r A TAST COPPER MIIE. The magnltupe and extenslvt cl upon which copper mining U carried oq In (he upper peninsula of Michi gan, or, m it la Letter known, the Lake Buperlor copper country, la a matter of afttonUhmunt and Interest, even to those who are residing In the district, and to the stranger who tarries, a few days or weeks It Is be yond comprehension, for the reason that he can not realize how vast in depth and extent are the shafta and levi-U la so great a mine as the Cat uiuetand Ilecla the (ainoua copper mine of the world. The conglomerate vein which I being mined by the Calumet and Heel 1 made up of water-worn pebbles, bowlders and aand rock, Intermixed with which, like cem ent as It were, la the, pure native copper. No copper ore 1 found In this district, no matter how mleron- coplcttlly minute the particles of cop per may be disseminated; Between the matrix of rock it Is pure virgin copper, which, to bo made available for the market, has simply to be crushed out and washed out with water to prepare It for the fire that smelts it to a homogeneous maw suitable fur the artlxtlc to form Into the different shape required by the electrician or the mechanic. The Calumet and Ilecla has length of two miles of vein running nearly r.ort!i and south. The vein dips to the went at an angle of about 89 degrees, and therefore the shafts are sunk In that direction and angle. In nearly 30 years of mining the company has attained a depth of nearly 6000 feet, from which the heavily-laden skips or cars, drawn by the finest steel wire cable that monoy can buy, are hoisted to the surface at a sieed equal to the loco motives running on a standard rail way. The operation of mining has been to sink one level or lift 100 feet deep, then to drift along the vein to the next abaft and then to sink again to the next level, and then to break the vein rock down from above, fill It In tram cars which are dumped luto the skips that take them to the surface, and this has been going on fur 30 years. In the earlier days of the mine, however, very much slower uroirress was made, for the miner hud to strike the sharpened steel drill by blows of a sledgehanv mer In his hand. The blasting was done by common black gunpowder In coarser grains than those uned for firearms, and a horse attached to a whim did the hoisting of the rock to the surfuco. Today a powerful steam engine compresses the atmosphere which is conducted underground in Iron pipes. The compressed air is the motive power that works mechanical drills that pre pointed with black dia monds, and a hole Is drilled In a few hours that would have taken several days with the hand drills. Instead of black powder, the drill holes are charged with dynamite, so extremely sudden and terrific In Its action that no tamping In is needed to keep it from blowing out, the atmosphere being sufficient to cause it to do exe cution in tho hardest of rock. What was considered nearly a year's work 80 years ago Is now done In a month. There have been make upon the ' mine location nearly twenty miles of streets between the residences of the employes, but If the drifts and shafts that have been bored out of the solid rock were put in one continuous level it would be over 100 miles long. The amount of vein rock coming out to the surface is over 400 tons per day. For the accommodation of Its employes fl!8 dwelling houses were built, and lots lensed upon which the employes have built 182 houses. Of mine buildings, such as shaft, rock, engine, carpenter, blacksmith and machine shops, there are over fifty. Of steam engines there are nearly 100, ranging from 4700 horse-power to only a few horse-power. The completeness And original design of the mine machinery designed by the company's own consulting engineer Is the wonder and admiration of mechanical and mining engineers. Foreign governments have sent representatives to visit and study the plans and incthodjof opejatlng the largo copper mine. The total boiler capacity required Is 22,500 horse power. It consumes an enormous quantity of coal, and during the present strike of the coal miners the mine would have been obliged to close down but for the liberal policy under which the affairs of this com pany are managed. There was enough coal In Its enormous coal shed at Like Linden to last nearly six month, and it was also success ful In getting twenty or more cargoes aa soon as navigation opened. All departments of the mine are rlgit up to date, and all modern mining ap pliances that have proved practical are In use. The electric light and power houso are equipped with the best that electrical science has pro duced, so that the water In the deep est levels of tho mine Is nuw pumped upward by electrical pumps. Its machine shop is built of stone, the dimensions being 225x250 feet. Its equipment of tools Is superior to any establishment in the Northwest. There are forty steam engines doing service at tho mine alone and doten more at the stamp mills at Lako Linden. The mine has its rock carried to its stamp mills at Lake Linden, five miles away, by a railroad of Its own. The locomotives used are nearly 100 tons In weight and pull up the hill from Lake Lin den, where there Is a grade of