VOL. III. NO. 3. FERGUSON, BRITISH COLUMBIA, FEBRUARY 27. 1902. $2.00 A YEAR. The Provincial Departments Are Besttrimt Themselves. ISSUING ADVERTISING MATTER Deaoriptive, Neat, Comprehensive and Well-Compiled Epitomes Concerning the Province. .V. The staffs of the various provincial gqvernment departments must be working over-time at Victoria these days. Among the publications received by the Eaole this week is the public accounts for tbe fiscal year ended June 30th, 1901; tbe thirteenth annual report of the public schools of the province; a neat, comprehensive and well-compiled epitome of retrospective and prospective conditions affecting the province, a splendid thing for circulation ln tbe outside world as advertising matter. This "general review" is labelled Bulletin No. 1, so we may look for a continuance of the good work- thanks to whoever brought the idea into execution. Another descriptive pamphlet, profusely illustrated, sets forth tbe agricultural capabilities of certain portions of B. C, issued by tbe department of agriculture. The following Is dipped from Bulletin No. 1, concerning Lardeau mining in 1801: "The faot that 3,200 tons of ore, of the gross value of nearly half a million dollars, have been shipped out of 'the Lardeou district, notwithstanding the present excessive costs of transportation and treatment of from $30 to ISO a ton, affords some idea of'the potental* lties of this section of the province. During the summer months a branoh railway of the Canadian Pacific, following the course of tbe Lardeau river from Kootenay lake to the foot of Trout lake, was under construction, and when this line is completed, as it is Uoged it will be early in the spring, the development work prosecuted during 1$01 at tbe mines will be rendered effective. During the year all the iblder established properties have been able to increase their production, while new dis* coveries, like the Triune, thanks to the exceptionally high-grade character of the orejwhich carries a value of 8201. per ton), have also'assisted ln swelling the districts output by entering the shipping olass without the usual delay incidental to quartz-mining development. The rlob free-milling geld orje discoveries at Fish Creek, and silver finds about Are miles west of Trent Lake City, have also helped to attract attention to this distriot, In whose mines very considerable investments of capital were made during tbe year." Whatever party seeures the reins,of government the Eagle hopes to spe this step In the right dlreetion oontin* ued. It will prove Invaluable totfie country in general, and is a something wbieh we have been shouting ourselves hoarse for for years. steps-is he may think best in regard to this matter. , . We are sorry that you seem to be anxious to cast insinuations upon both our property and our company. We would like to bave an opportunity to air ourselves before a court of justice in order to set forth to the people the truths and facts upon whioh our company is built. We do not wish to make you any trouble, but we will permit no one unjustly to attack us, We have often heard of the bird that befouls ito own nest and you certainly seem to us to belong to that family. Hoping that you will see the right side of this matter and set yourself dear, we remain, very truly yours, Mountain Lion Mining Co. Per J. N. G. All right gentlemenl Trot out your evidence. If the Eagle has befouled its own nest by contending that there was no sane reason for advancing the price of Mountain Lion stock, as per circular now In our possession, to its par value of II, it is ourselves who bave to live ln it.

