AN EXTRAORDINARY STRIKE SITUATION.

1N HE labor strike situation in France becomes more serious.
From the railroads the strike has extended to the subway,
street ear and other public service employees, and is spread
ing among the large trades, which have begun a general strike. Inc
effect of this threatening movement is keenly felt abroad. lnterna-
tional travel and commerce are halted and perishable goods in
transit are lost to the owners. Business is parayzed, food supplies
are cut off, and by the stoppage of transportation multltudes OF
people in no wise concerned in the strike trouble are deprived of
work and wages. The governments only resort is the military to
run the railroad trains, and that means unskilful handling, witt
attendant accidents and loss of life and property, with also nevi-
table violence. If there is famine in the cities mob outrages must
occur. II is a loosely constructed social edifce in which such chaos
is possible, and the present deplOrable situation has arisen, like
Jonah's gourd, in a night.

a DEPARTMENT OF SUPPLIES.

~ DEPARTMENT for the purchase of all supplies for the city
IN is not a new suggestion. 1t was made several years ago.
No interest was taken in the proposition, and it was
dropped. The committee on municipal affairs of the Board of Trade
repews il. and the legal committee of the board is to draft a legjs
lative bill for the creation of such a department. A genuine bust
les department under capable management could save the city
thousands of dollars annually in the purchase of supplies for all
the departments of the city government, for it would buy every
thing in bulk at wholesale prices and could regulate the use of the
supplies so as to prevent extravaganza and waste. Governor Fort
strongly recommended the same system for the State government
in a message to the Legislature and pointed out the large economy
that would be effected by it, Newark may yet set the example for
the State government. 4Ns t~

me- WILEY is PROBABLY MISKNFORMED.

tn REPRESENTATIVE WILEY tells people at the Fifth ward
Inn meeting in regard to high prices that "these conditions exist
in Canada and Europe" and that in England prices are
higher than they are here" Mr.. Wiley was either banking heavily
upon the credulity of his hearers or he is strangely misinformed.
Statistical comparisons of the prices of necessaries here and in all
European countries show that American prices are from 20 to 80
per cent. higher. The same comparison obtains as between the
United States and Canada. You can buy Chicago dressed beef much
cheaper. in English cities and in Canada than in American cities.
For that matter. iron and steel manufactured by the steel trust are
sold at lower prices in England and Germany than in the United
States. Nor is there any denial that American trustmade goods
are put on the foreign market at lower prices than in the. United
States. If the prices of necessaries charged to consumers in the
United States prevailed in Europe, there would be starvation and
revolution

The pilgrimage to the birthplace of
Grover Cleveland yesterday was Sig
nif1cant. It evidenced the fact that
the people are awakening to a ems of
their rights; that they are turning
away from the specious pleas which
have so long misled and misguided
them, and are going back to the prin-
ciples which were so s%trikingly exem-
plihed in the life and character of the
former President. Many graceful
tributes were paid to Cleveland's
memory, but from Woodrow Wilson
came one that was not only gracious
and fitting, but was most appropriate
in these stirring days Of new nation
alism." He said that the pulse of the
people was quickened, and the senti-
ment of patriotism was warmed and
~enlivened by a visit to the birthplace

Woodrow Wilson continues IN his
triumphant campaign. He battles as
well from the ground as from the ros-
trum. He mingles with the crowd in
a truly democratic spirit, displaying
always an attitude of engaging good
fellowship. In his formal addresses
he shows his mastery of the prob
lens which confront the State and
nation, and gives cogent reasons why
their solution lies only with the Dem
cratic party. His criticism OF the
Republican party is clothed in soft
less convincing. No offense may be
taken at his assertion that insurgency
is alive in that party today because,
not by new policies. but by adherence
to old ones, 'it has separated itself
from the enlightened interests of the
present moment" His campaign is an
anomaly. He depends upon reason,
not corruption. He has thrown aside
craftsmanship. His appeals are to the
entire people. He is going over the
State as the champion of the EN-
lightened interest" Each speech is
unanswerable in it's force and con-
clusiveness. From an apparently in
exhaustible mine of knowledge he is
constantly drawing forth new mate
rial. He never gives his opponent an
opportunity to get abreast of him.
Attended by admiration and unbound
ed enthusiasm, he is in the full swing
of a marvellous campaign that will end

SHIPPING LEAD AND ZINC,

The Prairie Flower mine, in Good
springs district, Is opening even larger

Pine, extent of development consider
cred, according to j. b. Jensen. The
Prairie Flower, which is now operated
by Jessie Knight, nephew of the Provo
Wizard, has a body of solid galena ore
six feet thick, of unknown lateral di-
mansions. From the property at this
time is being shipped a carload a week
of ore which carries so per cent and 20
per cent lead.
Operations at the Yellow Pine mine

