Every Indication of a  ,   The Lardeau  Mines
December 6th is the  Day Your
Presence   is   Requested   at the
Polling Booth.���A Fitting   Time
to Pay Tribute to a Candidate
From Your Own Ranks.
Men-working in the mines round and
about this distriot will be pleased to
note that the date for our election has
been fixed by the  returning  officer.
Thursday, December 6th, is the day to
be at the polling booth.   Hit the trail
for Forguson in time to cast your vote
for Chris. Foley, the people's candidate  and  the  only candidato with a
platform in your interests.   Don't 6ay
"oh well he will not need my vote."
Over confidence defeats many a good
cause.   It may be your vote that will
elect Foley.   Don't tako any chances,
but come down the hill and plunk for
Foley on Dec. 6th.   Read his address,
weigh it carefully, and urge your fellow workmen to -como along with you
to help along the good cause.   Don't
scab on election day.   Do your duty
and use your franchise in the interests
of progressive government���and your
own.   Bury any petty grievances you
t  may have and let the noble principles
we espouse  predominate.   If you  do
not vote and work for your own interests how can you expect to bo reckoned
with by the "great" party men.   Thc
Conservative party   has  faded  away
like a beautiful dream, to bo succeeded
by a now-born "party, which will bring
about what the peopleaneed) a co-operative government.   It  is now  up  to
you.   Play your hand.
Railway next Spring
are   Ore   Producers.
After all there is nothing like stick-1
ing everlastingly at it. For weeks and
months the people of this district have
been working diligently to secure the
attention of the C. P. R, officials for a
few minutes. Several Letters were
written to President Shaughnessy, he
was waited upon in Nelson and lately
three different electrical tramway
companies have been negotiating for
the construction of a railway between
here and deepwater landing on the
arm, and now it is evident that our
united efforts and appeals are to be
re warded���very soon. On Wednesday
last, just as the last copy of the Eagle
was being printed, a survey party of
34 with P.M. Young in charge, bove in
sight on Victoria avenue, causing a
great commotion in town as to what on
earth was up. They pitched their
tents near the Windsor hotel, purchased supplies from local merchants,
and the following morning bright and
early found them all at work. Of
course the real objec/t of their mission
is  unknown,   but  it  looks as though
This is the Beason between summer |
and winter. There is too much snow
to prospect and too little to commence
rawhiding. But it is a remarkable
fact that nearly every man in the district is at work. With the increased
forces being put on in the Pish ereok
district, the Old Gold camp in full
swing, the Sunset and Surprise being
developed, the Nottie L. constantly
adding more men to its gang, the Free
Coinage being worked under lease, the
Cup employing from twelve to twenty,
tho St. Elmo starting up a winter
camp, the Towser in full swing and
many other minor properties being
worked by individual owners the prospects are much more encouraging than
6ver boforo. There has been more
actual development, more rich and
important finds and strikes during the
past season than in any previous live
years; more men employed than heretofore; and last if not least, the railway seems nearer construction point
than ever before. The foundation ban
been laid this season for next, and rail-
still no sign of the other wall. Raw-
hiding is being somewhat delayed but
the working force is being gradually
increased and everything is in readiness for the snow. What a difference
it would mean if the railway could run
them in a spur. Instead of dozens of
men employed it would mean hundreds;

The Silver Oup.
The winze from tho lower tunnel at
the Silvor Cup is now down about 60
feet and the ore is increasing still in
values. This gives the Cup a total
depth of over 400 feet. The prospects for tho Cup were never brighter
and the increased development work
constantly discloses more ore bodies.
Great credit indeed is due to Supt. D.
G. McNeil for tim energetic maner in
which he "is opening up and proving
this property to bo one of tbe riehest
and best ore producers in the Lardeau
district. It is to bo hoped that the
management will see their way clear
to ship GOO or TOO tons this winter.
SURE OF FOLEY'S ELECTION.
Tho certainty of Chris. Foley's olec
tion is daily becoming greater, says
the Rossland Miner, and both of the
old   parties   are  in   a panic over the
accessions which are beingmado to the
ranks of his supporters.   Each, however, is cherishing the delusion that
its candidate may go in between thu
other two.   No greater mistake could
be made.   Tho Labor candidate is sure
of election, and is not troubling himself in the slightest particular over the
result.   He is tho only one of tho candidates who is meeting the people of
the  constituency  and   telling    them
what he purposes doing when he goes
to  Ottawa.     The  campaigns of   Mr.
Galliher and Mr. MacNeil are practically at an end, and thoy aro simply
awaiting election day to see what tho
people are going to do for them���or
with them.    Roth Conservatives and
Liberals are committing a grave error
politically;   without a chance to win,
they are keeping their candidates in
tho field and courting the hostility of
the labor element when by withdrawing their nominees they would ensure
tho election of a membor who would bo
satisfactory to all parties and to the
government, and   who  would  be an
i^cal representative   of  this  mining
district.

