Joseph Horn at His True Vocation-
Foreigners Wanted to Quit Too—
How They Were Herded.
"We blesi the day we met Mr.
Ingram" start* a document now
said to he in the possession of
Rossland's former chief of police.
The names attached to the writing
are those of some of the miners,
"Stalwart Canadians," and the signatures look very funny. No such
mix-up of English and foreign
names was ever seen before.
Eleven of the original party engaged by the scab-herder at Calgary last week turned up in Rossland yesterday afternoon. They
quit the special at Robson and
walked in here. The men are a
decent looking lot and they say
that when they engaged Ingram
told them positively that there
was no strike on at Rossland and
that the union men had all applied
for work, but that only a few of
them had been accepted by the Le
Roi company. Ingram read the
document to them above referred
to, and also read a statement from
a newspaper (was it the Whiner?)
saWng the strike was all settled
- At Robson the men found out
the true state of affairs and promptly left the special despite the tearful protestations of the ex-thief
catcher, One of them Baid this
afternoon that the foreigners did
not want to come further titan
Robson but they had no leader,
and could not talk English and bo
were helpless.
Joseph Horn, the card game
booster, and the sharper who
trapped Colisto and Beamish, was
very much in evidence at Robson
and did his best to prevent the
men from finding out how matters
stood here. He abused the boat
hands for giving out information
and worked hard to keep the herd
together. Hon. T. Mayne Daly's
"poor persecuted boy" was in his
true element, and doubtless the
company have found plenty of
work for him besides working at
either the smelter or the mines.
Not a single one of the eleven
would go near the mines, and they
are naturally enraged at being
taken in by Ingram.
Closing Out at Cost.
Carpenter & Co. have decided to
close out all of their kodaks and
Photographic supplies at actual
oost. The sale will start Monday
morning, Oct 2Klh, and continue
two weeks. We expect to close out
out everything in this line in that
time, although we have a large
stock of the very best goods manufactured. Our prices are such
that they are bound to sell quick.
Dont't over look this change but
come in at once and lsy in a supply at cost.
Killing and Pulling.
A man and his wife went into a
dentist's. "How much do you
charge for fillin' teeth?" asked the
farmer."
"From ten shillings to one
pound."
"And for pullin'?"
"Two shillings and sixpence."
"Mariar," he said, turning to his
wife, "You'd better get it pulled."
C.P.R. AND THE LEAD TRUST
What Mr. Drewry Thinks of the
Situation.
GOOD RESULTS LIKELY TO FOLLOW
The Refinery Question as It  Now Stands-Want of
Tonnage~The Marysville Plant-St.
Eugene Ore.
J. C. Drewry arrived in Nelson
yesterday on his way to the True
Blue mine at Kaslo, and from
thexd he will go to the St. Eugene
and Great Dane properties.
Mr. Drewry is of the opinion
that the recent activity of the Canadian Pacific railway people with
respect to the establishment of a
refinery is in .' no small measure
due to the eoSfmencement of operations in the Marysville smelter,
which according to the statements
of the men interested in thiB
smelter scheme will keep the C. P.
R. people guessing for some
time.
Already he said it waB intimated
that the United States smelter
trust was interested in the venture and it would not be very surprising if this should prove the
case, nor would it-be unwelcome,
since it could be counted upon as
having the effect of stirring the
C. P. R. poodle. Mr. Drewry said
he was aware that the question
of tonnage had been the stumbling block in the way of the refinery project, but he thought this
difficulty would be removed by the
1st of January. '
The present arrangements between the United States lead producers and the smelter trust expires then, and the outlook was
not    considered   favorable  for   a
renewal of the present arrangement. On the contrary it looked
ver; much as if then would be a
conflict. The present arrangement works to the disadvantage of
British Columbia mines, so that
if it is upset it cannot but work
out to their advantage. If the
lead producers of the United States
started in to fight the smelter
trust it would be but reasonable to
suppose that the trust will do what
it can to put the United States
producers into competition with
the lead producers of British
Columbia and Mexico. This
would give an added value to the
British Columbia Jead and something along this line was necessary
before tha management of the
St. Eugene would consider the
question of shipping.
Thc company was not experiencing any difficulty with respect to
the marketing of its product, but
it did not consider the present
quotations sufficiently - i_r>___ug
and could afford to wait in view
of the prospect of better prices.
The St. Eugene mill is now in
shape to turn out 100 tons of concentrates. This means an ore
tonnage of over 400 tons per
day, so that the property becomes a factor in determining
the probable lead output of the
I year.
NORTHPORT
SITUATION
Nos.  2   and 3 Furnaces
Freeze-New Manager
Tomorrow.
Northport, Oct. 24. (Special).
Nos. 2 and 3 furnaces froze last
night. No. 2 was not relieved until 11 a.m. today, and No. 3 not
until this afternoon.
Mr. Sontag, the new manager
of the smelter is expected to
arrive in the city tomorrow and
will at once assume his new duties.
Ho is expected to bring with him a
man to fill the position of superintendent.
There is considerable dissatisfaction among the scab employes,
as, witli the advent of the new
manager and superintendent, they
expect overtures will be made to
the union men to return to work,
thereby throwing them out of employment. Many of them have
signified their intentions of leaving
for pastures new as quickly as possible.
Notices were posted on the
works today to the effect that union and non union men may apply and receive work at the smelter. The notices have been entirely
ignored by the union men, not a
single application having been
made by them.
The continual freezing up of the
furnaces has been a source of much
annoyance to the company and
the posting of the notices is taken
as the first move in the shape of
an overture to the former union
employes. What the next move
will be remains to be seen.

