CONFERRED
WITH UNION
McKenzie King's Mission
-Visiting Spokane
Today.
Mackenzie King, deputy minister of labor, who is here investigating the strike situation, had a
lengthy conference with the union
executive last night. ■   -,
Mr. King will meet the union in
a day or so again for a further conference.
The deputy minister left at noon
today for a short" visit to Spokane.
He will return to Rossland either
tomorrow or Thursday evening.
Pending his further enquiry into matters here Mr. King had
nothing to say today for publication.
Beyond getting at the real facts
of the strike it is not likely that
Mr. King's inquiry wiil have any
practical bearing on the situation
at the present time.
A LESSON
LEARNED
The Workers Must Maintain Their  Organizations to Win.
The unorganized or newly-organized workers have always looked upon themselves as entirely impotent, and therefore unable to secure any redress for any wrongs
whioh may have been inflicted upon them. Their comparatively low
condition and sufferings have made
them desperate, and in their unity
a new-found power dawns upon
them, the situation is completely
changed, and they regard their
employers as powerless to resist
any demand, and themselves aB
almighty.
After the first contest, both have
learned a lesson; and if the workers maintain their organization,
they find that neither side possesses all the power nor all the responsibility. They have mutual
respect for each other, and enter
into mutual agreements.
The best organized workers,
those who are better prepared to
enter into strikes to resist lockouts
are those who have least occasion
to engage in them, and yet are the
greatest beneficiaries from modern
civilization in tne form of higher
wages, shorter hours of daily labor,
Sunday rest. They attain a higher plane of morality, economic, political and social independence.

A NEW GUN RULE
What Really Happened at
Northport.
ALWAYS KEEP CLOSE TO A GUN
No Force Near the  Muzzle—Real
Danger Point Miles Away—Bullet Will Drop in Your Shoe.
Most people imagined that the
nearer they got to the muzzle of a
revolver when it was fired the
greater the danger to life and
limb.
ThiB usually adopted theory is
now exploded. If you are right up
against the gun you are safe and
the bullet will drop in your ahoe,
or your hat, or possibly stay in
your pocket, so that you can show
it to your admiring friends—and
the court a little later on. The
real danger point is about five
miles off. Here the fatal missive
will have gained sufficient velocity
to penetrate the brain of a newspaper man, if he has one.
The Spokesman sa> s that Kennedy the assaulted Northport man
stated after he was shot that a man
handed him a gun which he knew
would not go off and that he was
not able to protect himself.
The Rossland Miner in ita deep
anxiety to protect its Northport
friend, gives the following marvelous account of the shooting. Nothing has ever been heard of at all
like it.   Here il the gem:
"He, Kennedy, struck at the
head of Stark, who struck back
with his, a 41 Colt's, when they
clinched and Kennedy pressed the
muzzle of his gun to Stark's back
and fired, burning a hole through
his coat, but there being no force
to the shot on account of the close
proximity, the ball did not enter
his body, but dropped down into
his shoe, where it was afterwards
found. Stark's wounds was only
slight."
It is needless to add that the
rest of the account of the shooting
given in the today's Miner is as
equally correct and authentic as
the above extract. Intending
fighters should remember in future
always to get right up against their
opponent's gun, as "owing to the
close proximity there will be no
force to the shot!"

been acquitted of a charge of murder, to the woman whose testimony
saved him from the gallows. The
bride was the widow of the murdered man. Geo. H. McLaughlin
was tried for the murder of Harris
McLaughlin, a farmer, and the testimony of Lydia, widow of the victim, established an alibi for the
prisoner, securing hit acquittal.
Immediately after the conclusion
of the trial McLaughlin and the
widow went to the office of the
city clerk and there were married.

