industrial peace, the forerunner in my
judgment of even better days to come,
both material and spiritual, The in
dustrial maelstrom has carved path
of destruction in nearly every other
state and we have, therefore, just
cause in Arizona to be thankful for
the past, and look forward with stead
fast optimism to the year now facing
us. With assurances of a continuance
of this happy state of affairs, capital
large and small, can and doubtless will
feel no hesitancy in carrying on it's
enterprises, realizing that the protec-
ton given will absolutely safeguard
all investments and yield abundant
returns. Therefore let US turn to the
future with that indomitable courage
which has brought Arizona thus far
safely along the road of progress and
which holds out promise beyond our
r,ost sanguine expectations for the
welfare of our beloved state.

Pounds in Last Four Weeks.

BOSTON-Our investigations of
the copper situation show clearly
that American manufacturers are
today consuming over Is per cent
of normal refinery production In
former years home demand was re-
lied upon to take only 40 per cent
to so per cent of our output and of
late years it has absorbed 60 per
cent. Today copper is going into
domestic MEETINGS at a rate far be-
yond all previous records, says the
Boston News Bureau.
In consequence of large sales of
copper during the past four weeks,
the big copper producers are very
much more hopeful concerning the
metal outlook.
Since about the goth of November,
or say during the past four weeks.
sales have been not far from 25O,-
100000 pounds. Deliveries extend
into March.
Very little of this copper has been
sold at under 18 3-4c while copper
for export has been sold in very
satisfactory quantities at 19c. 1t
costs more to do export copper bust
ness and in contrast with the days
when the foreigner benefited at the
expense of the home consumer in
respect to his American copper re-
quirements, he is compelled today to
pay whatever additional cost is in
volved in international shipments.
Unsold stocks of copper in this
country are placed t'y one of the
largest interests in the business at
between 4O0,000,O00 and 45O,OOO,OO0.
pounds. To quote his words: y
1--WE are on our way toward a
very much better situation. 1 have
a very confident belief that we have
seen the bottom, and that 1920 is
going to be good copper year.
Production has been kept down
within reasonable limits, while home
consumption today is greater than
ever before in our history. I place
the domestic consumption at be-
tween 14O,00O,OOO pounds and $780,
100000 pounds per month.
Il would not go so far as to say
that we are entirely out of the
woods; we still may have a few
troubles, but we arc encouraged by
the fact that we are rapidly turning
into money, or will when deliveries
on recent sales have Eeen made,
large part of the copper that we
have been carrying. We still have
plenty of copper to go round, but
we are eating into the surplus in
lively fashion.
"The foreign demand is increasing
very noticeably. Great Britain has
been a substantial buyer, France is
fair buyer, and Japan a very large
buyer, while we have sold some cop
per during the past few days to
Germany and settlement has been
made in American dollars.
"a month ago the British govern
ment offered its stock of copper for
sale. 1t did not exceed 10000 tons
and represented scrapings of all
kinds. Undoubtedly by this time
this copper has been taken off the
governments hands,"

The census takers for the city of
Newberry report that they have fin
ished the count Of the people in the
city. They are intelligent citizens of
the town and are interested in two
ways in having the count correct, one,
they are paid on a per capita basis,
and besides as citizens they want the
city to have all the population to
which it is entitled. At the same time
it is barely possible, however careful
they may have been, that they may
have failed to count some one or
more persons. The supervisor is
anxious to have correct count of
the people. He will not send the
papers to Washington for several
days yet and if any one has not been
counted, or if any one knows of any
persons who have not been counted,
make the complaint now before the
papers are sent off, because then it
will be too late for the purposes of
this census, and too late to make a
kick and say that the work has not
been properly done. There are al
ways people in every community who
seem to take a delight in criticizing
the work of others. Now if you have
any complaint to make let it come
along right now. 1t will do no good
to say that the people were not all
counted after the official figures are
made up. If you know of anyone let
it be known right now while there is
vet time to add the names.

Eyes of the World"