TOO feet from mill to mine, over 130 empty rock cars. All employes are protected by an accident and sick fund, which pay them at the rate of f 25 per month when disabled, and 1500 to the heirs of these killed while In the discharge of duty. C0-OPEE1TITE 8HIPPI5G. In urging upon Its reader the Im portance of Organization to make a success of fruit ahlpptnf the North west Pacific Farmer says; "Grower seem to bold back, each afraid that if co-operation la formed tome one will make some money out of them. Of course some one will make some money. No reasonable man can expect other men. to .work and build up a business without some recompense. But nevertheless these organizations and co-operations must be consummated or the grower may as well go out of the boslneaa. la ft buatnea In which thousand are engaged and la which all pull against the other tnero i anaoiuieiy no money for any Of them and' the quicker they get out of it the better for them. To the grower with from one to five acres! do you expect buy en to come around to your place to buy fruit? If you wait for them to do o you have a long wait ahead of you. Do you expect to sell In the home or local market ? If such are your expectations remember that there are hundreds of other that are contemplating the same thing, and that probably a doten out of those hundred can fully supply the de mand. The Portland market for the fruits of the northwest Is now dead and will continue to remain dead, except when our shipping merchants have mado a clean up and shipped to eastern markets. The growers within a few mile can supply and overstock the actual needs of this city. Not a small fractional part of the great fruit crop now on hand or hereafter to come can be marketed here. It must be shipped and to be shipped means that heartv co-o no ration I demanded of every one if the most is to be realised No half-hearted work I admissible If success Is desired." THE HPIRr OP A MAX. A friend met Ex-Speaker Reed lust after the president's lecture to Wilson had been mad public, and askod. "What do you think of the political situation, Mr. Reed? What do you think Democratic Bona tors will do ? " 'Well," replied the Ex-Speaker, with that calm humor for which he Is distinguished, "If they have the spirit of men they'll refuse to emerge from under the bed." ''I don't see the point, Mr. Reed 'Evidently your education has been seriously neglected. Let me fill an abhorred vacumm. I was merely pointing a moral with a little story that waa not born yesterday,' and which should be familiar to broad and elevated minds. A modern Xantlppe having wreaked her sweet temper upon a guileless and unpro tected husband, supplemented the lash of her tongue with that of a cow hide. The dame had muscle and the husband sought refuge under the beJ. Come out from under that bed, wretch,' cried Xantlppe. 'Never, as long as I have the spirit of a man,' retorted that self-respecting hus band." According to the Eugene Guard, 'not ft single official about the Lane county courthouse smokes tobacco." This statement I evidently made to prove that Eugene is a temperate and orderly town. But I think that be hind the apparently harmless, though extraordinary statement, there lurks deep and dark rascality. Possibly these officials do not "smoke," that Is the word, but do they not chew ? Probably next week it will tell us that the officials do not drink. The unsuspecting would of course believe that whisky, was referred to, whereas the compositor had dropped the word "water." Under that miscon ception all the elderly riisiden France Wlllarda of Oregon would rush to this Mecca of cold water, for If politicians do not drink, who does? When It would be learned that the editor meant to say that "not a single official drank water," he would be hedged In front by antique maidenhood and by Irate politicians behind. What trouble and disaster could be wrought by a slip of the printer or of the pen. The next time Mr. Campbell describe the virtue of the courthouse officials, let him tell all the facta. He says that the officials do not '.smoke" tobacco wilfully misleading us to believe that they do not chew it, whereas had he meant It, ho wonld have writteu "use" tobacco. Tom A. Hawk. Aftet a career of three years the little monthly "Our Language" devoted to spelling reform, has been uicrged In "Spelling," the official organ of the Spelling Reform Association. Of course the retiring editor prints his valedictory in his re formed orthography, which Is but a moderate departure from the reg ular form. Among the altered words are altho, hav, enuf, Jurnal, dntl, harty, vitibl, utherwl.e and generus. Tke association claims that It 17 year of labor have not been loot by any means. They have worked wllh philologists, educators and other scientists, and believe that the scholarship of all English-speaking people I generally In favor of spelling reform. The point la to get started In a thoroughly practical way. Evidence is printed showing that Edgar A. Poe sold Ms poem, "The Bells," to three different publisher. No poet of the present era would do that, for it take about three year and 115 Irxstampa to find one publisher. Oil THAI TBOriCAl UlkT The average