SEES End OF The n. P. |.
Resignation of Kansas President Indi-
Gates Dissolution Near.

Saiina, Kan, Sept. 19.-Henry Nell
sen has resigned as the state president
of the Nonpartisan league, and those
who have watched the progress of the
league believe this is the beginning of
the end of the organization in Kansas.
Nelson has been one of the most ac-
tive workers for the league ever since
it first appeared in the state, bat was
displeased with the attendance at the
meeting in Salina September 8, which
had been expected to bring more than
two thousand leaguers from all over
Kansas. There were only LAP MEM
bers who/cast votes on the question OF
adopting a new constitution.
Nelson fought the adoption of this
constitution and he frankly asserts
that this is one of the reasons for his
resignation. He says his own business
needs him, in his letter to the league.
Nelson has believed that the league
had to be sold" to the farmers by ex-
perienced statesmen. He also believed
that the membership fees and dues
should be maintained at SIS and $1s
each. But these who put thru the
new constitution, over Nelson's pro-
tests. abolished the solicitors with
their Ford coupes and decided that
each of the local chapters of the
work in their communities without
paid organizers or solicitors. The
membership fee was reduced to sl2,
abolishing the fee of the organizer
and the dues of IS. abolishing the re-
newal fee which went to the organ
izers.
The league has had no more active
worker than Nelson. His resignation
is taken to mean that he sees the
breaking up of the organization in
Kansas and he is getting out while
the getting is good" Farmers them
selves are said to have had little luck
in bringing in new members, but the
paid and trained organizers were very
successful. 1t is asserted that Nelson
told the league leaders that their plan
meant that the league would die in
Kansas.

While there doubtless are many
more men than jobs, probably there
also are many jobs waiting for some
one to filf them. 1t is related that n
reporter for the New York Tribune
went forth the other day to determine
for himself and for his paper whether
it is actually as difficult to find en-
ployment as 1t is claimed and in three
hours he found three jobs. At sew
eral other places he was told there
was no opening but there might be
in a day or two. The three jobs Of
fered him come under the category
of common labor. On another day
the same reporter spent eight hours
hunting a white collar" Job. He was
offered two jobs to address envelopes
at a rate of/pay which would have
enabled him to make three dollars a
day. Clerical positions, he discovered.
are not so easily found as manual la
Dor jobs. Many of those who arc
classified as jobless probably are un-
willing to take such work as they can
get.

Not the least amusing story told
him was a visit to a certain popular
New York state county resort where
nothing but the best in meat and
vegetables, raised right on the place,
were supposed to be placed on the

Something about the meat seemed
to throw Depew into a reminiscent
mood and finally he asked:

Henry Ford found that cutting
prices brought orders for cars. His
output is eclipsing all earlier records.
Judge Gary said cutting prices would
not bring any orders for steel. Judge
Gary has been proven to have been
wrong. AS steel prices have gone
down, orders have increased. The
railroad managers said lower freight
rates would not increase eusiness. but.
as rates have been reduced, not only
traffic but net income have increased.

BED ROCK FLUME FOR
EAGLE CREEK PLACERS
HYDRAULICS WILL BE USED TO
WASH DOWN THE RICH
GRAVEL BEDS.

Ten men are now employed at the
Dunlap & Smith placer camp on East
Eagle creek installing a bed rock
flume This will be 500 feet in length
and will treat some of the richest por-
tions OF the placer diggings along
that creek. A water flume, more than
q mile in length has heen completed
and this will furnish the power to
drive the big giants to be installed in
time for the high water next spring.
For many years these two veteran
placer miners have pinned their faith
to the Eagle creek district and at
times have been well rewarded for
their efforts. They have carefully
the pay streak and are
convinced that a bed rock fume into
which the rich gravels can be wash
ed by a hydraulic will give rich re-
turns in gold.
1t is planned to have everything in
for the high water next
spring and to keep the giants in OPP
Grafton as long as the water holds
out This will give time to handle a
arge area of the prospected ground |
and will demonstrate the ACCESSIBILITY !

next season.

MORNING MINE REPORTS
GREAT ORE DISCOVERY
LARGE NEW BODY OF GALENA
is OPENED ON 22Oo- FOOT
LEVEL OF MINE.

Authentic reports from the Morn
ing mine of the Federal company at
Mullan are to the effect that one of
the most important ore discoveries
ever made in the history of the pro-
perty has just been disclosed. The
new strike was made on the 22OO-foot
level of the mine in a crosscut from
the main shaft and consists of high
grade galena ore. This discovery, it
is stated, will add at least 10 years
life to the mine and argues well for
the continuance of the ore bodies of
the Morning to great depth.
Producing 1900 Tons Daily.
On the 2OOO-foot level of the mine
the company has been mining on
body of high grade ore which has
been and is still producing tonnage at
the rate of 1900 tons per day, and af-
ter the high grade has been sorted
out the mill feed is said to average
per cent lead with good silver val
Ies. So little zinc is found in the
over levels that it was found neces-
sary to dispense with the zinc recov-
cry plant and at present no zinc con-
,entrates are being produced.
