President Ed Boyce, of the Western Federation of Miners, haa had
himself interviewed in Salt Lake
City. He is on his way home from
a tour of the Western and Northwestern States. He declared that
lie it!.<S V ind more miners out of
work than at any time since 1893,
on account of the workings of the
trusts. The copper trust has hurt
Montana, he declared, while the
smelter trust had hurt every mining community. On account of
the decision to curtail the lead
output, a severe blow had been
dealt to the Coeur d' Alene, for example, while only a fraction of the
normal amount of work is being
done. The same is true everywhere else, he said. While he has
not been in Utah long enough to
investigate thoroughly, the conditions are generally better than
elsewhere.—Colorado Gazette.

Ottawa, Feb. 28.—The report of
tbe royal commission to enquire
into Oriental immigration, has
been made public so far as that
part of it relating to Chinese is
concerned. The case is admirably
presented, and step by step the
only logical conclusion to which
the evidence tends is stated with
all the irresistible force of absolute
certainty and conviction.
The report affords prima facie
evidence of the immense amount
of painstaking labor exercised by
the commissioners in sifting and
classifying the enormous mass of
material collected by them. Every
particle of evidence has been arranged in its proper order, duly
weighed and considered from every
standpoint, and in arriving at
their conclusions the commissioners have been impelled solely by
the sheer force of-overwhelming
testimony.
In the first chapter the scope
and nature of the enquiry are set
forth at length. Chapter II treats
of the Chinese immigrant and his
condition in China before emigrating to Canada is described with
fidelity. His condition in Canada
is given together with a statement
of the approximate number of
Chinese in British Columbia and
their several occupations. In chapter III the unsanitary condition
of the Chinese is treated of, and
chapter IV treats of the crime
statistics of British Columbia in
relation to Chinese. Chapter V
deals fully with the moral and religious aspects of the case, and the
next chapter is devoted to the consideration of the Chinaman as a
taxpaper and the proportion of
taxes paid by Chinese. The succeeding fifteen chapters deal exhaustively and specifically with
every trade and calling in which
Chinese are engaged.
Chapter XXII treats on public
opinion in British Columbia as to
tho desirability of excluding Chinese or restricting their immigra
tion. Chapter XXIIl! is an important one in that in it is considered Canada's trade with China
and the possible effects of exclusion upon Buch trade. In the next
chapter (XXIV) the anti-Chinese
legislation enacted in the United
States and in the Australian colonies is detailed, the following chapter treating of the effect of the exclusion law of the United Stales.
With all theBe several points before them the commissiors have
prepared a chapter (XXVI) containing a resume of the foregoing,
and in chapter XXVII and last,
entitled "conclusions" divided
into four parts, the whole question
is reviewed from the commissioners' point of view, the chapter and
report terminating with their findings give below.
The findings are prefaced by the
following quotation from the Minute   of Council    authorizing the
sion, setting forth "the representations made by the people and
legislature of British Columbia:"
"That the province is flooded
with an undesirable class of people
non-assimilative and most detrimental to the wage-earning classes
of the people of the province, and
that this extensive immigration
of Orientah is also a menace to
the health of the community:'
"That there is probability of a
great disturbance to the economic
conditions in the province and of
grave injury being caused to the
working classes by the large influx
of laborers from China, as the
standard of living of the masses
of the people in that country
differs so widely from the standards prevailing in the province,
thus enabling them to work for a
much less wage.
"That it is in the interest of the
Empire that the Pacific province
of the Dominion Bhould be occupied by a large and thoroughly
British population rather than by
one in which the number of aliens
would form a large proportion "
We find that these representations are substantially true and
urgently call for a remedy.
We also find that the increase of
the capitation tax from $50 to
$100 is ineffective and inadequate.
Your commissioners are of the
opinion that the further immigration of Chinese laborers into Canada ought to be prohibited.
That the most desirable and
effective means of obtaining this
end is bp treaty supported by suitable legislation.
That in the meantime and until
this can be obtained the capitation tax should be raised to $000.
The only point upon which your
commissioners could not agree is
the date when the capitation tax
of $500 ought to come into effect.
The chairman and CommiBsioner
Foley are of the opinion that the
capitation should be raised to $500
I at once, while Commissioner Munn
is of opinion that $'100 should be
imposed for two years, and if a
prohibitive treaty be not obtained
within lhatperii.il, that it then be
raised to $500.

