N Mining Men Gather at Reno and Organize to Promote Silver Mining Industry. W. Mont Ferry, former mayor of Salt Lake City, has been honored with the chairmanship of the Silver- conference held in Reno. The delegates made no mistake when they selected Mr. Ferry for chairman. He is well versed in every phase of the mining industry and is a general booster, as well as a competent business man, and he is also managing director of the Silver King Coalition Mining company of Park City, one of the largest silver producing properties of the country. The Conference adopted the following resolutions: n 1. Unanimous adoption of a providing for the organization of a silver export association under the act, and such amendments to such act as may be had. 2. Resolution of the present convention into a permanent organization to meet again within sixty days, the date, time and place of assembly to be set by Chairman W.

A mineralized fissure is being followed in the New Quincy mine, which gives indications of breaking into a body of ore in the near future. Charles Moore of Park City appears to have struck it lucky in the Haroua Hala gold mine of Arizona, upon which he has secured a lease and bond. This is a gold property where aobut eight million dollars were taken out of 300 feet when the ore was apparently lost. Moore claims that he has found the old vein. . reso-lurio- Webb-Pomeren- e pre-wa- er BINGHAM MINING EXCURSION. A week from tomorrow, September 16, business men, mining men and their friends will go to Bingham on a mining excursion. All mining men of the state, as well as visitors, are invited to attend the celebration at Bingham, one of Utahs oldest mining camps. A committee consisting of Dr. F. E. Straup, mayor of Bingham; J. B. mayor of Bingham; J. B. Meyers, president of the Kiwanis club; L. "J. Tietjen and Boyd Baynard conferred with the Salt Lake commitee at its regular meeting Saturday and later consulted with Harry S. Joseph, chairman, and Joseph Wirthlin, in charge of the transportation, regarding the tentative program. This is the first excursion of mining men to Bingham to be held from Salt Lake City. The mines of Bingham have produced more than a half billion dollars to this date, and it is understood that they have at present blocked out more than a billion and a half more. According to Dr. Straup, the excursion will be a big boost for Bingham, and will also be very good advertising for Utah and Salt Lake City. Dr. Straup promises a good time for ready to entertain the visitors. all who go to Bingham, which will be Mey-Strau- p, to fix school taxation. The people have nothing to say about the matter at all. The county commission fixed a rate thought justifiable, but the court overruled the commissioners. Now do you .wonder why our school taxes are so high? The school board .can do as it pleases, and it does as it pleases. The trend of our school system today is for pleasure and not study. Each school must have its playgrounds and gymnasium and paraphernalia, which, of course, is a thing most desirable, but only the rich can stand that. Last year the farmers in and around Coalville held several meetings protesting the excessive school tax, but they got no results. As am atter of fact the expense was put over on the people through an innocent appearing amendment and school boards have been running high ever since. It costs ontre to go to a public school today than it did in former days to go to a up-to-da- tution. It appears that education goes along with other products, such as silver, wheat and fruits. The market is up PARK CITY MINES. Henry Welsh and T. L. Walden inspected the Glenallen mine and reported pleasing conditions and bright prospects for big developments, according to the Park Record. With sufficient capital this property will become one of the big producers of the camp. The Glenallen mill will start in the near future.

Demand for mining stocks on the Salt Lake Mining Exchange became more active during the week, indicais and there every tion that the Exchange will be booming during the winter months. Eig blocks of Emma Silver have been traded in and for a time the stocks weak-j ened some on account of the large number of shares put on the board. The Keystone and Tintic Standard improved with a fair demand for the certificates. The price of wools is holding strong throughout the world, and wool growers of this section of the country look for another prosperous season the coming spring when the new clip comes in. The livestock market is normal with a steady demand and fixed prices remaining about the same. Farmers believe that they will get better wheat prices the coming year.

Gasoline prices in California, Oregon, Washington, Nevada, Arizona, Alaska and Hawaii have been reduced two cents a agllon by the Standard Oil company. The question is being asked in Utah, why not change the names of the oil companies here and get a reduction also. If gasoline can be reduced in Alaska what have we to say in Utah at whose back door Wyoming thousands of barrels of oil flow dally into the market. The only answer is that Utah people will pay more for everything than other people. That may be one of the reasons why so many are getting out. te private school. That is not all. Entrance fees at the University are so high that children of the poor cannot pay them and as a consequence they are practically barred from this alleged public insti- amended. Chairman Ferry appointed a committee of three, consisting of Alfred Harrell of California, as chairman; W. I. Snyder of Salt Lake City, and Henry M. Reeves of Reno, Nevada, to draft plans for the organization and financing of the conference. This silver conference is the beginning of a world organization to place silver upon a paying basis and to advance its use as a medium of exchange in all countries. on and those who partake must pay the price. The court is compelled to decide the case according to the law, and this law appears to be out of reach of the people who have no say as to how their tax money shall be used.
