COMMUNICATIONS. .This, paperowill not be responsible lor opinions cespressed by its correspondents. 'To Tho Editor:-, ° . Dear Sic—1' would.* beg* leave .for the use" of your valuable paper to express an opinion on certain questions .which __ seem to ' be occupying •the attention of the working classes- of this'disU'ict aud those people'who' take any in.crest in the .social and economic , conditions prevailing iu this part Vi British Columbia. - In the first place I may say that I know that the "Free Press is the' property of the Crow's Nest Pass Coal Company,"'but ■ I also "know that it. owes a- duty to the general ' public, as well as to its proprietors, and I know,• also',' that"for the.."Free Press" to rciuse to give" publicity to both sides cf these questions, would instantly^mean 'ostracism 'by its most intelligent, readers.. ^However, " -I "'do' not doubt that that the' '''Free Press" will be unbiased in dealing with these questions and- thereby retain, -* at least, self-respect.- The" questions I have especial reference to -are some of the letters appearing in the'.."Free"' Press" and the^-'Fernie Ledger."-The .large influx^of , im- ., ported imtn?f.rants. into-=thls" part -is they like it. In. answer- I would quote Voltaire, who .when Puefondorf claimed slavery* was originally voluntary, demsnded a copy of; the first ccntract, declaring -that if that was so, he would find the- slave's name appended to the contract. It was' never produced. 'Backhands may like [stances than some '.'.-' QilSSI'li«ttSr'«Hu.ia.'..'.:u.Ml '■ M. had, and know by- experience that that is hartir, likely to be accomplished by a*, .over-stocked' labor' market. However here is "where I differ with Mr. Biggs." He advises men ,to stay jn England and not to come-to British Columbia, for fear' that we in British Columbia already fail' to maintain the privileges we, have. It is, ia my opinion, illogical and inconsistent to ask men, to stay in England whilst we enjoy the lib-' erties they, Lave' not. "I know I differ in opinion with a lot of miners* on this question, but liberty '- of speech 'nitjuns more to me, it is broader, deeper and more glorious than to say 1 think; what I think somebody else thinks. I believe in honest opin.on, right or wrong. ' I am an Englishman and know conditions here JaJilywell. England is cursed with caste.. A miner there is classed very little above-the .average hog, and even he.is in better* cirefum- f his- fellow- _causing~quTte ^^ensation~¥inong"~th-e" ' miners of this-district.'■■*__ ■-■•_• 7 -•'.■' ' The peculiar feature is that only "the C. N. P. C. 0. have to resort to - this-method of sending ■ out to England, etc., oi special agents to misrepresent ta - a certain extent the 'true Conditions which, prevail here. In Mr. Biggs: first letter he explained the situation at Fernie very thoroughly and to a considerable extent, and casually mentioned tbat conditions could not be so good In Michel ■ or there would not be such a scarcity of men as reported by the com- .'pany. Quito a natural conclusion* on the'part of Mr?'Biggs. It is refresh; , Ing to find at least'that some of tho' Fernie men understand part-ally the conditions at Michel. Somo little' time ago, when Michel men refused to go to work under tho conditions . impoBed upoD tnem by Mr. Sherman and : Minister of Labor ' McKonzlo Xing, some of the Fernio .union ol- . tlcinh declared that the Michel men ' were being led away hy someono with personal feelings and, possibly perepnal aspirations. Tlmo has, however,. shown that tho Michel mon were on the right tratfk, and we are grateful to Mr. , Biggs for his con* coBBlon. Whan- we consider the conditions that now prevail iii tho met-, all fcrous district of British Colum- 'bin, ,,to«other with * tho conditions prevailing In the conl mines of Montana and Wyoming, U. B. A., which are, with Michel, etc., ln the same competitive field," I ask candidly, "Did Michel receive a square deal?" It is truo that somo men in Mlehel make fairly good wanes, but under what conditions do they earn tbem, and even arc' tihoy typical of tho gonornl earning capudty of the miners. I answer, most emphatically, "no." Thr* men who nre making wages that compare In any way lav- orahlo to thc wagon earned even In Alberta, arc men who work on the backhand Mjuton.; that Is, ono man working, l.vlnc nnd earning his Rood wages nt tho expense of tho poor slave (laborer) who works nloiiguldo of him, sharing the same Wanders ' and receiving just enough to keep body and soul together. The rcrnlnrn t,l llm "Free Press" enn •Judp-e how meny luxuries a mnn rat* * cd nt $2.50 per day can indulge In, In a closed town, taking Into con- Hldorntion, of course bis broken time, eta., which form on Important T<iTt tn nil rri.il rnlnpis T nm Rnrrv to Hoy that, awie of our most prominent union members and socialists think lt.no fltuj-rnce to practice this inhumnn syHt'em; men who in stentorian, tone announces that tbey are flsrhMng for the destruction of the cruel system of competitive- capital- !'lffm; men whose low for their fel- ' Tow-man 'Is-.'sq, overwhelming that ' th'ey do hot'hH.tate'to ttAct advant- hit ot tt.