Yesterday, says the Toronto Star
of February 25th, John Armstrong,
Chris Foley and . Thomas Vodden,
representing Toronto Typographical-Union No. 91, waited on Mr.
Blackstock, vice-president of the
Centre Star Mining company, regarding the recent strike in the
Centre Star and War Eagle mineB
at Rossland. As a result of the interview Mr. Blackstock agreed to
instruct the management to draw
no line between union and nonunion men.
Confirmatory of the above a letter was received here yosterday
from the above named committee
whicb, in writing of the above interview with T. G. Blackstock,
says:
"He gave us the assurance that
he would today write to Mr. Kirby
and request him to remove the
embargo against the union men at
present existing, or in other words,
that he would request Mr. Kirby
to announce to the boys that he
was prepared to let bygones be bygones, and that no further discrimination would be made against
members of the union."
The Toronto Globe's version of
the interview is as follows:
"Mr. Blackstock assured the deputation that he would lay the matter before the manager at the mines,
with a view to ending any discrimination that exists."
The gist of the foregoing was laid
before Manager Kirby this afternoon aud he was asked whether he
had received any confirmatory letter from Mr. Blackstock. Mr.
Kirby listened attentively and then
merely repliod that "he had nothing to say about the matter."

MINING PROFITS.
The question of the profits of
mining ie of supreme importance to
the future of the camp. If Rossland is to be in the future, as it has
been in the past, the chief centre of
mining in the Kootenays its preservation of that position must depend upon the profits that can be
made out of Rossland ore. What
are these profits?
According to the Canadian Mining Review of the January issue
the profit yielded upon the chief
mine of the camp, the Le Roi, cannot exceed six per cent, per annum. If this is true then the future of the camp looks gloomy for
few companies will go to the expense of a plant which will cost
anything from $100,000 to $500,000
on the possible chance of securing
six per cent, on the outlay.
Editor Bell gets at these figures
by assuming R. J. Frecheville's report to be substantially correct,
that the average value of the ore is
$11.75, and that the total cost of
mining and smelting can be placed
in the future at $9.00 per ton leaving a net profit of $2.75 per ton.
Now in the past the average cost of
production has been $10.08, but by
reducing expenditure Mr. Frecheville has come to the conclusion
that $9.00 will be the future rate.
lo that reduction of expenditure
Mr. Frecheville does not account
for the price of coke.
The Mining Review shows that
these values have been calculated
with copper at 16^ per pound and
proceeds to recast the calculation
with copper at 12 cents with the
result of leaving the margin of
profit at $1.53 instead of $?.75
He then takes the annual production at $200,000 tons and shows
that this will merely yield a profit
of $300,000, or six per cent.
But in another portion of the report is given the profits for the past
two years which figure, deducting,
the values of the ore dump, at
$527,000 and. $518,000 or a profit
of over 10 per cent., with the costs
of working at $10.08 instead of $9.
These figures, the record of actual
transactions.hardly square with the
hypothetical views of the Mining
Review even if the difference made
by the fall in copper, amounting to
$1.22 per ton, is added in. This addition does not reach the Bum of
the net profits noted nor does it
take in account the difference between $9 and $10.08, the old and
now costs of mining. If the values
have decreased with depth the
matter might be accounted for, but
hero R. .F. Frecheville's report
states that the ninth level has an
average value of $15.75,* four
dollars above tho figures conservatively given for the oro reBervo
in which this level is not included,
The only conclusion possible to be
arrived at is that Mr. Frecheville
was extremely conservative in his
valuations.
Next the Mining Review states
aB a factor of its conclusion that
200,000 tons per annum is the
capacity of the mine. It is at present putting out 5000 tons weekly,
and the late manager stated it had
a capacity of 7000 tons. At the
lower figure with copper at 12 cents
and no increase in the ore values
the profit would be nearly eight
per cent.
But Mr. Frecheville reportB the
cost of coke at $10 per ton, and
Bays there ,will be in the Bpring,
with the completion of a railroad
into Southeast Kootenay from the
eouth, a   reduction to $8.     As 25
tons of coke are used to 100 tons of
ore this reduction means an addition of 50 cents per ton to the
profits which, again taken on the
basis of the last calculation, now
will be seen to amount to over ten
per cent.
All this has been the adverse
view as Editor Bell admits but
with the black looking circumstances put in a fair light. Take
the converse of the case. Let it be
supposed that copper sells again at
15 cents, that the supply of coke is
no dearer at Northport than at
Greenwood, that is $5 per ton, that
the output iB 6000 tons weekly and
the value of the ore $12. On thiB
new basis of calculation, which is
by no means an unreasonable one
in view of the facts it can readily
be calculated that the profit instead
of being ten per cent, is really
twenty-one per cent. The reduction in coke means total charges
of $7.75, the price of copper at 15
cents instead 1 (U cents, means a
cut of 40 cents per ton in the profit
against whioh must be set an added
estimated value of 25 cents to partially make up for the extreme conservatism of Mr. Frecheville's figures.
With mines capable of yielding
such returns and with a settled policy as to labor and mining legislation, there should be no fear absolutely for Rosslands' future.

