 In the bringing about of successful treatment, which means profitable handling, of low grade ores is the most interesting and important phase of re- cent and present work in the state, and it is to be said that in this it is lead
 ing all others as it is in tonnage of copper production. At Clifton the management llttS edtttlil- plished very much of general benefit in finding the way to successfully treat tailings with copper content of around l per cent. At Ray, the Ray Consoli
 dated management is bringing to com
 pletion the working out of intricate problems which it has had to solve, and which have compelled the employment of much time, patience and deep study for all of which there is ample reward near at hand for everybody concerned At Miami there is being brought to final proof some very highly important en- deavor which will result in general ben efits in association with the treatment of ores of peculiar character but com mon occurrence, and which will make q l per cent grade available as profit able commodity. Of this 1 per cent there are large quantities awaiting treatment in not only that district but in others. Miami Copper and Inter- national smelter arrangements are both engaged on problems somewhat akin in this respect At Ajo the problems which New Cornelia has solved and will shortly give proof of in the output of copper from it's new plants will have wide reaching influence and benefit At Chloride there have been important gains in the handling of zinc.

to thousands of people in Arizona and other thousands all over the country there are other millions going into the plants of mines which are erecting works for the treatment of their own ores, to the end of larger conservation of values and greater earnings. United Verde Extension leads in this list with expenditure of probably upwards of B, ,000 900.
 Ray Hercules has over a hundred thousand dollars worth of mill equip ment ordered for the treatment of ore resources which it has developed and is adding to with further exploration.

HOPEFUL SIGNS.

( We are not very strong believer
in signs as many people are, that is
we don't take much stock in it being
a sign of bad luck for black cat to
cross ones path or for dog to howl
at night and such superstitious rot
But every once in a while we do see
what we consider good signs when
we learn of the good results of con
certed action on the part of colored
men. Among the most notable Incl
dents recently are the nomination of
Louis B. Anderson, Esq, for alderman
In Chicago, over four competitors, and
more recently the nomination of DR..
Sumner A. Furniss, for Councilman on
the Republican ticket in the fourth
district of Indianapolis, Ind. He had
seven white competitors and he polled
more than double the amount of votes
his highest competitor received. There
were seven Democratic candidates in
his district but he polled 1882 votes
While all seven of them only polled
1924. His seven Republican compel
itors received total of 1857. If
DR.. Furniss holds his own on election
day his peace, calling and election
is sure" The same is true OF Lawyer
Anderson, SO we say these are hopeful
signs.

DR.. FRANK CRANE is RIGHT.

One of the versatile, wise and logi-
cal writer's of the day is DR.. Frank
Crane and his daily articles are among
the most widely read of the syndi-
Gated articles that appear in the daily
papers using them. They are always
good, sometimes better and one, the
best we have seen lately, is upon
Capital Punishment" which he says,
SHOULD have no place in a civilized
country" And then he gives an even
dozen of reasons why. One of the
best reasons he gives is that, capital
punishment is irreparable." The state
cannot give life and therefore should
not take it, nobody knows what death
means" This has been our private
and public opinion for many years
and it affords us much satisfaction to
find that we: are in Dr. Cranes class
in our belief. It makes very little
difference to the victim or his rela-
tives and friends whether he is MUIR
dered by mob, an individual or the
state. Capital punishment should be
abolished.

In the east Major General Wood Of
the United States army has started a
movement for a separate military
training school at New York City.
Every man in the east should look
upon this with disfavor and oppose
1t. :. There should be no segregation
IN an army of the United States If
there should be military training it
should be one and all. The men Of
the east who think, especially edi-
tors and writer's, should sound a death
knell to this Jim Crow proposition.
It will not be tolerated in the. west
and should not be in the east. In
other countries all men of all colors
and nationalities serve on the same
army and fight for the same flag be-
cause 1t does not segregate or dis
criminate. On the firing line we
should be as one. No longer members
Of the race should be looked upon as
cooks, but as citizen soldiers, wear
ing the rank of equality, with no in
justice or discrimination heralded
against them. In case of war num-
Der Of southern whites are getting it
IN their breasts to lead our men to the
battlefield. In the past they have
shown that they have proven them
selves to be a lot of chain drivers
and we advise them not to let a
southern man command them. When
you join a voluntary army be led by
members of your own race and not
southern officers. Be led by men of
the north who treat you like humans,
and not southerners, who treat you
like slaves.

come out and advocates the establish.

school where colored men may (if they
will accept the situation) have an op.

come officers if this country is

Mr.. J. E.. Spingarn is a Jew. His
people have suffered for hundreds OF

about Dubois recently, "unpurchasable

do they compromise the rights Of their
people.
Colored men who desire to prepare

NO COMPROMISE!

The short month of February

OF good men notably among whom
were George Washington, Abraham
Lincoln and last but not least Fred

whose memories are ever kept green,

would not compromise and he never
did. He did not hesitate to denounce
