Royal ENCOURAGE ment of Coral Work

Queen Margherita. of Italy, intends to
be seenra good deal this season wearing
coral jewelry in order to encourage an in
dustry which In late years has somewhat
fallen upon evil days. Ii would not be
surprising if the fashion were to spread
to London. as coral is becoming to almost
any complexion and can, of course, be
had in any shade, from a rose-pink so
delicate as to be almost imperceptible,
up 40 q vivid red. If a revival of the
dainty old filigree setting should also set
in the outcome should mean many pretty
things of kind that would ne quite
novelty to the girls of today.

st tAt-ments OF the Coal Strike by Miner and

statements of the Coal Strike by Miner md
The .Denver News today publishes
two statements of the coal st1lke stu
alton, one from the miners side and one
from the owners. The statement Of
President Geo. Ransom of the Lafayette
union IS as follows:
"The men are at white heat, and if the
deputies make one bad break, The whole
district will turn loose on them. We
think this importation is composed OF
the scum of Denver. The Northern
company cannot get more than fifty such
all told, and such men would not pro.
duce any more coal than ten miners.
Of those who came in this evening only
one has worked IN a coal nine before.
The more of this kind of people I'm
ported the more aggravated the people
become. The steady running OF the
Mitchell cannot break the backbone of
the strike. do not think the men will
commit any violence, but ,hey will hold
out until the Northern Coal company
comedies to their demands whatever
may come. This is our uitimatum.
We shall, tomorrow, communicate with
Sheriff Thompson of Boulder. IN an en-
deavor to have the depuues dlsarmed."
President ames Cannon of tlc Nor h.
ern Coal company makes the following
statement:
"rhe Northern Coal company has
made all the overtures and oHtrs to the
men that l, Can make. They have con-
sidered The necessities of the company
and welfare OF the men. 1t was not the
desire of the company TO impurt labor
from other quarters unless necessary to
do SO 10 secure the operation of its
mines. If this necessity does arrive in
order to accomplish the operation OF the
mines, they will not hesitate to do so,
and shall get such men as are required
that are qualified to do the work. We
rely upon the good sense OF the common.
wealth to maintain peace. We will use
all such efforts for the protection of our
property and men as the law affords.
This is our utimatum."

Unequal Mine Assessment.

A protest is being made against the
present method or lack of method in as.
sessing mines and in behalf of George
R. Williamson as owner of the yell
low Pine, Hon. R. H. Whiteley paid a
trip to Denver yesterday to consult with
Attorney General Carr in reference to
the matter.
"The method pursued" said Mr..
Whiteley this morning "is to tax 20 per
cent of the product of working mine
and to tax an idle mine on its whole
value. Thus 100000 mine which pro-
duces $4,000 may be taxed on $4,000
one year, and if idle the next be taxed
upon its full value of 100000. The diff.
fculty comes in actually determining so
intangible thing as the value of mine.
Its past production cannot be taken into
account tor taxation and its future re.
sources are impossible of calculation.
What would be more reasonable is to
tax the acreage. the output and improve
ments. In the absence of any of these,
tax the remaining. Thus if the patent
is not secured tax product and improve
ments; if not producing tax improve
medts and so on. This is done in south.
ern counties with success and works no
injustice.
"The supreme court has made de.
clson on the point in question, but left
the exact wording regarding the taxing
of idle mines ambiguous. General Carr
has not been called upon by the com.
missioners to settle the point in ques.
ton and of course, until he is, or until
test case is carried to court we must
g1ope about without any fixed, definite
rule to work upon"
