THE SOCIALIST SIDE.

To the Editor of The Republican, Sir: In The Republican of August 21 there is an article from one A. H. Dar- row disputing the statistics a. quote by a socialist in a discussion in the court house plaza. The socialist sta,ed that the wage earners received but fourteen per cent of the value of the product of their labor in wages. Illustrating the boot and shoe manufacturing business. but the writer. A. II. DarroW. denies this and by stretch of imaginatir h. assumes the statistics to be false Now what is desirable and only worth striv- ing for is the truth of the question. The only way to ascertain this is to find the aggregate value of the retail price of the manufactured product of labor. for it is the purchasing power of wages that determina the percentage that the wage earners get. The retail price of the manufactured product of labor is Sl4.Oll.7 .736; dividing this by

MINING IN SONORA
Good Opportunities For the Invest
 ment of Capital.

The mining interests of Sonora are idenced by the output Of gold and sil- yer for 1899, which amounted to sever al millions of liars. This has s,imu- lated many American miners ;o come here, says a correspondent in the l.. A. Mining Review. expecting to find work in the mines. only to be disappointed and wander over the country until they go broke" get disgusted, and finally return ured against .he coun- try and all it's interests.
 This is where the mistake is made No American can come here ana com pete with the MeXicans as laborers.

 Skilled w-rkmen. such as engineers. millmen and amalgamators. usually find work, but common miners. even if th " worked for Mexican wages. would seldom get work. An American who comes here should make his own work. he should aim to be an employer. in stead of an employe. For such men and for capital there are many god openings in the mining business. Gold silver and copper are found in every mining district in the state and compar- atiVelY little has been done todevelop any If them. The country is almos. virgin as far as modern mining mesh- ods are concerned: the facilities are equal 10 other new countries. and n many instances very much better. Many new discoveries are being made by intelligent prospectors. and many new and old mines ar- being opened up with the most nattering prospects. while the established mines are con stantIy exporting rich ore or putting out bullion. When capital and intel igencc are direct q tO the mining in- dustry here. there will be abundant success and a great future for the state of Sonora.

In other words each worker pro- duced about $1055 per work day and re- ceived about $l.42 per day as wages. But as the average annual earnings of the shoe workers is $455 they get a fraction less than fourteen per cent. MT. Editor.

NEWS OF IRON SPRINGS

Iron Springs, Ariz., Sept. 5.-(SpeciaI correspondence of the Repubican)- The season at Iron Springs is rapidly nearing a close. X passenger attached to th= regular freight carried home about thirty-five campers last Thurs day, and fully twice that many will avail themselves of a similar opportu- nifty this week while almost every south-bOund train carries one or more returning Phoenician. The people still throng to the passing trains, not so much 10 welcome new arrivals as to bid farewell to the deserters. The Indian boys returned last night and We no longer enjoy their sweet music. which has added so much to the pleasures of the summer.
 Despite the threatening clouds and occasional showers. the regular ser vices were held yesterday and wera well attended. As this was the closing meeting of the Union Sunday school it was voted tO contribute the money rais-d to the Crittenton Home in Phoe- nix. Supt Cawan being absent. Mir. Sykes filled the vacancy. At o'clock Dr. McAfee preached upon the theme Strange Things" taking for his text part of Luke V. 26. We have se n strange things today" and at 7:3O pr. Norton conducted a farwell service of prayer and praise.
 Last Thursday night Mrs. l.. L. Plank entertained a few of the young people a pinoch- l.arty. In honor of her niece. Miss Jessie Sibley. who was spending a few days at the springs. The candy was excellent. the fun abun- dant. and the guests parted voting Mrs. Plank a most charming h stass.
 Judge Armstrong and family. Prof. LamsOn and family. Misses Minnie Ward, Edith Brooks and Susie Leonard leave on tonight's train for Phoenix.
 Pcnicing at Granite dens is a favo- rite pastime and three picnic parties have resorted thi,her during the past week.
 All who break camp and leave Iron Springs are unanimous in sounding its praises and in determining to return earlier next year f. possible To this common verdict not one dissenting voice has been heard. and instead of fearing that Iron Springs may not be q success 1t is feared that the crowd may be so grea. another year that all cannot be accommodated. The club have employed Mr. Al Hawlcy tp care for thsir property during the winter and make improvements. so that the place will be more attractive than be fore.
