THE coMsTocK LODE.

Contracts have been made for the
drainage of the lower levels OF the Com
stock mines, and extensive bodies of ore
may thus be made accessible. But. as
in the old days, the developments are
not likely to do the buyers OF stock much
good. The manipulators who control
the mines will contrive to get all the
profit, through fat contracts for milling
and in other well-known ways, leaving
the outsiders to pay assessments. says
the Sacramento Bee.
But as a result of the new era OF &C.
tivity now opening on the Comstock,
Virginia City is likely to have a revival
of business and to make substantial
gains in population, for a time at least.
Even the discovery of a new bonanza
is possible, for there are parts OF the
great lode, as yet unexplored, which
the drainage of the lower levels viii
permit to be prospected.

THE GOLDFIELD STRIKES.
Rush to the New Camp Will Send
Pr~nspect0rs Into Other Hills.

The Mining and Scientific Press says:
The reports of phenomenal strikes OF
gold in the new Goldfield district OF
Southern Nevada, whether accurate or
otherwise, will have the effect OF greatly
augmenting the population of that Sec
ton. In their eager desire to secure a
fortune in a day, as it were, handred
will rush to the newest FL Dorado, ar.
irving only to find that the country Is
staked for miles in every direction IN
the neiphborhood of the new camp; but
the stampede ctnnot fail to produce
beneficial results, as there are many
other hills in the southern end OF that
State which have been but slightly pros
pected. or not at all, and the probable
result will be other new and valuaDle
discoveries. It is an lmpertSaF TACT
that almost every hill n range rising
out of the sagsbrush-covered wastes OF
the great basin contain mineral deposits
which have a greater or less value, &C
cording to their situation as REGARDS
water and transportation faculties.
Railroads are building through that
region and water is being found by
shaft sinking, These WI important
factors being supplied. the remainder is
comparatively easy Of accomplishment,
for where the railroads go t4cl and
supplies may be taken readily and ote
nav be shipped out. though freight
charges are high. However, the ores
recently developed in that region seem
to indicate that they will stand a heavy
charge for transportation and reduction
aud leave a substantial profit besides.

Why TRUSTS ARE UNPOPULAR

San Francisco Journal of Commerce :
From the Rocky Mountains to the At
lantic people are finding a prime neces-
sary of life harder to get than usual.
This is not because a pestilence has
swept away food cattle. 1t is because q
few men and their few thousand EN-.
ployes have quarreled over the division
of the profits. Whether the so-called
Beef Trust be an unlawful agreement
or merely a common policy is i'm
material. The result is to put into the
hands of a few men such power over a
necessary Of life that when they and
their employees quarrel tens Of millions
find food harder to get. The existence
of such power-the requirement by a
few Of such dominion over the lives of
millions-is the cause of the popular re-
sentiment of Trusts and of the popular
demand for their control.

sTocKyARDs STRIKE CALLED OFF


The strike of the butcher workmen
in Chicago, which demoralized the
meat-packing industry throughout the
entire country, was officially declared
off at midnight Sept. s by President
Michael J. Donnelly of the Amalga-
mated Meat Cutters and Butcher Work
mems Union Of America. The strike OF
the members of the affiliated Unions at
the stock yards, who quit work In
sympathy with the butchers, was Of
hciajly called off the next day.
When the packers were notified that
IL uad been decided to end the strike.
they announced that they would give
places. as far as possible, to the skilled
iner. but il was stated at the same time
t!,tI lazy OF these men would be uu-
aple to secure their old places, as the
work was being performed satisfactorily
bv men who had been engaged since
the of the strike. 1t Is
expected that the majority OF the I'M
skilled men will be unable TO regain
their old positions. 1t was the question
of a wage scale-18K cents an hour
for this class of men that brought about
the strike, the packers refusing to sign
an agreement with any class other than
skilled workmen.
During the strike approximately 3d.
600 persons have been involved, and the
struggle is estimated to have cost the
men about 5000, 900 in wages, as
AGAINST an estimated loss of 81, SOC. 900 to
the packers in business and in increased
The greatest number of men
idle in Chicago during the strike was
pc. 600, and the total in the country out
aide of that city is estimated to have
been about the same number.
The men returned to work under the
conditions that existed before the strike.