-^'frrstfjpsrl.on they.mwt*.! ' uhle.to.do Vol; ?t ••«• -WW jatd, Mr.* Bdltor, that ti'we bactluii&i do'not object to thU ivy-jltm, but ta.tl.-jc. A the system, but;, it has never been my privilege tb see any of those-who did.' We' have aeain in Michel an al-' most infinite number oft grievances, which must be, remedied, and .before long, too. I would advise' the company to send, down to Michel that gentleman \\h.o in Free Press columns signed himselt ."Satisfied." I- will undertake to.show him that in,some instances ive have men shovelling coal for the lidiculous sum of ,4 cents' per ton, a thing unparalellcd' on the American continent. 4 will show him a mine. where the miners" set ■* ,\ their posts for nothing, other camps in, this 'district paying'5 cents per. lineal foor for •-- sanie71 will show him men pushing - cfoal down-a chute 250 . feet long for nothing.' I will show' him • men packing -timbers the same- distance for .nothing—these things being..done by compani men. in other "camps.. I could go on al-. most ad infinitum. t How is that" in Taber, Alta., .the"" men receive 50,-c. per. ton ior loading and blasting- coal, after it has been machine mined,'aiid-the med *in_ No. 3, Michel, re- -ceive"~only~57t5—cents™- per—ton——ior- handpicked coal, having 'to blast and load too.' Why should" the C.' N..P. C. C. to discriminated in favor . of liy.,this, district union?"Do circumstances justi.'j it? No sir! "All of the Alberta operators had to buy their coal lands as well as develop them.'whiUt the C. N. P. C. C, through political intrigi'.e' and corruption, acquired *250 .:square, miles pfjthe finest, coal land under .tlie sun, and an almost illimitable stretch of tlmter'lauu, too, and'for nothing^ A very conservative estimate of the value of. this property would be ?1Q,000,COQ, probably_ '?15,CO0,CO3 would be urmrer the proper value.* Yet we' never hear-of this, being" counted in their balance.*-- Should we then work under worse conditions ana for less wages than other camps in the same field, and will tho Miohel men consent to'work under these conditions until the expiration''of this contract?. Let me say thut in' my opinion that Michel Is" a vcritablo magazine,, nnd is aa likely as not to go "off" at any tlmo. I ask you not to brand mo as a dcmasoR until after proper investigation, but rather como to, Michel nnd enquire for yourself, Ask the local .superintendent . how often ho Interviews thc local grievance commlttoe. That, I consider, Bhould be'n" true 'inc'ox, to the situation. Most probuMy tho company wlil Bay, what reliance can wc place In these men? Havo tbey no respect for n regular aslgafd nnd legal contract? Allow mo to suggest, sir, that no contract or agreement Is ,valld which Is signed through fear or Intimidation, and I can prove ..to the full that that applies In this,case. The company nuy>gnln''nBk, what method would be taken to "abrogate" this agreoment? In my opinion, the miners of1'-Michel, nnd » bollovo Fernio, too, and.ng that they arc work. Ing under worse conditions anil less wns-CH than those that prevail In the aforementioned places, may. nnd I believe they' will eventually, If not In tins immediate future, break nwny from District IS and form themselves into r. scparUc district, or probably nfflllntn Willi the Western Federation lionares,,and capitalists, etc., -said: that, "they" the Capitalists,., were' "God's Trustees."