John Loughran, on rising to spealc, stated that owing to the limited time (20 -minutes to half an hour) al&onral htm It would be Impossible to'do more than touch upon the fringe of any Important subject, therefore he hoped they would eicuseWm if he dispensed with unnecessary preliminaries or lengthy references to the benefits which trades unionism tins ooufeiwd upon tho people of this and all other oommerclAi oountrles where employers had had sufficient business acumen to recognise Ks leaders and adopt -the principle of eolleotlve tauvaitilnf. The crudest industrial conflicts the . world bos ever been cursed. Vith were caused through t«lf<ouceite<t cads who call themselves "captains of industry." but whose environment and early twining* taught them Uf look upon their wage slaves as machines specially invented by an aH-wtse cre ed in, especially the nation that has planted the Statue of Liberty in tlie' Atlantic,' ocean in order to Impress u^on strangers and iminigr-ants about to tenter the country the ■idea' that slavery or .injustice would not be toi- erated.In any form, beneath the star spangled, or the Stars "and Stripes of 'America, The speaker then went on tojpoint out the objectlvelesson to be learned from Colorado .if the ^miners and other., workers are ,to hold their own in future against tlie 'en-qrbach- ments of tiMsts, and combines headed by the R<Klefel!ers snd o-ther.mjllion- aires wiho^e millions have bee,n ac-' cumulated through skinning,'sweating and bleeding the wage w"or«$rs ot the oountry. 'We must-not only amalgamate with other associations* whose alms and objects are; similar to-our owl*, 'but we must federate,with other unions wh^re amalgamation is' not practicable," land- when we have consolidate all the available industrial forces In this and other countries.into one solid phlanx, we will then be ln a position- to create a condition that will-hasten the social revolution and will-,put,-the.

That sectional strikers have ■proved to be failures In the past all wtll agree; and that strikes in the future, if they are to-succeed, must be fewer but more elaborate most think- ing men will' admit;. ibut whether «he generad strike -win'end in success or ■foilure, much, will depend,, u-pon the preparedness or otherwise of the .

What, asketT-r the speaker, is tho cause of this terrible death rate? Gas and coal dust explosions, falls of roof and coal, are' among the many causes. I presume the Creek waters still rush down to the Elk; and scientists says that -there' is over a mile of water in the air, but how much do the employers use'to wet the airways? The em- .ployers bave no conscience; they have a gizzard, and nothing else. The risks; men take are great. Tliey are, so '-familiar with the dangers around them'that such risks are taken in order to make a wage. A satisfactory wage scale; would, throw the responsibility upon the miner himself. It would then make it as safe as ranching. jQwo.' ithe various companies1 pay interest and secure a maximum of safety to-ihelr employees? I say they can. The owners had no difficulty in the discovering of the,coal measures for they commenced operations on; the surface.

Dum .dum bullets are debarred from modern warfare, nevertheless they are used to shoot down tlie miners who are op strike.. A bullet .that was extracted from the limb Of a little child .waa found to be a poisoned one. A bullet of this description makes tt impossible for anyone to survive or escape the effects of blood poisoning. This Is being done to the workers who are trying to gain a little within their slavery. The men who are employed to do. this work are amongsf the most, unscrupulous. Formerly tbey were clad in rags, their whole outfit did not amount to ten dollars.