citizen who goe around these summer day In a neg ligee shirt, with a straw hat In one hand and a palm leaf fan in tne ncner, and ask every on be meet if it hot enough for him, would probably feel much cooler by comparison u be would look In for a moment at the labor of hundreds and thousands whose occupations compel them to work under conditions of extreme beat. These are the men who work In Iron foundries, In oil factories and in ras houses. A great deal depends upon the cir cumstance under which the work I carried on. The excessive heat can be borne for a time If there la a peri odical escape to the outer air for a breathing spall. Host of the foandartea and refiner ies are built la such a way that two or three aide are left open for tne circulation of air. If there la a breath of wind from any direction, things are not so bad, but when a day come aloncr without a breeze, the kind of day on which people and horse sick down in the afreet In the open air, than life la these Industrie I not worth living. The thousand of people In the city who work In laundries, and aa cooks In hotel and restaurants, get a little taste of hot work In their professions also, but prostration are not very numerous as a rule. In the sreat lunr refineries the nature of the work calls for an ex tremely high temperature. Great heat has to be generated to keep the sugar syrup boiling, and the men who keep up the fires feel the effects of It It Is bad enougt) at all times, but when the furnace doors are opened for shoving In "oal, a hot blast Issues forth directly in the fireman's face, which is enough to make his hair sizzle. A simoon from the desert Is mild In comparison. These men work twelve hours on stretch; that Is, they are on duty that length of time, but the actual work takes up only about ten minutes each half hour. The rest of the time they loll about the open door and win dow for a revivifying breath of air When there Isn't a breath of cool air to be had. and there len't on some days, the firemen are a pretty weary lot when they go off duty, and It is little wonder if some of them fall down and have to be carried home, Another hot place In a sugar refin ery Is the mixing room. This Is on a level with the wharf, and great vats are let down from the floor into which the bags and hogsheads of raw sugar are emptied to be melted Into syrup The thick mass In the vats bolls and seethes and the room is filled with steam. The room Is dark, the floor la sloppy, and a misstep would be fatal. The heat is very great, and the men are half naked as they swing the big hogsheads up to the vats and empty their contents. The drying room is a hot place, too, but fortunately not many men are needed there to keep things moving. This la where a good many of the reported prostrations occur, and the managers are very cautious about letting visitors Inspect the room. One of the most unpleasant Job In a refinery on a hot day I that of re plenishing the animal charcoal or boneblack, which is used In the filters for clarifying the liquid sugar. The quality of sugar depends entirely upon its whiteness, and these filters are constructed for the purpose of taking out the yellow color which Inheres In tile liquor, so that when It Is allowed to crystallze it shall be perfectly clear and transparent. The boneblack filters are Immense affairs, eight feet In diameter and tweuty-flve feet In length. They usually extend through two floors of the refinery building. After being used for a time the charcoal loses Its power of absorbing the yellow color ing, and this I shown by the produc tion of a lea white and hence Inferior quality of sugar. The boneblack must now be renewed. To do this a man ha to go down Into the filter and pack It with the charcoal to the amount of thirty or forty tons. He carries with him a small incandescent lamp attached to a flexible cord. A moistened sponge Is fastened over the tuoijth and the nostrils. The atmosphere la stifling and suf focating at best, but this work has to be done on the hottest as well as the coolest days, and it constitutes one of the most unpleasant parts of a sugar maker' business. In an Iron foundry the hottest as well as the most interesting process is that of drawing up the crucibles from the furnaces and of pouring their contents Into the mold. The crucibles stand about three feet high, and weigh, with their contents of liquid steel, about one hundred pounds each. The heat to which they are sub- Jscted Is something terrific. The fur- nace are let Into the earth from a little above the ground level, and ordinarily are tightly closed by lids. Every four hours the crucibles are taken out and the contents emptied. For doing this the lids of the furnace are removed and the men stand over the fiery orifice and almost astride it. They first soak themselvet liberally with water, rubbing it on their bare arm and chest and sopping their clothing with It. The legs are thickly padded, and thick sleeve are drawn over the arms. This I partly for pro tection from the heat ond partly to guard against sparks and splashing of the molten metal. Standing over the furnace, the workman reaches down with great long fitted to the tapering shape of the