INCREASE USE AND CONTROL
PRICE OF SILVER.

The meeting of the western division
Of the American Mining Congress in
San Francisco last week took action
on numerous questions directly af-
fecting the mining industry and which
it is believed will be productive of
beneficial results. Perhaps the most
important resolution adopted was that
calling upon the senate silver and gold
inquiry commission, now in session in
Washington, to take Immediate steps
to call a conference of representatives.
from every silver producing country
of the western hemisphere for the
purpose of devising means to secure
larger use of silver for monetary
purposes throughout the world and
also to restore the control of the mar
ket price of the metal to the produc-
ers. II is proposed that this confer
ence shall be held upon the invitation
of the United States government. Ger
tainly no more opportune time could
be selected for calling such confer
ence. The one thing needed now more
than anything else to bring order out
of world chaos is a basis for stable
currency in the countries Of Europe.
and the adoption of silver as a none
tary metal at a fixed standard of
value seems to present a practical
solution to the question Under the
leadership of this government it is be-
lieved that such plan could be work.
ed out and the silver and gold com
mission of the senate is the instrument
through which the initiative should be
taken. a conference such as proposed
by the western division made up of
representatives, of all silver producing
countries of the western world would
exert a wonderful influence in bring
ing about this monetary recognition
of silver and at the same time it
would be possible for the conference
to work out plan through which the
silver producers could regulate the
market price for the metal Tt is esti-
mated that so per cent Of the world
production of silver comes from the
United states. Mexico. Canada and
Peru. and yet the price received for
the metal is fixed daily by few Lon
don brokers' That situation could at
least be changed if the producers will
get together and with that accom-
plished the producers would be in po- I
sition to exercise a more powerful in ,
nuenoe in extending the use of silver
as "a money metal

LABOR AND THE RE-
PUBLICAN TARIFF.

The laboring people of America
should find something of interest tc
them in the recent announcement OF
import statistics for the nine months
ended with March 81, 1928. OF these
nine months six were under the re-
publican tariff law During those nine
months we imported crude and other
materials for use in manufacturing or
partly manufactured commodities for
J further use in manufacturing to the
value of 1851, 100000 as compared
with imports of similar commodities
to the value of s94s.OOO. 900. in the cor
responding nine months previously
under the democratic tariff law
The main point to be kept in mind
is this-the increased importation Of
crude and other materials for use in
manufacturing means that the raw
material will be brought here to be
made up into the finished product by
American labor Under the democrat
ic law the tendency was to manufact-
ure the commodity in foreign coun-
tries where labor is cheap. Under the
republican policy which imposes
tax on importations. the tendency is
to bring in the raw material and man
ufacmre it here Under the repubH-
can law there is more work performed
in America and consequently there are
more jobs for American laborers /
When there are more jobs for Ameri-
can laborers the inevitable effect is
the raising OF American wages.
The first essential of prosperous /
conditions is plenty of useful occupa-
ton. The next essential Is a fair
wage Under the republican protec-
tive tariff policy there are more jobs
in America than there are under the
democratic policy This is inevitably
The case. because under the democrat
c free trade or low tariff policy we
'uy a larger proportion of goods made
lbroad. which means less work for the
american workman. Notwithstanding
he fact that the republican tariff law
nuts out much importation of foreign
made goods, there has also been an
Increase in the importations of manu-
actured goods which demonstrates :
onclusively that the tariff rates are
ot so high as to be prohibitive. as
vas claimed by the democrats at the
Ime the tariff law was framed.
The highly important consideration O
: that we are increasing more rapid a
: our importations of raw materials
Or manufacture here thus giving
,ore employment to American labor
nd at higher wages. O

from exercising their rights as citi-

larry was insufficient in numbers to
cope with the situation, and it was
necessary to call upon law-abiding
citizens to aid the state police force in
preserving law and order, and where
as the efficient, peaceful and economi-
cal manner in which the situation was
handled demonstrated the necessity Of
the cooperation between law abiding
citizens and the authorities;
Therefore, be it resolved that the
Northern Idaho Chamber of Commerce
commends the action taken and the
method by which the situation was
handled, and recommends that com

Good Showing of Ore Opened West of
the Shaft.
According to reports from the Tar
box, the recent work started west of
the shaft under the direction of Stan
ley r. Moore, mining engineer, has re-
suited in disclosing an excellent show
ing of ore. The work was taken up
in an old tunnel driven many years
ago to prospect the vein. AS describ-
ed, this tunnel is being driven on
shoot of lead silver ore of good mill
ing grade, and very little zinc is in
evidence, This work will be continued
to determine the extent of the ore
and similar work will soon be taken
up on the big south vein, where the
indications for a large ore body are
even better than on the original Tar
box vein.

Lead.


THE official price of the American
Smelling & Refining company contin-
ues at 725c, New York.
1.-THE lead market has been remark
ably quiet all week. both here and in
the middle west, and is apparently
just marking time with no pressure
to sell or buy, particularly around
New York. where hardly a sale has
been made The current production,
however, is being well absorbed by
contract orders. Demand has been
better from foreign consumers and
more of the Mexican production is
leaving the United States than was
true a short time ago. Production in
the United States has been somewhat
less since the price dropped from
above Sc. and it is probable that the
wind-up of the Pittman act pur-
chases of silver will have a further
effect in slightly lessening production.
No marked drop in production may be
expected. however with the price
above &c, which seems likely to be
for some time.

Discussing the metal markets in the

"The metal markets continue com

copper have improved in the last
week. Consumers are not buying for
forward delivery to the extent that
they were a few months ago, as their
bookings have declined somewhat ow-
ing to the fall in metal prices. Still,
practically all the rolling mills and
manufacturers of metal products are
as busy as ever and metal is going in
to consumption on almost as large a
scale as it was in the winter and the
early spring.

In addition to the awards of S25, SIS,

prizes to all others This was done
on account of the fact that this was
