"Mill Strike Settled"
Editor Observer:

IIuiloI OUboTVeT.
Sir-In your publication OF last week
appears an article signed "a Miner"
His point in regard to the SO called
"Mill Strike" seems to be well taken
but there are extenuating circumstances.
The mill workers take the position
that an 8-hour law has been enacted and
is law until proven to the contrary.
Certainly they have right to entertain
such an opinion and are not to be
blamed.
To meet this new condition the mill
owners we're obliged to raise treatment
rates or run at loss. This assertion
admits of no argument, therefore the
mill owners did no wrong. They raised
the rate as little as possible-about IL
cents per ton.
The fault lies in the s.hour law, drawn
by shrewd corporation lawyer and en-
acted by onr late legislature, it is what
it was intended to be, a sham and a
fraud and worse still is an infringement
on the personal liberty OF the working
man. No member of the late assembly
will admit it as his offspring 1t is a
waif. Miner writes we'll but is not fair
in placing the responsibility.
Very respectfully,
MILL MAN.

Newhouse Power Starts.

The power plant at the mouth OF the
Newhouse tunnel will be started ur
next Monday morning, for the purpose
OF furnishing air for the driving of the
lateral on the Saratoga vein, and the
plant will probably furnish air for a mum.
Der OF other properties which contem-
plate working through the tunnel. For
the present the owners of the Saratoga,
Messrs. Morgan g. Owen, will operate
the plant under an arrangement with
the tunnel management, until the tunnel
company resumes work on the breast,
which is expected in the near future.
Two machine drills will be used in the
face OF the lateral and the work will be
pushed with all possible speed in order
to unwater the Saratoga workings. The
water has not lowered perceptibly in the
Saratoga since it was cut by the New
house tunnel, although there has been a
steady stream OF water coming from the
vein. This is accounted for by the large
quantity of surface water which drains
into the workings, which are also fed by
number OF water courses. Wiley Car
Teton, who formerly had charge of the
tunnel driving, has been appointed FORE
man, and will look after operations on
the Saratoga vein in the Newhouse tun-
mel.
Next week the big plant of machinery
on the No. shaft of the Saratoga mine
will be started up and the water lowered
to the fourth level by water skip, where
a considerable number of leasers will be
able to work on the blocks of ground
from which they were driven by the
water raising some months ago. 1t is
hoped that with the continuation of the

KILLED IN CAVE-IN
NEAR OLD TOWN MINE
John Maunder Crushed Under
Tons of Dirt.

While proving up the apex of vein
in cut west of the Old Town mine Tues
day, James Maunders, resident OF
Russell, was instantly killed by being
buried under several tons OF dirt and
rock. He and companion named Tom
Williams had just finished driving a
drift and were picking out the bottom OF
the drift when the cavern occurred.
Williams had miraculous escape, hav-
ing just stepped back from where Maun-
der was standing moment before the
dirt fell which caused the death of his
companion. Men from the Old Town
mine were summoned and the body of
Maunder was uncovered. A heavy rock
had preceded the fall of dirt and had
struck the man on the back OF the head
crushingit it badly. This no doubt is what
caused instantaneous death, as no other
part OF the body, with the exception of a
few bruises about the face, was injured.
Maunder's body was brought to this
city shortly after the accident occurred
and an inquest was held by Coroner AS
quith Tuesday afternoon before a Jury
OF six, verdict being rendered to the
effect that death was met through an un-
avoidable accident.
Deceased had Just arrived from Eng
land about two months ago and com
menced working for the Old Town COM
pany the first of June. The only rela-
tive he had in this section was a brother
in-law residing in Russell, Sam Roberts
A wife and two children are living in
England, and he had brother in Michi-
gar who has been teiegraphed and is ex-
pected to arrive this evening or tomor-
row morning. Until he comes no ar
rangements will be made for the funeral.
