DAMAGE BY A CLOUD BURST New Library—Contractors Will Not Bid—Railway Supplies Coming in at Westminster. Vancouver, Oct. 16.—News from the north by the Hating'8 passengers today was to the effect, that while the cold snap has caused small freezings of ice at Dawson, it was not expected that the river would finally freeze over for some time yet, A cloud-burst ocourred on upper Hunker creek and three feet of water suddenly flowed down carrying everything in sight, but doing comparatively little real damage. Kails and other supplies for the new line of railway from South Westminster to the mouth of Fraser river have been ordered from the old country by Captain McKenzie and others interested in the syndicate for the fast ferry to Victoria. The rails will arrive here in the spring and the work will be pushed early in the summer. Contractors are declining to put in tenders for the Carnegie library on the grounds that the building cannot be created for $40,000 as specified, but will cost $60,000.

There was a well attended session of the Rossland Liberal association in the board of trade rooms last night. The meeting was an interesting and exciting one throughout and generally there was a warm time. It is staled that Hon. Smith Curtis urged the members present to stand by tho alien labor act, and request the Liberal government to duly enforce it, and Mr. Curtis evidently had a large following present. Some of the members thought that the act would be inforced in due time, and opposed tho idea of moving in tho matter at this stage. After a long and somewhat heated discussion tho association decided to adjourn without taking any immediate action. The vote to adjourn was carried by a very small majority.

LATEST MORGAN COMBINE A Huge Steel and Fuel Trust to Be Formed. WILL BUILD SHIPS FOR THE WORLD Another Gigantic Consolidation Will Shortly Be Complete-Big Railway Interests Involved- Some Details. New York, Oct. 16.—The Journal and Advertiser today says that an industrial combination to consolidate the armour plate manufacture of thiB country, enter into the building of merchant and war ships for the world's trade and take over a large and growing export trade of the United States Steel corporation is about to be organized by J. Pierpont Morgan and his allies. The article then says that while no official details are obtainable that the project will not only consolidate many details of the steel and fuel business of the country, now separated, but also serve to bring in closer relationship their interests and the great railway interests controlled by the Vanderbilts and the Pennsylvania railroad. These interests are also to be closely allied with, if not made a unit with large interests of like character abroad and that the new company will be called the Anglo- American Co.

London, Oct. 16.—The reason that the war ollice declined the services of the young Canadian with a medical degree from a Canadian college, who wanted to return to South Africa, waB due to the fact that he had no English degree and was not registered.