Readers of eyes of the World" in
book form will recall in that remark
able story of California many people
and situations that should provide
rare opportunities for character por-
trayal. For this reason many who
were charmed by Harold Bell
Wright's graphic and melodramatic
romances of California will probably
see in the elaborate film version at
the opera house Thursday and Friday,
January 20 and 80, drama of alb
; sorbing interest and strength along
these lines.
AS for their opportunities, take,
for instance, the character of Le-
Grange, the cynical writer, as reveal
ed in his own words in the novel:
working! Me? 1 don't work any
where. I am a literary scavenger.
I haunt the intellectual slaughter
pens and live by the putrid offal that
self-respecting writer's reject. / CLEAN
the sinking materials for my stories
from the sewers and cesspools Of life.
For the dollars they pay I furnish
NV readers with those thrills that pub
lie decency forbids them to expert
ence first hand. My books breed
moral pestilence and spiritual disease.
The unholy filth / write fouls the
minds and pollutes the imaginations
of my readers. / am an instigator OF
degrading immortality and unmention-
able crimes. Work! No, young man,
I don't work. Just now am doing
penance in this damned town. My
rotten imaginings have proven too
much, even for me-and the doctors
have sent me west to recuperate.
Then there's Taine, the dissoulute
product of life of self-indulgence
and low ideals. He is thus sketched
in the authors graphic words:
"The hideous ruin that Mr.. Tame
had, in himself, wrought by the
criminal dissipation of his manhood's
strength, and by the debasing of his
physical appetites and passions, was
to Aaron King, now, token of the
intellectual, spiritual and moral ruin
that alone can result from debased
and depraved dissipation of an artists
creative power"

Gov. Cooper is correct and sane
when he intimates that in his opinion
the first vote that should be given to
the women is a vote to ascertain if
they really want the suffrage, and if
they do then it will be good time to
talk about giving it to them. A few
women can make a big noise about
it, but the real test and the proper
test is to let the women themselves
say what they want. Why not?

HOW We MADE GOOD
MONEY LAST YEAR
HASTINGS Declares That Southern
Farmers Can Repeat the Past
Years Prosperity, If
They Will

Atlanta, Ga.--(Special) 1.-THE gen
rrality of Southern farmers made real
money out of their farming operations
in 1919. more profit than most of them
ever made before. despite boil weeVll,
unfavorable seasons and labor short
age
This statement was made recently
by II. G.. Hastings, president of both
the Southeastern Fair Association and
the Georgia State Chamber OF Com
mercr, in discussing general farm
conditions in the South.
Very naturally most of this farm
PROSPERITY is credited to the high
nrice OF cotton and, of course, the high
price helped, but the real doWn-at-the-
ho,tom reason was that most farmers
owned their cotton when it was made
instead of owing it for food ana
grain bought on credit. as used TO be
the case when the practice was 10
grow all or nearly all cotton and buy
on credit all or nearly all food, gram,
etc. :. ,.
"Present farm prosperity is due
largely to what Dr.. Bradford Knapp,
head of the demonstration work, has
ca antlv termed Safe Farming which
is nothing more or less than growing
on home acres every pound OF 1000,
qrain and forage needed for family
and live stock use. When this is done
every other available acre can wisely
and safely be put in cotton or other
cash crop.
"The expense Of making cotton or
other cash crop is, either directly or
INDIRECTLY, the cost of food for man
and beast that works the crop. Most
items of food and grain can be pro-
duced on southern farms at one-thlrd
tn one-half what those same items
cost from supply merchants.
"We made money last year by fol
lowing the only way that insures per.
manent farm prosperity nome pro-
duction of homo food and gram needs.
We can repeat this money making IN
1920 by following the same common
sense way that put US right last year
and will keep US right in 1920 and

gardener and reliable man. He
worked gardens for many of our
citnzens, besides bringing dinner fo1
Mr.. Jerry B. Walton every day fo1
six years. He will be missed, as al

We hope that the Newberry dele
CATION will make revision at once for
tie building of a permanent all the
year round road between Newberry
and Whitmire. That is a road that
should be built. This Whitmire sec
tion of the county has never had the
attention it deserves from the road
people of Newberry. 1t is a large
taxpaying community and should have
some Of the money put into the roads.
And besides from selfish standpoint
such an investment would be worth
more to the remaining portion of the
county in direct and indirect benefits
than it would be to the Whitmire sec
ton itself. But on the broader posi-
tion it is something that should be
done, and it should be done right now.

by Marshall Ingalls, Mays, Near East

An Arab slave mark tattooted In
indelible ink at the base of her right

girl had been slave of the Moham,
medans. She was met at the dock by
her brother, John n. Karagheusian

lives in Minneapolis. He said he had
not seen his sister in twelve years.

IRISH SUSPECTS
 ARE ROUNDED UP

DUBLIN, Nov 23.-The vigorous activities of the authoritSs leave little doubt that determined and concerted efforts are being made to round up every republican suspected of being active in outrages. The military forces are tightening the cordon about Dublin and gradually working in toward the center, as was done during tSe Easter rebellion of 1916 IT is believed a number of re- publican leaders in the provinces, finding the pursuit too hot, have talk en tefuge in Dublin.
 The total arrests today are under stood to be huge but the government refuses to divuige the arrests. The Dublin castle authorities, however, admit the prisons are so full that it has become necessary to utilize the castle itself and that it was in a lumber room in the castle that Pet CT Clancy and two others wele shot yesterday.
