A LABOR
MAYOR
Ansonia, Conn., Hakes an
Experiment-Result of
a Recent Strike.
Ansonia, Conn., a manufacturing
town of 13,000 people, has recently
experienced the delights of a labor
strike, with injunctions, special
constables, imported workmen and
all the other luxuries. The police
magistrate fined a boy $50 for saying "the scabs have come to town,"
and generally there has been a joyful time. Now a municipal election has taken place and a labor
mayor has been elected in the person of Stephen Charters, and his
first official statements contain
the following:
"We will prove that men in over-
p take charge of a munici-
tyTnd'fcovem'it just atitfttU' as
men who wear kid gloves.
"Wt will prove that in »he ranks
of labor are men who can manage
the finances of a city as well as
bankers and broken.
"There will be no business done
behind closed doors and every one
of my appointees will be held to
the strictest accountability."

Seven barrels piled in front of a

evening caused a feeling of uneasiness in certain circles. A committee was appointed to investigate, and they reported later tbat
while the barrels might contain
champagne, it waB more' likely to
be halcyon—owing to the well-
known character of the owner. It
turned out today to be a question
of export, not import for the holiday
season as at first suspected. The
resident has owned up that the
barrels held simple "dead soldiers,"
bottles that were "has beens" and
for which the owner had no longer
any use.

Jitvkioni Plead Not Guilty.
London, Dec. 20.—Theodore and
and Laura Jackson (Ann Odeliu
Dis Debar) pleaded Dot guilty
when arraigned at the Old Bailey
this morning to stand trial on the
charges which have been so fully
threrhed out in tht Marleyborne
police court. The prisoners were
not defended. There was a very
large crowd in the court room and
in the vicinity of the court when
the Solicitor General Sir Edward
Carson, opened the case, reviewing
the points already published. Discussing the working of the "The-
cratic Unity," Sir Edward Carson
characterized the prisoners as a
"Hellish gang."
On the 12th of December, 1899,

iu sick benefits .1400, and now has
been $800 and $1000 in cash in
hand and investments. The union has attained a standing in this
community which can be pointed
to with pride. It has never encountered the slightest trouble, and
it is safe to say that there is not a
union in the entire province which
has more harmonious relations
with the employers of its members.

SOME FIGURES.
The manager of the Le Roi No.
2 cabled some interesting figures to
London on December 2nd, concerning the working of the property for
the month of November. He statep
that the mine Bhipped 4870 tons
during the 30 days, but this total
will not be found published in Mr.
Macdonald's newspaper for the
period mentioned.
The manager adds that the groBS
values recovered amounted to $95,-
500, and that the cost of production
was (1) Cost of mining£fl5,250,
(2) Cost of smelting, $40,250,
making a total of $55,500, and
leaving a net profit for the month
$40,000.
These figures show that the cost
of production was about $11.40 per
ton, and to this must be added the
cost of refining. The average cost
of production for the year ending
June 30th, last, was $9.34. Mr.
Frecheville declared that $9.00 was
to be the outside figure in future
for Le Roi ore and Manager Mackenzie has pledged his reputation
that the cost, under capable management, will not exceed $7.50 per
ton, and may be reduced to  $7.00.
On the small tonnage sent out
by Le Roi No. 2 the difference between $7.50 and $11.40 per ton
amounts to over $18,000 a month,
or $216,000 a year, and it iB only
the high grade ore sent down that
could stand the charge made.
Mining and smelting according
to the figures given by the manager
can hardly be said to be successfully carried out under present
conditions in Le Roi No. 2.
CONSTANT WHINING.
The Nelson Miner can hardly
be said to be unduly influenced
aga inst mine managers generally
yet it has this to say about CJood-
erh am, Blackstock & Co., and the
War Eagle-Centre Star mineB.
"Moreover, we believe that there
are a number of mining men in
t his province who, were they given
the opportunity, could lake charge
of the Centre Star and make it
yield a satisfactory profit. It 'is
always the incompetent who makes
excuses for their shortcomings and
who endeavor to throw the blame
where it does not belong.
"It would have been much better for the mining industry if the
Gooderham-Blackstoek Byndicate
had never embarked in miniDg
here. The constant whining,
which they in some way have influence enough to have published
and which has weight apparently
with some people, has done much
more harm to the country than
the money which they have invis-
ted in mining has benefited it.
They should have stuck to the
business in which they made their
money, the manufacturing and
Belling of whiskey. They appear
to much better advantage as vendors of stimulants than as
mining magnates."
NOTES AND COMMENTS.
The starting of work upon the
Kootenay mines was generally regarded as a mild bluff of Barney's
as it is not understood that the
company has sufficient available
funds to go on with. The closing
of the mine, therefore, has excited
but little comment here.
An outpost sentry who was not
much acquainted with the appear-
pearance of his officers was  visited
by one of them one misty night.
"What are you doing here?" said
the officer, "What's that to you?"
said the sentry, leveling his rifle,
"and I'll shoot if you dont, give me
thebloomingcounterfoil."—London