Kennedy Is Still Alive and

IN A PRECARIOUS CONDITION
Missourians Taken to Colville Jail—
The Bullet Not Located—Town
Is Quiet.
Northport, Nov. 12.—8 p. m.—
Edward Kennedy, the man who
was shot by Stark on Saturday is
somewhat easier this afternoon.
The result of the X-ray operation
is not known yet as the plate had
to be sent to Spokane to be developed.
Kennedy's lunga have been
drained of the blood whioh nearly
filled them and he is resting quietly this afternoon. He is still in a
precarious condition and it will
take two or three days before he
can possibly be out of danger.
Two of the Missourians concerned in the assault who were in jail
here were taken to Colville today
and will be detained there until
the trial of the case.
Sheriff Lidgerwood has gathered
in all the firearms he could find and

AT NORTHPORT.
When Stark in brought to trial
for shooting Kennedy at Northport
we will get at the facts of the case.
The union men said yesterday that
none of the accounts given by the
different papers were correct, and
they added that having a good case
against Stark they preferred to
reserve their evidence until the
trial.
In the meantime various accounts have appeared. Iu yesterday's Spokesman Taylor, who it is
said, helped to dress Kennedy's
wounds after the shooting, says
that Kennedy remarked, "my'gun
would not work, and the man who
gave it to me knew it would not."
This goes to show that Kennedy
had a gun but it does not explain
when it was handed him or how he
came to have it.
It remains, however, for the
Rossland Miner to give the most
astounding account of the affair.
The Miner thiB morning gives
what is said to be an account by
an eye witness, although the name
is carefully suppressed. According
to this story Kennedy pressed hiB
gun against Stark's stomach and
fired, and Stark's watch stopped
the bullet, which fell in his boot.
Not content with this yarn another
account from one of the Miner's
special correspondents tells the following astounding story. We
print the extract in full:
''When they clinched and Kennedy pressed the muzzle of his gun
to Stark's back and fired, burning
a hole through his coat, but there
being no force to the shot on account of the close proximity, the
ball did not enter hie body, but
dropped down into his shoe, where
it was afterwards found. Stark's
wound was only slight."
We do not doubt the Miner got
both accounts given as the Missouri gentlemen are exceedingly
busy making evidence to exculpate
Mr. Stark from the awkward position he has placed himself, but
how any careful proof reader could
let such a yarn get into cold print
is not understandable. Doubtless
we will be told before long that
Kennedy shot himself in the back
and that Stark has evidence to
prove that he was at the smelter
all the time.
The editorial views expressed by
the Miner today are in keeping
with it latest account of the shooting and its general reference to all
strike matters.
The action of Sheriff Lidgerwood
yesterday in making a general
search for arms is to be commended and we can understand the desire of the smelter authorities that
this should be done now that Mr.
Frecheville is in control.
There is absolutely no excuse
for gun carrying either here or at
Northport and the practice should
be resolutely s'amped out by the
authorities, no matter who the culprit may be.
REDISTRIBUTION.
The press of the province iB discussing the question of redistribution. It is admittedly a necessity if we are to have representative
government in British Columbia.
Several plans have been put forward notably one by the Nelson
Tribune.
The World is not prepared at
tbe moment to suggest any changes
in Mr. Houston's re-arrangement,
but tho facts and figures recently
given by the Inland Sentinel demonstrates the absurdity of the existing lines-
No matter what new arrangements is come to there is sure to
be plenty of kicking over it; yet
the principle that should govern is
fairly clear. Pocket boroughs
should, of course, be abolished no
matter who is affectsed. Population
should be the main factor in drawing the lines, and the geographical
situation must be considered.
It may be "parish politics," but
we would like to see a combination
of the interior representatives on
the subject of redistribution anyway. It is quite clear that without such a movement we cannot
look for anything like justice in
the general make-over and we
think that on this point the members might very well bury their
differences for the time being,
and forco an honest redistribution
measure upon whatever government is in power when the house
meets next spring.

NOTES AND COMMENTS.
We have heard of the Tammany
braves and their sachems. Now
it is "Low, the poor Indian."
Japan has no laws for the protection of labor or restricting the
employment of women and children.
A hundred- years ago every gentleman in this country wore a
queue, A goodly portion of the
community wear queues today.
"But that's a man of another
color."
The possession of a working
card doesn't necessarily mean that
the holder is a union man. There
are principles attached to trade
unionism as there are principles
attached to Christianity. A man
may be a hypocrite in a trade union
as well as in a church.
The silk hat controversy haB
brought out the historical fact that
the first man who wore one in London was arrested, charged with a
breach of the peace. He was
granted his liberty on furnishing
bonds, another instance of mistaken
judicial leniency, entailing its
punishment on subsequent generations.

