FRE|BURG Mine IS
ADVANCING TUNNEL

The Freiburg mine, after being
closed since last October on ac-
count of weather conditions, re-
sumed operations several days ago
with crew of nine men. James
Petrulas, who is one of the principal
stockholders in the company, will
give the property his personal sup
ervision.
F. Croker, mining engineer
of Salt Lake, recently completed
a survey preparatory to starting
mining operations. The main tun-
mel, which is in distance of 1870
feet, will be carried forward to a
point Immediately underneath the
bottom of the old workings, which
years ago produced quantity of
high-grade shipping ore. The tun-
mel should intersect the main vein
$50 feet below the old workings,
and it is estimated that the OBJ
jectives will be reached when the
tunnel is advanced further dis
lance of 200 feet. The tunnel in
reaching the present point, cut two
assures carrying good milling ore.
One is three feet wide and the
other, seven feet. No drifting has
been done on either vein as all
work has been conferred on driv-
ing the tunnel to the main objec-
tive.
Surface conditions indicate that
several other parallel tissue veins
will be cut in extending the tunnel.
Another shift will be put on as
soon as Petrulas returns to the
property.
The property is we'll equipped
with up-to-date machinery and a
large tonnage of wood is cut and
stacked right at the mine. The
company is well financed and is
preparing to do extensive develop
ment work.-Goldfield Tribune.

c. |. RICHARDS IS
OUT FOR CONGRESS

A primary contest for the Demo-
cratic nomination for congress was
assured today when Charles L. Rich
ards, chairman of the Democratic
state central committee and former
Nevada assemblyman, authorized
the statement that he would be a
candidate.
Mr.. Richards, it is understood,
had planned makings his formal an
nouncement later in the week, but
unforeseen developments in Demo-
cratic ranks served to expedite this
move.
Charles. L. Richards is native
of Nevada, having first seen the
light of day at Austin, Lander
county. He was educated at Stan
ford University graduating in law
in 1901 and thereafter he entered
into business at Tonopah. His first
political experience as an office
seeker came in 1902, when he was
elected district attorney of Nye
county, serving during the years
1908 and 1904. Later he was
elected to the assembly from Nye
county.
For years Mr.. Richards has been
extensively interested in mining in
southern Nevada and was a promi-
nent figure in the early days of
Manhattan. He was also active in
the Divide boom. Several years
ago Mr.. Richards acquired home
in Reno and has been active here
since 1919. He is now engaged in
the practice of law in this city.

URGES EMPLOYEES
NOT TO STRIKE

General Manager Dyer, of the
Southern Pacific has addressed a
communication to the employees of
the road urging them not to vote
for the strike. In his communica-
ton, the General Manager calls at
tention to the fact that the matter
of contracting labor outside the rail-
road shops is not an issue on
the Southern Pacific, as this policy
has never been adopted by this
road.
The letter also recites the fact
that since 1917 the compensation
of the men has either been fixed
by the railroads or the United States
Labor board, and in that time the
men have had three general in
creases and two decreases, the last
of which will become effective on
July 1.
The Dyer letter also contains the
statement that after the July 1st
cut, the wages of the employees will
be from 1858 to rs per cent higher
than they were in December 1917.
The letter recites the composition
of the labor board and suggests that
inasmuch as the men accepted the
increase the board made, they are
bound to accpet the decreases in
the same spirit.
Even if the letter would have had
any effect, it was received too late
in this city. as ballots of the crafts
have already been cast and are now
on their way to Chicago to be
counted.
While no definite figures are
available, officials of the unions
say that the greater percentage of
the vote is for the strike, and that
a large percentage of the member
ship voted.
1t is expected that practically all
of the ballots will have been cast
by the 18th of the month, and that
the result of the nation wide ballot
ing viii be announced by the first
of the month.-Sparks Tribune.

ing of the shopmen in connection

troversy
Mr.. Maguire's reply informs Mr.

late, that the railroad was willing
to meet representatives of the for
mer employees in July, but then they
insisted upon settling only on a ma
tional basis and on terms the rail-
road company could not grant. He
points out that ample warning was
given the strikers to return to their
jobs or they would be declared Va
cant. He informs Mr.. Burke that
the new employees have formed the
Association of Maintenance of
Equipment Employees of the Lehish
Valley Railroad with which the rail-

COAL FOR ALL
IS THE OUTLOOK
Uniform Deliveries Planned
BY Dealers So That All
May Be Served.
RESTRICT AMOUNTS SOLD
Effort Made to Have Public
Buildings, Hospitals and
Schools Use Soft Coal.

Although there seems to be a
supply of coal coming in to this city
and surrounding country so that
everyone is able to get some of the
black diamonds for their coal bins,
the Central New Jersey Coal Ex-
change, with offices in the Wool
worth Building, New York, recon-
mends to it's members and to coal
dealers in Union and Middlesex
counties that deliveries be made in
as uniform a man. er as possible so
that people will be able to obtain
some fuel at all times.
This recommendation Is made in
order that a fair and equitable dis
tribution of coal may be made so
that a thin film of coal will cover
the entire community until the nor
NAL supply begins to come through.
Where consumption from the pres
ent date to March 81, 1928, is not
in excess of five tons, deliveries are
restricted to maximum of one
ton; ten tons, restricted to two tons;
fifteen tons. restricted to three tons;
twenty tons, restricted to four tons,
and thirty tons or over. restricted
to six tons. Dealers are requested
to resort to smaller units of delivery
where they find their supply will
not permit them to follow the above
outline.
Dealers are also urged to question
new customers as to whether they
have orders placed with other
dealers. No persons are to be sup
piled with coal who have a month
or more supply on hand. Efforts to
get hospitals, schools. offices and
public buildings to use h.tuminous
coal is being made SO that more
Of the anthracite will be available
for household use.
1t Is suggested by the exchange
that dealers offer customers two
tons of bituminous coal for his fur
mace and one ton of anthracite for
the range as a great many house.
holders can use screened bituminous
in their furnaces with satisfactory
results.
At Woodbridge the coal commit
tee is very active and this activity
promises to keep this place well
supplied until the shipments be-
come normal. The members of the
committee are going from house to
house in this way obtaining an es-
innate of the amount of coal on
hand and making arrangements for
deliveries to those who have none.
