THE STRIKE SETTLEMENT
Settlement of the trouble at the
Premier mine gives the greatest
satisfaction to the entire district

Shipping property of the district—
the mine whose phenomenal rich
ness is responsible for the world

tramp, and that its operations should

general trend of public sympathy
has beeu with the men, and the sit
uation has been endured with pa
tience.
Both sides are to be congratulat
ed, the men for gaining wsliat they
asked, and the management tor be
ing now able to proceed unrestrict
ed with the mine’s development.
