It is not so very long ago that the Copper Craze" had the inning world in it's grasp and the red metal occupied the center of the stage, almost to the exclusion of all other metals. The cry was for copper, and silver, and lead were pushed over into little obscure corner of public attention. Then came the crash, the low prices and an over oaded market. Copper took a big tumble and has only slightly rceov- cred as yet.
 The essential feature in connection with the present-day copper mining is cheap production, and in most cases this is closely associated with low grade propositions. The obvious req son for this is that cheap production necessarily depends on extensive oper- ations and the low-grade propositions are usually of a large ealiber. With the metal above 20 cents many mines could be proitably worked, which, with the market below b cents are now in a state of enforced idleness. Tine demand for the low-cost coppers, and therefore low grade, is materially increasing and several such proposi- tions are now being exploited.
 1t has been said that without the financial difficulties which have beset the couLtry the market prices of cop- per would have decliped. The supply was becoming greater than the demand. Under these conditions pro- duction has been curtailed to such an extent that the reserve stock of the metal has been practically used up. Industrial progress will create strong demand for copper, and to meet this demand the production will be pro- portionately increased. If this demand is strong enough we will see copper climb to a level which will permit many of the smaller propositions being
 orked. If not, the production will be restricted to those properties which can be operated at a low cost and upon large scale.
 The coming year should see great activity In copper mining but it will be many years, if ever, before the craze will be so general as to over shadow other forms of metal mining. - Salt Lake Mining Review.

one of the aspirants for the guber-

Egan. According to a Brookings
paper which came to our table last
week, Egan, after intimating that
a member of Mr.. Barackman's
church was not above reproach,
made insinuations against the char
acter of the gentleman himself, just
because the clergyman defended his
parishioner in letter to a friend,
The minister wisely placed the mat
ter in the hands of the governing
body of his particular denomination
and when the investigating commit
tee demanded of Egan the proof of
his claims they were calmly told that
there was nothing to them and that
the statements were only made ''be-
cause people are always going after
me-" The incident never touched
Mr.. Barackman, but is likely to
prove a boomerang for Egan.

The Granite Falls Journal calls at
tention to a funny error which has
been given state wide circulation on
account of its sensational nature.
Twenty-Five years ago the journal
printed an account of several cases
of leprosy that existed in Yellow
Medicine county at that time. The
item was republished in the Journal
this year under the heading "Twen-
tv-fye years ago." and some ex-
changes clipped it without noticing
the heading and it has since appeared
in a score of other papers including
The Gazette, all Of whom were prob
ably innocent of any attempt to mis-
lead. The explanation recalls the
fact that when the item was first
published there was much talk of
the danger of leprosy being trans
planted from the orient to this coun-
try, but after all these years, lepro-
sy is unhead of in this state so far
as we have any knowledge, and to
this fact is ascribed the wide publ
city given the misplaced account of
it's temperance at Granite Falls.

And now the doctors are turning
their attention to a scientific treat
ment of the crouch. We had s,ls-
pected for some time that an in
growing temper was at the bottom
of good many cases of chronic in
validism and recently one DR.. E.
Nevin Stump confirmed that suspi-
cion by paper which he read
to a gathering of the medical fra
ternity. DR.. Stump said that thore
is no doubt that men in a temper
suffer from a toxic poisoning of the
blood, and that just as sure as indi-
gestion will produce a bad temper,
so bad. temper "is likely to disar-
range the system. cause attacks of
Indigestion, disarrangement of the
circulatory system. which may have
far-reaching and disastrous results"
The moral is, Mr.. Crouch, the next
time you feel like kicking the cat,
throwing the dishes or cutting some
member of your household, pause
and consider whether you can afford
to poison your system and poison
the happiness of your household or
your friends at the same time. Take
our word::::for it, it wont pay. A
cheerful temper is better than med
icine or wealth, and there is no bet
ter asset for the man in business
than a sunny disposition.

TEACHER BECOMES EDITOR.
Miss Jean Patterson Now is Manager of
Spirit Lake Herald.

The seventh woman in Iowa to
venture into the Businesses of a
newspaper office to become sole ed
itor and manager is Miss Jean Pat
terson, who for two years has been
teaching in the fourth grade at the
Irving school at Sioux City. Miss
Patterson has purchased the Spirit
Lake Herald from A. r. Carter and
took possession yesterday.
When it is known that Miss Pat
terson comes from family of news
paper folk it will not appear so as
founding that she should enter the
work. One brother is connected
with the Estherville Enterprise and
another is editor of Wyoming
newspaper. Miss Patterson is %
years of age and has three brothers
and a sister.
AS a teacher she has met with
marked success. Her first expert
was at Estherville, where she re-
NAMED two years, going to Redwood
Falls, Mimi, where she taught two
years. She left Redwood Falls to
accept position in Sioux City. Her
high school education was complet-
ed at Algona, Ia, and later she at
tended the University of Minnesota.
Miss Patterson's friends in Sioux
City are confident that she will make
a success of newspaper business on
account Of her inherent grit and en-
terprise. The Spirit Lake Herald is
an eight-page weekly publication is
sued every Friday. 1t was estab-
lished in 1894 and has been main
