Mining is going TO receive the big
end of the consideration given 10
new investments during the next few
years. II Is logical that such should
be the case. Mining has stood up
better under the lash of hard times
than any other industry. II has kept
ahead with its dividends and has
ground out millions upon millions

Howard Huntington, stated that under
the new schedule as outlined above al
men who have been in the employ OF
the several companies for six years
would receive the increase of cents
an hour being the same pay as fot
those men who had been in service fol-
fifteen years. Aside from the general
advance Of l cent an hour, the feature
of the gift is that TO enjoy the highest
wages paid by the system, 30 cents an
hour, the employe will only be required
to remain in continuous service sis
years, instead of fifteen years, as here
tOfore.
If readers of The Herald are curious
to know just how the men feel about
the advance in salary just ask any OF
them on the cars.
Two dollars and 10 cents more a week
for those who have been on the cars
for six years means a whole lot for the
wife and the children, and at every
fireside it goes without saying that none
but the kindlest expressions are heard
when the name of Mr.. Huntington is
spoken.
