This settled condition will result in the return of good feelings between employer and employee and the resumption of such good feeling will do much to restore prosperity. While The Tribune can make no very interesting announcements in the way of strikes either in new ground or in producing mines, all reports are of the same tenure, that is, that more men are, or soon will be, at work in our mines than ever before in the country's history. ONE OF THE LARGEST ON THE CONTINENT. The Moyie Leader says: "An important strike was made in the St Eugene mine this Aveek when between eight and nine feet of solid ore was struck about GOO feet in from the 100-foot level of the shaft on the Lakeshore claim. This is on a cross lead between Avhat is known as, the south vein and the main lead. A'li the development work done from this level goes to prove that the enormous bodies of ore encountered in the No. 1 workings maintain their size as they go down, and in one place the ore has reached the width of 33 feet. Take it all in all it is doubtful if there is a better developed or better equipped mine in Canada than the St. Eugene, and so far as silver-lead mines are concerned perhaps there are no better on the American continent. There is enough ore blocked out to.keep the mill runnin-j steadily for eight or ten years, and the machinery and equipment for operating is equal to the best in the country. In the face of this the mine is to be ���closed down for an indefinite period pending the action of the lead market." 2S00 pounds reached Ferguson a few days ago where it will lie until the balance is taken out. It then will be taken in Avagons to Trout Lake for shipment to the smelter. At the Old Gold the lower tunnel is now encountering considerable mineral and it is believed from indications now present that the ore chute is at no great distance. At the Primrose a force of men are employed and things at this property are looking very promising. The trail whicli Avas commenced last year from the main Duncan up the Little West Fork, is now at Spencer City and communication between Hall's Landing and the Old Gold camp on Westfaill creek is now established. on Giveout creek, a distance of 7200 feet. These properties are about 2 1-2 miles south of Nelson. A BIG INCREASE IN PROFITS. Trout Lake Topic: .. "The last of the ore at Trout Lake, the fruits of last Avin- ter's work, was taken out last Saturday by the Victoria. The aggregate shipments of both the Sihrer Cup and Nettie ���L was in the neighborhood of 1400 tons fand its value will not'be "short of $195,- 000 gross. Owing to the completion of the Lardo branch of the C. P. R., freight rates will be about cut in tw.o so that 'iiie" iiixsiiiS 'Horn tAe shipments* v. ill' be many-thousands of dollars in or., than they were under the old conditiiis." ON FORTY-NINE CREEK. L. J. D. Berg of Chicago is working the Alexandria group of three claims, situate on Forty-nine creek, 12 miles southwest of Nelson. About $1100 have been spent on the porperty in sinking a shaft and making open cuts. The ore carries $21 gold and $6 silver values to the ton, and can be got to the Avagon road by rawhiding a distance of 4 1-2 miles. There are quite a number of other claims in the same neighborhood, several of whicli have good showings. TROUT LAKE DISTRICT. The Trout Lake Topic says: "At the Guinea Gold things are looking very nicely. The tunnel is now in about 100 feet with ore for the entire distance. There has been taken out and is lying on the_dump about 30 tons__of___i,_**_.a_i30j_s_ tion of which is concentrating. The first installment of a 20-ton shipment, about PREPARING FOR AN INCREASED OUTPUT. Referring to the Le Roi mine, the Rossland Miner of yesterday says: "In vieAv of the largely enhanced shipments at a comparatively early date from decreased costs of freight and treatment the Le Roi mine has blocked out large reserves of ore to be mined when the amended conditions take effect. With these reserves being stoped it is stated that the mine will be in shape to mine and ship 35,000 tons of ore every month, and that 30,000 tons monthly would be an easy problem for the mine to solve. Such a