One can scarcely conceive Mr..
Quick said, of such complete deyel-

tanned in some European countries
and yet it is merely a question OF
transportation. If it cannot be occom-
uished by land carriage, he declared,
the nation will have to have recourse
to waterways. The desired end, he
said. might be attained through the
use of "tapering rates'-that is, ~
rates which increase not with the
distance, but on some basis which
gives the remote points less tariff
than the nearby points. As an in
stance of the benefit of tapering rates
he referred to the rates on citrus
fruits from Pacific coast points east.

all points east of Denver, or from

Maine, is the same.

very incomplete conception of what
twenty steam shovels can do In the task
of removing dirt. OF making mole hills

An average OF two steam shovels are
kept on ore, The balance ccnterinG their

The major portion OF this stripping ef-

the large copper exports should be con-
sldered bull argument. These exports,
AS shown in these columns Tuesday
morning, since December have been
at the rate OF 500. 900 900 pounds per am
mum in excess of the average European
consumption. yet the London fortnight

able TO suppose these excessive exports
are entering the consumptive channels.
the only logical disposition Of the ex-
cess being in The hands of snecuIators

when the metal is high. The present
