The utter usel essness and cost Of strikes
is shown by the Boston "Globe," which
ha. been investigating the cost to the
country Of the strike at Fall River. and ar
rives at the rather startling conclusion
that the loss is not less than 81 ,000, GOO a
week. The strikers, it il estimated. are
short something like $780, 900 a week in
wages. the mills lose in profits fully $780,
900 a week. the injury to the machinery
together with the interest, insurance n
taxes, is put at Sl00, 900 more and the adj
vance in cotton cloth saddles fully $780,
600 on the country. Here is half a million
accounted for. A like sum is Jumped from
loss to the cotton market, the failures
which must follow this trouble, the loss to
taxpayers in supporting paupers. the loss
to dealers in not being able to supply their
orders for goods and. lastly, the loss to the
transportation companies.

A Miner Suggests How They Can
BE Avoided.

The recent FIRE in the Imperial mine at
Virginia City, has led to a discussion as 10
how such casualties can be avoided in the
future. A miner writing to the Enter
prise" upon the subject. gives some prac-
tical ideas worthy Of reproduction. He
says: My plan is to place in drift. that
connect with other mines two air-tight
doors-say from three to five feet apart
to be made Of boiler iron. bolted upon two
or three-inch plank, and set in r~ock-work.
On the jambs of each door should be q
piece of rubber one inch thick, when by
having two bolts on each door they could
be closed in such a way as to render them
air tight. Had such doors been in the
drifts connecting the Bullion and Imperial
all the men in the Bullion could have been
got out Of the incline. But you must rave
men stationed ut these doors, so that they
may be closed at any moment Every man
knows that the Belcher, Crown Point and
Yellow Jacket mines contain perfect maya
zines Of timbers tina. are liable to take fire
at any time, aud II there were two or three
hundred men working in the Imperial and
Bullion mines all below certain drifts
would be lost and the chances are that even
their bodies would never lie recovered.

The Tuscarora Times Review" hits the
nail squarely when it says that it is a
common mistake with prospectors in new
mining camps to overestimate their pros
poets. aud demand prices for them which
developed mines would hardly bring. By
81 doing they drive away capital. for q
time at least. and If the camp is really .
good one, years must elapse before the
majority Of those who prospect are able to
sell their claims on merit. This has been
the history Of nearly every camp in the
State, and many others are now under
going the same experience. Claims in
Bonanza City. upon which but little work
has been done, are held at prices which
would be considered dear for a bullion
producing mine. The consequences Of
such short-sightedness are apparent al
ready. A few really good prospects will
be sold, while for a long time the majority
Of prospects will remain only prospects.
II miners would be satisfied with q reason
able price for their locations and the labor
which they have performed upon them,
new camps wonld be op. ned up in one
half the time that now seems TO be re-
quired.

The " Post" wakes surly over the fact
that the trade Of Elko goes elsewhere.
What it says Of Elko is applicable to about
every town in the State, if the reports Of
local papers can be relied upon. 1t says
that with its surroundings, Eiko should be
one Of the best business places in Nevada.
The valleys along the Ruby Range can
supply enough trade to support two such
towns, but for SOM reason their trade
goes to Ogden and Sacramento. A liberal
policy surely should keep the trade here.
but closed stores and idle clerks of Elko
furnish a poor commentary on our enter
prise.

Death Of am old.Ti,mcr.

William A. Edwards, well known to old
denizens Of White Pine and Eureka, died
at the County Hospital yesterday. He was
one OF the best civil engineers on the
coast, and will be- remembered by firemen
as the first Secretary Of the Hooks and
Knicks. Like Dalton, who died under
similar circumstances last week, he once
had a brilliant future before him, and like
Dalton he proved his own worst enemy.
and to-day will be followed to the grave by
the friends who did not forget his good
qualities in The hour OF adversity.
