WELLS ON MINING.

When Governor Wells was in New
York City attending the Dewey recep-
ton he was interviewed by Whitelaw
Reid's paper In the course of his re-
marks his excellency said: Unlike
most states in the far west Utah owes
her wealth primarily to agriculture
In explaining why he placed agri-
culture first the governor said: This
method of development lay in the fact
that her first settlers were not seek
ing so much for wealth as for a home.
These pioneers of whom speak soon
found that the arid waste needed but a
little moisture to turn it into a gar
den of plenty. They learned to hus-
band the waters of their streams. near
the mountain sources. and to let them
run forth in times Of drouth. Utah,
therefore. can boast of being the pio-
neer in irrigation. When her people
had gained wealth in this way they
nut their capital into mines, thus an
ticipating the inroads of foreign CAPT

eumulated capital in agricultural pur-
suits. invested it in mines and thus de-
veloped the mining industry in ad-
vance of outside capital. We are not
sure that his excellency is warranted
in this statement by the facts. 1t is
hardly probable that agriculture was SO
profitable to the people Of Utah until
after the mining industry began to
flourish. From this it would appear
that outside capital had actually de
veloped the mines in the first place,
although thousands of mining men and
capitalists have since taken up their
residence here on account of the eli
mate. the beautiful location, and the
constantly increasing output of she
mines. There is a somewhat prevalent
idea in this section that the pioneers
were opposed to mining for various
reasons and that their efforts to create
wealth, as far as it was possible to
control them, were centered in pastoral
pursuits.

CANADIAN BouNTIEs.

1t is possible to get a fair idea of the
practical workings of the bounty sys-
TEN by examining the privileges and
opportunities of the Boston syndicate
which owns the Belle Isle iron mines
off Newfoundland, mentioned in The
Herald of yesterday.
Owing to the extent of the ore bed
and the ease with which it is mined,
it is estimated that 2S, 000, 900 tons of ore
can be taken out of the earth, loaded,
Skinned. unloaded, and laid down at
the blast furnaces to be constructed
bv the syndicate at so cents per ton
The coal for the ovens is obtained from
the Cape Breton mines at so cents PEI
ton. Limestone is abundant where the
furnaces are building. The cost OF
production is thus reduced to a mini
mum which was never before deemed
attainable. and will enable the syndi-
cate to successfully compete with the
iron and steel trust of this country in
foreign markets, although the Pennsyl-
vania magnates will be enabled tc
make good on domestic consumption
what they lose in foreign competition
Their monopoly is protected.
But this Boston syndicate, operating
lust across the line, is not only favored
by natural conditions, but by the Can
adam bounty system. 1t appears thai
the Canadian government pays a bCun-
ty Of 81 a ton for iron smelted in Can.
ada, and SO a ton for steel made in tiht
Dominion. This bounty is paid by
the Canadian people to Yankee con
Germ which has located on British soil

Joys similar advantages in this coun.

nues. a portion of the peoples taxes

1t means that a tribute is laid upor

"HsLp LADIES" ORGANIZE.

Seine one who discreetly coneeals his
identity has been organizing clubs OF
servant girls in the city, these clubs to
be consolidated when the work is fin
ished, into a 'help lady's union
Instead Of graduating the wage
schedule according 10 the capabilities
of the servant, it is to be adjusted
with reference to the number of per-
sons in the family. In view of the fact
that few girls who seek domestic en-
ployment are able to cook a meal or
to even wash dishes properly, the un-
fairness of the proposed wage regula
ton is destined 10 bring the orGaniza-
ton into early and lasting disrepute.
1t is hard to understand what the
servant girl is after, anyhow. Her au-
thority in the household has never been
questioned. Fer power in the premi-
SEES is undisputed. She has been ira
ditionsl tyrant to the young wife and a
source of constant anxiety to the ma
turer rnatron. Singiy and alone she
has held her own. without the aid of
an organization to encourage her indie
pendence of character, or support her
when she is not otherwise engaged, the
hired girl has always exercised an ar
bitrsry sway in household affairs. No
one has ever doubted her ability to
strike. with or without cause, to fix
her own wages, designate her days off
and select her holiday attire from the
wardrobe Of her mistress. Disagreeable
as these things apDear at times thew
have long since been accepted as mat
tiers of course by resigned housewives.
And now to think that the hired girl
signs for more power! We trust there
are other worlds for her TO conquer.
