who participated and their families for
many months to come, and in addition to
the purely financial cost Of the strike there
Is to be counted the great injury done to
the children of the misguided men who
lost their positions by following the bad
advice of their leaders. The loss of the
maintaining salary of the head of the fam
lily results in throwing these children out
of school and upon the streets in an effort
to contribute to the support of the house
hold. There they may learn to be self
reliant men and women, but the chances
are far greater that they will yield to the
other influences that lead to lower grades
Of life
So 1t is moral as much an economic
question that is yet to be answered when
the query Is put: Does 1t pay to strike?
There is no doubt Of the value of organiza-
ticn among all classes of laboring men;
trades unions are as necessary as incor-
pcrations of capital. Men of common pur-
suits, instincts and tastes banded together
under good leadership will improve them
selves as surely as there is the natural
tendency in man to better his condition,
but with bad leaders and with mistaken
notions of the functions of organization
the workingmen of America cannot help
themselves. 1t would seem to be true that
few of the managers Of strikes ever realize
the tremendous responsibility that rests
with them when they begin to consider the
advisability of ordering out their followers.
They are in a sense more responsible than
the leader of a political revolution, for the
latter attracts to his standard at first only
the disaffected elements of society, and
history shows that the men who flock to
the first call of rebellion have little to lose
and all to gain from success. On the other
hand. the participants in a strike. which
Is a revolution against corporation or an
employer. are necessarily in a position to
lose their all by failure and to gain moth
ing except in the rarest cases. The chances
are decidedly against the striker. A strike
is lottery in which the tickets are ex-
pensive, and which has no capital prizes.

All of the necessary preparations are
being made by the Utah Sugar COM
pany for the commencement of the
seasons run at the Lehi factory, and
the contracts for supplies are being
let by General Manager Cutler, acting
in accordance with the instructions of
the board of directors. OF these con-
tracts there are quite a number, the
most important being that providing
for the delivery of the bags in which
the product of the plant is sacked and
placed upon the markets. AS has been
the case for some years, the Bemis
Bag company, of Omaha, will again
this year supply all of the bags neces-
sary to take care of the sugar turned
out by the company, which is now es-
tlmated at over six million pounds.
The contract providing for the delivery
of the sacks was signed up yesterday,
Manager Cutler coming up from Lehi
for the purpose of closing up the deal.
Here he met w. n. Decker, agent for
the BemiS company, and the agree
ment was soon drawn and made Of
fetal by the signatures of the Utah
Sugar company. by Manager Cutler,
This is the heaviest contract ever
made by the sugar company, it hav-
ing been decided to order an increase
in the number of bags, in anticipa-
ton of the coming increase Of the pro-
duction of sugar. 1t provides for the
delivery at Lehi of $1,000 double sugar
bags, or 10000 singles. These sacks
will take care of 6,5OO,OOO pounds of
sugar.
Every day improves the condition of
the sugar beet crop and the plants
never looked so well at this time of
the year. They are about three weeks
ahead of last year and the indications
are that the works will commence
the manufacture of sugar fully a
month earlier than was the case last
year Manager Cutler is of the opin-
ion that between the LIST and 5th of
September the machinery at the works
will be placed in motion.

Receiver Mason, of the Salt Lake
Copper Manufacturing company, is
now in full possession OF all of the
properties of that defunct concern, the
transfer having been made yesterday
afternoon by Trustee Hanauer. 1t did
not require many minutes TO make
the change from trustee to receiver,
for all of the preliminaries had re-
ceived attention, and during the af-
ternoon Mr. Mason entered upon the
act. service of his new office. He has
not yet announced who will be re-
Iained by him as assistants, but IL is
highly probable that Mr.. Flintham
will remain out st the works, for some
Kline to come, at least.
There is now much speculation as
TO what will finally become of the
great works, and the prediction is
made oy a gentleman who is well on
the inside that before many months
have passed the Harrison faction will
Zoe in full possession, first having paid
off all unpaid claims and effected
compromise with the SakS-May and
Singer sides of the house. 1t is under
stood that negotiations are now on,
(which If they eliminate favorably will
result IL the payment of all Of the re-
manning inStallmentS on the purchase

revenue, added to that which is TO ac-
crue through the sale Of some of the
personal property out az the plant. in

in the neighborhood of $4,000 in ready
cash With this money it is anticipated
thar he viii pay the undisputec claims
against the company held% by outside
people, which aggregate 100000 The
retirement of this amount would leave
but the creditors under the original
deed of trust and would wipe out the
claims of all nOn-members of the COM
pany, with the exception of that of
Stalmann. The aggregate of the claims
against the company at the present
time is s2S7, 200. which includes the
Amos lien. IN the event of the Harri-
son faction effecting settlement
through compromises. it is anticipated
that the plant win be completed and
operated as a general smelter.

referred to melted something over
$1,000 per car.
Advices received from the north are
TO the effect that since the commence

have not to date become as smooth as
will be the case within the next few
weeks. Then a car load a day of the

hex is Looking Well.

