FROM THURSDAYS DAILY
 THE SUCKER CROP

Recent published reports that during the past two years the American public has been swindled out of upwards of one hundred thirty million dol lars by various schemes that have been operated through the mails. The postal author tiles are planning a drastic cam paign against these public plunderers. and mailing priva!- eges will be refused to every concern and every person whose operations are tainted with fraud or with false prom ises that are designed to sep hard earned cash without giv- ing anything in return. It seems strange that anybody should he so wooden headed as to swallow the bait that is thrown out by this class of swindlerS, but it is the fact that the sucker crop of Ameri- ca gives up more than a million dollars every week as free will offering to the army of crooks and theives. And the sucker crop has never been to he failure. Whether 1t rains or whether it don't, the harvest brings forth it's abundance, and the redhanded reaper always finds grain that is ripe and ready to be gathered in. The waiting list never grows less, and like flies in the summer time, whenever one gets his mortal swat a half dozen more
 
 are born. Barnum said that the American people like to be humbuged, and he might have added that money is no object. Name the price and the bar gain is closed. You can keep the change. Barnum was an artist at humbuggery in his day but if he vas playing the game now he you'd look like a bal loon chasing a streak of light ming. A well regulated matri- monial bureau, as money getter, has the greatest show on earth backed entirly off the grounds.
 We understand why people drop their money in a slot machine, or bet it on the turn of a card. They have chance to win. But in sending money through the mails to strangers 10 invest in any sort of scheme, there is absolutely no chance 10 win. Legitimate business IS conducted through regular channels and with every reas- enable safeguard throyn a. round it. Investigation is in- vited. and financial responsibi- lity is made a matter of public knowledge. A scheme that will not bear investigation can do business only with the sucker class of people, and 1t usually operates through the mails It would seem that i'll this age of enlightment it would not be possible for lotteries to do bus mess, but during the past year fraud orders were issued a. gainst seventy-four concerns that were conducting lotteries through the mails. This means that thousands of people were buying lottery tickets and los ing their money. It seems a little odd, but we have known

THE POSITION OF COPPER

It can be shown by reliable statistics that the cost of pro- tucing copper the world over overages about 10.5c per pound when operating charges alone ire figured. and that 1 14c to t5c Der pound is required when a 'eturn on the investment and
 reasonable profit is consider d. That copper will not go for 'ong below these prices is cer- ain, for the moment it does so he smaller producers shut own, the supply is curtailed md the resulting shortage oper
 tes to retain the price. If ve examine the course of prices for the last fifty years ve will find that the highest point was touched in 1864 at 15c, and the lowest in 1894 at nc. Between these dates the price rose and fell in fairly reg
 lar waves, the low points be- ng reached at intervals of from
 even to nine years. Prior to S94, a peak was reached in
 800, with 17.76c. A low point n 1902 with 12.t6c, the next
 igh point in 1907, at 20c. the ow again at 12.63c in 1911, ach of these being the prices or the entire year mentioned.
 We take the prices prevailing or 10-year periods ending in 1905. 190G, cts, down to and including 1912, we will find hat the average of the whole s 14.S3c. Prices depend on hese factors: Demand, supply
 nd the cost of production. That it will never fall below he cost of production for long evident. The supply of cop oer on hand at present is nor nal of below, and the factor f greatest consequence is the demand. The worlds consump ion has risen at all irregular, nut on the whole, constant rate of from about 4S0,000 tons in 1897 to about 1 t,i40,000 tons n 1912. or f39 per cent in 15 ears: o.5 per cent each year On an average. This increase n consumption is wholly Amer can and European. The rest If the world uses little more
 opper now than in 1897. Con 'nmption at the rate of in- 1rease, which We have every 'eason to believe will be main aimed and many reasons to be ieye will be accelerated, will 'eGuire i,500.00O tons annual Y by 1921. \ slight increase n consumption in Asia, Africa and South America would bring the total demand much above the figures given out from present progress in these countries this is almost certain !o take place.
