cHRlsT-L!KE COMMON SENSE
Mutual Service the Basis OF Confidence
and Means Justice, Peace,
Plenty and Virtue.

Mutual service Is the basis of mu-
justice. peace, plenty, virtue 1t means
the beginning at least of that mutual
love which is the crown and glory of
the divine life of perfect humanity
If We are committed to that we are on
our way to the realization of the
Christian ideal. If not, no belief will
save us. We may fast and pray and
humiliate ourselves before we can put
the message of Jesus into such form
as to reach the mind, the conscience
the heart, of this generation, we must
get at the spirit in which he. being
what he was, spoke and acted If, by
sympathy, we share the spirit that
moved him we begin to know not
what he said and did then SO much as
what we ought to say and do now
and here. What he said about the rich
and the poor, the scribes and the
Pharisees, the Gentle publicans and
Jewish sinners he might not say today
If he were dealing with the problems
of modern society. What he did at
any moment depended upon the pc
culiar circumstances of the time and
place. He might act differently now
and here. If. however. we can dis
cover the spirit in which he used the
gifts of his nature and the power of
God that was in him we may In the
spirit know how we ought to apply
ourselves to the needs of our time and
what will help us in our work today.

been about $4,000, 900 pounds, but of
ourse this is all on business done
last month. The strike situation in
Great Britain has been more or less
of a factor. and the demand from
abroad at the moment is quiet.
There has been good general buy
ing of the metal for actual needs, but
not of sufficient magnitude to pre-
vent the price declining Ac per
pound. and while the big metal sell
ing agencies in this country do not
make an open price of less than
per pound. 80 days, they have
been free offerers of copper abroad
at IL * c., without affecting sales de-
sired.
Many copper people are expressing
very optimistic views. on the ground
that stocks in this country are not
very much over a months production.
New production. however, will begin
to come forward very rapidly from
now on, for both the Chino and Brad
have now started production,
Miami and Ray Consolidated are we'll
under way, and the Utah Copper and
Nevada Consolidated are prepared to
increase their output. This coun-
tray is facing a big influx of copper
within the next six or eight months,
and ii will take a very substantial
increase in consumption to absorb
this new copper without affecting the
price of the metal.

BRADEN COPPER.
Smelter Placed i'm Commission-Ore
Shows Highest Returns of ANY
of Low Grade Coppers.

Arvices received from Braden state
that the smelter has been placed in
commission and the smelling of con
centrates begun; that part of the
power plant is in operation; and that
the original mill of $50 ton capacity
has started up and is running full,
The first 1,O00-ton unit of the new
mill has not yet been placed in opera
ton. but should follow shortly.
At the Fortuna mine developments
continue TO meet with good results.
Based on the report as of August 1st
the No. 3 u tunnel has advanced since
June LIST more than $50 feet into the
ore body, the entire distance averag-
ing approximately 20 per ZEN cop
per per ton. The steady increase in
mel indicates that this working is
rapidly approaching the main ore
body.
In the No. . Fortuna, one of the
upper tunnels which is now being
driven ahead following the contact, a
marked increase in copper contents
is noted, the last 10 feet having aver
aged 1.95 per cent, This tunnel is
being rpm for the purpose of develop
ing in depth some of the large copper
couplings lying to the eastward of the
Fortuna and T~eniente.
A careful study of the under
ground work now in progress at
Braden shows the significance of the
developments which are taking place.
In brief. the No. 3 " Fortua is add
ing ore very rapidly to the reserves;
the No. 4 is nearing the shoot and
No. 2 is now advancing and opening
up other shoots ahead; while at the
Teniente mine sulphide ore of more
than a per cent. higher than average
grade has ben encountered and is
now being developed.
Braden's ore is the highest of any
of the low grade copper. averaging
over 81 per cent. Large blocks of
ore averaging 2 per cent copper have
been opened at this property, of
(which no account has been taken in
the estimation of ore reserves, and
which If included would greatly in
crease the present tonnage. 1t is esti-
mated that ore carrying more than
1h per cent copper can be treated at
a profit under existing metal con-
d~itions.

CONDITION OF
COPPER MARKET
MEN OCCUPYING HIGH POSITIONS
IN LARGE COMPANIES ARE
OPTIMISTIC AND LOOK FOR
HIGHER PRICES.

At the present time the status OF
copper is one of the most interesting
topics under discussion by the min
ing world. Opinions have been given
on all phases of the question, both
upon the market situation, as con-
sidered in connection with general
market conditions, and with regard
to the copper mining industry. as
such. 1t is always of value, however,
to learn what some one else thinks,
and therefore any authoritative
statement coming from n who is
more or less intimately in touch with
conditions may be read with interest,
says the Los Angeles Mining Review.
While the price of metal is low,
the general opinion is that the stu
alton as a whole is good. The
worlds supply of reserve metal has
diminished during the past year and
the prediction has been made that it
will be only a comparatively short
time until this reserve will have been
used, and consumption will have
overtaken production. This will un-
doubtedly result in better prices for
the metal.
An interview with d. C. Jackling.
who is connected with several of the
larger companies. among them Utah
Copper and Chino, brings out the
opinion that the only drawback to
an immediate advancement in the
price of the metal is the present
somewhat dull condition of business
generally.
He is quoted as saying: AT no
time since | have been engaged in
the copper business have l found
stocks so low as at the present time.
When industrial conditions improve
this will have its bearing. | have al
ways been optimistic on copper ard
continue to be So"
Former Senator Clark. who is at
present in Europe, presents another
angle of view when he calls atten-
ton to the relation between copper
and steel; the n rejecting eondi-
lions in the other. With the present
improvement in the steel trade, he
intimates, this should mean an early
improvement In copper.
He calls attention further to the
fact that foreign consumption OF
copper is playing a large part In the
reduction of the surplus, taking II off
at the rate of 10. 100000 pounds a
month.
Incidentally, he sets a good price
for copper at IA or Is cents a pound,
at which price properties can be
operated at a profit, and yet 1t may
be considered a fair price to the con
umer
Thompson. Towle & Co. sum up
the situation as follows:
The copper market is quiet and
there is very little new business do
ing. Unsettlment in the stock
market always finds more or less re-

The above shows that during the
past five years stocks have been
gradually working into the hands of
the smaller investors throughout the
country, removing the stocks from

comparatively little new capital has

WANT HOSPITAL
 BUILT

In accordance with the resolution adopted by the Commercial club on Thursday night petition was drafted on Friday, protesting against the building of the addition to the federal jail to be used as a deten- ton hospital and the same is now being circulated by F. B. McDonalI The petition in terms is as follows:
 We the undersigned citizens of the Fourth Judicial Division of Alas ka, hereby most earnestly protest against the use of the federal jail, at Fairbanks, Alaska, or any portion thereof, for the housing of insane patients, or the building of an addi- tion to the federal jail for such purpose, and we do hereby further recommend that a building be erect ed on the site selected for such purpose; declaring that it would be an act of injustice to the insane patients, and to the prisoners in the federal jail to have them housed in the same building. And we hereby further protest against the appro- priation of any portion of the fund provided by act of congress for the erection of a detention hospital for insane patients being used in plac- ing any addition or improvement on the federal jail in Fairbanks, and demand that the whole thereof be appropriated as directed by con- gress.
 The petition is being largely sign ed, as 1t should be, ano as soon as sufficient names have been secured the attorney-general will be advised by wire of the protest, and the num- Der of names secured. It is confi- dently expected that the work on the proposed addition to the jail will be held up and the hospital erected in accordance with the expressed in tention of congress and the entire appropriation expended as common sense dictates.
