BRYAN LOSES IN NEBRASKA
Democratic Primaries Overwhelming
Iy Against County Option.

Omaha, July 25.-Bryan is beaten
and turned down by his Nebraska
home folks. Primary elections held
in As counties of the state Saturday
render absolutely sure the defeat of
Bryan and his county option fight.
With 80 counties controlling Ill
votes yet to hear from, the number
of delegates instructed against Bry-
an and county option is 442, and of
the uninstructed delegates many have
expressed themselves as being against
Bryan. Only 444 votes are necessary
to control and the 442 instructed
against, together with those who have
stated openly that they opposed Bry-
an, gives the anti-Bryanites clear
majority and insures the turning
down of Bryan at the state conven-
ton next Tuesday. OF the 63 coun-
ties reporting Mr.. Bryan carried only
five, one of these being the county in
which he lives.

Where the dusky rose vine clings
To and fro Diana swings;
Out-with lingering shadows crown'd,
In-the shadows fold her round.
Swinging, swinging to and fro,
To and fro.
From her hammock, if she tries,
She can read the evening skies;
Scarlet cloud and golden ray
Write the words l long to say;
Swinging, swinging to and fro,
Does she know?
Round her hammock each breeze blows
Warm with clover scent or rose,
Every touch of tenderness
Carries to her my caress;
Swinging, swinging to and fro,
Does she know?
Ger her hammock, moonlight streams,
Still she fingers, wrapt in dreams,
Tones elusive does she hear?
Does she know Love watches near?
Swinging, swinging to and fro,

GREAT GROWTH IN

Pigments made directly from lead ana

VARIOUS METHODS OF
REDUCING COPPER OUTPUT

Messrs, Thompson. Towle e. Co say:
Different companies are using divers
methods to bring about q curtailment in
copper production. The Anaconda COM
pany, In Butte, the largest producer. has
closed down several OF its shafts 'for
repairs" and in many OF its other mines
are producing a low grade Of ore. in
handling almost as large a tonnage as
formerly. This may add 1c per pound
to the cost OF production. but on the
other hand the company is getting &c
more for Its copper, and the Anaconda
managers are not working for the pres
ent but for the future.
On the other hand. some OF the Cole
Ryan properties located outside of Butte
have suspended Sunday work at their
output
The Utah Copper company has removed
number of its steam shovels TO the
top OF the mountain on Boston Consoll-
dated territory, where they are now en-
gagged In removing overburden. and have
thus reduced its ore tonnage from 16 900
to 10000 tons daily. or the equivalent OF
a restriction IN copper output OF 100000
pounds per month,
One who is In close touch with copper
affairs says:
1.-The Nevada Consolidated Is opening
another big steam shovel pit, and is re-
pairing Its furnaces at the Steptoe smell
ter. during which time its production is
reduced about 100000 pounds per
month.
Your recent statement that mines with
I.0o0, 600 900 pounds OF annual copper
production are curtailing ouput, Is In full
accord with the facts, for I have seen
the official figures which show such to be
the case"

SALE OF STALL LEASE
HAS BEEN CONFIRMED

One OF the largest mining deals ever
made in Nevada was closed at National
late Monday afternoon when the Stall
brothers bonanza lease was sold to the
National Mining company OF Nevada For
two weeks there have been rumors of
"A pending sale. but the interested par
ties would give no confirmation OF the
reports that negotiations were going on.
The transfer was made at o'clock Mon
day afternoon, when the company took
charge and nearly all of the large force
of men that has been employed on the
lease was laid of. says the Humboldt
Star,
The parties interested will not give out
anything In regard TO the amount which
was paid for the lease. but IL is GER
tain that the price paid for the lease was
a very large one. AS Is well known, the
Stall brothers lease has been one Of the
sensations in the mining history Of Ne
vada. Tied UP by litigation for over six
months, the lease may be said to have
been IN active operation for only the past
three months. in which period II has

entirely new generation. He is recruited
from the bank. the office. tho farm, the
sheep and cattle range and from every
walk Of life. He may not know the
difference between rhyolite and diorite,
and to him porphyry may be anything