production would involve shipments of almost 1200 tons daily, and the activity thus engendered Avill be extremely desirable from the standpoint of the city generally, involving, as it would, large increases in the working forces whiih now include something over 300 men all told. While the undertaking between the mine and the Great Northern calls for a minimum output of 24,000 tons monthly, the mine will actually produce considerably more than this amount Avhen the contract takes effect, as a liberal margin will be provided in order that slight accidents, not provided for in the con tract, would not have the effect of bringing the output beloAV the tonnage stipulated. Under ordinary circumstances the tonnage will therefore run from about 25.000 to about 28,000 tons monthly, and all this means larger payrolls and stimulated business in the city." HAVE SOMETHING GOOD.. James Finley, resident manager of the Sullivan mine, was in Fort Steele Sat- ���ui-cla-/ lasl^says th. Prospector; -Mr." Finley is a mining man of long experi- tnce, and his satisfied expression is an evidence that they have something good, that is aAvay above the average in the company's property, which will be demonstrated as soon as active operations are commenced. There is a large amount of pay ore in sight and when operations are resumed regular shipments will be kept up from the start. SLOCAN ORE SHIPMENTS. Six hundred and tAventy tons of ore were shipped from Slocan mines last week, as follows: Payne 20 tons, Sunset 20, American Boy 40, Arlington 60, Last Chance 20, Enterprise 120, Whitewater 80, Slocan Boy 20, Rambler-Cariboo 100, Ruth 140. TRAMWAY ORDERED. The company that acquired the Athabasca and the Venus has let a contract for the erection of a Riblet automatic iie'-ial "tramway,_which_w*hen_completed will be used in transporting ore from the Venus mine to the Athabasca mill THE MINES THAT PAY THE TAX. Much is said and Avritten regarding the 2 per cent tax on the output of metalliferous mines in British Columbia. The tax is levied, not on the gross value of the ore, but on the value after all charges for transportation and treatment have been deducted, in other words the 2 per cent is paid on the* value of the or* at the mine. The following shows the amounts paid as mineral tax by the several mines in West Kootenay and Boundary districts during the calendar year, 1901: 't is understood that P. Burns & Co. will immediately begin the erection of a brick building on their lot, and that others will do likewise, as a portion of the burned district is wtihin the fire limits.

At 3 o'clock in tho afternoon an alarm was sent to the lire station from near the corner of Spokane street and First avenue. The alarm was answered promptly, and when the firemen reached the (.round they discovered that the buildings occupied by P. Burns & Co.'s meat market and Thompson's restaurant were on fire. Within ten minutes the Blue Label building- and the Anaconda saloon were ablaze, with the wind blowing- from the southwest carrying the flames toward the north and east. In a short time the wind changed, and the Are jumped west across Spokane street to the Eagle lodging house and other buildings. For a time a panic reigned, and many of the business men on Columbia avenue began removing goods -and effects. The firemen worked to good advantage, however, and did not allow the fire to spread to the business section south of the alleyway between Spokane and AVashington streets. The firemen were assisted by hundreds of volunteers, and the department from Trail arrived about 4 o'clock, coming thirty strong with 1,000 feet of hose. They'covered the distance between Trail and Rossland In 36 minutes on a Canadian Pacific special train. The water supply was good, and within two .hours the fire was under control. The only injury of moment was suffered by chief Guthrie, who was forced to drop from the second story of the Burns' block, coming in contact with live electric wires In his descent. AVithin thirty minutes after the accident he was back directing . his men. The losses will approximate $70,000, on which there was about $20,000 insurance. The losses are as below: P.

