il there were to be a recurrence
of the boom of bygone days in the
district, for whatever effects copper
finds an echo here.
No change has occurred in the
market of the red metal. but the in
dieations are that there will be a
change, and that, too, in a short
time. Again, is the subject of the
billion dollar copper merger being
agitated, and reports from the east
are to the effect that the merger is
under way of accomplishment; that
the "gentlemen's agreement" is about
to go into effect. The decision of the
supreme court has opened the way
for such a merger. for the gentlemen
of the copper domain do not purpose
to put any unreasonable" restriction
on competition. The price of copper
has been at such a point for months
past as to make production unproft-
able in many of the copper camps.
The country, generally, is in the
best of condition for the transaction
of business, for investment and stock
speculation. A superabundanee of
money crowds the vaults of the
banks and il must be loosed for en-
terprises, industrial and otherwise. Il
must find its way into channels from
which will flow back dividends. In
an agricultural way the country new
er has been better off. With all this
in favor of the public We have seen
hard times, the cost of living still
high and numbers of men out of
work. Just as soon as the nature of
the supreme courts decision was
made known a change seemed to
sweep over the country. Confidence
with a big Co returned in a night.
Since then capital has loosened up
and has sought and is seeking an out
let; the banks are loaning money
gladly; good times, better times
than we have seen in many years are
opening up to us-opportunity is at
hand.
Copper issues have already ad-
vanced millions of dollars in value,
and the stocks of this district have
been among those which have gone
upward in price. Giroux, which has
always been regarded as one of the

jumped to this price from 1925 over
night; an increase in the value of the
property in "a hours of $1,250,000.
In the Robinson district are many
smaller properties, some of which
are working with good results and
some of which have been idle owing
to lack of capital. A short time will
see all these properties again in full
swing, and their securities the best
kind of purchases for cheap invest
ments and spe~culations.

II BREWERY FIRE.

On last Wednesday afternoon fire
+ paralyzed one of the leading COM
mereial industries of Ely. The Cop
per King brewery. put up at a cost
of in the -neighborhood of SOC, 900,
and with a monthly payroll of APP
proximately, $4,000, barely escaped
total destruction from what has all
the earmarks of being the work Of
an i~ncendiary. Fortunately, the ma
chinery of the brewery was preserv-
ed almost intact, and this was due
to the good work of the citizens of
Ely and East Ely, who threw all
their efforts into the saving of the
property. The race from Ely of the
fire department was an inspiring
sight, showing that the old spirit of
help your neighbor is still among us,
and that it is just as easy t o rouse
the people to prompt action as in the
days of the boom.
Ernest P. SLIDER, president of the
brewing company, who has put all
his worldly possessions into the en-
terprise which he has so successfully
guided to its present standing, and
breweries in the beer war which was
concluded only two weeks before the
fire, has shown himself to be the
right man in the right place in time
of disaster. No crying over split
beer for SLIDER, no indeed. On the
ruins of his business he declared that
he will go to work again and rebuild
his shattered fortunes. He further
declared that he would be selling
beer in ten days, that 5000 barrels
were saved from the flames, and that
his machinery can be put into work.
ing shape in a very short time.
This is manly talk, and the entire
district should stand behind a man
like this robust old brewer. Misfor-
tune cannot down the fighting spirit
of a man like that. When the brew
cry war was started against him. he
stood up like a soldier, and when his
all was apparently swept away, he
bore his losses like a Spartan. He
has shown the way in which the peo-
pie of the district can aid him to re-
establish the industry-by subscrib-
ing to 10, 900 shares of stock at 81
a share. In a year. or eighteen
months at the utmost this stock
should be paying dividends. 1t is a
good investment for the money.
AS to the charge of arson. the au-
thorities should investigate the mat
ter thoroughly. President SLIDER has
made the charge openly, and those
who have been on the premises dur
ing and since the fire, believe with
him that the FIRE was the work of an
incendiary. If proof is had of the
charge, the full penalty of the law
should be melted out to the despicable
wretch or wretches who were guilty
of the cowardly act. In fact. the
penalty of the law is not heavy
enough for the punishment of such a
crime.

OYER $4,000 WAS SPENT
Secretary Hopkins Paid More
Than $340 in Fares.
43-some Totals Were over $500
Average Amount Paid for
Railroad Fare WAS $500.

Secretary Hopkins of the Merchants
Protective association has prepared
figures showing In a graphic way the
amount of business represented by the
coupons issued in Burlington during
Merchants week.
According to this statement, Al mer-
chants issued slips which found thUii
way. through the hands of shoppers. into
Mr.. Hopkins's office. Several of these
had a trade of over $500 on which coupons
were given out. The total amount Of
sales, rs thus shown, is $5,220.S
Mr.. Hopkins wrote checks for 1874 peo-
pie, each Of whom had traded at least
$500 worth, and some of whom had spent
here as much as $50, $50, or even 800.
One person from ont of town left $113
with various local stores.
The total amount paid to shoppers for
railroad fares was S3i1.72. At the mileage
rate, this sum represents a total distance
Of 17,os6 miles. The distance from New
York to Manila, p. l.. is only 1913 miles.
and from New York to Melbourne,
Australia, 70, 2G5 miles.
The average amount of sales made by
each Of the A merchants was s127.4S Tho
average amount Of trading, per shopper.
was $3.50. The average amount paid
to shoppers for their railroad fare was
50 60.
II Is Interesting TO note that the amount
returned to customers for fare. s341.72,
is about six and one-half per cent. Of the
total amount paid in by the shoppers,
which was H5.22os4.
There is no means of learning how
many people came to this city and ma lie
purchases of less than sos during the
week. and Il is known that some people
traded $500 worth without fling Il claim
for their car fare. So the total amount Of
business done is perhaps considerably
in excess of the figures given above.
And Of course it is quite impossible even
to estimate the benefit to local trade that
has been gained from the better ac-
quaintance with Burlington ag = market
that was built UP throughout neiehhorinc
sections of tho state, This city. as a
trading center, has received a large
quantity Of very valuable advertising.
