MINE PRODUCTION GAINING


 Alaska made a gain of nearly four million in 1911 over 1910 the total being $20,650,0 and S16,S7G,224, respectively. The increase is due mainly to cop per, and the development of copper mines takes time and capital. It is estimated that in opening property of this kind about s2O,000,000 has been ex- pended; returns on this now beginning to come in will con- tlnue for many years.

A FEW COPPER FIGURES

Since 1897 the output of cop. per from the mines of the world has more than doubled. the approximate figures for IS. 07 being 399,730 tons and for the last year S73,45O tons. In this output, American mines have shown a steadily increas- in percentage, now amounting to somewhat more than half oi all the copper produced in the world.
 Consumption during this per iOd has shown possibly an even more phenomenal increase. eX- ceeding the production last year by no less than fl ,000 toGs. ac cording to statistics recently published. This was al in- crease over the consumption Of the previous year of 5000 tons the figures for the twelve month period being 1i,4GO tons. At this rate, it is anIicl. pated that within three or four years the consumption of the world will reach close to nne million tons a year.
 The stock of copper on hand has at the same time been go- ing down, indications pointing to consumption this year upon a larger scale than in 1911, which means that reserve stock must be drawn upon to sup ply the deficiency. An idea of this increased consumption may be obtained in the state ment that the general electric company will this year consume something like 1O0,000,000 | pounds of copper, or 30,000,O0O | pounds more than last year. This is only one of thelarge con sumers. There are others in this country which also are mak ing increases, and the foreign demand has been upon possibly | an even larger scale.
 The foregoing furnishes some idea of the reasons underlying the advance in the price of the metal, and the strong position it is maintaining. It tells, too, why it is that producers are making greater efforts toward | larger production, and why a shut down at the larger proper ties is regarded as of such i'm portance. Each decrease in l production, as at Bingham, Ely | and Cananea, means consider able, for these properties are among the big producers of the world.

MODERN MUSIC.
8x DUNCAN ~. .ShsSTM

TNHERE'S music in the air A When children are around. They make the old piano hum As on the keys they pound. They raise their voices high. They shout in childish glee. And ragtime fills the air With modern melody. The songs of long ago They do not warble now. They sing the tune that sounds More like a family row. The simple childish tunes
 Those airs are heard no moro. For they are out of date Since ragtime has the floor. They rattle and they bang;
 With noise they fill the air. They prance around the room And holler, Its a bear!" No interlude Is there
 As every finger flies. One song Is on the way
 Before the other dies. There's music In the air
 In fact, a perfect flood And this you must admit:
 It sort of stirs the blood. But. whether we approve
 Or whether we deplore, There's ragtime in the air
 When children have tho floor.

CRANKY BAY

Granby Bay, is the name of
 the new town lately put on the market, lots in which are now
 being rapidly sold in Prince Rupert, Stewart, and are now offered for sale for the first , time in Ketchikan. The new smelter town is situated on Ob- servatory Inlet, approximately go miles back inland of Ketch- ikan, at what has heretofore been known as Goose Bay.
 The famous Hidden Creek and Bonanza mines at Goose Bay were recently taken over by the Granby Consolidated Smelt ing and Power Co.,, who are now employing about TOO men erecting what is to be one of the largest if not the largest custom smelling plants in the northwest.
 The magnitude of the opera lions of this financial giant con cern need no advertising as everyone knows that whatever is undertaken in the way of mining is done on an enor- nous scale and is always a sue cess. The payroll at Granby Bay will exceed $100,000 per month and those who engage in business of any kind in this smelling town will be assured of a steady and everlasting source of revenue. The money required (S2,OOO,OO0) for the building of the Granby smelt- CTS at Goose Bay is now in the |companys treasury and no stock will have to be sold, as in other places, to finance their enterprise. There are numer- GUS other reasons why Granby Bay is going to become in a short time, large prosperous town. Buy lots now! Buy them at first prices and reap the ben eft of the great increase in values sure to follow. See w. p. Powers. X Go. adv.

Content in Porto Rico.
From the Christian Science Monitor.

rom Che OuIl6tldu SCtSuce MVuitUI
Foster v. Brown of Chattanooga, Tenn,
who for the last two years has been at
torney general Of Porto Rico, is now In
this country and will resign his Office this
week that he may resume the practice Of
law In his home city. He returns with a
good report. Porto Rico. he says is pros
porous. progressive and entirely loyal to
the American government; as loyal, he
insists, as any state In the Union. The
people, he says are taking. with ever
increasing zest, to American customs and
American institutions. and 1t IL their very
contentment with their new condition,
with the government that rules over them
SO satisfactorily. that causes the only
complaint of a serious nature that is ever
heard on the island. The Porto Ricans
like the United States SO we'll that they
are most desiroua Of enjoying the right
to call themselves American citizens.
Both of their political parties have de-
clared for citizenship. The granting OF
1t, as Mr.. Brown points out. has been
recommended by two Presidents, Mr.
Roosevelt and Mr.. Taft. At last the pres
emit House of Representatives. has passed
q measure allowing 1t, and 1t is believed
that the Senate will concur. In this
event the Porto Ricans will feel new
pride in the American connection.
But although the retiring attorney gen.
eral puts 1t OF for last consideration,
there Is, in reality, another cloud on the
Porto Rican horizon. Alarm exists there
with regard to the probable outcome of
the move to place sugar on the free list.
To what extent this alarm may be JUST
fed. the events Of the present year In