NOTES AND COMMENTS.
The proper course for the house
to persue at this juncture is to
agree to pass a redistribution bill
at once. The government can
then go to pieces or continue in
business, as may be. A dissolution before passing such a measure would be productive of no good
reBr.lt. There never will be a
properly representative legislature
until thiB is done.—Kamloops Sentinel.
It is hardly likely that the   gov
ernment of the country, in face of
the report presented by the Chinese
commission, will fail   to   pass   a
stringent law against Chinese im
migration.   It is extremely unlike
ly that there will be anything done
about Jap immigration, which   is
the worse of the two.     Ten   yeais
hence another commission will be
ready to sit.   However, one step at
a time.
A disgruntled correspondent of
the New York Herald is carping at
the use of the word "imperialist"
within the realm and says that the
"commonwealth" of Australia
shows that the tendency is the
other way. Now commonwealth
does not mean wealth in common
but does mean the general strength
or prosperity and iB applied nowa
days to states governed in the interests of the people and therefore
should not apply to states governed
in the interests of trustB. Impe-
rium simply means a government.
The two together mean government
in the interests of the people. The
Herald is asked to define "oligarch" and point out the difference
between that and an U. S. senator.

WAR EAGLE ORE
Mine Will Erect a Mill and
Concentrator.
FIVE DOLLAR ROCK WILL PAY
Cue Given to the Intentions of the
Management of the Old
Standby.
According to a statement published in the Toronto Mail and
Empire at the meeting of the
shareholders of the War Eagle,
hold last week, T. G. Blackstock is
reported to have eaid that their
mine had every prospect of being
able to market some of its low
grade ore. There was an intention
(which has been an open secret for
some years past) of erecting a suitable milling and concentration
plant upon the property and when
thiB was accomplished there was
no doubt that the War Eagle could
nnd a profitable market for its $5
ore.
Mr. Blackstock does not say
whether any part of the loan to be
made from George Gooderham is
to provide the funds for this undertaking, nor does he enter into. any
details of how much of this $5
rock is in siglit. Prom credible
Bournes, however, the Would is informed that the reserves of thie
rock existing in the mine are enormous in extent and that if the
plans outlined by Mr, Blackstock
are practical there is no doubt that
the War Eagle will be one of the
largest producers in the camp.
Mr. Blackstock admits that the
successful operation of this proposal is largely dependent upon
the price of coke.

WAGON ROAD.
Government lUctllWa Ita Mistake  Over
the Gazetting offloads.
Tn the last iBBue of the provincial
gazette appears fl notioe that the
gazetting of the Northport road
_;n_8 been altered so as to cover that
road up to Nevada Btreet.
UnoV the first notice that appeared '.lie road in question, which
is the ily thoroughfare from the
city leading to the west and south,
was only brought up to the Black
Bear, which meant that the city
would have been obliged to acquire
the right from the property owners
to have the road extended into the
city. Now that this has been accomplished the plan of improvements for the weBt end of the camp
C ,n go upon an approved plan.

SMELTER
No Flies on This  Story-
The Very Latest From
the Lardeau.
Joseph Ryan, barrister of Fergu
son, formerly of Rossland and Trail,
says the Nelson Miner.is a gueBt at
the Phair. The Vulcan smelter of
30 tons per day capacity he declares is finished and will be blown
in next week. C. W. McCrossan
and associates, who erected the
smelter, feel satisfied that there is
room for a still larger furnace and
have started the foundation for
another one which is to be of 100
tons per day capacity. Mr. Ryan
says that seven sacks of about 1400
pounds of ore was recently brought
to Firguson, which was extracted
from one of the Ophir-Lade group.
He claims that samples from thiB
ore gave as an assay $11,434 in
gold to the ton, which makes it, he
says, tho richest ore yet found in
the Lardeau. The Ophir-Lade
group is noted for its rich ore and
in a shipment made last Bummer
the first-claBB ore gave smelter returns of something over $700 to the
ton.
Hot Clam Chowder served with every
glass of beer at the Alhambra,
The Neepawa.
The net results of the last two
cars sent from the Neepawa were
$300 over and above all expenses
for the car, the smelter figures
showing 55 ozb silver, 57 per cent
silica and 1 per cent copper. This
ore was taken from the ledge and
shipped without any particular
sorting, and it has satisfied the
management that the vein will
ship almost in its entirety. The
property iB steadily improving
with the work being done and it
is felt now that tho whole 24 feet
of the vein will stand shipping in
bulk.

NOTICE.
Th e strike haB been settled a
the Le Roi mine, but it it is still
in force at the other mines as before.
Negotiations are being carried
on with the other mining companies of the camp which have been
effected by the strike but they are
not yet completed.
Working men in outside camps
are advised to keep away from
Rossland for the present,
as there are more union
men at the present time here
than can secure employment until
a nettlenient has been effected with
the other mining companies.
