Next to Bank B N. A.
E. T. Holloway, one of the late
directors of the Great Western and
Kootenay Mines companies is thus
reported by the B. C. Rejyiew aB
speaking at the late amalgamation
meeting held in London.
"Mr. Holloway said he was not
in accord with the policy of the
old directors. At the former meeting he had dealt very lightly and
gently with both the directors and
Mr. Macdonald, the mining engineer in British Columbia, but he
found that he had hurt the feelings
of Mr. Macdonald by trying to
criticise him both at the meetings
and subsequently at an interview
at theollices of the company, andhe
was told that Mr. Macdonald had
taken up this attitude—that if he
(Mr. Holloway) were on the board
of the new company he would not
continue to be itB mining engineer.
It had never struck him that Mr.
Macdonald's services were of such
value to the company that he
could presume to dictate the policy
which should be adopted in Lon-
•  .n
He protested against theboard and
the committee being governed and
influenced by what Mr. Macdonald
said. If he were on the board he
would make Mr. Thompson the
manager. Mr. Macdonald was
connected with the Rossland
and the Kootenay and with the
Le Roi No. 2, and he (Mr.
Holloway) thought tbat therein
lay the secret of his being retained.
He had reason for thinking that
the gentlemen who were at the
head of this movement at present
were more interested in promoting
the prosperity of Le Roi No.2 than
of the two unfortunate companies,
the Kootenay and the RoBBland,
and it is an extraordinary thing
that the fall in those shares synchronised with the reappearance of
Mr. Macdonald on the field.
It waa the usual function of a
dog to wag his own tail, and when
they found the tail began to wag
the dog the dog was not worth keeping. In this case Mr. Macdonald
tried to wag the company and the
directors.
My view is that the management
should be changed at the mine.
That is my personal view—it is
not tie view of the committee. Mr.
Macdonald has spent nearly £70,-
030 of tbis company's money in
five i 'uonths, and I contend he
should not have the handling < f
the new capital. As he haB Bent
in his resignation, my feeling is
that it ought to be accepted gratefully I think we ought lo be glad to
be relieved of his services.
I shall complain if the management in British Columbia is continued in the hands of Mr. Macdonald, and I shall complain also if
the members of the old board become members of the new board,
and I shall make my complaints
heard aslondly as I can at the
meetings which have to be held
hereafter.

The annual report of the Ymir
for the year ending December 31st
Inst discloses a very satisfactory
position, Bays the B. C. Review.
During this period 69,505 tons of
ore were crushed, yielding a net
value of £1 12b. per ton. The gross
proceeds from the ore produced
amounted to £114 887, and after
t '.lowing for depreciation and mine
development, a net profit remained
of £45,242. With the balance
carried forward from the previous
year there was an available profit
of £86,201, and of this sum £43,-
659 has been expended upon machinery, development, etc.
Although the policy of the board
in the past has been to defray the
cost of increased plant, development, etc., out of profits, it is now
felt that the company is so well established that it would be to the
interest of the shareholders to in
crease the capital to provide for the
cost of further improvements rather
than hold back a substantial portion of the profits, and for this object the directors propose to increase
the capital of the company by
.£20,000. The report of the company's engineers speaks very hopefully of the future of the undertaking, and Btates that at the end
of last year there were 134,000 tons
of ore in sight, sufficient to keep
the stamps in continuous work for
over two years.
We note that while driving the
long tunnsl, known as No. 10, until the main body waB reached no
mineralised rock had been met
with, but the manager appears to
be quite convinced that the pay
shoot of the main vein has dipped
to the east, and will therefore not
be met with until the tunnel has
been driven further in that direction. Several economies have
been effected, and the cost of stoping has been reduced to 6s. per ton,
as compared with about 7s. 9d.
during the prevtous year.
The mill returns shows that
slightly over 21 tons is crushed per
stamp per 24 hours. The cost 1 f
milling, excluding the cost of
power, is placed at slightly under
2s. per ton. The mill practice is
evidently eflicient, showing a recovery of nearly 80 per cent. The
fall in the price of silver and lead
has, of course, affected the company's profits to some extent, amounting to over 128,000 for the
year. The manager points out
that the mineral tax is equivalent
to 3i\ per cent of their operating
profit, which is unnecessarily onerous, and he holds out no hope of
a more enlightened policy in this
respect.
Possibly the new minister of
mines may be able to effect a settlement of this much-vexed question.
CITY WINS OUT
Mines Must Show   Their
Bona Fides.
THE WAR EAGLE CONCENTRATOR
Companies Must Begin Work Before
Getting Any  Further
Grants.
The upshot of three days hard
talking before Gold Commissioner
Kirkup anent the water rights to
Murphy, Rock and Stoney creeks,
with the Trail smelter and the War
Eagle and Centre Star as contestants and the municipality of Rossland as a much interested
party to the case, has been that
the War Eagle and Centre Star
have succeeded in each getting
three interim records to the water
on the three forks of Murphy, the
smelter withdrawing.
The application aB to the water
on Stoney creek has been dismissed on the ground of the charter to
the Rossland Water & Light company, now possessed by the city,
and if the sister mining companies
desire to appeal this decision they
must do so within the next 30
days.
As to Rock creek the gold commissioner reserved his decision for
thirty days, giving that time to the
Centre Star and War Eagle to
show the bona fides of their declared intention of erecting a milling or concentrating plant, by
showing the plans of the work to be
done or by giving other substantial
evidence of their intention of doing
something before giving them any
more water.