proposed route, the programme given j
in last issue will likely be fulfilled.
From the time the road leaves the foot
of Trout lako it will gradually ascend
tho mountains on tho east side of the
lake, come through the Lardeau Duncan pass and easily decend to Ferguson. From here, tho placo where the
mines arc, the survey already mado
will suffice. Whatever may be the
outcome it matte-s little, so long
as the railway reaches the mines; but
it is at least assuring to seo men busy
cross-sectioning, relocating and work-
idg steadily on tho proposed route.
There can scarcely be any doubt
about the C. P. R.'s intention to com-
monco construction as soon as possible
next spring. Indeed tho Eagle fails
to see how tho "wait" can be prolonged for another year. Tho very fact
that no less than three companies are
willing to build an electrical tramway
for that" "20 miles of railway wanted,"
should he sufficient evidence to
President Shaughnessy to go ahead
and if not, the recent visit hero from
ore buyer Moore, Percy Chapman,
president of the wholesale association,
Nelson, should have a stimulating
effect. When Nelson wholesalers and
Lardeau ore producers work in unity
something must come of it. We have
tho ore and a great opening: for creating a splendid market. Henco the
happy combination.
At last tho Eaolk fools safe in assuring its many readers that next year
will seo this district tapped by a railway. The rest of th ��� story is short.
This district will the i domonstrate to
the world the many claims that havo
boen mado for it.
have, but their time of prosperity has
come, and so it will Ik1 with this district. If ever there was a silver lining
in tho dark clouds of "waiting" this
fall shows it up in all its beauty.
Another twelvo mouths will work wonders in this district and tho EAGLE
cares not how soon the change come.*?.

Growing Richer and Richer.
J. N.   Black,   or  better  known as
"Dad,"-was up at the Nettie L. on Saturday last and had many good things
to say of that mine upon   his   return.
''Dad," as may be expected, has visited
tbe  property  probably  oftener than
any other man   in   the  camp,   and is
therefore more in touch with  the the
development work  going on than tbe
manager himself.   As he   approached
thc ore house he found somo  200 tons
of sacked ore piled up under  a makeshift roof awaiting the   rawhide.     In
tlie ore house two men are busy sorting  the   remnants  of  ore left in the
workings  after   the    sacking    there.
Entering the main   tunnel  and going
into tbe  south-east drift aud crosscut
therefrom he found the afternoon shift
busy    sacking   [ore    in   thc  face of
the   crosscut      and     also    in     the
winze, now sunk some 2;j   feet  on ore,
from the crosscut.   Tn this winze there
is 18 inches  of  absolutely clean oro.
while the face of thc crosscut is still in
solid ore.    The last 10   feet driven,
approaching tho footwall at this point,
exposed a 4 ft. seam of clean solid oro.

BUT ONE CHOICE
The Conscrvatc party is a dead issue.
The only hope for progressive electors
is to vote the Independent Labor ticket
and thereby urge upon the Liberals
the necessity of introducing moro
legislation beneficial to the masses.
Canada must bo protected from the
hordes of Chinamen and little brown
men ; Canada must place compulsory
arbitration of labor disputes upon the
statute books; Canada must own her
railways, etc.; Canada mtjst enact a
legal working day of oight hours,
abolish the contract system and
educate children, rather than maintain a system that drives them to the
factory at tender years. Those arc the
paramount issues. The rest of the
programme can be handled by any
body of competent business men.
The government officials are our
business managers and as shareholders
we have a right to demand tho abovo
bo mado issues, meaning as they do
justice, equality and a financial gain
to tlio wholo people, instead of a
private corporation, What is good
for a private concern would be good
still for all the people, tho shareholders.
In Chris. Foley tho electors of Yale-
Cariboo-Kootenay havo a representative who advocates tho above in its
entirety. Mr. Foley may bo rather
more Liberal than Conservative, but
knowing him to be a man of principle,
wo have tho assurance that when those
iho people's) interests aro at stake,
that neither party cau apply tho whip
and twist him into line. This, gentlemen, is what we want, a man who we
aro dead certain is all right.
While thero may bo many good
qualities in Mr. Gallaher, tho Liberal
candidate, as a straight "party" repro-
sontitave. the labor vote has no claim
on him. Ho belongs to the classes
now and to tho classes ho will belong
hereafter. Turn down the old party
candidates.- The Liberals, by the
gracious aid of Tarte, Bouriassa and
Quebec, arc too strong already, and as
tho Conservate party is a dead issue
it behooves us to inagurate a new
and progressive party���ono whioh
will really represent live issues���
as against prejudice and political jobbery. Vote for Chris. Foley and progression.
SCREAMLETS.
Remember! Election day Thursday
December Oth.
The people must l-oou own tiie trusts
will own the people.
There is no excuse this time for an
elector to choose the lesser cvii. Vote
for Foley and progression.

