BLAMES THE ORDER AND PARTY No Room for Him in the Conservative Party—Knifed by Orang«J Leaders. a Toronto, Oct. 10.—Referring editorially to the death of Hon. Clarke Wallace, the World, Independent Conservative, significantly remarks that the late comptroller of customs, according to doctors, died of pernicios anemia, but he also died of a broken .heart, and what broke his heart were two things. First, the discovery that there was no room in the Conservative party for a member of parliament in Canada who was of strong Protestant and British principles and disposed to assert the same; and, second, lhat there were leaders in the Orange order who *ere ready to sacrifice their principles for the sake of the Conservative party and were ready to knife him because of the principles he asserted.

New York, Oct. 10.—Howard M. Shepard, of Brooklyn, the Democratic nominee for mayor of Greater New York, in accepting the nomination, said among other things: "I promise you and the Democratic party of this city and its entire people, if my nomination be ratified at the polls, that from the 1st of January, 1902, until the end of 1903, the police commission of the city of New York will, if I shall live so long, barring interference from Albany, practically enforce the standard which the mayor himself, upon his whole conscience and in view of his own undoubted power and responsibility, sets up for police administration." For himself, Mr. Shepard said he believed that a competition for the mayoralty between Seth Low and himself will not, on the whole, be calamitous to any real interest of the American metropolis or its people. Nevertheless he thought it clear that the best interest of the city and good government required Mr. Low's defeat. In conclusion he said: "I am a Democrat through and through, and therefore I believe in personal liberty, not license for crime or vice." We have a large stock of grapes for jelly making; 85c a box. Paulson Bros. FISHERMEN NOT GUILTY Jurors Refused to Follow Judge's Instructions. VERDICT CREATES A SENSATION Mr. Justice Drake Charged Very Strong Against the Accused But the Jury Found in Their Favor -Other Trials. Vancouver, Oct, 10.—The first of the cases against the Fraser river fishermen, who last season took part in the strike, was con eluded at the assizes late last night. Six fisherman were charged with carrying firearms with intent to disturb the peace, and the jury after being out an hour and a half brought in a verdict of "not guilty." The verdict created a sensation in court. This was the first of thirty indictments, and the crown made every effort to prove the oases as strongly as possible. Mr. Justice Drake charged very strongly against the prisoners, going to the extent of ridiculing their defence. There is a probability that if tbe juries here will not convict, the oases will be taken up the country for trial. AN AWFUL CHARGE Woman Said to Have Caused Death of Fourteen Persons.

The last supposed victim was her sister, Mrs.- Anna Pugh, who died a week ago under mysterious circumstances. An autopsy performed at the request of Mrs. Whitmer's mother, ivho. came from Detroit, is said to have disclosed the presence of arsenic and copperas poisoning in the stomach.

GOLD IN ARIZONA Rich Find in the Oaluso Mountains. . TEN THOUSAND TO THE TON Located 71 Miles North of. Tuscon— Story of the Fleming Brother! Said to Be Authentic. Tuscon Arizona, Oct. 10.—Charlea R. and Porter W. Fleming pf thia place have arrived here from the Galuso mountains, where they report a remarkable discovery of gold. The rich find is located 71 miles north of Tuscon and the vein 11 ore, ace rding to the Flemings, is 200 feet wide and 6000 feet in length. A canyon cuts through the vein, exposing the ore on either side the full length of the cut. The Flemings assert that from the bottom of the canyon to the surface the outcroppings of ore will run from $5000 to $10,000 to the ton. They estimate the amount of gold ih sight at the enormous sum of $7,000,000. The Tuscan Star at thia plaee is authority for the statement that the story by the Flemiug brothers is authentic and that it is verified by the facts as above given.

