TRYING TO FIX IT UP
The Situation in the Occur d'Alenes
Again Critical.
MANY MEN ARE IN WANT
Wardner's People Have Petitioned
the Sullivan and Bunker Hill n
Management to Reopen
the Big Mines.

Special Dispatch to the Standard.
Spokane, Wash. May 1o.-The situ-
alton at Wardner, in the Occur
d'Alenes, is critical. The mines have
been closed for so long that enormous
financial loss has been sustained by
the residents of that district; many
business houses have closed up and
many more will have TO succumb IL
some relief does not come soon. There
was a mass meeting in Knights of
Pythias hall the other evening which
nearly all the business men in the
camp attended. The whole situation
was discussed at length. In the early
days of the struggle between the Min
ers union and the Mine Owners asso-
citation there was scarcely a business
man in Wardner who was not avow-
eddy and openly a friend of the min
ers. They all felt a deep interest in
keeping up the scale of wages.
But the long months of idleness and
business depression. coupled with the
great fall in the price of silver and
lead. has wrought a change in public
sentiment, and now the voice of nearly
every resident and property owner in
Milo gulch is for a compromise which
will result in the opening of the big
mines and giving work to hundreds OF
men who sadly need IL.
At the mass meeting a letter was
read from w. +. Bradley. general man
ager of the Sullivan and Bunker HILL
stating that the company was willing
TO start the mines at SO a day for min
ers and $3.50 a day for common labor
ers. and would furnish employment
for several hundred men. The follow
ing petition was then drawn up and
signed by all who were in attendance:
We. the undersigned citizens or Wardner and
Kellogg. In consideration OF the ex-
tremely low price OF lead and silver
now ruling, and In further consideration
OF the fact that the cost OF living has
decreased, believe that while these low prices
continue So per day for miners and g.. so tor
day laborers are fair and Just rates of wages.
We further believe that the Bunker Hin &
sullivan Mining Concentrating company have
the same right to manage their own an as
we have 20 manage ours and we hereby pledge
the company our cordial support In its determl-
nation to pay no higher wages while the prices
OF lead and silver are so low.
1t is being understood that said comnany will
restore wages TO the former basis to $3.50 and
So whenever the prices of lead and silver adj
vance so that the combined value In New York
OF 100 pounds OF lead and two and one-half
ounces OF silver shall amount to So.
Many of the miners in the camp have
signed the petition, but others declare
the mines shall never resume until the
old scale of wages is restored.

stated to a reporter this morning that

While some of the points of the con-

BROKE THE RECORD.
The Blonde Brakeman Tells of Fast
Run on Montana Line.


Run on a Montana Line.
The Railroad Club met Tuesday
evening in the usual place, and af-
ter short business session the
boys drifted into Hshop" conversa-
ton. The recent fast run Of the
general managers special from
Hope to Missoula was commented
on, and the talk on fast runs be-
came general. Several stories of
remarkable time made on different
occasions were related, and when
the blonde brakeman got the floor
he saw that he was expected to
break the record. And he did.
Speaking of fast runs" said he,
"why, that little Montana Union
Line lays over anything / ever
saw. No Dutch clocks or anything
else to hold a man down there. l
worked for that road when Bob
Smith was dispatcher, and when he
told the boys to wheel 'em' we all
knew what 1T meant. One day we
were going north and were detain-
ed in various ways until we reach
ed Stewart. Bob wired the con. at
that point that he wanted our
tram to get to Garrison just as
quick as God would let us. We
had clear track before we started
and it wasn't long before the tele-
graph poles looked like picket
fence. The biggest burst of speed
was reserved for the home stretch
from Deer Lodge to Garrison, II
miles. We didn't stop Deer
Lodge, but as we approached that
place the engineer sounded the
whistle as usual-and you may
take my head for a football if the
slow sign in the Garrison yards
wasn't passed by our train before
that whistle had ceased to sound"
This made the boys look weary,
but the "braky" hadn't finished
yet. He continued:
"Well, we put our train away
and were resting ourselves, when
we glanced up the track and saw a
dark streak approaching at light
ming gait. We were astounded for
an instant, but as it slowed up we
readily recognized 1t as the shad-
ow of the train we had just brought
in"
And the boys all rose up, and af-
ter presenting the relator with a
regularly signed license the club
adjourned.-Ex.

And Ther became Frlends.

The other day citizen called at
the stamp window of the postoffice
and laid two pennies on the shelf
The clerk looked at him for ten
seconds and then queried: "Two
ones?" ''No of course not! When
man lays down two cents he
wants a two-cent stamp, of course"
"Not always" "But that's the in
ference. After this when you see
two pennies down here you can in
fer that two-cent stamp is want
ed" Next day the same man call
ed and put down a $1,000 bill, and
before he could speak the clerk
showed it back to him with the re-
mark: "The government dosn't
issue any," "Any what?" "Any
thousand-cent stamps. Sorry 1
can't accommodate you" "Who
asked for thousand-cent stamp?"
"You did. Whenever u man lays
down $1,000 bill the inference is
that he wants one of those stamps,
but as | said, they are not issued"
The man picked up his bill and
walked out with a red face, but
five minutes later he returned and
dropped cigar on the shelf and
good-naturedly queried: "And
what do you infer from that?"
"Smoke-shake!" replied the clerk,
and the two became friends.-De-

YOU KISSED ME.

