truthhaters of another generation by their true names-for even these the stream of time carries onward.
 In fine, Truth, considered in it. self, and in the effects natural to it, may be considered as a gentle spring or watercourse, warm from the genial earth, and breathing up into the snoWdrift that is piled up and around it's outlet. It turns the obstacle into it's own form and character, and as it makes it's way, increases it's stream. And should it be arrested in it's course by chilling season. it suffers delay. not loss and waits only for a change in the wind to awaken again and roll nWards.-Samuel Taylor Coleridge.

JACKLING HOLDINGS
 SHOW BIG GAINS

BOSTON. Aug. G. The quarterly reports of the Utah and Chino were easily the best these properties have ever issued. The production, costs, and earnings all established new rec ords. Utah's earnings of S4.412,O0O were two and one-half times the divi- dend, while the Chino company did even better with the dividend earned three times over
 The production was pushed to the limit in both cases. Utah producing in June at the rate of nearly 1SO.000,000 pounds per annum, while the Chino got its output up to nearly 7,OO0,0OO pounds. or at the rate of over S0,000- 900 pounds a year It is not to be ex- pected of course. that either of the properties will indefinitely keep up op- erations at this clip-but the stimulus of 2O-cent copper in the latter part of the quarter was enough for the man agement to make a great effort to reap a harvest. The result shows what can be done with such proper ties at the Utah and Chino when the occasion arises
 The costs achieved are stridngly H. illustrative to the efficiency of the whole organization; they show how quantity output when scientifically secured produces economy of opera tion. Utah's cost of 6.57 cents per pound would a few years ago have been considered impossible with a net recovery of but IS F pounds of copper per ton of ore. Chino's 6.1 cent cost adds it's eloquent testimony to the re- suits which in such a short period have been achieved at the New Mexi- can property.
 While the dividends were earned so comfortably, the average price of copper for the quarter was below the price now obtaining Utah, for ex- ample. received 1898 cents and Chino 17.54 while electrolytic is now around IS cents.
 Ray Shove Gain
 Report of the Ray Consolidated for the quarter ended June 30, 1915, show a net earning of s1.s4O.SS6, or at the rate of SS.75 per share per annum; the earnings in the previous quarter were S741,5S9,; surplus after divi- dends were paid in the first quarter of 1915.
 The production amounted to 14,524,- 3SO pounds of copper compared with 14.46S,21S pounds in the first quarter The cost of production was 9.057 cents per pound.
