MINING NE WIS.
1. L. MERRILL,

With a deep and profound disgust for toadyism, the mining department of The Review feels cheerfully inclined to pass a compliment upon I. l.. Mer- Til, superintendent of the Calumet x Arizona company.
 Just day before yesterday, we hau occasion 70 take a friend over the ia vorite route from the Czar to Lne Pittsburg
 At the office our friend was introduc- ed to the superintendent, who extend ed every conceivable courtesy to his visitors. A few minutes later. after carefully contemplating the immensity of the work embraced in the Calumet & Arizona system, our friend asked who the general superintendent of all this splendid work happened to be. He was told that it was the plain and affable gentleman to whom he had just been introduced, and could hardly believe it. He was expecting to see a brass collar magnate with eye ''glaws- es' and a look as wise as a pig-a root in" but he was fooled. ouch a man is Mr. Merrill who has conducted the affairs of the Calumet & Arizona to its present splendid status in the mining world. A gentleman as kindly and ap- proachable as farmer, yet possessed Of the skill and experience which is necessary to superintend operations involving millions of dollars every year. He has, moreover, been ever mindful of the rights and feelings of the workingmen in his employ, and if his successor follow in his path, labor Will never have occasion to organize against their aggressions. Superinten- dent Merrill will leave Bisbee with the profound respect and sincere re- gard of all who happen to be acquaint- ed with his genial personality and his honest methods.

Colorado Springs Dynamite Plot.

Colorado Springs. Colo. July s.
About . o'clock this morning the en-
ployes at the power house of the Colo
RADIO Springs Electric Company, four
miles north of this city, felt a terrific
concussion and at the same time twen-
ty panes of glass in the north or rear
wall of the building were shattered as
at one blow. The explosion was heard
for mile around and caused intense
excitement. One of the engineers
rushed and discovered a small fire
burning in the vacant lot few feet
distant from the north wall. Upon
stamping it out he found that the ma
terial was made of the paper surround
ing dynamite sticks.
A hasty investigation revealed moth
ing further until daylight, when Gen
eral Manager George b. Tripp and the
chief engineer having been communi-
Gated with. thorough search was in
stituted Scattered within radius of
200 feet about the vacant lot north OF
the wall were broken and entire sticks
of dynamite. which. when put together,
aDproXimated seventy-fve pounds.
There were $50 sticks in all, each being
one and one-half inches in size.

their demands for an eight-hour day.
This plan was adopted after the re-
fusal of Manager Guiterman to confer
with the members of the union and his
subsequent departure for Pueblo.
There was no hint of trouble up to
the time the men walked out. After
persuading the 300 men at the Omaha
and Grant Smelter to strike the mem
bers of the union and the employees
joined forces and went to the Globe
smelter. President Meyer of the West
ern Federation of Miners was apprised
of the trouble and got up out of bed
and went to the Globe smelter.
After leaving the Grant smelter
the men who We're agitating the strike,
together with the sympathizers. whom
they had gathered at the Grant sn.elter
marched in a body to the Globe. AT
9 o'clock this morning they were at
work at the latter place endeavoring
to induce the employees to quit work
They succeeded after a few minutes

The loss which will be sustained by
the smelling company will be very Sc

persuaded about 800 employees to walk

Mr.. Livingston called up police head
quarters and Captain Lee with ten