- I'wonder if he meant it, ii so, what'an awful" eon- demnatien of his God, 7A trustee, as. I' understand it,-"is, a' person who' is entrusted with a certain charge, by one who trusts him, believes and thinks thai he is an honest- man, one who will perform* this duty. Are some' of thc well known American millior&i'es men of that calibre? Men who hv : violated every law in the U.S. /,. both moral and physl-.. cal; men who have torn to pieces thousands of children, in their merciless., exploiution, men who have,today in "peonage" their fel,ow countrymen. Ac these God's trustees/ some of wl oni deny, his very existence. I can't believe it. . The Bishop of Lordon is cither misquoted, or he is mad If 'a man about to die, leaving an'1 only .daughter,, one whom his c>ery affection was centred) in, one who was too young, or too -the country mo;*.. There, is a class in England who arc almost afraid that their very clothes"might touch*those of the working class. They could not ■ be more scared if workingmen were, lepers. Even the business class have to play a very subservient role. If an aristo'-rat wanted a box of Beecham's Fills, * the shop assistant would, have to take them to-his home and 4\->;uld have to approach the place by -the, back door,- and with almost- reyerential awe, and. would he almighty glad if he got away without the dog being set on him. The average workingman, in thousands in England, is tricked out of the greatest privilege a man can have in aay country, viz., the Iran-- chise. "' J'ist , because^ hundreds . of .thousands are human enough to stay with their pm cnts, without taking out "lodger's-papers," they are deprived of a. vote in the country. Were I in England today I would have no- vcte.- Yet- wc find that all the aristocracy have-votes, because- if they are not householders they "are property owner's, but there are thousands 'cf-TTcspectauLe*;—intelligent—workng-- mea in Kugla.id, who consider themselves' faiily lucky, i, they have enough property to buy them their breakfast, 'lhe very fact that-we stay in tin's"country ourselves, is, a' better incmiiye for the Englishman to come, than Mr. Bigg's and others notes of warning are to the cor-, trary. Ii '-ve suffer fiom bad laws in this country, we only get what desurvo. There is no vountry in 0 world where thc workingmen, are in such an overwhelming majori-, ty as in British Columbia, and moro especially-the Fernie riding. If- we. want or vish to emancipate ourselves, wn have every possible opportunity, Wri have" In this " country what the Trade Unionists and Socialists of England have been and are yet fip.liti.ig for, universal "suffrage. Why then should we ask these men to st.iy in a country whero they have' not that lirivilogc. To mo it soems absurd. Wo have, in and around thi-pr mines benrly 2,50,0 men, there are, I believe about C practicing banisters In this same riding, yet we send Wm. Ross,,barrister to rcp't-seiit us. What has he dono or silil lor tho workingmen of this ooDF.tlti'tncy. On tho question of the J,\d* invasion ho has maintained an ominous silence, Ho has sceu hundreds of white men displaced by Japs In the lumbering industry, thcroly bringing them Into competition wit', tbo men engaged In thut Industry in this neighborhood, yet ho opens not his mouth. His sllonco to me, Mr. Editor, boars a very strong rcsomblanco to thc devotion of Leucna; who, wc are told, bit out her tongw for fear she mlgbt be tortured to betray her muster Arlutogitcn. Mr. Robs, lln bis devotion to his 'master 1. e. (The Corporal ion does not. bite out his tongue, biit rather putu It In his cheek, Speaking of the .Tap Invasion, I notice that President Hays uf tbe Grand Trunk Taclflc in an interview nt Vancouver said, "That uny one whom tho government al- ] innocent, an-" he bethought himself rrtnnnrirY'oTY^ g „ Canada's Weekly Newspaper Y% The to' appoint for her,, until she arrived at maLviity, a guardian, a trustee; would he deliberately choose a libertine? ,. when' will "this mummery cease, wh3n will the bishop's and all the orthodoxy, cease to shackle men's- minds'? • When will they commence to tell thc truth, I woiider. Tn conclusion, sir, although I cheerfully accord"-to "Satisfied", all I ask for myself," and especially the freedom of speech, he must see that I writ"; as „he did, in the. Company's paper, and under a non-de-plumc, places him ia a funny position, 'to say thc least. , He is also unique, .in that he is satisfied. ■ Man as a whole is not, never was, and never can be satisfied. He has been, and is .today,'' struggling up the social plane ,-ind for the firsc time'in human history,' v»e see signs that he is about to ..assume, the , full'responsibilities of 'manbood. In other words he is aboui to "refuse'to be the chattel of anyone, whom -nature has ^endowed with a cunning,, tigerish ^brain, in:. just,.the same .fashion that society .rflfiirAci^—fA o.llri'*!* ri'rto rnan lixrllOTTi't-- —i.