The following lines were written
some years ago, by young lady
less than twenty years of age:
You kissed mel My head dropped
low on your breast
With a feeling of shelter and in
finite rest.
While the holy emotions my tongue
dared not speak
Flashed up in a fame from my
heart to my cheek.
Your arms held me fast: Oh! your
arms were so bold;
Heart beat against heart in their
passionate fold.
Your glances seemed drawing my
soul through my eyes,
AS the sun draws the mist from
the seas to the skies.
Your lips clung to mine till pray
ed in my bliss
They might never unclasp from
the rapturous kiss.
You kissed mel My heart and my
breath and my will
In delirious joy for a moment
stood still.
Life had for me then no tempta-
tions, no charms,
No visions of happiness out
side of your arms.
And were / this instant an angel
possessed
OF the peace and the joy that are
given the blest,
l would fling my white robes un-
repiningly down,
l would tear from my forehead
it's beautiful crown,
To nestle once more IN that haven
Of rest
Your lips upon mine, my head
on your breast.
You kissed me! My soul in bliss
so divine.
Reeled and swooned like a drunk
en- man, foolish with wine,
And l thought 'twere delicious to
die there, if death
Would but come while my lips
were yet moist with your breath:
'Twere delicious to die ifmy heart
would grow cold
While your arms clasped me
round in their passionate fold.
And these are the questions ask
day and night:
Must lips taste no more such ex-
quisite delight?
Would you care if your breast
were my shelter then,
And if you were here would you
kiss me again?

In Europe Because OF the Critical Sit
uation in Asia Minor.
There was much excitement in
London at the Foreign Office last
week on the receipt of the Official
dispatches confirming the eNalr
dispatches of the AsH6
from Constantinopl6g
that the Turkish Govefaiheflt had
refused to agree to the reforms in
Armenia which were demanded by
the representatives of Great Britain,
France and Russia.
There is a strong belief in well
informed circles that the reply of
the Porte was purposely drafted in
unfavorable tel ms IN order to gain
time. The Sultan is invisi Bile dur
ing the Bairam, one of the two
great Mahommedan festivals of the
year, which is now being observed.
Consequently the powers, it is as
serted here, will now address a
stronger note to the Porte, and in
addition will back this up by a
naval demonstration.
The crisis in the East is already
regarded on all sides as being grave,
and this feeling is intensified by
the news from Constantinople to
day telling of the panic at Jiddah,
the threatened attack of the Bed
ouins and the flight of Europeans,
who are seeking safety on board
the vessels in the harbor. 1t is
freely predicted here that an out
break is inevitable. There is no
question of the powers abating
their demands in any form, although
there is growing belief that Rus
sia is backing Turkey in the latter's
refusal to agree to the reforms de-
manded by the powers of Armenia.

THE FARM,
ONION cuLrrRr.

Written for the GUARDIAN, by F. D. Mitchell J
Very little can be said about the
early history of the onion, although
it grew wild, and was cultivated as
an article of food from olden times.
Probably the plant came originally
from the far east. 1t is mentioned
in the Bible as one of the things
for which the Israelites longed for
when in the wilderness. These
people seemed to have become
quite fond of leeks, onions and
garlics of Egypt. These vegetables
also grew wild in many parts Of
north America. Herodotus tells
of an inscription on the great
pyramid stating that 1000 talents
had been paid for the onions,
radishes and garlics consumed by
the workmen during the erection
of that massive, but famous stone
heap.
The present production of the
onion in the United States has
reached enormous proportions, and
yet hundreds Of thousands of bush
els are annually imported from Ber-
muda, Cuba, Spain, and France.
1t seems to me that tbs should not
be. We should supSy our own
market with onions, or there is no
place under the sun where they
yield so enormously as they do in
California and Arizona. There has
been grown in Graham County
Arizona, on small scale at the
rate of about two thousands BUSH
els per acre; you can SOW or plant
any month in the year; the same
can be said of harvesting. And j
know ofno place in the world where
they can raise better onion seed
than in Arizona. Blight is un-
known here, and we have no rains,
dews, or fog to distroy the pollen,
but plenty of insects to carry it
from flower to flower, which goes
to make good seed. ! have raised
at the rate of q ton of seed per acre
in Arizona. have raised onions
for many years, and have made it
quite study, and don't know it
all, by any means; there is some
thing to learn every day and pro-
pose to give you some points on
raising onions; you can have them
free of cost, and if you follow them
you certainly will never regret it.
With q good piece of ground, and
plenty of old manure, and Gila
river water to begin with, We will
have pretty plain sailing. While
it is true that onions can be grown
on any of Graham county's soil,
yet / certainly have a choice
and prefer the low lands. You take
any of our bottom land on which
alfalfa has been grown successfully
for number of years, and YoR

in hot beds or green houses very
thickly and when they get up from
6 to s inches high they hire an
army of boys and young men to
transplant them to the open ground.