Sir Charles Tupper may have been
offered a seat in every provinco iu
Canada but it is doubtful if ho could

The Consorvato party has no platform. Tho Liberals stole it. Tho
Conservatives sliould now steal the
Labor platform to pull even.

In Great Britain, where they are

by seeking the good of all.
If the Conservatives aro as much the

this riding let them tako Mr. MaoNolll
out of the light ami c 1 ict Chris. Foley as
igainst Mr. Galliher.
When Glasgow, Leeds and Plymouth
adopted public ownership of tho streot
railways, they bettered the service,
reduced faros, shortened hours of labor
and raised the wages of the men.
The Rossland Miner, after sizing up
tho misdeeds and neglect of both tlie
old parties, has joined the now party
ranks. Chris. Foley's election is beyond doubt if the people do their duty.
WIXG LETS.
Ths eloctbt's nf Winnipeg were so
satisfied with Puttee's record i" pat'li-
ment that he was given over 1000 of a
majority this timo. If Foley is elected on Dec. Gtb,-four years hqhco the
people hore will do the .same thing.
Where thore is so much room for
each of the old parties to accuse each
other of corruption, there must be considerable on both, sides. Vote for the
people's candidate- Chris. Foley, and
avoid both evils.
What in the world would the electors
hero elect a Conservative for?
though they are In opposition, when
any bonus Ing is going out to private
corporations, where thore is one
Liberal against his party ou the voto
there arc half a do::on Conservatives
voting with tho Liberals who do want
to give away the people's heritage.
Vote for Chris. Foley on Dec. 0, and
help strengthen the new people's party.
Several complaints of the telephone
wire obstructing the public highway
in and around Ferguson havo been
lodged at this olllco. Two persons
bave been injned on Walker avenue
and no amount of difficulty is caused
to wood haulers. Surely this negligence is unnecessary.

Every city in this or any other country that municipalizes its work of improvement, substitute;; day labor for

of labor, not only making money, but
of infinitely moro importance, making

As lias always boen the ease in mining history, with tho advent of a
railway, thore will bo towns and towns:
but the towns where the mines are
can bo banked upon. To get in on the
ground floor propositions both in
real estate and mining properties, to
get first choice for the least money,
investors should be hore now.
Once more the EAGLE has a grievance. It scarcely requires to be mentioned to know what it is. The Lardeau mail service is always more or
less out of whack; but the complaints
from outside EAQLB subscribers who
do not receive their paper regularly is
becoming painful. The issue is
posted liere regularly and on time and
it is certainly no fault of the EAGLE,S
if they go cstray en route. The poetal
clerks or distributing post offices noed
jacking up. Tho mail system needs
fixing and the sooner it is remedied the
hotter.
It Is apparent that the Provincial
government fail to acknowledge that
there are people in this part of the
provinco who are as mueh Interested
in "official" announcements as other
places. Every other eamp In British
Columbia has newspapers announcing
special notices to the public, but the
electors of North Kootenay must grope
around und find out these things as
best thoy can.