Another horrible example of the
tobacco habit comes to light in
Hamilton. Not long ago we noted
the death of a gentleman in Utica
at the age of 119 who had used tobacco—to say nothing of whiskey—
all his life. Now we read of a
brisk lady of 100 years of age in
Hamilton, who smokes her pipe
with huge enjoyment still, after an
indulgence of nearly a century of
the soothing weed. Girls take
warning!—Brockville Times.

I cannot tell vou how thankful I feel
for the gqpd derived from it. I was a
slave, chained with putrid sore throat
and Asthma for ten years. I despaired
ol ever being cured. I saw your adver
tisement for tbe cure of this dreadfu

COMMENT
Mr. Frecheville's Failure
to Settle the Labor
Trouble.
PERFECTION
25 Cases of Perfection Scotch Whiskey Just $
—i , '-— tr
Received.  The Whiskey that made Scot-   j
land famous.  Harry Mcintosh, Sole Importer, ft
The Hoffman House
Wishes its many friends and patrons
a Merry Christmas and a Happy and
Prosperous New Year. &&  53? 96*
Shareholders and the public alike
are disappointed at the report made
by Mr. Frecheville upon the Le
Roi mine. This is not to be
wondered at, for statements cabled
by him read more like admissions
drawn from an unwilling witness
that broad professional opinions
given by a competent mining expert. We do not desire to question
Mr. Frecheville's motives, but we
are fully justified in doubting his
capacity to fill the "large order"
entrusted to him by his fellow-directors.
It was always understood that
the first duty of Mr. Frecheville
when visiting Rossland was to
restore harmony, or at least attempt to do so between the mine
manager and the union laborers.
It does not appear that this gentleman made any effort whatever in
that direction; he deliberately ignored the subject, entering at once
into the more genial task of
"sampling" the various levels of
the mine. This was his first error,
wrecking the foundation of the entire superstructure. Had he used
common place diplomacy, had he
put forth any exertion or extended
the olive branch to men quite prepared to meet him more than half
way—judging from statements
made by the local press and not
yet refuted—we submit had Mr.
Freeheville adopted this policy-he
would bave been in a position to
utilize skilled labor in the Le Roi
mine and skilled labor at the
Northport smelter. * * * That
would, it seems to us, have been
the proper and practical method—
but perhaps Mr. Frecheville will
be able to explain to shareholders
when he returns his reason for do-,
ing otherwise.—Colonial Goldfields
Gazette.
AN XMAS GREETING.
Toronto Mull nnil Empire'! Good Wilh-
es tor Hi.- Woit.
The Mail and Empire of Toronto, has issued a Christmas greeting
to Canada. Referring to British
Columbia, the paper says:
A Merry Christmas to British
Columbia; land of beauty and of
gold, the advance guard of Canada
on the Pacific; mountain habitat
of lordly trees, and rivers that
teem with fish. Both to you and
to your neighboring provinces has
the East given of her best, and on
Christmas Day many a son and
daughter ot Ontario, of Quebec and
the Maritime Provinces, who have
made their home with you, will be
thinking of the places where they
were born. With one hand you
reach out to the mysterious and
age-worn Orient With its strange
million*; with the other you hold
mineral treasures that will last the
world for a long procession of centuries. Our best wishes for you in
the midst of your problems and
your progress, and especially in
your efforts to realise and carry
out the historic traditions of the
land from which you sprang.
To the whole Dominion, therefore, and to those of all nationalities who are helping to bui d its
prosperous future, and who therefore find themselves not strangers
but welcome citizens, we extend
the best wishes and congratulations
of this festive season.