The fire insurance companies are among the latest corporations to come together. The Phoenix Assurance company of London, England, founded over 100 yearB ago and one of the oldest insurance companies in the world has amalgamated with the Atlas Fire Insurance company, also of London, and an old and well- known corporation. In Canada the business of the Quebec Insurance company has been taken over by the London and Lancaster Fire Insurance company. The policies of the Quebec will be guaranteed by tbe London and Lancaster, and the Quebec is to be maintained for the present at all events as an independent company. The Quebec company was organized in 1818 and for years was the leading company in the Dominion. Its board of directors has included many prominent men and its stability has always been unquestioned. The present board will be qhanged, however, as the result of the amalgamation, but the head offices of the company will remain at Quebec, and the directorate will be composed largely of Quebec men. NOTES AND COMMENTS. Very instructive and very encouraging is the annual report of the New South Wales railways for the year ending June 30th last. After paying working expenses and interest (the latter calculated at 3.66 per cent., the average rate paid on the state debt), the commissioners had the pleasure of presenting the treasurer with a surplus of £105,638. The New South Wales railways are now an object lesson. They show that good management can make a state system pay. Another phase of the New Sonth Wales success is the fact that it has been accomplished upon a basis of low charges to users and good wages to the staff. Miss Marie Joussaye of Kamloops. whoso poetic greeting to the Duke and Duchess of York we print today, sent King Edward a congratulatory poem on hiB coming to the Ihrone and His Majesty's secretary, in acknowledging the poem, stated in a letter to Miss Joubsaye that the King's son would bo in British Columbia this year and that the authoress waB to present herBelf to him. When thu Duke was in Vancouver Miss Joussaye, through the medium of the letter in question, obtained a private audience with the royal pair and presented the poetic address ne publish today. Should Sir Wilfrid Laurier decide to invite Mr. Ralph Smith to join his cabinet, thc choice would be a wise one, and would meet with the heartiest approval in British Columbia.—Inland Sentinel. In a letter received by Hugh Guthrie, M. P., of Guelph, Hon. R. W. Scott explains that the date for Thanksgiving day was fixed so late because those ongagod in shipping objected to a holiday until after the canals had closed. The secretary of state intimated that "the 9th day of November will now be a holiday, and, therefore, jt was considered reasonable to postpone Thanksgiving day until after the closing of the canals." To say that energetic criticism of the trusts breeds murderous anarchy is an argument which the New York Sun puts forward more as a means of serving the objects of capital than of suppressing a sentiment that menaces law and order. —Toronto Telegram.

