AV. of A., lias been seriously concerned, especially in view of the fact that the coal miners, represent tbe large majority of workers in Lhe localities under our jurisdiction, we would respectfully state that we have from time to time received promises from the Provincial Governments that they would cope with the situation, but nothing practical has been accom* plished. We are firmly of the opinion that your Government should take such steps that will at least meet the urgency of the situation. —A. J. CARTER, Secretary. COKATO SCHOOL—AN APPEAL .jirs.

The action was dismissed, but it is considerable consolation for the workingman to know that the point of the case in which the average worker is concerned was decided ln the plaintiffs favor. The Crow's Xest Pass Coal Co. were found by His Lordship to have been guilty of negligence ln not providing a safe place for the workman to work iu while operating the dinkey or locomotive for hauling coal. AH coal companies hereafter found guilty of using locomotives which are not standard types, or in which the motorman is not protected by a sufficient cab or by flariges projecting from the rear of the buffer or buffer-beam, to prevent cars from interlocking with the rear of the locomotive, will .be liable for any accident which occurs in consequence thereof. The reason why the action was lost was because the court found the plaintiff guilty of contributory negligence and of having accepted the risk of bis employment for Increased pay. Mr. A. .Macdonald aiid A. .Macnell appeared as counsel for plaintiff, and Messrs. Herchmer and Martin for the defendant company. On Sunday evening tbe Italian residents, headed" by the City Band, paraded around the town playing martial airs in celebration of the information received that Italy had at last decided to enter into the fray on the side of the Allies. Speeches were delivered by local citizens froia the steps of the- Cily Hall, and the air was repeatedly punctuated by loud cheering and "Vivas!"

He tben followed the custom upon occasions of this kind by presenting, the learned judge witb a pair of white gloves. His Lordship replied, as follows: "Mr. Sheriff and gentlemen, I am pleased to accept this as a token that there are no criminal cases to be tried at this Assizes.

The ''appointed day" i.s defined in the Act as "the first Tuesday in the eighth month after the month in which the Act is passed." Hence, as the Act was passed in September, it should have come into operation on the fir.st Tuesday in .'May. ''.The Irish'Parliament" so runs the act. "shall be summoned to meet not later than four months after the said Tuesday. According lo the action of those in Colorndo wlio are prosecut- i ing our fellow workers; that we call upn all those , in Colorado who are prosecuting our fellow work- ■ ers; tliat we call upn all those who believe in main- i laming for each and every person all the rights ; gunranleeed him by law. to join with us in this , solemn and emphatic protest; and be. it further ! "Resolved, That we call upon our Local Unions. 1 Sub-District and District organizations to hold pro- i test meetings and adopt suitable resolutions de- tliis■ the dreams of the restoration of a Parliament manding that i'-qual and exact justice lie accorded in Dublin should be realized not later than next i our fellow workmen in Colorado when brought lo September,hence if between now and lhat date the j trial for alleged offenses with which they are or :'.,*'-,.' ii*' ;., i,.-.l..,,,! ,.,;n i liave been charged: and he it further war is brought to a close elections in Ireland Willi r- be prominently in the lime light. "Resolved, that we extend to John K. Lawson. David Robb. Hen Richardson. Louis Zancanelli and suit of suoh legislation, a wouderful im-provemeiit in the Exchequer but no one has been able to prove that it decreased the unemployed problem or gave the workers a greater share of their product. During the early factory peniod in England women and children were hired in such large numbers that, as ono Dr. Aiksn stated in 1795: "As a result of improved machinery, domestic life was seriously endangered on acruint of fem.ite labor in ..he- factories " Laws against child labor have been enacted. Why? VtecaiiKe continued exploitation of children would ireah physical degen^raty ot ui-j slave, in other words, would mean thc death of the goose that lays the golden egg. Then tite reformer gets busy exposing the horrors of child labor and the workers begin tq look around and agree with him. They think he is a marvellous Individual, he is so clever and sympathetic, 'nut if one of thrown class, who has been looking around at conditions, digging beneath ihe surface of things, gets out and titles to expose the attitude of these reform movements, the working class will say that he is too radical. The working class must realize that the joib they worship so" religiously is crucifying them. It is not a job they ■ need, but the knowledge that they produce the wealth of the world, that • there are facilities of production In existence to enable the working class to produce more than epough food, clothing and shelter, to supply the wants of every man, woman and child. The voters of B. C. have been asked to build railroads at every election past; these railroads have been built! and the B. C. voters are no better off, i Railroad policies should interest only i those who own them. j Compensation acts are to compen-i sate those who produce the wealth of the. world. There, is no clause In these acts for injured politicians, stock exchange patrons, shareholders in the Standard Oil, or the C. P. R„ but those who run the industries of this country are' to be compensated by those who do nothing but live on the wealth that the working class produce. Just fancy a couple of robbers holding you up for a hundred "bones," and just as they were getting away assistance comes and holds theni up. Would you make a settlement to let them off if they gave you ten dollars? Why! you would want the whole cheese back and you wouldn't be satisfied till you got it. Well, capitalism exploits from the working class all the wealth they produce and gives them back wages (Mr. W. J. Donovan, of New* Edinburgh, Out,, writes, "For. two years I suffered with bleeding piles. The pain was most ' intense. I tried first one and- then another,.of the so-called.- remedies, ibu't without effect. At last I decided to try Zam- Buk. This- gave quick relief from the dull gnawing pain, and perseverance with Zam- Buk'entirely cured me." 'Mr. Henry S. Fougere, -Poula- mond, N.S., says,—"I suffered terribly with piles and could not find anything to give relief until, I tried Zam-Buk. The first few applications eased the pain. I ■continued using Zam-Buk and am now completely cured." The above letters are taken from hundreds which have been received from men and women have ended their suffering from piles by using Zam-Buk. Why not do likewise Whether it be Piles, Eczema, Ulcers, or other skin disease, Zam-iBuk gives quick relief. As soon as applied, the rich herbal essences, of which ZanwBuk is composed, penetrate right to the root of the trouble, stop the irritation and stimulate the growth of new healthy tissue.

