Utah Copper viii BE Mining &c
Grafton Hence

When Colonel lacking was in Salt
Lake about two weeks ago he took
occasion to make "A close inspection
of the conditions of the big copper
mine at Bingham and the two con-
centrators at Garfield. With this
frst-hand knowledge and the latest
reports at his ~finger-ends. when he
reached New York he gave out the
following interview, says the Salt
Lake neutrality-suspicious.:
There is no conceivable condition
that can arise that would prevent
Utah Copper from making its pro-
dnction at the present rate during the
lifetime of anyone now living and at
a cost below Z cents per pound.
Our property from n end to
the other. including a splendid or
%ganization is in better shape than
ever before. We are mining our big
tonnage easily; in fact we are ship
ping 81 900 tons a day with greater
ease and with fewer men than was
required two or three years ago to
ship half that tonnage. Notwith-
standing the very much larger scale
of mining operations and the big ad-
ditions to our milling facilities, we
have fewer men on the pay roll than
in 1912. The mine itself is In per-
feet condition. Our stripping is so
far advanced that we can do almost
anything that we desire in the way OF
mining.
We will continue to strip the
overburden at the present rate for
another year or so, but after that the
excess slipping charge will disap-
pear. At the present time we are
charging to operating costs IN cents
per ton of ore against our deferred
stripping charge, but in the not dis
tant future it is quite probable tina
we will extinguish all accumulation

WAGES AND PRICES.
Sugar Beet Farmers and Workers Get
Much Higher Rates Here.

Much Higher Rates Here.
The difference between the eondi.
tions under which beet sugar Is pro-
duced in the United States and Eu-
rope is strikingly shown by a report
just published as a United States sen
ate document. Summarizing III re-
ports from various European countries.
this document shows that 10 cents =
day vas the highest rate earned by
men working in the European beet
fields. while NJ cents was the average
rate. In all the European countries.
however, the greater part Of the field
labor Is done By women and children
at wages ranging from 10 cents a day
for children in Russia TO 81 cents 4
day for women IN Denmark. To these
poor laborers the SEQ a day. which
workers In the United States. must ap
pear a princely income
Among the factory workers engaged
N beet sugar production tie difference
Is equally striking. The men working
n the factories of the great European
sugar making countries. France and
Germany. receive an average daily
wage Of 81 cents. according 10 official
figures published by their own govern
ments The average American wage
for employees in the beet sugar fac.
tories. s2.99 a day. Is more than three
times as great.
Likewise the farmers who grow the
beets In Europe receive only 81 to $40
a ton for their crops. although they
pay four 10 five times as much rent for
their land as the American farmer
does.
While these figures serve to show
why 1t is that Europe can produce
sugar cheaper han the United States
and why the present tariff on foreign
sugar Is necessary 10 enable American
factories to continue these high rates.
IL is an interesting fact that the only
important country Of Europe where
the people are able 10 buy sugar
cheaper than In the United States i
England. Even IN England the price
paid for the sugar most generally used
Is as high as the prices paid here. On
the whole the lot Of an American sugar
beet grower or worker must be cons
sidered far preferable to that Of his
European competitor.

HOW TO GET CHEAP SUGAR.

Beet Growing vii Result In Big Saw

Mr. ". +. Wiilett. who Is recognized
as the greatest statistical expert on
sugar IN the country. is authority for
the statement that the competition Of
the domestic beet product lowered

half a cent a pound during 1912. siore-
over. be estimates that instead OF being
on the market b. the first Of the year.
as is usually the case. 90 per cent Of
the entire beet sugar crop was carried
over into the present year and that IL
will exercise an Influence In the direc-
ton Of lower prices throughout 1918.
II Is a familiar phenomenon In the
sugar trade that wholesale prices go
down every year when beet sugar
upon the market and that prices
go up again as o as the beet sugar
is disposed II aud the big seaboard re-
fners Of imported sugar are again in
control Of the situation.
During the Hardwick committees in
vestigation Of the sugar industry the
examination Of Mr.. Willett as to the
best means Of lnsuring a permanent
supply OF cheap sugar for the Ameri-
can consumer brought from him the
admission that the only way TO accom-
plish this WIS to encourage the beet
sugar industry to develop as rapidly as
possible.

Dynamite Bomb Has Been Found.

Dynamite Bomb Has Been Found.
A daring attempt to assassinatt
John d. A%rchbold, Standard Oh
magnate, at his country home neal

York Monday.
A powerful bomb hidden beneath
a pile of leaves on his private drive
way was discovered on Saturday BY
tie superintendent of his estate.
The bomb was placed in a wagon
rut on the roadway leading from the
front door of the Archbold home. 1t
consisted of four sticks of dynamite
bound tightly together with heavy
wire and fitted with percussion caps.
The millionaire's automobile had IL
run down the driveway on Saturday
morning. doubtless would have ex-
ploded the bomb.
Only the fact that Mr.. Archbold
came to New York in his yacht on
Saturday saved his life. Had he been
driven to the railway station at Tar
rytown his automobile would have
plunged blindly into the trap set.
Mr.. Archbold Is president of the
Standard Oil company Of New Jer-
sey. The police OF Tarrytown are
working upon the theory that the
bomb was placed BY members OF the
faction embittered by the recent
Bayonne oil strike.
The police believe the bomb was
placed by someone who had care