Dear Sir: , Letters are being constantly received by tho Bureau'ot Provincial ., Information from persons desiring work on farms and orchards. These applications are from,tho Middle, and Eastern Provinces . of Canada, the British Isles and Northern Europe, and may be divided.into four classes, . namely:— - '." ■ J 1. Young men inexperienced in farm work, wishing to'learn practical farm ' work and horticulture; 2. Experienced farm, hands, uumar- Hfeilj 3. Experienced farm hands, married " (with families . or' otherwise) whose wives are'willing to take service with their husbands; 4. Women domestics. * A majority of the applicants is of class 1, but there is a considerable- number of class 2. Class 3 is much less numerous, and there are very few applicants in class 4. ., Most of the , married men.are desirous of having a dwelling separate from that of the employers, an0 arrangement which - should commend itself to those who 1 look to securing permanent help. , Under an agreement existing between the Government and the Emi- 5 gration Branch of the Salvation Army a considerable immigration of t&rm hands and domestic help is°expected from Great Britain during the spring Tuesday afternoon inaugurated a stop in advance for Fernio: it mado it possible to talk to Cranbrook by'phono. Tho usefulness of telephones has become bo thoroughly established that now tho idea of comfort is a factor in tholr working, In lonely prairie homesteads, to women who have nothing but tho Inevitable round of duties to por form, women who havo never tho opportunity to exchange the trivial gossip with theii- neighbours, havo now some moans of warding off tho Intolerable lonollness of tholr llvos.

OCTOBER ,26, • 1907 "' * tCTTER FROM PRESIDENT MITCHELL Spring Valley.'IU., Oct. 11,1907. . Mr. Frank W. Snyder, Publisher, the Labor Argus, Charleston, \Y. Ya.: ;. Dear Sir and Brother—Your favor of October a waa forwarded from Indian" apolis and received at Spring- Valley, where I nm, epeiulinjj a few hours at my home, preparatory tq cnterin-? the .hospital at LaSallo, 111., for the purpose of uuclorgoing- an operation. Your letter enclosed what purports to be an interview from Mr. John Nugent, ■and you ask*mo to write a statement in reply thoroto. As only two hours will .elapse before I leave for the hospital, and ae the operation I am forced to uii' clergo is serious r.nd complicated, it is not likely that 1 shall have opportunity .to give attention to matters of this kind i again in tlio very near future, I'shall,' therefore, . accept u your invitation to mnkerenlv. ..*-'• ■ *■' " . 4 a i That Mr. Nugent should express sur- , prise that the officers of our organization should seek to prevent miners from locating in tho state of AVi-st Virginia-1 is,,to ,say,the least, astonishing. He knows that for many, many yeat-B the very best possible^ efforts were made to organize that 6tate. He cannot deny that the efforts made were'the best, be*. cause he hoi-ea-proininent part in them. Letters from him oii lile at our ofiice aud his statements before our Executive Board will show that these efforts and plans had his endorsement. - • -We were not able to Becure—at least little progress was made toward securing —a thorough organization in the Little Mountain State, •• arid', a large part of what*wo had iu the Kanawha district was'destroyed bv* a settlement made by - him without our knowledge or authority. However, continuous, coriBtaut agitation and never-ceasing effort did result in depleting the state of West Virginia of nearly all its practical miners whom the impositions of the'operators had not , already, driven out. . The culmination of all this is, that although West Virginia ' has more than' 50,000 men "employed. their homes? Are the guards less aggressive?. Are the weapons they use lesB deadly ? Have the operators grown more liberal? Or does this critic of our organization*believe that perhaps theee foreign workmen wiil assert themselves differently than have our own American workmen? - As a mattor of fact, let me announce thus publicly that not only, has the with such qualities that make him a peerless leader of men will be loot to organized labor, Such a man can no more be turned from his natural bent than the tides. , ' ' i ' ' " .