An Election Altercation at
Vancouver.
A meeting of the shareholders of
the Molly Gibson Mining company
was held in Nelson for the purpose
of confirming the directors in their
powers to borrow the sum of $120,-
000. It is understood that this
amount will be necessary in the
way of improvements to the profitable operation of the Molly Gibson. The money will probably be
advanced by Chicago people and
while the directors had the' power
to negotiate the loan il was thought
that matters would be rendered
easier if the resolution empowering
the directors to make such a loan
were passed by the shareholders.

THEY ARE
RESTRAINED
A Temporary Injunction
Granted by Justice
Irving Today.
An interim injunction was today'
granted by Judge Irving at Greenwood on application of the mining
companies here in regard to the
persons named in the suits brought
by the mining companies against
the miners union and   its  officers.
The injunction was, however,
modified to acoord with the late
decision of the house of lords of
Great Britain in regard to the employes of the Great Western railway of England.
By the injunction, the persons
named in the suits and persons
acting hy their authority are enjoined from besetting the works
of the company or persons iu
their employ, or residences of their
employes, or any place where they
may be for the purpose of persuading or preventing such persons from
working for suid companies or any
purpose except to obtain or communicate information to those employed.
The last clause is one of great
benefit to the union, as it still allows the union mon the right to
bring the whole condition of affairs
to the attention of men who have
been brought in under raisrepn-
sentation, which is the companies
chief weapon for securing recruits.
Angus McDonald, E. C. Rose,
Jas. Twaddle and Wm. O'Brien
are excepted from thu restraining
order, although named in the companies application.
O. B. Wilkie has gone back to
the Lardeau country to complete
some surveying work before the
snow comes.
J. B. Kinty, formerly of the
Nickel Plate and Le Roi mines, returned last evening from the Black
Hills. Mr. Kinty expects to remain in this camp.
The party who stole a comforter
from the Alhambra hotel Saturday
evening is known to the owner, and
unlesB the article is returned immediately prosecution will be commenced.

