MARYLAND PROGRESSIvES
TO GO 1T ALONE.

BALTIMORE, Md, March 25.--
Leaders of the Progressive party in
Maryland are rounding up in Balti-
more for their state convention to-
morrow Ever since the November
election the Roosevelt followers have
been busily at work on their district
and county organizations. Tomor-
rows convention will perfect a per-
manent state organization and in ad-
dition it will map out program for
the future.
The party leaders have already de-
cided definitely against any amalga-
nation with the Republicans. This
decisions of the Progresives to reject
all fusion plans and stand as sep
arate political organization has dis
appointed the harmony" workers on
the Republican side. Maryland will
soon be called upon to select two
United States senators and with the
Democrats divided into two bitterly
hostile factions it was believed in some
quarters that united Republican par
ty might have a show of success. But
these hopes have gone a-glimmering
with the decision of the Progressives
to go it alone.
But the most of the Republican
leaders take the situation philosophi-
cally, and content themselves with
the though that the Progressives with
out the Republicans are just as help
less as the Republicans without the
Progressives. Meanwhile the organ
ization and anti-orgenization wings Of
the Democratic party are preparing
for the battle of the September pri-
maries. The faction which. .rirs in
the primaries will have the naming
Of the two United States senator's.

faults of girls as well as boys, SO it
was not considered at length. The
question of ideal men was returned to.
Rev Mr.. Kerr outlined how he be-
lieved the girls should judge young
man. He said that the perfect soung
man could have imperfections. He told
them to measure the man by his at
titude toward his mother, toward
truth, purity, love and Christianity.
Most of the girls present agreed
that the ideal man is not a freak of
nature, but just healthy, sweet-tem-

of chap whose feet may slip occa-
sionally, but who profits by his own
mistakes and is urged on by ambition

WILL FIGHT pINcHorIsM.

WASHINGTON, D. c., March 25.---
A hot attack on the national con-
servation policy as established by Gif-
ford Pinchot and maintained by for
mer Secretary Of the Interior Fisher
lis soon to be opened by group of
western senators, led by Shafroth of
Colorado, Democrat, and Brady of
Idaho, Republican. s lasr
Both men, as recent governors of
their respective states, are up in arms
against the renovation of millions of
acres of federal lands Under the
constitution these lands cannot be tax
ed for the upkeep Of state and county
governments where they are located.
On this grievance the westerners will
base their demand that the title pass
to private holders who will be sub
ject to taxation.
The simplest way of giving relief
to US is to change the policy of the
interior department. in administering
the laws now in, existence" said Sem
ator Shafroth today. "No law COM
pels the department to charge 10 cents
for every ton Of coal taken from fed
eral lands filed upon by a settler.
No law compels the department to
charge the man who develops wa
ter power, for every horse power de-
veloped. This charge keeps our citi-
zens from opening up the natural re-
sources. Without development the
state can secure no revenue with
which to maintain schools, courts and
all the machinery Of government"
Senator Shafroth has seen Secre-
tary Lane, but has not yet obtained
an expression Of the new secretary's
view on the situation. t.-r

DAD" TOWNE, OLD, TIME MINER
AND PROSPECTOR DEAD.

dad" Towne, one of the oldest min
er and prospectors in the southwest,
died suddenly at the Palace hotel last
night. Yesterday he was around town
in excellent spirits and apparently
enjoying splendid health for one of his
advanced years. Last evening about
10 o'clock when he started to retire
he was stricken with a hemmorage
and died within very few minutes.
Mr.. Townes life has been a part
Of the history of the southwest since
the carly '70's. He first located in
Silverton where he was engaged in
mining. Along in the waning ''l0's he
came down TO this section and t,ok
up a ranch near the site of Parrot
City, the town which was then the
:aunty seat of La rlata county.
He has owned and located nrm-
Der Of promising prospects in the La
l'iatas. Among these was the Val
ley View property, that portion II the
Idaho prope e,lies which has produced
some of the richest ore ever mined in
the state. However, it profited the
first owner but little, a few hundred
dollars at best. r1--
Of recent years Mr.. Towne has been
interested in the development of the
Little Mona mine. A short time ago
the property made an excellent show
ing and bids fair to bring the owner
the fortune he had been seeking these
many years and was, certain the La
Platas held for him.
Little is known of his family his
tory. He was SO years old last May.
His wife is supposed to have passed
away before he came to this section.
One son, the only known urylying
member of his family, reside in Port
land, Ore. Local friends OF the de-
ceased telegraphed him of mis- faith
cr's death this morning. NJ funeral
arrangements will be made until an
erswe, is received. M 1slt

