B. C. Davis Assayer and Metaliurkist -for the Pyritic Smelter���An Opinion on the Increased Mining Tax -Work at the Smelter The directors of the Cariboo Mining company have declared a 1J_ cent dividend for the quarter ending September 30. The dividend will be paid on Oct. 31 to shareholders of record of Sept. 30. A much larger dividend could have been declared out of the surplus funds on hand, but the management is pursuing the policy of devoting as large a share as possible of its profits to development and equipment purposes. The official reports from the mine are to the effect that the property is in splendid shape. Underground the work is being pushed, both east and weBt; along the ore bodies, with excellent results. In new ground on the Okanagan claim, the management has opened up what it considers one of the most remarkable chutes of good grade ore every discovered anywhere. This chute is unbroken and uufaulted, and extends for 350 feet straight away. To more effectually open this showing and further increase the company's ore iteserves anew additional'triple compartment shaft is being sunk on the Okanogan. This shift will permit of two hoists running, and leave room for a airway besides. It will of course connect underground with the present Cariboo shafts, " A. B. C. Davis, who accepted tbe position of chemist and metallurgist for the Standard Pry tic Smelting company, has arrived in the city. Mr. Davis has had a long and successful experience. He has been .assayer, chemist and metallurgist of the Cleor patra smelter at Ouray, Colorado, the Bouna Vesta S. & R. company and -the Boston Gold-Copper Smelting company at Lddville, Colorado. " . freight and smelting is placed at $21 ton. This leaves $79 on which the 2 per cent tax is to be paid. The tax would therefore be $1.58 a ton. The mine management claim that they employ 80 men; who under present conditions mine 100 tons of ore a week, and the cost of mining the ore is placed at $40 a ton. They contend that it is unfair to levy a tax on this $40; that the tax should be levied on the net value of the ore; or, in other words, that the- tax should be 2 per cent on $39 instead of $79. Taking $110 as the actus.1 value of Slocan ore, and $31 as the actual sum paiid for freight and treatment, a mine that ships 100 tons a week, and keeps the shipments at that rate for a year will pay the province $8,216 in taxes, and make a net profit of $194,584. This does -not seem to be unfair taxation, when it is considered that tVje cost Qf marketing- Slocan QF? has been reduced anywhere Irom 95 to $10 a ton through the building of railways into the district largely through bond subsidies and land grants from the province. Compare the taxes paid by the-producing mine with the taxes paid by the> producing sawmill. A sawmill Gutting and selling 40,000 feet of lum. ber a day pays the province 50 cents on each and every thousand feet of logs scaled .in the mill pond or mill yard. The cost of laying a- thousand feet of logs down at a sawmill in Kootenay is $5, and the cost of sawing* the logs info lumber is $5, This leaves a margin of $3 a thousand to the millman, out of which he must pay the province 50 cents. _If tlie millman run-- his mill s_ix.d-.T_. a. -week aud everv week iu the year, -lie will have xxbetl up 1-2,4HO,')..0 JTobn O^Kegan, si|periiiteutU.|it,.i],f feet.vf logs; wil! .'avepaiJ^^province the X<ast' Chance, -one of the famous mines in the Slocan, was in Nelson on Saturday'. In a general conversation with a Tribune man he said that the mine .had resumed shipments, all tbe buildings and plant destroyed by.the recent fire having been replaced;'in fact, the property is now in better shape for economical working than ever" before, The big tunnel is well underway, and when it reaches tbe vein, the mine will be opened to a depth of 1,000 feet. Mr. Regan has been in the country since 1890, and is well posted on the conditions prevailing there, Like all other men intrusted with the management of mines, he says that the 2 per cent tax now imposed by the province on the output of metalliferous mines is unfair. To back up his contention, he citeB the Last Chance-as an example. Thc value of the ore produced by that mine, for argument's' sake, is placed at $100 a ton at the mine, The cost of ...THIS CUT SHOWS OUR. $6,240 i�� taxes, and have anet prpfii. of, $31,200. " - " .

