DENVER, July 22.-The expected
controversy over the adoption of Presi-
dent Meyers report occupied practical
ly the entire time of today's sessions of
the convention of the Western Fedora
ton of Miners.
The introduction of the committee
resolution recommending favorable ac-
ton was the signal for the anti-admin-
istration forces, led by p. w. Flynn of
Butte, to launch their carefully pre-
pared contest
The insurgents opened their fight with
an attack on President Meyers sup

Flynn Offers Amendment
statement of the controversy pre-
pared by p. w. Flynn was read, and
its adoption was offered as an amend
ment to the committee report on the
presidents report.
The basis of the controversy was
found in the refusal of the Federation
officials to credit the Butte union with
their share of the three 81 assessments
authorized by a previous convention
for the creation of a strike fund, al
lowing it to apply on a Federation DEBT
of $4,000 to the Butte local. From the
about $4,000 of this assessment was
used to wipe out an Indebtedness of the
Federation.
A lengthy discussion ended in an. at
tempt by tine Flynn crowd to have
Meyers supplementary report as well
as his statement tabled but this was
lost, 149 to 19S.
Flynn statement could be taken the
hour of adjournment was reached.

Hereafter when a delegate on the
floor of the convention of the Western
Federation of Miners calls another del
egate a liar or uses profane language 1t
will cost him $40. A resolution to this
effect was adopted this morning.
The convention again reaffirmed its
policy of education and recommended
an aggressive campaign along the
lines of Independent political action
and industrial unionism. 1t also IN

department because 1t was in viola

planned he had had a permit, but for
some reason the contract was not be-

necessary to secure new permit.
The city attorney holds that those
who secured their building permits
prior to the passage of the ordinance
are privileged to continue their struc-

Total reduction corporations. 81, al, no
About 81 900 900 more was taken from
the assessment roll in smaller amounts.
Some of the complaints made were con-
sidered reasonable by the assessor, and
he agreed to them without protest, but
most of the way City Assessor NAL
lard fought hard for his figures, and
in the main he was sustained by the
board of equalization.
The reductions made yesterday were
on matters the board had taken under
advisement, and was the last session
the board will hold this year. Some of
these reductions were not made with
out struggle, and three times yester-
day it was the deciding vote of Presi-
dent Pease that saved deeper cuts
than were made.
The three colleges, University of
Southern California, Occidental and St
Vincent's, were given fiat reduction
of 40 per cent on their assessments. An
effort was made to reduce the school
maintained by the Germania Turn
verein on Figueroa street in the same
proportion, but President Pease's vote
decided the matter, allowing a reduc-
ton of 25 per cent for this institution.

sessments made by the board will not
exceed S2,500, 900, when the assessor has
presented his final figures, while last
year the total amount reduced was
S5,527, ,045. Because the board was not
so ready to give big reductions this
year the city will have much more
money to expend than it has the past
year.
The total assessment when the board
Of equalization had finished chopping
1t to pieces last year was $2,650, O,272.
This year it will be about $10,0OO0OO
more. and this will make a big differ
ence with the 81 assessment, with prob
ably 25 cents extra added for bond in
terests and sinking funds.
w. E. Dunns pleasant and polished
statement to the board Wednesday had
its effect. for $s00,O00 was reduced from
the total assessment of the Pacific Elec-
trio railway. This was the only rail-
way that received any reduction at all,
and this was only about one-fourth of
the amount demanded.

vantage of any and all Improvement
that may have bearing on the mining
is undoubtedly true at this
time. Not only is interest in the dis
trict on the part of the general public,
both at home and abroad, greater at
the present time than ever before, but
IL Is also doing big things-attracting
the attention of all the world with Its
splendid output of copper, the great
tonnage of ore ii is mining with steam
shoyels and the astonishingly low costs
which it is maintaining for it's output.
In view of which it is no wonder that
things are moving here, that we are
daily attracting mining visitors, that
investment in the camp is constantly
widening, thai new enterprises are
coming about, new combinations be-
ing made and an era of greatly extend
ed prospecting and development opera
lions dawning. The News has steadily
held that when the awakening did oc-
cur in the camp succeeding the en-
forced lassitude brought by the panic
and subsequent deterrent effects, 1t
would be a big one and that a great
evea of ground in the camp would come
under sharp, decisive exploration. We
believe that the awakening is now
underway and that the winter will see
it in full swing.

