MIAMI STRIKE

A most inoppertune time was Sc
lected for the strike which occurred
at5,Miami last week, if there ever is
such thing as an opportune time for
such an occurrence.
With business depression throwing
thousands of people out of employ
ment during the past few months,
thereby depriving them of the oppor-
tunity of making a living for them
selves and families, here are 1900 men
who were fortunate enough to retain
such opportunities at good wages who
lay down their tools and say, I'VE
WON'T WORK.
The reason assigned for their action,
as given out, is that a man who want
ed work was given employment.
This circumstance, on the face of it.
looks like an act which should be well
coined by working men-that another
of their number, so many of whom
are out of work and seeking employ
ment, should be furnished with a Job.
The man was given employment in
the machine shops, where not
very large number of men are employ
ed
Because the individual who en-
ploys men for the company did not
go, hat in hand, and humbly seek the
consent of the others who already
had jobs to put this man at work,
those already receiving good wages
for their services, by their acts, said:
IF that man intends to run his bust
ness without consulting US about it,
we will not work for him. Before
he gives any one else besides us work
he must first obtain our permission"
This, in substance, was the uIti-
matum given by the machine shop
workers. Then the men employed in
the mine, and in other capacities
about it, also said, eff those machin-
lists will not work, we will quit too"
and they ordered a strike.
The net result, so far, is that all
The copper era and Morenci leader. [volume] (Clifton, Ariz.) 1911-1929, 1915-01-22

operations have been suspended at the
mine and these 1900 men who have
voluntarily quit work are now enrolled
in the army of the unemployed.
The employer needed that man; the
country needed him, as it needs en-
ployment for every man, land tn man
needed the employment. Yet the edict
of this small coterie of machinists,
backed up by the miners, goes forth
that if he works they will quit, and
quit they did
Who is it that suffers from such
radical actions? The mining company
will lose the profits. if there is profit
in operating it's mines. The country
will lose the added wealth which the
product of the mine would make to
the general productive wealth of the
country.
But the mining company will not
suffer to any very great extent
through this loss which will prove
temporary The loss of wealth to the
country will be scarcely noticeable.
The real sufferers then will be the
men themselves and those depending
upon them for support and the great
est loss to the country and particu-
larly to that community where these
mines are located is the loss of labor,
employed at remunerative wages.
Labor has ''strangled the goose
which lays the golden eggs for it" in
this instance. and at very unfavor-
able time Phoenix Gazette

ver-bearing lead ores of the Tintic dis
trict, but Park City, Bingham, and
other districts contributed. The yield
from copper ores of the smaller mines
decreased with the curtailment of the
copper yield.
Colorado ranked fifth in silver pro-
duction, with decrease of over 400,-
900 ounces, and Arizona ranked sixth,
with an increase of about the same
quantity and a record output.
Low metal prices and disorganized
markets in the later part of 1914 es-
pecially, and curtai1ment of copper
output owing to the European war,
made the year a difficult one for pro-
ducers of silver. But for the increased
yield of siliceous silver ores at Tono-
Npah and in Arizona and the silver-lead
zinc ores especially at Butte and in
the Occur d'Alenes, the silver yield
would have been greatly decreased;
and but for the European war the do
nestle silver output would have brok-
en- all record in quantity of output, at
least.
Demand for silver from India and
China was disappointingly light in
1914. and London stocks accumulated,
resulting in a. poor market New York
prices, rejecting these conditions,
were generally low, especially in the
later half of the year, For fine bar
silver the price averaged 57.6 cents
in January, 81. 5 in February, SO in
March, So. 5 in April, and 5S. 1 in May.
In June it dropped to Sc. 5, in July to
54.7, in August to 54. 8, in September
to 1913, in October to 50.7, and in
November to 40. L. The average for
December was about 494 cents and
therefore the general average for the
year was only about 54.S cents, or the
lowest since 1911.
The imports of silver in 1914 were
valued at $25. 900, as estimated
from the records of the Bureau of Do
nestle and Foreign Commerce. The
exports were valued at $5O,5OO,0OO or
$25, 10000 in excess of the imports.
In 1913 the excess of exports over inn
ports was $26,908,S12.
The imports of silver in 1914 were
as usal. chiefly in ore and bullion and

HEAVY SILVER PRODUCTION
Another Large Output for 1e14-AII
Records Would Undoubtedly Have
Been Broken But For the European
War.

