Copper production in 1918 averaged
200,OOO,OO0 pounds per month, or about
2,500,0OO,000 pounds for the year,
against pre-war production of 1,500,-
100000 pounds. Normal consumption
before the war was about 125,00O,0OO
pounds per month, divided nearly
equally between home and export
trade, the larger being the export
trade.
According to a preliminary estimate
of the United States Geological Sur
vey, Arizona produced $2O5, 900
worth Of copper, gold, silver, lead and
zinc in 1913. When the value of her
output Of manganese, tungsten, molyb-
denum, vanadium and other metals
and minerals is added to this total and
the aggregate will be increased by a
respectable figure, and it is confident
ly believed that this will surpass the
value of the production in 1917. Ari-
| IONA not only stands first among the
states of the Union as a copper pro-
ducer, but in 1913 she produced $780,
100000 worth Of this metal in excess
of the combined production of Alas
ka, California, Idaho, Colorado, Ore
gon, Nevada, New Mexico, South Da-
kota and Washington and her output
| was about $13,OOO,OOO in excess of that

beginning to make their weekly pill
grimages to Baltimore to find out
what is going on. On both sides eff
forts are being made to hold back
the discussions of candidates for
State offices until after the city fight
is over. But it seems that it will be
impossible to carry out any such a
plan. A very large number of people
are more interested in State than in
city politics, and are not to be silenc-
ed. In years gone by, efforts have
been made to keep off all talk about
candidates unit! certain leaders were
ready, but the effort has always fail
ed, as it is failing now. The county
people who come to town, and many
of the city people, will continue to
talk about candidates for Governor
and other positions in spite of the
leaders. They have always done so,
and they are not going to stop now.
They will express their views now
and in the future, just as they have
done in the past, and say what they
want to in order to influence public
sentiment the way they wish it to go,
so that it will help their favorites
and place obstacles in the way of
those whom they may wish TO hinder
in the attainment of their goal

Politics In all Quarters
Now Becoming Active

Baltimore, Md, Jan. with the
opening. of the new year, the politi-
clans are becoming more and more
active, and all in all, factions and
parties, are preparing for the strenu
Gus work in the several primary, gen
eral and local campaigns which will
take place the present year of 1919.
The State offices, from Governor
down. are all to be filled this year. A
new General Assembly is to be cleo
ted, and States Attorneys. Sheriffs,
and other places are to be filled il
all the counties. while in Baltimore
an entirely new city administration is
to be elected and put in place early
in May. Altogether, therefore, the
leaders and voters of Maryland will
be kept busy from the present time
on to the late fall, and after a short
interval, then the new State admins
tration will be inaugurated with
new legislature, whihc will hold the
public attention, so far as Maryland
matters are concerned, until the
spring time of 1920.
The city cohorts are preparing for
battle even now. 1t is generally I'M
derstood that Mayor Preston has
made up his mind to be a candidate
for a third term, and that in this
fight he will be opposed by Mr.. Geo.
Weems Williams, an able and popu-
lar member of the bar. Mr. Preston
will have back of him the whole force
of the city administration, and the
, old city organization, of which Mr..
John j. Mahon is the able and popu-
| lar leader, and, in this fight for the
denomination of the Mayor, Mr.. Ma
hon will be aided by a large force of
business men who are anxious TO
have the present thoroughly efficient
municipal administration continued
in power for four more years.
Against Mr. Preston will be found
arrayed the whole force of the State
Government, led by the Governor in
person, and aided by the Kelly fac
ton and the followers of Mr.. Frank
Furst. The Governor is in town al
most every day, and spends not a
small portion of his time marshaling
his office holders and followers, ready
for the approaching contest. and the
indications are that when the battle
is fairly on its way, it will be po-
litical battle of such proportions as
has not been seen in Maryland for
some years, and how it will end is
problem unsolved, for both sides have
skill, strength aud money to carry on
the fray to the limit. And the chan
ces are that more mud-slinging will
take place than has been seen in the
old town for a long period of years.
Both sides mean business, and botn
sides will put forth every effort, and
every sort of effort to win. The pre-
liminary sounds of the contest are al
ready in the air. and by the first of
next month they will fill the town to
the exclusion of almost everything
else, and hold the attention of the
people despite the Peace Conference
in Paris, and the doings of the Pres1-
dent on the other side of the sea.
Early in the season as it is, the
county statesmen of both parties are

