DEATH AND FUNERAL OF JOSEPH SHHIYEL WRIGHT With sincere regret 've re-cord the death of Joseph Shir-ley Wright, the sixteen-year-ol- d 3on of Bishop and Mrs. J. A. Wright ; He died at the Bing-ham hospital on Sunday after-noon, r He was a student of the Bingham High School and while participating in a basket ball game, he fell and blistered his arm which later developed into blood poisoning. After being operated on, ' he was taken more seriously ill with an acute attack of pneumonia which caus-ed his death. Funeral serv-ices were held at the L. D. S. Church at American Fork oix Wednesday afternoon, a large number of friends attending from Bingham. Appropriate vocal solos were capably rend-ered by Miss Annie Masters and Mrs. J. Siddoway. The L. D. S. choir of American Fork also :ook part in the services. Presi-dent Rasmussen, W. Chipman, George Nix and several others eulogized the deceased. The floral offerings were varied and beautiful. The deceased is sur-vived by his parents, Bishop and Mrs. J. A. Wright and two brothers, Stephen and Glenn. The pallbearers were Clifton Butterfield, Uoriu3 Adams, Earl Rawlings, Adolph Chiara, Wil-ia- m Greathouse, and Leonard Miller. FEW IDLE ill mIII BINGHAM : The mines of Bingham are , producing, a heavier tonnage, ' weekly, although this week on account of the Christmas holi- -, days, the tonnage considerably , decreased. Most of the mining companies .are needing capable machine men, although there seems to be ah unwillingness on the part of the men to act 'as1' machinemen, preferring muck--' -- ing, despite an additional wage. , One reason for the shortage, in this department of mine work . is the restriction on immigra-tion. Before the war, the rate Df immigration was . a million 1 : ' ' persons per annum, in 1913 it .vas 1.197,892 and in 1914, it' was 1,218,480. During. the war' Jie average inflow of population " was 300,000, but the outflow wa3 150,000. In 1913 and 1914; --he outflow was . 808,190 and 303,338,.. respectively. 'Last ear we received 355,000 immi-- . jrants only, because the John- - ' ' 3on law restricts the proportion from any one country to 3 per, . :ent of the population of any foreign nationality in ti3 coun- -' try. Moreover, there has been a marked change in the tide )f migration. Fifty years ago Am-- .. erican mininar wm benefitted hv t receiving the aid of the Cornish, hereditary miners, who settled' in several mining , districts in . such numbers as to give them a distinct character, for example, , Grass Valley in California, Gil-pin county in Colorado and Houghton in Michigan. Many Irish also joined the miners' ranks at about this time and in the dccadC'fotlpwlnr-ThwrO'- ' years later, came an influx of ; , Scandinavians, not so skillful as ! miners but sturdy workers and 4 quick earners of the art of breaking rock underground; the Finns, notably, became promin- - ent in the Lake Superior mines and in the Rocky mountain re-gion. In later years southern Europe has given us the chief - supplies of immigrant labor, notably Italy,from which we have drawn large numbers of ? the Piedmontese, a people ex- - perienced in mining and excel-lent hammer men. Last year 3000 more Italians ; ' leff this country than came to . it, one reason for their depart-- ure, it is said, being the prohibi-tion against the making of wine. Just before the war and since, ; the sources of immigration have . been the eastern lands of the Mediterranean, from which " large numbers of Serbians and Montenegrins have come' to the mines of the United States. It '. is a fact that the native born American does not take to minti-ng underground j he prefers to work in the mill or machine shop. The English speaking workmen form a decreasing pro-portion, of miners, their places n being taken by Mexicans, Span-iards and Czecho-Slovak- s. These are clannish, as the English T ; speaking miners used to be in the days of . their dominance, and when they are in a majority they drive away those who are ! "foreigners" to them. The shortage of drill men, particularly of the better type of English speaking miners, is a serious matter. One reason ' as stated already is the difficul-ty under union regulations of , teaching young men the techni-que of drilling and blasting rock ( underground. Some means must be derived for doing so. Highland Doy llotes W. E. Steffen, popular leaser and prospector, spent Thursday in Bingham on