Miners may Be Benefited

Eastern mining journals believe that
the transfer Of the controlling interest
in the Southern Pacific company to
the Union Pacific will result III good to
the coast miners. This idea is basted
on The past policy Of the Union Pacific
There are certainly many grievances
of which the miners of Nevada have
complained when dealing with the
Southern Pacific company. Claims
have been abandoned because the
owners thereof could not afford to pay
freights imposed upon them. This is
an old story of Nevada, but may be
new enough to the Union Pacific man
agement to carry to 1t a hint that the
conditions Of the past can be greatly
improved, and TO the advantage of both
the mining interest and the transpor-
tatlon lines. For instance. the Engi-
neering and Mining Journal, published
in New York. taking a long-distance
view Of the miners under the new re-
gime, says:
1.-The Union Pacific people have
usually shown a disposition to encour-
age the interests tributary to their road.
1t Is to be hoped that the narrow pol
icy Of looking only to immediate profit
and exacting the highest possible rate
which the Southern Pacific company
has p~ersistently followed under the
Huntington management-will now be
abandoned for a more liberal and far
sighted plan."
In this wish there will be no excep-
tons among the miners Of the Pacific
coast.

TUESDAY ~..MARcH -, 1901
HIGH SCHOOL
ENTERTAINMENT.

The students OF the WadSWorth nigh
school gave an entertainment in the
Assembly Hall Saturday evening which
was largely attended. The program
was very interesting throughout and
reflects great credit on the sholars and
teachers, for the able name In which
they carried out their parts. The first
number was a piano duet by the Misses
Donelin and York which was we'll rem
dered.
Number two was a defamation by
Percy Kinney, entitled Wounded. a
very difficult piece to recite. which the
young man rendered in nice style.
Number three was vocal solo by
Frank Allen, entitled Indeed
Frank has a sweet voice and the aud
fence enjoyed his effort very much.
Number four was select reading by
Miss Annie Crosby. Her subject was
an interesting one and was listened to
attentiyely by the audience.
Number five, Chorus by the High
School, entitled Come Merry Comrades
All, was very good and proved that the
pupils Of the High School are all good
vocalists.
Number six, Debate. Resolved. that
the pen is mlghtier than the sword,
was ably defended by both sides and 1t
was a hard matter to decide which side
had the best of the argument.
Mary Murphy. and Chas. Bridges
took the affirmative side while, Lucy
Brannin, Clarence Esden and Thos.
McKenna took the negative.
Number seven, Sing me a song OF
the South. by Nellie Donelin and Clyde
Lewis was the gem Of the evening.
their voices blending in sweetest har-
mony that completely captured the
audience and they were compelled to
respond to the hearty encore which
they received.
Number eight. was to have been a
defamation by Edgar Butler who was
unavoidably absent. This number
was filled by Miss Mable McComber
who sang a beautiful ballad. The
young lady has a sweet voice and sang
in nice style.
Number nine, Farce, the Emanci-
pated Young Woman's Independent
Club was greatly enjoyed by those
present and good dramatic ability was
displayed by those who participated.
This farce was written by Mrs. M. F.
Doten of the Reno High School who
deserves great credit as an author of
dramas. The following young ladies'
and gentlemen took part In the farce.
Allan Wickland. Mable Evans, Win
Thrall. Mable McComber. Genevieve
Donelin. Mable Murray. Lena Day.
Frank Allen, Ed Givan. Clyde Lewis
and Nellie Donelin.
Laughter and applause greeted the act
ors t~hrougout the entire performance.
Space forbids special mention Of the
characters assumed.
Number ten was the last number a
two part song. Till we meet again.
Misses Murry. York. Donelin. Brannin.
Evans, Day, Donslin. McComber and
Masters Allen, Kinney and Lewis took
part and II was exquIsitely rendered.
The performance wound up with a
dance in which all were invited to par
ticipate. The dancers occupied the
floor until the wee sma hours. and all
went home feeling that they had spent
a very enjoyable evening.
We hope the High School will con-
tinue to give these entertainments
from time to time as they are greatly
appreciated by the people of Wads-
worth.

NAVAL STORES PRODUCERS.
They Are Dissatisfied with Their
Labor and other Things.