A JUMP ON
JOSEPH
Trades and Labor Council
Score Martin Because
of His Attitude.
At the regular meeting of the
tradeB and labor council last night
after the transaction of the ueual
routine business the following resolution was put and carried unan-
mously:
Whereas Hon. Joseph Martin
has introduced into the provincial
legislative assembly a socalled
trades union bill which, because of
its lack of explicitness and the
presence of nullifying clauses will
be of no value in resisting tlie
pnneevtidna^bxeqgb^gaxBPi tn
union under the Taft Vale decision
of the house of lords and
Whereas the member for Rossland, Smith Curtis, has introduced
an adequate bill which is almost
an exact replica of the bill introduced by Sir Charles Dilke into
the British house of commons,
which will have the effect of restoring to the Trades Union act of
1873 the interpretation it always
bore up to the time of the
Taff Vale decision and
Whereas Hon. JoBeph Martin
has gone out of his way to deliberately falsify the meaning of this
bill and to attack an honorable
trades union with branches all
over this province, imputing motives and causes well known to the
said Joseph Martin to be false,
thereby impugning the good faith
and the methods of trades unions
all over British Columbia under
cover of assailing one and
Whereas Hon. D. N. Eberts, a
member of the government has
also declared falsely that the in-
sprting motive for this act introduced by the member for Rossland
emanated from Denver, knowing
full well that a duplicate of the
bill is being introduced into the
British house by a leading member of the Liberal party; therefore, in full knowledge of these
facts, be it
Resolved, that the thanks of tho
Trades & Labor council of this
city of Rossland be tendered to
Smith Curtis for his efforts on behalf of the trades unionism of this
province and the cause of lhe
workers in general and further
that this council expressed unwaveringly its denunciation of tho
foul methods pursued by the Hon.
Joseph Martin and the lion,
Eberts and declare these politicians to be unworthy of the support of any voter belonging to the
trades unions or to the party of
progress.

WATER RIGHTS.
It will have been noted bv observers of the course of events in
Eastern Canada that a law has
been introduced in Ontario whereby iu future no grants of waler
rights shall be given to any industrial enterprise whatsoever. These
rights will in future be strictly pre
served for the use of the people to
whom they belong. There is no restriction on companies enjoying
theBe rights on the payment of a
small rental annually but the
water is not for ever alienated from
the people. It was contended
against the act that the payment
of the rent would entail an additional tax upon the industry but
the hardship thus suffered, if any,
is not commensurate with the amount of wrong done to the people
when a company controls the whole
of the available water within a
certain district and the munici
palitieB within its boundaries have
to pay a heavy tax to the usurping
possessors.
As Smith Curtis pointed out during his campaign several years
since the government enjoys a very
valuable asset in the power stored
up in the streams flowing down the
mountain sides all over the Kootenays. Of course he was laughed
at for his statement and notably by
the very people who ever since
have done their best to corral these
very streams to their own exclusive
benefit, and h{ive entered upon a
litigation, extremely expensive,
which up to the present has not
been concluded. If these streams
were really worthless and the
scheme propounded for utilizing
their power to the benefit of the
revenues of this province was
"wild" and its projector a "visionary" how is it that so much trouble
has been gone to by local companies in this matter? In time to
come Rossland will need very
much more wa'er than it does today, and if certain companies are
permitted to have ought else but
.merely interim rights when that
day comes the citizens of Rossland
will have to pay heavily for the
privilege of having wa'er.
It will be noted that the east has
again taken in the lead in progressive legislation and the broader,
freer west is lagging behind following humbly in the trail of hidebound and antiqua'ed lawyers and
politicians.
THOSE SUBSIDES.
It is to be no'ed with satisfaction that the action of Smith Curtis in arraigning the premier before
the late defunct commission has
had the effect of cutting the whole
of the ei.ormous land grants out of
the railway bills. It is something
for which every resident in this
province should thank the member for Rossland, and it bIiowb the
power of one lone man when he is
energetic and capable and has
right upon his side. It is too much
to expect perhaps that the cash
subsidies should be also cancelled
but in view of the fact that the
Great Northern are quite willirg
to build the line from Midway to
the coast without subsidy, there
seems to be no legitimate reason
why it should be granted. And as
far as the Canada Northern railway is concerned, as is very well
known, this railway will not be in
a position to build for ten years to
come and when it is prepared it
will have to come through the
north of the province whether it
Jima any kind of a subsidy  ur   not.
It is hardly a business arrange-
to grant money in aid of construction under such circumstances.
The feasibility of a publicly
owned line is only too apparent
for those who are waiting and hoping till weary. If the provincial
government can afford to givejja
cash bonus of $4000/perI mile ^to
which the Dominion add another
$S000,and also a land bonus which
when valued at only 50 centB an
acre (but which is seldom Bold under $2 50 to $5 and later on $10 to
$25) amounting to another $10,000,
it can easily be Been that the government could well afford to construct the line itself, however bankrupt financially ?it may be. The
cost of construction seldom exceeds
$10,000 to^7000~i)er~miTe"and'often can be done for less than half
the lesser sum under favorable
conditions.
NOTES AND COMMENTS.
Discussing Gait on mining a
miner says that evidently the attorney in question regards the
boarding house as the paystreak of
the mine.
Eberts says that the Trades
Union Bill emanated from Denver.
Now we wonder what connection
there is between Sir Charles Dilke,
the father of the bills and the W. F.
M.
There is a great deal about Hel-
mcken in the papers Bimply because he did his duty. The boom
will not last. Brains must tell in
the end, and Smith Curtis is bound
to come out on top.
It is strange that the Miner in
condemning Curtis' Trades Union
bill persistently evades the point
that the bill is the same as that introduced into the British house by
Sir Charles Dilke. Abuse poured
upon Curtis applies equally to
Dilke.
Itis also slrange that the Miner
make no allusion to the public
meoting of tonight re school question. Perhaps it iB desirous that
nobody should attend except those
interested in passing certain resolutions. To this end doubtless
the meeting is to be held in a small
room on the score of expense,
whereas all the schools of the city
are open for the purpose.
Nothing recently more clearly
shows the attitude of lhe Boers on
the war than the fining by them of
certain Cape Colonists for giving
that information of their presence
which tbey were in duty bound to
do as loyal citizens. The only
justification of such a fine is tbat
the persons fined should be of the
same nationality as the finera instead of aliens resisting invasion ns
in this case. The Boers evidently
think that all South Africa should
belong lo them. If the war is a
war of conquest it is a war of conquest on both sides and the losers
will get no sympathy if they squeal
at thu inevitable consequences.

