That McRitchie Report

A report current during the past few days to the effect t h illness h a d befallen " Blackie " McRitchie, w h o went into the isolated district between Bell-Irving river and Taylor Creek, north o f the Mass river, with Ernest Blue and Tommy Walters some weeks ago, appears t 0 be another of those peculiar can- ards w h i c h so frequently appear in t h is neck of the woods.
 According to the report, a note written by MT. Blue, in which he said McRitchie waf ill and was being carried b y his companions, was found by some Indians in a cabin near the east end of Bowser Lake. The note was said to have been dated in mid-April and in- dicated that the party was con- tinuing on to their destination, despite McRitchie's indispos- ition.
 The Herald has been unable to trace the yarn to any reput- able source. Recent visitors to [ h e Bowser L a k e section to have heard nothing of such character concerning the party and the only Indians who have visited Stewart since the departure of the Blue party did not, so far as can be learn ed, bring in report of such character.

price of the metal in the world markets and should speedily restore it to approximately the formery normal value.
 The resolution provides fur ther that silver so received by the United States shall be coined into dollars of standard weight and fineness and be de- posted in the treasury, and silver certificates be issued against the dollars so coined.
 The resolution is to be consid- cred this week by sub-com- mittee of the senate banking and currency committee, which will also consider the Pullman bill, providing for the purchase and coinage of not to exceed five million ounces of silver a month, to be paid for in silver certificates. Senator Putnam is said to have proposed the combination of the Somers measure and his own.
 However, the most encourag- ing possibility for early action on silver is seen in the an- nouncement that there is evil dence of an awakening interest in the White House in the gen. eral subject of action to manip- ulate upward the price of sil- yer.

SAYS B|G BANKERS
 OPPOSED ID SILVER

Commenting on the recent declaration of Senator Pittman that silver opponents have been compelled to forgo efforts to induce the administration to call a silver conference because president Hoover will not call one ;" the Wallace (Id- aho) Press-Times, a journal widely noted for it. plain speaking attitude on public questions, says:
 From the statement of Sem ltor Pittman i t appears that the criticisms o President Hoover's passive resistance to any recognition of silver which have been made in these columns, are amply confirmed. Nearly IS months ago congress authorized the president to call an international conference to consider the silver question in ;ts relation to the slump in world commerce and particul- arly with regard to the Hoover panic in the United States.
 The president contempt uously ignored this authoriz- ation.
 The reason thereof is not far to seek.
 The New York -Internation- al-Plunderbund, led by J. P. Morgan & Co.,, is viciously op- posed to any recognition 0 f silver, particularly a return to bimetallism.
 Again the reason thereof is not far to seek.
 The re-establishment of bi- metallism would break t h e strangle hold of the Plunder- bund, but i t would restore wages an d salaries, revive prices, validate all the foreign bonds which are now so badly depressed, II d vitalize the commerce of the world, espec- tally that of the western hemi- sphere, which supplies about 85 per cent of the worlds pro- duction of silver.
 In a word, the remonetiz- ation of silver on the constitut- ional basis of sixteen to one would restore life and prosper ity to furnishing world almost instantly.
 But the Plunderbund re- presented by J. P. Morgan & Co.,, in N e w York, Eugene Meyer Jr., first governor of the Federal Reserve banking sys- tenn, Ogden L. Mills, secretary of the treasury of the United States, and Herbert c. Hoover, president of the United States, does not want silver restored to it's rightful place as a money metal. The Plunderbund is in- different to the immense dam age, t h e huge loss, and the cruel sufferings of the people,"

.SEN BORAH OUTLINES
 RESTORATION PLAN

In probably the most forceful utterance on the present situ- ation that has been heard in Congress, Senator William E. Borah, chairman of the Senate foreign relations committee, declared last week that the coming summer would be pregnant with salvation or. disaster" and outlined a pro- gram for world recovery, which includes the restoration of silver as an essential to the return of prosperity, according to Washington reports.
 Borah's program is three fold and includes:
 1. Armament reductions.
 2. Settlement of reparations.
 5. Restoration of silver.
 Borah's severely criticized the government for failing to take action on the silver quest ion and demanded to know whether an international con- ference on the question has been blocked by France and Great Britain, as has been re- ported.
 In addition to pointing out remedies for the economic dis order, Borah's thunderous mes sage bore a distinct note of alarm over the lack of con- structive effort toward rehabil- itation.
 " The timidity of the govern ment is sinking the peoples in degradation. We have no leadership ," he declared.
 Borah's predicted that the Geneva Disarmament Confer ence and the Lausanne Debts Conference will fail and de- clared that separations would " destroy Europe" unless they were settled, so that Europe can start an economic recovery.
 " Unless silver is restored to the place it occupied prior to 1925, to restore to some extent the purchasing power of half the world, there will not, in my judgement, be any return to prosperity" the Idaho senator thundered.
 " Under t h e present situ- ation ," he said,' the masses everywhere, including our own country, are becoming rest less, " adding significantly, Eve do not generally accom- plish things in this country by revolution"
 Borah's drew attention to the fact that Rome was not saved from overthrow by i t s vast wealth, declaring that t h national wealth is estimated at $400,000,000,000, |" But Rome had as much when it fell on account of a defect in the administration of it's wealth." he declared, adding h a t "China has the greatest un- developed wealth i n h e world"
 Senator Borah's also attacked the so-called gold mentality, declaring we must get rid of it."

