COMING AT IT BY DEGREES The Nelson Tribune's View of the Frisco Man's Latest Utterance on the Strike Situation. has gone to on his way was interviewed Henry Bratnober San Francisco, and through Spokane by the Review. This morning the Nelson Tribune has this to say on the situation: When on his way back to San Francisco, Henry Bratnober waB interviewed in Spokane by the Spokesman-Review. Among other statements made by Mr. Bratnober, he stated the Le Roi company had no objections to the men belonging to the union. "We only ask that they shall not agitate on the company's ground. If we can get a good class of miners and muckers in the Le Roi, it is possible after a time the company would pay $3 a day for muckers. But that wise in wages, if it should be made, would come from the company of its own accord, and would not come in acquiescence to the demands of the union."

Editor Ivbsino Wokld. Sir:-r-P_ease allow m« space in your valuable paper for a few remarks regarding the situation of affairs in our city since the present labor troubles have been thrust upon us by a corporated company, managed by Bernard Macdonald. It has been said, whether truthfully or otherwise, that thiB deplorable state of affairs has been brought about by the agitators of the miners' union of this city. Let us see. It is a well known and an undisputed fact, that previous to the strike declared by the union here, it was almost impossible for a member of the union to be a permanent resident of this city or make a home for himself and famj ily. He knew not at what moment he might be discriminated against by the management, and have to seek employment elsewhere, disposing of his home and property at a saorifioe, to quench ths malice of his employer. In a word, Mr. Macdonald has endeavored to make transients of the laboring class of people who sought a home in Rossland, discharging and hiring them to suit bjr*} own purpose. In the name of common sense let me ask, of what use to a thriving, industrious, well governed oity are transient labor- era? There are a goodly number of them here now, herded and guarded by those who make a business of it, and they have proved themselves to be a law breaking class of people. Rossland, our once flourishing city, has been of wages of the country, provided the men will take it as a voluntary raise made by the company. Tlie men are. probably not aching to split hairs over fine points with the Le Roi management, and would be willing to go to -work at any time if guaranteed that they would be paid the wages paid in other camps in the country. Mr. Bratnober also said that the company had no more objection to the men belonging to a "union than a. church or a secret society." Mr. Bratnober's statements, taken in Wiwta with the statement WAfa rV. *tV Governor Mackintosh, who arrived in Rossland yesterday after having met Mr. Bratnober in Spokane, that he would start work on the Giant mine at once, and that he would pay the men the standard wages prevailing in other camps, would indicate that a settlement is likely to be made at Rossland at no distant day. Of course, it is no easy matter for Bernard Macdonald to climb down; but then Bernard should be willing to eat a little crow, seeing that he will still be looked up to as a tin god by E. Blunderbuss Kirby and the other members of the Mine Owners Association.—Nelson Miner. Hot Weinerwurst served with every glass of beer at the Alhambra, Homer Pringle Dead. Toronto, Oct. 8.—Homer Pringle, at one time well-known in tbe telegraph business, was found dead in bed this morning. The gas was turned on, but death was believed to have been entirely accidental. Fait Si._ni.hli. Raa. Plymouth, Oct. 8.—The North German Lloyd steamer Kronz Prinz Wilhelm arrived here at § o'clock this morning from New York, Oct. 1st, having made the fastest maiden voyage on record, five days and nine hours and forty- eight minutes from Sandy Hook lightship. so**!*5 yery worst class of citizens found in the border towns and cities of the United States. Inalmost every instance, these men have been shipped in here by this company, to. take the place of honest, law- abiding Canadian citizens. Does the manager ever stop for an instant, to consider what harm he is d.ojng the city and citizens of Rossland, or is his malice so great against organized labor that it overpowers the common sense supposed to be possessed by an individual of his stamp? These off- NKUringg who are shipped in here, «»ld not buy a setting hen off her nest when they come. When they go they take the money earned on Canadian soil, and which should be circulated in Canada, back to the United States, where they gamble and dissipate until it is all blown, a fitting end for money earned under such base circumstances. Is it any wonder then Mr. Editor, that the miners' union and citizens in general would object to •uch a policy and state of affairs? Are they to stand idly by, and see law, order and progress thwarted by Bernard Macdonald and bis minions. The miners' union is doing what every good Canadian citizen should do, stand shoulder to shoulder for the welfare of his country, his fellow-citizen and his home. The worthy judge who sa upon the Beamish case, made objection to the large crowd of people walking on the streets and around the C. P. R. depot when he arrived in our city. Does that learned personage imagine that he, and our true blue chief ean prevent peaceable citizens from walking on the King's highway, or rather is he desirous along with Barney's other minions of preventing the union men and citizens from seeking out the dead-brokes who are shipped into Rossland directly against the alien labor law? It is apparent in the eyes of the public that something must be [Continued on Fourth page] GIANT NUTAIIT Hon. C. H. Mackintosh Back From the East.