-nnouncement of the intention to
construct the new Ely-Goldfield rail-
road, now expected at any time, will
put a great Gaping on the present
strong upward movement which the
camp is experiencing. 1t will bring a
rush of new capital n enterprise to
the camp on the double quick to take
advantage of the much increased activ-
ity that will be brought about here.
AS for the railroad itself, it will be the
biggest thing that ever happened the
Ely district and White Pine county at
large. 1t will mean the employment
of several thousand more men here
within a few years, in operation OF
the custom reduction work which will
certainly attend it's coming and in
handling the big business that the road
will speedily attain in handling a great
tonnage of ore and a large agricul-
tural and stock business from the ter
ritory which it taps to say nothing of a
big passenger business and important
through freight traffic received from
its connections to the south.

No new town in the country has
made as much progress since the fall
of 1907 as has East Ely. Also it is
holding it's gait and adding a little
more steam every day. Increase of its
school attendance from sixty children
at the opening of the term to above a
hundred at the present time is an eN-
cellent indication of this. Very large
increase in its industrial activities,
now affording a monthly payroll of
above $40, 900, is a certainty, the Ne
vada Northern now having doubling of
it's shops underway while the new rail-
road shops are to be looked forward to
along with other gains in the indus
trial direction. Home owning in East
Ely has been made possible to every
man in the camp, which is another big
feature to be considered in contempla-
ton of it's future growth.

SOCIETY ENTERTAIN MENTS.

A novel idea that is to be adopted in
one of the coast cities for entertain
ments this season might well be used
by society everywhere.
1t is true that the persons who orig
mated his plan are wintering at one
of he large resorts of southern Cali
~fornia, and have an abundance of both
time and money, but surely this need
not interfere with the smart set,
which is likewise amply provided w.
lucre and leisure. Anyway, the ques-
ton of time would not interfere, as the
events planned in the western city are
to be evening affairs, when both men
and women are at leisure. 1t all came
about in a talk concerning new plans
for entertainment and all of the late
schemes of gay Paree," and the social
centers of the east were gone over in
the hope of finding some pleasing way
of passing the long winter evenings.
Finally she of the intrepid spirit
spake boldly to those assembled, ask
ing why always borrow some plan
devised by our eastern cousins or those
on the continent? Can nothing new
originate in the west, that country in
which civilization itself is newer than
in any part of the United States?"
And, with one accord, they all fell to
dreaming dreams, that We're all to be
their very w and the plan for a
Colonia club was the result. The word
/ Colonial, itself, bespeaks an olden time,
it is true, but one must remember that
there is nothing new under the sum-"
and so newness really means only the
first revival of old ideas.
The old c~olonia costumes are to be
revived, and anything that savors of
the present day is tabooed. First come
the costumes, and for both men and
women the old colonial style of dress is
to be in order. 1t is said that certain
maidens are already fearful that their
hears will no longer be a~damantine
against the pleadings of various
youths, when the sombre evening cloth
ing 50 long in vogue for men is dis
carded in favor of the powdered wigs,
the satin suits and the big buckled
shoes that made the colonial gentle
man so picturesque. 1t is rumored
that even the staid old bachelors are
acknowledging that they no longer
hope to withstand the charms of the
maidens whereabouts when they appear
in the quaint costumes of the early
days.
The form of entertainment is also
to ring true to the name of the club
and to be purely colonial in character.
Forfeits and other colonial games will
be played. The minuet will be revived
and the gay young folks will weave
through the mazes of the Virginia reel.
Nor are the guests to DE whisked to
and from the parties in the swift autos
that V been so long considered the
slmar mode of conveyance. my lady"
will ride to the club meetings in the
old-fashioned coach and four, with
powdered footman to assist her from
the carriage.
But best of all is the going back to
the courtly manner of those early
times, when every man was a knight
errant to his lady fair, and there was a
delightful chivalry that appeals strong
ly to the fair sex of the later day, when
in the mad rush of progress time is sell
dom found for even the ordinary cour-
tesies of life.