Messrs. Clifford and Rogers withdrew before the meeting concluded. The government attempted to come to terras with the opposition whereby they might be able to combine forces, In return for this the government unofficially offered the opposltiou two seats in the cabinet and also tbe speakership, but the offer was declined.���News-Advertiser. Tbe Road Will Open One of the Finest Mining Sections of British Columbia. The Season Just Opening Is Full of Good Tidings. A Proctor Tbat Preaohei. Rev. S. J. Green's pulpit in Ferguson last Sabbath afternoon waa occupied by Rev. Dr. A. Whittington, superintendent of Methodist missions in B. C. The reverend gentleman's discourse was a treat to listen to. It was full of what one would call ideal Christianity, a Christianity whieh appeals alike to christian and sinner. He said that a man could not be a christian merely by profession, bnt that the light of his Christianity must be reflected in his life. He very much disapproved of that class of so-called christians who strive to serve God and Baal.'who while tbey would like to point others to and wiggle thru tbe golden' gate, also kept their weather eye d-pen for the main chance���who' pjaced the I before their God. This, he "felt, was the cause of the Church's weakness to-day. He pointed out that a man was his own best judge; while he might deceive others he could not deceive himself, and if he professed ebrlstianity and at the same time was connected witb shady dealings be must' know that he was a guilty hypocrite. Mr. Whittington also told the church people bow to increase the strength of the church. Tbey must live lives of christian love and charity; to make the church such a home of peace, goodwill and unity that the worldly minded would see and rever tbe beautiful light of the love of Christ reflected from within the church and become anxious to enter into the fullness of such joy, Contractor G. A. Carlson was in Nelson last Friday, and ln speaking to a Miner reporter about business in the Slocan he said there had beon a noticeable change lately for the better and that hopes were high of a more sue* cessful year than last. Each advance of a fraction of a cent in the price of lead, he said, brings comfort and joy to tbe people of the Slocan. In relation to the railway which Is being extended into the Lardeau country by the Canadian Pacific and on whioh he and his associates havo a contraot, he stated that 200 men are now at work and good progress is being made. The train which used to run Into the end o{ Where the track has been laid for some twenty odd miles has been abandoned on account of the snow, and now the trip to whero the principal work is in progress, which is about thirty miles from the lake, is made ln sleighs, The Sound Baals of Good Government. We cannot expect a stable government ; we cannot expect to have political rest and contentment until justice has been done to the people of important sections of the province by giving tbem proportionate representation with those in other districts, Wben that is done and their voice has been beard thru a general election, we may look forward to a period of political stability and material prosperity.��� News-Advertiser. MINING HEN MAKE ENQUIRIES With the Completion of the A. & K. Railway Mining Maohinery Will Be Introduoed. How's This for Ore. A remarkably rich shipment of silver ore was recently received at the smelt* er at Monterey, Mexico. The shipment consisted of sixty tons, for- whioh $800, 000 was paid, or at the rate of 813,500 per ton. Tho ore came from the Pal. millo mine in the Parral district. This mine is owned by Pedro Alvarado, a many times millionaire, wbo was but a couple of years ago a poor peon, Created Hera Powerful than Creators. A oondltion which requires a province, with but six representatives ln a house of over two hundred, to combat, unaided, powerful corporate interests for every concession it receives, is not conducive to rapid development, says tbe Tribune. It is this, condition which threatens mors seriously than anything else tbe successful issue of the present demand for consideration for British Columbia's mining aud smelting Industries. Tbe winter has been a mild one and the men have been able to make nearly full time since the snow began to fall. Up to October it was difficult to secure first-class men, but since that time there bave been more men than could be given employment. The bridges are nearly all finished and there still remains a mile of filling near the lake, and two miles of filling near Tenderfoot creek and some finish, ing touches here and there. The road should be completed in six weeks at the most. Mr. Carlson says the road waB a hard and expensive one'to build. The grubbing and clearing was costly as the timber was heavy, and as there is considerable low ground a great deal of filling had' to be done. There was not much rook work. These difficulties and tbe trouble experienced in getting men capable of doing a good day's work made the carrying out of the contract expensive. Mr. Carlson says the road will open one of the finest mining sections of British Columbia. Considerable ore will be shipped out of there this season, aa development work in a number of. properties has been in progress for a long time, How Do Ve Like It? The Dominion estimates are $6,500, 000 less than last year. 12,000 Is set down for Improving Duncan river, and $10,000 for Arrow lakes, quietly observes tbe Kootenay Mall. What about the upper Columbia river, and that great and glorious Liberal party which tbe Mail continually parades before the long deceived and patient electors of Mr. Galliher's domain? The Machine Keats Rlehardion. Oh yes, the Liberal party likes the Labor candidates���to stay out of their house. They, with the assistance of the old-glory Conservatives, managed to turn R. L. Richardson down in the Lisgar election. Let There Be Jnitlee. A few weeks ago tbe Eagle reoelyed a letter from Rev. T. H. D. Harrhld, pastor of the M. E. church at Seville, Ohio, asking for our endorsation of the. statements made by persons Interested in tbe sale of Mountain Lion Mining Co. stack. And because we did not do this the following letter has been received at this office: Minneapolis, Minn., Feb. 15th, 1902,���Editor LARDEAU EAGLE, Ferguson, B.C.: My Dear Sir; Your postal card of Feb. 7 sent to our Mr. Harrold of Seville, 0��� has been returned by him to us.