Eldrldge. Fla, July 31.-Editor Morn
ing News: l notice that many of the
nava! stores producers are writing to
your paper of the necessity of doing
something to remedy our labor trou-
bles, and suggesting that a meeting for
that purpose be held at an early day
at Jacksonville, or some other conven-
lent place. ] am heartily in accord
with this movement for a meeting.

work more than half time. and it Is
about impossible to get one of them

your correspondents have said, the ne

TO buy a few cheap clothes and lit
tie whisky and tobacco. l got along
great deal better when wages were
much lower than they are now, and
got better work out of the negroes. A
great many of the negroes will not

In that time they make all the money
they need to supply their wants.
negro who can be depended upon for
two days work week is regarded now
as among the best of the hands upon
the naval stores farms. The truth is
we naval stores producers cannot
stand this sort of thing. We are not
making any money, and the way
things are going on all the trees will
soon be boxed and the naval stores in
dustry will peter out. We producers
will be no better off when that condi-
ton of affairs is reached than we are
now. / find now that nine tenths of
the naval stores producers are carry
ing from $500 to $1,000 on their books
for stuff on which they are paying in
terest, and which they are letting the
negroes have on the promise of work,
but the promise in most instances is
not kept. AS a result, the producers
are meeting with serious losses. Let
us have a meeting by all means, and
see If something cannot be done to put
the producers in a better position. At
present we are accomplishing nothing
for ourselves. And let the factors join
with us. Their prosperity depends In
a measure on our prosperity.

The Clyde Steamship Line people at
Jacksonville are expecting the second
new ship of the line to arrive Monday.
The Apache came about a month ago,
and now comes the Arapahoe. just
completed in the yards of the Cramps,
near Philadelphia. She arrived in New
York last Saturday, ana attracted
much attention. and many people Wis
tied her and inspected her magnificent
proportions. She will leave New York
to-day for Jacksonville, and will be a
regular boat on the New York and
Jacksonville line. The Arapahoe is a
sister ship of the Apache. and is $40
feet long. 46 feet wide and 81 feet deep,
with a speed of Is knots and capacity
for 1900 tons OF cargo. Her accommo-
dations for over two hundred passen-
gers are entirely above the upper deck.

TAMPA.s RAPID GROWTH.

Tampa seems to be making a very
satisfactory growth, as is shown by
the partially completed sanitary CEN
sus. Up to the present time the sani-
tary enumerators have seen more than
1927 people, and the work is by no
means completed. They are only work
inP within the city limits proper and
taking nothing in the suburbs. This
showing. although uncompleted, is
four thousand greater than the govern
ment census, and shows two thousand
more people than the directory gave
when IL was published six months ago.
The census shows that the town has
either grown wonderfully or the other
census was something of fake.

pre- ttiest weddings that ever occurred
in this place, came off at the Methodist

as ushers.

FROM WATER FRONT
DREDGING OPERATIONS STARTED
ON HUTCHINsON's ISLAND.
SLIP TO GO BACK 500 FEET.
OBJECT OF EXTENSION TO EN-
LARGE THE ROsIN YARDS.

DREDGING TO BE Done in Front of the
Dry Dock at Port Royal by Dredge
No. 57-Tug Raymond Brings
Lighters From Observation-Disclosures
of Interest to shippers and Mari
ners.
The contractors who will dredge Sea-
board Air Line slip No. back 500 feet
farther into the island commenced their
operations yesterday. and will push the
work to an early completion. They will
be able to do this with the large sue
ton dredge that will be used, and
which has a capacity for work that
enables it to plow it's way rapidly
through the land.
The Babcock-Lary Dredging Com
pany are to dig this extension. The
pipes to convey the earth from the riv-
er to- the island were drifted into the
slip during the day and put in their
proper position.
Operations of this kind require both
a large land and dredge force. The
dredge force. of course, contine their
operations entirely on 1t, and have
nothing to do with the mud after 1t Is
once excavated. Floyd e. Co, are the
land contractors, their duties being to
bank up the dumpings properly and in
accordance with plans for the preser-
walton of the terminal property from
overfiows and storms. The firm sent
over a gang of laborers, and also all
necessary tools. wheel barrows and
other things needed in carrying out
their mart of the contract
The Seaboard is making the extern
sion of this slip to provide for the large
demand for room from the naval stores
interests. The frightening will not only
provide additional berth room for yes
sells to load, but it will also enlarge the
room for the storing of supplies on that
side. The engagements to be made will
greatly please those interested. The
improvements will not require a great
deal of time.
Dredge No. 81, owned by p. Sanford
Ross of this city, coaled at Taggart d
Co.'S wharves yesterday, preparatory
for her trip to Port Royal, where a
large dredging contract is to be un-
dertaken. The dredging will be in front
OF the Port Royal dry dock. This work
was undertaken some time ago by the
Atlantic, Pacific and Gulf Dredging
Company.
The tug Raymond returned from
Brunswick yesterday with three barges
belonging to the Savannah Lighterage
and Transfer Company, and after de-
livering them started on her return to
Brunswick.
The tug Huntress, owned by Paschal