Now, a clean body is one in -which the waste matter is regularly and naturally eliminated from 'the system. The blood cannot be pure when the skin action is weak, when the stomach does not digest the food properly, when the bowels do not move regularly, when the kidneys are strained or overworked. Pure blood is the result of perfect health and harmony of stomach, liver, bowels, kidneys and skin. "Frujt-a-tives", by their wonderful action on all these organs, keeps the whole system as clean as Nature intended our bodies to be clean. "Fruit-a-tives" tones up, invigorates, strengthens, purifies, cleans and gives pure, rich, clean blood tbat is, iu truth, the stream of life.

The larger branches, wherever given ot, divide and subdivide into branches of very minute diameter. The minute branches pass into capillaries. Capillaries are a network of fine vessels that transmit the blood from lhe minute branches of the arteries to the minuto v«iins. The Venoua System The venous system begins In small vessels that are slightly larger than the capillaries from which they spring. The vessels unite into larger and larger veins until they terminate In the two venae cavae (large veins) which empty Into the right side fo the heart. The arteries and veins ore continuous with each other by means of the heart und by means of this fine network ol small vestals and capillaries. The Circulation of tha Blood From the right .side of the heart the bright red blood that flows, usually In gushes, with each beat ot the herfrt. 'llie blood ln the capillaries Is also bright red in color but in case of bleeding from these small vessels the blood oozes slowly from the wound. The blood in the veins is dark red or blue ln color and Is circulating; back to the heart. Weed ing from a vein may be known by a continuous flow of dark red or blue blood. The Respiratory System The essential part ot respiration (breathing) la tho exchange of the carbonic acid gas in the blood for the oxyften in tbe air, wblch takes place In the lungs. The respiratory apparatus consists of the nose, pharynx, trachea (windpipe), bronchial tube* and lungs. The noso Is not only an organ or respiration, but also of the sense of smell. Through tho nose the air Is warmed uud moistened; tho olfactory supplied with blo-wl vessda, hound to- »ry tracts. »..-•,*.. -b#.,w- J™Mnto bundle-i of differs, length, j Suggested Topic for Further Study serous tamdth and thickness.