Mr. Duke says the camp has now been moved to 23-mile post, and that the remaining portion of the road some two and one-half miles will be graded and completed in about three weeks time. All the hands employed were good, solid union men, which accounts in a large measure for the rapid progress made. Tbe most difficult part of the road has been built and the remaining portion is comparatively easy, it being possible to use a plow in the construction.

O. box 5581 Rossland, li. C GUN SCABS. It is difficult to imagine anyone in this community becoming"intensely enthusiastic over the prospect of scab supremacy in Rossland. The best of the class are poor substitutes for the standard miners we are used to meet and deal with. Naturally the motley crowd which the Le Roi management has gathered together for the purpose of making a show to impress the union men, contains some pretty tough characters, and the same may be said of the late arrivals at the Northport smelter. We have already experienced some of the joys the class of men referred to bring with them, and there is one thing at least the authorities can attend to before an "accident" happens resulting in serious injury or loss of life. Wherever the law has been fairly enforced in Canada the practice of gun-carrying has always been severely punished. Even in communities where business isrunning along in the ordinary course, and when no excitement prevails, such for instance, as usually accompanies an industrial dispute, it has been the common practice all over the Dominion to so administer the law as to practically prevent anyone except a police officer from carrying loaded weapons. But if the rule has been enforced during the piping times of peace so universally in Canada what shall we say about the manner of its enforcement under existing circumstances in Rossland? If the riff raff on the hill parade in the saloons and on the streets of the city with revolvers will not the ordinary Rossland miner think it necessary to meet his "friend" on even terms? Then all that is wanted to complete the details will be a little whisky, a few hot words and the doctors, the undertakers and the law will attend to the balance. Everybody will be virtuously indignant of course, and there will be columns of print explaining how it all happened. It would be wiser, would it not, to Btop tho fool business now. Prevention is usually better than cure, and the widow and the orphan won't exist and the shootng won't take place if the authorities simply do their duty. Will they do it? NOTES AND COMMENTS. The motto of Dunsmuirand Martin should be: "Divided we stand; united we fall."—The Silvertonian. It is not right to think that '•Willie" is fibbing, when hedoesn't smile. Dr. Sinclair says smiling is bad for him. If one thousand men are required to work the Rossland mines, would they not necessarily have to bring the State of Missouri to Rossland. Would it not bo easier to send Rossland down to Missouri? Dunlop, tbe "architect," of the new school house has resigned hiB position, and gone "scabbing on the Hill." To whose tender mercies will the constrution of the building now be handed over. Won't Trustee McCraney tako it up? A close inspection of papers published outside of Rossland fail to discover nny mention of thc gun scab incident here early on Sunday morning. If the Associated Press is to fairly represent both sides of the strike a dispatch should have been sent out in the matter. Had a couple of union men been arrested and found with loaded guns in their position the wires would have carried the news with great promptness. Suppression of factB is on a par with distortion and absolutety untruthful statements. Criticism of a magistrate's course of action and a strong protestagainst it is not necessarily abuse. Magistrates and judgeB often make mistakes and some times make very bad ones. There is nothing jn the penal code of Canada or in the ethics of good taste which prevents or should prevent plain speaking in such matters. Would any one defend the decission in the Costello-Cronyn case for instance and say it was "abuse" to protest very strongly against the final finding in that matter. Director Frecheville of the Le Roi Mining company.who came all the way from London, England, to investigate the affairs of the com pauy, says the men on strike at Northport and Rossland are obsti nate and nnreasonable, and that there will be no change in hiB company's attitude towards them. The men at Northport are obstinate in declining to surrender a right, that iB, the right to belong to a labor union. The men at Ross^ land are unreasonable because they want to be paid for their work tbe same wages that are paid in all other mining camps in the interior of British Columbia Director Frecheville may be misquoted, but the chances are he is not. He, like all other old country representatives of capital, has nothing in common with the peo pie of Canada. He, no doubt, would rather see our mines worked by Chinese and Japanese than by white men, if the employment of the Orientals would result in increased dividends to the old country holders of the Le Roi shares. Canadians need expect little from men li.e Frecheville. Instead, they should give men like Frecheville to understand that this country is run for the benefit of the people who live in it, and not solely for the benefit of absentees.—Nelson Tribune.