DRYS CONFIDENT
OF EARLY VICTORY

Washington, Jan. 9.-"Drys" in
Congress today were confident that
wet" attempts to have the courts
declare the prohibition am endment
to the federal Constitution invalid
would fail.
They also declared that they were
assured that the ratification by the
So States necessary to make the
amendment operative would be ac.-
complished by the last Of next week.
I'VE would have the necessary
votes of State Legislatures by the
end of this week if all of them could
meet in time" said Representative
Randall. Of California. THE Su-
preme Court knocked out the princi-
pal wet" contention last Tuesday
when it decided that the Webb-Ken-
yon law was not unconstitutional be-
cause it was passed over the Presi-
dents veto by vote of two-thirds of
the whole Congress.
Under this decision, which will
stand as a precedent, the constitu-
tional phrases CT the two-thirds and
three-fourths' vote will mean the per-
centages of those present.
The other contention of the liquor
forces that the amendment is in
valid because of provision that 1t
must be adopted within seven years,
Randall declared, would not stand.
"In the first place, it is doubtful
whether the Supreme Court would
pass on a measure which has gone
through the process necessary to
make it a part of the federal Con-
stitution," he said. at has never
done So yet.
Second, the dry amendment will
be ratified long before the seven-year
limitation expires, so that this pro-
vision would have no practical eff
feet"

CARTER INDICTED
ON CHARGE OF
MAILING A BOMB
Pleads Not Guilty and Is
Ordered Held Under $4,000
Bond in Addition to
$1,000 in State Case

Atlanta, October 21-Paul B. Carter, a
local machinist, was indicted by fed
eral grand jury here today on charges
of having sent an Internal machine
through the mails to Capt. John Kneubel
of Ebenezer, N. Y.
On being arraigned late today Carter
pleaded notguilty, and was ordered held
under $1,000 bond in addition to $1,000
bond in state case charging him with
assault and battery on his wife, from
whom he had been separated.
Jealousy of his wife, for which the
prosecution contends there was no mo-
tive, was the theory on which postal in
spectors worked. Captain Kneubel and
Miss Mary Schulz, keeper of a boarding
house in Philadelphia, where Carter is
alleged to have manufactured the instru-
ment, were among witnesses appearing
before the grand jury.
The machine was mailed September
20 last, according to postal inspectors,
but stamp cancelling machine bent the
wires and rendered it harmless. Pois-
oned needles, they allege, also were sent
to Mrs Carter, her father and an at
torney. representing her in divorce pro-
ceedings
Carter is In Jail here. but his attor-
neys said he would make both bonds in
few days. Date for the trial was not

Mrs. Anna Fletcher, Philadelphia wo-

with which she had night sweats. She had
had much trouble with her kidneys and blad-

without much hope, but few doses began
to make her feel better. and by the time
she had taken three bottles of it, the night
sweats had all stopped and she slept peace
fully all night through, while the kidneys
had resumed their normal functions. This
is a common story to people who follow
the progress that NJ Vim is making. 1t
seems to be especially beneficial in cases
of weakness, no matter whether they man.
fest themselves in that particular type of
trouble or in some other functional dis

DIVISION IN RANKS
Of EP|SCOPAL|ANS
APPEARS POSSIBLE


Detroit, October 21.-Possibility of
division in the Protestant Episcopal
church was brought to the attention of
the triennial general convention here
again today during a tight on the floor
of the house of deputies against the
acceptance of a prayer for the blessing
of graves. Thomas Nelson Page, for
mer United States ambassador to Italy,
denouncing the adoption of prayers for
the dead. swayed the delegates to such
an extent that the prayer objected to
was rejected.
Bishop Chauncey B. Brewster of Con-
nectieut in an address outlining So
cial policy for the church suggested a
stand for right and justice everywhere;
living wages, the principle of collective
bargaining, freedom of the individual
worker from coercion, part for the
employed in the internal management
of industry, a weekly rest day, stopping
of exploitation of labor of women and
children, placing economies on a broad
er human basis, reorganization of in
dustry which must be an end to auto
cratic mastership, an end to paternal
patronage in welfare work and reas-
enable relations of partnership between
capital and labor.
The speaker voiced belief that al
though the industrial conference in
Washington might not accomplish that
for which it was called, "the trained
minds of capital and labor will yet
work out just solution of their prob
lens"
In line with this attitude was the
adoption of resolutions by the house
of deputies urging capital and labor to
accept "the people of partnership as
the business aspect of BROTHERHOOD to
submit all differences to arbitration and
recognize service to the general com
munity rather than individual gain as
the primary motive in all endeavor.
