Shall We Deal in Qold and Silver Stocks in Chicago? e Mr, Justice Presents the Arguments in Favor of the Proposition; And Mr. Leo Follows After with Bome. thing on the Other Bides no., H. €, SUBTICh. While the movement to organize the proposed Mining Bosrd has had Rs friends, it has also met with more or Ieas criticlsm from onc source snd another. Thera are those who do not hast- tate to denounce it as a fraud gotten up In the juterests of n lot of secdy speculntors, for the purpose of Influenciog the market in favor of their particularproperties, and of crowding out others who do mnot choose to come intothe scheme. Its friends, on tho other hand, deny that it is o scheme for mere pri- vate galn, and losist that the for- matlon of the® Béard will not only lencfit the miners, but the merchants of Chi- cago by means of the increascd business which will knock at our gates. One of the advocates of the schemo 18 a gentleman by the name of I C. Justice, who has been staying here about a manth, who ias considerable mininz property in the 8an Juan region in Colorado, and who was scen yesterday by o TRIBUNS reporter, to whom he witlingly furnished his reasons why the Board should be formed. *TIIH ORJECT UF THE DOARD, aald he, s to handle mines and mining stocks, and give encouragement to the development of mining property. The miners In the mountains ol Colorado—and, T might say, of all that por- tlun cast of the Rocky Mountains—desiru to Tave a great centre where theycan do their busi- ness, make their exchanges of _bull- fon, ores, etc. In organizing a Board here, is necessary to get tho at the head of it,—men of busl- ness capacity, so situated that, they can glve thelr timo to it, and mnen of knofeu integrity.” “Just here,” sald the reporter, **lct mnc ask you 1f you think the men who aro at the head of this movement aro not such as you havo just spoken of a8 being necessary for this purposei’ “As far ns 1 know, they ara. 1 havomet them at two of the mectings; they appear to be men of good, sound sense, and speak with good Lmlwmcnt. 1€ there is auything against them, I ave not heard {t." * 1t tus been suggested, Mr. Justico, that the object was to et curtaln gentlemen to buy memberahips, admit no others, and, by having tho stocks which they own quoted in the papers, PREECZE OTNERS OUT.” “ If T thought that was the object 1 should bavo nothing to do with it. The membersuips are to be $50 aplece, and certalnly there can be Do freexing out beeauso the prico'is too hizh. As for the intentlon to freczo out by clamping dowu on others who would like to got tn and aro willlng to pay the prico of membership, I dou’t thivk any such motive exists, So forus I can sue the scheme is an honest one, and should succeed. ‘Tho San Franclsco Board was formed, in the same way, The memberships cost $50 each, but thev Increased in value from time to time, tho highest price ever pald_for one being $40,000. That was durfug the Donanza daye, when stocks ran up to such lmmenso pricgs,’” “To what will the revenuc from member- ships be devoted 1" “Fo paying currcnt expenses. The money will be pafd foto the hands of o Treasurcr and be drawn by order of the Board to pay ex- penses.” “WILL THERR BB ANY OTILER BOUNCES OF IN- coux " “If tho parccntu?eu an sales should not be sufliclent, thero will be the annual ducs, But 1 the Board s started right and worked right, the percentages will ho moro than sufilclent. 1n Ban Francisco they have been go larie that the Board has put up one of the finest bulldings in the dty.” #WIAT WILL DE THE WORK OF TiIX DOARD, 1P . OROANIZED 7" “The Board will rocelvo stocks of actual value,—such as are known to be good, SBuch a Board showid have a competent mining ongl- neer who will examine property and report upon 1t. The Board should recelve no stocks, and bandle no mines, but such ss are of agenuine sharacter, ‘The stocks of paylng mines in San Francisco can be placed upon this Board as welt [ lllu&'un on the San Franclsco Board, ‘fhe individual membera would be perinitted to han- dlemines, organizacemypanies, and doeverything else pertaining to mining, but any individunt who shall at ony time be found guilty of anrv fraud or ewindle shoula be expelled.” That {3 the rule on tho 8an Frauclsco “Doard, on your Board of Trado hero; and should bo the rule It this Board Is formud.” ‘“How will the Hourd proceed to work after getting started i’ *I'ne lirste thing to do will bo to get a good room for the' display of ores aud the salc of stocks.

He has a largo collection of rozks, geodes, petrifactions, and other minerat curlosities, wiich are of a taking character, fully exemplifying the old adage that **All {s not gold which gtitters.” At the first meeting, ln compliance with the call, there waaquite a laree number of mining experts present, Slmeon W, King was called to the chair, and explatned the object of the meeting.

At tho next mecting Mr, Bkinuer in a short speech advocated the forming of the Stock Board, No action was taken on the reso- Jutfon further than the appofutinent of a com- mittee to to take the steps novessary for an or- ganization and report at o subsequent meeting, which was held Monday evening at the Palmer House. At that convoeation {t was stated that o large number of THG MOST PROMINENT MERCIANTS IN THE CITY biad agreed to purchase scats in the new Loard, and particular stross was lald on the nssertion that Fcelu & Lelter had agreed to purchase u conple of chairs inthe Association and give it their actlve support.

IHere comes another drama of Far Western life,~a plece which, with all 1ts grotesquery, retains a certaln flavor of the mountsina, The plagright has sketched out a pathway, and has left the hardy mountaineers to follow it out, and the actors, belug for the most part persons not trained in tho harness of stagze ' business," there Is a wonderful freedom frota all conven- tlonality fn the stage effects produced hy them. Cémpared with the *“soziety drama’ of the dag, or the “domestic,” or the *emotlonal,"” this free, rough eketch—dashed off, as it would scem, in & kind of frolic by a carcicss genlue, who builded better than he knewIs reatly an addition to our dramatic lterature. Itisestruc as the storles in the Arablan Nights. It fs not as Wlldl{V imprabable 1a incklent or stuation as one-half of the drawing-room dramas which pass current In these days, and it has the ln- incnse advantaze of dealfne with unlamilfar occurrences. The terrible Mountain Meadowa butchery-—~recently made fresh ju all minds by the tardy retsibutlon visited upon the hiead of John D.'Lec—~has an attraction for the dime novelist, and the writer of playve. The sublect has never been handied by acoinpetent artist, and 50 It has been left for artizans to deal with. Ma}, Burt ehas produced a rough-and-tumble picture to sult a certalu class, and he has handled the subject In a roughshod way that produces better cilects than the most lllmuenl polishing could have accomplished. e hns the ad- vautage of having coadjutors like Buffalo Bil, and real red men, who have paased through the scenes they strugele to wmimie, and thus the drame acquires, i thelr bandling of ity a wertain alr of reality which Is wanting In the older specimens ot this kind of workmauehip, Mr, Cody (s the hero of the plece, and to Any one famillar with Mr, Coay's personal bistory it re- uires no stretch of the fnnginailon to realize tho fncldents in which heis presented as the central figure.

Tuo maln point of the actlon js taken from * Cymbeline," and, while Lecoog 18 no more sugeestive here than Shakspeare, he §s decidedly funnier. The fun, however, is moatly w the spoken dialogus, as the music {a quite largely of a serlous char- acter.
