slaughter house which would sicken
the reader and cause him to turn with
disgust from any thought Of eating

given informing the jury to disregard
the remarks.

Salt Lake, Sept. 19.-The second day
in the miners strike at Bingham be-
gan with the strikers in armed posses
sion Of all the mines. There was des-
ultory firing all night but no injury
to persons or property. Governor Spry

morning and went Immediately to the
executive office. where he called a
conference Of the sheriff, secretary Of

Yesterday some of the Bingham mine
operators made representations to

which caused him to arrange meeting
with c. s. Tingey, secretary Of state;
A. r. Barnes, attorney general; John
X. Hardy, secretary to the governor:
r. C. Gemmell assistant manager Of
the Utah Copper company, and Clar-
ence e. Allen, assistant mine manager
of the United States company. Cover
nor Spry was in the southern part Of
the state keeping some speaking en-
gagements.
At this meeting, held in Salt Lake.
the situation was discussed and a state
ment was telegraphed to Governor
Spry Sheriff Sharp made no request
l for state troops, but indicated to the
governor that the forces at his COM
mand would not be sufficient to con-
troll the thousands of idle men in this
camp.
Sheriff Sharp dispatched reinforce
ments to his little army of deputies.
with a force numbering 35 men the
officers in camp started a party on the
rounds OF the mines to draw the fres
which had been left burning under
many Of the boilers. This party had
scarcely started up the mountain on
which most Of the mines are located
when bullets began to spatter on the
hillside in front of them and 1t was
discovered the strikers had been busy
building breastworks in commanding
positions at each side Of the narrow
Rulch in which this town hides itself
The firing and the menacing shouts
Of the fortified miners convinced the
officers that the boiler fires should be
left unattended for the time being and
they left.
Made Informal Demand.
The Bingham miners made an infor-
NAL demand several weeks ago for a
flat increase Of wages In all depart
ments Of 50 cents a day. On September
/ the Utah Copper company announced
an increase of 25 cents a day for all
labor, and the other employers adopted
the same scale. This was not salts
factory to a majority Of the men, and
agitation for the full 50-cont raise con-
tinued. Ten days ago a union meeting
was held. at which strike vote was
ordered. The strike proposition car
ried overwhelmingly. and the result Of
the ballot was forwarded to the execu-

AS TO THE FUTURE.

Henry Cews a New York banker sees some
good in the future. lie says so himself. But
after figuring the rosy side Of the diary of
tomorrow he throws fly in our cup of JOY by
limiting at a lot of fearful things that will make
bankers extremely careful and investors mighty
shy The presidential year is the principal bogie
man. according TO the Clew lights He figures
also that there will be more unrest among the
laboring classes and that there is possibility of
more strikes especially in the coal regions. In
recent statement he points out these promising
conditions:
From the economic standpoint the outlook is
slightly better than year ago. Trade conditions
are sound Liquidation has been thorough There
is little or no overproductiOn. Stocks of mer
chandisc are generally light Credit is sound.
Commodity prices still high but often de
Ginning Labor is generally well employed and
getting good wages These favorable
factors. >
Just as we are figuring that 1912 is going to
| be dandy where the road to fortune is going to
be straight and easy to travel, Clews digs us IN
the ribs and awakens us from our dream with
this bit of Encouragement
',The mfavorable conditions are the unrest
of labor and the prospect of fresh strikes this
year especially in the coal trade. From the
political standpoint the outlook is far from en-
couraging This is presidential year. There
is much social and political unrest Radical ten
denotes are running strong and while parties
are maneuverng for public favor all sorts of err
rate and threatening proposals are imminent.
Undoubtedly there will he more talk than action.
Under such conditions capital is necessarily
.imid and new enterprises will be checked until
: the final outcome be fairly guessed
We thus have a conflict between favorable
economic conditions and nfavorable political
I conditions. In time the economic will prevail
9 but in the interim the political may rule, which
means cautious but hopeful policy for 1912
These opinions are based on the Assumption
OF international peace, though it must be adj
mitted the foreign situation contains seeds Of

THE BUSINESS OUTLOOK.

1t was once held that presidential years We're
ALWAYS poor years for business, and the facts IN
the ease usually warranted such condition. As
disturbing causes, however, these elections and
other political conditions are becoming farther
and farther removed, and high financial authori-
ties are Of the opinion that 1912 will be good
year for business. The past year, taking the
country as a whole, was not to say record
breaker as far as trade or prosperity was con
cerned Neither was ii year of hard times.
Bradstreet S annual summary shows that while
HE first eight months of the year was time
~ uncertainty, disturbances and depression, the
last quarter was characterized by Tightening of
the repression and the birth of spirit OF " con
Servative eheerfulnesS. 6
Crop conditions were satisfactory and sound
except in parts of the northwest, where there
was shortage and in the south, where an over
plus of cotton resulted in low prices.
These two exceptions, together with the ap
proaching presidential campaign will be among
lie problems with which the business of the new
Year will have to contend,
The chief feature however of the yearly sum
mareS is their reference to the fact that the bust
ness Of the country is showing less and less ten
dency to be affected by politics and the activit,
If politicians.
Bradstreets calls attention to it as follows
1t is probably true that under existing cir
eumstaneeS neither presidential election nor
prospect Of tariff revision creates the feelni
OF unSettlement that il formerly did.
And the following is the opinion of anOthe
authority on the financial affairs of the country
Not even presidential election will be abb
to make business in 1912 bad. There may b
hampered and Wall street may not enjoy the yea
as much as it might, but the real business o
the country is firm basis, and is going I

There is growing disposition on the part o
lac American people to disregard the rantin

as il affects the regulation of business.

THE WISDOM OF EXPERT ADVICE.

1911 is estimated at $20,370000. OF this amount
81 10000 is to be credited to the gold produe-

in copper output over 1910 of more than five
times the figures for that year. In addition to
gold and copper, Alaska mines and quarries IN
1911 produced silver, tin, coal, marble and gyp-
sum to an estimated value of 100000. The
total value of the mineral production from the
territory since 1880 is $206,000000, more than
