TROUBLE RENEWED.

etrikinu MexIcans and RuraIes Had a
Fiaht-Five Of Former Killed.
Ell Paao, Tex, June A dispatch
received here tonight says:
Renewed trouble at Cannnea late
last night between the striking MexI-
cans OF Col w. G. Greene's mines
and smelter and rurales under Col.
Ilosterlitzky Five Mexican strikers
were killed and thirteen injured. A
rurale was also shot, but not serious
ly.'
The trouble broke out shortly after
the arrival of 200 Mexican troops from
HermciseIlo. Col. Kosterlitzky de-
clared the town under martial law and
proceeded to dispense the bands of
Mexicans at either end of town The
Mexicans resisted and were fired upon
by the soldiers, Then taking to the
mountains the Mexlcans fired upon the
American residences of the town
throughout the night, and many win
dows were broken, but little other
damage was done.
All of the American women of the
town and many of the women of the
higher class of Mexicans are quartered
with their children in Col. Green's
home for protection
The first Mexican soldiers to reach
the scene with the exception of Kos
terlitzky's Indian fighters arrived
about daylight this morning. They
numbered 200 and come from Her
molsello upon the order of Governor
Ysahel, Joining the forces of Col Kos
terlitzky, Complete martial law is es'
taolished and the troops were given
orders toaThoot to kill all persons who
gave the slightest resistance to orders
The situation is grave and more
trouble is expected.

there is the Minldoka tract, the Boise.

ment; but there are others. Capitalists
from the old world, especially from Ger
many and Russia, have been busy buy
ing timber lands. 1t is said, and / be-
lieve it is true, that about one third Of
the timber land Of Oregon has been &C.
quired by these fellows from abroad.
You know the Germans bought up the
bulk Of our walnut timber about 25
years ago, and now they are gobbling
the pine. Now you see, the millmen
have all these things 10 meet, and / see
no way to keep lumber from advancing
far beyond present prices unless it is
done through legislation. Congress
might remove the duty on lumber so as
to admit the Canadian product, and peo-
pie might be prohibited from acquiring
timber lands except on condition that
they cut and use Or market the timber
at some specified rate, corresponding to
the improvements which are required Of
the man who takes up agricultural land"

Big Strike in Moonlight Mine.

Pocatello Tribune: One OF the most
important discoveries in the history OF
the Fort Hall mining district was made
last week when underground workmen
at the Moonlight mine, IL miles east OF
this city, broke into magnificent body
of galena ore. The strike was made in
winze sunk near the face OF $50 foot
adit tunnel. The pay shoot was en-
countered at vertical depth OF 100 feet
below the groupings The ore extraor-
dinaryily heavy in silver, lead and cop.
per, lies in excellent shape for convenient
extraction. and large force Of miners
will at once be employed to get out d
shipment.
News Of the strike was brought to
Pocatello Sunday evening by Nat Ed
redge, secretary and general manager OF
the Pocatello Copper and Gold Mining
company, owning the Moonlight. Mr..
Eldredge makes weekly trips to the mine
and for some time has been confidently
expecting news OF rich strike. The
new adit level, driven 150 feet on the
vein, exploited strong fissure, the ore
in varying width carrying high values in
copper silver and gold. On the surface
shoot had been opened, selected sam
pies from which assayed go per cent cop
per, 81 ounces in silver, and over IS in
gold per ton. It was to prove the down
ward continuation Of this shoot that an
inclined winze was sunk along the hang
lngi wall Alta depth Of so feet in the
winze and 100 feet below tho outcrop-
shoot, the same rich ore was opened. A
crosscut is now being driven to deter
mine the width Of the ore body.
The Moonlight was one OF the original
locations in the Fort Hall district, and
about its name fingers the memory Of q
tragedy. twill be remembered that
four years ago, when the Fort Hall In
dian reservation was thrown open, there
was q stampede to locate mining claims.
"Sooners" knew Of the existence Of the
rich Moonlight o.tcroppings, and that
claim was the prize for which the STAN
ped9rs contended In the race to locate,
two men, Fritz and Donaldson, were shot
and killed.
The property has been under steady
development since that time. A long

A. D. QUANTRELL TALKS
Tells Causes Of High Prices Of
Lumber

The price of lumber has been advanc-
| ing SO steadily the past few years that it
has become matter of interest to all
readers. and thinking to get some light
on the subject we asked A. D. Quantrell
of the Idaho Lumber Company why the
price has advanced, and he answered:
"Well it is not by reason Of the com
bine as SO many people seem to con
clude; there are several things that
have bearing on the matter. When !
went into the lumber trade here IA years
ago we sold native lumber at $16a thous-
and, which we afterwards advanced to
$1S and S21 and which we cannot fur
nish now for less than S25."
"Perhaps you remember that some
years ago people here signed a petition
to have the cutting Of timber prohibited
except in cases where permits were
granted by the government. They did
this 10 save the forests to conserve the
snow and water supply. The govern
ment closed some saw mills at Beaver
Canyon and elsewhere and lumber had
to come from some where else. We have
been getting it from Oregon, and paying
more freight The freight amounts to
as much as the cost Of the lumber at the
mill, and the consumer has to pay that.
All this is direct result Of the signing
Of those petitions here away back in
1880. Now the government charges the
mill men $500 thousand feet, stump
age, and the consumer has to pay that
three dollars which adds to advance the
price Of lumber"
Since that there has been lot OF at
tention given to acquiring tiIuber lands
both BY entry and by purchase. The
laws permit it and individuals make use
Of the privilege. For example, Mrs. Fife
who used TO live here, moved to Moscow,
and took up some timber land up in the
mountains. Alter acquiring title to it
she sold it for good sum because there
was demand for timber. Her profits
had to be added to the price Of lumber,
and the consumers had to pay il"
"People came in from Minnesota. Wis
consin and Michigan and bought great
tracts Of timber and made fortunes out Of
it. Governor Hun. p administration was
severely criticised for selling SO much
timber, because the price kept on ad-
vancing so steadily that people could
look back ana see where the state had
missed it by selling SO cheap"
"What has been going on in Idaho has
also been going on in adjoining states.
Senator Clark Of Montana recently won
out in very long expensive suit with
the government over timber lands in
Montana, and now he is holding his tim
Der for big prices. His case is one Of
many that aods to the millmen's ex-
pense in producing lumber, and the con-
sumers invariably have to foot the bill"
"Only q couple Of weeks ago a party
went from here to invest in timber lands
in Oregon. They have right to do it /
and hold the timber until they get
ready to sell it. Hundreds cf parties
have done the same thing all over the
northwest. The rapid growth Of cities
and the development Of the whole coun-
try makes an increased demand for lum-
Der. For example, the settlement Of
the Twin Falls tract called ior as much