CHAMBER COMMERCE
 HOLDS DINNER MEET.

the Hyder Chamber Of Com merce in Pioneer Hall Wednes- d ay evening; twenty-eigh+ members and visitors h.ing present when the session was called to order by Chas. Sand ford, president of the board of trustees. Included among the visiting elements were q con- siderable number of ladies of the town, many of whom are lately displaying increasing in terest in the activities of the Chamber by attending the monthly dinner meetings. Ex- pressing the Chambers appre- citation of their apparent inter- est, the chairman voiced the be- lief that the work of the organ iZation would be helped mater tally by the cooperation of the feminine elements of the com- munity and said it was hoped that more members of the fair sex would participate in the meetings.
 The meeting was pervaded by fine spirit of optimism re- regarding the future and of confidence in the camps out look.
 Following an excellent repast, prepared and served by the Friendship Club, the Chamber transacted a variety of routine business, including the reading of several communications rel ative to the Salmon river flood control project, now before Congress, showing that the Chambers of Commerce of Los Angeles, San Francisco and Se- attle are lending their assist toward securing favorable act ion in Washington.
 At the conclusion of the bus mess program, J. K. Green. whom late primary election re- turns indicate will be one of the democratic party candidates for Territorial representative, outlined briefly his platform. Included among the proposals to which he is pledged is an enactment providing for bi- weekly payment of wages in the Territory. MT. Green said such an enactment would be not only beneficial to all labor but would mean the payment of approximately $60O,O0 in wages every two weeks in the salmon packing industry. Un- der present conditions most of the wages paid by the packers is paid in Seattle and San Fran cisco, and Alaska derives no benefit. He also favors pro- lection for resident fishermen by placing a high tax on non- resident fishermen and pointed out that this would also tend to create more Alaska citizenship.
 MT. Green said he would like to see an adequate workmen's compensation act; one that would not only protect the lab orer against want while incap- aciated from injury but also provide protection for merch- ants and others who assist in carrying the worker during in- ] Continued on Page 4

HOOVER WILLING ID
 CONSIDER SILVER

Hoover deliberately refrains from making an effort to in- duce a world conference on silver, and the more recent and direct charge of Senator Borah that the chief executive has failed to proceed in good faith to procure an internat- ional conference as requested by the Senate, have struck home and caused MT. Hoover to adopt a somewhat altered attitude, is indicated in Wash ington reports this week, stat ing that the president has at last indicated a willingness to give consideration to the vari- ous silver proposals now under discussion.
 From the standpoint of the silver opponents, this is the most cheering news relative to silver that has emanated from the national capital and is looked upon as a most promis- ing indication that the white metal may come into its own again before long.
 The nationwide demand for cheap money, with it's enevi- table problem of imitation, is said to be the main factor in forcing the silver issue to the front. The rejection by the House of the Bonus Bill and the Senate and administration opposition to the Goldsborough bill, directing the Federal Re serve Board to restore the av- craze price level of 1921-29 by manipulation of the volume of credit and currency, owing to fear of dangerous inflation," have brought to the fore other proposals which are said to be meeting with approval in un- expected quarters.
 Many who believe that some sort of imitation is unavoidable are inclined to favor the reso- lution of chairman Somers of the House Coinage committee as the least harmful of all the inflationary measures so far proposed. This measure, which has also been introduced in the Senate, authorizes the presi- dent to accept silver in pay ment of2 the war debts during the next four years at the rate of 1i2 fine ounces for each dollar owed, provided the debt or nation does not melt or de- base its silver coins to make the payment. AS a further incent- i've to this employment of sill Yer, the measure provides that if the debtor nation shall re- store its silver coinage to fine ness of at least nine-tenths sil- yer, or shall establish the use of silver for coinage, it shall be allowed to pay its war debts at the rate of one fine ounce of silver for each dollar owed. The measure thus offers. the war debtors a substantial sav- ing in paying their debts in sil- yer and one sufficiently at tractive to induce them to buy silver and remonetize silver. This in turn will increase the

COMMUNICATED
Ely, Minnesota, Aug. 1, 1892.

Editor The Ely Miner:
The proponents of the proposed
$3.50, 100000 bond issue tell us that the
money is to be used for much needed
improvements and for the benefit of the
needy unemployed. That would be
nice if true, but, will the new addition
to the cemetery be needed during the
next two or three decades? Many
thousands of dollars have already been
spent there.
People who have checked up have
come to the conclusion that some
councilmen, their intimate friends or
relatives, were directly or indirectly the
principal beneficiaries and that the
needy unemployed got what was left.
In buying supplies for the city, out of
town friends have been highly favored
and taxpayers who for many years have
spent all their earnings with other tax
payers and business people in the town
were Disseminated against.
Judging from the number of young
drunks infesting this town nights and
early morning after city pay days. gives
ground for suspicion that not small
sum of the city payroll goes for booze
instead of to needy wives and children
of the unemployed and the taxpayers
who have to pay for this booze wouldn't
get a chance to drink it if they wanted
to.
Will the council call mass meeting
where those things can be openly dis
cussed or will they prefer to keep us in
the dark. I heard a young fellow say,
ST work for my money and have a
right to spend it as I please" Many
taxpayers work much harder than this
fellow does when he is on the city
payroll. Why shouldn't they also have
right to say something about how
their money should be spent.
A half dozen more or less drunk and
diSorderlieS making nuisance Of
themselves on the streets of town
don't tend to bring well-behaved and