Compulsory Arbitration—An Ob- __

JUST RECEIVED.
Writing to the editor of the
Bricklayer and Mason, Ed. Tre-
gear, secretary of the department
of labor in New Zealand, haB the
following to say regarding "personal liberty in relation to compulsory
a bitration," which is reproduced
by the Vancouver Independent.
Mr. Tregear writes as follows:
I reiterate that, under the New
Zealand laws, the right to strike is
preserved. Any man in any trade
can cease work when he likes; any
employer may lock out when he
likes. What our law says is that,
when the court has been appealed
to, no man shall work at the trade
adjudicated on for less wages than
the court awards, nor shall an employer pay his workmen less than
the court awards. If the court
says that the wages of bricklayers
within a particular industrial district shall be four dollars for the
day of eight hours for the next two
years, that award due3 not pre,-ent
a bricklayer earning twenty dollars a day.
What it does is to prevent him
from taking three dollars a day,
and so helping the sweating, oppressive kind of employer to compete with and conquer the more fair
and generous variety. If the bricklayer wishes to strike, that is, to
leave off his bricklaying work, he
is perfectly free to do so, but he iB
not free to cut down the wages of
his mates by taking less, and if he
wants freedom of that kind, he can
go to some other place or find another occupation.
Compulsory servitude is endured
by all of us. We cannot get away
from it. When an American marries, he goes into volun a y servitude; his wages, his time, hiB actions, are all under a lien for the
benefit of his wife and future
children. He is the better for it,
too. This discipline, this sacrifice
of our whims for the Bake of others
is what makes men of us, and
curbB the craze for "personal liberty," the fetish whose worship
is common to the millionaire employer and the ragged anarchist.
We are under compulsion always to national law, to social
custom, to our wives and families,
to our trades unions. A little
more "compulsory servitude,"
namely, under an award of the
arbitration court for the benefit of
all our brother workers in that
trade will hurt none of us.

The Meat Buaineaa.
The Sandon Paystreak says: "It
is reported that some of the mine
owners think Pat Burns is getting
too much for his beef and they
contemplate going into the meat
business on their own account. If
the kicking mine owners could
handle their mining interests half
as well aB Pat handles his meat
business they would probably make
all the money they want at their
own graft without bothering about
any body else's cinch."
A Bank for tbe Hub.
Trout Lake is likely soon to
have a bank of its own which, with
that established at Ferguson,ought
to be sufficient to look after all the
"long green" lying loose around
the district. We have reason to
believe that during the course of a
few days a representative of the
bank proposing to open the branch
will arrive in Trout  Lake.—Topic

was stopped by *\%e police in the

SHIPMENT
Over $100 to the Ton-High
Rates for Freight and
Treatment.
The Trout Lake Topic says that
the smelter returns of the Cromwell shipment just to hand are as
follawf, payment being made for
95 per cent of the gold and 90 per
cent of the silver:
Ten thousand two hundred and
eighty-nine pounds gave 5.18 ozs.
gold per ton, or 23.748 ozs. for the
shipment, valued at $451.22. Silver ran 21.0 ozs. per ton, or 95.27
ozs. for the shipment, valued at
$52.70, making a total of $503.02.
Deducting from this the freight
and treatment charges and the net
result is $420.91. The total freight
and treatment charges from the
mine to the smelter is in the neighborhood of $42, which leaves a net
return of about $60 per ton to the
owners. This would have been a
great deal higher but payment had
to be made for a full car and the
percentage of moisture was unus
ually high, being seven per cent.

METEOR
is the new high-grade mining
camp in the south half of the Colville Eeservation, seven miles west of the Columbia river, eight miles southwest of Daisy and 28
miles by good road from Meyers Palls. 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 whioh 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,
saw mill, etc., will be in operation within a short
time. Meteor is a high grade camp of the real
Leadville type, the ores mined being gold, silver,
lead and copper. Picked assays have given as high
as $140,000 to the ton, the average of the camp
being about $35. You can't afford to forget Meteor.
