/ making interesting experiments in
municipal ownership. Il is the only
town in the United States Which owns
its own street railway. Seven miles
| Of first-class track were laid at a
cost of $4,000 for construction and
| equipment. Three lines extend from
| the center of the town to the suburbs.
The service is good and the fare 5
! cents. | was assured that the venture
was successful from the start and at
the present rate the net receipts would
pay for the road in five years. The
city has also taken over the water
plant and electric light works and
claims to have cheaper water and
light than other towns. Last year
Monroe purchased 800 acres of land
two miles from the center of the town.
The street railway has been extended
out to it, a summer theatre erected,
race track built, ball ground laid
out, q grandstand erected, and trees,
shrubs and flowers planted. The
land cost the city $4,000. The mu-
nicipality also owns the wharf, which
cost $4,000, and a bridge which cost
S88, 900. It has expended over $780,
600 for public utilities, yet it's bonded
debt is now only $3.50, 900. Monroe
is trying an interesting experiment
which will be watched closely by other
progressive towns in the country.
LoUIsIANA's WATERWAYS.
Louisiana has a matchless system
of waterways. It's rivers and bayous
which are navigable have a length of
over 5000 miles and reach all save
three of its SIS parishes, which CORE
spond to our counties. By the cutting
of canals, which can be done at a
small cost or = count Of the alluvial
soil, vast network of interlacing
waterways can be created. The rivers
and bayous are quite deep, so to 100
feet in depth being common. The
soil is OF wonderful fertility. The
whole state is altuvial and made of
the richest portion of the q states
washed by the Mississippi and its
branches. All the low land will even
tually be reclaimed and will blossom
like the rose. The state could sustain
a population equal to that of Hol- |
land, which has over 500 to the square
mile. Western Pennsylvania should
have a deep interest in Louisiana, |
for its development will open wide
field for our coal, iron, steel, pottery,
glass and other products. With a |
nine-foot stage in the Ohio river these
products can be conveyed to Louis |
lana at one-eighth of the present
freight charge by rail. On the other /
hand, their sugar, molasses, rice, |
salt and lumber can be brought up
the river at less than one-third the
cost Of shipment by rail. Most of i
the sugar goes by water to New York. i
It costs Us $3.50 per ton to bring it |
by rail from New York to Pittsburg |
With a uniform stage of water in the
Ohio, it could be brought from New /
Orleans to Pittsburg at So. 30 per ton, -

FRIEDNIAN'S MINES.

Word comes from an authentic
source at Seven Troughs that the
Kindergarten and Fairview mines of
that district are producing steadily,
and that the veins are widening as
depth is attained; at the 400 and 500
foot levels the values in the ores are
enormous, and only the smelter diff
ficulties prohibits some sensational
shipments from there at this time.
The Fairview and Therin properties
are to have a large mill very shortly,
arrangements having been perfected
for it's erection. The recent COM
promise of the water ownership has
settled the question OF that necessity,
and the ore is wonderfully adapted
for free milling.
l.. A. Friedman will leave Salt
Lake City next week with Sam Levy
and Willard Snyder to make the
final arrangements for installing the
mill, which is to be large one, cap
able of handling many tons per day,

Mining men MUST
own SHELTERS

An operator who is prominently
connected with one of the largest
mines in Nevada as we'll as with sew
eral Utah properties, said that there
was no reason in the world why the
mine owners should not get together
on the proposition and that never
before had there been such an oppor-
tune time to start such project.
''The exactions of the smelter trust
are becoming simply unbearable,' he
said 1T is a question of relief or
koing out of business. And even
those who could continue to run I'M
der the new requirements are not in
clined to submit to downright rob-
berry simply because they are able to
stand it. They don't like the idea of
being in position where they must
give up the big end Of their profits to
the smelter trust for no other reason
than that the trust needs the money.
Every one knows that the smelters
in the past have been taken the big
end of the profits. Now they want it
ali.
IAN advance of So ton for treat
ing ore from our Nevada mines was
made only few weeks ago and they
are now demanding another advance
of the same amount and refuse to
take our ore at all unless we sign a
five years contract. 1t looks to me
as though something had taken place
recently which gives the Smelter
trust the idea that 1t has mortgage
on the mining business of the coun-
try and is attempting to foreclose the
mortgage. l for one would be will
ing to forego the making of profits
for a few months or year in order
to get out of the clutches of the trust.
If other mine owners feel the same
way about it, and | know that many
of them do, there is no reason why
they should not get together and pro-
vide their own smelling facilities"
1t is not unlikely that the subject
will be taken up at the meeting of
the Tintic Mine Owners association
to be held today. 1t has not been
officially stated that this will be done,
but the extingencies of the situation
are such that many believe that the
independent smelter is the only sal
walton of the mining industry. For
that reason the subject can not well
be avoided.-Salt Lake Republican.