In tbo match b*-!w#>oii Frank and DENVER, Colo., May 4.—(Special) —After a week of fighting, in which at least twenty-one funocent women and children and six men are known to have been murdered and cremated by the hired gunmen of the coal operators wearing the uniform of the national guard of Colorado, tihe armed forces of striking coal miners and militiamen are holding their positions tonight under an armed truce while prominent men of the state are meeting day and night at the state house 'trying to relieve the terrible situation. Never before in tbe history of the world has there heen a slaughter or innocents whioh aroused such horror as that at Lud-iow, Colorado. There were 406 women and children in the tent colony. Of these 200 have arrived at Trinidad, twenty-one are known lo 'be dead and the others are missing. Probably the most terrible and sickening phase of this inhuman slaughter of the wives and children of the striking coal miners wais the burning bythe gunmen militiamen of twenty to thirty bodies In a huge funeral pyre. Por -three days these murderous assassins 'prevented red cross nurses from going to the scene of the massacre. ' It is believed that many of 'the wonw.il an-d babes died from suffocation who could have been saved had '«ilie nviK'tia allowed them relief. One doctor who went from Aguilar to the scene of tho wholesale murder to ad*- *m*inJster relief was driven back by the bullets of these same gunmen militiamen. In one ditch alone were found the distorted bodies of eleven small children and two women showing t^at they had died suffering great agony. From every section of the country have comeioffers of anmed assistance and checks wltih which to buy arms and food that the striking coaJ miners may continue their,fight against, tlie coal operators. Union of ficlals-hope that the thirst of Sunday school teacher J&hn D. Rockefeller Jr.. for the blood of Innocent weaken aDd children has heen satisfied and that these guns! Rockefeller, as during the prist iwo weeks. Since Monday owo weeks a so wheu 150 assassins of the operators hi' ml- IKiaaucn's uniform attacked the Lud- low tent colony with machine gun-H and explosive bullets slaughtering and cremating '£\ women and children who havo been found and probably 100 more who are missing, the struggle has continued without cessation. Proof has been established by eye witnesses before coroners' Juries that -Xiculs Tikas, leader of the Greeks, was beaten to death with a revolver, then kicked In the face and finally «hot to cover up the heinous crime; slain women ami children were not only thrown into/a huge funeral pyre and bunied, but living mothers and babes were burned to doath according "to the testimony of 'Witnesses whtf havo" usctuped from the horrible disaster at I.ud'low. ' And with all of this John D. Rocke: feller calmly announces that he will never conifer with hie mt-n, thut ho will lose overy cent in his war by machine guns and torches on dffanseless women and children, and that his Sun-Jay School teaching conscience is .clear. The position lie takes should arouse Uie laboring people of the country to the peril that confronts (hem. v Prominent society women of Denver have organized relief committees to receive conti lbutions of money and clothing. Relief Is coming into the headquarters of the United Mine Workers from all over the country. Since hundreds have been made honw. less and lost everything they had, these contributions, ao matter how small, have .been greatly aprreciated. Strike leaders are hopitfg that the federal troops in the strike, districts will restore peace. Tliey iuue always been maintained that there would be "Tumw. na wee-awr: mcy nave announced, however, that they will fight until overy ono lias gone the way of the slaughtered ,27 bef-ora they will surrender their constitutional rights to the coal operators and tbe corporation owned staite militia. Indication's are that the long-henaid- ed industrial revolution has started. Men in every walk of- life are organizing themselves Into volunteer companies, armin« themselves., and awaiting the caM to arms to prevent the further slaughter of their brothers and sisters. The typographical union, one of the most conservative in the country, bas contributed |500 "to buy arms and am. munition." , Saturday 1.000 women stormed Hip state capitol at 10 o'clock In the morning and demanded that Governor Elins >I. Ammons call for federal troops. He refused but the women remained at thoir post un-lil 8 o'clock in the evening and forced lilm to Issue the call. Today in a pouring rain storm 10,. 000 iiersons crowded the state house lawn In a monster protest meeting againvt the murder ot helplegs women and children. They demanded tba* the governor resign at onco, that the coal operators' state mllltla be withdrawn, and tliat 'Major Hamrock and Lieutenant Linderfelt be arrested for tbe murdt-r of the Innocents at Ludlow.

