ltions for the Manchester Ship Canal
and on the rev railway in the Soudan-
| in which country, by the bye, he also
fought as soldier in the Soudanese
war. Despite the fact that ne will net
sit with the Labor party, he. has strong
socialistic opinions and is one of the
most picturesque fgues in the House

Union.
Whilst ranking in no way as la

ed life in candle factory, became a.;
iron and steel workers and a Trade
Unionist. He came to the front dur
| ing the Trafalgar Square unemployed
riots of 1885 and the great dock strike.
He entered Parliament as a Liberal
member for Battersea in 1852. He Is
! a man of exceptional attachments, a
powerful speaker, and life long
abstainer. His rise in the Liberia
party has been rapid. He was appoint
ed president Of the Local Government
board in 1905 with a salary of $4,000
per annum and was the first working
man to hold Cabinet rank in England.
His vigorous administration led to
exposuers of grave abuses in poor law
administration, His salary is now
$25, 900 per annum. He is member
of the Privy Council and Right Hon
orable.
He is regarded by his former Social
list colleagues as traitor" but I'M
deniably his work in the House of
Commons has been of great use to the
industrial workers of this country. He
entered Parliament in the days before
the Labor Party was formed and he
had made his name before that Party
made its appearance i'll the House. 1t
was therefore too much to ask such
dominant personality to give UP the
position he had fought for and won
to take subordinate place in small
party.

THE STEADY GROWTH
OF SOCIALISM

The name of the socialist party first
appeared upon the ballot in the United
States, in 1888, when it polled 2,Ooa
votes. In the twenty-one years which
have since elapsed it has progressed
steadily, showing these totals:
1890. 1881; 1892, 21,157; 1884
SO, 1s3; 1896, 1864; 1898, 91,749; 1900
9s, AT; 1902, 225, 1903; 1904. 4O3,Sss,
1906, over 100000; 1908, over 100000
|It will be some time before all tie
figures for 1910 are available, but Il is
known that the vote scored large in
crease all over the country. In New
York it grew from $4,000 to $4,000; in
California, from 10000 to over $4,000
1t is probable that this years total
reached the million mark. Milwar
kee elected the first Socialist congress
man on November 8.

W1AtC VIC al IL Lie KA1tu0L VI The gen
eral election, rather more than half
the members of the House Of Com
mons by this time having been elect
ed. The apparent result will be to
return the Liberal Government, head
ed by Asquith, Lloyd George, and
Winston Churchill, to power with
scarcely any change in its old ma
jority of 124. So far % Labor mem
bers have been elected, only one or
two Of them SPECIFICALLY adding to
their political designation the words
land Socialist" This is net gain of
one seat to Labor, three having been
lost and four won. If no change takes
place in the forthcoming Labor con-
tests, the Labor party will return to
the House of Commons forty-one
strong. A few brief notes on the var
ious Labor members may not be out
of place.
One interesting Labor win was that
of Will Crooks at Woolwich, London
Crooks is man fifty-eight years of
age, having been born and living his
boyhood days in a London workhouse.
At nine years of age he was appren-
ticed to cooper and as a young man
he became prominent in the Labor
movement. He has sat on all kinds
of London municipal bodies and in
March, 1908, won Parliamentary
seat at Woolwich--a seat which had
been held just before by Admiral Lord
Charles Beresford. Crooks retained
the seat in the 1907 general election,
but last January he was defeated by
Major Adams. He has now regained
it.
A new Labor member who has Sc
cured new seat for Labor is George
Lansburys who will sit for Bow and
Bromley of London. He is well known
in his district, having sat on many
municipal bodies. He is an authority
on Labor colonies and in recent years
has become partner in a timber firm.
He was the Labor candidate speci-
f1cally praised by Lloyd George in one
Of his recent big campaign speeches
in which the Chancellor of the Exche-
quer referred to my friend Lans-
bury" and exhorted all Liberals in
Bow and Bromley to vote for him.
Another Labor gain is il the mining
district of Whitehaven where I, Rich
tardson, Durham miner, beata Con-
sentative sitting member. Richard
son has been a member of the Execn.
| tive of the Durham Miners Federation
since 1897, and of the Durham Miners
Cancellation Board since its formation.
@. W. Bowerman, the General Sec
rotary of the London Society of Com
positors, has retained his old seat at
lDeptford, London, which he first Sc
cured in 1906.
Attercliffe, Shefield, was retained
/ by Joseph Pointer who is an en-
gineer's pattern maker and received

The above statement was made to The

chief engineer Of the Hclnze interests,
when told reports from Butte were to the
effect that Colin Mcintosh had resigned
as general manager Of The Ohio Copper

this position. Mr.. Mcintosh left for the

the time that he was 10 retire from the
active management OF the Ohio. although

him. Mr. Frank Is engineer OF note.
and numbers his Utah friends by the
score. During the absence OF Mr.. Nc
Intosh In Europe last summer Mr.. Frank
took charge OF the Ohio affairs locally.

Mcintosh is away.
The Ohio Copper company Is doing fine
work bolh In mine and mill Tho mill
is treating an average of 100 tons a
day. while 1900 tons was the average at

ties of tho plant were pretty we'll shown

of 2096 tons was made In twenty -four
hours, The ore is being concentrated on
the ratio of thirty 10 one, the conccn-

AS Is we'll known, tho Ohio Copper mill
Is only one half completed the work
having been interfercd with during the

Copper Producers Figures for

Domestic Deliveries and the

low Last Month.

The Copper Producers association cop
per statistics for the month of Septem-
Der were received Friday noon over the
Pollock wires. and. as anticipated the
showing WAS extremely satisfactory. al
though there sun remains a surplus of
considerable dimensions. Tho favorable
phase TO the report Is the splendid In
crease. however. in the reduction in this
surplus, the reduction being 20.OS7,93l
pounds against 1,759. iJ& pounds during
the month Of August
The only item showing an increase was
the exports OF the metal. the figures for
September being 75,2I4.1l6 pounds, 49,
2ii,il6 pounds in excess OF the August
record. The total production and i'm
ports during September amounted 10 49,
5l9.9S3 pounds. against l2I,S036lS pounds
in August, a decrease OF S, ,2S3. 635 pounds.
Consumption at home amounted to a.
50lOlS pounds, decrease OF $3.50. 253

These figures show that the European n
consumer is taking advantage OF the

consumer Europe has secured over 900.

Ernest l.. Godbe, general manager o

extended investigation of the mines and
the vigorous development campaign nov

until the present time. In branding
these reports as false, Mr.. Godbe freely
discussed tho present conditions and

THE many incorrect and unfouuded
rumors going the rounds arc doing
harm" said Mr. Godbe. and / deem IT
my duty to our stockholders to say so
in the most positive way possible. All
this rot about the Prince mine passing
into the hands of the local smelling
companies is ridiculous. and absolutely
untrue.
Il want 10 say that we arc getting
