The requesta come from public offi- cials, contractora and workmen all over the country, the great amount of inte- rest manifested being due in a measure to the fuct that the decision is largely at. vanance with recent opinions down by the courts of other localities, notably the recent decision of Judge Richardson of Roston, The decision of Judge Tuley ia in the case of the Chicago Building Trades council va. the board of education of the city of Chicago, to test the right of the shifts of extra men, board to insert the “union clause” in ita for The Canadian Pacific Gold Fields com- pany, owners of the Wilcox mine near Ywir, will resume work on that proper- ty soon. £ Darrow & French have commenced ‘ on their P creek claim, the Big Patch, and recent assays from this ore havegiven $6000 in gold.
