MINING CONGRESS
 STRENGTHENS ORGANIZATION
Local Officers Are Appointed in Each State-Col. L. w. Powell Vice
 President for Arizona.

| DENVER, Colo, March 1.-The ef
 fectiveness of the American Mining
 congress is to be greatly increased by
 a plan, as announced by the board of
 directors, of having local officers ard | subsidiary organizations in each of the
 mining centers, where no active asso. citations are now in existence. Here
 tofore the congress has been exclusive
 iy national in its scope, giving little attention to the local problems that vcx the camps individually, but its growing strength in all the mining states with large membership in each, has sug- gested a new arrangement under which each state will have it's own local branch organization, with local officers and committees in charge. The ma. tional. organization will thus be brought into close contaet with the small op- orator as well IS the large one and the entire strength of tho national body will, if necessary, be thrown behind any local movement for relief from condi- tions generally oppressive to the indus try
 Besides having vice president for each state, who will preside over all lo- cal meetings, and look after the local affairs of the Mining congress, stand ing committees will be appointed by the congress for each state, for the pur- pose of ascertaining how the industry Is locally affected by such questions as the forest reserves, shelter rates, trars- portation rates, labor conditions, etc.
 Colonel l.. W. Powell of Bisbee has been selected as the vice president for Arizona, and mining men throughout Arizona are highly gratifed over this appointment. Colonel Powell is now the president of the Arizona Sonora branch of the congress.

STREET CAR
CROSSING TROUBLE

The section CT ew on the Chicago and
North " es ern Railway. and a like
crew employed by he Grand Rapids
aud NekoOsa SGr. ct Car Co, had a
disagreement in reference to d cr S.
ing on the south side rear the Cen
tralia Pulp and Pap + Co.'S. mill on
Saturday afternoon Two Of The men
had fist encounter Of short duration
S rect car men were pu ting in d tenn
p ray C Os>ing across the North
Western switch track at hat point,
and the section crew Of the North
Western had received no Information
tha they were parmiCted to do thi>
and consequently objected to this
GRO sing going in until they had
received order from higher authority
than that assumed by the Str eet Car
crew. This was the cause OF trouble
and it appears that the Northwestern
difference was concerned. MIR. Par.
son in the employ of the Street Ry
Go. persisted in putting in the cross
ing and TO prevent him in the progress
of the work, the North Western Sc
tion crew had the freight train back
in a car and de-rail 1t just at the poiut
Of the ciosstng. This stopped the
progress Of the work until Monday
morning, when representa- tives Of
both companies got together and
settled the matter and adjusted the
difference between them. From now
on it is expected there will be no
further trouble with reference to
crossings. 1t is the opinion of those
who witnessed the trouble that both
men were somewhat TO blame in their
haSty action and the trouble brought
on by them on both companies. We
are glad TO announce that the differ
eucz have been amicabiy and prompt
ly settled. Work will no go on as be

slapped the ball over the line for
the first touch down in the game.

caught by Carbon, who hee1ed the
ground, but the goal was missed and

The game was clean from start

on the part of Prof. McNeal of To,
nah is deserving of more than or

POLICE CAPTURE
SUSP P|C|OUS MAN
Stevens Point Officers Find
Three Gold Certificates on
his Person.

STEVENS POINT, Wis, Oct 20
A young man about 25 years old,
giving his address as ZOO Seymour
street Chicago, arrived here from
Chippewa Falls Monday morning and
was picked up by the police as a
suspicious character.
On his person were found three
gold certificates for 1000 each and
other change amounting in all to
$3,078,12, also diamond pin which
he claimed was worth $500. He al
so carried a big revolver. He was
arraigned in Municipal court charged
with carrying concealed weapons and
his hearing was adjourned for one
day. He was remanded to jail with
out bail.
He made a strong personal plea for
bail and offered to put up the three
81 900 bills and the diamond, but the
offer was refused. He claimed to

He ENTERS
THE RACE
Assemblyman Hambrecht, of
Wood County, Decides on Be-
coning Candidate for Con-
greSs.

The information has been received
here that Assemblyman Hambrecht
OF Wood Co. has finally acceded to
the demand Of his friends and will
enter the field for the Republican
nomination for Congress i'm this dis
trlct. This means that there will
be a red hot fight in this COMPRESSION
al district between Congressman
Morse and Assemblyman Hambrecht
for the Republican nomination Con-
gressman Morse is strong La
Toilette advocate and a vigorous op-
ponent of Joe Cannon and his policies
while Assemblyman Hambrecht is a
Stalwart Republican: He was close
ly allied during the winter with the
Stalwart organization of the assem-
bly, that endeavored in every way pos
sible to embarass La Toilette.
The announcement that Assembly
man Hambrecht is to enter the race
means a lengthy campaign for this
nOm1naClOn.
This congressional district has al
ways been counted in Republican fac
tiOnal contests, as a Sta1wart Republi
can district, because the Republican
party in the district has always been
dominated by prominent lumbermen
who are generally hostile to LaFol-
lette. This district was the only
one in the entire state to send an
anti-La Toilette delegate to the last
Republican National convention, and
in view of this fact Assemb1yman
Hambrecht is relying on the same
kind of support as that which anita
gonized the La Toilette delegates, ant
believes that he has an exceptional
ly good chance to win the nomination
away from Congressman Morse.
Assemblyman Hambrecht will be in
the city this week with the legis-
lative committee on water powers.
