MANY THOUSANDS OF MEN IDLE
IDLENEss Will CONTINUE UNTIL
THE BOATS BEGIN CARRY
ts ING. ORE.

Duluth, May 10.--The announcement
that all negotiations have been broken
OF between the Lake Carriers and the
Masters and Pilots, associations, and
that an indefinite, period may elapse
before their dispute is settled, is a Sc
rious blow to this section, following on
the heels of the latest navigation sea-
son in more than quarter Of CEN
fury.
The mere fact that the boats are to
be held up and the crews will not be
employed is a matter Of small conse-
quence compared to the thousands of
men and the scores of mines that will
he idle pending the adjustment. The
prospect is that the vessel owners and
the masters and mates are going to
Have Battle Royal
and settle for years to come questions
that have been held in allegiance. or
which have been compromised in the,
past. M
Every iron mine at Ely on the Yer.
million range is idle and will continue
so until the boats begin conveying
ore. The stock piles are filed to the
capacity of room allotted to them, and
there is nothing more to do until the
stocks can be reduced by shipping to
the ore docks. The ore docks are not
designed to hold great quantities in
store, and even IL the pockets were all
filled at Duluth, Two Harbors and AL
louez bay. it would give little relief.
Five great mines in Ely alone await
the movement of ore before they shall
resume hoisting again. and now that a
Tie-Up of the Lake Fleets
is assured, a feeling of discoura cement
is experienced there and at other min
ing towns, as well as in Duluth. for
these towns are all tributary to this
city. What is true Of the Vermillion is
true of the Mesaba range, and in
greater degree. for there are vastly
more towns and mines affected. Some
of the big steam shovel mines. among
them the Mahoning at Hibbing. were
to begin shipping this week. Now
there is nothing for them to do but
wait for the big boats to move.
When there is plenty Of stockpile
room, underground mines can keep
right on producing in the event of in.
terruption to the shipping, but the
steam shovel properties. the largest
shippers of all, /
Are Immediately Affected
and have to stopas soon as the boats
quit moving, as they load on direct from
the mine to cars.
It has been announced that the Lum-
Der Carriers association has made it's
peace with the masters and mates, but
the end is not yet: They have yet to
make their peace with the longshore-
men, and the prospects are not promis-
ing for an immediate settlement.
This hattie will be fought out in Du-
luth, unless one side: Y or the other
should unexpectedly make concession.

Of interest to many Of our readers:
The northwestern part Of Colorado
belongs to Green river drainage basin.
although the main stream has but
short course In the state. No irriga-
ton from Green river direct was re-
ported In 1902.
THE principal Colorado tributaries
to the Green are the Yampa and
White rivers. These drain irrigable
areas Of great extent which ultimately
may b brought under cultivation by
the colmtruction of large irrigation
works. The development Of this part
OF Colorado, which is naturally rich
In mineral and agricultural resources,
has besn greatly retarded by Its iso-
lation from transportation facilities.
I'm 1901, the acreage irrigated from
all sources in this basin was 81, 45l
acres, representing 1902 farms. The
1917 systems had 1893 miles Of main
canals and bitches and the construc-
ton cost was 1885,, 1876, or $4.84 per ir-