There is a slight difference between the price of beef in Montreal and the price in Nelson, as the folloAving from the Montreal Herald of August 23rd goes to show: "The way in which the price of beef has come down is none the less gratifying because it was not altogether expected. Steaks which but- a few months ago were selling at. 18 and 20 cents are today selling for 12 1-2 cents. Some butchers advertise best sirloins for 10 and 12 cents. The reduction in price -is=noticed-particularly-as=i*egards=beefc= Cattle are plentiful at the present time, and it costs little or nothing to feed them. Spring lamb���several months old, of course���is now sold by the pound, while heretofore it was distributed only in quarters. Areal is very scarce. The spring calf is not being slaughtered, but kept for stocking and autumn sales. Pork is cheaper. Round steak, formerly selling at 15' cents, is now quoted at 9 and 10. Sirloin, which .sold as high as 22 cents, is now sold at from 10 to 12 1-2 cents; beef chops, two for 25 cents, and at some stores three for 25 cents. Roast beef was an expensive item a few months ago. It then sold at 18 and 20 cents. Now roasts sell for 7, S, 10, 12 and 12 1-2 cents. Shank, shoulder and brisket beefs sell from 3 to 8 cents. Lamb front quarters sell at. 7 and S cents and hindquarters at 9 and 10 cents. The best pork roasts sell at 10, 11 and 12 cents. Mr. D. Furlong of Prince Arthur street, who favored the Herald with the above figures, said today that the price of beef was at present lower than it had been for many years. In the holiday season, Mr. Furlong said, the price of beef would certainly go up again, but he did not think it would be as high as it was during last winter." APPLIES FOR MORE LAND. The West Kootenay Power & Light Company, Limited, is after more land. The company's manager is L. A. Campbell, Avho resides in Rossland, and the following notice appears in the Official Gazette and the Kaslo Kootenaian. It is not in the public interest that one corporation should secure all the land on Kootenay river suitable for sites for power stations, but evidently tbe West Kootenay Power & Light Company, Limited, has a pull in at least on of the departments���not the lands and works department���which enables it to get what it Avants. NOTICE. Notice is hereby given that sixty (GO*) days from date hereof, I, L. A. Campbell, of Rossland, intend to apply to the chief commissioner of lands and works for permission to purchase fifty (50) acres more or less of waste land, in the dis- At least one member of the provincial government is aware of the fact that there are people in Kootenay unwilling to wait for the "better terms" negotiations between the provincial government and the Dominion government to come to a head. The "better terms" demanded by the provincial government from the Dominion government are based on the relative proportions of the revenue contributed by the people of British Columbia to the Dominion in comparison with that contributed by the people of other provinces taken in connection with the amounts that the Dominion expends in British Columbia and the other provinces. The people of Kootenay are large consumers of the products of the dairy, the orchard, .and the farm, and owing to their proximity to the state of Washington and to the fact that the inerior farm ing disricts of the-province are handi- caped by transportation and the holding of large areas of cultivable land by stockmen, they pay thousands of dollars annually to dealers in Washington and thousands more to the Dominion customs collectors in the way of duties on. the produce imported. If the people of Kootenay can produce a portion of what they consume, the money.Avill not be sent to farmers and dealers in the -statfi. of Washington, or paid into the DOF'jjfc ion treasury as customs dues.

CONSERVATIVES CALL A CONVENTION TO HELP SELECT A PROVINCIAL LEADER NeAv life is to be instilled into the Conservative party in British - Columbia. At present the.party organization is known as the "Liberal-Conservative Union of British Columbia," of which J.: R. Seymour of-Vancouver is chairman of the executive committee and C. J. South of the same place is secretary. Who the other members are is unknown in Kootenay, but the controlling element is at the Coast, for they have ordered that a convention of the "Liberal-Conservative Union of British Columbia" will be held; in Selkirk hall, Revelstoke, on the 12th and 13th days of September, commencing at 9 o'clock a. m. The right to vote at this convention is confined to delegates chosen by Liberal-Conservative Associations or district meetings convened for the purpose, and one delegate will be allowed for every twenty members of sxich association or district meeting. No proxies are to be allowed except by members of the exbcuti^e; of the provincial union. It is given out that R. L. Borden, leader of the Conservatives in the house of commons, F. D.,Monk,: M. P., E. F. Clarke, M. P., and- others willr be in attendance There is known to be rivalry within the party over the leadership. The Conservatives on Vancouver Island -want an Island man, either Prior or Eberts. Those of the lower Mainland want a man from the Mainland, and these men are probably setting up the pins to make "Dick" McBride of New Westminster chv'ef cook. The Conservatives of the interior are divided. If .the rank and file had a chance to express their opinions, neither Prior, Eberts, nor McBride would be unduly ele\-ated over their fellows. Prior, being a business man, and the other two laAvyers, would be the more acceptable, because there is a strong feeling that lawyers, for some reason, A\'hen elected to office, cannot draAv the line between the interests of their individual client's, which are often corporations seeking undue advantages, and the interests of the people. The Conservative Association of Nelson became discredited in 1900, through its action in attempting to disfranchise hundreds of persons entitled to vote, and there has been no organization worthy of the name since. The officers of the old association were: Fred Irvine, president, and S. M. Brydges, secretary. Mr. Irvine, as president of the old association, has called a public meeting, at the Board of Trade rooms, for Tuesday, night, to which all Conservatives are; invited. It is not likely that the convention at Revelstoke will be of any material advantage to the party.