Their wages have therefore risen, just because their money price has not changed. The money price of .labor, the nominal amount of wages, does not -there- .fore fall together with the real wages, that is, with 'the" amount of commodities that may" practically be obtained in exchange for the wages. Therefore if we speak "of the rise and fall of wages ihe money-1 .price of labor or Uie nominal wxge is not the only thing which we must-keep in view. But neither the nominal wages, that is, *tthe amount of money for which the laborer sells 'himself to tlie employer, nor yet the real wages, that is, the amount of convmoditle-s which he can buy for this money, exhaust tlie relations which are comprehended in tiie term wages. For the .meaning of tihe word ls chiefly determined by its relation to ■(.he gain or profit of the employer- it is ;t proportionate and relative expression, The rc-ai wage expresses the price of .labor in relation to the price of other commodities; the relative wage, on tlie contrary, expresses tlie iprioe of direct labor in relation to tliat of stored-up labor, the relative value of wage-labor and capital, the proportion- ate value of capital and laborer. Real wages may remain the same, or they may rise, and yet the relative wages may none the les® liave fallen. Lrt us assume, for example, that tihe price of all the means of subsistence has fallen by two-thirds, while a day's wages have only fallen one-third, as, for instance, from three shillings to two. Although the laborer bas a larger amount of commodities at his dis- ■posal for bis two shiHing.s.than he bad before for three, yet hi& wages are nevertheless diminished In proportion to the capitalist's gain. The capitalist's profit—the -manufacturer's, for instance—'has been augmented by a shilling, since "the smaller sum of exchange value which he pays to the la- •borer, the laborer has to produce a (larger sum of exchange, value than he dhl before. The value of capital ia raised in proportion to the vailue of labor. The division of social wealth between capital and labor has become more disproportionate. The capitalist commands a larger amount of labor with the same amount of capital. The power of the capitalist class over the (laboring class is increased; -the soaial position of the laborer has dotorlorat- ed, and is depresSa another degree below that ot the capitalist What then is the general law which determines the rise ond fall of wages and profit in their reciprocal reflation? — They stand In inverse proportion to one another. Capital's exchange value, profit, rises in the same proportion in which .the exchange value of labor, wages, sinks; and conversely. The rise in 'profit is exactly measured by the fall In wages, and the fall ln iproflt by the rise in wage?. The objection may perhaps be made that ihe capitalist may have gained a profit by adventurous exchange of his (Products with other capitalists, or by a rise lu the demand for his goods, whether in consequence of the open ine of new markets, or of a greater demand In tiie old markets; that the profit of the capitalist may thus increase by mians of over-reaching another capitalist, Independently of the rise and fall of wages and the exchange value of labor; or that dio profk of the capitalist may also rise through an improvement In the implements of labor, a new application of natural forces, and so on. Hut it must nevertheless be admitted that the roatik remains the same, .although it i» brought about In' a dlf- fonmt way, The capitalist has ac- tjuirt-d a larger amount of exclMMfio value with the iwune amount of labor, w-Hheut having had to pay a higher l»riee for the labor on that account; that is to Miy, a lower price has been liaid for tlm labor lu proportion to the net profit. wli Mi It vUAAh »o tht» cap! tallst. Besides we must remember that In splt-e of th* fluctuations In the price of commodities, th* avwniie price of oach eomaiodIty—-tlie proportion In Which lt exchanges for otlnnr eommoA. Ities—is determined by Its con? td pro- diiretlon. Thi» ovem,noMn.ir and trt.M<«i* that go on within the capitalist class thwfow necessarily cancel oue an- otht-r Improvement■» !n machinery aim! new applications of natural forces to the service of production enable them to turn oui In a given time with the wtnw amount of labor and capital a larger quantity of products, but hy no means a larger quantity of ex change value. If by the application of the spinn-tog-jenny L can turn out twice as muoli thread in as hour as I could before its invention; for instance, a hundred pounds instead of fifty,, that is, because the cost of production has been halved, or because at the -same cost I can turn out double the amount of products. Finally in wnatsoerer 'proportion the capi-tal'lst classes—the bourgeoisie— whether of one oountry or of the mar- ke' af the w-hole worid—share among themselves the net, profits,of production, the total amount of those net profits always consists merely of the amount by which, -taking all In all, direct labor has been increased' by means of stored up labor. The sum total increases, therefore, in the proportion la which iabor augments capital; 'that is, in the proportion in which profit arises as compared with wages. Thus we see that even it we confine ourselves to the relation between capital -and wage-labor, the interests of capital are in direct antagonism to the interests of wage-labor. A rapid increase of capital is equal 'to a -rapid Increase of .profits. Profits can only make a rapid Increase, if the exoliange value of labor—the relative wage—makes an equally rapid decline. The relative wage may decline, although the actual wage rises along with the nominal waige, or money ■price of laibor; if only it does not rise in the sarnie proportion as profit. Por instasice, if when trcide is good, wages rise five per ceiK, and .profits on the other hand thirty per cent, then the proportional or relative wage has not increased but declined. Thus if 'the receipts of the laborer increase with 'tihe rapid advance of capital, yet at the same time 'there is a widening of thfe social gulf which separates the laborer from the capitalist, nnd also an increase in the power of capital over labor and in .the dependence of labor upon capital. The 'meaning of the statement that the 'Laborer has an Interest ln the rapid increase of capital is merely ithis: tibo-faster the laborer increases his master's dominion, the richer will ■be the crumbs that he will get from his table; and the greater the ti umber the laborers that can be employed and called into existence, the greater wiH be ithe number of slaves of whioh capital .will >be the owner. We have seen that even the most fortunate" event for the working glass, the speediest possible increase of capital, however much it may improve the •material condition of the (laborer, cannot abolish the opposition between his interests and those of the 'bourgeois or capitalist class. Profit and wages remain Just as much as ever in Inverse proportion. When capital ia increasing fast, means of a more complete suMivisigca of labor, or 'by the more extended use •and cominual improvement of maohln- ory. The 'more numerous 'She departments Into which labor is divided', and the more gigantic the seal© in .which machinery is introduced, in ao much tine greater 'proportion does the cost of .production decline, and so munch the more fmiiitfiuMs^-tihe labor. Thus arises a manifold rivalry,among ca-pd-fcaliste with itbe object of increasing the subdivision of laibor and 'machinery, and keeping up the utanost,■possible progressive raifce of exploitation. Now, if by -meanis of a greater subdivision of laibor, 'by the employment and impravomenit ot new machines, or by -the more skilful and profitable use of the forces of-nature, a capitalist has discovered the means ot 'producing a larger amount of oommodiitios than hiis competitors with the same amount of labor, whether 4-t be st»red-up labor or ddredt—if he can, for instance, spin a complete yard of cotton in tho time that *hl&oo*m<petitor8 take ito spin half a yard—how will this captbaiMst proceed to aot? 