FOLEY'S ADDRESS
Worthy of Careful Consideration
By All Classes.
IT'S WHAT TBbThOPLB WANT
And the Old Parties Are Unequal
to the Occasion.
To the Eleotorsof Yale��Cariboo:
. In re'inesUnB your support to my candidacy
for the Dominion House of Commons, it is due
id you that I give public expression to my
views on tin1 several planks nf tin1 platform of
tho Independent Labor Puny :
1. Compulsory education hits become a
recognised necessity in most countries and as
such has my hearty endorsement.
%   Legal work day, 8 hours.
.Modern invention has so enormously increased the productive power of man that his wants
can bo supplied with a fraction of the time aud
effort heretofore necessary for that purpose.
Labor as well as capital should benefit by these
changed conditions. The 8-hour law is a stop
in that direction and I shall hec.rtily endorse
any legislation looking to that end.
3. Government inspection of industries.
Under modern economic conditions the management of industrial concerns figure on results, not the methods by which they are to be
obtained. An oversupplied labor market enables them to impose on employes any conditions thoy may deem necessary. Protest as a
rule means dismissal from service and probable want to their little ones. In throwing tho
strong arm of the law about these children of
1I, \ misfortune you are simply following the teach-
/f ings of the meek and lowly Jesus, who said
suffer the little ones to come unto me, for of
such Is the kingdom of heaven.
4. Abolition of contract system.
The abuses that have grown up under the
contract system as outlined in the first issue
of the Dominion Labor Gazette should convince
even the hide-bound partisan of the necessity
of the enactment of such a law.
B,   Public ownership of franchises.
Our experience In the eontrol of the postal
department, public schools, public highway
municipal lighting plants and Waterworks is
sufficient ground for the extension of the same
system to railroads, telegraph, telephone, and
express business. The experience of people in
New Zealand, Australia, Germany and elsewhere has demonstrated that those functions
can be] performed by the government with a
very great advantage to tho people and I most
heartily endorse legislation looking lo that
ond.
5. Prohibition of Asiatic emigration and the
educational test.
Tho presence here in large numbers of this
non-nssimilatlng race robs Canadian labor of
its birthright. Every Mongol landing upon
ou^ shores lessons rather than increases our
population. The white laborer whieh he replaces would as a rule marry and settle among
us, increasing tho population by at least three.
This means to the merchant less mouths to
feed, and loss backs to clothe, to tlie doctor
loss demands for his services, to tho transportation companies less traffic, to tlie dentist less
teeth to fill, to the mechanic less buildings to
erect, to tho real estate dealer less demand for
property including less force for the same, to
tlie farmer less sale for produce, to the newspaper man less papers to bo sold, (o the
preacher smaller congregations, and to t
bootblack fewer shoes to shine. Their presence
works Injury lo all branches of tbo economic
system. I opposo thoir coming hero on the
same grounds I would oppose thu taking of
more passengers into nn open bunt already
loaded to tho sinking lino in mid-Pacific.
Every Chinaman occupying a position in dom.
cstic services interferes with the natural laws
as applying to the industrial body, robbing our
women of employment naturally belonging to
thom to the extent that for every Chinaman so ;
employed some one's sister or daughter is
driven to prostitution, evolving a ra*e prob-
loin destined to breed seas of blood and that
will some day mantle the Canadian cheek
with ablush for his country's shame.
7. Abolition of child labor.
An economic system that drives the child
from tho cradle to the factory to compete with
its own father is certainly tho legitimate ohild
of an industrial system having greed as its
basic principle. Legislation along l'nos opposed to this will receive my hearty support.
8. Aboliiion of tho?250 deposit.
Under conditions where all are amenable to
tho law and assume tho responsibility of defending the country's flag and institutions all
Bhould bo entitled alike to aspire to tho highest position in the gift of thoir countrymen
without being taxed for thc privilege of m doing.   1 would repeal that law.
it.  Compulsory arbitration.
Compulsory arbitration us applied in Now
Zealand looms upon the horizon of progress
not as a dream, hut as a practical method of
reconciling thc conflicting Interests of labor
and capital,and is destinoil, I think, in tlio
pear future, If applied, to prevent those periodical industrial wars and lend a securilyto all
brunches of business such as is Impossible*
under existing conditions and nssilOh receives
my hearty approval,
10. All election days to be made public holidays.
[ would also favor the passage of a law making the exorcise of thofranchiso compulsory
for the following reasons I First���Money cau
and does purchase the votes of the drunkard,
tho sewer hog and criminal, the vote of lhe
Intelligent but indifferent citizen would counter balance this evil, and I believe it is as much
the duty of every citizen to pnll his voto as it
Is to pay his taxes. In maklngthfs a compulsory duty you are simply compelling him io do
that by the ballot which he Is alroady compelled to do by the bullet-defend tho
Institutions of his country.
12   Abolition of tho Senate.
I look upon tho upper house as a useless and
extremely annoying political luxury, as a
Stumbling block to progressive legislation, as a
home for political Imbeciles, who seem to havo
resolved themselves into a political inquisition, who pounce upon every progressive
measure that passes tlie lower house, brands It
as heresy and proceed to pronounce the sen*
teuce of political damnation upon all accordingly, and if any little effort I can make can
assist in exterminating that aristocracy In
politics I can assure you lt will be exercised
with I he greatest of pleasure.
Trusting that my ideas on tho several subjects will meet your views, and that I will
receive your support, I remain,