While the expenditures for official salaries, the maintenance of public buildings, the expenses incident to the administration of justice, and the dis- ^bursem^rits^fo^ given in the table of expenditures printed below, they, in the aggregate, will not amount to the difference between the expenditures for roads and trails and the revenue collected. Revenue collected from nil sources in the different ridings of AA'est Kootenay for the years 1900 and 1901 is as follows: 1900 1901 Slocan riding ... 50.309 30 45.030 91 Nelson riding . .$ 50,320 4S ? 82.115 70 Rosland riding . 9S.900 3S 93.S00 07 Revelstoko rid'g. 25.71 S 97 30.097 43 interest, behind, the road Avas known.

It. is quite possible, with the multiplicity of interests of certain large capitalists, that they should use their influence in the various corporations they control to prevent competition either in steel making or in the transportation business. It has been proved time and again that the railroads have made it a practice to discriminate in favor of certain producers as against others. A logical result Avould be that the railroads should demand similar favors in return. Where the controlling powers of a steel trust and a railroad corporation are identical or even closely related, they would have little difficulty if they dared to violate the law, to embarrass or suppress competition in the way of new railroad lines. With the concentration of industries and their operation on the community-of-interest plan _it_is_,b>__no^means^impiiobable^thatlthe. trust ma -mates will sometimes overplay their selfish game, as they are accused of doins in the case of the projected Omaha railroad. $231,255 13 $251,050 14 Add amounts col lectetl in Victoria 32.701 2S 3S.354 10 $201,019 41 $289,401 51 The amount of expenditure on roads and trails in the different ridings of West Kootenay for the years 1900 and 1901 is as follows: 1900 1901 Nelson riding ...$ 12.900 91 $ 11.218 14 Slocan riding .... 15.513 17 42.42771 Rossland riding ..15,298 95 23.9S5 02 Revelstoke rid'g 18.433 29 30,299 47 $ 02,200 32 $113,930 94 COMMUNITY OF INTEREST. It does not seem creditable that live United States Steel Trust would refuse to sell rails to a company which proposes to build a road that will' conflict with railroad interests allied with the steel trust. That is, however, the conclusion reached by the promoters of the Omaha Northern railroad.which is to run from Sioux City. Iowa, to Omaha. Nebraska. A buyer for the new railroad company recently wrote to six houses owned by the steel trust, asking for quotations on rails and expressing the intention to pay cash. Five of the houses replied that no quotation could be made until it was known who the purchaser was and what was his project. The sixth house gave a quotation, but. withdrew it the nf*xt day, stntinsr that no quotation could be made until the real TO SHORTEN DISTANCE TO THE BOUNDARY. The Spokiine Spokesman^Revlew of yesterday has the following regarding future railway extensions by James J. Hill: "The nnnotinccmcnt that-president Hill's Coust- Kontonny road I.s lo have a direct rnnner- filon with the coal Holds at Morrissey, on the Crow's Xest Southern, has led to considerable speculation aniong local railway men as to tlie probable route east from the eastern terminus of the Ar. V. & K. Unless a new road is constructed east from the Spokane Falls & Northern tlie coal from the Morrissey field will Hnd its way via Jennings, Mont.,^.Spokane, Marcus and the AVashington & Great Northern. It is reported that tlie recent extensive yard improvements at Newport, Wash., mean more than the prospective growth or the town. It is said that a survey down the Pend d'Orielle river to a point north of the Box canyon, thence west to a connection with the AVashington & Great Northern is