Holstein cows are now in greater de-
mand in dairy localities than any other
breed. This is not true in all neighbor-
hoods, but it is true in general. There are
several reasons: They are good eaters,
they stand exposure better than Jerseys.
thew produce more milk than any other
breed, they have teats so formed that
they milk easier than any other breeds,
and they give down to the end with
little stripping; the veal calves are
large at birth and grow fast.

MORE ABOUT The
Freight RATE
VICTORY

In a personal letter to the editor of
this paper regarding the victory OF
the state railroad commission IN its
contention before the Interstate Com
merce commission, for lower freight
rates. Chairman Rartine of the state
commission writes:
eve have not yet received the text
of the decision, but the skeleton out
line clearly indicates that although the
commodities were not passed upon In
detail, and rates upon them fixed, our
victory is nevertheless a sweeping one.
The whole system of charging is strong
ly condemned, and, IL effect, the COM
mission holds that Nevada is entitled
to something better than terminal rates,
by reason of the shorter taul. OF
necessity, this must apply to specific
commodities as well as to classes. We
do not know just why the decision does
not cover commodities, but our idea is
that the commission was anxious to
make a decision covering the principles
prior to adjournment for it's mid-sun-
mer vacation. This could easily De done
with respect to the classes, but to 60
through the whole commodity list and
prescribe the rates is a huge task.
"We, think, however, that in all
probability the commission experts
are now working upon the commod;-
ties.
You will understand, that we present
cd our case just as completely with
reference to the commodities as to the
classes. Our work is, therefore, com
plete. 1t only remains for the Inter
state Commerce commission by a sup
elemental order to cover the case IN
detail. 1t is possible that the COM
mission thought that the order relative
to class rates would practically settle
the whole question. If the railroads
| should contest this order in the courts
and the order of the commission should
be sustained, as I have not the slight
est doubt it would be, a corresponding
reimbursement of the commodity rates
would necessarily follow. Obviously, If
the back haul charge is wrong with re-
gard to a class it must be equally wrong
as to the separate commodities wfien
i n the aggregate make up the class.
81 expect some copies of the decision
within the next two or three days and
will see that you get one

OHIO CAPITALISTS INVESTING
EXTENSIVELY AT AUSTIN

FOWLER spent an interesting and busy
hve days in Austin looking over the
property of his company and planning
with his associates for the big under
taking ahead.
The M~aricopa Mines company is
fully framed and is not seeking to
sell treasury stock. The money for
the operations planned has all been
subscribed by a small and wealthy
eoterie of Cleveland business men.
Besides Mr.. Fowler, the visiting d.
rectors included John Waterson, con-
tractor and builder Of sky scrapers in
eastern cities; DR.. Becker, a leading
surgeon of Cleveland; P. j. Meade,
general investment broker of Cleveland;
A. J. Rogers, retired capitalist, and l..
L. McGrath, a prominent attorney of
the same city.
Mr.. McGrath made the statement to
the Reveille that through the liberal
policy of the Austin Manhattan com
pany, the Maricopa Mines company
secures a long extension on the lease
on the Patriot mine. The advantage of
this to the leasing company enables ii
to equip and operate on an extensive
scale, impossible under a lease of short
period. On the other hand, it is equal
~ advantageous to the Austin Manhat
tan company, as it provides for the
opening up at depth one of the richest
properties in its list of good ones. The
tunnel to be driven by the Maricopa
Mines company will drain the Patriot
mine to deeper levels than are drained
by the Austin tunnel in Lander Hill.
f. l.. Judd, who has had charge of
the work in the past, will continue as
general manager.

SAFE and Sane mining
Of PIONEER LEASE

The Pioneer Leasing company OPP
Grating on Bi-Metallic ground of the
Pioneer Mines company at Pioneer, un-
der the management of Captain Herman

If the most sane and sensible mining
that has been accomplished in it's his
tory, obtaining good, substantial re-
suits with a minimum cost.
In the Maytiower mill the leasing
company treated 626 tons, from which
nearly $40 per ton was extracted, ana
in addition one carload of selected ore
averaging $50 per ton was shipped. The
production amounts 10 about xio,ooo.
With a force of 30 men only In both
mine and mill, the cost of thus produs-
tion has been scarcely 40 per cent.
During the previous month TINS same
economical management made a salts
factory profit. the ore showings are ex-
~esllent. and if a proportionate increase
of nrotit can be maintained for the re-
naming life of the lease-until jan
nary next-the company will be able
20 nav dividends, and also manage to
continue its existence upon some other
property, which is the aim of President
Turriton and Manager Davis.

COPPER BARONS
TO SUSTAIN
MARKET

NEW YORK CITY, July 9.-Import-
ant conferences concerning the copper
situation are said to have been held
recently in London, participated IN by
leading American producers. 1t Is SAID
tuat when Adolph Lewiston sails for
New York, which will be within the
next Two or three days, plans Will
have been perfected among the big
American copper interests to greatly
relieve the copper metal situation, AMI
the way cleared for the resumption OF
negotiations here for the general cop
per merger. Among the prominent hg-
ures in the copper industry that are
said to be holding a sort of informal
reunion in London are John d. Ryan,
head of the Amalgamated- Cole Ryan in
t~erests; Daniel Guggenheim, head OF
the American Smelling & Refining COM
pany, and other big ~Guggenkeim min
ing enterprises; Ajolph Lewiston AMI
Urban H. Broughton of the United
Metals Selling company; w. b Thomp-
son of the Utah Copper and Nevada
Consolidated companies, and Samuei
U~ntermyer, who is the chief legal "a
wiser of many of the big mining inter
ests and promoter of mining mergers.
Messrs. Ryan, Broughton and Lew
isohu are said to have been negotiating
IN Europe for several weeks for the
sale Of about 100, 100000 pounds Of
copper, and it is rumored that the deal
would have been put through before
this had not Mr.. Broughten held out
for a price a small fraction higher
than the European buyers were willing
10 pay. The sale of such a quantity
of copper, would, it is figured, quickly
relieve the metal market and bring
about an Improvement in copper prices
1t is believed that arrangements VII
be completed before these men sail FOL
rome, which will dispose of a larg'
part of the surplus copper that has 81
long burdened the metal market. IL :;
said that unless some unexpected hitci
occurs at the last moment an under
standing is likely to be reached Within
the next few days, if it has not airead'
been reached, which will result In
rational curtailment of copper produc
ton and start the stranded cope
merger on its way.

Grating on the Atlanta and who have
just secured the Cherokee lease in addi-
ton to their other holdings, started OPP
erations on Cherokee Tuesday. 1t is
intended to drift on the vein ut the
540-foot depth, where a shoot of ore
had been encountered in the shaft ny

SO far as the Ieasers worked, to main

by profitable producers, and with the

which, with economical operation, can
be made profitable, the outlook for tins