'He miighit go oa selling 'half a yard at its fonmer market price, but tliat would not have the effect of driving his opponents out of the field and increasing his own sale. But the need of Increasing his sale has increased in 'the same proportion as his production. Tlie mor© effective and amoro ex-. ■pensive means of production whioh he 'lias called into existence enable -Hunt of course, to sell his wares cheaper, but they also compel him -to sell imore wares and to secure a much larger market tor them. Our capitalist will 'therefore proceed bo sell bds half yard of cotton cheaper than his competitors. ■ ' The -capitalist will not, however, sell his complete yard so cheaply as his competitors se-ll the half, although its emtire production does not cost Mm more -than the production of half costs the others. For in this caste be would gain nothing, but would only get (back the cost of its production. The contingent increase in his receipts iwould result from his baring set in motion a •larger capital, but not from ta/vtag made his capital more profitable than that of <the others. Besides, the gains the end he ls aiming at lt he prices Ms goode a slight percentage -Kiwer (thorn Ms competitors. He drives thom off the field, and 'wrests from them, at any rate, a .portion of their aale, if only he undersells them. And Sultrily, ■we must remember that the price current always stands either above or bellow, the cost of production*, according as the sale ot a commodity is transacted at a favorable,or unfavorable period of business. Ajcoon&ng as the market price of a yard of dotto. is abovo or below *ta fawner coot of pro- tal will rise much Caster. The actual position of the laborer has Improved, but it ds cut the expense of his socks poeition. The soolal gulf wWcfo separates him from the capitalist has widened. Finally, the meaning ot fortunate conditions for wage-labor, and of tbe quickest possible increase of productive capital, is merely this. The Coster the working classes enlarge and extend the hostile power that dominates over thom 'the better will be tho condi- tion under which they will -he allowed to tobor -for the further increase of bourgeois dominion and for the widen extension of the power of capital, and thus contentedly to forge for themselves the golden chains by which the bourgeois drags them In its train. But are the Increase of productive capital and ithe rise of wages so India- sotubly connected as the bourgeois economists assert t We can hardly ibe. Ileve thot the fatter capital beoomes the more will its slave be pampered, The bourgeois Is too much enlighten- ed. and keeps Its accounts much too carefully, to care for that privilege of the feudal nobility,, the ostentation of splendor In its retinue. The very con. d'.tions of bourgeois existence compel it to keep careful accounts, W© must therefore Inquire mare closely Into the effect which tiie incroaso of productive capital Ima upon wages, With the general Increase of the prodHctive'capital of a,bourgeois so- cleiy a manifold accumulation of labor force takt;8 place. The (capitalists in- rri'iinf* fn number and In power. The Increase In the number of capitalists increase* the competition between capitalists. Their increased power gives them the means of leading into the industrial battlefield mightier armies of laborers furnished with gl- entitle implements ot war. Th«* nnti *-i".il';\Itp,': can OTib auii.ctd In driving the other off the field and takltijj ftosseaalon of his capital by w.:?;i.;g his waivn at a i heap** mt«. In order «o sell mor-e cheaply without ruining himself he must produce mors cheaply; that Is, be must helght-ra aa much as possible the protltictlvwwws of labor. But Ute most effelctlvo way of making labor more productive Is by 'bor and replacing'the old macitnes by- new ones, .wivicii.ithougli more expensive, pi^wa rafogio. cheaply, instead -of V&tttag ;itill -competition has rendered them obsolete.". ';•;"• c ,. Let us now look at this feverish agitation as & a«feats -the market of .the •wihole iWortdi; and wer'tihall understand how tihe increase,' accumulation, and 'Oocenltration :of oapi-taH bring iln their train an ' uninterrupted and extreme subdivision of lafeer,.always advancing With glganlhic strides otprogresis^anid 9' looabinual employment of neiw ma- <fliifieiry,'*ogetfcher with improvement of the old.- . But how d-d 'these "circumstances, to Reparable as they are from tibe dn-' crease of productive capital, affedfc tho deteraitoaition of the amount of wages? The greater division of labor enables on© fabarer to do Uie work of £lv©, ■tenv twenty; if-'therefore mul*tipM©8 itihe campaWtion.' among laborers, five, ten, or twenty times. The Jaborers do not only compete when one sells himself cheaper than another, they also compete when one does the work ot five, ten, or. twenty; and the.division ot laibor* wMch capital introduces aud •oohitiuairy increases, compete #.e •laborer to enter into .this kind of competition with ono another, -, Further, in tho same proportion, in which, tihe -dlvislonot laibor is Increased the labor Itself is etmpMed. Th© »p©-" cial skdll of *the laborer becomes iwonthless. It is changed into a monotonous and uniform power production, which can give play neither to bodily nor initellectual elasticity. Ita tabor becomes, accessible to evoryibody. Compeltltorsp therefore, throng initio it from all sides; and (besides, we *mus|t remember that tho more single and, easily learnt the labor is, and the 'less it costs a man to make hlmsolf (mooter of 'St, eo much the low©r must its wages sink, since itohoy are determined, dike th© price of every other commodity*, by 'its cost of production. Therefore, exactly as tha labor be- com-es -more satisfactory and unpteas- amt, in that very proportion camipati- iflon Increases and wages deollne. Th© laborer does Ms best to 'maintain;the itate of wages by performing laor© laibor, (whether by working for a greaiter ■numiber of hours, or by working harder in th© same time. 'Thus driven by necessity, h© himself increases **he evil of the subdivision of labor. < So the result is this: itho anore he labors th© lees reward he .receives for it; and that for this simple reason—that he competes against his fellow workmen, and ithus compels th-em to .compete against Mm, and tto offer their labor on as .wretched' conditions as lie does; and Chat he thus, In the laat (result, ■oompetbea against himself as a anom- bei; of th© working class.

