the agitation is caused by the few ringleaders who are supported by the dues he laborers pay into the union and who really have no concern what ever except that they will not receive their v living off the labors of others To snow that there is neither justice nor Duality in the principle on which this wood River union is conducted it is only necessary to quote the fact that SEW is striking for 4 a day whether he be an experienced miner or one still who shovels en the dump whereas fffLad brains were worth anything there must be distinctions and grades of PlIive I wages according to the men

miners when they are through work can so at once to eat sleep or read as they choose At the Ontario the men take newspapers and periodicals and are a much more orderly set than those that work at properties wnere no such provisions are made for them I firmly believe that the miners would accept such an arrangement arrange-ment which ought to be the rule in all large companies The morale of the men is better they are reliable and contented con-tented and you can get a good deal more work out of them Hanaucr Smelter Mr Hanauer states that some delay has occurred in the arrival of the last car load of machinery but that he expects ex-pects to fire up some time about the 10th or the 15th The Daly From Mr Chambers we learn that the prospecting work continues and everything still looks favorable Sampson It is expected that the tunnel work on which has been kept up so long and at such great expense will tap the lower workings t some time in April Fifteen men are still employed and about 1500 in ore is taken out each month There has been a tremendous amount of money sunk in this property prop-erty but the showing in the bottom of the mine is such as to warrant the owners own-ers in persevering Horn Silver Three stacks are still run at the smelter smel-ter and 130 cars of bullion are piled up in the yard The value of this accumulation accu-mulation is 325000 Iolnt Lookout This mine owned by M H Lipman and worked for some time past under H D Rippeto was closed down yesterday yester-day pending the settlement of the Wood River strike Two men will continue to do work about the mine The Qulgff This property in which several Salt Lakers are so materially interested is still being worked but from all accounts itis somewhat under a cloud at the present time No recent shipment has beenmadeand an assessment has just been or is about to be levied The Crescent The stock is held anywhere from 85 cents to 100 according to the amount offered There is nothing in the report of a sale in Paris The Queen fro Conklin said yesterday that he felt confident the Union would weaken from now on and it was only a matter of a very short time when everything about the Oueen would bo in full blast again It is a cheerful fact to contemplate con-template at any rate that no action of i I the strikers can affect the fine body of ore in the mine I Ontario The last quotation known is 17 Mr Chambers who has lust returned from the Park states that in shaft No 3 the sixth level and drain tunnel was in over 2200 feet west and that the work was still being pushed by three eighth hour I
