Fkroiison, B. G. April 10.���"Your correspondent bas been asked to send out the facts iu regard to tbe buspitai movement, so that subscribers and tin public generally in Revelstoko and other points will have a clear understanding of tbe situation. Some peoplo appear to have a wrong impressior about tho matter. In January a public meeting of Forguson miners and citl- zons decided thut a hospital inlhucuinp was an urgent necessity and amon*- other steps they sent a petition to tbe government, for a grant Tbere being some talk about a hospital nt Troul Luke, the Ferguson people offered to dlsjuss iho matter with a view to the two towns co-operating. This proposal, however, for some reason unknown, was not entertained by Trout Luke, who shortly afterwards sent deputations tu Itevcl t <ki\ Cumboi'iieund ever tu Ferguson to solicit subscript!*)! b for a hospital at Tr.nit Lake. Many poo pie, e pecluily at Kevelstoke. subscribed liberally under tho impression thai it was a joint affair and that il was be Ing b eked by Ferguson and the Lar deau generally. A public meeting wat afterward- nold hero which decided after full and mature discussions to act under the Minors' Union, as it wu6 felt tbat a hospital either here or at thr lake could not be efficiently maintained without their support, Then the Miners' Union mot and decided, having got tbe support of lhe whole town, tl go ahead and make arrnngoments for building n hospital at Ferguson, Thc mom be s of tho union headed the sun scription list with $.'i(lO and alroady thf handsome stun of $1,2110 bus been se cure , witb considerable moretocorae The lumber is now nearly all ready and building will eommeneo us soon as tin snow is sufficiently off the ground. Volunteer labor will contribute largely to the erection of the hospital, Tbi most important feature of a hospital is, not the building of it, but miiiiituininp it after it is built. This is adequately pruvided for. Tho Minors' Union comprises about lOU members and ihe dollar a month which they now pay for medical attendance will be paid to th- liospiial. This, together with tho monthly medical fees, paid by miners whe are not members of the union, will provide a maintenance fund of about. (1,200s year. As this is likely to hi supplemented by a good gram, thr* question of maintenance Is practically smiled. 'I'ho people of Ferguson rocog nizethatu hospital is nf no pecuniar) benefit lo a town and they would hat, heon glad to co-operate with Trou' i;i7,500.

It is generally conceded that the labor press has cut no snhor dlnato figure in tbo great fight for liberty and justice In this transitional epoch of ours.

On firs! page will be found lhe re* port ol the proceeding of the Kamloops labor convention. We would advise all working men to take the platform adopted there and study it carefully. It is nnt a radical platform by any means, hut is of such a nature lhat anyone who bos the best interests of his counrty ai heart should certainly be able to endorse its leading plank,**. The Socialists were in a decided majority 'n the convention, but verv sensibly refrained from pushing ideal Socialism into the platform lo be adopted by the convention. The obj.:ct ol There seems to be a widespread impression lhat R. P. Pettipiece is still connected with this paper. This is incorrect excepting such connet- t on as a man has when he is owner ol a property, but has rented it for a stated term. We have leased the Eagle lor one year with an option to purchase it at any stated lime during the life ot said lease. For the benefit of those who may still he skeptical we will say that it is out linn intention to buy the business inside ol three months if we -can raise the necessary dust which we see nothing to hinder us from doing, but So tar as Mr. Pettipiece coming hack lo run the Kagle we don't expect . to ever see him working in Ferguson again, as we have been given to understand on good author- S nee assuming the editorship oil ffe 'he Lugle we have b.en surprised to find out lo \, hat an extent knock-, nig prevails in lhe camp. We, our verdant innocence imagined Ibut every resident ol Ihe distriit bad only lhe best interests of lhe country nt bean. Instead of lhat we find there are old grey haired sinners in camp who have been deliberately knocking legitimate nining companies. The letters are sent back io us lor our opinion, so we know, Next week ive intend to deal wilh these knockers at some length and hope to be able to lead lh��m to see the wrong of their ways. the delegates seemed lo be to get a platform on which the more radical I ty that Mr. Pettipiece has already and Ihe conservative element of the working classes could meet oil common ground. We are of the opinion lhat I bey succeeded admirably. There are plenty of reform mens- ures in it io keep lhe legislature busy lor lhe next ten \ears in bring- ing litem into force. The interests of lhe enpit list cla��s are not undid*, jeopardized by the phnks adopted, It is really no more radical than tbe platforms on which Taylor and McCrea appealed lo lhe electors Insi election, but the difference consisis in the recall measure which we hope will have lhe effect ot making ihosi who are elected on this platlorm ui f_ij;t make an honest effort lo earn* our w'i'ies inio effect. There w s one feaii re of the convention uliiih was very noticeable and thai With, united efforts of the delegai > representing the Miners' Unions to have the n ining laws strictly unfair 1'ered with. They felt that ther, had already be en loo much tinkei- ing u ith the mining laws hy politicians anxious to catch ihe miner-' vote and all that the delegates asked was that ths min'ng laws be st.rictly let alone an I t mt ihe inJustfy be allowed to-row and piosp.r. It is our opinio, that tie mine owners have less lo fear from legislators- chosen by lhe miners and who wo Id likely he practical miners themselves than item the professional politicians who oueii meddle with our laws with :i vi: '.. paitdcriri��; to the more radical workers and not really understanding the tar-reaching influence of their laws often credit, unnecessary friction between employers and employees. Another notable feature of the convention wnr the desire for ind.*. pendent action. The Province, ��� Progressive party is a uew party niii* is not affiliMUid wilh either the Lil erals or Ibe Conservatives. Th. execuiive officers are men of tcnowi integrity and arc working men, hu ,nen ���' hone ability will compare ver; favorably v.'ii.i the ability of .th.',. iaine number of men chosen Iron bought an interest in a paper un the coast. Now ive hope this candid siatement of our position will satisfy lhe most incredulous.
