PRODUCERS UP AGAINST IT
Committee of Utah Operators
Association Gets Little Salts
faction from SIneltermen

Salt Lake Herald, March IL: A COM
mittee from the Utah Mine Operators
Association, consisting Of W. +. Snyder,
lC. E. Loose and Secretary II. s. Joseph,
held a conference with the chief local
officials of the American Smelling q
Refining Company yesterday afternoon
for the purpose Of getting a line on the
attitude OF the trust shelters toward
prospective shippers.
While the conference was held be-
hind closed doors. enough was learned
after the meeting to make 1t evident
that the Trust has no immediate inten
! ton Of pursuing any different policy to
| that which prevailed when the mines
ceased production.
That means, of course, that no matter
what the price of lead and silver may
be, the smelter will collect just AZ
much as it is felt the producer will
stand and still continue to operate his
mine. In other words. it is still the
intention to make the preferred stock
in the great concern go on earning It's
8 per cent while the common stock Will
be made to pay about three times as
much, not to say anything of the hun
dreds of thousands of dollars per annun
that will go to the energetic employes
of the company who help to make the
big dividends come regularly.
''It's the same old story" said q man
who learned something of what took
place at the conference. 1.-THE COM
pany officials talk smoothly enough,
but at the same time they make 1t plain
enough that, if the price Of the metals
advance, they propose to have a slice.
and a big one, of whatever the advances
will amount to above a minimum liked
value. Smelling charges are also going
to be higher, and the same old games of
figuring penalties, units and percent
ages, that invariably work to the ad-
vantage of the smelter. will be resorted
to-"
There is a chance, therefore. that the
independent smelter proposition will
now be pushed harder than ever. al
though there is a chance Of getting fair
treatment for a number OF producers
from the Knight smelter, and a still
better chance of getting some substan-
tial relief If the United States Company
gets permission from Judge Marshall to
operate its lead smelling works at Bing'
ham Junction.

Brown Released From Custody

The Elko Independent of March IA
comments as follows regarding the re-
lease from custody Of q man recently
tried there: Carl Brown, the young
man who was brought from Los Angeles
to answer to the charge Of horse steal
ing, was released from custody last
night. He played in extremely good
luck in escaping a term in the peni-
Tertiary, as those acquainted with the
case against him have no hesitancy in
declaring their belief in his guilt. IL is
g fortunate thing for him that the wit
nesses whose evidence was relied upon
to convict him failed to make good.
Brown left for Goldfeld last night.
His experience here should be o lesson
to him in the future.
