LEAD mINER's MEMORIAL.

Salt Lake Tribune : We are in receipt
of a pamphlet which is in fact a memo
rial to Congress asking for the old Nc
Kinley rates on lead and lead ores, and
issued by the Lead Miners association Of
southern New Mexico. The main facts
are that the consumption Of msnufac-
tured lead in this country always exceeds
the production ; that in the depression
Of 1894 we produced only $4,000 tons.
and the consumption was 1913, 900; in 1895
the production was 10000. and the con-
sumption 242. 900. Production increased
1000 and consumption seven times 1000
tons. Notwithstanding this, the indus
try Of lead mining is languishing. Many
mines have closed down and prospecting
has ceased. Then the memorial gives
the data of the ores lin sight in the
United States and Mexico. and shows
that without a fair tariff lead mining
cannot be carried on in this country ex-
Cept WueIe uuusuht tnCiitico ~

ment. Then the shelters are permitted
to import and manufacture lead "in
bond" and the lead trusts" are permit
ted to import European pig lead at small
cost, to threaten and break down the
American market. Another thing. all
the losses are forced upon the American
mine owners. Indeed, we believe that
manufactured lead is as high or higher
than it was in 1890, though since then all
forms Of property, except such as are
held up by trusts, have greatly declined,
some as much as 40 per cent.
