FAIR PRICES FOR PAPER.

Ihe print paper makers have no doubt felt quite secure in their exac-
 eions levied upon the newspaper press.
 They were. as safe in their castles of | monopoly as a feuda1 lord of medieval
 times. The newspaper world, big and
 little, would have to walk up and pay ! tr1oute, whatever the paper barons
 might decide they ought to have. . The print paper people have felt
 that they so absolutely control pro-
 duction that they car dictate their own terms. If the newspapers do not
 like the terms, they are free to get out of business.
 impending trouble in the baronial camp. Senator Smith of Arizona has 8 resolution in his pocket directing | the Federal Trade Commission to take
 charge of the production and distri-
 button of news print paper It will come as . shock to the paper kings l that Congress would even dare to con-
 slider such @ resolution But they are
 likely to ind it is a very live issue. In view of the findings of an i'm partial committee of the Senate, the pubEc has reached the conclusion i that the publishers have been sub jected to gross exactions in the mat ter of paper. The public criticises its newspapers freely, and is often impa- ient with their faults. But 1t de- bends on them as a necessity of life. | It will stand by them and it wdll back up any movement to secure reasona- | ble prices.
 1 The print paper men are up against one of two propositions, and they can 1 take their choice: Either establish | fair prices on their product, or else
 it is as sure as fate that Congress will interfere and create some form
 of control of thds industry. It will be
 a great deal cheaper and save a lot of
 fur from flying, if the coon will come
 down gracefully, before 1t becomes necessary to shoot him down.

PRICES OF COAL TO- BE
RTDUCED BY JULY ISL
Representatives to Fix Prices at Once
Will Mean Much TO the Public.

Washington, June 2S.-Sweeping re-
ductions in tho price of bituminous
coal at all mines east of the MissiSs-
ippi river, ranging from one to five
dollars 4 ton TO the public with an adj
ditional cut Of fifty cents for the gov
crnmcnt, were agreed upon today at
conferences between the operators and
government officials, The new prices
become effective July /.
-Four hundred operators who gath
cred here yesterday at call from
Secretary Lane, pledged themselves to
furnish their product by committees
from each field.
director Smith of the Geological
survey estimated that the reduced
prices would mean that the operators
would get $lSO,000,O00 less annually
for their output and that the saving to
the government and the coal consum-
ing public would he even greater.
In additional to placing prices upon
coal al the mines il was announced
that iobbcrs, brokers. retailers and
commission mon would be. permitted
to charge commissions of not more
than % cents a ton and that no more
than one commission should be charg-
cd. In other words the consumer will
sct his coal ut thc mine price plus

AT
DEEP LEVELS

Late information from the Com
stock mines this week shows that
operations are moving forward with
good results at all points. At the
Combination shaft, one of the two
hoisting ropes has arrived, and the
other is expected within a few
days. The rope already on the
ground is to be installed at once
in the north compartment of the
shaft, where guides will be put in,
and other necessary equipment.
Both of the cages have been rebuilt,
and the change room put in condi-
ton. Everywhere on the surface
preparations are complete, and eff
Gent work has been done and most
eXpeditiously. Nothing has been
left undone in the way of prelim-
inaries for the Inauguration of ac-
tive work underground by the Mid
die mines group. and the Combin-
alton is now practically ready for
business. 1t is a reminder of early

At the northend the new electric
hoist at the Union shaft has been
tested out and successfully, and it
is expected to be in regular opera
tion tomorrow. The double deck
cages have been installed. and the
operations underground will be re-
sumed in the mines working through
the shaft. The new hoist is an in
valuable addition to the mining ia

Power Company In Court

In the federal court at Carson

of the property is in California.
