Before these two a memorial was

Offered them by him Saturday morning
through NJ. II. Morrill, of this city, who
was appointed a.committee of one by the
Citizens alliance to get both sides to-
gether. He was successful and every
thing was very harmonious at the works
to-day. Union men are working with
non-union men as il the difficulties had
never existed. The non-union men will
later be asked to join the union, to
which there will be no objection.
The agreement has not been avictory
for either side, but is the result of con-
cessions on both SIDES.
Following is the scale of wages and
hours under which the smelters opened
this afternoon. Common laborers, 9l.75

wheelers, 50 for eight hours work; fur
mace men, 81 80 for eight hours work;
helpers 1928 for eight hours work; en-
gineers, s275 for twelve hours: firemen,
50 for eight hours. There is no written
agreement between the two parties con-
cerning these wages, but they were ac-
cepted by the smeltermen from the
management.
The merchants and people of Golden
are greatly pleased to see the works re-
sumo and will give it their hearty sup
port. 1t is now believed that operations
will be permanent at the smelter. The
company has signifed its intention of
building a refinery at once, which will
make it independent OF the trust.
