MUST FIGHT FOR OUR LIBERTY
An Army of 100,000 Men to Fight
for Labor's Cause—Help in the
Hour of Need.
Pittsburg, Aug. 8.—With the issuance of the general strike order
of President Shaffer it is not any
longer a,theory that confronts the
public, hut an actual condition.
As far as Pittsburg is concerned,
although it is the headquarters of
thc Amalgamated association, few
men are immediately involved in
the strike in comparsion with other
sections, the total number throughout the country being almost 100,-
000 men.
Following is the text of President
Shaffer's call to the members of
the Amalgamated association:
"Brethren—The otlicials of the
United States Steel Trust have
refused to recognize as union men
those who are now striving for the
right to organize; The executive
board has authorized me to issue a
call on all Amalgamated men in
name and heart to join in the
movement to light for labor's
rights. We must fight or give up
forever our personal liberties. You
wiH be told that you have signed
contracts, hut you ni'ver agreed to
surrender those contracts to the
United* States Stpel Corporation.
Its ollicers think you were sold to
them just ns the mills were, contracts and all. Remember, before
you agreed to any contract you
took an obligation to the Amalgamated association. It now calls
you to help in the hour of need.
Unless the trouble is settled on or
before Saturday, August 10th,
1001, the mills will close when the
last turn is made on that day.
Brethern, this is the' call to preserve our organization. We trust
you and need you. Come and help
us and may right come to a just
cause.   Fraternally yours.
T. J. Shaffer.

A. Klockman of the International returned Tuesday from a visit
to the Continental group in Northern Idahojust south of the international boundary line, owned by
Mr. Klockman and considered
to be one of the most valuable in
the Beotion. Mr., William Roberts of kelson has examined the
property in the interest of a syndicate of Duluth .ijp^liUists who
contemplate purchasing it.
Mr. Klockman said: ' "The
Continental is a high grade silver-
lead proposition; indeed, experts
declare that the ore will yield
a net profit of $25 per ton after
'paying for mining, transportation
and treatment. They tell me that
there is about $175,000 net profit
in the ore which is now in sight.
With a view of getting the ore to
the market I am having a road
constructed from the mine to the
Kootenay river, at a point opposite
to Port Hill, Idaho. The' road
should be completed by the fall
and shipments can be made this
winter. I am putting in a steam
plant and before long will have a
machine drill at work. This will
facilitate operations to a considerable extent, so that when the road
is completed there will be plenty
of ore for shipment."