Tlie trachea or windpipe ls ,a cylindrical tube about 4»i laches long extending trom the larynx down the front of the neck into the thorax, whero It dlvldeB into tho .bronchial tubes. Tbe bronchial tubes divide Into a great number of small branches, which in turn divide Into still smaller branches and finally terminate In numberless small dilated cavities or paunches, known as tbe air cells. These air ceils ln turn form lobules, which together make up lobes that form the lungs. The lungi are two large, slate-colored, cone-shaped, membranous sacs composed of a soft, spongy and very elastic tissue. The Interior of the B!ics communicates freely with the out- hMp nlr through tho bronchial tubes, trachea, etc., whereas the outside of the sacs Is protected from atmospheric pressure by the walla of the chest. The atmospheric pressure on the In* xlde of the lungs expands them until thoy fill the entire thoraclo cavity. If the wall of the thorax la opened so au to make communication with,tko outside air, or If the wall of the lung ia pierced so that the air ean commwnl- cute with the pulmonary cavity, then at onco the lung shrinks or collapses, because the pressure Is equalised In the outside and Inside of ibe sacs. Thc lung substance la composed chiefly of uh ttll*. The •nails of the air eril* consist of very thin layers ot lining eells surrounded br wide, thin-walled blood vessels, By tltie mrrangeineut only a very delciate membrane la interposed between the etr on tbo ono «ldo and the blood on lh* otber. so thit gates are readily exehnngel be- tveen the two.

It the body ls to properly perform ita function nnd life to continue, oxygen muBt be constantly supplied. Continued breathing of atuffy or stale air impairs the vHallty and renders one liable to diseano. Air low ln oxygen or containing much canbon dioxide 1s unfit tor breathing. The prolonged breathing of such air will produce a condition of asphyjeia and finally doath. To lniure good health, it Is estimated that a person requires at least 1.000 cubic feet of air space, and thc aii breathed should be frequently renewexl through proper ventilation. The Digestive System The digestive or alimentary apparatus consists primarily of a loiifi tubo composed of the mouth, pharynx, esophagus, stomach, and Intestines, with tho tfallvury glands, liver, and pan- crcua as Accessory organs- This canal Is about 30 feet long and vurle* In diameter, it extends from the mouth to {ho anus. Its functions are, first, to separate the nutrive material from the food and expel the residue from the body; nnd, second, to convert tho nutritive matter Into such form tbst It can be easily absorbed Into tbe blood and be utilised -by tbe tissues as food. To get a clear understanding of bow this Is accomplished a knowledge of the separate parta forming the digestive apparatus f« neeicsnary. Thr» ijues- tion of food, lit preparation, digestion, and assimilation Is auch a vital one and so affects health and efficiency thai a thorough knowledge by first aid men of tbe anatomy ani physiology of tbe digestive system seems essential.

These waste products arw carbonic acid gas, salts, urea, and Water, They are continually brought Into the blood by tho circulation through tbe capll«„ laries. Life snd health depend upon • the blood ridding itself of these poisonous products through the lungs, skih and kidneys. Suggested Topics for Further Study Tne lungs as an excretory organ; the skin as an excretory organ; the kidneys as an excretory organ. Tha nervous Syatem Tbe different systems of the body are kept ln touch with each otber by the nervous system and the functions and j workings of the organs are con. trolled and regulated by It Tbo elements comprising the nervtous system are nerve cells or centers, snd nerves. The nerves are round cords consisting ot nerve fibers wbleb form connections -between the centers snd ends of the nerves. The fibers can transmit nervous Impressions and nre ot two kinds, according to the function tbey perform. Those that convey impressions from their tips to their centers are sensory nerves; those that transmit Impression* from these centers to the parta with which I tboy are connected are called motor nerves. The nerve centers are bunches of nerve cans snd sre distribute in tbe brain, spinal cord, nnd ganglia. They receive and send out nervous impressions. The nervous system is divided Into tho cerebrospinal a-nd sympathetic systems; the former Is composed jf large nerve centers In tbe brtin and spinal cord, (ho latter Is t scries of si.mll comers termed ganglia running along on cither side of the spine.

Title | The District Ledger |
Publisher | Fernie, B.C. : J.W. Bennett |
Date Issued | 1915-05-29 |
Description | The Nakusp Ledge was published in Nakusp, in the Central Kootenay region of southeastern British Columbia, from October 1893 to December 1894. The paper was subsequently published as the Ledge both in New Denver, from December 1894 to December 1904, and in Fernie, from January to August 1905. The Ledge was published by Robert Thornton Lowery, a prolific newspaper publisher, editor, and printer who was also widely acclaimed for his skill as a writer. After moving to Fernie, the paper continued to be published under variant titles, including the Fernie Ledger and the District Ledger, from August 1905 to August 1919. |
