MINING BY CONTRACT.
Unusual Methods Prevail IN the Mich
ioan Copper Country.

According to the Engineering and
Mining Journal, the contract system
has been in force In the copper coun-
try probably ever since mining there
began, drifting and sinking being paid
for by the linear foot and stopping by
the cubic fathom; the latter curious
custom was introduced from Corn
wall. The measurements to determine
the number Of cubic fathoms stopped
were made by the mining captain. and
on the conglomerate lode of the Calu-
met & Hecla, since the foot and hang
Ing walls were fairly uniform, 1t was
not difficult to obtain an accurate
measurement. The amygdaloids, how
ever, were difficult to measure with
accuracy, and fault began to be found
with the fathom system as these lodes
were more opened up. A great deal of
averaging Of dimensions was neces-
sary, and the men complained that
they did not get fair measurements
from the captain. Especially was this
true in measuring up to the end OF an
irregular stope. The custom was
therefore gradually done away with
in some Of the mines quite a while
ago, in others within the last two
years.
At present, on the amygdaloids lodes
of the Calumet & Hecla mines, meas
urement is made by the ton. The rail-
road cars into which the rock Is de-
livered after being broken are weighed
and this weight is divided by the
number OF underground tram cars,
corresponding to the weighed quantity
OF ore. so that after little experience
1t Is not difficult to obtain the average
weight OF a tram car full of ore. This
IL probably a relatively accurate way
Of measuring.
Under the fathom system. the MIN
er's supplies were usually charged up
to him, although not always. 1t was
thought the men would be more eco
nomical in their use of explosives ana
would lose less steel II they had to pay
for 1t. Under the present system, sup
plies are not charged. At present, the
only charges against the miners pay
are an assignment Of his wages or
garnishee from a creditor. Collections
for groceries or clothing or similar
supplies are not made in that way. III
case Of a dispute between the mining
captain doing the measurement and
the miner under contract. the case can
be carried to the captain next In au-
thority. and frequently is so, the cap
tain acting as arbitrator

OUR MINERAL RESOURCES.
United States Almost Independent o
Any Other Nation.

ANY Otn0T NatlONs
Probably no other nation in the
world so nearly approaches absolute
independence in respect to mineral re-
sources as the United States.
A glance at the statistics Of mineral
imports affords a means of compre-
hending in a broad way how great and
complex is the task of attaining ma
tional independence in the mining,
metallurgical and chemical industries.
Last year the imports Of mineral pro-
ducts both crude and manufactured,
exceeded $27o,o0o,0oo. OF this total
probably $2o0,00O,O0O represents raw
materials and crude metals, the value
Of these imports being about per cent
Of that of the domestic output. In this
list Of imports the larger items named
in the order Of value are unmanufact-
ured copper, precious stones. nitrate
of soda, copper ore and matte, nickel.
tin, iron ore, pig iron and steel, petrol
cum products, manganese ores and
alloys, platinum, aluminium, pyrite,
graphite, stone, potash and magncsite.
This country has an abundant supply
of most Of these mineral products that
are now imported In large amounts,
and as to them it can be Independent
of foreign countries. The only essen
tial minerals of the first rank Of which
the United States has no known sup
ply at all commensurate with its needs
are nitrates. potash salts, tin. nickel,
and platinum, the list thus comprising
two essential mineral fertilizers and
three very useful metals.

THE MODERN MOSES,
LEADER OF DEMOCRACY
GEMS cULLEo FROM A RECENT
SPEECH BY DEMOCRATIC
NOMINEE FOR GOVERNOR.

| In speech at Star the other day
Moses Alexander, the democratic can
didate for governor, reiterated his
statement that If elected one of his
first acts would be to clean out the
state house as means Of reducing
taxes to the extent Of 100000 pei
year and II given four years there
would be no more taxation in Idaho
AS public speaker Mr.. Alexander
seems to have a style all his own
which, while appealing to the sense of
humor of his hearers, does not i'm
press them with desire to make him
the chief spokesman for this great
state. Here are few extracts from
Mr.. Alexander's speech:
Four Years the Limit.
ANY political party, understand
when IN power 1t - IN power about
two years, ought to be RELOCATED to the
rear. II we should be in power for four
years. vote us out and try some one
else. No party ought to be left in pow.
CT UulSlue Oh FOUR years.
1.-THE first thing they did (the last
legislature) was to create a public
utilities commission-I call 1t public
useless commission. They appropriat.
ed 100000 for that. That is correct
nobody here can dispute it. A publif
utilities commission for 100000 a year
for public utilities If l am
elected governor will abolish the tay
commission"
Yank the RascaIs Out.
II want to tell you who have com
here to hear me tonight, that you ma,
not be mistaken that after am elect,
ed governor next November, and afte'
take office on the second Of January
then the first thing will do after that
l will go down into the basement o.
the state house and I will take thu
first man I meet and l will yank him
out and keep 1t up until the last man
in the state Of Idaho is out Of office.
There won't be a man left to tell the
tale"
Tho Industrial School.
II want to call your attention to this
You remember we have a home called
the industrial home, located at st. An
thony. You women understand who
have boys yourself. There you find
the girls and boys who have been de-
serted by their parents, and who have
no home in the world and IL any man
or woman has got any heart they will
stand up and say they ought to be
treated well and right. l want to tell
you what happened. The superintend-
ent Of that home took one of the little
boys IL years old, about three years
ago (Hawley was then governor) and
he was going to correct him, and he
corrected him with a cat-o-nine-t tails
and he pounded away until the skin
no longer adhered to the bone"
Here is q Poser.
II am going to show you what
bunco game that~is. The constitution
Of the state Of Idaho says this: That
any Judge of the district or supreme
court, before he can draw his salary
every quarter, he must file an affidavit
that every case that has been before
him has been tried. Now everyone of
those fellows draw their salaries. They
all take that oath and that all cases
have been tried, but II every case ha,
been tried, what in the name Of COM
mon sense do you want any more
judges for? Except for ornament. To
give some fellow job that can't make
a living any other way"

Mr.. Pufles, who is q licensed avia-
tor with an international pilots IL
cense. wants the city Of El Paso to
put up $1,000 for his machine and ex-
penses. and he would fly from New
York here, getting what advertising
he could from the flight for FL Paso,
and then set up an aviation school
here for teaching the uninitiated how
70 fly. He says he would also operate
the aerOplane as a passenger carrier
for people passing through here to the
Panama-Pacific exposition
He believes the flight, which would
attract wide attention in the papers
before, during and after the flight
would give FL PasO a great amount OF
advertising and help to route traffic
this way TO the California exposition.
Mr. Pufles believes he could break
b ali records for cross country flights by
making the trip from New York to El
Paso in less than four days. He could
make Chicago the first day, Kansas
City the second and reach FL PasO the
fourth day with ease, barring acct
dents he says. He wants a machine
that will make from IS to 50 miles an
hour.
Mr.. Pufles tested the invention OF
DR.. Shaw at Silver City and made g
successful flight Of two miles in the
New Mexico made machine. He says
the machine is not powerful enough
for extended flights in a high altitude
like Silver City, but can be made a