* " '■" In this hour of his affliction no more pleasurable thing could happen tnan to read the-numberless tributes paid to President Mitchell by. the press of the country, with scarcely an exception. United Mino Workers of America taken j Froin t"Ke pens of an conie priceless and additional steps to prevent these decep* tions sought to be practised, upohthe workmen of Europe, but the entire American labor movement will add its strength to these efforts, and information wi.l.uo'lllcd with the Uuitcd States government that will put an end for ever to this dastardly attempt' to" beguile decent workmen to migrate to n state where conditions aro far less favorable than prevail in the countries from which they should oomo. ■ - ' Yours truly, JOHN1 MITCHELL, - ' , President U.

Arid although theBO very conditions remain unchanged, Mr. Nugent, on a.salary derived from funds contributed by non-union, coal- operators, proceeds to the old country, there to induce practical English speaking men to Iceato in tho state from which, 20,000 men wero ,driven because of the unfair mining conditions.. Ho will not dony the statement that his salary was paid from money contributed by tho coal operators, and if he should I shnll furnish from tho highoet possible authority verification of the assertion.

This immense volume of fuel, representing the output of a good-sized coal breaker in active operation, was fed to the' mammoth*furnaces of the great ship by 60 men, who did not obtain a glimpse of the sky from tho time the vessel started on her voyage- off., the English coast until' her.engines slowed up in New" York harbor: . * Tho tremendous fires of the big ship were kept at a white he«it from start to finish. It was torture for the stokers in that terrible'inferno. We are told that 'Jflames,-under the influence of forced draft, licked out into the hold,'and as the tour of iluty'of each man expired he dropped his shovel arid staggered away, groping for the air vents. All through Tuesday afternoon the coal passers and firemen worked at top speed, arid the evening saw no cessation. About 7.15 .o'clockia firoman,-overcome-byheat-and physical strain, suddenly went insane. He attacked his fellows with his shovel, and'for a time it seemed as though the staff of firemen would be reduced th rough the cracking of the skulls of several good men;'' But he was finally oyer: powered and taken to the ship's hoe- pital." , „ **■'.- From this it will be seen that the record breaking voyage of thoLusitania was diio' to something more than her turbine engines.

That is nor the fault, however, of,certain misguided citizens who thought to preserve peace by lawless and hi-jh'handed.treatment of thestriking workmen.- ., The New York Nation,Jn its current number, chortles gleefully over the incident at Ely, where the townspeople escorted one Lundstrom, an organizer for the union, to the railroad station in "a,jeering crowd," and sent, him away on pain'of rough handling. The editor glories in this act. " i The lawless conduct of citizens and; the extra legal acts of officers at' Nash- wauk,' in breaking up lawful meetings of the strikers, brought on a hair-trigger situation that required much diplomacy to settle.