The domestic production of silver
again reached a high mark in 1914
The preliminary estimates of the
United States Geological Survey and
the Bureau of the Mint Indicate an
output Of 67,929,7O0 fine ounces, valu-
ed at $37, 225, 900, but the final figures
may be somewhat lower This was
again one of the greatest outputs since
the domestic production of silver be-
gan, according to H. D. McCaskey, of
the United States Geological Survey.
In 1912, 1913 and 1914 the highest
record outputs of quantity have been
made, but, owing to the varying
the value of the output has frenquent-
ly in the last 25 years exceeded the
value of any one recent year.
Increases in mine production of sill
yer were notable in Idaho, California,
and Arizona in 1914, and large de-
creases were recorded in Montana,
Utah, Nevada, and Colorado.
Nevada retained first place in out
put of silver in 1914,but early figures
from the mines indicate decrease in
production of over 100000 ounces
The Tonopah, Nevada Hills, Nevada
Wonder, Rochester, and other mines
were active producers.
Idaho ranked second in silver pro-
duetion in 1914, with an increase in
production of about 100000 ounces,
making record for. the State. The
great 1ead-silver mines of the. Occur
d'Alenes had a particularly productive
year.
In Montana the silver output fell
off more than / SOC, aa0t ounces, owing
chiefly to the curtahed copper yield
resulting mainly from the European
war but also in part from labor con-
dftions at Butte
Utah ranked fourth in output, but
the yield declined. The bulk of the
silver produced was derived from sill

COPPER SHARE REVIEW
Metal is Again Firmer, But Demand
sIaokens-The Outlook for the
Trade is Not Yet Very Clear
Only Moderate Activity in a Few
of the Copper Shares.

The copper market is rather quiet
at present, but up to a few days ago
there had been a good demand al
though the extent of it was undoubted-
ly exaggerated by sellers-which en-
abled producers to jack up the price
another notch. Yet there is a
wide difference in quotations, some
agencies quoting IL "a cents and
others Is 7'S, Notwithstanding per-
sistent reports of sales at Is So cents.
The nervous and jerky fluctuations
in quotations are owing to the unusu-
al conditions which surround the
trade. In view of the big cut in the
output since last summer, the discon-
tinuation of the copper producers
monthly statements, the heavy de-
mand for foreign account and yet the
difficulty in Shipping the metal out of
the country, the copper trade is more
TAT sea than it has been for years.
Thus one moment the metal is dis
playing marked weakness and the
next moment pronounced strength.
Sellers predict an early revival in
the buying which will send the metal
across Ia cents, but it would be
singular thing if sellers were not pre-
dieting higher prices. The truth is
that there has never been a time when
there has been SO little reliable infor-
nation on which to base positive
statements as to the future. All that
may be saidswith any certainty is
that the producing interests will
let no opportunity pass to make con-
sumers pay the last farthing for their
supplies.
The announcement of the actual
dissolution of the copper producers
association, which, of course, means
the permanent discontinuance of the
former monthly statements of produc-
ton and deliveries occasioned no sur
prise. Not many of these statements
had been[issued before more than one
producer had come to the conclusion
that their publication was mistake.
That is to say, it was felt that they
save more information to consumers
that the latter were entitled to.
Time was. before the publication of
the statements, when producers found
it possible to lift the price of copper |
to % or 26 cents, but that had been
found impossible since so much
had been vouch afed Con
sumers. Hence the association came
to- an end with perhaps few regrets |
