We visited the Offices of the
Times Democrat and were very
pleasantly received by Mr.. Hop
kins. the city editor. who was in
formed that We represented the
National Negro Press associa-
ton. which had delegated US to
request that he capitalize the
letter IN" in Negro" We
briefly stated our reasons, and
Mr.. Hopkins courteously recog-
nized our position and assured
US that he really had not given
the matter any considera ton, but
saw no reason why our sugges-
ton should not meet his ap-
proval. He promised to take the
matter up with the editor in
chief. We expressed our thanks
for his consideration and prom
ised that any action taken along
this line would be appreciated
by our association and our race.
We further thanked him for the
publicity given us in his col
umns.
We called on the managing
editor Of the Muskogee Daily
Phoenix. Mr.. Fisk, and express
ed our mission. He said that he
was Interested In the Negro
Press association and had been
liberal to 1t in his columns; alse
that he did not capitalize the
wv" in white man" After our
explanation Of the Importance
Of our request he said that he
would see that the an" in Ne
gro" was capitalized. We Offer
ed our thanks and felt grateful
for his courteous reception.
We also requested that all
news articles given the press
pertaining to the records of our
meetings be censored by the
press and publicity committee
that we may present to the pub

of such efforts will jeopardize the

General S. j. Conklin, veteran soldier
and editor of this state, died yesterday
at the national %sanitarium, aged eighty
five years and fifteen days. His death
was due to accident. When taking a
bath Saturday last, hot water was
turned on instead of cold. The water
is said to have been scalding hot and
General Conkling was fearfully scald-
ed. Every effort was made to save his
life. but his advanced age was a fatal

been much improved, and he had plan
ned to return to his home at Clark on

w. w. Fisk, H. c. Emo and John
Kroutz of Jarbidge came down yes
terday in the car with Ray Cook, also
of that place. They say there is not
much activity in the camp at present,
although they look for things to open
up in a short while, as there is con-
siderable ore being taken out at the
present time and things are begin
ming to take on a definite shape. Not
much ore is being shipped out, the
only recent shipment being a car by
the Buster people. A great many
claims are being given up on &C
count of holders not being able to get
money to work them. The best ore
at the camp now seems to be the ore
of the Buster mine, which has a tun-
mel which they claim contains $50
feet of good milling ore. On that
level they claim the streak is about
seven feet wide, but above there it
is 20 feet wide in places. The AL
pha company is running a tunnel to
drain a vein below the 400-foot lev
ell and have almost completed 1t.
They are still running a five-stamp
mill.-Elko Free Press.

STATISTICS GATHERED
ON COAL PRODUCTION

For five years the United States
geological survey has collected coal
production statistics showing the dis
tribution of output among five class
es of mines, rated according to their
productive capacity. Comparisons of
these compilations indicate that
even in this short period the tenden-
cy toward concentration into large
unit operations is marked. In the
anthracite mines of Pennsylvania
such concentration vas evident be-
fore 1909, and there has been fur
Their progress in the same direction.
In the bituminous mines in these
five years there has been an increase
in annual production of nearly 100
million tons, but practically no in
crease in the number Of commercial
mines. There has, however, been a
most significant change in the num-
Der and production of the mines of
the first class, those producing 200,-
900 tons or over. the increase in
number being 20 per cent and the
output of 694 of these mines in 1918
averaging nearly $4,000 tons, as
contrasted with 100000 tons, the av-
erage production per mine of this
class in 1909. The proportion of the
total production contributed by the
mines of the first class has increased
in the five years from 42k to 50h
per cent. This tendency toward
large operations is characteristic of
both western and eastern coal fields.
the six states showing the largest
percentage Of production from mines
of the first class being Utah, Virgin
ia. Pennsylvania. Illinois. New Mex
leo and Montana in the order named.
Tables showing production by
classes of mines and other details
are included in the annual report on
the coal industry by E. w. Parker of
the United States geological survey,
which is now in press.
