FISHING DISPUTE
Need of Hatcheries Strongly Emphasized.
TRAPS  WILL  KILL INDUSTRY
Expert Evidence Given at Victoria
- Greed of the Cannery
Owners.
Victoria, B.C., Feb. 7.—The first
witness heard before the Fishery
Commission In Victoria in the fishermen's behalf was John G. Coles;
an old Newfoundlander, from Harbor Grace, who brought nearly half
a century of fisherman's experience.
The greater part of the time bad
been spent in Labrador and Newfoundland, but out here he bad
fished nine seasons.
He believed that if tbe appliances used on Puget Sound were
permitted in Canadian waters, the
salmon would be extinct in 25 years,
at most. He remembered u great
catch in Labrador in 1854, where a
single huge seine had been put
down and never lifted until 11
Bchooners were loaded with herring.
Going on to 1833 schooners going
there could only get a couple of
barrels. He also spoke at some
length upon the effects of traps on
cod fishing there.
Referring to salmon fishing here,
he stated that while tbe Canadian
government had two hatcheries for
87, the Americans had some 14
hatcheries for 17 canneries. In
ay American traps might be
catching their own fish. Through
these traps they were able to get
cheaper fish than the Canadian
canners, for whom he was sorry.
Still the introduction of traps
would end the industry here in a
few years.

A Much Larger Influx Is
Expected - Good  Demand for Land.
Mr. J. Obed Smith, Immigration
Commissioner, stationed at Winnipeg, has just returned from a trip
on the Soo line, which he took in
connection with arrangement for
thc reception of a large number of
immigrants from tbe United States.
The movement, Mr. Smith says,
to Canadian territory, has already
commenced. He expects twice as
many as came in last year over the
Soo road, or 36,000 at least. The
land along the Soo line, which
Bold a year ago for $3 per acre, is
now on the pricelist of the railroad
companies and others, at from $4
to 17 per acre, and the demand is
very great.

The third annual meeting of the
Gold Reef Mining and Milling
oompany was held here last Monday, the old board being re-elected
with W. B. Townsend president,
and W. H. Danby secretary. It
was determined to examine the
properties with a view of continuing development on a larger scale
just as soon as the season permitted. The contiguous development
of the Fog Horn on the same, the
Ymir, belt of free milling quartzite
has shown values as high as $86.40
to the ton and as the same lead
baa bean encountered in the company's property it is expected that
if the work be proBeouted with enlarged scope equally encouraging
results should be arrived at.

The regular annual meeting of

The following directors were
elected for the ensuing year: Geo.
H. Robinson, Charles R. Leonard,
Thomas M. Hodgens, Chas W. Mc-
Meekin, James T. Hillis, J. W. Lee
and Frank M. Leonard.
The four last named have been
residing in Vancouver for some
time past in connection with the
management of the company,
while the first three named are
residents of Butte. Mr. Geo. H.
RobinBon is in general charge of
the mining and smelting operations of F. Aug. Heinze. The
company proposes to continue development at the mines in a small
way until the snow permits work
of surface construction to begin.
Plans for a GOO ton concentrator,
are already under way at Butte,
and it is believed that this mill
will be in operation before the beginning of another year.

Injunction Removed From  n RI0I1  Copper Property.
Helena, Mont, Feb. 7.—The supreme Court today "modified the
injunction granted by Judge Clancy, April 25, 1901, which has prevented the Boston ifc Montana company from operating the Leonard,
one of the richest copper properties
at Butte, belonging to that company. The injunction remains in
in force so far aB it applies , to the
Gambetta and Piccola mines.
Under the modified order the Boston and Montana company may
operate the the Leonard.
Today is the first day of the
Chinese New Year, being tbe 28th
of Kwangsu. The holiday is supposed to last till the next new
moon, or at all events to the full of
the present. Chinese invariably
settle accounts at this season of the
year, and then proceed to bankrupt

