THE MORNING MINE
| IS CLOSED DOWN
REPAIRS IN SHAFT AND ADD.
TONS TO THE MILL ARE
GIVEN As REASONS.

The Morning mine at Mullan, one Of
d Smelling company, having pay
roll of about 400 men, closed down
Tuesday, the reason given being tt
install additional hosting machinery
and to make changes and additions t.
the mill, including the installation OF
the Callow flotation process to re-
cover zinc orc. In announcing the
close down and giving this as the rea-
son, the Press Times, which in mat
ters concerning the doings of the
Federal company is supposed to speak
by authority, significantly states that
resumption of operations at the Nor
ming is Indefinite" The work that
will be done while the mine is shut
down will give employment to prob
ably 100 men. so the actual number
thrown out Of employment will be
about 300.
Another Cause Probable.
The. announcement that the shut
clusion that the low price Of lead also
had a bearing on the action of the
company. 1t is no secret that the
margin between profit and loss Is very
narrow on Morning ore at the present
price Of lead, and unless the tone of
the lead market improves it is alto
gether likely that the shut down will
be indefinite. AS the Morning Is
large producer Of lead, possibly the
withdrawal of its output from the
market may have tendency to
the price.
The probability is that lii the lead
market had been satisfactory these
repairs and additions could have watt
ed, or they would have been occom-
plished without interrupting the oper-
atoms Of the mine, and that the COM |

SPECIAL MEETING OF STOCK
HOLDERS-MAY LEVY
AN ASSESSMENT.

The latest development In the ar
fairs of the Idora Hill Mining COM
pany, which was recently forced to
suspend operations at the mine on ac-
count of numerous attachments and
liens filed against it. Is found in a
circular letter issued by the secre-
tary, H. e. Winder, under date of
May Is. AS the final solution of the
difficulties of the company is mat
ter Of much interest in this city and
vicinity the circular is here reproduce
ed In full:
Mr.. Winder's Letter.
A special meeting Of local stock
holders was held informally May Is,
1914, at the request of the directors.
at this meeting ii was decided to take
the following action and method Of
procedure:
The directors have been endeavor-
ing to secure the Indebtedness, by
having the creditors consent to take
a mortgage on the mine and mill to
trustee; the arrangement being that
the ordinary creditors were to take u
first mortgage, and the directors
second for monies advanced by them.
However, due to several first mort
gage creditors holding out nothing
could be done.
We have been able to secure a stay
Of proceedings for 50 days in order to
put the matter before the stockhod-
erS.
Mr. Mallette has been consulted and
advises that inasmuch as the mort
gage can not be arranged that moth
ing Is certain about his deal. and it
appears that the stockholders must
take steps to protect the property,
which Is certainly too valuable to lose
for the debts.
Therefore, at the meeting mentioned
which was conducted by local stock
holders, the directors We're requested
10 give immediate notice for n special
stockholders meeting, which notice is
enclosed, and that we endeavor to
have the bylaws amended allowing
us to levy the assessment still due.
1t has also been proposed to add
five hundred thousand $500 OO0)
shares to the capital making the total
two million (2.ooO,OoO) shares, and
through this source lqudate the bal
ance of the debts, which after pay
ment Of the assessment would princi-
pally be held by the directors. Some
OF the directors would take stock for
their claims.
Also. we propose that you elect
new board of directors at this meet
Ing to proceed with the company's
business.
(. All of these matters are urged upon
you as the best possible manner of
settling our affairs.
Certainly our property Is too valua-

Marian dutifuily and bitterly thump-

Both together; then each alone. In
the big leather rocker behind her sat
her mother, a-quiver with pride ana

Jay dropped in toward dinner time with
a ne1ghborly Offer to help at anything
that he could. No one could construe the
cordial words into anything more. Marian
looked at him coldly. And not two months
before, one Starlit. moon-silvered evening,
he had insinuated that she was the one
and only girl in the world At that mo-
ment she hated the pleasant young man
as much as she hated pianos. She firmly
resolved that she would have n career
then. And maybe there was some hope.
She had heard that the two essentials
to fame are voice and a broken heart.
Well, she had throbbing proof of the lat

not be excluded even by fences, but
the extent of vandalism was so small
as to keep no one from applying for
a garden in 1912. Every lot OF ours

They are arming the school chlldren
and drilling and marching them TO
fight the high cost of living-arming
them with hoe.
With the average level of food
prices higher than ever before and
spring time coming on, the new doc
trine of thrift is proving more than
ever popular with the grown-ups. AS
for the school pupils, for years school
gardening has been delight for those
who have had a taste of it.
The new doctrine of thrift which
declares the city, state and nation
cannot be thrifty until the indiyid'
uals are, and that the prodigal spirit
of today is a national menace, might
fail in it's purpose if it were limited
to the preaching of saving. But 1t
isn't. 1t is whetitng new weapons
