Four different Goals, bituminous,

are produced here. The conclusion
reached is that none of the coal To-
calities around the edge of the
Black Hills, except Cambria, will
ever add to the states record Of coal
produced and shipped. The report
is fully illustrated.

this report was collected by, Stone

$1.5O Coal Carries
$500 Gold

An interesting feature about the
coal mined at Cambria, Wyo., is
that it is claimed to be goldbearing
Some of the coal has contained as
50 per ton in gold, and the coal was
soll for only 81 80 per ton. When
coke made at Cambria was selling
for S3.50pcr ton samples were TAX
en- from 81 cars during period of
three weeks and assayed. The sam
pies showed an average OF S2.46
per ton in gold and S02S in silver
The explanation offered for the pre-
! sence Of gold in this coal is that sand
which submerged the old peat bog
and now form the roof of the coal
bed were derived in part from gold
alluvium. While the sand was be-
ing deposited the gold worked down
into the underlying bog and is now
found in the coal

The Price of Copper

Somewhat beyond expectations of
the most optimistic has the price OF
copper risen within the last week.
Prophetic red metal interests have
been promising 15-cent copper for
some time past, but l6-cent comes
as IL pleasant surprise to those who
have been hoping for the raise
in this direction. One prominent
operator expresses the view that pro
ducers are now interested in pre-
venting q runaway market. 1t IL
not to be forgotten that the price Of
metal has in times past far cNcccdcd
a reasonable figure simply beccuse
of excessive seculation and an over
sold condition of the market. The
last of these periods was in 1905 and
1907. when the high price of 25cts.
u pound forctold the approach 'ol
trouble and an ultimate slump.
We do not beleive there will be An
early repetition Of that experience,
because the possible supplies of the
metal from developed mines are
sufficient to prevent 4 scarcity.
Very few copper mines Of impdr-
tancc in the United States can fail
to earn profits from l6-cent copper.
Indeed. it has often been admitted
by prominent producers that the
price OF 10 cents is close enough To
normal to satisfy the conditions of
of production. Some mines are
able to make good returns ON copl-
cr at Il much lower price, and they
have done so while other properties
were losing. The higher price be-
comes warrented when the product
OF the high cost mines is needed to
meet deficiency.
The sharp advance OF copper to
l6 cents will prove another stimu-
liant to mine operations, in the same
that the advance in silver and spelt
er is proving advantageous to the
industry in the west. Enlarged
outputs are being made by the prin
cipal districts, and the increase ap-
pears to be welcomed ly the con-
There are, ON the
other hand, conservative persons
who believe it unwise to permit the
recent sharp advance in the price,
for fear of a backset. In view Of the
unnsal order of intelligent cooper
alton that has been exerc scd by the
great copper interests during the
last IS months, we are inclined ITO
credit these interests with continued
intelligence at the present time.t-

Great activity is expected among

reasonable activity among the occu-
pants Of nearby henneries is reported.
Can the real hens compete with the
fictitious layers OF the cold storage es-
tabllshments? This is a question to be
decided only by the exercise Of great
discretion.
Many arguments and illustrations
are offered to show that cold storage
is a blessing, but the consumer will re-
member that egg prices ruled rather
high last April Now we are informed
that prices were high then because the
surplus product was being placed in
cold storage for December. The con-
sumer will be disposed to take the law
Of averages and pay higher prices for
eggs when they are scarce, II he can
get the benefit of low prices when the
supply is greater than the demand.

TIE PROFESSION OF SECRETARY

I'm RECENT YEARS the world Of
business and craftsmanship has
come to recognize the Importance
of the Office Of secretary. Several sec
relaries to the various presidents have
developed into great leaders Of affairs
and in all directions one may see the
rapidly growing importance of the sec
retarlal profession, The modern Sec
retary is a business man, an organ
izer, a diplomat stratcglst, a mixer,
and an all-round man Of versatile abil-
ity The organization that succeeds
hest Is the one which obtains the best
available ability for It's executive of
fee and backs up the work Of It's Sec
retary and pays him a salary some
whore near what he would earn If he
the same work and ability to a private
occupation
It is a fatal blunder to put a weak
or nominal secretary in an important
Office and then expect results. The
secretary Of a commercial organiza-
ton should not be treated as mental
or an office boy whose opinion is not
asked, but who may be blamed If any
thing goes wrong The associations
which are doing effective work are
those that dignity the office of secre-
tary and whose members are not
above taking his advice and giving
him their united support The secre-
tary If he is worthy Of his office.
should be trusted. He has fully as
much at stake as any member, and If
given free hand can carry the work
of his organization to success.
In these modern days the great man
of affairs must have a good secretary.
and the trade association that tries to
engage an executive and then do the
work itself rs on the wrong track

APRIL EGGS.

TIIE rejoicing Of the consumer over
the reduced price OF eggs is sick
lied over the pale cast Of thought
superinduced by the announcement by
the cold storage people that most OF
the cheap eggs now on the market
were stored last April and won't be
fit for scrambling purposes unless they
are used up before New Years day
In the course Of nine months of
preservation by whatever process,
there must be a progressive condition
of antiquity; and the real age OF the
hen product has az least an esthetc
relation to deslrabiity for the table

al sense OF that word while chrono-

A WEALTH OF POWER.

T is a notorious fact that every stat,
that was granted school lands b!
the general government upon ad
mission into the Union, used those
lands TO accomplish the smallest re,
suits possible with them. As a rule
they we're sold at the very lowest price
permissible and Just as little money
as possible was obtained from their
sale. The principal values Of them
went into the pockets Of the persons
who bought them, and the schools OF
the state were, in sense, robbsd.
Oregon now has, we might soy still
has, another source of vast wealth
which II properly taken care off, would
pay the running expenses Of the state
forever and leave q handsome margin
too, and that Is her water power. She
still has a large part Of It, but It re-
mains to be seen If she will keep It, or
will let 1t slip through her careless
fingers as she did with her school
lands.
A very conservative estimate gives
Oregon's magnificent mountain
streams n total horsepower Of above
100000. II is probable close ex-
animation of these streams would
show a horsepower Of at least double
that. This is easily worth from So to
$40 a year per horsepower, or from
SSOOO0OOO to S6O.OOO,OOO yearly.
OF course, it will be many years be-
fore It is all utilized, but in the mean
while, as fast as 1t is needed, ndvid-
uals or companies, file on it, and take
possession Of It. The peoples prop
erty by this very simple and lnexpen-
sye method becomes the individuals
property, and rs soon as the power Is
available those who use It must pay
TO private individual or company for
the use Of the states property-in
sense their own property
1t Is freely conceded that this power
Is now going to waste, and can only
be utilized by the expenditure Of con-
siderable sums Of money-that in a
sense, the harnessIng Of the power
and putting It at work is a benefit to
the state, While this is true, the fact
remains that the state will get little
or nothing from the exploitation Of lis
resources, the use Of It's own prop
erty Steadily, day by day, the water
powers are being appropriated by pri-
vate companies, and unless It is stop
ped soon the cream Of the locations
will be lost forever and this rich glft
from the government win have gone
the way Of the large majority Of the
school lands,
Just what steps are necessary 10
protect this great wealth Is one OF the
first things the legislature should take
up. 1t is necessary that the water
power be used, but lt is suggested that
a leasing system could be perfected
which, while allowing private corpora
tiuns 10 control and make available