Mayor Holbrook, of Provo, came up
from the south yesterday morning. In
company with Mr.. Campbell he went
down to the hex some days ago and
there met Mr.. Mount, who is oversee
ing the developments of the properties
The gentlemen devoted number of
days to an inspection of the mines and
found them in splendid shape. The re-
cent strike in the tunnel is proving to
be of great Importance, and the show
ing improves with every foot of deVel-
opment work done. There are several
propositions under consideration as to
the future operation of the mines and
the treat ment of the ores, sand it is not
at all unlikely that shipments will be
made to the smelter at bennington.
Mr.. Campbell went south from Oasis
for the purpose of attending to the
shipment of cattle which he is about
TO make. while Mr.. Mount remained at
the mines

WOOL SALES COMING.
Several Clips Are BEING Held in and
Around Price.

Within the next few days some good
sales of wool are to be made in the vi
cinity of the station of Price, on the
Rio Grande Western, there being about
a clean hundred thousand pounds OF
the staple still unsold there. w. L.
Pickard came in from out on the line
of the Western yesterday afternoon, at
ter spending several days in the search
for good buys. He returned without
having closed up any deals, having
found the wool in an unmarketable
condition on account of the great
storms which have visited that section
of the territory during the past few
days To date there has been about
$4,000 pounds of the late clip received
at Price and placed in storage, while
there are in the neighborhood of 10000
pounds more still to come in. Most of
the latter lot was caught in the storms
and thoroughly soaked with the rain.
Some of it was even abandoned along
the route from the sheep camps to the
station and the losses will not be light.
With the sale of this wool the season
in the eastern portion of the territory
will have been pretty generally ended.
OF course. there will still be few clips
retained by the growers, but the move
ment will be practically over.
Wool movements in the north still
continue heavy and the same general
range of good prices is in force. Sales
are now frequently made at IA cents
but of course. where such figures are
commanded the quality of the clips is
very good. The class of woods which
are practically the same as the ordin-
airy Utah product are bringing from
101s cents to Is cents. Good advices
continue to come from the east relative
to the wool markets there and there
seems to be a tendency to increase quo
tations rather than to cut those recent
ly given out. OF the sales of wool
made at Great Falls, Montana, on
Thursday, the correspondent of the
Anaconda Standard sent his paper the
following, under a Great Falls date
line:
Wool continues to errive in great
quantities and the following sales are
reported today: T. Townsend to Els
mann Bros, $1,000 pounds at 121s; W.
H. Peick to Livingston, 1900 pounds

pretty generally understood, the trouble
is the outcome of the determination on
the part of the new company TO place
it's poles and utilize the space between
the wires of the Telephone company
and those of the old Electric Light COM
pany. This matter was under consid-
GRAFTON by the board of public works
and the committee on streets for some
time and it resulted in a draw, the
city deciding to withdraw from the
fight for the present and allow the
companies to settle their dispute, so
long as they did not cause any losses
or inconvenience to the citizens or the
municipality. The Telephone company
and the Pioneer Electric Light COM
pany made the same objections to the
stringing of the wires of the Citizens
company in the space selected by the
latter, both holding that it would in
terfere with the operation of their
systems by both direct contact and in
duction. Notwithstanding these objec-
lions the new company went right
ahead with the construction of the
wire system and now has in the neigh
borhood Of a mile of poles in place
ands the remainder on the ground
ready for placing.
propose to place a block, or a series
of blocks, in the way of the newcomer.
With the aid of crossarms, wires are
being strung in the space which the
Citizens company expects TO occupy
with its wires. and it is very evident
that unless an adjustment is speedily
made, serious trouble will arise. In
view of the objections they have made
it is hardly likely that either of the
old companies will spare any pains to
prevent the Citizens people from enter
ing their territory with it's wire sys-
tenn.
Down at the power house of the
Citizens company construction is
again under way the trusses for the
roof having arrived and been placed
in position. 1t is the intention of the
company to push the plant and outside
system to an early completion, say the
promoters of the enterprise and it is
anticipated that the initial shipments
of machinery and wire will reach
here in the very near future.

