The possibility of the United state:
becoming involved in war with Mex

fair indication Of what would happier
in case there is second. On this sub.
iect Thomas B. Gregory says:
THE battle of Buena Vista was
fought between the Americans under
General Taylor and the Mexicans un-
der Santa Anna.
Learning that the greater part of
Taylor's army had been taken from
him to aid Scott in his siege of Vera
Cruz. Santa Anna concluded that he
would attack the Americans, and, ir
their weakened state, annihilate them
The attack was promptly made witr
the result that Santa Anna little ex-
pected The 5000 Americans inflicted
upon the 10000 Mexicans an over
whelming defeat, driving them from
the field in utter rout and confusion
The Mexican dead left upon the field
numbered 557, to say nothing Of those
that were carried off the field and the
20o0 or more that were wounded The
American loss In killed and wounded
was about 500.

Many Nations Officially Recognize the

Thlrty-two foreign nations have an

officially in the Panama Pacific Inter-

world has known. The number Of
participating nations exceeds that OF
any exposition in history.
To those who inquire how much
they must pay for exhibit space, the
answer Is given emphaticaly at the

pioneer times extending from 1862 TO
1881, gave to the world $211.000,000 in
gold and silver. Copper mining had
not then gained foothold in the state.
Starting in 1882 records Of the ore
mined and smelted or otherwise treat
ed were kept. In 1911 the states min
eral products were valued at $64.955,-
l2S7. In 1912 there was big advance
and the total output was valued at
I$65.754613. the principal Increase be-
ing shown in the copper columns. The
1913 figures will not be known until
the year fades away and ushers in
1914 But 1t is safe to prophesy the
minerals output Of 1913 will be some-
where around the $s5.ooo.ooo mark.
Great Totals.
This brings US down to the total
figures Of ore produced by Montana,
measured in dollars, since mining be-
came an industry in the state in 1852.
Counting all the production Of all the
years from 1882 to 1912. and we have
the sum total Of $1,541,58o,os7. Then
add to that the 1912 production of 1884,
|754,s13, together with the estimated
1913 production Of $65.o00.ooo. and we
have the value Of Montana's ore pro-
duction to date-$1,671.334,7O0.
Think of 1t! Sixteen hundred mill
lion dollars from an infant industry
and in an infant state, for Montana is
indeed young In years.
"As before stated, the latest anthem
tic figures covering mining in Montana
do not include the results Of 1913. AS
this is written, there Is still goodly
chunk of 1918 left on the calendar, and
so the only figures for this year we
can bring forward are estimated.
Copper.
Thine was when gold was the eager
'ly sought metal beneath the surface of
Montana's soil. Today copper is the
major mining industry AS before
remarked, the principal increase in
metal values of 1912 over 1911 is
shown in copper The value of the
copper increase was $17,00O,951.
THE first copper produced in this
state for the market that we have any
record Of was in 1868. In 1881 there
was some more copper mined and yet
"a half pounds. 1t was in 1887 that the
treasure state came to the front as
the premier copper producing state
For two decades Montana held this
distinction. In 1907 Arizona came to
the front with leap and displaced
Montana as first in copper production
AS an illustration of what Montana's
copper mining industry means to the
country, the treasure state, since 1880
has produced third as much cop
per as has the entire United States
since 1S45.
I'm pounds, Montana produced 3O9,-
1883 last year, which was gain Of
36.S91,168 pounds over 1911.
"And when the copper mining indus
try Of Montana is spoken of the Butte
district is spoken Of, for the bulk of
Montana's copper is produced in Butte
A good idea of the proportion can be
gained when 1t is known that. of the
1912 output, Butte contributed all but
1.51e,32s pounds Of the total Jefferson
county came next with 776.072 pounds
and Broadwater was third"