The Trout Lake hospital committee, consisting of Messrs. Abrahamson! Griffiths and McPherson, were in town on Monday evening. They handed the secretary of the Miners' Union, A.

Vernon against James Dunsmuir and other directors of the "Colonist" company, elected a few days ago, to prevent them assuming office. The Eagle is iu receipt of no less than two dozen new subscribers,, and a few letters from men in Trout Lake and Ferguson endorsing our action in protecting the future interests In this camp. If modesty doesn't get the best of us we may reproduce * few of them next Issue. Just fancy, if you can, the child-like simplicity of a man changing his smel* ter location plans just because of the utterances of any newspaper. Do you think if a mining man like F. August Heinze Intended to build a smelter in Trout Lake the criticisms of the Topic would alter hia plans? The prohibition question is not a livo issue in tbis camp, stud poker is on the decline, the sun rises and sets as usual, and ore shipments continue much the same as in days gone by. The Silvor Cup people have out nearly 700 tons of the proposed 800-ton output, and it is reported have also struck a large new chute of ore in an unexpected portion of the mine, which if taken out will largely increase tho output. The Nettie L. people are continuing development work and ore is now being rawhided down over the wagon road. Work is being prosecuted on the Black Warrior, Horseshoe, Beatrice, and a few individual properties, but of course there can be very littlo real activity expected for a couple of months yet. Silver and lead values are gradually climbing back to tbe old figure, which, to Lardeaultes, is "a thing of beauty and a joy forever." Tbe manager of a bie Slocan dividend-paying mine, has informed thc Eaole that he intends to acquire some mining interests in this camp as soon as the snow disappears, and letters from enquirers in every direction foretell an unusual season of development, probably as a direct consequence of the nearby completion of tbe A. & K. railway. Tbe EAOLE, too, has good authority for believing that machinery for at least one of our oldest mines has been ordered and will arrive in Trout Lake as soon as trains are operated between Lardo and Gerrard. This marks a new era in tho camp, an 9ra which has long beon patiently awaited. Following the introduction of maohinery and cheaper transportation facilities we hare good reason to look upon the bright side of Lardeau life. There will bo moro labor employed, more development, more sales of properties, more ore shipments, more business, and more changes in tbis camp 'luring tbe coming few months than oven the most optimistic have looked for, if the EAGLE Is any judge of coming events.

C, THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 27, 1002. The government must cease giving away our natural resources. Let it retain and operate them in the interests of the province. The province of British Columbia can never hope to get out of debt, nor develop its natural resources until its political "rulers" are succeeded by an industrial government. The difference between a privately-owned and operate -i "-"-I nnd ;i cnllecMvcIv-owned and operated trust is that the profits go into the government treasury instead of into the pockets of men who are already spoiling with wealth. Kootenay labor unions are showing; their wisdom. They are one and all going into politics. The ballot is lie place, gentlemen, to do the trick. Make the right :se of that one minute of voting liberty accorded you and one single election more will place the balance of ,-iower in your hands. Then use it. A representative of the Vancouver Independent is making a tour thru the lower country. As a result of ':is observations in the Slocan he writes: "The province needs badly a government owned refinery as well as a lead factory. Then where now only a few hundred men would be employed, there would be many thousands, the province would go forward with leaps and bounds, and people who now are loud in their praises of the Klondike and Horse Fly would gradually drop out of sight. It is a crying shame the way this splendid district is handicapped." The same words could be applied to the Lardeau with equal force. An economic system ol collective-ownership and management of the means of production and distribution would do much to lessen the number of upstart' and snobs, who occasionally hob up importantly and endeavor to demons!rale to an ever-bowing public thai they are the only living creatures this far north. A iittle sudden money, and a cranium full of ignorance, does much to annoy ,-iny community burdened hy this particular species of human kind. When our government is so constituted that all profits, interest and rent, $,'oes into the public treasury snohocracy will largely cease to exist, and after a few years of education, and .quality ot opportunities, the folks will probably be as -food as the people. Because the editor of the Eagle happens to be a Socialist, and doesn't care particularly who knows it, he appears to be made a mark by a few newspapers, and men who differ with his convictions. The Eagle grants every man a right to his opinion, but we insist on being accorded the same inalienable privilege. Just because the Eagle said that Joseph Martin's platform "contained enuf Socialism to make it vote-catching and enuf vagueness to leave plenty of loopholes," which is a statement of fact, the Topic trumps up thai old "motive" insinuation. If the Trout Lake Topic, or any body else, can prove one single instance of where the Eagle ever "sold" a line of its space other than that which is devoted tr> commercial advertising, we will make them a present of our business as a going concern and walk out of camp like an U. S. parson. The Eagle has never been "bought," nor can it be bought so long as it remains under the present management. The Eagle is in business for the same reason as any body else���to make enul money to keep the sheriff at arm's length and allow the staff to feed upon something other than sweet remembrances, prunes and snow water. But there is no man living who can truthfully point to a single instance of where we have' made money dishonestly���or for that matter any other old way. The Kagle objects to the Topic throwing out base insinuations as to our "motives," simply because we get dpi and rustle for business while our friend roasts his shins by the fireside. The Eagle asks no man for his sympathy or money; but we do demand a fair deal. Will the Topic kindly cut the cards? The Eagle has no desire whatever to prolong the local discussion concerning the inflated prices of certain mining stocks. We have had our say, and no man, not even one, has stepped forward to say that we uttered an untruth, or asked other than fair questions. Our columns have been open, free of charge, to the reverend promoters in question, but no refutations or explanations have teen made. We have endeavored lo be fair. Our interests are all in this town and camp, and naturally enuf we want to safeguard 'them against a repetition of the earlier history of the' Kootenays. There is not a minister of the gospel in British Columbia who will endorse the methods of those whom we have pointed out. But for having done so the Eagle must suffer a boycott at the hands of a few who seem to think the future of this camp depends on a few of Uncle Sam's parsons. This we are prepared to do, and the chances are the Eagle will still be doing business at the old stand when they are gone and forgotten, iho the ill effects of their having been here may injure this camp until such times as the din and busy whirl of prosperity will have forced it into oblivion���a day not l.