Returns We're Not Great.

The samples brought in from the
scene of the latest gold excitement by
Professor Korty and the gentlemen
who accompanied him on the tour of
exploration. were assayed yesterday,
and while all showed traces of gold,
none of the returns were very f1atter-
ing The gentlemen interested in the
new locations contend that as the
samples treated were but groupings,
they did not give a fair idea of the
worth of the ore, but that, on the other
hand. development only would show
the full value of the properties. 1t is
not at all unlikely that some work
will be done on tie locations in the
near future; in fact, the interested
parties declare that it is their intention
to thoroughly develop the properties
for the purpose of ascertaining what is
in them

CONTRACT PRACTICALLY LET.
Frazer & Chalmers Will Probably
Get the Sioux Machinery.


While the official announcement has
not yet beer made, it is pretty gener-
ally understood among machinery
men that Frazer & Chalmers will re-
ceive the contract for the Sioux mill
machinery. The contest is now said to
he entirely between that firm and L. G..
Trent & Co., and the decision is antici-
Dated today. MesSrs. Farrell and Rob-
inson came in from the property yes
1erday morning after several days
spent there and during the remainder
of the day were in consultation &c
garding the machinery deal. When seen
last evening both OF the gentlemen
stated that the award for the mill had
not yet been made, but something def
mite would De announced in the very
near future 1t is to be 20-stamp ocm-
bination mill, with sufficient space and
power for a 40-stamp battery When
completed the plant will be one OF the
most complete in the territory.
For some time past the construction
contractor has had a force of men at
work eXcava ting for the mill. and shis
work is now nearly completed. The
railroad has located switch to the
site of the plant and this is to be con-
structed at once. Rhodes Brothers

STOCKHOLDERS ALL WILLING.
No Question Regarding the Rein
corporatiOn of the Great Coop.

No question Regarding the Helm
corporation Of the Great Coop.
With the exception of the holders of
in the neighborhood of 500 shares of
stock, the members of the lions Co
operative Mercantile institution have
all signified their desire for the re-
Incorporation of the institution, whose
life will expire by time limitation
within the next few months. This
stock unheard of is practically all tied
up in estates, either of minors or de-
ceased persons, and only by an order
of the probate courts having jurisdic-
ton can any action be taken. There
is no longer any doubt as to the re-
organization, for the vote of the
stockholders will be unanimous on
the subject The members of the in
stitution have nothing to gain by a
dissolution and everything to lose in
the event of such action being ever
taken.
While no open movement has been
made. other than the issuing
of the address of the presi-
dent and secretary, it is under
stood the preliminaries are receiv-
ing attention and everything will be in
readiness for the reincorporation some
time before the date of the expiration
of the institutions present articles of
incorporation. 1t is proposed to leave
the capital stock at the same figure as
at the present. Some idea of the popu-
larity of the stock of the institution
may be CLEANED from the statement
that recent blocks sold have gone for
SOL, which is l per cent. above par.

AN AMENDED COMPLAINT.
One Has Been Filed in the Cyanide
Patent Case.


Having been knocked out on demur-
ger at the first brush OF the cyanide
patent case, the Gold and Silver Elk
Traction company Oimited) has just
filed its amended complaint against the
Mercur Gold Mining and Milling
company, john Dern and II. w. Brown.
While the material facts as set out
in The new instrument are the same
as ahese contained in the original, yet
there is a change in their presentation
and instead of one cause of action
there are thee distinct ones set up.
the third being a jOinture of the two
principal ones involving the use of
the cyanide of potassium as a solvent
and the zinc shsvings as a precipitate
The solvent Is presented as the first
cause of action, the preciptate as
second and these two joined as a third.
There is still nothing said in the COM
plant as TO whether or not the ores
of Mercur are base.
The defense will more than likely
Rgain demur to the complaint and
The instrument will be attacked in a
number of vital parts. All of the par
ties involved in this suit on the side
of the defense seem to be little worried
over this newest phase in the case and
zhe attorneys are already preparing
their side for presentation to the court.
