The Goldfield news and weekly tribune. [volume] (Goldfield, Nev.) 1911-1947, 1914-03-28

The statement has been made that practically all the surface ores
in the Rocky Mountain region that are suitable for direct smelling have
been mined and treated, and that the ores now available are, for the
most part, refractory to the smelling process, says the Mining World.
While this is, i'll a measure, true, taken unqua1hedly, 1t IS somewhat
misleading. 1t would be nearer the truth to say that known supplies
OF surface ores of smelling grade are being rapidly depleted. Although
some smelters have been compelled to cease operations from exhaustion
of suitable ores, this deplorable state has not yet become general, but
at the present rate Of exhaustion of these ores, may be reached i'll the
not far distant future. The result is that increasing interest is being
shown in the improvement of existing means, and the discovery OF
new, for the profitable treatment of the lower grade and refractory ores
that are found at greater depth.

GRAVEST CRISIS IN
HISTORY CONFRONTS
AMERICAN RAILWAYS
WAR HAS CLOSED THE FINANCIAL MARKETS OF
EUROPE TO THEM INDEFINITELY

ton which so vitality affects the flu
ture welfare of the commonwealth.
Why Railroads Are Helpless
In times Of acute financial stress.
private industries are in position to
very largely adjust their affairs to
meet the emergency. They can adj
vance the price of their commodities,
cut their payroll in half, or shut
down altogether and thus permit the
storm to blow over without actual
shiDwreck. The railroads as quasi
public enterprises, however, are in
an entirely different position. Their
rates are regulated by law and can
not be advanced without the consent
of the people through. their law maxi
ing bodies. In order to please the
convenience of the public and not to
break down the commerce of the
country they must operate their
freight and passenger trains whether
they carry full load or only a
quarter of load-and in view OF
these facts, 1t is manifestly unfair to
put the railroads in the same class
with private industries in the present
crisis and ask them to shift for them
selves as best they can. When the
people took over the complete max.
ing and regulation of railroad rates
they at the same time assumed the
solemn implied obligation to see that
the railroads get square deal-ioI
this is the only power which stands
between them and ruin
We believe every intelligent citizen
will agree that agriculture, commerce
and industry cannot get along with.
out the railroads. On the Other
hand, the railroads cannot get along
without the patronage and, what il
