What we call the south tunnel
runs southerly and is on a north and
south assure and is conceived to in
tersect a cross fissure. This bore
has been pushed in $50 feet on ore.
Its face Is all in ore and there are
numerous reasons for believing that
the body of ore at this point is very
much wider than the tunnel face.
This tunnel has to be driven 200
feet further to intersect the cross
assure, where there is every reason
for believing the ore deposition will
be found much higher grade and
occupying huge area horizontally
There will be 225 feet of ore above
this tunnel level.
Then there is the east tunnel
which starts into the hill 1000 feet
northeast OF the south tunnel and is
on the north-south fissure being
pushed northerly. This bore is in
14O feet and has passed through an
east-west assure which is being fol-
lowed easterly. Here is where our
splendid copper-silver values are APP
pearing.
There is not only this important
ly significant circumstance connect
ed with this tunnel, but also the fact
that sixty feet more length added to
1t will bring the face under the in
tersection OF three assures. ell carry
ing ore such as ten or fifteen tons,
which we have out and which as
says 60 per cent lead.
when we reach the intersection
OF these three assures the workings
will be $50 feet under the surface
pits showing the high grade and af-
ford us $50 feet of stopping ground
above.
There is yet an upper tunnel on
the east hill, which follows an east
west assure and is in ore all the
way. In this tunnel there is an in
cline shaft on the assure fifty-hve
feet deep in ore. The east tunnel
extension on this assure will cut un-
der the upper tunnel and give an
additional 200 feet depth.
Then 1000 feet further east,

Investors who inspected the mine

the principal elementals for big
mine making, beyond question. The
essentially more important OF these
favorable physical conditions display
ed by the estate, were found to be
a series of north-south and east
west assures making into mammoth
ore deposits, which was suggested
as a likely consequence, by the pres
ence of splendid ores OF seventeen

large faces of ore in eight separate

The local branch of the C. w. & NJ.

A TIMELY SUGGESTION

timely suggestion was made by Business
Agent Filing Munkebye at the last meeting of the
painters union, when he stated that now is the time
for trade unionists in this vicinity to renew their
allegiance to the union label and demand it on the
goods they purchase.
lie referred particularly to the cigarmakers
who. it is claimed, already noticing the falling
off in their trade due to the fact that the saloons are
closing.
Cigarmakers should not be compelled to depend
on the saloons for their employment, and if men,
bers of labor unions in this city will only promise to
perform their duty in demanding goods that bear the
label, particularly cigars, The Labor World is sure
that the cigarmakers will lose nothing by the YER
dict of the people of Duluth in voting the saloons
out Of business.
Denver has been dry for more than year but
clgarmakers are enjoying better conditions in that
city than before. Their trade is prosperous and
enough cigarmakers cannot be found to fill the Jobs
More cgarmakers are at work in Denver today than
before prohibition went into effect.
Denver trade unionists are demanding labelled
cigars and that fact supplies the for the we'll
conditioned CT gar trade in Denver Duluth will 90

Duluth to remember the cigarmakers' union when
purchasing cigars. You are asked only to do your
duty as union men.

RATES ALREADY HIGH ENOUGH

The general facts about the tie-up
of freight throughout the country are
known to all. The railroads have been
trying for a number of years to con-
vince the Interstate Commerce Com
mission that they needed very con-
siderable increase in freight rates,
and in order to make their claim good
they have allowed the freight cars to
wear out, the engines to become too
few, the terminal facilities to become
entirely inadequate. Perhaps they are
not aware that the general public has
noticed that the earnings of the rail-
roads, because of their selfish policy,
are actually unable to perform. There
engines, better roadbeds and better
terminals. But before the increased
rates are granted, would it not be we'll
to require the roads to place them
selves in condition to handle the traf-
fic of the country? The roads say, in
substance. eve have pocketed and
spent the profits of the past and our
equipment is worn out If the rates
are advanced we will build new ter
minals, new freight cars, new engines
and give you better service when these
are provided" The answer of the
people should be EITHER build your
terminals and freight cars and en-
gines out of the profits we have given
you in the past. or turn the railroads
over to the people, who are now
asked to rebuild them. FARM, Stock
and Home.

LabOr's Opportunity,

Labor has so far held it's own in
the establishments incident to the
prosec It'll n of the war; Governor
Whitman has vetoed tie Brown bill
permitting suspension of the labor
laws during the war, and President
Wilson has reaffirnled his opposition
TO acton by state legislatures that
would weaken safeguards and lower
standards. The Children's Bureau of
the Department of Labor is jealousy
guarding the interests of children, and
there has been apparently a subsid-
encc OF the demand from canning and
cotton mill interests for the right to
employ women and children without
restriction. The progress already
made is proving permanent, and pub
lie opinion has been quick to con-
denim every proposal to take. back
ward step. On the affirmative side,
organized labor enters upon the war
period with greater prestige than it
has ever enjoyed before. The rocogni-
ton given to labor in England, France
and Russia has reacted here, and to-
day Mr.. Gompers' very enthusiastic ac-
quiescence in the war, offensive as it
was to thousands of his own followers
has given organized labor distinct
advantage. So has the way in which
President White of the United Mine
Workers set about obtaining tho re-
cent wage increases on the ground that
they were required as part of the MOI
biliZation of the nations coal miners,
whose cooperation he pledged. La
Dor has won the confidence of the
| public and proved it's right to demand
public consideration in return Labor's
greatest objective in this country is
| still the right to organize-a right
heretofore successfully denied to a
! majority of wage earners. The vital
| question with respect to labor and the
war is after all not whether or not
| labor laws shall be temporarily sus-
! pended bat whether or not labor or
! ganization is to be extended. Mr..
Gompers and the executive council of
! the Federation have promised to take
! no advantage of war conditions in
! seeking change in the status quo,
with a proviso that wage increases in
| the cost of living. Does this mean
that no attempt is to be made to ex-
tend organization? The United Mine
! Workers insist on the prOpriety of
continuing their organizing activities.
In Kentucky coal miners have been
! discharged in large numbers for join
ing the union, and the result has been
a partial stoppage of work 1t is an
opportunity for labor to drive home
its point that in joining o union wage
earners are exercising right that
cannot be questioned, and that the en-
! ployer who discriminates against or
discharges union men is himself re-
sponsible for any friction or Interrupt
ton of work that follows. In every
controversy that arises, labor will en-
! joy a tremendous advantage because
of the unqualified support it has &C
corded the government. The Pub