crucible. Clinching It qmcaiy he lift it from its bedofglowiog coal and move It to a convenient place. It doing this be awing It be tween his legs. The whole U at a whit heat, and occasionally a little of the liquid steel spurt out, and. falling upon the solid flooring, It make a shower of brilliant sparks beside which Paine' firework are pale In comparison. The whole operation la the work or a moment, but while the man atands over the furnace opening, tho heat that pour up I a terrible Intensity. When one crucible has been removed there are others to attend to, and for fifteen or twenty minute the men work rapidly. -The crucible all hav. Ing been placed m a row, the covers are remdyed from them and they are gripped again with the giant tongs and skillfully tipped up till the molten; steel is turned into the waiting molj. This 1 exceedingly hot work, and It occupies from thirty to forty-five min utes. Then, after fresh crucibles have been placed la the furnaces, the men tie about to rest and cool off for the next three hours. A good part of the time they sleep. When the four-hour period I over they are ready for fresh lot of crucible. They are big, powerful follows, and look as though the work agreed with them. The rolling process Is one In which great steel beams, In red-hot condition are run through a machine which re semble a great clothes-wringer. They are drawn back amd forth by the use of tongs. This make hot work, too. and it is more continuous than the periodical emptifying of the crucible. On the whole, however. It Is not r nearly as trying. In the gashouses, where lllumln atlng gas for house I manufactured, prostration from heat are not Infre quent. The process which entails greatest exposure to Intense heat is that of filling the retorts with coal and of emptying them of coke, after the gas ha been generated. The retorts are are arranged usually In three row, one above the other, The doors, when closed, hermetically eel them, and prevent combustion by shutting out the air. The retorts, which run back for a dlstanco of twenty feet, are surrounded wlthlu by a glowing lypat of two thousand five hundred degrees, which is the white heat point. When they are being filled with coal and are open to the air, the coal burns fiercely as It Is shoveled in by the workmen, and long arms of flame dart forth from the opening, For the work of Ailing them the men strip to the waist and sop their bodies and arms frequently In water. It takes three men to handle one of the shovels. These are narrow and about eight or or ten feet long, and are seml-cpllndrlcal In shape. There Is a long handle of bar loon in the hands of one of the men. The other two lift the loaded shovel be tween them on a bar of Iron and carry It quickly to the mouth of the retort. The third man shoves It clear in by means of the long handle, turns It over, and withdraws It quickly. The flame are leaping forth from the opening all the time, and celerity Is at a premium n getting the coal in and the shovel out again. When a retort Is filled the door Is closed upon the still burning oral, which goes out as soon as the oxygen within It is exhausted. Then the begins to be generated. After four hours the retort is opened and the coke raked out. The whole operation of emptlng and refilling the retorts lasts about half an hour, and then the men take a rest until the remainder of the four hours has panned. They are on duty ten or twelve hours In all. Another excessively hot place for men to work Is In the stokehole of one of the ocean steamers. Not only Is the heat extreme, but In many case the ventilation Is very defective. To begin with, the stokehole I 60 or more feet below the main deck, and the way down Is lined with bolters, steam pipes and other hot things, as the Investigator Is likely to learn to his discomfort when reach ing around for a good hold to ateady himself by as he descends the narrow and greasy ladder which leads down fo the infernal regions. The rungs of the Iron ladder Itself are about as hot as the average uninitiated explorer cares to lay hold of. Outside of some mines there is probably no hotter place to work In man a stokehole, because It Is so much cut off from the outside air, being far below the water line. No record Is taken of the degree of heat reached, but It must be as high aa 150 degrees at times. The engine room itself Is frequently as hot as 120 or 125 degrees, and that Is considered a cool place by the atoker. In his eyes, the engine room would be a comfortable place to sit and read the paper after getting out of the really hot stakehole. The lack of ventilation ami the presence of fine coal and atmosphere a there Is tend to aggravate the heat greatly. Every ten minute the fires require stoking, and when the doors are opened the heat Is still more Increased. "How hot does it get down there?" one of the more Intelligent stokers was asked. "O, It gets pretty hot sometimes," he replied. "I am convinced of that, but how high does the thermometer go?" "We never try a thermometer on It. Weooly know that sometime it Is hot, and at other lime It 1 very bot We have to work there for four hours at a time," be went on, "but then w get eight hour off.

