occurred when they could strike terror into the
hearts OF the Gentiles, without, as they supposed

THE MINING INTERESTS
The discoveries OF new lOdeS are Of such common
occurrence that special notices would sound like
purpose. 1t may be SAID with confidence that there
has been no disappointment from the beginning.
We know nothing yet OF reaction but we are threat
ened with something nearly as bad. The Union
Pacific Company has been playing the dog III the
manger, anu the exp0rtatiOn OF ores Is at stand
still. The officers OF that company supposed to
know their own interests, ad doubtless, they think
they pursuing the best course to insure it; but
II does not seem 80 to us here Since the new
election OF controlling officers they have raised
the tariff OF treights, so that nothing but the very
highest grade Of ores can be proLably shipped over
that line. The result IS there ore hundreds OF thou
sands CT tons Of silver ore lying at the 'dumps"
OF the mines, and the poor men are wOrsted.
The Union Pacific Railroad Company may hold out
long enough to force the acceptance OF their rates OF
freight, or they may, II the ore can possibly carry
that amount OF charge, force the abandonment OF
the mines altogether. They injure the growth and
great deal OF travel, and thus finally ruin their
enterprise In some respects the Territory will lie
the gamer, for smelling and refining works will un-
doubtedly be erected, so that bullion only win be
exported. 1t Ia to be hoped that they will come to
| second sober thought.
