The BIG Goa STRIKE.
Arrangements Tor Long Fight In the
Coal Districts.

pTrsBURG, April l1-Arran~ements for
the coal miners strike which is Go take
place next Saturday have heea ncarly conn
pleted. AZ n conference held between Nu.
uonal Organizer Cameron Miller nnd Dia-
trict President Cairns series of meetings
WAS arranged TO take place while The
strike is in progress to keep up enthusiasm
and keep the men I'm line.
In "a few days circulars viii be- sent out
20 the operators notifying chem that the
miners demand restoration Of the old
price for mining, which Is 30 cents iu this
district II is evident from the short oli-
cial notice which the operators viii receive
that the miners do not expect them 90 con-
sent to the advance in wngcs asked for, as
the operators would scarcely hnve time 60
come together and formulate any reply be-
fore the strike is declared
II Is thought, however, that they will
agree upon some concerted action before
the strike is well under hcadway la order
90 protect themselycs III IS pretty certain
that some of them asteast are now pre-.
pairing to continue operations with new
men the moment their present employees
lay down their picks. They claim that
about one. half of the 800 900 miners Ia the
country are out of work and have been idle
most OF the winter because they could find
no employment. They are consequently
very poor and anxious to go TO work no
any price. 10 is therefore claimed chat the
operators will have no trouble in getting
men to take their places.

MUNICIPAL MATTERS,
THE WATERSHED OF CITY CREEK
CANYON.
That Inquiry of the New York Life
Deal-Fire and Police Commission.

After over a years delay, the matter
of the watershed of City creek is to be
presented to the attention of Congress
by the city, for the purpose OF securing
if possible a deed to the government
land along the creek, of which there
are some 10000 acres. This property is
absolutely valueless to the government,
however, being all on the side of the
mountains and barren of both timber
and minerals. The argument which the
city will use in making the request is
that it is absolutely necessary for the
municipal ownership and control of the
land in order that the source OF water
supply may be kept free from pollution.
Under existing conditions the city can
only absolutely control that portion OF
the land owned by and vested in 1t,
and it is therefore necessary that steps
be taken to secure the consent of the
government. The instance of govern
ment ownership ard control of Red
Butte canyon, the source of water sup
ply for Fort Douglas, and the rigid
measures which have been adopted in
the effort to keep the canyon in a SAN
itary condition, will be cited in the petit
ton 1t is thought that the measure
necessary to give the land to the city
will go through without opposition.
The maps of the watershed have been
prepared by the engineer and were be-
fore the council last night.

The sugar factory of the Utah Sugar
company has resumed operations for
the season, and before the ponderous
machinery is stopped again, except it
should be on account of accidents or
breakages, the product of the works
will be considerably over 100000
pounds, provided, of course, the indi-
Gated quality of the beets holds out.
For the present the plant viii give
employment to ninety persons on the
inside, and about forty more in the
yards Operations will be continued
night and day and Manager Cutler does
not expect to finish the run until early
in the coming year.
On account of the great crop it will
be necessary for the company to pro-
vide additional storage capacity and a
large string of new sheds is to go up.
Within the next few days the harvest
ing of the tubers VIII be in full swing
all over the district and it will tax the
company 80 take care of the beets,
pending the construction of the new
sheds This beautiful weather is worth
thousands of dollars to the farmers who
are raising beets, for the tubers ripen
very rapidly when the conditions are
as favorable as now. Down in the vi
cinity of Springville the crops will be a
little backward. not having fully re-
covered from the recent cold rains.

MORE COUNTERFEIT MONEY.
This Time 1t is Twenty Dollar
Piece of Currency.

The Herald has several times recently
called attention to the fact that the
country is being flooded with counter
felt and .'sweated'' coins. These coins
are now frequently found by the bank
people in their SURPRISES at the close OF
the days business Still another spuri-
Gus niece has made its appearance
among the currency of the nation, and
it is not a coin, but a $40 bill. The res
ident secret service agent at Denver
has been notified to make careful can
vass and collect all of the spurious cur
rency. It is highly probable that some
of the bills are circulating in salt Lake.
The bill is a counterfeit of the silver
certificate of the issue Of 1881, check
letter c, plate No. 5, J. Fount Tillman,
register; D. n. Morgan, treasurer; por-
t1ait of Daniel Manning; small scel-
loped carmine seal. The counterfeit is
printed finely from an etched plate.
Close examination and comparison
with a genuine note reveals few weak
spots which may serve to detect the
counterfeit. In the portrait of Daniel
Manning the mustache does not curl at
the ends as in the genuine, but runs out
to stubbed ends. The portrait is fiat on
the paper also and does not stand out
in relief as does the genuine, and a
white line outlining the entire left side
of the face and neck is readily discern
ible
The color of the treasury numbers
on the counterfeit is good, but the fig
ures are out of proper alignment The
parallel ruled lines in the panels con-
tanning the numbers are broken, leav-
ing small white spots.
The knob, or head of screw belonging
to the bracket in the upper right hand
corner Of the face of the note, which is
shown in the panel containing treasury
number, is not shown in the counter
felt The counterfeit is from one-six-
tenth to one-eighth of an inch smaller
than the genuine. The fine shade line
around the words, This certificate -
etc, in the center of the back of the
note is much broken, and does not ap-
pear at all in number of places. The
color Of ink used on the back of the
note is too light, giving it d faded ap-
pearance.
The most glazing defect in this coun-
terfeit is the seal. which is the eight
scallop one, used only on national bank
notes. 1t is one-quarter of an inch
larger i'll diameter than the one used
in the genuine issues of the note, which
has twelve scallops. The color of the
seal is very good, but it will smear if
rubbed with a moistened finger. The
paper on which this note is printed is
of excellent quality, and contains the
distributed silk threads to be found in
the genuine.
