CONCERTED ACTION
AGAINST ALLEGED GRAFT

Several hundred people attended a
mass meeting held Tuesday night to
protest against alleged extortion OF
money from residents of the redlight
district by county and town Officials
and their confederates. The meeting is
a sequel TO the closing of several
houses of mirth" in the south end of
town at the instance of the district at
torney. The charge vas vigorously
made that these protectors OF the pub
lie safety had attempted to secure
hush money from the keepers of dis
reputable establishments, and that in
instances where they failed the places
had been closed.
The meeting resulted in the adpotion
of resolutions numerously signed ask
ing the board of county commissioners
to depose District Attorney Davidson
The chairman OF the meeting was au-
thorized to appoint a committee of 10,
whose names should not be made pub
lie, to take the matter In hand and sup
press graft and bossism.' The gath
ering was OF a somewhat
character, the hall being packed to the
doors and the addresses made from the
platform and floor were directed in no
uncertain terms against those who are
accused of taking money from the I'M
~fortunates.

EXTENSIVE OPERATIONS
AT GOLD MOUNTAIN

j. F. Parsons. superintendent of the
Nevada Goldfeld and Nevada Sunshine
properties at Gold mountain was in the
city this week. str. Parsons states that
the double compartment shaft which is
being sunk on the line between the two
properties has been put down to a depth
of IT'S feet, and that they expect to
catch the vein at a depth of 800 feet.
An incline shaft has followed this vein
from another point on the property for
a distance of $50 feet. Operations are
being prosecuted with a 40-horse power
gasoline engine the largest in the
southern country, and a working force
Of % is prosecuting the development
which the has mapped out.
on the Nevada Sunshine which is
practically owned by the same men, a
tunnel has followed a two and a half
foot ore shoot for a distance of more
than 200 feet. MIR. Parsons states that
this ore body averages $50 per ton. The
tunnel has given a depth of zoo feet on
the vein at the deepest point and as a
consequence a great ore body is in
sight.
Both of these properties were pur-
chased last fail by a syndicate headed
by w. A.. Comstock. of Detroit. Mich,
and 100000 in cash paid for the ground
Oh the Nevada Goldfeld. 1t was one of
the largest cash Transactions made in
the district.

A WITH CAMP

r. G. Virtue, 2 mining and business
man of southern Oregon, Roland Will
Jams, who has mined extensively in
Idaho and Montana, and Victor Ownby,
who for several years mined in Alaska,
arrived in Goldfield a few days ago,
driving in by way of Las Vegas. En-
route here the party stopped over ut
Rhyolite and Bullfrog and inspected a
number of the larger mining properties.
The gentlemen are convinced that the
Bullfrog country has a great mining
future and state that considerable
eastern money is to be invested there
the coming Summer.
Mr.. Virtue spent several months in
southern Utah looking over its mining
possibilities. but states that he saw
nothing there that looked as good to
him as does the Nevada mineral belt.
He is particularly well pleased with the
Goldfeld district and is of the opinion
that the camp offers splendid oppor-
~tunities for live mining and business
men. In fact, he is an enthusiast on
the possibilities of the entire state and
believes that with better railroad facil-
tiles Nevada will become the leading
mining community of the entire coun-
try.

The first of the present week the
corps of miners employed on the Mayne-
Goldfeld estate was increased in order
to hasten development both at surface
and underground. The claims of the
company are located on the west slope
of Columbia mountain just north of the
town of Columbia and have unques-
toned prospective value. Shafts are
being sunk or two of the claims which
has resulted in the opening up and pros

The horse is ridden on the spinal

his head is attached to the trunk by Il

Labor Oppressed Yeara Ago.

