ATTEMPTED REDUCTION OF WAGES
We are informed by Geo. C. Johnston,
who returned the other day from Frisco,
Utah, that the Superintendent of the
Horn Silver mine notified the miners that |
the wages of the underground men were
to be cut down from 50. so to 50 per day,
and the top hands from So to $3.50. The
miners notified the furnace hands of this
change, and they agreed to stand in with
them, and the Superintendent was then
informed that the men would quit work
rather than submit to a reduction of
wages. The Superintendent asked for
three hours in which to run the furnaces
down, but the men granted him six, and
before the time for quitting had arrived,
he informed the men that they might 60
work at the old prices That the order
for the reduction Of wages came from the
headquarters in the East.