THE LONDON MEETING
The Spokesman-Review is evidently under the impression thai
the situation here and at North-
port was to be cleared up yesterday by a meeting of the director.-
of the Le Roi company in London.
An extraordinary general meeting of the shareholders of the Le
Roi .Mining company or thc Rossland Great Western company—the
organization which took the place
of the defunct British America
Corporation so far as the four mining companies in this camp are
concerned—was called for August
7.1 fair tbe express purpose of considering the situation here and
taking some action.
News was received here late lasl
week that for some reason' the
meeting had been postponed until
tbe 15th inst. and the hope is expressed here that on next Wednesday some decisive step may be
taken in London in the real interests of the suffering shareholders. At the last meeting of the
Le Roi shareholders when it was
decided to pass the looked for dividend, no action of any kind was
taken to reorganize the directorate.
Since that meeting tho slorm
which was then threatening
Whittaker Wright and his friends
has burst over them with greal
violence and .the English papers
have heen filled with the unsavory
details of the London and Globe,
the Standard and the British
America Corporation mismanagement. Fraud has b en openly
charged and the affairs of all three
companies have been undergoing
judicial investigation.
For some months a struggle has
been in progress among the stoek
jobbing element to obtain the control of at least the Le Roi company if not of the rest of the group,
with what success no one seems to
know. Tt was charged, and, the
truth of lhe charge has heen pretty
generally admitted, that the war
waged by Manager Macdonald
against unionism has all along
had its foundation in the struggle
for control mentioned. Mr. Mcdonald's vigorous protest to the
contrary only served to confirm
the opinion held by every one in
this camp who has followed at all
closely the peculiar course of events
here and in London.
Presumably in time we will get
at all the actual facts of the case
and some startling developments
ma}' be looked for. It does seem
an outrage that a hard working
community like Rossland should
be I1"* by the ears and ruin brought
to thu duor of many a merchant all
because some gentlemen in London
wish to make a haul hy questionable, if not openly dishonest
meant.
If tbe Le Roi shareholders consult their own interests and send
out here a couple of shrewd business men to thoroughly investigate tbe situation, the strike will
iu settled very promptly and Rossland will once more progress and
prosper.
If, however, the London board
of tbe Le Roi company presuming
that it in eventually composed of
honest directors, obtains all its
information from tbe management
here, the strike will he a bitter and
protracted one indeed and no one
can guess when it will end.
NOTES AND COMMENTS.
The Tribune, not being acquainted with the conditions that existed
in the Coeur d'AlcneB either prior
to or since the blowing up of liie
Bunker Hill mill, cannot give an
opinion as to the rights of the
wrongs of the two parties ehgaged
in that dispute. But the Tribune
does know that tho members
of the miners' union in British
Columbia aro just as law-abiding
and just as good citizens as are tbe
men who employ them, and when
Bernard Macdonald's personal organ, the Rossland Miner, attempts
to blacken their reputation by reprinting column after column of a
report that tbe governor of Idaho
made to the secretary of war, he is
not acting the part of a good citizen. The people of British Columbia will judge miners' unions
by their actions in British Columbia. So far, they have been law-
abiding organizations; and Bernard
Macdonald's newspaper is no more
justified in beginning a campaign
of detraction against tbe miners
and miners' unions of this province
than it has to commence such a
campaign against the printers and
printers' union of British Columbia. Bernard Macdonald has been
credited with having brains, but
he has evidently been overrated,
for no man with ordinary common
sense would willfully slander a
class of men without whose aid
mining could not be made a profitable industry.—Nelson Tribune.
Law is administered queerly in
the United States and an elective
judiciary is responsible for some
of the results arrived at. In Washington the authorities have been
trying to execute a convicted murderer for the past ten years or more
and at length it seems probable
that the majesty of the law will be
at last vindicated and the criminal
hanged. Our own system is by
no means perfect, but it is not
possible in Canada to evade the
law as it is done openly in every
state in the union. If respect for
the law and its administrators is
wanting in the Stales, there are
good reasons for   the omission.

of Canada will be held in the city
of Brantford, Ont., commencing on
Tuesday the 17th of September.
All labor organizations In ihe Dominion have been invited to send

and maintaining a hopeless struggle for a one man supremacy. No
doubt the British shareholders
have been deceived, no doubl
scores of cables and letters have
represented the men at the North-
port smelter works as virtual desperados, and tho miners iii Rossland as pirates who not only demand exorbitant wages, but also
claim the right to say who is to be
employed and who shall or shall

Bernard Macdonald deceived
people whose steward he was;
what will they say when tho general meeting takes place? We remember the parable of the unjust
custodian of many treasures. But
after all will Bernard Macdonald
know when he is turned town? We

Dear Sir:—If it takes 280 scabs,
40 scab herders, a half dozen U. S.
marshals, a score of scab hunters,
the assistance of several railroad
companies, their superintendents,
one general manager, one newspaper, two editors and one supreme
court judge to run one tame furnace; what will it take to run a six
furnace smelter full blast?

Sir:—At the least calculation it
is costing the Le Roi companies
and British investors $.r>0,000 per
month to maintain the Macdonald
and Kadish lock-out and strike.
Who are these men that they
should dare to gamble with Buch
great interests? Who are they,
and how much money have they
invested in British Columbia?
They never were known as great
mining authorities or smelter ex-
peits, and all contracts, wood,
mine supplies, insurance, etc., are
given to aliens and alien establishments, whilst tbe wives and children of miners are made to feel the
result of what promises to be their
very brief authority.

Dear Sir:—It is a blessing there
remains one newspaper in Rossland, and who have we to thank?
The unions. And yet Mr. Bernard
Macdonald seeks to gag the press,
to control its Utterances, and utilizes capital that might go to meet
the fair demands of labor, for the
purpose   of   buying   a  newspaper
