MARKETS, MINING AND METALS
GALL OFF MADE
ON MORE SALES
Of centennial

Sell no more Centennial Stock
was a message received by wire yes
terday by Secretary Boreman of the
Ely Centennial from President e. w.
Griffiths, who is now in Salt Lake en-
route to New York and Boston on
business pertaining to the company.
Ever since the company put an al
lotment of 10000 shares on the mar
ket at Is cents, which was subscrib-
ed in one day, there has been a heavy
demand for it locally and on the out
side but very little could be had.
Mr.. Grifiths' telegram puts a final
stop to the sale of the stock.
There have been several reports
in local brokerage circles that there
were 400 shares of the stock float
ing around that could be obtained at
reduced prices. Repeated efforts on
the part of a number of people who
desire stock in the company failed
to result in a sale, the stock not be-
ing forthcoming. From the same
there have at various times
been reports Of similar character for
effect on various issues. All have
proved out the same way.
The conditions prevailing at the
Ely Centennial are of very favorable
character. The tunnel, which is be-
ing driven to cut the several known
veins at depth of around 500 feet, is
now in $50 feet. 1t is figured by
Foreman Sol Snyder that he should
encounter vein No. 1 on the dip at
IT'S feet in and indications are that

expenses
The money so collected. he admit

between Sam H. Nichols and himself;
but as to the total amount obtained
from the 1872 companies admitted
since 1905 he declared his inability to
give even an approximate estimate.
Admissions such as this on cross
examination materially strengthened

parts Of the northwest and middle
and eastern states, who are eager for
the position as housekeeper ON his
new ranch. He has also received a
half hundred proposals Of marriage
from women in New York, Chicago,
Boston, and other large centers. To
say that Hyde is embarrassed is put
ting it mildly. He says the flood of
letters was started by the publication
of his photograph in a number of
eastern and western newspapers at
the time of the drawing, when the
correspondent announced that he
needed only helpmate to make life
complete.

ayers did not materially weaken
Schively's direct testimony on the
perjury count, although he became
worked up to high pitch of excite
ment.
Schiyely Admits Celebrating.
On the perjury charge Manager
Edge led Schively up to the time of
the meeting in Spokane when it is
alleged he signed the Ward notes. Re-
plying to question Schively adm tilted
having been Celebrating.
"The fact is" said he thereafter. 81

lations of the trustees on having been
elected president, if the bookkeeper
or a trustee had asked me to sign
any papers as president should prob
ably have done so without looking at
them"
Schively Attacks Grand Jury.
Following up this lead, Edge work
ed Schively into a state of strong ex-
element in demanding why he had
not told the grand jury about being
intoxicated. Schively declared he had
not been given a chance.
DO you mean to say that the grand
jury did not give you An opportunity
to give your version of what trans
pired in that meeting?" demanded
Edge.
That's just what l mean to say?"
shouted Schively, and he leaped to his
feet and raised his clenched fist in
emphasis. He was about to continue,
when Edge interposed with, Now,

Pleads Failure Of Memory.
Throughout his testimony on the
perjury charge Schively answered
most questions with extreme caution.
Nearly every statement was qualified
with the words "to the best of my
recollection" On many particulars
of details he pleaded a failure Of
memory.
AS to the other articles Schively
was cross-examined by Assistant At
torney General Lee, and while Schiv-
ely's admissions were more damaging
in his case than those secured on the
perjury charge the answers were CIV
en- calmly and positively.
A great many of Lees questions
were directed to the matter of the
alleged departmental policy of collect
ing $500 fees in advance of examina-
ton from companies seeking admis-
sion to the state.
Couldn't Estimate His Rakeoff.
What sums were collected in this
manner since 1905, when, Schively
declares, the policy was put in force,
he declared an inability to estimate.
His attention was called to his testi-
mony on direct examination that 1872
companies had been admitted since
1905 and was asked if each paid
5000 or a total OF $4,000.
In reply Schively insisted that each
company was not charged 5000. East
ern companies that had Coast gener-
al agencies were admitted for 500.
Asked If his half of the proceeds
of these collections had amounted t.
$4,000 Schively declared that he could
not say whether the amount was
more or less than $1,000.
His attention was then called to
the articles of impeachment, which
specifically charge that he collected
$4,000 for examinations that were
not made ....t
What did you do with your half?"
asked Lee. 1T was largely spent in
these proceedings"
In other words, it was not used in
the interest of the insurance depart
ment. but for personal expenses"

THE TRUE SPIRIT or COMPROMISE

President Taft spoke in the Mormon
temple ut Salt Lake City the other day.
His audience was largely interested in
beet sugar, and therefore opposed to
the President Philippine policy. After
telling the people that their govern
ment was necessarily government OF
compromise he impressed the import
ance of cultivating a spirit of toler-
ance, and referring to the sugar ques-
tion he said:
''Now, just for an instance, because
/ always like to deal with delicate sub
jects-take the matter of beet sugar
! am interested IN helping along some
people for whom was a long time the
only representative, and that kind of
informal representative, in Washing
ton, by letting some of their SUGAR.
was in favor of letting all their sugar
into this market, because / did not
think it would hurt you out here bit.
'You are going ahead so rapidly that
when | talk with man out here and
he is not thinking of the tariff, he will
tell me tales of the manufacture of
sugar that will just make me think /
want to invest all my money in it at
once. But what did we do? We com
promised, and we said to the people of
the Philippine islands, we will let you
into our market to the extent of $780,
900 tons, and no more, and then the
home industry will go on; will not
be injured certainly by that importa-
ton.
"And we made the compromise. Now
that Is what we do in congress and
through the executive all the time, and
while theoretically that may seem a
rule of thumb method of government
in the long run as you look back through
the history of the country you will find
that the course pursued which was the
result of compromising the views of
the majority into one sound and mid
die course, was much better than if we
should follow some doctrinaire and tried
to follow his theory to the uttermost.
In other words, we can trust to the
common sense of the American people
through their representatives to work
out the problems we have, and in that
working out to give effect to the views
of all the people, not all the effect to
the view of every one, but to give some
effect to the views of all.
That is really all there is to the tariff
question. The people of the west dom
want to hear anything about free sugar
or zinc, or any other western product.
1t is compromise proposition from
start to finish and the only equitable
basis is "the greatest good for the
greatest number"

Madison Journal: The "wets" and
the 'drys" will soon be running a close
race in this state. According to COM
pilation of statistics made by a local
newspaper from the reports of the
clerks of the cities, villages and towns
there are 1923 wet and 612 dry towns in
Wisconsin. Of the 612 dry towns liquor
was voted out in 271, while in the other
339 no ballot ever has been taken. The
total anti-hcense vote at the last cleo
ton was 36,919, while the vote cast for
president in 1908 was 454, AL. These
figures are combated by the Anti-Sa-
loon league, which says that the state
blue book, recently issued, shows less
towns than the returns received by the
newspaper statisticians. There are
s, 4Sl saloons in the state.

Former Governor Hoard, who travelled
across Wisconsin as the guest of Pre-
sident Taft, two weeks ago says of the
president and his journeyings: Pre-
sident Taft is becoming immensely pop
ular with the people in his tour of the
states and his very sensible endeavor
to get at first hand a proper under
standing of the needs of this great
country. When he occupies the presi-
dental chair next winter, he will have
a better general understanding of the
economic situation than'any,member of
either house of congress, something
which will be of great value to him in
aiding good and discouraging bad leg
islation.
