to make everybody dis
yusted with the city they possibly
an by their injudicious graft. 4,

Reports receive from the several
sections of the country where China
pheasant we're released this spring
indicate the birds are doing well and
in some localities the second brood
is now Matched. The first brood is
about as large as prairie chickens
and are found with the males, while
the younger birds are being cared
for by the females.
While the China pheasants have
no resemblance to grouse or the nat
i've pheasants, the deputy game ward
ems are cautioning hunters to exercise
care to prevent the killing of the pro-
tected birds. The season for grouse
and native pheasants opens next Sun
day, August IS, and it is expected
large number of hunters will take the
fields early Sunday morning.
The deputy wardens are also tax
ing steps to protect the prairie chick
ems which have been placed on the
protected list for a peroid of two
years. The farmers generally are
cooperating with the deputy game
wardens in their Efforts to protect the
China pheasants and prairie chick
ems and any violations of the Law
will be promptly Tribune.

The shipments have been large and

for the account of domestic consum-
ers Our Lake correspondent writes
us regarding the situation there:
Two weeks ago ! visited the Copper
Range docks. | never saw so much
copper on hand. The dock was load
ed with the metal and there were
cars as far as could see waiting 10
be unloaded as soon as the dock
could furnish room. | should judge
from careful computation that
there must have been over three mil
lion pounds of copper on the dock
and on the trains possibly more than
that II would frighten the most en-
thusiastic optimist Yet when | saw
all that copper melt away in two
boat-loads and one OF the boats took
on two aud a half million pounds, l
realized something of the copper
consumption of the country. That
copper was sold and | understand
that shipping orders are already in
on lots OF The metal that has not
been cast as yet | notice one thing
about the arscnical copper which
comes from the south range mines
and that is the large amount of 1t
that Is going 10 foreign ports. II
this was shipped In ingots | would
suspect Il Of going into storage for
market manipulatiye purposes. but !
observe that it is mostly IN enormous
blocks. some of Them weighing two
tons. aud these must be 70 fill certain
special orders for rolling into sheet
copper. Incidentally IL IS 10 the credit
of the Michigan smelling plant. much

say thar in no other plantin thas Mich

sort of casting without unusual pre-
variations and extraordinary EFFORT.
Yet two ton copper slabs are turned

handling the job and this big plant
can handle all the copper that could
be piled up on the Copper Range
dock here al Houghton in Just ten
DAYS of ordinary running SO YOU
see that dock load OF copper Ism [
really such an enormous quantity
after all At the other plants IN
the district there is little metal on
hand. In fact all of them have been
we'll cleared up and Lake shipments
are being made as rapidly as the
copper comes from the smeiters
Most of the rail shipments are now
going To western points. Practically
E all of the metal from the Dollar ian