THE: Beal Situation. Rossland, B. C, Sept. 5th, 1901. To the Citizens and Business Men of Rossland and Vicinity and to the General Public t The Le Roi mine manager has been circulating a report that the strike here is practically at an end and the mines are about to resume. This report has been taken up by their organ, the Morning Miner, and sent out over the country as a true report of thc situation in Rossland. We have made a careful analysis of the situation here and believe that no impartial reader can see much reason for the joyful enthusiasm which Mr. Bernard Macdonald and his paper profess to feel. For three and one-half months the strike has been in force at Northport. The greatest claim Macdonald or Kadish have ever made during that time is that they have been able to operate two of the five furnaces at the smelter. It is only a question of simple arithmetic to see that if it takes three and one-half months to start two furnaces, it will take eight and three-fourths months before they can have the smelter in operation. Now, if it takes eight and three fourths months to the 500 men necessary to start the smelter it will take twice that many, or seventeen and one-half months, to secure iooo men for the mines in Rossland. Or, at the end of twenty-six and one-half months, if Macdonald has the same success he claims to have had thus far at the smelter, he will be in a position to work the mines. No one can deny or dispute that Bernard Macdonald has left no stone unturned to secure men for the smelter at Northport. He has cast his drag net over the states of Minnesota, Colorado, California, Oregon, Missouri, Montana, or, practically, over the entire country west of the Mississippi river, and has been able to start but two of the five furnaces at the Northport smelter. This is the success he boasts. He claims the strike is at an end. It has only begun. So far we have taken as true his statements that he has two furnaces in operation at Northpqrt. We wished to prove how futile are his statements by his own evidence. The real truth is he has never had two furnaces in successful operation at one time for 24 hours. They have produced no matte for shipment up till August 25. He claims to have shipped one carload on August 11. That it was the highest in value ai any shipment made. The records of the railroad at Northport fail to show any trace of matte shipments on or about August 21, If any shipment was made it was via the Columbia river route and rests at the bottom of the river. . He also claims to be able to start the mines in Rossland. Apparently he does not realize there is an alien act in Canada, for of the 30 employes now at the mines all but two have been brought here in direct violation of this law and; will be deported inside of two weeks. He has in eight weeks been able to secure but two scabs in Canada. Now, if the Canadian people should, to his surprise, enforce their laws, even if it does hurt the feelings of Bernard Macdonald, how long wltt it take to start the mines at the ratio of two every eight weeks? And as yet there is not a miner in the lot. We are not deceiving the miners of Rossland by false promises. We hope for an honorable settlement of the difficulties here. The sooner the better it will suit the union miners of Rossland. But if it is necessary to continue this fight to its final end the union miners and smeltermen will stand shoulder to shoulder for carrying on the fight. This war was forced on these unions. We entered the struggle full of a belief in the justice of our cause and confident of our ability to carry it successfully to an end. This belief has never been shaken for an instant, and certainly is not when we consider the almost unbroken line of successes which have thus far attended our efforts. EXECUTIVE BOARD ROSSLAND MINERS' UNION No. 38, W. F. M ^B____ THE EVENING WORLD, ROSSLAND, B. C, OCTOBER 8, iopi BOUNDARY WILL HELP How the Rossland Strike Is Regarded to Phoenix and Greenwood. Greenwood, Oct. 8.—(Special.) Local labor unions, especially the' miners', have followed with interest the fight between the Ros_land Miners' union aud its sister organization,the Smelter union at North- port, Wash., and the Le Roi company. Everyone feels that it is now a fight to the bitter end. So far as the two Miners' unions in the Boundary, numbering a combined membership of over 1000, are concerned, they are ready and willing, when the call comes from headquarters to contribute substantial aid to the cause of their brothers in Rossland. Both the Phoenix and the local organization are in financially good shape, and there is not a man in the big mines that is not in the ranks. Speaking of the situation ao far as it affects the Boundary, Mike Kane, secretary of Greenwood Miners' union No. 22, said: "The struggle going on in Rossland promises to last for some time. Should the Le Roi ultimately win, there is a possibility of the mine owners in the Boundary district attempting to reduce the present scale of wages. Al present I am glad to say there is the utmost harmony between the wage earner and his employer, and I see no reason why this should not continue. "Regarding the Rossland strike our utmost sympathy is with the men, and this is not all. Up till now, the officers of the Western Federation of Miners have made no call for financial assistance. That call may be made any day, and I can assure you when it comes it will be met gladly and promptly, for there is not a man belonging to either the Phoenix or local union who will not willingly and ungrudgingly donate bis proportion. The two unions are in splendid shape, ahd will do all they can to maintain and uphold what we consider a fair and proper wage for services rendered." COMMUNICATION. Editor Evening World.

Forty-pound boxes of pears ♦! .50 per box at Paulson Bros. tf. PROBABLY THE LAST real agitators? To begin with I would name Bernard Macdonald as the greatest one. We can easily see through the "Horn scheme" as an agitation, and a similar incident following it very closely gave it dead away. The next on the list waB the shipping in of alien labor to cause agitation and trouble between them and the union men. Following this the Gibson and Walsh fracas, but no doubt Gibson mistook his man. Next comes our noble chief of police, handcuffing a quiet, inoffensive citizen after sentence had been passed on him, and making a public exhibition of him by marching him down the principal' street in our city in full view of his many warm friends. If this was not calculated to create a serious dis turbance and agitation, it would not have fallen short of it in any other city in the land. In conclusion, Mr. Editor, would say that the miners' union has behaved itself in a fair and principled manner and justly depend on the support of all thorough business men and citizens of Rossland and community, leaving unbiased and principled men to judge which is right and who are the real agitators.
