On seventh day stern frame was in place.
 On 14th day boilers were put on board.
 On 21st day stern post was bored and stern tube put in place.
 On 22nd day masts were stepped and engine installation was begun.
 On 24th day funnel was put in place.
 On 26th day machinery was all in and engine completely installed.
 From the 26th day to launch, the time was occupied in putting on fin ishing touches.
 We are reminded by these feats of labor of some of the accounts given by Elliot Lord in his fascinating his tory of "Comstock Mining and Miners ' We take some of the stories from his account as worthy of the attention of our readers:
 October 26. 1875, a coal-oil lamp was upset in a little lodging house in Vir- gini2 City. and flames filled the house in a moment Famed by the wind. the flames leaped from roof to roof, until the whole quarter was on fire and the imminent peril of the city was seen. Bells rang out the alarm, with their sharp. startling clangor. and steam whistles blew ear-piercing

The newspapers are interesting read ing these days, and particularly so to an engineer. for they bring to his at- tention prospective plans, the working out of large organizations, and the ac- complishment of construction work in unprecedented time, says the Engineer ing and Mining Journal. The building of ships, a structural engineering job, commands first attention. On April 21 there was published the record of the Skinner & Eddy Corporation, of Seattle. That firm built an SS00-ton steel ship in 55 working days from the date of the keel laying. On the same date, at the Bethlehem Shipbuilding Corporation. the erection of the steel framework of five destroyers was re- ported as having been accomplished in 50 minutes after the laying of the keels The freighter "Tuckahoe" was launch ed in 27 days from the time the keel was laid. The events in the progress of this rapid construction were given by the New York Times as follows:
 Keel laid April 8.
 Four days later double bottom was completed.
 Six days later frames and bulk beads were erected and portion of sheIl plating finished.

 Thus the great fire of Virginia City started. entailing a loss of $10.0O0.O0O and 2O00 buildings and many mining plants.
 On the morning after the fire. the smoking timbers and debris were cooled by buckets of water and streams from the hydrants in hun dreds of places. and the lumber which came in by rail was placed on the reeking ground. The work of building went on continuously all day long and far into the night. in the midst of storms as well as in fair weather. A tornado blew down a large part of the newly erected houses during the week after the fire. but the wrecks were cleared away as soon as the storm ceased. and building was resumed. Sixty days after the fire. the principal streets running through the burned districts were lined with business houses. the majority of which were better built than those destroyed. and

RELIEF ASKED FOR MINE
 OPENERS
McGrath Suggests Means for Making Easier the Part
 Played by Those Pioneering New Territory for Mineral

To encourage the development of new mining properties during the wal period instead of maintaining a heavy handicap on such work, is the object of suggestions which have been made to the American Mining Congress by T. O. McGrath. He proposes that in promised revision of federal tax pro visions it be provided that new mines shall not be burdened with the taxes imposed upon producers until the new properties shall have reached perma. nent ore development and output es tablishing their commercial value.
 Unless this is done, McGrath points out, the investment cannot be secured that is necessary to the opening Of new properties. The latter must be had in order that the industry can offset the inroads being made upon established mines under war emergen. cies pressure. Unless such offset can be brought about, the nation will not be in position at the end of the war to seize the trade opportunities it must avail itself of in greater measure than ever before in order to employ the men coming back. from Europe and those remaining at home in the supply service of the country.
 Mir McGrath. auditor of the Shat tuck-Arizona Copper O., has given a great deal of study to the federal tax laws and has advanced a number of papers on the subject which have re- ceived wide recognition because of the thorCughness and exceptional infor- nation with which the author deals with his subject His efforts in behalf of developing properties is of particu- lar interest at this time to the many small operators in the state who are endeavoring to bring in new properties as well as to some large interests which have millions tied up in new properties from which they are yet to begin receiving returns Among these may be cited Ray Hercules and Denn- Arizona. The latter has more than $4,000,000 invested upon which the in- vestOrs have had not even interest dur ing the period of more than 13 years the property has been under develop ment It is now beginning to make paying shipments but is still to attain the class of a proven mine of large value. McGrath's letter to the Ameri- can Mining Congress follows:
 Suggestions to be covered by the proposed new tax law which I think would be equitable to the mining in dustry are as follows:
 "1. (a) (The Proposition) That net returns from mines shall not be con sidered income subject to insome tax until the total earnings plus the total net value of ore in sight shall be equal to or greater than the investment in property and equipment of property plus 69t interest figured annually on the investment.
 "(b) (The Procedure) At the end of any year when the net value of the ore reserves plus the net earnings to date shall be equal to or greater than the total investment in property and equipment plus 61t interest thereon then there shall be submitted to the Commissioner of Internal Revenue a statement showing the total invest ment in property and equipment, the total tonnage mined and developed the total net value of the developed ore. and the total net earnings, or in

