The United States produces first in
rank the lead of the world. or 35.5 per
cent of the world IS production, and
that II uses 81 per cent of the world s
production. That there was an average
OF $3.50 difference in the daily wages
paid miners of the United States and
metal lead in the United States at 2l2
cents a pound without q tariff protec
tion such as we have now, while pres
ent day mine owners deplore the pres
ent price their lead brings, or 4.3 cents
per pound. Mr., Joseph figured that 4
reduction of the tariff on lead would
mean an annual loss to Utah mining in
dustry of s3.4S0,000 while complete
shutdown of lead-silver mines. that
would in all probability follow re-
ductiou of the tariff, would create a
loss annually TO Utah of $l4,760,000 IL
metals. Ten thousand men would be
thrown out of employment, meaning
loss in wages annually OF $10,000,o00,
which means practically that much loss
to every industry dependent on the
mines and on trade OF the men en-
ploye6.

OFFERS A REWARD
FOR THEIR ARREST
Governor Of Kentucky Will Pay $500
for Each Conviction of
Night Riders.

Frankfort, Ky, Jan. i-Governor
Wilson yesterday issued a proclama-
ton in which he offered a reward of
$500 for the conviction of any person
implicated in the raids of the might
riders in the dark tobacco belt.
This action was the result of a raid
made upon Russellville Thursday night
i'll which two warehouses and several
other buildings were burned and four
persons seriously injured by the raid
ers.
In his statement Governor Wilson
said the raid was clearly a violation
of the promises made by the managers
of the tobacco associations in that part
of the state and was made to hinder
the prosecution of the participants in
the recent raid at Hopkinsville by in
timidating the officials and witnesses
The governor says these tactics will
not stop prosecution of the ringleaders
in the affairs, but will only result il
the Gripping of the Kentucky tobacco
industry. He declares the fight will bt
pushed by the state until all the lead
ers in the conspiracy are in the peni
tentiary.

MODIFY RIDING ORDER
FOR PART OF ARMY MEN?
President and War Secretary May Alb.
solve Engineer Officers From
"Horseback Ordeal"

Washington, ID. c., Jan. 4.-President
Roosevelt and Secretary Taft are
wrestling with the problem of army
horsemanship tests, and it is probable
that the original order will be modified
so as to allow engineer officers and
other staff officers to remain on the
active list in spite of the fact that they
are deficient in horseback riding.
Each retirement case will be thor
ougbly gone over and every detail of
the record examined as evidence of an
officers ability to do his work properly
and if it is found that an officer exam
ined is qualified in every respect to
perform the duty of his Office he is
likely to be allowed to remain on the
active list in spite of the fact that he
is unable to stand the strain of a 80
mile ride for three consecutive days,
as is prescribed by the presidents re-
cent ,horsemanship order.
Brfgadier-General Darlington, in
spector general of the army, has recon-
mended that the officers in his depart
npent be allowed two afternoons each
week in which to practice horseback
riding.

Paris, Jan. 1.-THE newspapers yes
terday published long accounts of the
encounter Thursday between Count
Boni de Castellane and Prince Helle
de Sagan in the Rue de Challot. Count
Boni is quoted as declaring his cousin
to be outside the pale of society. Prince
Helie de Sagan declares that he sees
no reason to change his decision not to

Who Tried to Organize
Counter Attack.

Ogden, Utah, Jan. 4.-With cries of
Hang the Japs!" mob of 200 men
Thursday night invaded the Japanese
quarters here, but the timely arrival
of the police prevented bloodshed.
The trouble was brought about by
the replacing of a number of white
laborers with Japanese at the Harri-
man ice house in the railroad yards.
The matter was taken up by some
of the local labor leaders. The white
men looked on the affair as an out
rage and denounced the railroad COM
pany bitterly
Japs Flee i'm Terror.
Thursday the railroad people an
nounced that they had decided to
transfer the Japs to some other point,
and it was believed that this would
end the trouble. After night fell
more than 100 men gathered at the
union depot and marched up Twenty
fourth street to the Jap quarter, near
the federal building. The crowd grew
as it moved, and as the mob neared
the Japanese quarter the threats of
lynching SO frightened the orientals
that they fed out into the street,
scattering in every direction.
Riot calls were sent IN and a squad
of 20 policemen were hurried to the
scene.
Mob Put to ROur.
About the same time the sheriff S
posse arrived and both charged the
mob. The leader was arrested and
the mob soon broke and fed, with the
officers in pursuit.
When the police returned to the
scene of the trouble they found Jap.

the general declares, gave the Japan
