BIC IMPROVEMENT

Reduction Plant Enlarged,
New COncentratOrs and

Douglas. Ariz, June 26.-Preparing
TO IKE advantage of the continued rise
IN copper price, the Greene Cananea
company is making extensive improve
ments in. its reduction works at Can
anea, according to DR.. L D. Ricketts,,
who was here When the improve
ments are completed they will have in
creased the capacity of the plant so
that, working full blast, it will be ca
pable OF making 10000 600 pounds of
copper monthly.
81 hope the price of copper will not
60 any higher than 1t is at present, but
see no reason why It should not re-
main at its present level indefinitely"
said DR.. Ricketts,. The demand is
great and apparently the copper prop
critics are not turning out the metal
rapidly enough to satisfy the consum-
ers. I consider the situation, as
whole, very healthy"
Two New COnverters.
The chief betterment underway now
at the Greene-Cananea smelter is the
installation of two Great Falls type con-
verters. To serve these the blowing
capacity of the plant is also being in
creased new so ton electric crane
has been purchased to serve the con-
verter bed, being rendered necessary
by the changes in the converter plant.
The company is at present turning
out about 100000 pounds of copper,

pounds of copper from Cananea ore
and about 100000 from Miami will
probably be turned out. The plant
will have capacity of 100000, If
pushed to its limit.
To meet the increase in output ton
mage from the company properties at
Cananea is being largely increased.
Dr. Ricketts, stated that he could say
nothing with regard to whether indie

trict are attempting to take advantage
of the high market Two or three

w. C. T. u. NOTES.

s. The following article regarding the
Colorado penitentiary is from the
last Bulletin of the Presbyterian
Temperance Committee, issued July
20:
The state OF Colorado maintains a
penitentiary at Canon City, one of
the most modern and progressive in
stitutions of-its kind in the United
States. Its methods are UP to date
and humane
In order TO maintain the institution,
an average of o. employees are re-
CURED. The average number of con-
victs in actual attendance during the
fiscal year 1910 was 725. This NUM-
Der does not include those on parole
under the parole law of the state who
are looked after by a parole officer.
The expense of maintenance of the
institution for the fiscal year 1910 was
SI3I.o25.oo. For the biennial period
ending Nov. 80, 1910, the State Board
of Charities has recommended the
sum of S275.ooo.
In view of the coming vote on
statewide prohibition next November.
it is of interest to know where this
great throng OF YES prisoners come
from andewhat is the cause OF this ex-
penditure of $4,000 per year.
Thomas ]. lyman. warden OF the
penitentiaryi estimates that 90 per
cent OF this business comes from the
drink traffic. He writes:
Canon City. Colo, July ?, 1912.
Presbyterian Temperance Commit
Dear Sir: Answering yours OF
June 27th will state i'll answer to your
first question that | have only had
three and one half years experience
as warden of this institution.
In answer to your second question
will state that in my Judgment near
ly ninety per cent of the men in this
institution have come here either
from the use or abuse of Intoxicating
liquors, either themselves or some
one else. Yours truly.
THOS. J. TYNAN'.'
This startling estimate. of Warden
lyman is confirmed by the chaplain
of the penitentiary, Mr.. ]. G. Blake.
in the following letter:

Dear Sir: Your letter of June 2zth

able to determine, ninety per cent of

The license. system has resulted in
upon the state this expen-
sive and costly institution where z25
men are cared for at an expense to
the state of $4,000 per year. and
nineiy per cent of the trouble pours
out OF the drink traffic. That is one
reason why the people of the state
are preparing TO vote on statewide
prohibition.
