Laborers Demand d Reduction in Hours
and Quit Resumed Work the
Next Day.

The construction Of the city water
works was begun in earnest during the
past week and will be pushed forward
with all possible vigor until the system
shall be all completed and duly installed.
Under the supervision ct w. Il. Gregg,
the engineer III charge Of the work,
ground was broken Tuesday for the lay
ing Of the cightinch pipe which will Icon
duet the water to the city. a force Of
several workingmcn are already employed
i'll cxcavating the main trench, and bc-
fore another week the engineer expects
to have employed between fifty and sixty
men upon tile work.
The going wages paid the men is $50
pcr day Of ten hours, excellent wages for
this class at work in amy country, but
some of the men imagined that they
should bc paid $50 for eight hours and
got their fellow laborcrs to consent to 4
strike for that amount. Accordingly
last Monday when Engineer Gregg ar

rived on the scene and began u direct
the operations of the men, a committee
stepped out from the ranks and coOlly
informed him Of their demands, saying
that the work was being done for the
city and that eight hours constituted u
days work when employed on city work.
Mr.. Gregg informed them that he repre-
sentcd a gentleman who had taken a
contract to put the water works in and
that the city had nothing whatever to
do with the work. He said he had Of
fcrcd liberal wages for a days work, but
as there was an unWilingness on their
part to accept the wages. they could all
90 and work would cease until other ar
rangcments could be made. That ended
work for that day but when the men
came to consider the matter and became
satisfied that s2,5O was all that would be
paid for ten hours labor, the situation
took on a different aspect and they have
since concluded to accept the terms Of

SPECIAL COUNCIL MEETING.
Ed O!cott and Oscar Granstrom Give Bonds
for Faithful Performance OF Duties.

a special meeting of the city council
was held at the council chamber Monday
night in response to a call of the mayor
to take action in some matters connected
with the construction of the water works
and to accept bonds Of officers elected
at the spring election. Clerk Bailey
called the roll and Mayor Larkin and the
following aldermen answered to their
names: Austin, Davis, Flager. Willy and
FREEMAN.
The official bond Of Oscar Granstrom
as police magistrate in the sum of 500,
with Samuel Elmen and Albert Budas
as sureties, was accepted and filed.
The official bond of Edward Olcott as
city treasurer in the sum Of $1,000. with
B. E. Vail, w. A. Talmage and j. \.
Rose as sureties, was accepted and filed.
The city clerk was also instructed to
draw up an ordinance increasing the
amount of bonds required Of the city
treasurer and submit it to the council at
the regular meeting next Tuesday even
ing. The council thought it proper to
require larger amount of the city
treasurer because of large sums of money
which will pass through his hands this
year in the construction of the city water
works.
The official oaths Of Office Of Anil Ro-
mersa, NJ. II. Lucas and A. E. Flager,
the recently elected aldermen, were pro-
duced and showed that these gentlemen

PRICES Of'WOOI..
Territory Brings From Is to % Cents
Little Activity

The American Wool and Cotton Re
porter says. in its last issue:
There has been less activity in terri
tory woods. What inquiry there is to be
noted has run more to the medium
grades, although at the close of the week
covered by this rcvieW there are indica
tions of slightly better inquiry for the
finer wools Most of the business done
appears to have been within the range OF
16 to DE. For fine and fine medium
clothing. clean. 50 to DC is a fair quota
ton. according to what it is. Staple
woods are held at ti)c. although clips
running pretty we'll to staple can be OBJ
tanned at JSc. But for choice selected
staple, some holders are asking more
instances to G3 and Coo. Some selected
staple woods have actually sold for more
than Goo. G3c. being named as the price
realized.
Among the sales of the week may be
noted 10000 pounds territory at prices
ranging from 16 to dc for fine and fine
medium clothing, equivalent to 55c.,
clean, the wool containing some staple;
100000 pounds at Is to 23c., and mod
crate amount Of early shorn wool on
private terms. Shearing is progressing
now in some sections of Utah. in Wyom-

4 GREAT COPPER CAMP
Kirwin at the Head Waters of Wood
River, Destined to Become Great
Mineral Producer.
A RAILROAD is NEEDED
The Burlington Expected to Build That
WAY on Its Route to the National
Park.

There is a little mining campabout $50
waters of the Wood river in Wyoming.
that is destined at no distant date
to become second Butte in the
production of the precious metals.
Reference is had in this connec
ton to the camp of Kirwin, which, al
though but little prospected at present,
has demonstrated that it contains I'M
mense bodies Of gold silver and lead
ores. But these ores, although rich as
are the veins, do not constitute the only
nor the greatest source Of the camps
future greatness Copper " The predom-
mating ore Of the camp and the bodies
Of this ore are SO extensive as to leave
10 question Of doubt as to the future
outcome of the camp. The only thing
that kirWin lacks to blossom out into
prominence as a producer Of great min
eral wealth is railroad transportation. At
present It's nearest railroad cOmmunca-
tion is Red Lodge, $50 miles distant, but
with the completion of the Toluca- Cody
branch Of the Burlington, this distance
is reduced at least one half, yet there is
only now and then vein Of ore that will
pay freight charges Of from S25 to $50
per ton for shipment to a railroad, and
the heavy freight charges would practi-
cally eat up all the profits in transporting
fur
The proposed extension of the Burling
ton & Missouri to Cody, however, and
it's subsequent continuance on to the
National Park gives the prospectors and
miners of Kirwin high hopes of the Bur
lington reaching their camp before long
and thus giving them an outlet for their
ore. They have the greatest confidence
that the influence Of George w. Hold
regc, general manager of the Burlington.
who is heavily Interested in some of the
most promising prospects of the camp,
will be sufficient to have the road built
via Kirwin, and that very shortly, too,
At any rate, great faith in the future
of the camp is shown by George Flat
man. who is quite extensively interested
in the camp, and who recently bonded a
group of nine claims to the Wood River
Mining syndicate. Mr.. Flatman arrived
in the city last Saturday from Peoria,
ILL.,, where he spent the winter. He goes
out to KirWin to superintend work for
the company during the coming sum
mer. Work is being prosecuted by the
Wood River Mining syndicate on the
Matte B, a 4OC-foot tunnel having been
driven on this property and 100 feet Of
crosscuts run. The ore body is five feet
thick in places and runs as high as $500
per ton. Besides the Matte B, the
group of claims bonded by this company
consist Of the Molly Logan, Aggie p,
Flora j, Verna May, Zazclle, Amazon
and Minnie May Mr.. Flatman was ac-
companied by his brother James and
Frank Andrews. whom he will conduct
to the camp in Wyoming and place at
work upon the property. There were
twenty five miners engaged upon the
Matte B last summer and a larger force
will be engaged this summer.