shaft into the hill, but found no ore, though it was run in about 300 feet. Then he sunk a shaft at the mouth Of the tunnel. Just about the time he was starting this work he asked me to get him a good man to take charge. We met on that occasion in Dr. Rickett's assay office. l recommended a man by the name of George PrOut and Dr. Douglas hired him.
 "A little later the doctor sent to me and asked me to get him a second hand whim. l did so. As the shaft went down on the Atlanta l helped sink it, being hired with my two-horse team to work the whim. l remember one day Prout was kicking to PrOfes- sor Douglas about continuing the work on the shaft. He said he thought it was sending good money after bad.
 "Never you mind Prout. Just keep on working like I tell you. That noun tain is just solid ore whenever We can get down into it. said the doctor.
 When the shaft had gone down about 200 feet it ran into a mighty rich body of ore Then Dr. Douglas discovered that while it was on the Atlanta ground, the Copper Queen peo- pie had opened it up and this ore was what they were running their shelter on. He went to the Copper Queen people and said to them: Now, gen. tlemen, here is the situation We face. You have a shelter and we have the ore. It's either a law suit or a con oDIfI1Hfnra. tr-hf IA nhnnGn Q pf They consolidated and from that time on the city of Bisbee began to improve. The new company moved the old 30-ton furnace from the present Phelps Dodge store site to a site near the Czar shaft. Three larger furnaces of a special type designed by Dr. Douglas were built. Two years later the doc tor put in converter and roasting fur mace of his own design. Shortly after ward the company bought Mrs. ! Crosses store and put in its own store, which was the beginning of the Phelps Dodge Mercantile company. The first railroad was built out of here to Fair banks about 1888.

James Douglas. eminent scientist, authority in metallurgy and one of the men of America most noted for phil anthropy, who died late last month in New York. was the same James Doug las who, when more youthful and viz orous, aided so largely in the upbuild- ing of Arizona. The story of his later success is known to the world His early struggles to bring order out of chaos. here in the Warren District, his herculean efforts to advance the welfare of the community, largely de- pendent upon him, and properly to represent the men who had trusted in his integrity and judgement-all these things are best told by one who knew him intimately in the early days, John s. Williams, a pioneer of Arizona and of Bisbee
 q first met Dr. Douglas, though we all called him professor in those days, in Lordsburg, N M., in the spring of 1882 He was on his way from the Copper Basin country to Clifton, where his people afterward bought ground. l never will forget our meeting because of a funny incident. Dr. Douglas had just finished eating and had no money except a ten dollar bill. The landlady couldn't change it. There was an old broken down prospector sitting at the table. When he got up he rammed his hand down in his pocket and handed the woman a dollar, remarking: "Tn pay for the old fellows dinner at the same time indicating Dr. Douglas. Al ter he had gone out the doctor laughed Isn't that the west all over? he said "Ill gamble with you that dollar was the last cent that old chap had Well I'll make it up to him later. I've got several men prospecting for me out in the hills and job may look good to him"
 "The doctor didn't look as prosper Ous as might have been. which was the thing that made the incident funny He had been out in the hills for sever al weeks and his face was covered with whiskers. His shirt was split down the back and his back was tan ned where the sun had struck it through that slit He was with big people and doubtless was getting a bis salary, but he was careless about hi: dress. He used. to drive around be hind a couple of wild mustang ponies in a blackboard

 The latest addition to the modern type change houses of the district has just beer completed by the P.

