The convention OF lead and zinc men
OF Utah and surrounding States, which
met in Salt Lake City on Thursday, has
completed it's labors These labors went
to the compiling Of facts and figures Of
the cost of production, OF the scales OF
wages, of transportation, of charges for
reduction Of ores, and in fact Of all the
factors that enter into the production
of lead and zinc in the mines OF all this
and surrounding region. The presenta,
tion is fairly complete, and the mem-
orials adopted to be sent to the Ways
and Means Committee of the House of
Representatives are we'll and strongly
put.
This may be considered to be the
opening gun Of the defense on the quos.
ton of reducing the tariff on lead and
zinc. 1t is good shot. showing well
the facts, and the relation Of gold and
silver production to the mining of lead
and zinc; but it will be necessary to
follow it up with the sending of dele.
cation that will be prepared to meet
every question or objection that may be
raised by members Of Congress III either
house. 1t often happens that questions
are raised that seem to those Congress
men who raise them to be of immense
Importance; but it is often easy to
show that those questions either are OF
no Importance at all, or that they are
based on misapprchonsio of fact. 1T
is necessary, therefore, TO have compe'

to meet every question and objection
that may be presented We take it that
the lead and zinc men are fully alive
to the Importance Of sending such

prepare the ground for the reception
of the memorial and also to be at hand
for any questions, either preliminary or
subsequent, that may be asked by any
