NEvkDRs POPULATION

z
been confined to the decade cover
ing the Civil war, as already
lnstanced. Nevada, which will
this year probably exceed in relative
growth any of the 46 states land
two territories, except Oklahoma,
was subjected to a waning move
ment in population in the decade
fro"" 1880 to 1890. A tabulation
of the figures will best tell the
story: In 1860, before Nevada
had even been recognized as a
territory, its population was 6957.
This was due to the bonanza dis
covery of the Comstock lode. In
March, 1861, Nevada territory
came into exi tence and in October,
1864 it was admitted to statehood.
AS a result of the rise of the Com
stock lode, its population increased
to 42,491 in 1870 and was still in
creasing and reached 62, &c in 1880.
Then came the waning of the Com
stock lode and the discrediting of
silver, both of which factors caused
depopulation in Nevada. In 1890
its population was reduced to 49,
761 and in 1900 the same influences
had caused it to decline still more
to Matchmaking it 1856 less
than it was 80 years before.
The decade closing this year has
been, however, a most notable one
in the history of copper mining. In
the progress made by the red
metal, Nevada has conspicuously
participated. The opening up and
development of Ely, Yerington,
and other copper camps have given
the state a permanency which it
did not rest upon in the days of
silver and gold, even with the riches
of the Comstock lode. While
Goldfield and Tonopah remain large
gold, silver and lead producers
the production Of copper has
reached approximately a parity in
MISUNDERSTANDING its de-
pressed price-with q gold and
silver, and the future indicates
that it will outstrip in that state
all the other metals combined.
1t is interesting to look oyer the
records and note the states which
are above the average of 1913 per
cent for the country at large. Ari-
zona-still territory-shows an
increase over 1900 of 1872 per cent !;
Colorado, 1874 per cent; Florida,
8 IL per cent; Idaho, 45.2 per
cent; Illinois,, 2O.6 per cent; New
York, 21:9 per cent; North Dakota,
1876 per cent; Oklahoma, 322.1
per cent Oregon. 26.6 per cent;
Rhode Island, "a per cent; South
Dakota, 26.7 per cent; Texas, 1855
per cent; Utah, 1913 Washington,
81 per cent; West Virginia. 2O.4
per cent. Alaska is estimated as
having increased 1915 per cent, and
Hawaii, Ais per cent. To this
estimate should be added the forth
coming figures of Nevada, which
will probably place its inhabitants
in excess of Alaska, with it's popu-
lation of 95, 1872, but not remove it
from the foot of the list among
the states and territories in point
of population. --Gavigan's Financia al

WINNIPEG, Dec. 23.-Striking di-
rectly at the pocket of the street rail-
way company here, with which they
are at war, 900 motormen and con-
ductors are covering the city with
sleighs, buses and hacks, and at 5
cents ride are capturing the nickels
the company is losing.
Few cars are running, and those
that are on the rails are, nearly
empty. the passengers much per-
ferring a dash behind the tinkling
sleigh bells to the ordinary ride they
got before the strike began.
So far there has been no violence in
the strike, and mild weather has pre-
vented any suffering through the
stopping of the city's ordinary means
of transportation.
The company started twenty cars
this week with imported strikebreak-
ers as motormen and college students
as conductors, ar
Each car carried two policemen.

LABOR CHAMPION IN THE
HOUSE EXPOSES TRICK OF
MOON BILL SUPPORTERS

WASHINGTON, D. c., Dec. o.
Not for a minute has the Cannon ma
chine released it's grip on the house,
proof of which appeared when a score
Of labor amendments to the notorious
Taft-Moon injunction bill were this
this week ruled out Of order by the
speaker and Moons bill was discov-
cred to have practically usurped all
the time on all the calendar Wednes-
days to the possible end of the session.
Calendar Wednesday is supposed to
be the one free day Of the congress-
1onal week upon which the. iron rule
of program" is removed, and there
fore upon calendar Wednesday labor
members pin all their hopes Of getting
an opportunity to debate and fore
ing a. vote upon measures. of interest
to the working class. :.
Hughes of New Jersey was first to
see the plot behind the 203 pages of
the Moon bill, every page loaded to
eat up calendar Wednesdays, and he
was on his feet with an objection.
IF the chair cares to know any,
thing about my object in raising the
bill will probably take up every cal
endar Wednesday between now and
the end Of the session.
II do not think the chair cares to
hear me, SO far as enlightenment is
concerned" continued Hughes with
pointed sarcasm, land I am satisfied
to stand here and hold the floor while
the chair is informing himself from
another source"
A ripple of applause followed this
drive at the speaker who regularly
receives his instructions on rulings
from the able man from Maine al
ways standing at his elbow.
After a few moments wait the prop
er rule to crush the belligerent
Hughes was found and passed up to
Speaker Cannon who automatically
removed the obstacle from the ad-
ministration's path.
But Hughes is a fighter who never
knows when he Is whipped and backed
by a score of others he worried Moon
to a state of desperation so that when
Wilson Of Pennsylvania finally intro
duced his anti-injunction amendment
1t was agreed that at some time on
some calendar Wednesday this labor
measure would receive the considera-
ton Of the house. On that day labor
can count it's friends, who will be few,
and number its enemies, who will be
many.