Dibd���At the Greenwood Hospital on : Thursday last, Eugene D. Sullivan, __ aged 45 years. ___ Behind this brief announcement is an Interesting story of a gentleman who played a prominent part in the stirring drama of Butte politics, who had1 strong personal and political friends and strong political enemies, but who died possessing the respect of all who knew him. Eugene D. Sulli- vaa was born in Houghton, Mich. His father died while he wais still young and the care of a family of six boys and thre* girls younger than himself fell on his shoulders.' He came to Butte in 1878 and was Boon a prominent ��� figure in stirring politics of that city. He was elected sheriff of Silver Bow county, in which Butte ia situated, and held the office from 1884 to 1886. He ran for the office a second time and received a majority of votes, but owing to some irregularity in one of the precincts, its vote was thrown out and hia opponent was declared elected. During his term of office he discharged his duties faithfully and impartially. The Daly-Clark fued was then started and the Democratic party was divided Into two hostila factions. The result wag disastrous to many, including Mr. Sullivan, and he emerged from the conflict ruined financially. For some time he kept an hotel in Walkersville, a suburb of Butte. He left that city ih January last and went to Republic. From there he came to Greenwood and went to work with bis old friend Nick Tregear at the Winnipeg mine. On the night of Sept. 16 be complained of feeling unwell, and on the 16th he went to Phoenix. He started back to tbe mine on the first of October, bat Mr. Tregear seeing that he was still, a very sick man sent him to tbe Greenwood hospital. It waa found that he was suffering irom typhoid fever and despite the beat (medical treatment death came at 11:35 Thursday night. His brother, D. J. Sullivan, was immediately telegraphed for and he arrived from Butte Saturj day night. He made arrangements to have the body embalmed by T. M. Gulley & Co. who also furnshed a magnificent casket. By Monday's train, the remains were shipped to Butte for interment, a large concourse of those who knew him in past years following to 'the railway station. The pallbearers were: Jno. Hanley, of the R. Bell mine, a cousin of the deceased, Nick Tregear, Col. Armstrong, R. E. L,. Brown, J. Roderick Robertson, James Cunningham, C. J. McArthur, apd Wm. Hurley. D. J. Sullivan, who is in the office of the treasurer in Silver Bow county, is the only surviving brother, but his sisters, Mrs. J. Murphy, Mrs. Joe Hogan and Mrs. O'Neill reside in Butte. Eugene D. Sullivan was highly respected by those who knew him. Always a strong friend of the working- men, he possessed their confidence and secured their support in -his political struggles. ELECTION DAY The Date for the Dominion General Elections IS FIXED FOR NOVEMBER 7 A St-oit" Camiaign ��� The Writs For a General Election Will Be Nailed Tomorrow, A CIVIC DEADLOCK Mayor Refuses to Sign Agreement Settling Rendell Case. For two hours and a half the Greenwood council wrangled over the agreement with Rendell & Co. and in that time did' not succeed in adopting the minutes of the previous meeting. Mayor Hardy was in the chair and Aid. Galloway, Sutherland and Sulli- von were present. The clerk read the minutes and Aid. Galloway moved their adoption. The mayor at once attacked the agreement passed by the council and said that he would never sign the same until Rendell & Co. lowered the sidewalk. No one seconded the motion to adopt the minutes and at 10:30 Aid. Galloway, seeing no prospects of any business being done, left the. council chamber and the council without a quorum. The action of the mayor places the council in a peculiar position.. By a unanimous vote they decided to give $5,000 to Rendell & Co, jn settlement of tlieir suit and wired their .solicitor.. Ottawa, Ont., October 8. An order in 'council was passed aj|��.approved today dissolving parliament and a proclamation will be issued to that effect tomorrow.