-ir distant we feel certain. Thc Lardeau's mineral resources will win out indue time. The completion of the railway, the reductions in fuel, transportation and smelting rates, the gradual raise in the metal market, and the consequent influx of practical mining men and investors indicates the future of this district. The' Lardeau is all right.;, The men who have stayed by it thru thick and thin are made of the right kind of clay, and in six months from now many pf our old-time associates, while blowing rings of smoke irom line Havanas in their cushloned-offices, will, in a reminiscent mood, look tyick to the little incidence which is now given a place in their minds because there is nothing much else to spend the long winter evenings chewing the rag about. A Baltimore clergyman in a recent sermon endorsed the union label in the following eloquent words, says the Canterbury Outcrop: "What can be more sacred, more holy or more deserving of the reverence of men or the angels than the union label, which signifies that human life has been more highly valued in the production of human commodities than mere profit sought for by greed?" "The label is an emblem of justice, of fraternity, of humanity. When you find a label on a garment or a box of cigars, or a loaf ot bread, or a piece of printing, you can be sure that neither was made in a sweat shop, that no little children's fingers were compelled to sew, or sort tobacco in the hours of night intended for childish sleep. When you see this label on any commodity, you can buy it with a clear conscience, knowing that in doing so you are not becoming a partner to nn institution that degrades humanity to private profit. You can sleep soundly, also and not be worried with thoughts of typhus, fever, smallpox, leprosy, which are so olten scattered broadcast from Chinese opium joints, penitentiary convicts' cells and tenement sweat shops, where (he most degraded specimens of humanity put their life's blood into marketable goods, from which the poor unsuspecting public suffers'all manner of foul and loathsome diseases. "The union label is a religious emblem. It is a religious act to buy goods to which this label is attached���an act blessed on earth and honored in heaven, while it is a sin to buy a cigar, a piece of clothing, a pair of shoes, or a loaf of bread, without this label, for then you do not know but what you are building up the business of some heartless tyrant, who is extracting a fortune from the drudgery and degradation of his fellows, at a risk of public health. "God bless the label! And I hope that all of you, as you leave here tonight, will carry indelibly impressed upon your minds the picture of the union label, surrounded by angels, and that you will always know that the favorite banner in heaven presents justice to labor, fresh air and sunshine, and healthful conditions to those who toil, and the truth that human life is of gold." The Eagle has just found in the Calgary Herald, the editor of which is interested in Lardeau mining, an experience of striking similiarity with the combination ol circumstances which it has been our lot to face for ihe past few weeks. And the arguments the Herald outs forward in defense of its position apply with a refreshing degree of truthfulness to the contentions and position of the Eagle.. The Herald says: "A few days ago the Herald had occasion to refer to a form of social perversity * * "In touching upon such delicate gronnd we cast aside fear or favor and endeavored, in the best way known to us to discharge what we considered to be our duty as a public newspaper.' If the Herald wished to blow .1 fanfare for itself we might enlarge at great length upon the number of responsible and prominent citizens who have called at the office and tendered their congratulations upon our outspoken treatment of a flagrant evil, and thc letters couched in a similar strain which have come to us thru the mail. We are not in the puffing business however, and having neither friend to serve nor enemy to chastise we refuse to believe that our utterances require justification, "The principle generally laid down by "men of the world" is that although 0 crying evil may exist, may even be eating the roots out of society, a newspaper which however unworthy it may be tries to discharge its functions, should remain silent; recreant to every precept of decent journalism. �� "A newspaper can do a great deal to prevent the public flaunting ol undesirable relations and thus remove a good deal of the example which keeps pernicious practices alive. "It is neither an attack of dyspepsia nor a desire for spicy paragraphs that gave rise to the article in question. It tvas to our sorrow existing conditions that called it forth, Our readers have but to consult a few representative citizens to see whether it was justified or not. "In saying this wc are pleading no extenuation, we take nothing back and have no apologies to make. We attacked a social evil that required redress and in so doing our position is unimpeachable. The task is not a pleasant one, but that is no reason why we should shrink from it. "The matter is grave and the flippant tone adopted by a correspondent is characteristic of the view taken by a certain section of the people, of a social perversity that feeds on sordidness and has only tragedy for its atonement. , "To minimize and pass by with a tolerant laugh, perhaps, the worst evil with which a community can be cursed, is���to employ the classic precedent suggested by our correspondent's Lajinity���on a par with Nero's Addling while Rope was burning. . "A correspondent says: 'The press can do nothing in the direction of influencing public morality.' We beg to differ most distinctly wilh him. In this particular instance we intend making a jolly good try at it, Sheridan, a gentleman of some repute in his day, was of the opinion that the press could overturn a tyrant king, a hostile house of lords and a corrupt house of commons; and it it could successfully run up against such a combine it is a little strange if it could not do something in the way of making people who were misbehaving ashamed of themselves." .' ��� ��� I.