business. ? Mr. and Mrs. N. Birk spent their Christmas with, relatives and friends at American Fork. R. M." Hamilton, superintend-ent of the Utah Boston Mining Co., left this week for a, busi-ness trip to Boston. " Jack Jones of the New Eng-land mine, is spending his Christmas vacation with " his family at Salt Lake City. Mr. and Mrs. E. Bryant 6f the Utah Metal Mining Co., spent Christmas with relatives at Salt Lake City. Sam Light, the Utah Copper Co.'s deputy sheriff, returned to the Highland Boy on Wednesday after spending Christmas with his folks at Salt Lake City. ' Miss Ellen Light, who has been visiting her sister, Mrs. M. Steifen at the Highland Boy, returned to her home at McGill, Nevada, the past week. O. Gressman has been called to Salt Lake City on account of the illness of his daughter who is suffering from a severe at-tack of pneumonia. Mr. and Mrs. Richard Hock-ing entertained the bachelors of the camp at their home at the Highland Boy on Christmas day. The kindly actions of the enter-tainers were much appreciated by the boys who had not the op-portunity to partake of a real honest-to-goodne- ss dinner, but for Mr. and Mrs. Hocking's kindly action. -- : : BINGHAM HIED HAS ;. . A POPULAR Mil i ' " ! ; ,., ' ." t i Last week the Bingram High : . JSchool basketballers were suc--, cessfui in winning two games - away from home. They played Spanish Fork High School on the 22nd and Wasatch High of Heber on the 23rd. Both of the ' ame9 were roughly played. At Spanish Fork; the boys-ha- to , , change at the High school and then travel three blocks to the , hall in which the game was to : be played., In the first minute , of the game Gawthwaite tipped ; . the ball through the hoop and Stillman soon caged another. The Miners took the lead from the start, and were never head-ed. All eight players were used in the game and although they! overwhelmed the Fork team, r " ' they gained some valuable ex- -' perience. The floor was excep-tionally slippery and as a re- -, suit the game was rather slow. ; There was some good passing at I times and atthe end of the half i! - the Bingham, boys were a good Vv " V distance in the lead. Many sub--V stitutions were made, but this did not stop the boys from scor- - ing and as a result the game ended with a score of 41-1- 2. for the Bingham boys. The game at Heber was at-- ', tended by a large and enthusi-nsti-c crowd. The miners took the lead at the start and were followed closely by the Heber boys. Both teams fought hard i in the last half and the game became quite spirited when the Heber boys started a rally, but this was soon ended when Siddo-way shot a long basket from the ; middle of the floor. The game ended .with a score of.36-21f- or 1 the boys of the mining camp. Murdoch was the referee at Heber and Dumbell at Spanish Fork. The Bingham boys who made the trip were Walter Rim- - by, B. Thomas, A. Chiara, W.I Greathouse, L. Marriottl L. Still-ma- n, J. Siddoway and M. Gayth-- . waite.

Last January he left the United States to take charge of a big mining property in South Amer-ica, ill health causing him to re-turn to Phoenix, Arizona where he died on December 23rd, of Bright's disease, He is survived by two daughters and three brothers who reside in South Dakota. The body is at the ell and Co.'s funeral chapel, pending the arrival of his brother Herbert from . South Dakota. Mrs. Elaine Knowley Atcheson, his wife, died in 1919 and was buried at the Mt. Olivet ceme-tery, Salt Lake City, where he also will be buried. f IMPROVED PRICE OF COPPER WILL MEAN " w "'MUCH TO BINGHAM1 The improvement in the cop-per market will most likely mean more extensive operations on the part of the Utah Copper company. This company is now operating at about 50 per cent capacity. The local offices of the company indicate that the increase production will have to be gradual but it is ex-pected that new units in the concentrating plants will be opened up the early part of next year. The cost of production, according to the last statement of the company, was 8 1-- 2 cents a pound, which will give a' good profit on copper at the present market The local metal market, how-ever, means more to the smaller producers than the Utah Cop-per company. The Ohio Copper company, under a new leaching process, is producing copper at 8 cents a pound, according to the management, which will make operations at this prop-erty very profitable.