500 Babes Born in PennilesS
Homes of CHICAGO Strikers

Chicago, Dec 2s.-Since the be-
ginning of the strike Of 10000 gar
ment workers a month ago, 500 babies
have been born among the strikers,
according to records kept by the re-
lief committee. The committee now
furnishes a supply Of milk daily to
$500 babies whose parents are on
strike.
Every day there are $500 loaves
Of bread and $500 pounds Of pancake
flour distributed to the hungry idle.

ufacturers are yielding to public opin-
ION is rumored among the leaders Of

change should be made in the GRIM
tnal law for petty offenses and that
it should be administered in a more
progressive manner. That all per-
sons convicted of crime which calls
for Jail sentence at the present time
should be furnished with work by
the municipality and their earnings
safeguarded for their families or for
other useful purposes.
Z. We are in favor Of adequate
public parks and play grounds for
the children and believe that the
school houses should be at once util-
lied as social centers under proper
direction and supervision, as has been
done in the cities Of Rochester and
Milwaukee, and that steps to that end
be at once taken.
8. That we are in favor of taking
legislation to enable the city to ac-
quire all natural monopolies and all
publicly used utilities and that no
delay or subterfuges as in the past,
be longer tolerated.
9. We severely criticize the Re-
publican and Democratic parties for
their Vacillating course on the Ques-
ton Of municipal ownership of such
monopolies and public utilities, and
we hold them responsible for the fact
that the city of Duluth is rapidly
falling behind other cities of similar
size in this respect.
10. We, believe that the city
should. through the board Of educa-
ton, take steps to provide night
schools for the education of young
men and women who are unable to
attend the day schools or are too old
to do so.
II. We recommend the establish
ment Of free employment bureaus and
the prohibition of all others.
IL. That all corporations be COM
PEELED to pay taxes on a basis of
equality with persons.
10. We demand the absolute free
dom of speech, press and assembly.
II. We demand the immediate ex-
tension of the public collection and
disposition of garbage:
Is. We believe in the carrying on
and conducting of the city's affairs in
the interests of the Working and pro-
ducing classes. and that the govern
ment should be so administered as to
promote the building of homes for
the people and so that they can be-
come owners of and maintain such
homes and that taxation be so ad-
justed as to fall most lightly upon the
homes of that class Of people. The
mere fact that a city may become
great or prosperous is. Of no especial
consequence If that greatness and in
crease of population is to be accom-
panied by greater increase in the
want. poverty and insecurity of the
people. We do not ask the vote Of
any person who is not interested in
the greater moral and material ad-
vancement Of the people as a whole,
but we do ask the votes Of those
who stand for these two propositions,
the establishment Of which is the aim
and purpose of Socialism as repre-
sented by the Public Ownership
party.

Mayor Busse and the council commit
tee toward settlement, of the strike,
held several conferences here.
1t was said that in spite Of consti-
tutlonal prohibitions against dealing
with labor unions contained in the
constitution of the association, the
manufacturers are preparing to sweep
aside all barriers so that a plan may
be devised by which negotiations for
a settlement of the strike can be
opened.
A large number of strikers COM
planned to the officials of the union
that non-union men and private de-
tectives in the employ of tailoring
concerns are armed with revolvers
and knives and display the weapons
at the slightest provocation.

The wool sales Of the past week

it is evident that the average clips
are going at twenty cents, although
the prices on several of the large
ones have not been made public.
The w. H. Smith clip. south of
town, sold the first Of the week to
Thos. Riley for 20 cents, and the
clip of Adolph Seiverson, of Trot-

600 lbs, respectively, were not made
known, and they were bought by

However, according to Miles City

reputation as a market topper on
wool and the truth in the latter
statement is substantiated by the