 The new change house is built of corrugated iron. with a concrete floor.
 Around the walls are built small lockers with shelves on which shoes CT other small articles can be placed. Attached to the ceiling are sets of pull leys, each with ropes leading into the various lockers. A man going into the change house to go on shift takes off his street clothes, places them on

A KILLING BLOW

CFrom Mining & Scientific Press)
 "Wcrk or fight" was the decree that dispelled the blissful dreams of that class of tramp labor from whi-h the ranks of the l. W. W. mostly have been recruited The great mass of American labor has nothing in common with those pa riahs of the industrial world Now another blow has been struck at the same shiftless sowern of dis sention. The tramp worker is on- ly a degree above the hobo; they are varieties of the same species. and are for sale to any dealer in iniguity. Thus. the revelations at Chicago have shown how the l. w. W. were used as an instrument of the most corrupt propaganda ever known to man-the propaganda of German kultur. The tramp dis guised as a workman has worn the 'eroueh' as his most conspicuous garment; he has disturbed the peace of honest men who labor with their hands to provide homes and loving care for wives and children. It is he, more than any other. who has fought against the right of em- ployers to dischargd men from ser vice except under nhrrow rules es- tablished by the labor unions, while at the same time insisting upon the privilege of asking for his time whenever it might suit his whim, regardless of the gap his sudden departure might create in the ranks of the miners, the millmen, or the factory hands. The president has now created a war-labOr board. and after August 1 the employment and distribution of certain classes of workmen will come under federal direction.

Mayor Flags All
But Smith in Talk
For Tiger Nominee
Trusts, Millionaires, Papers
and Transit Companies
All Bad, He Says

In speech last night bade before
the Business Mems League, which
supported him last fall, Mayor Hylan
urged his few hearers to do their
part in helping to elect Alfred E.
Smith as Governor Mayor Hylan
read his speech from manuscript. In
it ne attacked trusts, mopopolies. mill
aonaires, transit companies, privilege
seeking classes, profiteers and news
papers.
With the exception OF the news
papers, the Mayors attacks were in
general terms. His references to the
newspapers follow:
"He (Smith) is q strong advocate
Of municipal operation of public ut IL
ties in the interests OF the people.
There are many people who believe in
municipal ownership, but fear that
the municipality could not, or would
not, operate our public utilities as
cheapiy or as we'll as the corporations
do. This is because these people are
dependent for their inf srmatiou on
such matters very largely, if not ex
cluslvely, upon newspapers which are
the servants of the corporate inter
ests and must color the news to salts
fy the standard set by their backeds.
"These papers persistently di tort
the facts and omit all evidence in
favor of the reform proposed. To
these. people particularly l wish to
say that even if it were true that the
city could not operate our railroads
and lighting plants as proftably as
the corporations 70, still it would be
IN the interest of the community to
operate them even though we made no
more public utility millionn Tres"
The Mayor made a guarded attack
on the Federal Fuel Administration,
with whom he has been engaged in a
one-sided controversy for more than
q fortnight, the officials of the Fuel
Administrator refusing to take part in
the discussion, except TO make polite
replies to what some of them have
characterized as unfair attacks On
this score he said:
We need men in public office who
will help to break the coal combine
so that the people can purchase coal
at reasonable price"
The Mayor was introduced by Pres
ton P. Lynn, president of the lea~ue
who made spirited plea for Smith :
election.