Knowing that the Eagle is in sympathy with the Socialist movement now doing such great work in the United States, io fact all over the world, and to a lesser degree also in Canada, I Venture ii few remarks to help along, perhaps in a small way, the good cause. Uo give a cheap fuei inducement to iron troubles. Result: change of editor. The Times also has internal troubles in the press room, Result unknown. Several new unions have organized here recently. Among them tbe plumbers and barbers. And tbe Trades and Labor counell meetings are well attended. The Socialist vote at the Rlley-Bar- nard contest was 100 per cent, larger than the returns stated in the papers. They conceded us one vote. There were two. The last meeting of the Socialist league in the old hall was on Tuesday evening last. Several of our members are out of town, so only an Informal meeting was held, and not much effort will be expended on holding meetings for a few weeks. The Dunsmuir government has not yet announced a-polioy of opening up coal mines and operating them so as The sorrows of to-day makes tbe happiness of to-morrow. An argument brought against us is that ambition will be.killed if our future life were assured, so far as not being left to starve to death Is concerned. Now any one, (and there are many)' who makes a statement like this is grossly ignorant of the fundamental principles of Socialism, or else wilfully distorts what their own common sense must tell them are the facts. It is tantamount to saying that you bave to be hungry to become ambitious, and If Few men can resist the devil when thc profits are considerable. For all misfortunes thoro are two remedies���time and silence. There are more rooster-pecked wives in tbe world than hen-pecked husbands. There are a number of bureaus of labor that bave not labored very much for those who labored! 13. Hume & Co. Wholesale and Retail General Merchants The largest importers in North Kootenay.

Childhood is composed of dreams and bowel trouble, manhood of love and heart trouble, old age of gout and blad der trouble. This would be a better world if people would take tbeir own advice instead of giving it all to others,���Fort Steele Prospector. Collective.Ownership Will Change It All. Laborers use tools they do not own; capitalists own tools they do not use. t Laborers produce wealth tbey do not own; capitalists own wealth they have hot produced. Laborers toll and make capitalists rich; capitalists remain idle and keep laborers poor, this is the case we are certainly de;,. Labor is exploited; capitalists are ex- generating. What is ambition? True ambition is a longing to excel���not financially as some people seem to think ���but morally, socially, physically, and in i, general way for the betterment of mankind. It is the fear of to-morrow that makes tbe first aim of life consist of trying to get the bettor of our fellow creatures by fair means or foul in the struggle of life, and the habit grows to such an extent that a man sinks to a depth at which hia sole ambition is to hoard up wealth at some one's expense. It is generally believed that those who bavn.accumulated large fortunes in a life time were men above the average intelligence. Now for the saic** of argument, suppose we admit this tribute to this class of men. Would it not have been a grander, and nobler incentive had these intellectual "giants" used these great intellects in improving mankind generally, rather than in the selfish individual one-man manner wblch tbe world seems to admire and bold up as an examnle to our youth. If this is the ambition that we should admire, then heaven- help our future One of Socialism's principal aims Is to teach us to think less of ourselves directly and more of each other, so that we may never think tbat the earth was meant only for our Individual selves, Under existing conditions there are two arguments that can be given as shewing that talents or incentives are not cultivated to their fullest extent. First, poverty often prevents a talent being developed or an incentive being pursued; and secondly, when men make a change from abject poverty to luxurious comforts through a talent it is Inclined to Induce them to "lay on their oars" so tn speak aud resign themselves to ease and com fort, thus stopping the further development, which under a more equitable economic system might have been attained. In fact being too rich Is as injurious to true ambition as being too poor. Of course there are exceptions to three arguments, but on the whole they will be found correct. Then again, under Sooialism all would receive credit for what they actually produced in whatever capacity they happened to be occupied, thus creating an incentive to excel which would' eventually bring the whole people to a greater state of efficiency in the general standard of tbe whole world. These may 'not be very strongly put arguments, but tbey are only a drop in the bucket to the many arguments which can be produced In favor of the coming great social system, Lardeau Socialist. Tbe man who believes that all men are liars will be vastly more happy than he who believes that most men are honest and tell tbe truth.