"" mtum-a, «f «Ual<liu> Mian «f A»Ow.*««. which ithe capitalist, who toad employ ed the new and profitable means of production, exceeds to Its sale the 'actual coat of its production, to him. But our capitalist does not find his privilege very lasting; - Other rival capitalists introduce with more or less rapidity, tlie some machines and the same subdivision of labor; and this introduction ibeoames general, until tbe price of the yard, of doth in reduced, not only below its oW. but below Its new, cost of production. Thus the capitalists find themselves relatively in the same position' in wBich they stood before tbe' introduction of the new means ot production, and if they are by these mean* enabled to offer twice the product for ithe same price, they now find themselves compelled to offer the doubled amount tor less than the old price. Prom tiie standpoint of (these new means of production the old game begins smew. There is greater subdivision of labor, more machinery, and more rapid pro- «ress in the exploitation of both. Whereupon competition 'brings ahout the aame reaction against this reeu*. Thus we seo how the -manner and mcams of production are conUnualiy means of enHotlng than of discharging its todutrtrial reenrtte. Tho senor- ais, or capitalists, vie with one another as to who «so dispense with the great est number of his eoWlere.- The economists repeatedly assure us that the 'laborers wbo ore rendered superfluous hy the machines find new branches of employment. Thoy have not the hardihood direct- ly >to assent that the laborers who are discharged enter upon the new'branches of labor. The facts cry out too tend against such a lie as tbls. They only declare that for other divtslono of the laboring class, as, for instance, for (his rising generation of laborers who .wetoe Just ready <to enter upon the deftindt branch of industry, now <meoai of employment twill open out. Of course that is a great satisfaction for tbo dis. missed laborers. The worshipful owp- (ballets will not find their-fresh supply of exploitable flesh and blood run -short, and will let the dead bury their dead. Thia Is Indeed a consolation with which the bourgeois awn-tort themselves rather than the lutoorers. If the <whole class of wago laborers were annihilated by tho machines, how fthocklns -that .would he for capital i^^^^i^l!