J. p'jDaaogJ_V.e, a prominent labor man of Toronto, and clothed him with power to give practical effect to thi-. resolution. Subletting- of contracts has. bejen stopped" by the government. The original, contractor is responsible "to^he govern ment and he must pay current wages. The g-overnmerit has abolished the ^sweating- system in Canada; the government has passed a measure pr6viding for the adoption of conciliatory methods in the settlement of labor disputes; the government has established a-department of labor and publish/the I<abor Gazette in the interests- of labor; the government has appointed an officer to enforce the pro. visions of the alieu labor net and has doubled the poll tax on Chinese coming, into this country. In other ways its; legislation has been in the direction of, promoting the interests of the hiboring classes. All this has been done in the last four years, but the gentlemen of the Nelson convention are riot satisfied. They offer Chris Foley as a willing sacrifice on the altar of Toryism. . The offering will no doubt be gratefully accepted by the Conservative candidate, but how are the interests of'the laboiing man to be thus promoted? Wednesday, October io, woo. A TORY STALKING HORSE. The worst enemy of labor is labor.. Those, who are honestly*! striving-- to promote the labor interests have more to fear from the enemies within their rank than from those who have not directly identified themselves with labor organizations. T.he nomination of Chris Foley as a labor candidate in the forthcoming federal election.is the making of a stalking .horse. behind which good Conservatives hope to secure an advantage over the Liberals. ��� We know that the rank and file of the labor party are opposed to this playing , into the hands of their ancient enemy, the Tory party. We .do not-say that, either the avowed labor, leaders or Chris Foley are with malice. aforethought dedicating the labor party in. Ya'e-Cariboo, to the-: political sharp practices of the Tory party; but appearances are against them. They have been told by those who are ac-. quainted with the political, situation in. Yale-Cariboo district,-that.a'l-*.bor, candidate could not possibly be elected in this district, that he cannot secure votes enough to save his. deposit; they" have been Avarned by sensible men within their ranks, that the nomination of a labor candidate,- while-it might help the Conservatives,���'.would' militate against-the interests of labor;- they did not go into the tfelson convention ignorant of- the political conditions or their own weakness in a -federal fight. In opposition to the advice their friends, within and without the ranks, they place a candidate in the field who has no more chance of being elected than Paul Kruger has of being King of England, but who may succeed in taking a few hundred votes from the ~^E,iberal**candidater--The^majority'-of- laboring men in every constituency and in every cbunty are Liberals. Theirs is a policy of Jreform. They, are honestly striving after legislation to which they are'entitled and they naturally ally themselves with the party whose policy is in a measure- similiar to their own. What is generally true, is true of Yale-Cariboo dis-. trict. Left free, the majority ,of the labor men would vote for Mr. GaliiherJ' the Liberal candidate, and if they vote for Mr. Foley they only help to elect Mr. McNeill. The labor convention at Nelson -promulgated a platform- They want free compulsory education; they want a legal working day of eight hours; they want government inspection of all industries, and the abolition of contract system on public works; they want the public ownership of all franchises and the abolition of Asiatic im migration; they want the compulsory arbitration of labor disputes and the prohibition of competition from prison labor, and they want the compulsory arbitration of the franchise. They declare in their platform that they want all these reforms and in the same breath they give the lie to their statements by arming Chris Foiey with authority to assist A.' H. McNeill in defeating the party who would listen to their ldemands. A careful study of Canadian history reveals no marked legislation by the Conservatives in the interests of the working man during their eighteen years of power, but still the labor convention of Nelson sends out their representa- iive for the purpose of securing the return of a Conservative. On the other hand laboring men have secured much during the four years of Liberal, rule. Through the instrumentality of Hon. Mr. Mulock, postmaster-general, the House of Commons passed are'solatitTn to the effect that every effort should be made to secure to workmen on government works the current-wage and J. P.

GREENWOOD THE METROA OLIS An epidemic of optimism and exaggeration breaks out in Boundary country at short intervals. Newspapers are most.liable to ���: c__tbh the infection It is never fatal but unlike lightening it usually strikes twice or oftener in the same place." Our old friend; the Grand Forks Gazette, never escaped Just as. sure as there were any germs flouting round'so sure would the Gazette become afflicted with the disease. It must be very infectious for even the Phoenix Pioneer has fallen a victim.'It is laboring under the hallucination 'that the .only place on earth is Phoenix. Now Phoenix is the natural outcome of the develop- .ment ..'of the ' mineral resources in the camp.v The employment of- men in the mines-of Phoenix; insures a central place where tlie miners build their homes. There will be- found stores and saloons arid hotels. The more men that are employed in the mines at Phoenix, the greater will thev town become. ..But "this should : not alarm the Pioneer: The. growth of the town will '.riot'.be fearfully rapid, and, judging from . the" '.history of other mining camps, there is every assurance, that with a little energy the newspaper can keep pace with the development of ;thc town....'...-- .

These-departmental Stores will sell only for for cash, they never Iif taliand to carry anybody over a b^.d year, and they only solicit business' in' this country when they1 know there will be a little ready money to be snapped up. The western retail merchant is called upon to supply con- sumers^Iiere with goods at all seasons, to supply them on credit when-there is no cash to pay with and to sometimes carry accounts for years when hard, times strike the country, or when there has been some individual- case of m'x-.- fortune, and to the credit of the trade it may be said tliat they never shrink from doing all that theircapital will allow-of this sortof thing*, and sometimes a great deal more, in spite of possible disastrous results to them- jselves'.-'.

And more so because there is no good reason whatever why th'ey should get the business. They do not handle better goods, hor do they offer better bargains when everything" is taken into consideration. They make no redress whatever if goods are not what have been ordered and in the case of miscarriage in delivery they do not hold themselv«s responsible.

Title | The Greenwood Weekly Times |
Alternate Title | [The Boundary Creek Times] |
Publisher | Greenwood, B.C. : Boundary Creek Printing and Publishing Company |
Date Issued | 1900-10-10 |
Description | The Boundary Creek Times was published in Greenwood, in the Kootenay Boundary region of southern British Columbia, and ran from September 1896 to March 1911. The Times was published first by the Times Publishing Company (1896-99), and then by the Boundary Creek Printing and Publishing Company (1901-1911), and its longest-serving editor was Duncan Ross (1897-1907). In April 1911, the Times was absorbed by another Greenwood-based paper, the Ledge. The Times was revived in 1983, and it continues to be published out of a small building in downtown Greenwood to this day. |
