ARIZONA MINING JouRNAL)

| V ARIZONA MINING JoURNAL) Shipments of copper by American producers during the last five months representing export and domestic deliveries to consumers have aver aged better than 160,0O0,0OO pounds, or more than 20,00O,OoO pounds a month above North and South Ameri- can output.
 Domestic mine production of cop per is around S5,OOO,OoO pounds of copper a month. This can be ex- pected to increase to around 95,OOO,- 900 pounds by February. Produc- tion by Canadian. Mexican, South American and African mines that is shipped or sold here is around 45,- 100000 pounds month. This can be expected to increase to around 6O,000,000 pounds by the end of January, says the Wall Street Jour nal.
 Refined copper coming on Ameri- can market for sale is at present about 140,000,00O pounds a month as copper for scrap comes to 7,000,- 900 to 10,0OO,000 pounds. By Feb ruary, mine output will probably have increased to about 155 100000 pounds of copper a month, while it is doubt full whether scrap supply will be more than about 5,000,000 pounds at the most by then.
 Should domestic consumption con tinue at rate of 100,000,000 pounds of copper a month, that of last half year, output and consumption will be about in balance by February.
 Viewing the future of the copper industry with decided optimism and announcing a program of expansion rather than one of retrenchment of operations at the United, Verde mine and shelter, Senator w. A. Clark president of the company, in a re- cent interview at Jerome, stated that the copper mining industry has every reason to look forward to an increasing business during the next few years.
 The domestic demand for copper, said Senator Clark, '.iS increasing rapidly and Europe must settle down to business before long and that set ting down will mean a greatly in creased demand for the metal. There is positive shortage of the req metal in Europe to day and - this means that the moment they. adjust themselves over there the demand will be sufficiently great to insure a long period of prosperity for the copper mines of the southwest"
 Speaking of the immediate plans for the United Verde, the Senator said: "I can see no reason at this time for any diminution of our ac-

NACOZARI MINING CAMP TURNING OUT THREE
 MILLION A MONTH

DOUGLAS, Nov 19-Sixteen hun dred tons of ore are being concen- trated daily at Nacozari, George r.. Buxton, president of BuXton-Smith company. said yesterday on his re turn from the Sonora town. Out of this tonnage three million pounds of copper are smelted at the local smelter which means that the ore runs around per cent. The com pany is working 1900 men and is planning on putting on more MeXi- can labor soon.
 During the past two years the con- pany has spent S3,500,000 in improve ments on machinery and a new concentrator, Buxton was told. Dur ing the past three years there has not been a single Serious accident in the mines or concentrating plant due to the safety first campaign conducted by the company.
 Everyone in the two towns, Naco- zari and Pilares, appears to be en- toying lifs, the Country club and other amusements being an attrac- tion that appeals to all of them, Buxton said.

 ably. It is true that we have com pleted the major part of, our program Of new construction. but the new crushing plant alone means the ex- penditure of a million dollars or more and will afford employment to large force of men,
 An additional expression of optim- ism in connection with the future market for copper, especially in Europe, is found in the statement of k. l.. Agassiz, President of the Cal umet & Hecle and of the Copper Export Association, who has just re- turned from six weeks visit 70 England and France. MT. Agassiz says:
 T was very much impressed by conditions surrounding the copper consuming industry of England and continental Europe. For really the first time in three years I can see better times ahead for American cop per producers, particularly with re- ference to European sales.
 "France is today virtually con- suming her pre-war amount of cop per. General business in that coun- try is good. In Paris there is much municipal and private construction going on; streets are being repaired: new trolley tracks and cables are being laid and the French capital is today prosecuting vigorously the work of rebuilding itself that has been so long delayed.
 France has used up practically all of her scrap copper and I under stand that the amount remaining in England amounts to very little, but it is out of the hands of the specula- tors and in the hands of the con- sumers.''

AS TO KU KLUX KHAN

It looks to us as though the matter of the attempted organization in this place of a Ku Klux Klan is being taken too seriously.
 In the first place the fact that only native born Americans are eligible to membership in the Ku Klux organization precludes it making any great headway in Alaska. While there may be few here who would become affiliat- ed with it, they are so very few and of such narrow calibre that any organization fostered by them would be short lived.
 In the second place, the average Alaskan IS too broad-minded to have any desire to perse- cute any religious creed, race or nationality that may exist here. If there is any place on earth that a person can worship God accord ing to the dictates of his own conscience and with nothing to molest or make him afraid, that place is Alaska, and no good citizen will attempt to circumscribe, undermine or take away that d-given and American protected right and privilege. It was one of the princi- ples on which the American Government was founded and upon which has been constructed the greatest republic the world has ever known or ever will know.
 In the third place. it is not in keeping with the spirit of American manhood, American chivalry or American principle to hide be- betterment of conditions, and the strangers who are here for the purpose of dissemina- ting such cowardly and un-American doctrine had much better be engaged in some more hon. orable pursuit. The average broad gauge AL askan has no time for them no use for them 1-StrolIer's Weekly.