Tliat Is the law which «ontin«oHy drives bourgeois proiluctlon out of its old track, and compels capital to Intensify the productive powers of labor for the very reason that it has already intensified them—the law that early «eveaties'reported: "As far as our. knowledge of that particular district Is concerned, there is the great- est. jpossibUlti-ee.of the largest coal fielde on the American continent" .

The owners not only received tbdo on a gift, but ten thousand dollars as well. If the mines at Ooal Creek therefore did not pay from the grass roots, then someone came in between the ©ow and the milking time. Th© reason for the sfrike at Nuslmio l» because the Dunsmuir Co. have been Juggling in finance. They have capitalized thoir mines to tbe extent of $15,000,000. .We know It ts tut water ed stock; nevertheless, interest tnnst be paid on tbat stipulated amount, watered or not ■ "Mine safety lies not on your bocks, for you cannot ibear It It lies on the hack of tbs government of B. C." So says iMoBride. He (McBride) has got tho fiction to bis head, that he has got to look after -the safoty of minesj Why? The owners have got a darned sight better men to look after their property. Sir Dick McBride was a •party responsible for the over-capital- Icatlon of the Dunsmuir mine, which has caused this strike at Nanaimo, and which nude it necessary for the company to liave a strike.

J,|R*eo6go4zin'g that, owing- to the wid%; varying conditions in the dtf- fereot cbMierles' in the provinces-even ■in. the; sarnie field and often in the same amine—a hard and fast rule on systematic timbering would render such rule often impracticable, making the same itwaild, and even often tending to bring about the very conditions that we.are aiming to prevent; there* -fore, before formulating amy such rule, the ■milnlster.Mn keeping with his for- 'mer policy, would like to avail him- eeM of your assistance and cooperation In this very important matter, and iwe beg to submit the following for your -consideration: "(1) The manager shall submit to the Minister of Mines a systematic method of timbering for the mine, division or subdivision of the mine. This shall indicate the average height of the seam*, the kind of timber used, the rolttlmumdiameter of such timber, the maximum distance that shall exist between the props, timoers and other roof supports, aad -between such props, ttenibeirs and other roof supports and the Slides and face of the working place or face, "Should the minister approve of such 'Systematic Method of Timbering'- a notice or notices of such method sliaill be kept posted in a legible manner at the entrance to such mine, di- vis-iori or subdivision of the same. "(2) It shall be the duty of the workman In charge of a working place which shall include such-working; place and for a d-Istance of fifteen feet back from the face to keep the props, timbers or ottoer roof supports as designated' in the 'Notice of Systematic ^Imiberlng"- .governing the mine, division or B-uibdivisdon of such time in which he Is employed. . /'Nothing in such notice shall preclude or prevent the use of onore •props, timbers or other roof supports, or the erection of the same, should, the workman or any of the officials deem sucb necessary for safety." "(3) In addition to the requirements of Rule 2, as to timbering, every workman -in charge of a place shall set suWicieint sprags or other; supports for the uniJfcnnined coal, provided that before, commieuclng to mine he shall set one sprag or other support andr not less then one for every six feet of su^undermln-lng. to ho larg-e the following ' Circular Letter was sent to all mine managers in the province: * y _-. ' "Sir,—For a! number of years past the percentage of total accidents from falls (>t root and coal at thejworking faces has ran-getf from 35 to 60 per cent of the total accidents <tye to the industry. I regret to say tbat during the,first five mouths of the present year there have been twelve total ac- eddeflts from theee causes, or three more than during the 'whole ot last year. "Owing to the large Increase 1n thin class of accidents, the honorable -the Minister of .Mines deems It necessary to avail himself of the powers given him in 8ection 101 of the Coal 'Mines "(4) Temporary props Bhall only be -withdrawn- iby use of a dog and chain, or other type of timber-drawing machine, unless permanent timber has been set before such -withdrawal, a-nd no permanent iprop, timber, or other roof supports shall be finally wltn- drawa wlthout«the use of such ^miber- drawing device. .""Trusting to,'liave your hearty cooperation in this,- we await your sug- gpstlonsl" I am pleased to say that a large majority of the managers In the province heartily endorsed the suggestion and all, with the exception of two or thrt-e who have since complied, wore In a position to start ths present year ■under a method of systematic timbering. Great Britain An official blue book just published affords an interesting Insight info the conditions of olbtailniing in the Irish capital. According to the report of sanitary authorities the housing ooa- dfltdons are so deplorable that at least 14,000 miust at once be built in -order to meet the most meagre requirement* Over 20,000 families have oro- ly one room whilst 1500 families-live in single cellars which have been converged into living room*. 33.9 pel" cent of all ,the dwellings in Dublin have only one room. In the case of 12000 auch dwellings an average of 6.1 'pei^ ■sons live to the one room. There are 98 persons living in one house,, in anmrher 74, etc. The sanitary oondi- ttons are everywhere In an indescribable condition, whilst the general conditions are most degrading. The -report further emphasizes the fact tfhat of the owners of these houses 14 are town counsellors. As regards *he wages, 5,600 fathers of faiinlMes receive not more than 15s. 2d. per week, 900 15s. to 20s. per week.

