Copper mining is probably the most
profitable enterprise of the day and
it is more stable than auy other class of
mining Given a property where ore
exists in sufficient abundance it can be
made1 to pay well The uncertainties
of gold mining are not present in the
mining of copper The outlook at pres
ent for profitable copper mining was
never as bright as it is to day An un
usual opportunity is afforded of becom
ing interested in an enterprse of that
characcter is presented by El Progreso
Copper Mining Co The Compauys
advertisement in this issue concisely
states the case As the property has been
worked for generations there can be
no speculation about it and it seems to
be a project where only eajhtai is need
ed to very rjrofitablydevelop its great
resources

Our Priceless Principles Do
Not Always Go With
the Flag
In bis address before the Howe Mar
ket club at Boston on Feb 1G 1899
President McKinley said
Oar priceless principles undergo
no change under a tropical snu
They go Tfith the Has They are
wrought In every one of its sacreel
folds and are as inextinguishable
as are its shining stars
That tvas only a year and a half
ago and now when the Democracy
proposes to send our priceless princi
ples along with our flag It is accused
of treasonable encouragement to the
enemy
Some of our shining principles are
embodied in the Declaration of Inde
pendence But the Republican party
holds that the Declaration of Inde
pendence is out of date Some of
them are contained in the constitution
But the Republican party maintains
that the constitution does not follow
the flag
President McKinleys recently pub
lished instructions to the1 Philippine
commission show that Judge Taft and
his colleagues were directed to assume
on the 1st of September the legislative
powers f the military governor leav
ing him still in full possession of the
executive -power We have had then
First A military governor possess
ing absolute legislative and executive
powers
Second A division of those powers
between the governor and five appoint
ed officials
Third All this by the fiat of a sin
gle man the president who has creat
ed this whole system of irresponsible
government on his own unfettered au
thority
It is this that Secretary Long had in
mind when he said at that same meet
ing of the Home Market club
It is certain cause for congratula
tion that the extreme imperialists
who resisted the treaty have been
signally overthrown By resisting
its ratification they have been in
sisting upon the extremest imperi
alism and have out Heroded Her
od They not only vrould have pro
longed the vrar vrith Spain but
would not hnve taken out of the
hands of one man the president
absolute authority over the Philip
pines limited only to the indefinite
scope of what is called the war pow
er wielded by a purely military arm
hplding a naked sword Think of
that for imperialism It Is a great
credit to the president that like Ju
lius Crosar and George Washing
ton he has refused this offer of a
kingly crown On the contrary the
good old Democratic plan has been
adopted of putting the disposition of
these Islands into the hands of the
American people who will duly ex
press their -will through their rep
seniatives In congress assembled
The president put on that crown aft
er all
S Onco admit that some people are capable
O of self gqAemment and that others are not q
3 and that the capable people have a right to
O seize upon and govern the incapable and O
S you make force brute force the only
9 dation of government and invite the reign 9

New Men In the Supreme Court
As for the reorganization of the
supreme court the only way to reor
ganize is to appoint new men to va
cancies as the present judges retire or
die off If two judges should die next
week the president would reorgan
ize it to that extent and you may be
sure that he would select only such
men as he knew in advance would sus
tain his administrations interpretation
of the constitution under the imperial
istic policy Why then the dreadful
charge that Bryan would assault the
supreme court by placing in it judges
in favor of a national income tax
Would McKinley assault it by nam
ing such men as Griggs Springfield
Mass Republican
Whenever nny Republican holds
up before you the full dinner pail
argument nsk him what he thinks
of the anthracite coal region Ask
him what he thinks of less than 1
a day which is received by the men
who are mining anthracite coal
less than 1 a day the year around
Under these circumstances what is
there for the laboring man to im
prove his condition W J Bryan
Proceedings of the Anti trust Con
ference
The proceedings of the national anti
trust conference in Chicago Feb 12
1900 have been published by George
S Bowen Co Unity building Chi
cago in a handsome volume contain
ing numerous half tone portraits of the
principal speakers and the chief ad
dresses in full It is a book full of
points for all wtio are interested in the
anti trust cause
Tbe American workingmnn has a
head as well as a stomach Give
him a fair chance to use the first
and he will hnve no trouble to take
i care of the latter
Prosperity Vindicated
About 142000 jobs are looking for
men in the anthracite coal reffjonfi
Men willing to take the place of an
thracite coal miners who struck against
starvation wages will find plenty of
work in Pennsylvania and Ohio This
is another vindication of the Republic
an claim of plenty of work for men
who want to work under the McKin
ley administration
Republican Prosperity
The Republican trusts and free immi
gration are making tramps of hundreds
of thousands of Americans wjio with
a fair chance fn life would be first
