1t is pitiable thing to see young
man whining over his lot in life, and
excusing indifference and inaction be-
cause of hard luck or some cruel fate
which has put stumbling blocks in his
way. No matter what your environ
ment, or what you may be called upon
to go through, face it like man, with
out whining. Turn your face to the
sun, your back to the shadows and
look the world in the face without
wincing. Make the most of your sit
uation. See the beauties in it and not
the ugly features. This is the way
to improve an unfortunate environ

NEW YORK, Dec. GA Washing
ton. dispatch to the New York Sun.
says that there has grown up in<
Washington during the last few years
a spying system which emulates the
systems in st. Petersburg and Moscow.
In the corridors OF hotels, in clubs,
at social functions, guests; big and
little, find it to be Of the utmost i'm.
portance to practice discretion in the
keenest, sense Of the word. Many
scores Of instances Of surveillance,
authorized and volunteered, are told,
and in all departments Of the govern
ment the distinctions between hidden
methods have never been SO unwhole-
some. ..E .s,..-.... ..> - -
:. An Odious Necessity. 8,
It has been we'll said: 49,. ,.->.
Spying Is one OF the odious ne
cessities Of government in every great
autocracy, and the need of it be-
comes greater as the legal inhibittons
and requirements become more numer-
GUS. A government performing the
functions Of regulation and restraint
that Mr.. Roosevelt believes essential
to the promotion of the peoples hap
piness must have more informers,
stool pigeons and spies than one of
inferior functions. TO accomplish its
objects a paternal and 1meddlesome
administration needs inquirers, agents
and investigators in great numbers.
They must watch the corporations,
officers Of companies and individuals
closely, constantly and in hidden ways
to get the facts necessary for the en-
forcenent OF the laws. The probable
ity that body Of such men will be
used for Improper purposes is appar-
emit. Yet without secret service UNI
der perfect discipline the espionage
cannot be maintained.",
Senators and members of the House
Of representatives have helt the rigors
Of the spying system. Candid discus
sion Of public questions or politics is
not to. be expected under. those cir
cumstances. While the personal lives
and the. domestic affairs Of some of
these senators and. Representatives
have been inquired into and their per-
sonal habits have been made the sub
ject of official discussion, the prin-
cipal purpose of the surveillance has
been to ascertain no wtl1is or that SEN
ator or representative really felt to-
ward the administration and its poll

sentative have had no fear of. the

OFF IN COPPER SALES NOT UNUSUAL At
THIS TIME OF YEAR, RESUMPTION AFTER FIRST

The copper metal market has
again fallen into a very dull state
with only a small amount of new
business, says the Boston Financial
News. Whether or not the recent
heavy buying vas due to the ex-
pectation Of the early elimination of
the proposed copper merger or to
that periodic extra demand for metal
is hard to say but at any rate the
price of copper was considerably adj
vanced and is still holding above Is
cents.
Even when the metal was selling
at much higher prices than it is now
the situation was characterized by
periods of active buying followed by
the usual lull and it is only natural
to expect that the general habits Of
the trade are still an important fac
tor in the rise and fall Of the price.
mere is unquestionably a large de-
mand and a large consumption of
the metal by the big manufacturers
who use a given amount in their
regular line of business, but such
interests always buy In large
amounts and well in advance of re-
quirements. In fact, some OF the
largest lake producers have depend
ed right along on the trade of their
customers. There Is another class of
consumers who buy only when they
think the market offers the best OPP
portunity and they frequently rush
in with orders because they feel that

the next twenty or twenty-five feet.
Stringers have already been cut
which are from two to six inches in
width and which give good PAN

Fred Muscott, who has charge of
the work for Frank Clark of Berke-
ley, whose property adjoins the
above group, is sinking an incline
shaft on a strong body of free mill
ing gold. J.. H. Lockman, who has
spent the greater part of his life in
the copper mines of the Lake Sup

SO far done in the Clark ground, in
dicates a very encouraging future.
This property lies to the south and
west of the DeVoe and Currey Kick
apoo group, which on the surface
shows extensively in copper pyrite
ore. A tunnel has been run on the
Kickapoo, which has crosscut a
body of copper pyrite, twenty-six
feet wide, at a depth of forty-five
feet. This product averages better
than . per cent copper, and shows
also some values in gold and silver.

Goldfield Cons. Adopts Innovation In
Accounting.

GOLDFIELD, New, Dec. 16.-No-
tees are being sent out from the Of
fees of the Goldfield Consolidated
Mines Co., informing stockholders
that only those who are of record
at the close of business on Decem-
Der 10 shall be entitled to vote at
the annual meeting to be held at
Evanston, Wyo., on Jan. 10, 1910.
The notice also contains the infor-
nation that the books of the ON
pany will not be closed, as previous
ly announced, and as has been the
custom with mining companies and
transfers of stock may proceed with
out interruption during the dividend
period. This step, which is a dis
tinct innovation in methods of hand
ling stock transactions, is rendered
possible by a new system of account
ing which has been adopted by the
big merger company.
The few changes which it was nee
essary to make at the 100-stamp mill
