RIOT CAUSED BY
STRIKING Miners
COPPER TOWN OF RocKLAND,
MICH, is SCENE OF A FIERCE
CLASH.
ONE MAN is KILLED
j AND SEVERAL HURT
Trammers Demand More Pay and At
tempt to Prevent Disgers from
Going to Work-Forty Are Placed
Under Arrest.

Calumet, Mich, Aug. 2.--Rockland,
a little mining town IN Ontonagon
county, was the scene Of wild disor-
der Tuesday night, when the Striking
at the Michigan copper
mine attacked the miners who were
going to work under the protection
of Sheriff William Mcfarland and
heavy guard of deputies. A mad riot
ensued, which lasted some time. AS
a result one man was killed and an
other MORALLY wounded. Several more
were shot and 40 of the strikers are
now under arrest in the town hall at
Rockland.
The trouble started on Monday,
when the TRAINERS struck for higher
pay. The miners and other employees
wanted to work, as they were salts
fed with their wages, but did not for,
fear OF the TRAINERS. Tuesday night
Sheriff Mcfarland and large party
of deputies who had been sworn In
at Ontonagon and Rockland went to
the mine to guard the men who de-
sired to work. AS the miners went to
the dry house to put on their work
ing clothes several stones were
thrown at them by the strikers. After
changing their clothes the miners
started for the shaft house, when the
strikers attempted to rush them. The
TRAINERS were armed with stones,
clubs, knives and revolvers. In the
general melee several shots were fred
by strikers. The sheriff and deputies
then returned the fire.
The battle ragged fiercely for a time,
but the TRAINERS were soon beaten
back, and as many as could made q
break for liberty and made good their
escape. Sheriff Mcfarland and depu-
ties held 20 Of the rioters, who were
Quartered In the town hall and taken
TO the county jail at Ontonagon under
guard Wednesday. Owing to many
wounded being carried from the field
by strikers. and their condition not
being reported, it is difficult to sum
up the casualties. One man was
killed Tuesday night, another is ex4
pected to die. Many were injured by
revolver shots. stones, clubs and
fistic encounters. The Michigan mine
physician, DIR. e. j. Evans, is admin
istering to needs Of wounded. Condi-
tions at mine and In village OF Rock
land were quiet Wednesday. The sher-
iff has closed all Of the places Of
business, and citizens are helping to
restore order.

at its big surface shrwings. The
mineralized district covers an area OF
more than ten square miles, and there
are several properties sacking shipping
ore at the present time. Unlike in
most camps these paying properties
are scattered over large area, being
from one to four miles apart, showing
that the district is equally rich in all
portions.

The Woman School Teacher

In reply to the oft-repeated asser-
tion that no girl should begin teaching
unless she is to make it lifelong pro-
fession 1t is sufficient to say that no
young woman. however fancy free she
may be. is able to say with certainty
that she will continue so. However
great may be her devotion to the
general cause Of learning at Q given
time. before the moon WAKES again
that broad affection may be particu-
larized and focused upon one weak
and unworthy member of the human
tribe, and this is a phenomenon against
which no human power has yet been
found to avail. The best school
teacher is the girl who has most of
the domestic instinct and is most like
ly to leave the pedagogic calling and
find her natural and proper place as
the arbiter Of her own home. 1t is
pleasant to find theory agreeing with
good sense, and the test Of good sense
is its agreement with the fixed and
universal laws of mother nature. The
idea that the woman school teacher is
sexless and emotionless species of
humanity is just as senseless as it is
ungaliant.

MoYER MUST STAND TRIAL
United States Supreme Court Re-
fuses Writ of habeas Corpus

The Supreme Court Of the United
States Monday decided the habeas
corpusof Meyer, Haywood and Petit
bone, the representatives of the
Western federation of Miners, who
are now held in prison in Idaho on
the charge of completely in the mur-
der of former Governor Stunenberg,
adversely to the men. The opinion
was by Justice Harlan. The effect Of
the decision was to hold the men for
trial in Idaho.
The case came to this court on an
appeal from decision Of. the Idaho
Federal Court. refusing to grant writs
Of habeas corpus. The principal
point Of controversy was the method
by which the Idaho authorities se-
cured jurisdiction over the men. All
of them are residents of Colorado,
and it was alleged on behalf of Meyer
and his associates that they were
kidnapped in pursuance Of conspiracy
to which che. Governor of Colorado
and the authoritis were parties, and
hence that the jurisdiction was &C.
quired by fraud.

Mining Man Questions Sincerity
Of Knockers Of His Industry
WEST IS GROWING TOO FAST
Getting From Under Control oI
Wall Street

Eastern Napoleons Of finance are
afraid Of the Western mining boom i;
not because the interests of the inno-
cent investor are jeopardized. as they
would have it appear, bnt because the
interests of the aforesaid Napoleons
are being jeopardized. The fact is
that the impetus being given the
mining industry is affording the limo
cent investor a chance to escape from
the clutches of the Wall Street shark,
who is jealous of his shorn power"
1t was 10 these words that one Of
the most prominent mining men of
Salt Lake. sizes up the attitude Of
some of the fnanciers of the East
towards the attention that is being
given mining investments on the New
York Board of Trade.
There never was a worse set Of
grafters than those same Fasteners.
They see their day Of unlimited power
waning and they get busy knocking
the mining industry. The best that
railroad and industrial stocks offer
these days is 8 or s per cent. and,
naturally, it makes him nervous when
he sees mining investments double
and treble in value in few weeks,
and 1t is little wonder that he with
draws his money from the old-time
issues and places 1t in curb offerings
Then there is another phase of the
situation. With the Heinzes and the
Newhouses all ready to build their
own railroads andAsmelters should the
occasion require 1t, and rapidly in
creasing their power to do the things
over which Eastern capitalists have
held as monopoly, the west becomes
less dependent upon the East, and 1t
is no wonder that those people are
becoming alarmed and knock so
vigorously.

Animals Leaving the State Must
Be Subjected to Dipping
SAY scABBIEs ARE PREVALENT
Action Taken BY United States De-
partment Of Agriculture

The following story concerning Ne
vada sheep appeared in last Satur-
days issue of the Salt Lake Herald.
How the Herald got wise to the prev
alence of scabbies among Nevada
sheep is more than we can say, for
we have made diIigeDt inquiry and
can learn of the existence of no such
disease among the sheep in this sec-
tion of the State.
The Herald says:
"All sheep leaving the State Of
vada must be dipped before crossing
the line, owing to the prevalence Of
-cabbies in that State. The action Of
the United States Department of Ag-
riculture dealing with the matter is
explained in an open letter by George
L. Hickox. local agent in charge, as
follows:
Nevada Sheep In Had Shape
This Office desires at this time to
announce that in the State of Nevada,
especially in the northeastern portion.
the reports of our inspectors show an
alarming prevalence of scabbies
among the sheep. These reports in
iicate that in Elko County more than
rs per cent of the sheep are infected
and heavy percentage of infection
exists throughout the State. from
this it is obvious that all other sheep
in Nevada are in a constant state of
exposure. This state of affairs has
made it necessary, during the past
three months, that all sheep moving
rom the State, for any purpose what
ever, be dipped before crossing the
line"
