ANNOUNCE
SETTLEMENT BASIS
NEW RULE ADOPTED OWING To
LARGE PRODUCTION OF
COPPER

Frank NJ. Manson, general man.
ager for the Western Ore Purchas-
ing returned Monday from
a business trip to Utah. Mr.. Man
son brought with him a new settle
ment basis on copper ore which a
been put into effect in all the west
ern states, and which the smelters,
he says, we're forced to adopt as a
measure of protection.
THE smelters are simply swamp
ed with ore and the Utah plants
have been forced to limit the big
shippers to the maximum tonnage
which their contracts call for
said he. "At the present rate OF
production of copper a sudden
break in the price of the metal
would cause a heavy loss. The
new schedule provides for the pay
ment of but rs per cent of the
price per pound above II cents.
The California smelters and some
OF the Arizona companies have
adopted this basis, placing the in
crease above IA cents instead of
II cents.
Everybody is at sea on the
silver market. Much depends upon
the outcome of the Mexican situa-
ton. If we have war with Meri-
co it will cut off a large produc-
ton and the price undoubtedly
will advance Reno Gazette.

Finds Big Arrowhead

While prospecting flor mineral
near Wells, John Watts found a
rare specimen of the handicraft
of the Indians of the forgotten
ages. 1t is in the shape of an Ia
usually large arrowhead. made of
white flint, perfectly shaped. with
out a flaw. 1t measures 8 lie
by 6 5-16 inches and is 3-S of
an inch thick. 1t is too large
and heavy for attachment to an
arrow and may have been attach
ed to a spear. The head is in
perfect condition, its edges be-
ing sharp, with the usual saw
like teeth. The find is consid-
cred to be a valuable one.

The MeddLer
II { the c0otftS you. pat Il on"

A good many people besides the Sc
lectmen feel that the town has paid
III. G. Barber round price for the
1924 odd feet of land which it has
bought for the purpose of widening
and Strengthening Main and Flat
streets. On the other hand, the select
men are doubtless justified in their be
lief that had the matter been left to a
court s commission, with the POSSIBLE
ity of litigation following the award,
the eventual cost to the town would
have been if anything more than the
amount which has been paid, i. e.,
$4,000. There are some facts which
warrant Mr.. Barber in contending that
the town acquired the land at bar
gain; namely the precedent established
when a slice of land at the corner of
Main and Elliot streets was acquired
in 1879 at price of more than 81 a
foot, also the price which Mr.. Barber
paid for the Judge and Ray properties.
However, The Meddler doesn t believe
that there are many people in town
who are of the opinion that Mr.. Bar
Der has been actually i'll treated in
this particular transaction, no matter
how hard he may try to show the ex-
tent of his sacrifice.

SETBACK FOR FAKE CURES.

It. was strengthened by decision of
the supreme court on January 10, up
holding the constitutionality of the
Sherley amendment Of 1912 to the
pure food and drugs act of six years
earlier. The act of 1906 was found to
apply only to false statements as to
the composition Of nostrums, and the
amendment of 1912 was passed to
cover the classifying Of claims as to
the curative effects of such prepare
tions.
Justice Hughes, in expressing the
decision of the court, said: eve find
no ground for saying that Congress
may not condemn interstate transpor-
tation of swindling preparations ac-
companied by false and fraudulent
statements, as well as lottery tickets. -
He points out also that the intention
to deceive in a matter of this sort is
as susceptible of proof as other facts
in every day life The case which
furnished the basis of the decision
was one involving an advertised cure
for tuberculosis, a disease for which
trained Investigators have as yet fail

THE MODEL EDITORIAL.

The model editorial may appeal to
you for its scathing criticism, which
burns and sizzles. 1t may show pro-
found knowledge of some particular
subject. 1t may show deep insight in
to the great world of nature, or it NAV
touch the heart by its pathetic appeal.
There are many other varied forms of
striking and trenchant writing, but one
which we have always liked is that
which expresses appreciation of a good
life or a good work. For this quality
we commend the following to the con
sideration of our readers, taken from
the Greenfield, Mass, Recorder under
the title of An Ink and Pen Monu-
ment:
No structure of stone or bronze
could be more enduring testimonial
to the worth OF the late Judge Francis
Thompson than the two volumes of the
history of Greenfield. He built it with
his own skillful hands, out of his own
keen and discriminating mind, adorned
it with happy humor, wrought it with
honest care and left it to his fellow
townsmen of his own time and of the
future as evidence of his own charac-
ter and his public spirit.
in the long life that was dutifully
lived, Judge Thompson did much else
for his town than to write its annals.
He was of that New England sort of
man, with primary instinct of devotion
to the community and of readiness to
help unselfishly, upon which the insti-
tutiOns of a town are grounded and out
of which come the real prosperity and
happiness of its people. The recollec-
tion of this sort of service fades with
time. 1t is painfully fugitive. But the
work of the faithful pen, devoted TO
the writing of faithful story of pub
lie events and fair judgments of the
men who have made the town, is endur-
ing. It's value appreciates with the
years.
Even so, and not to leave the work
he did to its own unaided testimony to
his worth, there seems to be duty of
recognition by the people of Greenfield
Of the service he gave. Even were it
no more permanent than the gather
ing of the citizens to speak their
valuation of the historian, there is
ample occasion for putting on record
some indication of an obligation that
is never to be quite discharged.

E. J. Chamberlin, native of Beth
