Wo havo a delightful climate, beautiful beau-tiful scenery, good roads, tho best side walk system in the state, fine soil, profitable farms, good ranges, wonderful mining possibilities, good school Bystem fewer merchants, more garages, moro money spent with mall order or-der houses, good bankB, poor meeting houses and a contented content-ed people." Tho time is here to call u :hajt,0h continually increasing wages to meet "increased"" cost of living for cost of living will never stop increasing as long as wages increase. Abnormal Iwages and prices of commodities commodi-ties aro against public welfare and stability of government. We must get onto the "honcBt days work" basis ,or this nation will reap a sad reward. Facts might as well be faced now, there has got to he moro work and less loafing. i Senator King of Utah says he has had enough of this government govern-ment control of everything and advocates getting back to the good old ways of allowing supply sup-ply and demand to regulate price. THE LIMIT REACHED Tho labor situation at Tono-pah Tono-pah remains unchanged except that with each hour it becoines moro serious. Quito and order prevail, according to reports from tho camp; nevertheless, both men and operators are more determined in their attitude. atti-tude. Later reports state that there Is danger of the strike spreading to Goldfierd. George Wlnfield, one of tho largest Nevada operators, has issued tho following' ultlmation: "There will be no compromise. Tho men employed on the Divide the men employed on the Divide properties are receiving $5 a day, with room and board at $40 a month. If thev can better bet-ter themselves elsewhere they are welcome to go. I will close down the properties I control before L Will grant any higher wngo demands." When the move is on to curb increasing cost of living it is folly to contnuo to increase wages beyond an already high point and a showdown might aB well take place now as any time. |
