CARMEN AND JUDGES.

CARMEN AND JUDGES. We'd
nesday's issue of The Daily News
carries an editorial strongly booming
the proposed raise for judges of the
circuit and superior courts, The raise
is named in a bill now before the leg
islature. 1t calls for $4,000 a year
instead of the present $4,000.
ut is a good bill and ought to
pass - says The News. Twelve thou
sand dollars is not too much to pay
competent Judge of the circuit or
superior court"
The street car men of Chicago are
now fighting for an increase of an
average of four cents an hour They
average, by the year, a little over
thousand dollars. They are forced
to work at least ten hours day, and
they haven't any leather-lounged,
soft-carpeted offices to spend a share
of their time. They are on the job
every minute of their working time.
The judges, whose pay The Daily
News wants raised from $4,000 to
$4,000 year, have much shorter
hours.
The comparison in pay, if the
judges were granted the raise, would
be about thousand month for the
judges to a little over a thousand
year to the street car men. -.5.L.

GlLPlN COUNTY MINERS
SETTLE FOR TUNGSTEN

n settlement was made this week
on three tons of tungsten ore from
the Sayre ranch, On what is known
as the Mesa tract, in the Gilpin-
Boulder district, that gave the miners
nice little check. The ore went
l2h% in tungsten content and the
check received was for $763.S0. John
Kemp & Co., Gilpin county boys, have
this ground under lease. The ore
was taken cut of a tunnel, being
driven to cut the shaft, where a vein
CT considerable size exists. When
the four boys who are in the lease,
reach the vein they will probably
make a fortune. There is more ground
equally as good as this in the Gilpin-
Boulder district and it would be well
worth the time of miners desirous
OF obtaining tungsten leases to pros
pect the Sayre ranch.

TUNGSTEN AT $4,000 A TON

Denver, Colo. - Small amounts of
tungsten concentrates have just been
sold on a basis of $4,000 a ton, the
highest price ever reached. Under
normal conditions it sells at between
$500 and s4OO a ton.
The European war and the indus
trial activities in this country have
brought about the sensational price
advance. Macline tool manufactures,
all Of whom have been exceedingly
busy since the outbreak of the war,
have been the heaviest users of tung-
stem. An actual shortage is threaten.
ed with the embargo placed upon
tungsten shipments from England or
her possessions.
OF worlds production approximat
ing 9,10O short tons the United States
in 1912, the last year for which sta
tistics have been compiled, contrib
uted 1880 tons, and South American
countries 1,200 tons. England and
British possessions produce more
than $500 tons, the bulk coming from
Australia and Burma.
\ recent sale of high grade tung-
stem ere is noted at $40 per unit for
so per cent ore. In September s32
per unit was paid and in August SIG.
In London the quotation October %
was e2 15s per unit, or about s13.3S.

COMPETITIVE BIDS
FOR TUNGSTEN

Tie Observer for years has con
tended that Gilpin county was one
o. the greatest fields for profitable
mining that ever the sun shone upon
provided we received all the values
less a reasonable smelling charge)
there are in cur ore. The American
Smelling and Refining company, hav-
ing closed all avenues of competition
leaves Us at the mercy CT this merci-
less syndicate. What competition
will do when given a free hand is
emphasized by the following letter.
"Gilpin, Colo, Nov. 14th, 1915.
"The Gilpin Observer:
just a few lines to state few
facts regarding how competition
works in the sale of ore.
Charles Moody, of this town has
a lease On small block of tungsten
ground on the Beaver. Has been work
ing same for about a week. After
breaking and raising their dirt, he
sorted it over and called it clean to
make a first grade. Friday, l was
at his shack on the Beaver, and help
ed them sort and look it over. Moody
packed it in to Nederlaad Saturday
to sell it. He passed the Primes and
other outfit, and rendered it to an
outside buyer who bid s1.5O per pound
for 400 crude tungsten ore.
''The buyer had his chemist look
at it, and on his statement that it
was 400 or better, the one-half
sack of ore was weighed, weighing
6O94 pounds, including sack. They
called it 81 pounds and gave check
for $91.5O. The whole transaction be-
ing concluded in 10 minutes.
The point I call attention to is,
that the ore was damp, at least GO
moistrre. Guggie" would have de suc-
ted 1OTe moisture. also 10 for sack,
with sempling and freight charges.
and possibly a Dispute over control

it was, the seller was satisfied, har-
ing figured he wss making a 40ec

What a change from doing business
with the one and only \. S. & R. Co.
What a difference a little competi-
tion makes. That IS tie point
wish to illustrate. You viii note
that the little lot of ore was at the
rate of 100000 per ton net With
these facts, you have a good argu-
ment for Competitor.

AMONG THE MINES
BIG TUNGSTEN FIND
IN ENTERPRISE DISTRICT

Further investigation and tests of
the big tungsten find reported near
the Hard Money district last week
by Messrs. Roy, Kittredge and Coyle,
is convincible Of the fact that this
high-priced metal exists there in big
quantities. p. h. Alsdorf, e. NJ, who
has examined more ore to determine
the presence of tungsten in the last
month, than most metallurgists would
examine in years, made an investiga-
tion of the find and from numerous
tests, says the Hard Money section
contains tungsten of high percent
age. The ore is not confined to the
immediate vicinity of the Hard Mon
ey district, but is found for a con-
siderable distance from there. in the
direction OF the Lone Star mine.
From tests made of the ore found
by Messrs. Roy, Kittredge and Coyle
Mr.. Alsdorf found tungsten ranging
from Z to 40. There are eight or
ten claims in the group in which
these men are interested and Mr.
Alsdorf found tungsten in ore taken
from a tunnel, shafts and surface
holes. Mr.. Roy and associates are
making up shipment of their ore
and expect to realize handsomely on
the lot.
Quite number have been prospect
ing in the country surrounding this
group of claims and expect to open
up tungsten bodies that Will make

nary. If Enos Mills, who wants to

INVESTIGATING WAR PLOTS

Washington, d. c., Nov. 15.-Handi
capped by the lack of specific laws
TO protect the nations neutrality the
department Of justice las turned to
one CT its old standbys and is inves-
tigating alleged war plots with view
to instituting criminal proceedings
under the Sherman antitrust act
The INJURY it was learned tonight
was directed particularly as plots
supposed to have been formed in CON
nection with efforts of pro-German
and pro-Austrian sympathizers to
cause strikes in munitions plants in
the United States. The department S
theory is that If there is conspir-
acy to interfere with the manufacture
of munitions 1t is a conspiracy in re-
straint of interstate and foreign com
merce.
Publication Of notices in foreign
language newspapers, calling on sub
jects Of Austria and Germany to quit
work in munitions plants is said to
have been cne of many methods en-
ployed to bring about strikes and
