THE PRICE THEY PAY

Some years ago Montgomery, Ward & Co.,, was one of the largest ma l order houses in the world. It got in to difficulties with it's truck drivers and carried a fight on that lasted a year, but it won, the drivers union being disrupted. But in the meantime the drivers were busy and by the time
 the strike was over Montgomery, Ward & Go. had been reduced con- siderably in business, its rival, Sears, Roebuck & Company going to the front. By busting the union and sav- ing few cents in wage the big firm lost an enormous amount of its for mer business. As exenplifying the difference in the business of the two firms today we quote the report for the month of September: Sears, Roe buck, $14,375,4 ,429; Montgomery Ward, $7,088,684. This shows that employ CTS may be a penny wise and ponnd foolish.

This work consists of the diamond drilling of the proper ty, one drill hole having already been finished. While this hole has been driven through some very rich mater ial it was not considered of great importance. Another hole is now un der way.
 The property of the Lucky Boy Min 'ng and Milling company is situated in the east part of the district and it is the impression of mining men that the vein On which the recent discov- cry was made in the Telluride tra- verses the property. Should this prove to be the case it is possible that something good may be developed in the mine, although there is possibility of opening the vein that shows in the estate with gratifying results. This vein shows some excellent ore and vein width is quite important. Like