MASON PASS Mine
NOW SHIPPING ORE

YERINGTON, Oct. ia carload
of ore from the lease of Constantine
Brothers and Matt at Mason Pass went
out this week to the mill at Silver City.
1t was a number of weeks ago that the
ore was struck on this property, but
owing to numerous handicaps produc-
tion has been slow. Owing to the fact
that careful sampling has not been
done, the value of this shipment is not
known, and the value is variously es-
timated at amounts ranging from $50
to $50 per ton.
1t is thought, however, that the ore
now being produced and sacked will
run much better than that, as the grade
of the ore has materially improved Of
late.
This higher grade of ore is coming
from a drift to the east at a depth Of
81 feet. The drift is now out about
20 feet and in the face there is a
streak of ore, varying from 8 10 is
inches in width. WHICH will go about
800 per ton, judging from the pan
nings. This is a great improvement
over that which was encountered in
the shaft.
If the present showing improves, II
even keeps up it's present standard,
this property will develop into d
mighty good mine. AS one miner, VINO
was out to see it this week, remarked
on his return: "There is a mighty
fine showing in that lease, and if il
were a hundred miles out in the desert

present the c~oncentrator is well in ad-
vance of the smelter, having a large
pile Of concentrates stored and await
ing smelling. This is good precaution
as winter is coming on, and probably
some delay will be caused by freezing
OF ore and hauling to the concentration.
AT the smelter, which is composed Of
five reverberatories and necessary
roasting plant, one blast furnace and
-four concentration stands, everything
is running smoothly. This smelter,
which is admirably laid out, is one of
the most up to date and complete IN

The ore now coming TO the concea-

RICH CAR OF
ORE FROM RED HILLS DIST.

ELY, Oct. Is. = Netting the fortu-
nate owner in the neighborhood of $780,
900 after all smelling charges are paid,
the richest consignment of silver-lead
ores ever shipped from White Pine
county was forwarded to the Salt Lake
shelters last Thursday from the b naa-
"a properties owned by A. Dietlaff in
the Red Hills district. The ffty-ton
shipment will average 46 per cent lead,
700 ounces of silver and So in gold.
Having devoted their energies to the
opening up of new territory where It
was believed that shipping ore of an
excellent quality would be encountered,
the Dietlaffs were finally rewarded for
their efforts. In making connections
between the principal working shaft
and a tunnel driven for the ostensible
purpose of tapping the large ore bodies
known to exist on those properties. the
owners uncovered the deposit of hign-
grade silver-lead ore, which formed the
nucleus of the recent shipment.
Although the Dietlaff mines have
been outputting quite heavily since
their location three years ago, the ca
reer of production from those proper
ties will be started in earnest, and an

1t has been the most consistent ship
per of lead silver ores in the country.
Shipments from those mines were start
ed within three months after the
claims were taken up by Mr.. Dietlaf.
Owing to the fact that the produc-
tion of ore from the recognized silver
lead properties iii Utah is not up to
the standard, the Salt Lake smelters
have been securing the country for ore
of the character that is being extract
ed from the Dietlaff holdings.

Big INTERESTS BUY
ELY CENTRAL STOCK

Following the raid On the brokerage
firm of Sheftels &Co. of New York
interests closely allied to the Guggen'
helms would take advantage of the
tremendous selling pressure on Ely
Central stock to corral a liberal slice
of the company, if not the actual stock
control itself, says the Salt Lake Tr,5-
une. An inquiry sent east yesterday
via the Pollock wires brought the re-
Spouse that some of the strongest brok-
erage firms of New York and Boston
are quietly picking up the stock, pre-.
sumably for Nevada Consolidated in
terests.
Regardless of the intrinsic merits Of
the Ely Central ground from a copper
ore standpoint, its 489h acres of terri
tory would be one of the most satisfac-
tory acquisitions the Nevada Consoll-
dated company possibly could secure.
This large acreage cuts the Ruth mine
squarely in two, and it extends clear
across the monzonite zone, being SO To-
Gated that the Nevada Consolidated
company, so it is reported, must extend
its railroad tracks across the property
in order to steam shovel mine its best
ground. A few days before the Shelf
tells crash, the Scheftels' New York pa
per intimated that the Ely Central
company, which was a Sheftels pro-
motion, would very likely be involved
in a law suit against the Nevada Con-
solidated company owing to these raii-
road track rights.
The Ely Central history has been a
stormy one. The first of this year It
became a great feature on the New
York curb, selling up to several dollars
per share. The Engineering and Min
ing Journal came out with a hot roast
for the company, its officials, methods
and even its ground, and the stock
dropped Mt a dollar a time to consid-
erably less than 81 a share. The
| claims are located where they should
hold the ore of Ely, but whether they
have ore or not, their location alone is
well worth considering by a company
doing this on the scale that the Nevada
Consolidated Company Is.