O. box 558, Roas.and, B. C COAST POLITICS. Hon. Smith Curtis has returned to Rossland after very materially assisting in the defeat of J. C. Brown of New Westminster. The Rossland member is very outBpoken in his condemnation of the Dunsmuir Government, and he is of the opinion that the premier will be forced to resign once the provincial house meets. Mr. Curtis thinks that in the event of Mr. Dunsmuir's retirement a coalition government might be formed for the purpose of passing a re-distribution act and some other pressing matters, though. he does not seem very sanguine that the members who are opposed to the present government can agree among themselves on a temporary truce sufficient to paBB the necessity legislation. The program includes a general election, once the matters in question are disposed of, and Mr. Curtis adds that he hopes tha cr.Tpaiojn will be fought out on straight federal party lines. The Dunsmuir government have decided to hold on to office until they are driven out and as our member tells us that it is not proposed to hold a session until next April or May, many things may happen between now and next spring which will put a different aspect on the face of political affairs in this province. The World warmly sympathizes with Mr. Curtis' desire for an energetic government policy which will assist in permanently developing the resources of British Columbia, and any step which will tend to hasten such a state of affairs will, we are sure, meet with the approval of Rossland people even if they have to undergo the delights of a general election. NOTES AND COMMENTS. Has any reason—good or otherwise—been mentioned why the Le Roi companies should be the only working mining corporations today in British Columbia who refuse to pay muckers $3 per day? The testimony of correspondents who have travelled from end to end of Canada with the royal party is tbat Toronto's welcome as a whole surpassed the demonstrations in any other Canadian city.—Telegram. Canada's loyalty is not of the foudal type. The loyalty which spoke in cheers from the throats of free men, women and children meant something higher and nobler than the loyalty of the liege man to his foudal superior.—Telegram. Wc respectfully suggest the name of Mr. Albert Geiser for the vacant Le Roi directorship. To quote a recent paragraph, "his intimate knowledge of the mine workings could not fail to be of great assistance to London board and the shareholders generally." porting the London-Australia mails illustrates the enterprise of the managements of these roads in the speed maintained for long distances, and t"he wonderfully perfect syBtem which enables a car to be sent whizzing across the continent over connecting but separate lines. The contract mentioned was secured by demonstrating that the time from Sydney to London oould be reduced seven days, as compared with the time required by the route through the Suez canal; and as a result, the British mails from its largest colony, embracing both official and private matter, will hereafter cross the United States on route.—Post-Intelligencer. Sir Charles Elliott, who is visiting in Canada, is the chief director of the railway system in Cape Colony, which is operated by the government. They have no deficit there. They have no favoritism. The government railways are operated as any other business—upon business principles. The railways pay six per cent profit. There are some two thousand miles of railway in the country. All the lines are single. The equipment approximates to that which prevails in Canada, but the rates are higher. First olass is three-pence per mile, second twopence, and the third one penny. Suburban traffic is cheaper, and where there are waterways there are reductions. The Rossland Miner eulogises and appreciates the meritsof unionism, since it carries the union label at the head of its editorial column; but, further down the column, and, indeed, throughout the entire paper, iu puts forth its best efforts to discredit this same unionism.

Citizen and Country stands for compulsory arbitration first, last and all the time, and invites any delegate of the Dominion Trades Con gress who opposes it to discuss the question in these col- urns.

C, Sept. 5th, 1901. 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. 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 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 ta 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 -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 25. He claims to have. shipped one carload on August 2(. 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. MJ 1 HE EVENING WORLD, ROSSLAND, B. C, OCTOBER 16, 1901 A BANK SCHEME Australian Financier and State Banks. NOWADAYS WE KNOW BETTER Thought Too Revolutionary at One Time —Cheap Money for Everybody. Experiences in tho past have revealed the incompetence and lack of consideration to the public by the banks,'ond recent experiments in State management have shown how very much better the State can run the banking business. When the Bank of New Zealand and the Queensland National Bank failed, the governments of the respective colonies were implored to come to the rescue. And the governments did so with gratifying results. The Bank of New Zealand, which lost £37,346 in its last year of private management, made a splendid profit of 1242,520 for its last year under State management, In like manner the Queensland National Bank, which lost £37,033 in itB last year under private management, made a profit during its last year under modified State control of £54,788. It muBt not be forgotten that in each case the profits were less than they should have been on account of the mass of non-profit-earning assets left behind by the imbecile private management. It iB a pity that the governments of New Zealand and Queensland did not take over the banks in time, instead of merely nursing them into solvency. The scheme seemed too revolutionary a few years ago; but nowadays we know bettor. N The State bank idea is no novelty. France has for yearssuccess- fully conducted a State bank, to the great benefit of her agricultural population. Land banks, either State or otherwise, have existed for many years in Germany, Austria, France, Russia, Norway, Sweden, Denmark, and other countries. In fact, the time has come when no State with a civilized land system is complete without them. South Australia and Victoria have State land banks run on liberal lines which are proving eminently useful institutions. The experience of Maoriland and Queensland, to say nothing of very many yoars of experience ln Europe, has shown that the State can run a banking busi ness safely and profitably, and furnish a more secure place for the deposit of the people's money than any private institution can offer. Not being obliged to earn heavy dividends for shareholders, a State bank can afford to lend money cheaper than any private institution. With only H or 4 per cent, to pay on its capital, and limitless credit on the security of the State lands and reproductive works, the State bank can become a handsome source of revenue.— Brisbane Worker.