Vancouver, Feb. 7.—General
Freight Agent Peters, of the C. P.
R. says news is expected at any
lime of an arrangement by which
the Canadian-Australian liners will
call^at Suva on their way to Vancouver. Another steamer, now being built on the Clyde for this line,
will take the place of the Miowera.
The probability is that a third
boat will be secured to replace the
Aorangi, and then a call can be
made at Suva, with the whole trip
shorter than at present. The sailing dates will be altered lo match
with the departure of the three-day
Montreal express.
Mr. Peters has just returned
from attending a meeting at Seattle
for the making of freight rates to
Dawson this season. The meeting
was officially assured that the
White Pass railway would make a
big reduction in rates to head off
St. Michael competition, and steamship companies will quote rates accordingly.
Victoria, Feb. 7.—A five-year
contract has been entered into with
the'British'government and the 0.
P. R. for the conveyance of troops,
mails and stores between Halifax,
Montreal, and Hongkong, for which
service the Canadian line will receive $60,000 as a subsidy yearly,
of which the Canadian government
will contribute $15,000. A stipulation is made that the liners of
the C. P. R. are liable for war Ber-
vice, and are to be constructed under admiralty supervision, and be
provided with gun platforms, and
otherwise ready to be fitted out as
war ships at a moment's notice.

The Alleged Defunct Union
Is a Pretty Lively
Corpse.
James Wilks has been successful
in organizing a local branch of
the Western Federation of Miners
at Frank, Alberta. The Frank
union Btarts off with a charter
membership of 55, but within a
month it is expected that the
membership will be increased to at
least one hundred. There is in the
neighborhood of 130 men employed
at the mines in Frank and the
beBt of feeling prevails between the
men and management. The officers of the Frank union are:
.Tames Graham, president; S. H.
Lake, vice-president; S. Sutherland, correspondent and financial
secretary, Davis Thomas, conductor; Richard Robinson, treasurer, and A. M. Campbell warden.
Mining drier,,.
The Neepawa intends to ship 100
tons of ore per month.
The Bosun shipped forty tons of
ore last week.
Seven hundred tonB of ore went
away from the Slocan lake minea
in January, and it is expected that
February's shipment will be much
larger.
Palma Angrignon is busy hauling 100 tons of Marion ore to tho
wharf, Bays the New Denver Ledge.
The opening up of spring and the
commencement of navigation ought
to see awaiting shipment at Trout
Lake at least 1500 tons of ore furnished by the two principal mines
of the district, the Nettie L. and

to recognize any obligation to do so.
NOTES AND COMMENTS.
The World recommends the new
market opening to silver ore to the
attention of the Kootenays.
BOGUS NEWS.
Another fuke telegram has been
published by the Miner, this time
with a yellow story of the version
of Father Pat on his death bed,
and the transportal of his body to
Vancouver or England. The late
rector's home was in Ireland, he
having no blood relations as far as
is known on this continent. Such
fairy stories ought to be well authenticated before being published.
To anybody who knew Father
Pat the whole thing is simply incredible.
CHEF CLUTE.
The Miner's gorge evidently
rises at the dish Bet before it in
the delicious entrees aux Walker
et Ingram. The chef is off color
but as that cook was appointed
with the Miner's approval it can
bear no disapproval expressed of
his dishes. This is weak. If the
cook is wrong and the Miner thinks
so why does it not Bay bo and bave
the courage of itB una vowed opinions. It is recognized that tbe promoted chef was a fairly good dishwasher, that is he did not break
over much crokery. If he is made
to understand that his opening
efforts meet with disapproval the
ex-dishwasher may, even at this
late date, try to learn his business
and Bend up something passably
eatable.
The war office is again getting
into trouble. This time over the
remounts. It is time that some of
these officials got unhorsed.
It ie ci iiiciem with a vengeance
when the first vice president of a
great railway system taunts thc interstate commerce commission with
failure to enforce the laws.—Spokane Review.
The most important matter coming before the Associated Boards is
the two per cent, tax as it vitally
affectB the interests of a greater
number of Kootenaians than any
other general question  of the day.
FOREIGN INFLUENCE.
There is a great deal of silly
nonsense talked about the supposed
dictation of the Western Federation in matters of labor in this city.
The people who argue in this
puerile fashion can see no objection
to the pooling of railway interests
for instance, the C. P. R.
Great Northern and Northern
Pacific. Enquire the price of a
fare to the coast from this city and
it will be found that such a pool
muBt exist. If it does not the similarity of rate over widely differing
mileage is a peculiar coincidence.
Labor combines for the Bame reasons, i. e., that the rates by competition should not be unduly
lowered. Enforce the alien labor
act and the Western Federation
would no longer be in the same
position with regard to its aflili-
ation in this province.
Rossland's new board of aldermen may be sincere in their avowed policy of retrenchment, but it
is evident that the retrenchment
which they have in view is not for
home consumption. At tbeir last
meeting they unanimously decided
to cut the salary of the mayor in
two, but almost as unanimously decided to retain their own allowance
of $300 per annum.—Nelson Tribune.

