Steamer for Pyramid Lake.

The Utah Construction Company,
according to an official, will get the
track from Fernley to the southern
end OF Pyramid Lake with all speed.
They will build a shoo-hy track around
the most difficult work, there being
at one place a long cut 20 feet in
depth
After the track reaches Pyramid
Lake the company will at once place
a steam launch thereon and haul sup
plies to the northern end of the lake
a distance OF Is miles, as well as un-
load them at intermediate points
along the west shore. so that con
struction work can be easily engaged
in at number OF points simultane
ously
Supplies forwarded by steamer, also
will be taken considerable distance

Old Ripy's Sayings.

A person who boasts himself hard
to please, because nobody trys to
please him dubs himself critic
A tyrant's authority for crime and
a fools excuse for failure is called by
some destiny.
If you wish to confirm a man in his
errors discuss them with him
The only thing the rich conccde to
the poor and are willing that they
should call their own and keep it Is
distance.
That which discloses to the wise
and DISCUSSES from the foolish is mis-
named education.
Anyone who is always apologizing
is only laying the foundation for fu-
ture offenses.
We often feed and lodge persons
who are not in need of food and lodg
ing, and call that hospitality.
Old Ripy is above criticism for it
pleaseS everybody who uses it, those
who do-not use cannot criticize, The
lunch we give away. for that is our
way for paving the way to other
things that we do not give away. See

Water in Canned Tomatoes.

The canned goods trade is begin
ming to speculate as to what will be
the result of the Government ruling
with regard to canned tomatoes The
decision reached by the pure food
board some months ago forbids the
addition OF water and of any more
OF the juice of the tomato than is just
necessary to properly process it. 1t
is, OF course, impossible to prepare to-
matoes without some liquid
1t is agreed that the effect which
this new regulation will have will be
the standard of the pack will be raised
by the elimination of large percent
age of the inferior grade called sec
onds and off-standards, and this will
probably reduce the pack somewhat.
-Growers prices. it seems, are i'm
proved by the situation. Only those
packers who have been putting out an
inferior article will be injured by the
government ruling; the trade. as a
whole, will be benefited because i'm
provement in the pack is certain to
bring about an increase in the con
sumption of canned tomatoes.

Many Wild Horses Caught.

Albert and Orville Marker returned
Saturday from Humboldt House,
where they have spent the past sew

boys were very successful on this oc

about watering hole, when the

Big Sales of Copper.

1t is stated that the General Electric
Company placed orders for 9,0oo0oC
pounds of copper this week and that
4 they are in the market for as much
4 more This is another substantial
proof of the stability of the market
4 There have been sales of large guam
titles this week at Az cents, with
predictions for higher prices
The business of the above electrical
company indicates the amount of
metal this line is consuming and bears
out the predictions of so many prom
inent electrical engineers that it will
not be long before all mines will be
put to their capacities to supply cop
per for electrical purposes alone, and
that the price will advance to 20 cents
J. Parke Claiming, head of the Ten
nessee Copper Company, is on record
as saying that he does not believe
copper will go above 10 cents, but
thinks it will be firm at about that
level Such price would be satisfac
tory to everyone legitimately i'll the
copper mining business.
That there will be an enormous
business i'll copper with the electrical
appliance concerns is certain. This
business is only now in its introduc-
tory stages. and the field is great
one. the world is its market Copper
is even now being borrowed by some
of the big producers who have sold
completely out. They do not pos
sess enough metal to meet the de
mands of their customers.

dtions which for several years have
been confronting us, but Iron Ore, in

Life of a Copper Mine.

In our mining column this morn
ing we print an article from the Bos
ton News Bureau relative to the VOL
VERNE property and its future. We
do not agree with the presentation
of the situation as given in this arti-
Gle. In the first place Mr. Finlay
the expert gave the life OF the VOL
VERNE as nine years. Mr.. Finlay made
so many ridiculous underestimate in
his desire to be conservative, that we
cannot credit his understanding of
the Wolverine situation.
While we all know that the life of
the Wolverine is limited we are con
WINGED that the estimate of the man
agement of fifteen years is conserva-
tive rather than optimistic And that
is not counting the possibilities in
other formations than the Kearsarge,
which are at least fair in the case of
the Wolverine.
From the time when the Wolver-
inc first commenced making copper
they have told us how small the prop
erty is and how comparatively lin
tied must be its activity. Yet the lit
tie" Wolverine has maintained steady
production, maintained steady divi-
dends and a good market valuation
in the face of the most trying situa-
tons with which our copper mines
have found it necessary to contend
With the Wolverine as with the Cal
umet & Hecla We remember ten
years ago when noted expert insist
ed that the old Calumet conglomerate
could not maintain production for
fifteen years Yet the Calumet con
glomerate is good for more years
than that. dating from tomorrow.
And every Calumet & Hecla con
glomerate shaft is mining and mill