FIGURES TALK.
The fi th annual meeting of the shareholders
of Ihe Crow's Nest PaBs Coal company was held
in Toronto on March 7th.
Trw net profits of the year after paying all
operating expenses and all Charge of every kind,
amounted to $207,848.39. After paying a dividend at the rate nf ten percent per annum, a balance of $28,142, 89 was canied forward to the
credit of profit and loss.
This company's assets are their coal mines
and t^e townsi e of Fernie. Four years ago this
company had no transportation facilities, and their
st«ck fold as low as eleven cents per Bhare, Today their stock is selling at $90.
The Similkameen Valley Coal com pan v, limited, assets are coal mines, timber, water power,
agricultural and horticultural land, city water
w.irks, electric light plant and the townsite of
Ashnola, surrounded by the following resources:
gold, copper, silver, lead, iron, lime, fire clay,
platinum, and a fine stockraising country, and it
is the smelting center of the Similkameen valley, with a climate that is all that could be asked,
Vou can secure an option on this company's stock
by paying 10c per share down,- and ten ceuts per
month until fully paid, wi h non-forfeiture clause.
This price is subject to twenty-five cents advance
without noice as soon as transportation is assured.
The present price is $1.10 per Bhare. Do not wait
until it is too late, but get in on the ground floor,
and make a handsome profit. A purchaser of
one hundred shares now, may gain a profit of
$8 990. Crow's nest shares as an example. This
would be a fair profit on an investment of ten
dollars per month for eleven m< nths. We invite
the fullest inspection of the company's affairs by
iniending purchasers. For further information

Paine's Celery
Compound
A POSITIVE CURE FOR   DISEASE
It Has a Fame and Reputation That
No Other Medicine Can
Boast of.
It is not what is said in the
newspapers about Paine's Celery
Compound, but what it does—its
life-saving work—that explains its
world wide fame and popularity.
It is well that all should know
that Paine's Celery Compound is
not an ordinary patent medicine
ranking with the nervines, sarsa-
purillas,bitters and pills of the day.
Paine's Celery Compound is as far
beyond these common remedies as
the effulgent light of the midday
sun is superior to the tallow candle.
Paine's Celery Compound possesses extraordinary virtues and
powers for health building and life
lengthening.
Professor Edward K. Phelps, M.
D., LL.D., its discoverer, gave this
marvellous medicine to the profession aB a positive cure for sleeplessness, nervousness, wasting
strength, dyspepsia, rheumatism,
neuia!gia,kidney and liver troubles.
Since its introduction, tens of
thousands have been raised fiom
sickness and disease to perfect
health and vigor. No other medicine in the world was ever so highly honored and recommended; no
other has accomplished such a
blessed mission amongst the sick.
When the honest physician is
called upon to prescribe for weak,
rundown, overworked, debilitated
and ailing men and women, he invariably recommends the use of
Paine's Celery Compound
• At this time no household can
afford to be without Paine's Celery
Compound. It is within reach of
all classes. It makes the sick well
and the cures permanent. Strengthen, purify and regulate the system
at once with this greatest and best
of all remedies, and yon will be in
a condition lo resist all invasion of
disease.