Labor Oppressed Years Ago.
All the writer's on the early labor
movement agree that the working peo-
pie in the early history of the nation
had a hard row to hoe Here is what
one writer says:
The length of a working day in
1926 varied from twelve to fifteen
hours. The New England mills gener-
ally ran thirteen hours a day the year
round. The regulations of the factories
were cruel and oppressive to degree.
Operatives were taxed by the company
for the support of religion. Habitual
absence from church was punished
by the Lowell Manufacturing Com
pany with dismissal from employment
and in other respects the life of the
employees outside the factories was
regulated as well as their life within
them. Windows were nailed down and
the operatives deprived of fresh air.
A case of rebellion Oh. the part of 1000
women on account of tyrannical and
oppressive treatment is recorded.
Women and children were scourged
by the use of cowhide, and an in
stance is recorded of an 11-year-old
boy whose leg was broken by a billet
of wood. In Mendon a boy of II
drowned himself in pond to escape
factory labor. Wages in the mills
were small, adults earning between 60
cents and II cents a day.
John Mitchell in his Organized La
Dor says: From 1925 to 1929 the earn
ings of the American workingmen were
higher than ever before in the Ameri-
can history The unskilled workmen,
such as sawyers and hodcarriers. re-
ceived about 70 cents a day for twelve
hours work where they previously re-
ceived so cents from sunup to sun
down. During the winter, however,
wages were much lower Men who
could earn in summer from 6215 cents
to so cents a day We're glad to receive
a smaller sum in winter
According to ]. B. McMaster, the
remuneration of women was, as it is
to-day, lower than that of men and
their opportunities for employment in
comparably less. Women might bind
shoes, sew rags, fold and stitch books,
become spoilers or make coarse shirts
and duck pantaloons at or 10 cents
apiece. The making of shirts was
sought after because these garments
could Sie made in the lodgings of the
seamstress, who was commonly the
mother of a little family and often a
widow. Yet the most expert could not
finish more than nine shirts week.
for which she might receive ~ or 90
cents. Fifty cents a week seems to
have been about the average earnings
at shirtmaking.
ut was about 1925, when the condi-
lions of the American workman had
already begun to improve, that consid-
cradle unrest appeared among the la
boring classes, and from this time to
the outbreak of the civil war there was
a gradual evolution toward a higher
standard of life and labor

Industrial Notes.

During October the American Fedora
ton of Labor issued 10 charters. di-
vided as follows: Central bodies, z State
bodies, 2; federal labor unions, 6; local
trade unions, 4. At the present time it
has 11S international unions affiliated,
with approximately 81, 900 locals.
According to a report issued by the
American Federation of Labor, the per-
centage of workmen unemployed in the
month of October is smaller than it has
ever been since records were kept OF
1855 unions, with an aggregate mem
bership of 154, lis, making returns, there
were nine-tenths of one per cent without
employment.
The Louisiana Supreme Court has de-
cided that a labor union has no right to
control the acts of its members when
performing public duties. The case was
that of the Plumbers Union, which had
ordered its members on. the board to
vote for a certain candidate for inspec-
tor. The men refused and were expelled
from the union, and the court now or
ders them reinstated.
The Industrial Workers of the World
have about so members in Chicago, ac-
cording to J. j. Keppler, business agent
of the Machinists' Union, but he says
"they make enough noise for 5000"
The organization was formed last July,
and attempts to unite all the workers
under one union. 1t operates in direct
opposition to the American Federation
of Labor, and officials of that organiza-
ton say that the new idea is imprac-
tical and will not succeed.
Beginning on Monday, Jan. /, 10000
hands employed by the American Wool
en- Company of Boston had their wages
advanced 10 per cent, The increase be-
comes effective in the 80 plants of the
corporation, which are located in several
States, and several wooden mills in the
East not owned by the company have
granted a similar advance. 1t is esti-
mated that the advance viii give the
American Wooden Company's hands an
aggregate of about $1,000,O00 more each
year than they have been receiving.
As it's final word to the public in an

During the last two years Argentina,
South America, has had more than her
share of labor troubles. Strike has sue

labor question arrived that Congress
sanctioned a residential law bs which
the government was authorized to expel
from the country all foreigners who were
considered dangerous individuals Over
200 persons have been sent out of the
country under this law. The average
workingman has gained in one way CON
siderably from the strikes, as the eight

the country and wages are much higher.