INSPIRATION READY
TO POUR CONCRETE
IN FORMS FOR PLANT.

MIAMI, Ariz., Aug. 11-At the In
SEPARATION Consolidated company S
millsite the first concrete will be
poured into the. forms Monday. ~.
The grading gang has finished its
work The concrete mixers at the
millsite are set upon platforms and
the sand cement and crushed rock
conveyor belts, the mixers merely
mixing the material with the water
and discharging it into long troughs
called launders, which will convey
the concrete downward to the sue
cessive walls as they are built, one
below the other. The concrete now
being poured at the ore bin foundac
tions near the hosting shafts in
Webster gulch is being supplied from
fiat car upon which the mixer is
mounted Launders leading out
from each side of the car make it
possible to fill forms on each side of
thee ar as it moves along the track.
The quarry west of the millsite is
supplying about so cubic yards of
rocl. daily for the ore bin construc-
ton and about an equal amount for
the beginning of the mill building.
AS work at the latter progresses the
quarry will be opened and its out
put increased Cement is arriving
at the rate of a carload daily. This
rate will keep the construction force
supplied, for the supply will accu-
mulate often when the concrete work
is delayed by other construction.
Mine Superintendent Felix Mac
Donald has assumed charge of the
mine succeeding T. r. Drummond
who remained with Macdonald until
he was familiarized with the under
ground workings. 1t is possible that
the transmission line from Roosevelt
dam will be finished by November
The Miami Copper company's out
put for July amounted to 2,S9O,OOO

SHELTER FOR INSPIRATION
AND MIAMI is DETERMINED

GLOGE, Aug. 1.-THE Record
says: Positive confirmation of the
report printed exclusively by the Ari-
IONA Record on June %, that an i'm
mense smelling plant will be built
in Globe district within the next few
months was obtained last night. From
an authoritative source it was learn
that plans for the new smelling plant
are nearly complete and that the
work of actual construction may be
expected to begin within a compare
lively short time. The smelter will
be built in the vicinity of Burch sta
ton, less than five miles from the
heart of this city.
The new smelter, which is to be
built by the International Smelling &
Refining company, will be one of the
largest and most completely equip
ped plants in the southwest. 1t will
compare favorably with the great
smelters of the Copper Queen and G.
& A. at Douglas and will be fitted
throughout with the latest of modern
improvements, smelling and refin-
ing machinery.
Although the plants have not been
wholly completed it is known that
the plant will include three reverber-
atory furnaces and four or five con-
verters. The smelters will be APP
proximately three times the size of
that of the Old Dominion company
here.
The smelter project has been given
impetus by the fact that through the
adoption of the fiotation process the
Inspiration company is to begin pro-
ducing at much earlier date than
was at. first contemplated. Under
the original plans, before the f1ota-
ton process was tested and decided
upon, the Inspiration company did
not expect to have it's mill ready for
operation before the first of the year
1915. Under the new plan, however,
production will begin six months or
more earlier and it is likely that by
this time next year the company will
be shipping concentrates to a new
smelter at Burch.
The Miami Copper company, which
is now shipping its concentrates to
Cananea, will send it's ore to the new
smelter which will also handle Gus
toms ores 1This fact is expected to ]
result in greatly increased Develop
ment in the district as a large num-
Der of good properties have not been
operated because of the impractica-
bility of shipping ore to shelters at
distant points.
