GRAPHICAL OBJECTIONS.

Harry ]. Brown. WASHINGTON cor
respondent of the Oregonian who
gives close attention to national af-
fairs which concern the west, has been
studying the political situation since
! Senator Borah delivered his Lincoln
day speech in New York, having in
| view the Idaho senator as a presiden-
tial possibility. Here is the way Mr.
Brown sums up the situations
Eastern newspapers have been
commenting favorably on the Lincoln
day speech delivered in New York by
Senator Borah of Idaho in which he
made an appeal for reorganza ton of
the republican party on progressive
lines and under progressive leaders. A
few of the stand-pat papers have crit
icised the speech, claiming that the re-
publican party can only be organized
on old lines and under old leaders. In
the main, however, comments on this
speech have been favorable. 1t is con-
ceded by many papers that Senator
Borah must be reckoned with In 1916
when the republican party selects It's
candidate for president. The only ar
gument advanced against the Idaho
senator Is that he comes from state
having but four electoral votes. AL
ways in the past the big parties have
chosen their candidates from states
with large political influence, and if
that precedent should be followed in
1916 Senator Borah would be handi-
capped by reason of the fact that he
comes from Idaho Nevertheless 1t
seems to be the opinion of a good
many political writer's that Senator
Borahs geographical handicap can be
overcome and the assertion Is made
that he is today better suited than any
other man in public life to lead the |
movement for a reorganzed party |
Senator Borah, while progressive in |
his beliefs, Is still staunch in his 10y
atty to the republican party. and In
the senate enjoys the confidence and |
respect of both factions of the repub- |
|ican party and occupies a middle |
ground as between the older standpat |
element and the radical progressives. !
1t is not to be presumed that the next |
republican nominee for president will |
be a man Of the Taft type, nor on the
other hand, will it be man of the |
LaFollette type Senator Borah stands
midway between these two and thus
Far is the one republican proposing a
definite plan of party reorganization.
If he continues in general favor, he
will either be the party nominee. Or
will have a great deal to say about
who that nominee shall be-"

MORE MONEY FOR IDAHO.
To Increase Idaho's Share Of Good
Roads Augmentation.

Senator Brady has introduced an
amendment to the $25,OOO,OOO good
roads bill which has been passed by
the house, providing an additional ba-
sis upon WHICH to apportion money to
the several states.
The original bill provides that the
money shall be distributed $4,000 to
each state, and the balance, one-half
in the ratio which the population and
one half in the ratio which the total
mileage of rural post roads bear to
the total population and mileage in
the United States.
Senator Brady's amendment gives
$4,000 to each state and the balance,
one-t third in proportion to the total
number of miles of rural post roads,
one third in proportion to the popula-
tion, and one third in proportion which
the total area of each state bears to
the total in the United States. This
amendment would raise Idaho's pro-
portion from in the neighborhood of
100000 to approximately 100000.

BELGIUM MINERAL PRODUCTION
Zinc and Lead Are the Big Factors in
the Industry.

| According to official reports, there
were IL zinc smelters and 10 zinc roll
ing mills operated in Belgium in 1912.
These employed a total Of 1856 work
men. All Of the zinc ore produced in
Belgium (S40 tons) was consumed by
these works and 4SS,O3O tons of foreign
ore in addition; the coal used amount
ed to 997,74O tons. The production of
spelter was 205,s4O tons, as compared
with 1928 tons in 1911 Nn this and
following paragraphs where ton is
used, the metric ton is meant).
Five lead works We're operated,
which employed 1926 workers. These
treated 1866 tons Of ore, coming al
most exclusively from foreign coun-
tries, 1880 tons of plumbiferous, ar
gentiferous and aurferous byproducts,
and 1870 tons of work lead The pro-
duction Of refined lead was 54,OS0 tons,
exclusive of work lead from foreign
countries. which was treated in Bel
GUM. There were 279,96O ky. of gold
and silver produced and $50 tons of
copper matte as byproduct
In 1912 there were II works operat-
ing blast furnaces. Fifty furnaces
We're in blast, which employed 52S2
workers. The consumption of coke
was 2,451,32Q TONS and Of ore, 6,311,S5O
tons, Of which 90.S60 tons were domes-
tic. Pig iron production amounted to
2,3O1,290 tons, 2,137,73O tons of this
amount being used for steel making.
Considering the stock on hand at
the beginning and end of 1912 and al
so taking into account the imports and
exports (7SO,365 and 14,O62 tons, re-
spectively), it appears that the domes-
tic consumption of pig iron in Bel
GUM was 3,O67,593, as compared with
2.727,S7S tons in the previous year.

globe. The new work has been en-
tlrely rewritten by Walter Harvey
Weed, the recognized authority on
copper mining and an engineer and
geologist of international reputation.
The new volume has several innova-
tons which make it very much more
valuable to the reader. The most i'm
portant is unquestionably the geo.
graphical index, which gives at a
glance the names of all mining COM
panies operating in or near any town
IN America, or in any foreign country
If you forget the name of the company
but remember the locality, this list en-
ableS you to spot it.
Mr.. Weed has also separated all dead
companies and grouped them in dead
list in which the vital facts and refer
ences are given.
The greater part of the book, as in
former annual editions, is devoted to
descriptions of the copper mines of the
world, the amount of their holdings,
their officials, finances, profits and loss,
costs, output, nature of ore, geology
methods of mining, milling and smelt-
ing with description of plants and the
probable future, successful or other

The greatest difficulty in work along

are employed to soiTe the problem.
The National Tube company has late
ly added d new device to the list Of
those In use. A safety calendar has
been designed for distribution to each
or the 10000 employees of the company.
The calendar is exceedingly attractive;
1t carries a picture illustrating a safe

the calendar is printed safety motto

OF the safety first principle will aid