���Exchange. ploiters. Laborers are numerous; capitalists are few. Laborers form a political party for whioh capitalists will not vote; capital- l.ts form a political party for whiob laborers always vote. Laborers are controlled by governments that are always controlled by capitalists. Laborers are those who earn an honest living by the use of either mind or muscle; capitalists are idlers who prey upon those who toll by collecting rents, interest and profits. To the producers belong tbe profits, and not "to the victors belong tbe spoils." That is a proposition that it- easily understood by anyone of ordinary Intelligence. // ever there was a time in the history of the town of Ferguson Socialists Active The Ferguson .Vocislist league met, as usual on Mondny evening, and "the arowth of Social! nm" us their topic for discussion was most interesting. Next Monday evening it mixed program will be provided, and the publio are especially invited, One more new member enlisted at last meeting. Tf you are not a Socialist it is probably because you don't understand what its objects and aims are.. Come along and "let us reason together." TheFerguson league Is now thirty strong and growing svery week. * A letter from H. J. Lipsettof Slocan, says the Socialist League was given a good lift a week ago Sunday by Rev, R. Whittington, superintendent of Methodist missions for B. C. The Slocan Local is growing. No man can know a moral truth until he feels it. He must think and know before he can realize bis full obligation,���Rev. I. W. Joyce, Methodist Bishop, Pittsburg, Pa, While gold mining is the only business on earth in whioh there is no competition, the statement does not apply to the sale of mining shares in which there is at times considerable competition. Ferguson to bay lots that time is now "You talk about natural resources!" scornfully exclaimed the Minnesota man. "Why, last year the catch of lobsters In ourstate was over 7,000,000!'' "And your state is full of 'em yet!" fiercely ejaculated tbe cheerful idiot. Sidelights From the Capital. < Victoria, B. C, Feb. 22.���The people here turned out ln crowds to witness tbe opening of parliament on Thursday���that is those of us whp had time to spare from tbe struggle for oread. And the government promised u* a redistribution measure, and some of the members will be tumbling over each other introducing bills for labor, He would be a-rash prophet who would predict results ln tbe house now, ' Victoria and Nanaimo Socialists endeavored to secure Prof. Mills for a lecture next week, but could not as dates were already arranged. We may secure him on his return trip. ,, The Colonist is having internal Independent political action Is the watchword, tbe ballot the means by which tbe wrongs of labor can be righted to usher in the cooperative commonwealth���tbe Socializing of all tbe means of production and distribution. "We may choose what kind of Socialism we shall have, but the nature of things leaves us no way of choosing whether or not we shall have Socialism. It is manifestly the next stage of historic development. It Is cooing because It is as inevitable as life."���Prof. Herron. Tbe 20th century belongs tn Socialism. Labor saving machinery, with all tbe other means of production and distribution, have ln them tbe power end patency of the: greatest blessing to mankind, but at present we notice that the benefits accrue to the owner of the machine. . In terms of religion Socialism has for its basts, "The Brotherhood of Man" it seeks thru association and equality, to realize fraternity; it would substitute tbe sacred rights of Humanityifor tbe so-called sacred rights of property; consign capital and dividends to oblivion, and make sons of Cod out of slaves of greed. Socialism is a simple yet comprehensive means for the improvement of the conditions and character of men. In terms of economics Socialism Is the public ownership of all natural resources and public utilities, and the common operation of all industries for the general good. R is opposed