TO REDUCE THE LEAD OUTPUT
United States Smelling Company
Requests Lead Producers
to Curtail Shipments

The United States Mining and Smelt-
ing Company, through its metallurgi-
cal director, Fl. A. Prosser, publishes in
the Salt Lake papers Of October 10 the
following open letter to all shippers of
lead ores to it's smelters. This publica-
ton was made to correct misstate-
ment that had gained credence to the
effect that Mr.. Prosser had notified the
Colorado Mining Company that ship
ments of lead ores would in future have
to be reduced to specific tonnage.
The main fact which induced the
smelling company to offer the follow
ing suggestions to its patrons was ow-
ing to the recent drop in the price of
refined lead:
ION account of the fact that is
practically impossible to market any
considerable tonnage Of refined lead, we
believe that curtailment of lead pro-
duction would be for the best interests
Of all parties concerned in producing
lead. Should the present large stocks
Of refined lead be increased, further
break in the price is inevitable. The
largest producers in the country have
curtailed their output, and it is no more
than fair that the other producers
should contribute their share to decreas-
ing the output. We therefore request you
to diminish yonr shipments of lead ore
to us. and would be glad to hear from
you by return mail as to what reduc-
ton in shipments you are willing
to make. This letter is being sent,
without exception, to all contract ship
pers of lead ores to our smelling plant
at Bingham junction.
Every rely that has been received to
this letter indicates that the shippers
will make a moderate reduction in their
output.
I'm no case have we stated how much
this reduction should be; we have left
that for the shipper to decide. We do
not know of any case where shipments
will be reduced as much as so per cent.
1.-THE above mentioned letter to our
customers was a private letter, not in
tended for publication. Unfortunately
various misleading references have been
made in the press to this letter, and we
have therefore thought it best to pub
lish all the facts, in order that the pub.
lie may not be further misled."

GUGGENHEIM OPTOMlSTIC
But Sherman Law Bars Business
Interests from Aiding Country


Interests from Aiding Country
Salt Lake City, October l2.-Daniel
Guggenheim, head Of the American
Smelling & Refining Company, arrived
in Salt Lake this afternoon. Mr.. Gug.
genheim is ON a tour Of inspection of
the American Smelling g. Refining
Comptny's plants in the West.
Mr.. Guggenheim says that the recent
curtaimant of the copper output was
a natural outgrowth of the fact that
the world is doing about FIVE per cent
too much business for the money it has.
He says he does not anticipate serious
hard times aud declares that as soon
as business shrinks to par with the
amount Of capital to be invested the
financial situation will be relieved.
He also took occasion to say, how.
ever, that the sherman Antitrust law
ought to be repealed and less drastic
measure framed to rphce it. He
pointed ont that under its provisions
it was impossible for business interests
to get together aud do things that
woull help the country.

SALTED WYOMING PLACER MINE
Discovery Creates Biggest SEN
sation in History of Mining
in the Northwest

The Helena, Montana, Record pub
fishes a story to the effect that numer-
ous Montana aud Washington investors
have been mulcted to the extent of
more than a third of a million dollars
through the discovery that certain
placer mines near Landers, Wyoming,
had been salted and that the property
in question is worthless. Thomas l..
Greenough of Missoula. and J. F.
Greenough of Spokane, who were the
prime movers in the organization. have
notified all investors that they will re-
deem all stock at the price paid, thus
assuming the loss.
The discovery that the property was
salted was due to an independent ex.
animation conducted by Speaker E. W.
King. of the Montana Legislature. and
j. r. Neill of Spokane, heavy prospec-
tive investors. who conducted independ-
ent inspections and found after remov.
ing a few inches of shaft walls that the
ground was valueless, as were the tail
ings, although all previous experiments
showed values ranging from 20 cents to
to 80 yard.
A Chicago firm was so impressed
with the future Of the property that it
offered the Greenoughs $4,000 for
their interest, but it was rejected.
Water not being available. work had
been started from either end of tunnel
through mountain, so that the flow of
the Popheagie river might be utilized.
The discovery has created the biggest
sensation in the history of North
west mining.

Manhattan, Nevada, October lo-An
organization known as the Manhattan
Protective Committee. composed OF the
leading men of thi S camp, has decided.
if possible, to drive all foreign labor
from Manhattan and to have the mine
owners here employ Americans only.
They claim that the Slav labor i'm

camp no good and that they do not
want the same cheap labor to enter
Manhattan and reduce wages and tend
to ruin the camp.
As vet there are only few Greeks

securing positions. The Committee VIII

BIRTHMARKS MAY BE ERASED
French Physicians Declare They Have
Made an Important Discovery

Mdue an iHlpSI tdut bloNofoil
Paris, October. l2 Two prominent
French physicians. Drs. Wickham and
DeGrais, have caused a sensation at the
Academy Of Medicine by areport that
they had succeeded in many cases in re-
moving the birthmarks known as port
wine stains, with radium. The new
method has proved equally successful
n the cases of adults and children.
The marks are effaced by the simple
application of a plain surface covered
with varnish containing radium. The
action is regulated by the length and
frequency Of the application. The doc
tors showed a series of photographs Illus
trating stages of the cure, aud hnai
treatment, which left the stain in It's
normal condition.
The applications, they stated, were
absolutely painless, and the treatment
could be applied to any infant 9uring

TO USE CARDBOARD BOXES
Cost so Per Cent Less and Lightness
Reduces Freight Charges

According to the freight agents wood
en- boxes for packing purposes are doom
ed. Cardboard cases in car load lots
are arriving on the Coast daily from the
East consigned mostly to wholesale
grocers. This substitution for wooden
boxes is due to the recent advances il
price and scarcity of lumber.
The cardboard cases are made from
heavy jute and are said to embrace al
the qualities of the wooden case at &
figure approximately 80 per cent less
There is also a vast saving in the
amount of freight, as the cardboard
box weighs aboutone-fourth as much a
a wooden box of the same size.

Beware Young Men.

If you don't want women to out
strip you in the industrial C and
compel you to come to them when
you want fifty cents, you would better
stop drinking poor whiSkey and quit
gambling at race tracks. Women, in
spite of mans refusal to give them
the rights and privileges to which
they are entitled, are today in las
branches of business and in instances
showing more ability than the men.
In one of the greatest financial in
situations in this country, not long
ago, a we'll known man, drawing a
salary of $25, 600 a year, suffered a
nervous collapse. The directors
| selected a young woman who for ten
| years had been the stenographer.
She, the directors told US, has done
better work than the man she sue
ceeded and is doing it fer but $40, 900
a year. In fifty years these women
will know more than the men. They
have more time to read and study and
they are improving their time.
Eventually all the universities will be
c~o-educational and the women will
carry off all the prizes.

However, since hearing Mr.. Brewers

who are acquainted with his strong
character know that he has the bull
dog tenacity to stand by what he be-

best for the people. We admire in
him those qualities which have
brought him from from a bare-fOoted,
hickOry-Shirted, orphan boy to the
high plane on which he can aspire tC
be governor OF a great state. The
man who has fought the hard battles
of life as he has fought them deserves
more credit than is ever given. The
man who says that there is nothing
in Earl Brewer is miStaken; were

land with old Beck'S ears for a com.

qualities for which we admire James