To the Citizens and Business Men of Rossland and Vicinity and to the General Public; 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 the situation in Rossland. YVe 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. Barnard 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 it 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 secure the 500 men necessary to start the smelter it will take twice that many, or seventeen and one-half months, to secure 1000 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 hjs drag net qver 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 Northport. 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 35. He claims to have shipped one carload on August if. That it was the highest in value of 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 will 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 - MM Mm •«> THE EVENING WORLD. ROSSLAND, B. C, OCTOBER io, 1901 LABOR'S GREETING: To His Royal Highness the Duke of Cornwall and York. Canada, 1901. GREETING!— Great is the ruler of bondBmen, great is the lord of the thrall, But first in a nation of free men our King is greater than all, This is the word of our greeting to the Heir of the British Throne, A greeting from loyal hearts and true, in the land of the northern zone, When the Queen of tlie"north Btands ready to welcome her future King; Make room in the ranks for labor, let toil her tribute bring. We know that only the statesman, the soldier, the scribe, the priest, The high and rich and mighty may sit at the royal feast, But we claim this right for labor, the right'to graBp your hand, To look in your eyes and Bpeak to you as man should speak to man; The right to tell of the struggle in the land of the northern zone, Where honest labor is ground in the dust and greed usurps the throne On the Island of Magna Charta near ancient Runnymede, A charter was signed by a British King that made us free indeed. Crumbled to dust is the royal hand tbat signed the great decree, Yet our Kings maintain unions this day tbat Britons shall be free, And we say to those who would make us slaves by the might of their gleaming gold, That the freedom given by God and King shall never be bought or sold. Long have we bowed beneath the terrible yoke of greed, oppression and wrong, And the cry of our souls went up to God, "How long? 0 Lordl how long?" And sometimes we wondered if God was dead, or if He had refused to hear The prayer of the people, but God has heard, and the hour is drawing near When greed and labor shall strive no more, and greed shall be overthrown, And the scales of justice shall balance at last and labor shall have her own. It is barely a score of years ago in the history of our land, Since ocean was wed to ocean by the railroad's iron band, And cities sprang up like magio in the wake of the rushing train, Antl the master reaped the yellow gold as the husbandman the grain, Until, sated at last, he stepped aside to bask in the Royal grace Bearing his harvest of golden grain, and—another filled his place. Think not that we breath roproach, or blame to that noble Mother- Queen; Ever within our loyal hearts we will keep her memory green. God's eye alone is swift to Bee the blood on Mammon's hand, And our Queen was only human, she did not understand. She never knew of. those free-born men Blaving their lives away, Striving to live as best they could on ninety cents a day. The years went by and the deed of shame was enacted once again, Years of hopeless and grinding toil to thousands of working men; Thousands of paupers throughout the land, but the world had no need to care So long as Mammon could point with pride to one moro millionaire, Until, at last, it came his turn to bask in the Royal grace. And ho stepped aside with his money-bags.and—another filled his place Once more the shameful story as told in former years; But the toilers had grown wiary of hunger, sweat and tears, So Ihey waited on the masters and told them in manly way They could not live on the paltry sum of ninety cents a day; And tho masters ceaBed a moment from counting their golden store, Pondered awhile, and then agreed to give them ten cents more. "Little is better than nothing" 'tis a bitter truth wo have learned. For a time they bent to the yoke again, but the hearts within tbem burned As they thought of their little children sent hungry and cold to bed, Strong men toiling from morn till night and their loved ones lacking bread, And they asked once more for a living wage, and another boon they craved, To be treated as British subjects and not as men enslaved. It was little enough tbey asked for, but is roused the master's wrath, And they sought lo sweep the unions forever from their path: The laws of King and people they calray set aside, And flooded alien labor through the country like a tide. They filled the land with refuse, the scum of all the earth, And paid them more than they refuBed to men of British birth. We swear, we kept our country's laws through all that bitter strife, When labor grappled with her foe and struggled for her life; But labor's strong arm conquered and they tell us it is the best, Since we have won the battle to let the matter rest. Yet one truth stands out plain and clear when all is done and said— The masters fought for millions, and the strikers fought for bread. They hold the country by the throat, men tremble at their nod; The King's laws have been set aside even as the laws of God; They have trampled on your father's laws, broken them one by one, And now they stand with outstretched handB to greet your father's son. Their chief will entertain you aB you travel through the land, And there are none to warn you of the stain upon his hand. Prince! We have told our story, do you wonder that we frown To see the King do honor to the hand that holds us down? You will eat the bread and drink the wine bought with his ill got gold, And your fath r's Bword will dub him knight, the same old tale retold; We road the future by the past, he will bask in the royal grace, Living at ease, while we starve and slave for the other in his place. Haye we no heroes, no statesmen, no genius in the land That only the sons of mammon shall sit at tho King's right hand? Since we have sworn to give our lives to save the King and crown, Why should the King heap favors in the hands that crush us down? Yet the favor of Kings thall not avail against labor's righteous ban. Whom the King delights to honor" we will honor—if we can. Not that we grudge him his title, for Buch things we do not care, Labor's true knights can afford to smile at the toy of a millionaire. Some souls are noble, some are mean, as nature hath decreed, If King and sword can amend her work we wish the task God speed;- Yet an empty title beBtowed by man must be a .riffling thing, In the eyes of a free born nation where every man is a king. Prince! We are only the working class.our ways and speech are plain, But the toil marked hand we offer you is free from crimson stein. On the honest hand of labor no royal eye need frown, It has built up thrones and empires, and sometimes pulled them down. And labor's love and loyalty is offered with her hand; You'll find no truer hearts than ours in all this goodly land. • And as for you, dear lady, our future King's fair wife! May heaven's choicest blessings go with you all through life. And when you reach old England's shore, a boon we ask of thee, Will you tell the King your father, that his people o'er the sea, Are proud to own as sovereign an honest, upright man, And will serve the good King Edward with willing heart and hand. Prince! will you swear an oath with us, pledging both heart and hand, Standing erect with level glance as man should speak to man? As you to your people are true and just, as you to your oath are true. True to our heritage and your trust, so we will be true to you; But another oath we have sworn to keep in the land of the Northern zone, Mammon shall rule no more in the land, and lahpr shall have her own.