Portland Telegram. The republican party ha never advocated n tari;f on any articlo that could bo raiiod In tho country, and not nearly enough suiir is manufactured in the Country for local consumption. For thN reason the McKinley bill pro vided a bounty on the growth of of beets and their manufacture Into sugar, thus attempting to build up an Industry without impoIng a tux on the consumer. The tmsls prin ciple of protection Is the develop ment of the resources of a country by building up local industries; but In every instance where this cannot b done It doe not believe in Im posing a tax for the benefit of a few, and which would operate as a bur den upon the many. -Times-Mountaineer. Mania's rwtg Fleets. According to the latest official statement, the, Russian volunteer fleet In the Black Sea consists of nine large Ironclads of from 5000 to 9500 tous, and from 1650 to 10,000 horse power. The "Kotnlsche" hear that the Russian government is actively furthering the scheme for a large naval dockyard at Sebustopol, and for making that port a naval station, the growth of the Black Boa fleet having been so rapid during the last few years that the docks of Nikolaleff are no longer adequate. The new dockyards at Sebastopol are so far advanced that the naval depart ment proposes to lay down two Iron clads and three cruisers there during the next few months. These vessels are intended for the Black Sea fleet, and after Its reorganization the gov ernor of Sebastopol Is to be Intrusted with the command In chief of the coast defences. The present gover nor is a military officer of high rank, but the post will In future be given to a naval officer with the title of commander-in-chief of the Black Sea fleet.

Manderson, of Ne- bntkka, hi a spesch In the United States senate, June 1, 194, says, re garding the cultivation of sugar beets: Many acres produce 20 tons to the acre, but on the basis of 16 tons to the acre, at 15 per ton there Is a gross re ceipt of $75, and deducting the cost of the crop, It leaves a net profit of $"l to the acre. Is it auy wouder. Mr. President, that the farmers ol the Went want a continuance of this bounty, for the bounty Koei to then iy maintaining the price they get for that which they produce tui muel us it goes to the sugar factory. They Hre enthusiastic over tho prosect ol this Industry. It is the one grea boon which they urk from the con Cress of the United States, that there shall be wived to thiiu thU new and inijjiii laid rodiiclloii. What cK' thus it nuan to tin- liii iiii r?

You can not carry leets very far to find a market. If the farmer has to haul by wagon his hsul must be but a few miles. If the railroads are to trans port, the beet cnunot with profit be trnnsjMjrted a great many miles. Therefore It is that as we advance if we are preinitted to advance to the full consumatlon of our hopes with reference to this production, that all over the land where beet sugar can be produced there will be the local beet-sugar factory. Every acre planted In beets means twenty days' labor for one man. How Important Is this consideration. If 2,000,000 acres of land are needed to supply this country with the sugar it consumes, It means, If we can fos ter and bring this Industry to Its full capability, that we will give forty million days' labor to the laborers of this country. Now, what else, Mr. President? Is It only for the benefit of the farmer that wo plead for this industry? It means increased labor In the shops that make the machinery, the Wond erful machinery which converts the beet Into the sugar and extracts the saccharine from the cane. Mr. Presi dent, I will not sa the threat, but he fear that this Indnstry might not be protected, has had most severe re sults through out the country. I know that in my own state that, could there have been had an assur ance since 1892 that proper protection would be given to the Industry, there would have born beet-sugar factories In operation near Omaha, Lincoln, and up the Republican valley near Colorado.
