COAL OPERATORS
WILL REMAIN FIRM


The coal operators were in confer
cnce yesterday discussing the many
discrepancies in the statement issued
by the coal miners through their com
mitteos. The operators hardly feel
like rushing into print and at the
same time consented to talk concern
Ing some OF the matters at issue. In
the first place they submitted the fol
lowing scale Of prices prevailing at
other points
c. +. 4 l. Co, which produces 10
per cent of all the coal mined In the
Rocky mountain district In their
southern field they pay s2.7O per day
of 10 hours.
Crested Butte, $2.s5, also ten hours
Gallup, $500 and oil.
For mining in south 30 cents for
400 pounds mot much powder ne
cessaryJ
Canon City. IS cents for 1000
pounds.
Al all the above places are com
pany stores and boarding houses and
The men are always in debt to the
| company. Here cash is paid and no
questions asked where the men shall
| spend their money. The companies
| above enumerated work ten hours per
day and from 30 TO 80 cents less is
paid Than is paid here for eight hours.
while many of the men working by
the ton in this district make consid-
erably more than So. The operators

Of So was not made in good faith is

mere wind Not miner has applied
for work on the SO day proposition.
signed and agreed to the sth OF May
So much Tor this claim.
The operators say further that they
will remain closed Tor all time before
| they will agree to :he new scale OF
the miners, which is out of all reason
| compared with other districts. They
viii pay 50 a day and that is the limit
This is virtually the ultimatum of the
operators. and Will result in the
mines being operated by uon.union
labor later on II the union men will
not accept SO day A
II is safe to say that 80 per cent
of the men would return to work to-
day II they We're not Influenced by the
leaders, Who always appear to be able
to co.trol the actions OF the majority.
ihc miners had few complaints to
make until the appearance of agita-
tors. and the operators are not going
to be forced out of business by al
lowing them to fix an arbitrary price
for labor under existing conditions,
especially when they are willing to
pay SO day. and II any of the min
ers think this is a blum. all they have
to do is to apply for work to be con
yinced otherwise.

WEEKLY CROP Bulletin.

DENVER, Colo. May 20, 1902.
The mean temperature has been 4
degrees or more warmer than the
seasonal average east of the Con
tinental Divide. In the western
counties the accumulated excess of
the week was Offset by much lower
during the closing days.
Moderately heavy showers have
been frequent over the greater part
of the northeastern quarter OF the
state, including the Platte
divide; elsewhere the precipitation
has been generally light, especially
in the southeastern counties and parts
OF the western slope.
A marked improvement has occur
ed in crop conditions over the areas
visited by precipitation. The soil
is in an excellent condition and work
is being pushed Corn planting is
about finished and the planting of
late potatoes about to begin: early
paintings are up and making salts
factory advancement. In the south
ern counties, where the precipitation
has been very light and scattered,
vegetation has made but little pro.
gress, grain is of an uneven stand.
ans considerable replanting of beets
has been necessary. The water sup
ply has been ample on the western
slope and there has been some i'm.
provement east OF the mountains
The ranges now afford good pastur
age except in the southern counties
There has been some local damage
by hail and frost.

Hunters Island Ore

Considerable excitement has been
caused by the discovery of iron ore
bodies on Hunters Island on the boun-
Diary between Minnesota and Ontario
and which tract has long been in dis
pute between the United States and
Canada. A party of explorers have gone
UP to the island with D. Buchanan and
w. w. Potter, of Chippewa Falls.
Messrs. Buchanan and Potter own
lands on Hunters island and a fine
outcrop of iron ore is said to have been
found there recently. Duluth men who
have examined the samples say they
certainly offer encouragement for fur
Their explorations.
1t has long been known that Hun
ter's island contained mineral, but
heretofore the explorations have been
principally for gold. Samples of rock
containing the precious metal have been
exhibited in Duluth, and prominent
mining men Of that city have seriously
considered operations on an extensive
scale with the hope of developing a
gold mine. 1t may turn out that the
island contains considerable iron ore.
Messrs. Buchanan and Potter are
said to be in a position to make a
thorough exploration of their property
to ascertain its mineral resources.

open Pit Mining To stay

One interesting fact brought out in
with the recent meeting OF
the Lake Superior Mining Institute on
the Mesaba and Vermillion ranges, is
the increasing employment of the open
pit method of mining on the Mesaba
range. 1t was thought, after the first
wave of enthusiasm OVEN steam shovel
mining, that possibly more economical
operations would have been possible, i'll
cases of heavy over burden, by sink
ing shafts instead of stripping. Expert.
ence has proven the economy of strip
ping even where the surface is con-
siderabfe deeper than on some prof.
critics where the propriety Of open-pit
mining was once called in question. Ex-
perienced operators on the new range
are now willing to remove even 100
feet of surface if there is thus uncov-
cred an ore body 100 feet thick 1t is
a matter of demonstration that as
against so to So cents ton for under
ground mining, stripping at 80 cents a
cubic yard and steam shovel mining
even at the highest rates yet shown
on the Mesaba cost sheets, shows a
considerable balance in it's favor An
other factor that is emphasized by the
labor scarcity now and then expert
enced is the flexibility of steam shovel
mining in the matter of output Under
ground mining requires a large force