to the private ownership Of the means of production and distribution, whieh is indirect ownership of men; and to our wage system which robs men of a large part of the product of their labor. The Standard Oil Company bas declared a dividend of 20 per cent, forthe first quarter of 1902. It will amount to 120,000,000, of which John D. Rockefeller will get 40 per cent,, or {3,000,* 000. A tidy little sum to put away for three months labor. How would you like to be the oil man? He best loves his country who desire* for her tbe most precious of all possessions, justice, honor, equity and charity, who will not countenance oppression in any form, nor give his influence in favor of national pride, or vengeance, or persecution, or outrage with In or without her borders. Coder the present system, "prosperity to the country" does not mean prosperity to the workingmen. These workers are in the condition of the children whose father gave tbem cent to go to bed without their supper, and then oharged tbem a cent for their breakfast in the morning. See the point? The syndicate, headed by J. P. Mor gan &Co., which did tbe underwriting of the United States Steel Corporation, made a net profit of $50,500,000, according to the Evening Post's Interpretation of the report made last Wednesday by the company. Undor Socialism these profits would now be iu the government treasury. The railway is being pushed to completion and soon the C. P. R. will accept through freight for Trout Lake. Trains are now being operated on the new road as far as the steel is laid. Many mining properties surrounding Ferguson are rapidly reaching the shipping stage, while the shippers speak for themselves. Not only is Ferguson the commercial, banking, smelting and pay roll center, but here is where the most prominent Lardeau mining men have their interests and headquarters. The best lot locations are being picked up by shrew d investors. There is Big Money hi uson "The universality of education will make tbe competitive principle in any department of human affairs an insult to enlightened Intelligence. Socialism is the next great political creed to occupy our attention, and tlie central problem in this oreed is the question of tbe distribution of wealth."���Prof. Henry Dsvis, Yale University. Under a competitive system, where private ownership is tbe central figure, two classes with interests diametrically opposed bave sprung Into existence. The one class robbed of all tbe means of life except his labor, is forced to sell that at a price dictated by the one wbo employes him, while {the other class, by a system of exploitation and fraud���legalized by his hirelings the bench and the press���rests secure until the voice of labor demands that the competitive system be supplanted by the co-operative commonwealth.

Miss Annie Murray, who has been visiting her aunt, Mrs. R. P. Pettipiece, here for the past five months, left for her home in Fletcher, Idaho, on Saturday last. Thos. Taylor's announcement that Richard McBride would be the Conservative leader of the opposition was merely prematurely announced. It bas turned out as intended. Andrew Ferguson, one of the owners of the Triune mine, bas joined the benedicts. As a result the usual Ferguson custom of festivities and congratulations have been coming fast and furious. Andrew F. Rosenberger, who is largely interested in the Fish Creek camp, has returned to Nelson, with strong financial backing- This may alter things considerably in the free- gold camp. The Western Mining World, published at Butte, Montana, for a number of years, has been removed to Chicago, Illinois, where many Improvements in its already excellent service will be made. Poor Fernie! The Crow's Nest Coal company has bluntly told the Fernie merchants that, in spite of all former pledges and understandings, they will establish a company store at the mine. What about Kellie's Truck Act? Rev. Charles W. McCrossan, a stook promoter of considerable renown, ot Minneapolis, Minn., arrived in the pay roll centre on Saturday last. No startling developments as yet. In fact the Eagle has been overlooked like s white chip. Jno. J. Young of Calgary, arrived ln town yesterday. Mr. Young is managing dirfotor of the Calgary Herald, holds large ranching interests ln Alberta, and is a leading figure ln the Nettle L. and Double Eagle companies in this camp. '"Well! that's queer. I stopped my paper last week, and even Rev. McCrossan, with brotherly sympathy, haa declared a boycott on the Eaqle, yet I'll be jiggered if the pesky rag didn't appear aB usual. Really I don't understand it at all."