INJUNCTIONS.
Glancing over tbe notice of the
motion for an injunction against
the Miners' Union which the Le
Roi company moved for before Mr.
Justice Irving at Greenwood this
morning one is struck by the fact
that with one exception all the relief asked is already provided for
by the common law. What the Le
Roi company wants in addition lo
what the law already giveB them is,
the right to prevent any one from
asking their employes not to work
or even from discussing with them
the labor situation in any shape
or form. In the United States
where government by injunction
has become a bye-word, the courts
have carried the policy of non-interference to its extreme length,
and some time ago in Chicago a
workman who called on a fellow-
workman at his house to aBk him not
to go to work was sent to prison
for the offence, althongh the two
men were actually neighbors and
had known one another well for
some years. In other parts of the
States the law has been similarly
applied by the judges of first instance, and the whole question involved is now being fought through
the courts until a final docision is
reached in the United States supreme court.
So conservative a paper as the
Portland Oregonian some two
months ago sounded an alarm over
the application of the law, and insisted tbat some change was necessary.
The plain unfairness of such a
regulation need not be argued now,
but if the law is followed in this
country there will be an outcry
against it.
As matters stand at present, it
is possible for the Le Roi company
to send agents all over the country
who deliberately misrepresent the
true situation here, and by lying
statements, induce men to come
to Rossland for employment. But
if one attempts to tell the deceived
men how matters really stand or
to pursuade them to refuse to fight
against the union the law intervenes and puts the offender behind
the bars.
There is no question of intimidation, coercion or the using of unlawful means of persuasion. The
law very properly provides for all
that, as it stands. What is sought
is practically to restrain free speech
as between working men and to
hand over to the employers a legal
club with which to fell a defenceless class in the community.
We do not believe the law will
work out to the benefit of those
who are seeking to strain it to their
advantage.
The injunction at Northport
was never enforced and accomplished nothing and the same fate
will await one here if it is granted.
NOTES AND COMMENTS.
If the story told by the eleven
men who deserted from ex-Chief
of Police Ingram's ' party
on Tuesday at RobBon is true and
the ex-chief made the statements
concerning the situation here the
men say he did, he should be
roundly punished if it is possible
to bring him within the clutches of
the law.
The feature of the project which
has thus far received the most
notice, and which from a popular
point of view is probably the most
interesting, is the speed which it is
proposed to develop. This is at
the rate of between 125 and 135
miles an hour, or between two and
two and a quarter miles a minute.
The road is only eighteen and one-
half miles in length, and henoe the
trip should be made in eight or
nine minutes. If, however, such a
speed oan be kept up for that interval, it can be kept up for an
hour. All new questions of air
resistance and road and car equipment ought to be disposed of in a
tenth of that time. The coming
trial will involve oomparativey new
and important problems in electrical engineering. The alternating
current will be used, instead of the
direct current, whioh iB in practically universal servioe in traotion
work.
An experiment in electric traction which will command worldwide attention iB soon to be made
on a short military railway extending  southward  from   Berlin.

Commenting on the Rossland
Miner's "strudy Canadians" who
did not arrive on Tuesday the
Nelson Tribune says:
The Rossland Miner goes into
ecstacies in announcing the arrival
at that place of 65 men engaged at
various points east of the Rockies
"on Canadian soil," to work in the
Le Roi mines. They are described
as as "fine a looking party of Canadians as ever came into the
Golden city." The train upon
which they arrived is described as
a special, whioh was run past
regular stopping places for fear
that the "fine looking Canadians
from various points east of the
RockieB" would be annoyed by
"agitators." Every self-respecting
Canadian in Rossland will blush
if he reads the Miners' account of
the arrival of these men from the
Northwest. Blush because of the
assertion that Canadians cannot
act as free agents on Canadian
soil; that they must be herded by
hired gun-fighters and run into
corporation boarding houses like
condemned fellons into prison.
What would be thought of self-
respecting Canadians, who to gain
employment, require to be guarded
and herded like sheep on a range?
No! we do not believe a single
self resje jting Canadian arrived at
Rossland under the conditions
described by the Rossland Miner.
Canadians are men and men are
never herded in Canada except
when serving time in prison.

There is nothing like Asthmalene.
It brings in_tant relief, even in the
worst cases. It cures when all else fails.
The Rev. C. F. WELLS, of Villa
Ridge, 111., says: "Your trial bottle ol
Asthmalene received in good condition.
I cannot tell vou how thankful I feel
for the good derived from tt. I was a
slave, chained with putrid sore throat
and Asthma for ten years. I despaired
of ever being cured. I saw your advertisement for the cure of this dreadful
and tormenting disease, Ast limn, and
thought you had overspoken yourselves,
but resolved to give it a trial. To my
astonishment, the trial acted like a
charm,   fiend me a full size bottle."

wonderful effect of your Asthmalene, for the cure of Asthma. My wife has been
afflicted with spasmodic asthma for the pam 12 years. Having exhausted my own
skill as well ns many others, I chanced to eee your eign upon your windows on
130th street, New York, I at once obtained a bottle of Asthmalene. My wile
commenced taking it about the first of November. I very soon noticed a radical
improvement. After using one bottle her Asthma has disappeared and she is entirely free from all symtoms. I teel that I oan consistently recommend the medicine to all who are afflicted with this distressing disease.

