MINES TO OOPEN MONDAY
The Union Accepts the Scale of Wages
Promulgated by the New
Management. ..-.-...-
AN INCREASED OUTPUT
Miners and Business Men Greatly Elated
Over the Satisfactory Settlement.
The New Schedule.

A new schedule of wages has been
prepared for the Rocky Fork coal mines
by Vice President B. Il. Bush and sub
mitted to the union and by them accept
cd as emincntly satisfactory and fair in
its provisions. AS a result the Rocky
Fork coal mines will start UP full blast
next Monday and the merry music of
pick and drill will rcsound and rcvcrbcr-
ate from the depths of the earth as the
mines daily increase their output, until
ZOO brawny arms swing IN sympony to
the grand diaphason Of sound which is
produced by the coal miners in the
subtcrranem depths Of mother earth.
The schedule as adopted provides for
the highest wages which arc paid any
where in the west. a great deal of
trouble has existed III The past year in
operating the machines in the rooms, the
miners claiming that They were i'll reality
a dctriment in getting out the coal. and
tho company, to operate them success
fully, found it necessary to make a dc
cided cut in wages. Thc present com
pany, however, has decided to abandon
thr l1sc of thc machines i'll all but thc
entries Of the mine and will employ only

{ ROAD SUPER YlS0Rs.
Synopsis Of Their Duties as Provided by
Law.

In answer to an inquiry from the
country, The Picket prints the following
provisions of the law relating to the
duties of road supervisors:
The supervisor must give bond Of
$500, and take an oath to discharge his
duties according to law This must be
filed on the first day of May following
the election. Should this bond. which
must have two suretics. be forfeited. the
money accruing by the forfeiture goes to
the road fund. The county commits
sioners will appoint in case of vacancy
for any reason and the person so appoint
ed shall serve. until the next election. A
compensation of 50 per day is allowed
by law, with proportionate pay for over
time. The five principal duties of the
supervisor are enumerated by the law as
follows: First Take charge of all high
ways within their respective districts.
Second-Keep them clear of distractions
and in good repair. Third Cause banks
to be graded, bridges and causeways to
be made where necessary and to keep
the same in good repair, and renew them

year.
Protect Our Food.

The doctors inform US that alum is
poison. and that alum baking powders
should be avoided because they make
the food unwholesome. Prominent hy-
gienists, who have given the matter most
study regard these powders as an evil
that should be suppressed by state ac-
ton. In Minnesota and Wisconsin alum
powders are not permitted to be sold
unless they are branded to warn con
sumeis of their true character, while in
the District of Columbia the authorities
have under the direction OF Congress,
adopted regulations to prohibit the use
Of alum IN bread altogether.
Are not the people Of other states, as
we'll az those Ut Minnesota and Wiscon-
sin, entitled to warning Of a danger
which is apparently menacing them ut
close hand, and is not the whole country
entitled to absolute protection, ~ thr
people OF the District Of Columbia arc
protected, by legislation which IL entirely

rooms, which are to bc fitted up with d
double track and Il McGinty for each
room, instead Of having one McG;int,
to supply two rooms, as has been the
custom heretofore. The statement i
made that this will make an increase in
wages equal To ten To fifteen cents per
ton.
Vice President Bush Oh being inter.
viewed by The Picket concerning the
adoption Of the new schedule, gave the
following statement for publication:
''Thc wages under the new schedule
comprise the maximum amount paid to
coal minors in any of the coal camps OF
which ! have knoWledge. Indeed, they
exceed IA many instances the wages
which rule in other camps. Tracklaycrs
and timbermcn are paid but $50 per
day elsewhere, while our schedule allows
50: helpers have am advance of u quarter
81 q dollar rer day and mule drivers Il
like advance while the price paid for
i'iill1hS 'o'l - q SulJ9iallIlal increase
from the ruling price. The union would
have liked to have sccn the price for
common outside labor put at 30 but
when everything is taken into con4idcra
tion it will be seen that the company has
been generous in even this item, as they
pay s2.2o for this work, whereas the
highest price paid elsewhere il only -
or course We must meet the prices of
our competitors n the coal business. If
We expect to find L market for our coal
and To do 50 We arc compelled to pay our
miners somewhere near the wages that
govern in other camps. In prOmulgatng
the scale Of wages ii was not my intention
to deal unfairly with the union or to do
any injustice to any Of the employees of
the company. We have adopted d very
liberal scale of wages and | believe il
meets with general approbaton.
Some people may think that because
the Northern Pacific railroad has ac=
quired control of these coal mines that
therefore the product is to be confined
entirely to the demands of the Northern
Pacific for coal. but such is not the case.
If it had been so | would not have come
here to operate the mines. We intend
to reach out both east and west for com
mercial business in the coal industry
until we have built up trade commen-

comings we crave the indulgence Of Il

Our new printing plant is the best
money can buy. It is marvel ia mod

in the west. The entire outfit, brand
new and bright as dollar, is now fully
installed in the Davis brick block ad
joining the postottice, and a cordial invi
tation is extended to all to call and watch
our monster po yer presses in operation

That The Picket now has the very best

entire state cannot be successfully CON
trovcrted. Our type is all new and our
job faces are the latest and best in the
