FREIGHT RATES AND SILVER

Salt Lake Mining Review: Having
been advised that the rates on crude
bullion shipments to the Atlantic
coast would be increased 33 1-3% on
the 26th, the smelling companies i'm
mediately proceeded to protect them
selves by making larger deductions
in the amounts to be paid the pro-
ducers of silver. lead and copper.
These added deductions amount to II
cent per pound on lead and copper
and 1 cent an ounce on silver. How
ever, the better prices obtainable
for both silver and lead, with fair
prospects of strong &C Jper prices
when industry gets b. y into its
stride again. causes the smeltermen
to predict that their added charge
will be more than made good in the
market price Of the metals.
At the same time the mine oper-
ator is confronted with higher rates
or his crude ore, higher rates on fuel
and other supplies to the mines, so
he is not so certain that he will not
be made to hold the sack" for ev-
erybody. Already nearly taxed to
death and burdened with frequent de-
mands of miners for higher pay, with
periodical disruption of his operating
machine by strikes and walkouts and
the ever-increasing rate of inefficien-
cy of the forces employed, the mine
operator does not view the future as
optimistically as he might.
But every cloud has a silver lining,
and all the available information com
ing through financial and legislative
sources makes 1t reasonable certain
that silver is shortly again going to
sell at considerably lore than 81 an
ounce, while lead is practically GER
tain to command its present or better
prices for a long time to come. When
high Government officials-like Sec
rotary Baker, for instance-goes to
calculating what the Government may
not do in case silver goes to $40 an
ounce and when such an official pub
licly admits that world conditions are
sure to cause the white metal to ad-
vance, the mine operator can take
heart; and we believe 1t will pay him
to keep on developing and be pre-
pared to take advantage of the higher
prices that are sure to come. 1t does
not seem necessary to become alarmed
over the periodical vaporings of f.
nancial interests which are beginning
to ask that Congress be requested to
work for the complete elimination of
silver as a money metal. The worlds
use of silver for coinage purposes is
just as certain to expand as it is GER
tain that day follows night. Silver
mining and lead mining and copper
mining are due for a long period of
prosperity, so remember that as we

PART.T|MEL LAW
Interpretation Of An Act to Provide
For the Establishment OF Part
time Schools and Glasses and to
Compel Attendance Of Minors Upon
Such schools and Classes.
APPROVED MARCH 25, 1919.

This Act provides for compulsory
education of children up to the age of
is years. Under this age minors are
required to attend school except when
employed and employed minors must
attend part-time classes for at least
four hours a week when such classes
are established in the districts where
they reside. Nothing in the Act is
to be construed as permitting a child
under Is years of age to remain out
of school when not employed. The
law forbids idleness. These young
people must be either in school or at
work.
Schools are required by this law to
establish part-time classes wherever
there are fifteen or more prospective
students; they may. of course, set up
part-time instruction for a smaller
number.
Employers are required to coop
crate in part-time education by per-
hitting their employees to attend
classes during working hours, and by
including the time spent in classes in
the legal length of the working day
for children. Employers must keep
on file for every employed minor un-
der Is years of age an Employment
Certificate issued by the local school
authorities. Parents are also re-
quired to cooperate with the schools
by sending their employed children
to part-time classes when established.
Penalties are provided for employers
and parents falling to comply with
the law. The local school authorities
responsible for the attendance of
children at the regular schools are
made responsible for the additional
attendance required by this Act.
The State Department of Vocation
al Education is given supervision OF
all part-time instruction and directed
to make regulations for administer
ing it.
Part-time classes conducted in ac-
cordance with State and Federal rul-
ings shall be subsidized with State
and Federal vocational funds, the
subsidy to amount to at least one
half of the expenditure for teaching
and co-ordinating part-time classes.

DAYTON GOLD DREDGE
TO START SEPTEMBER S

Invitations have been received in
Eureka from the Gold Canyon Dredg-
ing Company to attend the COM
mencement of operations Of the
dredging plant In the placer fields in
lower Gold Canyon. near Dayton, on
Sunday, September s.. This event,
which is one of great moment in the
mining annals of Nevada, and especi-
ally of the Comstock region, will
mark a most important departure in
the recovery of gold from the gravel
of the famous canyon, and the days
program will include appropriate ex-
ercises and an opportunity for all
present to view the actual working
of the giant machine. officials of
the company will be present, as well
as prominent mining men all over
the Coast and West.
The Gold Canyon dredging opera
tions are among the first, IL not the
first, attempted in Nevada. and GER
tainly in this part Of the State, and
will be in great contrast to the meth
DDS employed by the early day placer
miners and pioneers. The company
has an extensive area of ground pros
pected, and 1t is anticipated that the
dredge will be in operation for many
years to come.
Gold was discovered in Gold Can
yon in either 1858 or 1859, by pros
pectors from California, and the main
channel Of the canyon proved very
rich. The gold apparently was once
contained in the veins Of the Com
stock, which were broken down and
their precious burdens carried down
the canyon by storms. The deposit
that is to be dredged overs a wide
mesa-like canyon and Is Is to 40 feet
in depth. 1t has been worked in des-
ultory fashion through shafts for
many years. but never on a large
scale.
Buckley Wells, head Of the dredg-
ing company. is also president of the
United Comstock Mines Company,
which is now engaged in preparatory
work for the mining and milling OPP
erations on a very extensive scale in
Gold Hill at the head of Gold Can
yon and plans for which include a
OOO-ton mill.
