the mines for sustenance. The
strike has affected in direct
way, counting only miners and 9TH
er men thrown out OF work with
their families. more than 1000. 900
persons.
II has paralyzed practically the
whole business life OF the nation.
Prices OF food have gone up and
fuel is practically unobtainable. The
railroads have curtailed operations
and shipping has been held up and
every branch of industry stopped to
some extent
Striking miners number more
than a million and there is another
million OF men out whose factories
cannot run without fuel The fam

upon their small savings, or If out

trades union. However. there are
many men out OF work who are not
connected with any union and dc
not draw any strike benefit and
these with their families are the
greatest sufferers Even the richer
trades unions are beginning to fee

upon them for strike benefit pay

WORLD WIDE STRIKE.
MAY SOON OCCUR
THE INJUSTICE OF
THELATE TAXLEVY"

Under the above heading the
Rhyolite Herald which is printed
in the Tribune Office at Goldfield,
attacks the county commissioners
for raising the Rhyolite tax rate
- cents. and does not state the
reason of the raise 1t would have
the people believe a great injustice
and hardship had been heaped up
on the taxpayers of Rhyolite. The
cause of the Is cent raise in the
southern city taxation was owing to
the fact that the citizens of that
place built a large school house
during its boom days that cost
100000. An act of the legislature
gave permission to bond that school
district for that sum, which was
done and the bonds sold. These
bonds must be taken care of. both
principal and interest, and to meet
the obligations this tax was neces-
sary and will have to be continued
for the life of the bonds. Evident
ly the editor of the Herald wrote
his roast in Goldfield and was
not conversant with the facts. The
taxpayers of Rhyolite can have no
objection to the raise, for it was
their doings that caused the school
building TO be erected The COM
missioners were compelled to raise
the tax levy of Rhyolite to meet
the bond issue. simply this and
nothing more Te following is
the tommyrot article printed in the
Herald at Godfeld:
1T seems that on the principle
of big fish eat little fish. the board
OF county commissioners have been
working lately in more WAYS than

on the board, could do nothing
Wen. such are the conditions Just
now, but they may not be after
the next election.
1T seems that the northern enc
of the county has been relieved

kitchen when no one was there aud
steal some Of tho food The bear
agreed; but while they were in the
kitchen tte cook came in and tho
bear was caught >ad punished. For
this he threatened 10 kill the fox; bat
the cunning fox sad:
"Pray do not let rs quarrel viii
take you to another place where we
shall certainly oht2in plenty of food"
At night the fox led the bear to a

There is a fine cheese. We will so
down and get it,
He then got into one Of the buckle

MODESTY is A MALE VIRTUE
With Women II Is no More Than an
Artificial Protective Device,
Says Writer.

And In this same connection 1t IS
time that we revised our ideas Of
feminine modesty. What lot we
have written about it and how much
we have enthused over i'll. Some Of
us have even tried to find IN 1t an in
spiration, and women have listened to
our praises and our esotasies for all
these years and never once have they
dlvulged the secret that they had not
the slightest idea what we We're talk
ing about. They have known that We
were crediting them with some virtue
that they did not possess, but the only
way in which they could learn of that
virtue was by an observation of our
selves.
For modesty Is male, not female,
virtue, and If men do not get the
credit due to them IL Ia only because
they have lost the power to blush
What is scalled feminine modesty is
no more than an artificial protective

ORIGIN CT Eeet Sugar.

When the fleets Of Great Britain

Europe, during the Napolconic wars,
Europe was cut off from its supply OF

America sugar was unknown ana
honey was the universal swcetsnlGS
But the supply Of honey was not equal
to the demand nov, In some coGn'
tries, as IN Bonelnip, they made sug II

they crystalized d&Xtroae from tho

were inadequate. The final outcome