The .British Labor Party introduced a motion into Parliament last year for the establishing of a Labor Ministry. The discussion ln connection with this motion led to the Government's a^>- .poinjtilng a commission to The Special Rule as finally adopted Is uniform throughout the province; the method of Umbering under the rule is drawn, up to suit the looal -conditions of each mine: Special Rule, Systematic Timbering "(a) The manager of the mine shall cause to be posted at a conspicuous 'place near the mouth of the ■mine, a notice stating the minimum size of the diifferent types of Umber to be used in such mine, and the maximum distance ibetween the timbers and between the timbers and the toce and sides of the working pla«e. "(b) In the event of two or more methods of timbering being used ia one mine, then In addition to the notice posted at the mouth of the mine, a notice shall be posted at the entrance to each section or district, stating the method of timbering to be used in such section or district of such mine. "(c) It shall be the duty of the miner In charge of a working place— which shall Includ-e such working ■place and a distance of fifteen feet •back from the face—to keep the props, thnbws or other roof supports erected as designated in the 'Notice ot Systematic Timbering" governing the mine, 'division ofsubdlvision of such mine in which he is employed. "(d) Nothing in this section shall prevent a miner from setting supports, or an official from requiring the miner to set supports in his workWg place at more frequent intervals than those specified dn the notice aforesaid, rwhere necessary for safety. "(e) Every miner'in charge of a working place shall set sufficient sprags or other supports for the undermined coal, provided that before commencing to mine he shall set one sprag or other support, and not less than one for every,six feet of such undermining. "(f) Temporary props shall only 'be ■withdrawn by use of a dbg and chain or other type of timber-drawing ma- -chine, unless permanent timber has . been set before such withdrawal, and j -sent-ed in these dlcte. no permanent prop, timber or other roof support shall be finally wlth- draJwn without the use of such timber- drawing device." The Dangers of Indigestion r*m Tou simply can't be well—mat is,. really well—if your digestion is bad, for your very food may poison you , unless it is digested. That is why in- > digestion (imperfect digestion) is the root cause ot" nearly ail our minor .' ailments and ot many serious ones too. , Food should nourish your body, and . make.g'"j'i the daily waste which oevw stops, but it can't do that unless your. • stomach diesis it, No wonder dyspeji- -. tic men and women are always weak./ and ailing—they're starved and often ' poisoned too. Starved, mind you, not - /or lack of food, but because they ,- don't digest the food they eat. Poison- ' ed, not;, by eating bad food, but because tn*eA stomachs are weak *nd their bowels inactive, and so the food they eat ferments and gives off poisonous gases which are carried by the blood stream to every part of the body.

Telephone 1-fo. 48 Post Office Box No, 380 REPORT OF THE ROYAL COMMISSION ON LABOR Whik* there may be many who disagree, personally we are compelled to admit that so far as KK- COMMEXDATIONS are concerned, tlie Royal Commission appointed by the McBride Government last yoar to enquire into the condition of labor in H. C. (nnd which lias just issued its report) lias done its duty fairly well. Let the reader thoroughly understand: We say so far as RECOMMKXDA- TIOXS arc concerned, realizingSiily too well that all these commissions and reports mean just so much extra work for the Government Printing Department, and a few fat jobs for friends, and nothing more individuals in the enviable position of selecting any "particular master." So far' as the selection ia concerned, this is a privilege which the employer enjoys, and not the worker. The' commissioners need have no scruples about a workman being forced to work for a particular master. The commissioners have not made many •discoveries, but tliey have discovered, or fancy they have, the cause of the present dissatisfaction which, exists among the working class. Their' contention that ''the dissatisfaction with existing conditions.'.arises not from a hopeless despair, but from a deferraina-*- tion to improve social conditions, and from a genu- ine' spirit of human brotherhood,'" is in part correct, but were the commissioners to make the journey through the Crow's Nest Pass at this particular period, they might discover that the condition of the worker both in British Columbia aind Alberta was unsatisfactory in almost every respect, and the dissatisfaction was caused not so much through a desire to improve social conditions, as a desire to secure thc barest means of sustenance. The commissioners appear to have swallowed one of the great Jim Hill's quibs, namely, that discontent is Ihe result not of the high cost of living, but of the cost of high living. ^ Unemployment and employment agencies are also considered, and the report states "the evidence we have received justifies' the need of^ efficient public bureau to prevent employment.agencies being conducted solely for profit. The usual palliatives, that municipal employment bureaus and national labor bureau be established is one of their suggestions. Fortnightly payday and negotiable time checks are among some of the suggestions: Xext week wc will publish "certain portions of the report, but would advise all who are interested to j write \Y. II.

