Efforts Being Made to Continue the

The Butte Miner of recent date con-
tains the following comment on e.ec-
trical power situation in Montana
which is also Of much interest in this
district:
1.-The Montana Power company
which Is owned and controlled largely
gamated Copper company, has stopped
nearly all construction work in the
state, but is hoping to continue its
present work. An effort is being made
to induce the Milwaukee railroad to
resume its work of identification,
which was stopped by the interference
of some l. w. w. agitators, who caus-
ed a strike Of the electricians because
the Milwaukee refused to pay the
wages of the Electrical Workers union
to ordinary laborers engaged in set
be compelled to suspend all construc-
ton work and work of development If
the Milwaukee and other power users
do not go on with their plans of cleo
trihcation. The power company has
intended to extend it's lines to the
Occur d'Alenes, preliminary work for
which was begun before the general
financial paralysis was precipitated by
the kaiser. Principally the power
company aimed to distribute electric
power over the mountain range in the
western part of Montana for the use
of the Milwaukee railroad, but 1t was
ascertained that the company cou(
as we'll extend it's power lines so as
to furnish power for the Coeul
d'Alene mines as we'll as for the rail
road. No answer has yet been re
ceived from the Milwaukee officials a!
to their willingness to go on with thei
contemplated work of electrification
but an officer of the company ha
made the positive declaration that un
less the work could be, done withou
interference from the unreasoning la
Dor unions it would be postponed in

uAL RESUMPTION.

Official figures of the copper produc-
ton from the Jackling porphyry mines
during September were available to-
day says Boston dispatch OF Octo-
Der %. Under the orders for curtail-
ment. the mines are credited with the
following production:
Ray Consolidated 2,1S0,0O0 pounds
Utah Copper, 6,672,194 pounds
Chino Copper 2,954,734 pounds.
These figures show that each of the
companies has met the requirement
imposed upon 1t when the curtailment
orders were issued, and each mine Is
now producing on the basis OF 5o per
cent of the tonnage under normal con-
ditions. When the announcement was
first made some engineers were under
the impression that 1t would be almost
Impossible to make the sudden change
demanded on so short a notice. They
even went so far as to venture that
either a larger than so per cent pro-
duction would be shown or else the
order would have the effect of show
ing a much smaller output than had
been ordered.
Wonderful Working System.
Each department of these compan-
les is evidently under much better
control than operators generallS
thought would be possible where the
work is carried on .on such an extern
sive scale. The fact that the manage
roent has absolute control of each de-
tail portion of these immense mlnera
estate was never before more conclu
siyely borne out than by the presen
excellent order Of things. The com
bined production of these three pro
ducers. which normally Is 25,ooo'oo
mounds a month or better, has beel
cut in halves almost over night, AM
the immense reduction plans nav

II ia evident that Colonel Jacklin
does not expect these producers 10
rehabilitated as quickly as they Wer
reduced, but that he does expect thef
to gradually resume until a normal "a
sis is again reached is clear in his re
cent statement. The treatment or