'' yo nuivli ri'lievc;! bv ■onion knowlm SOCIALISTIC MEETING A large" audience assembled in thc oiir, yet he preferred to form a colony in New Lanark and die a poor man in the States. What incentive did 1 William Morris-, the' poet, have, Unjon Hall last Sunday, when .. the j and Bl/rns and Shelley and Miltb ' usual meetmg-.of Pernie local- was with.h;'s pa;adise losi and p&r^ held. • Mr. J. Blakemore was ..voted '.to the chair, and after singing one of the.inspiring" socialist songs, gave a few.remarks. He instanced a-case 'in New- York where a lady's favorite 'dog had. died and its funeral had cost $500, whilst there' were T honest .workers who had contributed to the .world's good could' not afford to he buried decently, *all due, to the'system of exploitation which one worked' and lived under. ' * Mr. W.. McLaughlan.was then called upon.-for'a song, and'.very" ably responded , with. .''The Anchor's .Weighed.;,'- " -. rf. . ...The secretary then' stated - there were a. lot of S. D. F. and.I. L. Peers arriving, from the' Old -..Country and he"extended-,*;on behalf of Fernie ,lochl, ai hearty invitation to co-op-' erate with them in their efforts to advancejthe cause of' socialism. ."""" After the singing of another song,' the speaker of the evening, Mr. J. Harrington, was called "upo» to give an address on socialism and; incentive, and proved himself to be an ^kiJPiakjer^deaiing^with^the-sub-- ject in.a forceful and lucid manner He. remarked '".that anyone who . :had a stoneTto throw;at socialism, had thrown-" incentive,' and he believed that Solomon was not the' wisest man on "earth 'or else he would, have *■ asked for incentive instead of wis- ,'dom. What was incentive?- It was a , motive power impelling men to ae-tion; a power that incited men to" do something and'he would like to refer them to some of the first-class minds.of tho past so that they might take an historical view . of' the Incentive that had prompted these men* to benefit tho world as they had- 'done. Karl Marx was 'born of the middle.classes and could have been removed from penury if he had chosen. When he was writing his book which lias revolutionized the world, he .refused money from Prince Bismarck,.'Which was offcrod 11 howould not publish it', yet ho prefcrrod to live in'eiilo ln London. What incon-. tlvo prompted him when he could havo lived.ih ease and luxury—certainly not tho incentlvo of gain. What about Robert, Owen. With his money he could havo lived in spldml- rogained, It took hiin 20 'years*"to produce these two books, and - ho only got' $75 for both of them and lost his eyesight as well. The incentive that prompted these men was a love for their fellow man, and this was' a greater incentive than gain: It was the'incentive: pf riches that produced . such conditions as Upton Sinclair depicts in his book. It was the incentive to gain that produced such an abnormal'amount of" poverty," misery, vice and degradation as was manifested today.. If it was true that ^socialism would- kill incentive, vvhat about the Greek Republic? Surely this state would have produced as poor a set*;of citizens as could" be1 expected" but on. the . contrary* it produced some of the 5nest minds in. painting,-medicine, astronomy..'and sculptor'as the'world has ever .seen. What . about Socrates, Plato; Brito, Glauco, igatho and a host of others—incentive was "not killed there. Socialism'' would not destroy incentive, for as Ruskiin said no great work'was ever'written,, no great—act-was-ever/'<lorie~ior"7money^ but it was for the love'of the work. Under socialism there" would be five to. ten tinits as much incentive as there is now." ■> ' ■" Questions were asked of the speaker nt the close, which were answered satisfactorily. •ili-p7l4l--f "f ll1*' .ll.ifc.-pnr forms "rash 'Fur Ih", ',|,w,|>'*---y what tlie.v mean. hXKiiiY 'nxY' KCiU'k,t fevoi' lll"t '»ost ■nl-*fil °- il" '""csbos."

Title | The Fernie Ledger |
Publisher | Fernie, B.C. : T. T. John and F. H. Sherman |
Date Issued | 1907-10-26 |
Description | The Nakusp Ledge was published in Nakusp, in the Central Kootenay region of southeastern British Columbia, from October 1893 to December 1894. The paper was subsequently published as the Ledge both in New Denver, from December 1894 to December 1904, and in Fernie, from January to August 1905. The Ledge was published by Robert Thornton Lowery, a prolific newspaper publisher, editor, and printer who was also widely acclaimed for his skill as a writer. After moving to Fernie, the paper continued to be published under variant titles, including the Fernie Ledger and the District Ledger, from August 1905 to August 1919. |