Jt will prove very adopt tlie recommendations suggested. Still, in fairness to the commission, which was limited in its scope and barred from enquiring in a district where real trouble existed, we will admit they l^ave done more than we expected. Their report might form the basis, with certain additions, of a very progressive labor platform, and the workers of B. C. would do well to read this report very carefully. To review the report thoroughly would occupy "too much space, but there are several portions with which we shall deal in this and subsequent issues, such portions having particular reference to our own industry. Commenting upon International Unions and the objections raised by some, the commission makes the following comment:— •'Whilst some employers oppose international unions on the grounds that the authority exercised "by the union officials resident,in the United States ■Hiiaj'-pTOuuce-coTiditTOTrrlnjwrOT dustrial interests, yet we find no definite evidence of any,such effect; and, on the other hand, it must be said that many large corporations employ managers and superintendents and are controlled by directors who arc themselves aliens," The last paragraph is rather an unkind rub for those self-satisfied patriotic, and in 'many cases effective campaign literature, and should be interesting reading to all who appreciate the necessity of political action. WHY RAILROAD COMPANIES PREFER WHITE LABOR We were amused the other day when reading ;i statement credited to Sir Thomas Shaughnessy. i'resident of the C. P. R.. to the effect that "The V. P. R. preferred white labor, but if it was hot obtainable (AT THE PRICE) the company could hardly be expected to stand back with folded arms." . X We introduced, the words between parenthesis. It is usual to blame the printer for such omissions, but in this ease we "fear that he is not" to blame. Only thc other week our Lethbridge correspondent, irHrisTroteB-rT-rite-d^^ C. P. R. had a gang of about sixty men raising tiie track, and were paying them at the rate of 17% cents per hour or $1.75 for ten .hours' work." The correspondent adds: "They are all^ Russians brought in by the company." There is. of course, a possibility that the C. P. lt. had lei this work to A .By-Jaw tp jaise the. sum of Five thousand dollars-1$5,000.00) for the purpose "&f extending the electric light |jsystem now, in operation in the City of .Fernie. •WHEREAS 'tor the purpose aforesaid it will toe necessary to 'borrow the sum of Five thousand- dollars ($5,- 000.00) and to,,Issue" debentures of the City of Fernlo fpr the purpose of raising the said sum; AND AVHBRBAS the amount of the whole rat^-blo jaind and hraprovsmeiits or real property of the said Oity of PernJe, ace ordlng to the last revised assessment roll, is Two million, one hundred " and ninety-four thousand, foijr hundred and seven dollars $2,194,- 407.00); AND WHEREAS It will 'be requisite to rate© annually iby rate the sum of Six hundred and ninety-one dollars aad forty-five cents ($691.45) for pay- tag the said debt and interest; ■AND WHEREAS this By-law shall mot ibe altered or repealed except with the -consent of the Lieutenant-Govern- or-ln-Oouncil; NOW THEREFORE, the Municipal Council of the Corporation of the City of -Fornle, tn Council assembled, enacts as follows:— 1. It shall and may be lawful tor the .Mayor of the Corporation of the Oity of Fernie to borrow upon the t-redlt of the said Corporation by way of debentures hereinafter mentioned, from any (person, persons,, body or bodies corporate, who may be willing to advance the same as a loan, a sum not exceeding the -whole sum of Five thousand dollars ($5,000.00), and to cause all such sums so raised or^ received to Ibe paid Into the hands' of the Treasurer of the.said Corporation for the purpose and with the object hereinbefore recited. . 2.

Wejlo not they will do for a CANADIAN ORGANIZATION. Under the ln-ading "Discrimination against Union Employees," the commissioners make the following admission:— '• Though some organizers, led astray by the pursuit of visionary aims, may go to the extreme and would destroy much that is good in our industrial system, it i-nnnot be doubted that the promotion of Uie organization of lnbor is doing much tn benefit the condition of Ihe laboring class an a whole." The recommendations of thc commission on this point are of such n nature that no comment is invfi--is.ilry, but they might have mentioned "what ■is good in our industrial system." ('pon tin' ipiestinn of compulsory arbitral ion. the comiiiisviion is compelled to admit that this method of li'jrislation has been tried and found wanting, nnd state: "The genera) concensus of opinion \h that it has been tx failure. Tt has not prevented Mi'iki'o, nnd seem* only to liave succeeded in cr«>. atiiitf untnffoiiittm between the employer nnd employee. When the State intervene* lo force workmen to work for n particular master, tin well na to I'tiiiipfl the niMnter to employ particular men. it in m'niv it* jiftu-cv in u uuuirwr which is not in afford- once wilh liberty nnd justice."

WHh the labor market ovoratoek-.wl, there are very f«nr PgACgASLI tlTTLIMINT IN SIOMT know, but this wc do know,.and that the C. P. It always employs white labor wheri the white lafibr- er fan be obtained al the price, No one wants to pay the same for'a light team that he would for a heavy team, and the railway company will not employ the weak degenerate Oriental or Chinese when sturdy "Russiaus or Swedes mn be persuaded to work for 17V.» «ents per hour. Some may argue that there is no comparison between the horse and the mnn. There iB not. If a man I my a a heavy team, bin feed bill will be more thnn with a light team.

The -ball had not been moving eight minutes ibefore the inside left of Hlllcrest received a severe injury to his knee, which necessitated his Immediate removal to -the hospital.

Hosamer, however, were -to some extent the victims of misfortune, as they lost McQueen, .who bad his ankle badly Injured after about ten minutes' play. This was a big enough handicap, but Michel had another, stroke of good fortune in the shape of a strong wind, which rose about half time and assisted them to press Hosmer's weakened forces almost continuously through the second half, Hosmer opened-the game strongly and did all the attacking up to the time of 'McQueen's departure. Their forwards, however, proved to be weak, Pow being the only one who seemed to know where the goal lay and. how to get there. Playing against ten men, ■Michel came'TOore and more into the picture, their fonwards playing nice combination. They -were, however, prevented from scoring by good back play and -daring goalkeeping.
