There is a great opportunity in
police work for we'll educated,

This work opens up a new and

for helping to work out r better

Public spirited officials Of our
cities are rapidly recognizing the
value and necessity of the police
woman's work. Since my ap-

ago. more than fifteen cities have
added women to their police de-

r We been up to the Copper
& Country, where labor has
just finished a long struggle
with capital in the richest copper
mine of it's size in the world.
Any person who can draw a
map of Michigan deserves a Car
negie medal.
Lots of good folks think of the
Copper Country as wild and wool
ly. The first note of disillusion-
ment to the traveller comes when
he boards the Copper Country
Limited" palatial train that
leaves Chicago every evening in
the year, and heads straight
north for Copper Harbor, 500
miles away.
Here lies a little empire all by
itself
The ignorance concerning the
Copper Country is dense and
widely diffused. In the first place,
the district is off the beaten line
of travel. Here is where the rail-
road ends. 1t goes as far as 1t
can and stops.
We have heard this country
spoken of as "a mining camp"
The term was first applied in
1771, when a company of Cornish
miners began work here, and the
place has. occasionally been called
a camp" ever since. Descend
ants of miners who lived here in
the classic year 1875 are to be
found here now.
All Cornishmen are cousin
Jack" One of these Cousins"
came to my hotel. and insisted
that I should come to his house
and have supper with his family.
Why? Oh, I'll tell you, because
my daughter is a student at the
University of Michigan, and he,
too, has daughter at Ann Arbor.
This family lived in one Of
those log houses that you have
recently heard so much about. 1t
was a very good house-warin,
comfortable and sanitary. There
was a cellar in which were 500
bushels of potatoes, raised on a
two-acre garden plot back of the
house.
Here I met three generations of
men who all work for one mine.
Their wages averaged little over
81 day each for an eight hour
shift. This gave plenty of time
to cultivate the garden, to fish, to
get in wood for winter.
MODERN mining began IN the
upper country in 1s48. Then the
Quincy" was opened, a mine
that has never missed a dividend
in 6S years.
The famous Calumet Hecia has
100000 shares at par value of
SIS. Only $3.50 per share has
ever been paid in.
Calumet Hecia Is worth to-day
$425 a share, and it has been as
high as $1,000. l met one miner
who owned ten shares that his ia
Their had bought at par. The Cal
umet- Hecia has not skipped
dividend since 1862. 1t has paid
out in dividends 500, 100000, and
in wages it has paid over $780,
10000.
This is the mine that has Allied
the heads of spectators with
verdigris. When the promoters
give you mining figures, they fash

ing basis. He put Scotchmen in
command, and these men made
money when less able men would
have lost it.
James MacNaughton, the pres
ent manager. is the son Of
miner and was brought I'D in The
business. MacNaughton worked
his way through Oberlin and Ann
Arbor. He is an evolved man
big. generous. intelligent, able. AT
college he played successful foot.
ball, and in life's scrimmage he
hits the line hard.
The president of the Calumet
Hecla is Quincy Adams Shaw, OF
Boston, a Harvard man and quite
the same type as MacNaughton.
In fact, these men look and act
very much alike. One was born
Boston blueblood, and the other,

condition OF the .laborer. save by
overthrowing the present form
of Government. The extreme
measures these Reds" resorted
to caused a revulsion OF public
opinion that made recognition Of
the Western Federation an Inn
possibility.
Ths whole Copper Country Is
cemented now into a bond that
has never existed before Hate
jealousy. fear, these things have
given way to respect, sympathy
and desire to get together
Wages have been increased, the
eight-hour system has been
adopted, petty bosses have had
their ego sand-papersd, bonus
systems have been adopted so
that when a man does an extra
amount of work he gets more
pay Pension plans have been
put into operation.

This strike has taught both
sides few much needed but
costly lessons.
