His ideals have been carried on by those of his family who survive him. and this latest donation is in keeping with' such tradition. The senate amended and passed Representatve Eynons bill providing for the licensing of wineries and distilleries in the state and providing that these shall use Utah products in the fermentation of wines and distillation of liquor. The house concurred in the senate amendments to provide for supervision of these plants by the liquor control commission and the bill is now en route to the governor. This bill, as explained by Mr is not designed to increase drinking In Utah' but to launch a new Industry here. He pointed out that there are thousands of acres of land in southern Utah, particularly in Dixie, where the finest grapes In the country can be raised, and it was the purpose of this bill to encourage the development of the vineyard industry. He also pointed out that barley and rye 'could be raised on thousands of more- - acres and the distilleries would stimulate this new Industry for the farmers of the state. Representative Walter K.

Certain naturaT advantages make Utah an ideal copper smelt-incenter which attracts ores from a wide area and cieates a market, not only for prodiueis of copper, but for miners of gold and silver ores.

When the converter has sufficient matte for a charge it Is rolled back until a set of tuyeres (air vents) is beneath the molten metal. Air is then blown Into this and siliceous ore added from the bins above. As the air Is blown through the charge some of the sulphur is driven off as a gas, the iron is changed into iron oxide and forms a slag with the silica in the siliceous ore. As the process continues, all the iron is thus slagged, but the copper, which is in the form of copper sulphide, is not affected. When all the iron has been slagged off the air begins to work on the remaining copper sulphide. The ulphurthen hurnsr-to-sulph- i- - oxide gas. passing up the flue. At the end of this operation the matte, converted into blister copper, remains in the converters. This is poured off and transferred to the casting furnace to await pouring into slabs or bars. The waste gases from the roast- ers. reverberatories and converters carry much fine dust and fumes. These gases, before being released are through the smokestacks cleaned in Cotrell plants. High tension electric currents precipitate the dust on steel plates from which it is periodically shaken into hoppers beneath. During 1935, 762.587,310 pounds of copper was produced in the United States. Salt Lake Valley copper smelters produced 155.400,-00- 0 pounds, or 20 4 percent of the total Production from mines in Utah amounted to 120,972,668 pounds. The difference, some pounds, represents copper in ores originating in nearby states that was shipped to Utah for treatment. In treating copper ores and concentrates, other types, such as siliceous and sulphide ores, are necessary to make a suitable furnace charge. In .this way the copper smelters have been able to offer a market to the producers of these gold and silver ores. Because of this the mining territory tributary to Salt Iike valley has been constanlv expanding until 30 percent of the ore, smelted originates In other slates'! The economic ad- -vantage to the people of Utah is obvious. Th" copper smelting Industry shuuld be a substantial asset of this state for a long time to come. Whether or not this will be tbe case depends on the efforts exerted, not only by the industry, but by the people ofjhe state to overcome adverse conditions which will crop up from time to time in the future.

The generous gift to the state of an executive mansion by the the late Senator Thomas Kearns, who was one of the leaders, In the development of the mining Industry In the state, came as a complete surprise to senators and representatives. Without preliminary Inkling as to what was In the of the senate air, the president presented a bill to that body at the close of the week authorizing the state to accept the Kearns mansion at 603 South Temple street In Salt Lake city as an unconditioned gift to the state for future use as the official home of the chief executive. Senator Hugina of Weber promptly moved that all rules be suspended and the bill be placed, on final consideration. By unanimoys vote the senate acepted the gracious offer and sent the bill forthwith to the house. There the measure came as so much of a surprise that some of the representatives were inclined to "doubt their ears and were to oppose Immediate action However, under the leadership of Representative Marthakls of Salt Lake, it was made clear to the house that the gift was without condition of any sort and came solely from the generosity of Mrs. Kearns and her desire to do a magnanimous thing for her adopted state in memory of her husband who had been such a prominent leader in the development of the states greatest ; industries mining. Representative Selvln of Tooele pointed out that the governor gives his services for a very l(5w salary and he thought the state could well afford to maintain an official residence for him. He also referred to another bill that had been introduced In the house that day raising the salary of the governor to $10,000 a year and added that Governor Blood In his modesty, had declined to let the bill be presented until it had been drafted to provide that the Increase, If voted, should not take effect until his present term of office had expired.