A YEAR OF PROMISE

Along about the first of each year the most popular of indoor sports is to prophecy that the con- ing year is be commencement of era of pros pery. This pastime is not confined to Alaska but is almost universal and universal is the outcome of prohpesy except in the few instances where they have been based upon something more tangible than the feeling that things as bad as they can be there must be change better. There is just point where the foundation of these predictions is unstable sand pile, for there is no point in hu- man existence where things bad they cannot be worse.
 As is still some distance from the end of the year, and believing have sufficiently stable foundation upon which fabricate prediction willing to risk the dishonor which usually prophets and assert that 1923 will witness great change for the bet ter all Alaska and particularly in the Valdez dis trct No small part of the credit for these better times will be due to those miners and prospectors who having waited long for capital to and develop their mines in have gone out and done their best in the face on long odds develop them themselves And if in cry instance they have not succeeded in bringing the mines to the point of production they have at least de- veoped them to the point where they have something to show the investor that is far more attractive than prospect be. however rich, and has multi piled by many times their chances of securing funds for further development
 During the past summer there has been several properties in this section inspected by capitalists with the result that there number of deals under for the development these properties, and others have already been consummaed There is doubt that among the many prospects in this district of them will prove extremely profitable to develop and there literally hundreds of them from which to make choice
 Work on the Cuross property will be carried a large scale the Granite, which has already produced more than a half million, will be re-opened, the Val Gold will be operated considerable scae there promising indications that the Granby people will open the Midas the Hamilton property at Port Wells has been bonded and it is planned commence opera ons within short time there, several deals are ported to be under in the Mineral Creek district, and it is reported that deal has been op- ration of the Gold Creek placer ground large All these furnish, it would seem, firm foundation for prediction that the 1923 will witness greater activity in the mining line in this district than many years and it may well to be the beginning of new of prosperity for this district There is not in all Alaska section offering greater opportunities the mining man than the Valdez district and after many years it is finally coming into it's own-Valdez Miner

AWAIT THE OUTLOOK

The Railway and Marine News for Septem- ber, published in Seattle, has leading editor ial entitled "What Will the Outlook Say' In commenting upon the "pleasurable antlclpa- tion'' with which the report on Alaska by Sherman Rogers, of the Outlook staff, will be awaited the magazine goes on to say:
 ''The Outlook, eleven years ago this summer ran a series of articles in which ''Dick' Ryan was dgnified, Controller Bay was made port of physical superiority and Clifford Pinchot was upheld The Outlook's grave error was first answered by, the late J. P. Parkinson at that time editor of Railway X Marine News in full page editorial, appearing August lst Later in the summer and fall the Daily Alas kan of Cordova printed series of articles ad- dressed to The Outlook and the New York publication as well other papers and public officials were forced to drop "Dlck' Ryan and the whole Controller Bay bubble Later The Outlook started another series of articles in which its former editorial stand on Con- troller Bay was ignored. In the Cordova Alas kan of January 29 1912 is found commenda tory editorial captioned ''Change to Policy of Fairness'' ; Our files have many clippings from the ''Pinchot Press'' of that and other periods, all of which make interesting reading at this particular time and which greatly add to the speculation over the forthcoming Outlook ar tices. The Pinchot policies have prevailed since 1906 and a railroad has been completed, hut let The Outlook mark this well-Canadian coal and American lumber are in this year of 1922 still going into the territory which Pin chot said had an almost inexhaustable supply of timber and coal. The Outlook was one of the chief editorial packers of Pinchot and now when the black pail of Pinchotism has stifled the territory it is wondered how that paper can treat the Alaska problems in the face of ;ts sponsorship of Clifford Pnchot and the wholly ridiculous attitude it edtorialy placed itself in over the "Dick" Ryan Controller Bay fiasco of eleven years ago this summer.

PROFESSOR TROUBLE

TEe difficulty with lessons is remembering them.
 Lessons easily learned are easily forgotten. If every student in school or college could carry away everything he learns, education would be of considerably more benefit than it is.
 Tn the university course called Life, there is one instructor who always has big class, and whose students heed what he has to tell them.
 That instructor is Professor Trouble
 It is impossible to cut his classes
 There is no way to get out of the work that he prescribes for you.
 His exercises keep the mind busy and the faculties on the alert.
 His graduates are the men who are doing the big things in the world and incidentally making the big money
 It's easy enought to know his students.
 They are the men and women who are not easily discouraged, because they have found out that almost anything can be done if it has to be done.
 Their minds, having conquered difficulties, are ready for more difficulties and not at all discouraged when they come along.

in the learning of it that you will have less trouble with harder lessons that are to come by an by.
 Fortunately there are all sorts of trouble in the world. Nobody ever escapes all of them.
 The individual who gets plenty of them in youth and learns how to get out of them with out any sacrifice of self-respect or without loading them on other peoples shoulders is pretty we'll equipped for the game when he gets to be well into it.
 His mind gets so accustomed to taking things easy that when difficulty comes along he hasn't the least idea what to do.
 So he becomes a failure and leads useless and an unhappy existence, and all because he never went to the best teacher that can be found in the whole world. - "Uncommon Sense''-John Blake.

NOT WASTE PAPER YET

 "The short story writer has a hard time of it at first. This makes him bitter and hopeless. Once in in the old, bad days I said to the woman who cleaned my attic room
 " There was a lot of paper on my desk. What has become of it?'
