Tonopah bonanza. [volume] (Butler City [i.e. Butler], Nev.) 1901-1909, 1902-01-11

Mr.. Schwab's attack upon labor
unions was i'll timed as it was illog-
ical and untrue. And inasmuch as
Schwab himself has worked his way
up from the ranks, and therefore
must have for a considerable period
profted by the good wages insured to
iron workers through unionism. it is
particularly unkind in him to come
forward at this jmcture and denomce
the very bridge that carried him
safely over trying portion of his
life, He was well and ably answered,
however, by Mark Hanna and later
by Frank Sargent, who is at the head
of one of the strongest and most con
servatlve unions in the country 1t
is late in the day for any intelligent
man to denounce the principle of
trades nnionism, and it is parti-
cularly ntimely to do so when the
very object of the gathering at which
the denunciation was made was to
bring about better relations between
labor and capital. To have such
new capitalist as Schwab take
ground against unions per sc was not
good beginning. However. he was
handsomely answered.

A Wise Purchase.

Alaska has paid for itself and proved
a wise and judicious investment The
bureau of statistics estimates the pres.
ent value of the market which it offers
to the producers and manufacturers OF
the United States at million dollars a
month Little is known of this bit OF
land way to the north over which our
government exercises sovereignty, and
because of the lack of this knowledge a
wrong impression exists. Alaska is far
from being barren and unproductive
waste. AS the interior has been explor-
ed and experiments made it has been
found that the climate and soil are es-
pecially we'll adapted to the raising of
vegetables, and not untitled to the rails
ing of wheat and oats. This is especial
ly true of the south and southeast, where
the climate is modified by the warm
Japan current. The Importance of this
is chiefly found in the fact that it will
furnish a large part of the food stuff for
the people which has heretofore been
imported. The grasses for the support
of live stock are abundant and the ex-
periments in the raising of stock demon
strate that it can be made most useful
and profitable source of revenue.
The value of Alaska as fishing mar
ket for salmon has always been known.
American capital is back of this and
some twenty-five millions of dollars are
invested. The value of these plants,
including vessels, is about twelve
million dollars. Great investments have
been made in mining, and the great
quartz mill in Juneau is the largest in
the world.
Alaska is no longer inaccessible. 1t is
but three days journey from Seattle
to Skagway, and from there railways
reach to the headwaters of the Yukon,
where boats take one to the great gold
fields of the interior. The country was
purchased from Russia for $1,000, 900.
1t has turned back into the government
over $9,000,000, paying for itself and
leaving a nice balance on the right side
The purchasers were wise. Their wis
lom has been demonstrated Yet they

lenders of American rule in the Philip
oines are meeting with opposition to-

Our Annual Liquor Bill.

For the first time, the census of 1906
attempted to secure distinct figures con.
corning the manufacture of alcoholic
liquors in the United States. As re.
CARDS the values given, the figures are
not entirely satisfactory. because in
some cases they include the internal
revenue tax, and in others do not; nor
is it possible to ascertain accurately,
from the report, to what extent the tax
is included in the values.
The total value of the property-not
the capital stock-employed in the pro-
duction of all kinds of liquors in the
United States in the year 1900, is set
down at S457674,0S7, while the total
value of the product-malt, spirituous
and vinous-was $40, G15, 466 OF this
total, malt liquors produced by far the
largest share, the total being 1,19S, 500,
104 gallons, as compared with 103,3 $50,
423 gallons of spirituous and 23,425, 567
gallons of vinous liquors.
These figures are of the production for
the year, not the consumption for of
the spirituous liquors produced much
went into government warehouses, and
the exports are also to be deducted
Still, taking one year with another,
and figuring in the imports of foreign
liquors, the total annual consumption is
not very far below the total annual pro-
duction. In the same year the total
consumption was 1922, 16G, 6S5 gallons
In other words the American people in
that year drank an average of 17.3
gallons per capita. OF this 1871 gallons
was of malt liquors-that is, beer, ale,
ETC.; 1.2 gallons of whisky, brandy and
other spirituous liquors, and less than a
half gallon of wine.
The total values arrived at by the
census report are somewhat untrust-
worthy, for the reason previously given.
The figures are 1897, 300, 713 worth of
malt liquors. 800, 79S, 443 of spirits, and
SO, SAT, 80 of wines. If we deduct from
the spirit production the value of alco-
hol consumed in the arts, it is still
evident that the American people pay a
tremendous tribute to the liquor
interests of the country-a tax which is
none the less burdensome, none the less
injurious, because of the fact that it is
voluntary. Toledo Blade.