VACCINATION FOR BRIDES.
Dawson   Waddings  Delayed  by Health
Impector.
A recent Dawson dispatch says:
Four brides, one from Seattle, who
arrived from the outside on the
steamer Yukoner, coming in to be
married here, had a romantic conclusion of their engagements. It
happened the steamer Yukoner had
brought soveral smallpox patients
down tho river a trip or two before
the brides came. The health
officer did not learn the fact until
this later trip, when tho Yukoner
was about to lalnl in Dawson with
the brides and hor other passengers.
Tho vessel was, unexpectedly to
those aboard, boarded here and
fumigated, and all the passengers
nol having vaccination certificates
or being able to make affidavit they
had been vaccinated within the
last seven years^ were required to
submit to the operation of the vessel.
Two if not more of the bridse had
to bare their arms with others.
The trouble did not end here. The
baggage of the brides was seized
for fumigation, and three who
could not wait even a day to be
wedded had the ceremony enacted
in their ordinary garments, while
the trousseaux were treated to sulphur. The steamer got in at sunset and before midnight three of
the couples were wedded, and the
fourth was united three days later.

UNION
MEETING
A Large Attendance Last
Evening-Next Meeting
on Tuesday.
The regular meeting of the
Miners' Union was held laBt night
at the usual hour. The attendance
was very large, the hall being filled
to its capacity. Many interesting
and encouraging letters were read.
A communication from the San
Francisco Labor council stated that
the firms placed on the unfair list
at that place during the strike had
been removed from the list by the
settlement of the difficulties between the companies and their employes. Among the firms are Levi
Strauss & Co. and Nues taclter Bros.,
manufacturers of Boss of the Road
overalls. As their goods are quite
popular among workingmen in this
vicinity all will be pleased that
they are now using their employes
right.
A communication from Rev. A.
M. Sanford was received stating
that Rev. Elliot S. Rowe, of
Metropolitan church,Victoria,B.C..
would lecture here next Wednesday on social questions. The
marked ability of tbe gentleman,
being known, as well as his sympathy with the labor movement, it
was decided to hold the next regular meeting on Tuesday night at
the usual hour in order to enable
the members to attend, and to
tender the use of the Miners' Union
hall for the lecture.
The report of the executive committee on the strike situation was
received and their present attitude
unanimously endorsed.

Nelson, Oct. 24.—John McKane
arrived in Nelson yesterday from
the Lavina group and will go on
to Rossland today. He says the
Lavina continues to develop nicely.
Th* sacking of ore is going on and
there is now in the neighborhood
of 100 tons ready for shipment.
Mr. McKane confirms the report
of the deal on the McLaughlin and
Clinton properties which adjoin
the Lavina. There are nine claims
in this group, the principal owners
of which are McLaughlin and
Clinton. The owners claim to have
the Lavina ledge. Their showing
is altogether on the surface and
consists of stripping and cross-cutting of the vein. They had also
started a cross-out tunnel to get in
under a promising showing they
had on the surface, but it had not
been run in far enough when the
deal was made to render it of any
value in showing up the property.
The men who have secured the
bond upon the property are residents of Boston. The bond calls
for the payment of $42,000 in payments scattered over a considerable
period. The holders of the bond
are having the entire group of
claims surveyed and from the scale
upon whioh work is being planned
for the winter it is evident that the
Boston men were well satisfied
with their holding and that they
intend to complete their payments.
The assays received from the
McLaughlin and Clinton ledge
have been uniformly high.

miles hy good road from Meyers Falls. The town-
site is in the centre of tne rich aggregation of
mines comprising the Meteor, Stray Dog, White
Swan and Given groups, all of which are working
in high-grade shipping ore. A great number of
very promising properties are opening up in the
vicinity. It is surrounded by a splendid agricultural, fruit growing and stock raising country,
unequalled in the northwest, and has a splendid
supply of timber for building and mining purposes, together with unlimited water power near
It has already, besides a store, a number of buildings in course of erection, and a telephone service,
