There are about 375 men en-
ployed at the Pioneer mine at
the present time and more are
being added as fast as room can
be made for them. About 1000
tons day are being hoisted from
the shaft and this amount will
be increased steadily as the de

progresses. The old B shaft
has been fixed up as timber
shaft, and this leaves the main
shaft free to hoist sore. A big

and by Spring the property will
be in fine shape for shipping.

LAKE COPPER HINES.

The Marine Review under
stands that full II, 900 men were
working in and around the cop
per mines of Lake Superior
when navigation closed a few
weeks ago. In 1898 not more
than 5000 men we're engaged,
and in 1897 not more than 8, 900.
The boom in the copper indus
try, with prospecting operations
going on in various new fields,
says the Review, was the FIST
cause Of a scarcity of labor and
advanced wages in the iron
mines: Although miners in the
copper region were paid higher
wages than prevail in any of the
other mining fields, there has
been great difficulty all through
the year in securing men sufic.
lent for development work in
duced by activity in ithe copper
industry. The value Of lake
copper product during 1898 ex-
ceeds $18, 0o0, 900, Of which ow-
ing to the high price obtained
: for the metal, not far from So.
100000 is profit to the mines.
Copper mines Of the lake coun-
try are valued at about $3.50, 900,
600, which is more than 81 times
their worth in 1893, and more
than twice their value ID 1895.
One mine alone, the famous
Calumet & Hecla, to which more
than to any others the note Of
this region il the public eye is
due, has risen in market value
from 800 to about $500. Even
at 5000 a share this stock, whose
par value is $25, is a good in
vestment. for it is paying 200
per cent q year on its capitaliza
ton of 81, SOC, 900. This year ii
has paid "a, O0O. 600.

case. To this end. and to have the mat
ter definitely understood letter was
Thursday addressed to the Governor,
notifying him Of the Commissions inten-
ton to employ counsel. The Commission
desired to know whether or not this met
His Excellency's approval, and they en-
quired whether they were authorized to
employ the necessary counsel at expense
of the State.
To this the Governor CURLY renlied
that he was the proper one to employ
counsel and he would do so at the proper
time.
That this view was not shared by the
Commissioners is shown by the fact that
they proceeded to employ lawyers as
above indicated and went blythely away
to the National convention Of Railroad
commissioners mt Denver, Colorado.
