THE SAN JUAN PLAoERs.

Miners and Newspaper Correspondents
Going Down to Investigate.
The excitement regarding the new gold
fields in southern Utah near the junction
of the San Juan and Colorado rivers is be-
coming very intense. Eastern people are
apparently taking more interest in the
new discoveries than the people of Utah
themselves, and it seems strange that the
practical men q wv out of employment at
Park City, Bingham, Eureka and the
Tintic district generally do not take adj
vantage of the opportunity offered.
MIR. Bennett, general passenger agent
OF the Rio Grande Western, yesterday re-
ceived advices that the correspondents of
the New York Sun and Associated Press,
and correspondents of San Francisco and
Chicago papers, together with party of

WAGE CUTTING UNNECESSARY.
Superintendent Kearns Gives His Views
on the Situation.

Superintendent Kearns Gives His Views
on the Situation.
Thomas Kearns, the superintendent OF
the Silver King group, at Park City, is a
practical mining man and worthy rep
resentative of the sturdy class that has
opened up the resources of the great west
and made it what 1t IS. His education in
the mining business was acquired in the
drifts and tunnels, and while he has none
of the fine spun theories of the financiers,
he has decidedly practical views as to the
cause of the present depression and the
remedy.
1.-THE gold bugs of Wall street are re-
sponsible for the depreciation of silver, .
said Mr.. Kearns to HERALD reporter.
s'The remedy, of course, is to put the
white metal upon its former footing, and
to accomplish this I believe the mining
men of the west should meet in
Salt Lake city and form a pool. Let us
shut off the supply, and thus force the
issue. A plan of this kind could easily be
carried out, in my judgment, for the in
terests OF mining men are identical, and
there is nothing in the production of sill
yer at present prices. We could shut off
the supply and go ahead with the neces-
sary development work.
''Do you think that wages viii have to
be reduced2''
II dc not,'' said Mr.. Kearns, en-
phat'cally. II we cannot afford to pay
our men present wages let US shut down.
With the chances the miners take on their
lives and the nature of the work, it would
be an outrage to reduce their wages. But
! don't believe a reduction is necessary
Any mine that does not pay now could
not be made to pay through cutting the
miners wages so cents.
''What do you think is the prospect
for relief"
"Wel, you know, in union there is
strength. and believe that if we organ
lie, agree upon plan Of action and make
a vigorous fight we shall win. Silver can
not be restored at one bound, but it can
be put back into its old place gradually"

Why Two Thirds of Our Ores Are
Treated Elsewhere.
FUEL, FLUX AND FREIGHT.
Superintendent Keans's Views On Sill
yer and Wage Reduction.
Local Stock History of the
Oldest Deep Creek Districr-The Des-
eret ProPerties-ore and Bullion
Shipments Mining News.

The article in yesterdav's HERALD
calling attention to the fact that two
thirds of the ores mined in this territory
are sent to Denver, Pueblo, Kansas City
and Omaha for smelling, attracted much
comment in mining circles, as did the
reference to the necessity for lower rail-
road rates on ore and bullion to enable
the mines to successfully meet the de-
preston caused by the low price of silver.
A. Hanauer was seen by HERALD re-
porter yesterday afternoon and gave some
valuable information as to existing freight
rates.
The rates from Bingham are g per ton
to Utah common points and 81 additional
to Leadville, 81. so to Denver and $3.50 to
the Missouri river.
The rates from Tintic are as follows: To
Salt Lake, $3.50, and to Leadville, 81 adj
dltional; to Denver and Pueblo, $50,
and to the Missouri river, S9.5 for not
over $50 valuation per ton.
The Park City rates are g to Salt Lake
and 81 additional to Denver and SO to the
Missouri river.
The rates from Frisco to Salt Lake are
s., to Denver S12. so and to the Missouri
river S14. so.
Mr.. Hanauer estimates that from 80, 900
TO 100, GOO tons of ore were smelted in this
territory this year.
.'Why is it that the home smelters can
not treat all the ore mined in this terri
tory?"
For the reason, - said Mr.. Hanauer,
t'there is so much competition from the
outside smelters that we cannot get the
ore. We are now buying it at loss. >"
1sWhat advantage have the Colorado
smelters that they are able to underbid
you?'
s'The rate on bullion from Colorado to
the Missouri river is but 9, while we have
to pay Sl2.'
Are there any other advantages which
discriminate against you?H
'"rhey pay IS for fuel, while we pay
S11. Coal COSTS them from 81. rs to g per
ton, while we pay from So to 81. -
Would natural gas help you out on
the fuel question:
Natural gas could be introduced into
the roasters and used 10 a limited extent. "
"Then it is matter Of fuel and freight
rates that is responsible for two-thirds OF
Utah ores being sent abroad for smelt-
ing?"
1--WE have to buy q great deal of raw
material, iron, for fluxing. Our iron ore
costs "a a ton when laid down here, and
the same at Leadville does not cost more
than 81 per ton. Their iron ore carries
from two to twelve ounces OF silver which
they pay for at the rate Of go cents pei
ounce, leaving the smelter profit on this
product, while our iron ore carried nc
silver.

There is also an excellent route from

Loyal to Grover Cleveland and Also to

Regarding silver the platform approves
of the use of both gold and silver and de-
mands that every dollar shall be equal to
every other dollar, in fact as well as law:
opposes free coinage by the United States
alone at the ratio of l6 to /, and demands
the repeal of the "Sherman" silver law be-
cause it is establishing silver monometal-
ism in the country. The necessity of an
organization in party is acknowledged,
but the organization must not claim to be
the party and suppress the party's voice
by such proceedings as the "snap" conven-
tion. When it does that it ceases to be
representative, imperils success and makes
it duty that action be taken to restore
just relations.
Cleveland the Proper Leader.
mistaken confidence in the ability and
integrity of Cleveland is declared: that he
is the choice of an overwhelming major
ity of New York Democrats and can carry
the state; that by nominating him at Chi
cago the convention will carry out the al
most unanimous wish of the party and
best consult the welfare of the country.
The platform closes as follows: ave
pledge ourselves to support the candi-
dated nominated at Chicago The delega-
tion chosen by this convention is instruct
ed to act as unit according to the deter
mlnation OF majority of its members"

and then speechmaking was in order.
Speeches were delivered by Judge Louns-

sented the honesty and morality of the
Democratic party; Robert NcCarty, of
Syracuse, and Joel Benton, of Ulster coun-
ty. A supplemental resolution recon-
mending the nomination of Cleveland
was adopted. Then Fairchild offered
resolutions naming as presidential electors