To Paste In Your Hat

The hunting season for birds and
chickens is now on in full swing and
the bush is full of men and boys with
guns seeking the life of thegame fowl.
Partridges are exceptionally plentiful
this year and it is nothing uncom-
mon to see a full bag of this class Of
feathered game brought in by excep-
tionally poor nimrods. The duck is not
so plentiful, however, and those who
expect to secure them have made trips
to the Canadian boundary without sue
cess. In fact it is considered a little
early for the duck.
No material changes in the game
laws for birds and chickens have been
made for thisyear. but change was
made in the season for deer by add
ing several days to the list. Below will
be found a condensed table of sea-
sons for the various game. Paste this
in your hat for future reference.

breasted or sharp-tail grouse, Septem-

Chas. Riley, who was taken to Duluth
last week to await the action of the
grand jury and now mediates on the
ways that are crooked in the county
jails, claims he is abused and is try
ing to set himself up as a martyr.
To reporter he (piped) the following:
ISIS queer they didn't have me ar
rested before. They knew where l was
all the time and could have laid hands
on me if they had wanted to. 1 left
their employ and they knew 1 was
going to leave. Tom Weed, a brother
of Joe, and I had planned on going to
North Dakota, but Tom was taken sick
and I went to Hibbing. Winton people
saw me there and Wadsworth & Weed
knew all the time where 1 was. l have
always borne a good reputation, but
those fellows are tryin' to rub it in"
The last sentence is a particularly
good one. Riley is certainly a cheer
full store teller At the time of the
robbery af the saloon he was under
bonds to keep the peace for shooting
at a bartender in Clyde Ayrits' resort.
Just before this time a cash register
was touched" in town and circum-
stances pointed very strongley to the
No direct proof was at hanG
however. The strangest part of the
proceeding is that Riley should take
the woods route for Hibbing in his
innocense, when he might have ridden
the entire distance.

And They Also Ran.

One of the defeated candidates for
sheriff, or one af the friends of one of
the defeated candidates for sheriff. has
written a little parable on the late
contest for the Republican nomination
for this office, entitled THE Afterms
| of Thought on the Sheriff Scramble"
1t follows:
And 1T came to pass that ttine men
did want the snap that is called soft
in the sheriff's office, and each one did
have the nomination coming his way,
While the people did look on and Won
der who was it
"Armstead did have it solid, for did
not Hand Dworschak and Gordon
O'Neil control the labor union vote for
him? Burnett did own Proctorknott
and he could not lose. And for months
Johnny Meining had robbed George
Lucore's sample cases to give the
candy to the wives and sweethearts of
the horney-handed sons of toll, and he
had 1000 votes that could not get away.
While he that is called Sargent did
have in his string Bill Burgess, Don
McLennan and Ed Towne, and are not
they the whole thing?
And behold little man with bold
expansive brow, did look on and say
Rats! No man among them is strong.
will take it myself And he also did
file. And straightway the maker of
books who operates in the butcher
shop did give him a place with the
bunch And the little man sayeth unto
his friends. Put your money on me,
for verify 1 have the onley cinch.'
(Which translated into our language
means "a dead sure thiuP1 And the
fiends af the little man did stake
their hard earned sesterces upon him,
and now are they wondering when
that other think (Which they have COM
ing) will get to them.
"And Bill who is surnamed Butch
art, did smile, and he did saw much
wood by day, and by night he did chase
the festive Democrotic voters and say
unto them. Don't forget me on the
18th and of a surety they did not. And
behold when the day came the little
fellow who did file did cry aloud, Be
hold! I have the range! Watch my
smoke And when the swift runner
did bring in the vote from the range,
it was all cut UP and the largest chunk
did go to him that is called 'Healy.'
And the little fellow saw hard by a
large American tumble, and he took
it to himselfe saying, Next time will
get in the game earlier

Republican County Committee.

The republican county committee met
Monday evening at the st. Louis Ho-
tel in Duluth and transacted much
business. Sen. e. B. Hawkins had
rendered his resignation but the COM
mittee refused to accept tia very
wise move. His refusal was basen on
the fact that his labors on the ranges
would keep him too busy to give the
craftsmanship the attention it deserved.
In order to help him out however,
and give him SOMEBODY on whose Shout
ders the work can be left When he is
out of the city, an executive committee
of three was authorized, and A. p.
Cook was made it's chairman and per-
mitted to name his own committee.
He selected Otto Calvert, of West
Duluth, and T. F. Brady, Of Hibbing,
as the other members of the commit
tee.

Will Not Contest

Sheriff w. c. Sargent has decided
not to contest the nomination of w
w. Butchart. This decision was ar
rived at after a careful survey of the
situation by Mr. Sargent. A large num-
Der of friends lent their efforts towards
this decision. In a letter to friends
announcing his determination to drop
the contest, Mr.. Sargent says:
IT have been convinced, after care
full consideration, that for me to per-
severe in my contest for the nomina-
ton for sheriff would endanger the sue
cess of the Republican party at the NO
vember election, at least so far as the
office of sheriff is concerned. 1 am too
deeply indebted to the Republican
party TO do anything that would likely
injure it or its candidates. You will
therefore instruct Mr.. Neff, my attor-
ney, to drop the contest.
81 take this step simply for the good
of the party. not because I have