PUBLICITY.
Up-to-date buBinesB men, says
the Ottawa Citizen, believe in taking the papers into their confidence, when no actual reason exists
why this should not he done. If a
reason exiet Ihey alBo take tho
newspaper man into their confidence and frankly Btale the reason
and that reason is almost invariably respected, tbe understanding
being that when the reason no
longer exists the newspapers, who
represent the gublic, will be furnished with the desired information.
This is a very much more sensible
position than that assumed by men
with smaller interests at stake who
appear to think the press and the
public have no business to any information on matters which are
of public interest. These men are
usually the ones who only furnish
information to the newspapers
when the publication is of some
benefit to themselves and then
they expect the papers to throw
open their columns and allow them
io be loaded up irrespective of the

NEW COAL
DISCOVERY
Similkameen   Likely    to
Rapidly Come to the
Front.
Mr. Sam Spencer, of Princeton,
brings news of a most important
strike of bituminous coal in the
Similkameen Valley, says tbe Vancouver World. For some time the
Vermilion Mining and Develop
ment Co., the stock of which is
principally owned in England, and
which is managed by Mr. Waterman, M. E.,ba8 been boring near
the townsite of Princeton. Re-
c ntly at a depth of 70 feet a
seam of good quality of lignite 25
feet thick was struck, and a little
below that a Beam 10 feet thick of
what is pronounced by experts to
be first class bituminous coal was
struck. The company making the
strike has endeavored to keep the
information secret, but it leaked
out, and Mr, Spencer nays there is
no doubt about the strike having
been made.
. This is most important information, for.the -several companies
interested in the coal fields of the
Similkameen Valley, and the strike
will alio have a most important
bearing on the mining and smelting interests of British Columbia.
The Similkameen Valley contains
some wonderful deposits of copper
and gold ores, and is also convenient to the Boundary creek district, and now it has been
demonstrated that it contains good
coking coal.

Report    Presented     nt      the    General
Meeting.
The Goldie-Renr company, operating two claims of that name upon Sullivan creek, has just held its
annual meeting and re-elected the
old officers.
It was reported that a Bmelter is
experimenting with the iron ore
produced by the claims and a deal
may be closed on these lines. Quiet
times and an erratic market have
prevented the company doing any
very material development during
the past year, but it is being arranged to again proceed with the
development as soon as the weather
conditions permit.

Forty members of the House of
Commons have promised to ballot
for the bills promoted by the
Miners' Federation of Great Britain. The federation have five bills
drafted for introduction this session—namely, the Mines Eight-
Hour Bill, the Boy Labor Bill, the
Checkweigher's Bill, the Mines
Regulation Bill, and a bill amending the Workmen's Compensation
Act.
The most favorable place secured
in the ballot is to be given to the
Mines Eight hours bill, and a determined effort made to get it through
the House of Commons. The bill
last year passed its second reading,
but failed to make further progress
owing to the government requiring
the whole time of the House for
public business.
