Potter was the discovererand locatorof the famous Iron Mountain copper mine, which isnow a great source of revenue to this city and provides employment for hun- dreds of men. On April 8, 1880, Alvin Potter and James Salee discovered the mine and filed loca- tion notices. They continued in partner- ship until about three and a half years ago, when Salee purchased Potters inter- est for $5000. Shortly thereafter Salee sold to the Mountain Mining Company | for a big price. | Potter was 75 years of age. It is said | his relatives soon disposed of his money and left him nearly destitu: He finally | appli-d to the County Hospital and wa« | an inmate there for some time. His mind became weak, and at times, in his hallu- cination:, he imagined he still owned the | big mine, and would occasionally send word to the owners to vacate or to do vas rious chores for him there. Leaving the hospital about a year ago, he occupied a | house on ground belonging to his old partner, Salee, where death relieved him from his troubles. ! He was virtually the founder of the | mining indvutry in this county, and at one time—in 18 )—owned the entire Copper City mining_ region, now o fa- mous as a copper-producing section. He should have been worth millions, but he died a pauper. Potter was given an elaborate burial and a monument will be erected to his He had a daughter | and son, the former liv.ng in Alameda.

Accused of Failure to Pay Is Employes in Cash Oncs a Konih. FRESNO, Caw, June 28.—Complaints have been filed against the Fresno Flume tion Company of Clovis by Constable E. 8. McClung, who accuses it of violating the law passed by the last Legislature making it a misdemeanor for a corporation not to pay the wages to its employes once a month. Just before the law went into effect and when its enact- ment was not generally known the Clovis Lumber Company had its employos sign contracts to work for the season. 1n the agreement it was incorporzted that they were to receive their pay in time checks. Since April 1, when the lumber concern learned of the existence of the law, it has paid its men cash regularly on the 15th of every month; but the contracts with the men were a violation of the law, and for this reason Consitable McClung instis tuted the prosecutions. Tbe luborers sided with the company, and when one case came up for trial the employe from whom the corporation had exacted the unlawful agreement testified that the clause regarding time checks was not inserted as a condition to his employ- ment. He had always been paid in this manner, and it was not an_exaction from hi Judge Butler held that the law dia not apply to the case, and accordingly dis- sed i, be workmen of the Sanger Lumber Company are receiving their wages in time checks, the company having decided to dely the new law and fight it in the court Similar laws have been decclared unconstitutional in other States. - Redding Views a Phenomenon.
