Large gains were made in the pro-
duction of gold, silver, copper and
zine at mines in New Mexico in 1918,
according to figures compiled by
Charles W. Henderson of the United
States geological survey. The pro-
duction of gold showed an increase Of
$97 ,4S0 over the output Of $784,446 in
1912; silver, an increase Of 94572
ounces over the production of 1,536701

yield Of $4,000 pounds in 1912; and
zinc, an increase 0 f2,956,524 pounds
over the output Of 13,566,637 pounds

FRicK ON FREE TRADE.
What TIE Steel Maenate Has to Say
About the "New Freedom"

Henry c. Frck, lately returned from
a visit to Europe Is quoted in Pitts
burg dispatch to the Philadelphia
Ledger as saying that the upset in
business affairs is directly due to free
trade tariff legislation and 70 the at
titude of the free trade administration
toward business. The dispatch adds:
Il look for great landslide for the
republicans in 1916" Mr.. Frick went
on, and ! would like to see the re-
publicans get control Of the senate in
the next election"
Mr. Frick does not agree with Pres
ident, Wilson in his contention that the
present depression is more psychologist
cal than real, and pointed out few
examples Of retardation.
"They are importing pig iron to this
country from China where the work.
men get about 6 cents a day. When
the republicans again get into power
there will be a lot of damage to re-
pair"

figures may be compared with those Of

ton, in which the increase is 1871 per
cent, while in France it is down to 81
per cent. In II years at this rate Of
increase Russia will have a population

FOREIGNER GETS THE FAT.
Free Trade Gives Him the Benefit Of
American Prices.
(San Francisco Chronicle)

The New Orleans Picayune chides
the department of commerce for tax
ing a cheerful view of the growing
imports of foodstuffs, the necessity for
which it seems to imply is the grow
ing inability of the American farmer
to supply the home demand because
of his indifference to improved agri-
cultural methods. If the Ticayune
will take the trouble to examine the
source of the increased imports 1t
deprecates 1t will find that they are
largely, If not wholly, from countries
where intensive or scientific farming
is less practiced than in the United
States. These imports represent a.
present to foreigners of the tax which
they would have to pay for admission
to our markets if a protective tariff
were in operation, and their remission
does not benefit the consumer, fact
attested by the stiffness of prices,
which show few signs of dropping. the
enormous volume Of American agri-
cultural products fixes the price in the
domestic market, and the foreigner
who can break into the latter without
paying tax has distinct advantage
over the American farmer, who has
to pay national, state and municipal
taxes 1t was formerly contended by
free traders that the American con-
sumner paid the tariff tax, but import
ers who live along our northern Dor
der who are conversant with the facts,
will dispute the assertion, for they
have abundant evidence in the work.
ings of their business that the oppo-
site is the case. Once a Canadian far
mer who sent eggs to the United
States had to pay the duty, and when
he gained admission to our markets
he received the American price for his
products; now he sends his eggs,
wheat and other things to us and pays
no duty, and gets the American price.
The American consumer now pays
the tax

Shipments From Sherman.
M. " Buck and Ora Taylor are drv-
ing the tunnel steadily along in the
Sherman group on the west fork Of
Pine creek and have recently cut sew
eral promising strngers of ore. The
tunnel will be pushed ahead to reach

which will necessitate some 400 feet

The Nabob on Pine creek is using

the work and with electrical equip

chine drill to bore the holes will COM
plete the work as fast as 1t can pos
sibly be done.
Leasers to Build Mill.
Some Of the leasers operating in the
upper workings of the Bunker Hill are
seriously considering the ACCESSIBILITY
of erecting concentrator near the
mouth of the old Reid tunnel and there
treat their ores. Some of the leasers
have developed large extent of mill
ing ore and the owners figure that
with a mill at hand it could be treat
ed at fair margin of profit. This
would enable them to handle their
shipping ere more advantageously and
cut down considerably on transporta-
ton charges.
Ore Shipments by Boat.
Ore shipments have begun from the

river Big boats are used in bringing
the ore down the river a distance Of
90 miles to the railroad at Prichard
station. The mine is located two
miles from the river and has good
wagon road connections. The boats
can handle about two tons on the
down trp and are hauled back by
horses supplies for the camp going
back up in the boats. At the prescN
time only one ton is being brought
down the river at trip owing to the
low stage of the water on the rifles
This is novel way to handle ores in
the Occur dAlene district, but with
copper bearing ores carrying values
up to 800 per ton lit can b. made
most successful and profitable. Con-
siderable interest has become mani
fest in the new copper district and
some of the leading operators in this
metal in the west are said to have an
eye on the new camp and may decide
to get a footing, on the ground floor
In addition to the property now ship

exposed that are capable of yielding
