Cripple Creek.

The following newspaper comments
on the situation at Cripple Greek, Col,
are reproduced for their interest in
showing the sentiment of the Colorado
press in this direction
Times; We are glad to see the effort
being made at last to put an end to the
unwerranted and foolish strike at
Cripple Greek which has Injured that
camp more during the past four or FIVE
months thar il can possibly regain dur
ing the remainder Of the year. We
deprecate lawlessness at all times for
the reason that capital is most freely in
vested and labor most extensively en-
ployed where law is most carefully
observed. Capital exposed to the perils
of mobs must be made to earn enough
to allow for such losses. and consequent
ly its products are sold for more money
and its laborers earn less wages, thus
lawlessness works double injury to the
laboring man.
Record: The striking miners who
blew up The Strong SHAFT house at Cripple
Creek. should be severely punished to
the full extent of the law. The wilful
and alicious destruction of $4,000
worth Of property and endangsring Of

be tolerated by the authorities. Ell Paso

vantage from its development.-Star.

The Globe gold lode, located six miles
west Of ibis place, and owned by c. A.
Haserodt and Charles Harbach, of this
city, is showing remarkably rich ore at
a depth of 10 feet. Ore taken out this
week has been tested with the most
pleasing and satisfactory results. A
conservative estimate Of its value could
not be less than 500 per ton, and Of this
value at least one.third, or $50 per ton
may be saved by the ordinary free mill
ing process. The vein is exceptionally
well defined and has a width of five feet
at a depth of 40 feet from the surface, it
having gradually widened from the sur
face, where its width is but Is inches, TO
its present width of FIVE feet at the
depth stated. This lode can not be
otherwise than valuable, and if it were
located in any other locality than the
southern Hills, it would readily sell for
a sum sufficient to make its owners in
dependent for the balance of their
natural lives.

Review Of the Markets.

The passing weeks show that the wave
Of financial and industrial depression is
receding. Hundreds OF factories through
out the country have again started up,
many Of them during the past week, and
though reduced scale Of wages is usually
paid, the fact is still plain that there is
an increasing demand for their products,
and that conditions are adjusting them
selves for increased trade in all lines.
The improvement in local business is
noticeable, not to the extent that pros.
porous season shows with the opening OF
spring, but, considering the uncertain and
disagreeable weather, characteristic of the
weeks past, the showing is encouraging.
Financial conditions are improving and it
is easier to raise money for business en-
terprises in Tacoma today than for over a
year past. Prospects for manufacturing
are excellent, and the indications are that
more establishments, with greater diver
sity of output, will be establi he'd in
Washington this season than ever before.
Preparations are ready for great dcvel-
opment in our mines with the departure
of snow from the mountains. Immigra-
ton is on the increase, and, in fact, there
are discernible more signs of substantial
improvement today, both in Tacoma and
throughout the state, than for a long time
past.-West Coast Trade.
