r. w. Burnham, manager for Dun q Co.

trade conditions:
Mercanti Q conditions changed but little
during the week past. Trade, both jobbing
and retail, was generally good, values
steady, collections fairly satisfactory.
Warm weather delays the movement In
winter goods, but the demand for holiday
wares active. jewellers report trade reg
ister,ny quite an increase over last year.
Prices for general crop products are adj
vanclng, influenced by predictions of
drought. barley market 10 very firm.
There 10 strong eastern demand for Lima
beans, but buyers seek concessions in ask
ing prices that holders are not disposed to
meet.
Butter 10 easier, some shading in prices.
No material change in dried fruit market.
Inquiry fair; values maintain steady
tone.
In the oil district little pumping or d ill
ing IL being done. Lack OF storage capac-
ity IL one of the reasons for this inactivity.
So far this month there have been only
four mercantile failures, with liabilities
approxmating 10000; assets probably
$4,000 or $4,000 Que b Ank failure; condi-
tons not yet determined.

PLAcERs ON GREEN RIVER.
They Are Attracting a Great Deal of
Attention just Now.

Some very recent discoveries Of placer
ground about nine miles below Green
River. on the river of the same name:
are just now attracting a great deal of
attention. c. A. Berry, of Green River,
has Just arrived in the city from the
eastern portion of the territory. He re-
ports that things are very lively in the
vicinity of the prospective digginss and
there is abundant promise of even more
interest being taken in the placers by
outside people.
Mr.. Berry and several associates. were
the locators of the property which ere
ated all the excitement and they have
just sold under contract part of their
claims to a syndicate organized by a Mr..
Parkinson. They received the surn of
S2,3o0 and one Of the provisions Of the
contract of sale is that the syndicate
shall at once put the water from he
river out on the bars sold and also others
belonging to Mr.. Be0y and his associ-
ates. plant is being secured in Den
yer and the Improvement should be well
under way. within the next week or two.
It has always been known that there
was gold in the sand and gravel of the
Green river but the general idea among
prospectors was that there was not sufl-
Cient values to make operations profit
able. Now it seems, however, that there
has core change AMI outsiders are
taking 8 Id of the propositions and pro-
pose to work them to the best possible
advantage.
The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1895-09-25

Queer is getting the worst of the con-
hict. The consumer is the only person
receiving any benefit. Either the producer
must reduce the volume of his product or
prices, under the gold basis, must stay
down. There are but three producers. the
farmer miner and the fisherman. These
produce everything, while the other peo--
pie simply turn the products over and
over. With these three being continually
crushed and strained, it is only cues
ton of time when the bulwarks will be
broken down"
Silver or a Wall.
The captain looks with grave alarm on
the increased Importation of European
goods since the duties were lowered. Un-
less something is done for silver, he be-
Leyes the only hope for future prosper
ity of the country is in building a wall
of protection so high that prices of i'm
ported goods will be so great they will
not be in demand. Then the American
people would buy the home product. I'VE
must either put up BARRIERS said he,
or we must resume the expectation or
american products. Now wheat, cotton
and Kerosene oil have been the only ex-
portations that amounted to anything.
The Argentine farmer and the Russian %
cent laborer have settled the question as
far as wheat is concerned. 1t was pro-
phesiedl thar wheat would begin to move
Six weeks ago. The wheat is still IN the
country When will it begin to move?
The truth is that Europe does not want
home. The balance of trade is against
u.s., and there is no indication that it
will turn the other way. There was
time when we sent 200 coo, coo bushels of
wheat to, foreign markets and the price
was regulated in America. Now America
cuts no figure in the price, and Ameri-
can wheat will be in demand in the
great markets only when the crops fail
in Europe or South America. The indi
cations are that the president must keep
on issuing bonds and the American PEG
pie must meet the obligation. The bank
ing firm of Drexel, Morgan & Co. has
seen the dilemma and you have seen them
get out from under. 1t is one of the an
omalies of history for a country produc-
ing upwards of $40,000,00O in gold a year,
to go on issuing bonds to meet the ex-
penses of the government.
1.-The conditions which now exist here
are very grave ones indeed, and the WIS
creased circulating medium is what We
most want, and this can come only
through silver. The notes of low de-
nomination should be retired and substi-
tuted by silver"

foot wall. As soon as this is encoun-
lined and the group extensively devel-

the source of very animated discussions

was general that the company might

Mr. Cannon was in the city yesterday,
having remained at the properties for

tanning just what there is in the bot

made that there are eighteen inches of

in gold and silver both were. taken. and

John stubbs a Candidate.

Up to this time there has been some
fear that the legislative campaign
would be wanting in excitement. But
those who feared severe attack of
ennui may now rest in peace. John
Stubs is in the race for the legisla-
ture. The following panegyrical mani
festo was issued in his behalf yester-
day:
1T has been decided by the execu-
tive committee of the 'Workingmen' S
Political Reform and Protective asso-
citation of Salt Lake to put forth an
Independent labor candidate in the
field. They have decided that John
Stubs, who for the last two years
has done his utmost to better the con-
dition and obtain employment for the
unemployed is the most suitable can
didate. He fought hard to obtain rec
ognition for them in the constitutional
convention, and the labor article in the
constitution is mostly due to his eff
forts and indomitable energy. We
therefore consider that it would be to
our advantage to send to the new
state legislature a man so we'll quail
fed to han7le those important labor
questions, and we call upon all hon
est and intelligent workingmen to rem
der their services and support him in
the coming great political struggle