contemplated as a cutot'C for the transportation of coal and coke from Morrissey to the smelters of the Boundary district. The culol- would make a saving of between 30 and 50 miles over the route via Spokiine and thence north over the Spokane Kails & Northern. Aside from this it is claimed that the new road would originate considerable tonnage in the development of the Pend d'Orielle valley, which would result from Die building of the line. It is estimated that several hundred tons daily can be developed from the timber and mining resources of tho valley, besides the agricultural and other industrial possibilities. Just what steps have actually been taken in this direction by the Great Northern officials is unknown. Resident engineer Alex Stuart is on the coast and a statement from him could not be obtained. A Great Northern ollicinl said: "AVhile I do not know anything definite about the proposed Newport-Marcus cutoff, I do not be lieve that such a movejis^cbnteinpiatedjat'f. present. \::. 7;7i84|S��7S7 " "~ T*}��! ,'"-���, "TJiere haye.V^en someiipr^limlnary aur-V ^���,re-"-V:\��r.

"The Great Northern has built three branch lines west-of the Rockies and east of the Cascades within the past three years, and has authorized the Kalispell- Jocko cutoff and the Coast-Kootenay road, which wil be built and in operation within the three ensuing years. ��� Taking these facts into consideration it Is not beyond the bounds of possibility that the Newport- Marcus cutoff may be built. I understand that a feasible route can be had. There is but one divide, and this can be passed at a comparatively easy grade." THE CAUSE IS A AV9RTHY ONE. It is understood that the Catholic Ladl��s" Aid has made arrangements to hold a _falr_Jn__ald__o___S.t. _Joseph's,school on Sep- tember 30th and consecutive days. It is ex*T6cted that Nelsonites without exception will make one grand effort to have this event a marked success. That during the short time the sisters have been In Nelson they have achieved a great and noble work, impresses itself on the most indifferent; that their institution is a decided benefit to the city, no one can deny; and that they have a strong claim on the patronage and support of every Inhabitant of the city- is unquestionable. Perhaps it would interest a few tcf" learn that within tlie two years ending * December 31st, 3901, tho sisters expended in the city limits $22,302.03, and of this sum an Incredibly smnll fraction, hardly one-tenth, was received therefrom in return for their energic and zealous labor. Would not the general public expect that tiie sisters must bo financially- helped from some fixed source in order to . obtain such results? And yet the rules of their institute show they are a non-incorporated body at present, and rely mainly on tlie blessing which attends ardent and untiring endeavor in the path of duty during a life sacrificed in the Interests o�� humanity. Let no one, therefore, say ho Is unable to help. Let those who cannot give anything more substantial, give at least a heartfelt wish that success may crown the efforts of the ladies who are so zealously working in this worthy cause. N.

It is not likely, therefore, that T^e people of Nelson will pay any great to his opinions un so important a stion as operating the tramway as a p'S-'-'Iic utility. The people of Nelson �����"���- different times declared their belief in municipal ownership of public utilities, and have expended $200,000 in purchasing, equipping and extending water-works and electric lighting systems, both of which Avere purchased from incorporated companies and now pay a good return on the capital invested. Were the city to purchase, equip, and extend the street railway system, so as to make it a public convenience, it is not unlikely that the venture would be an unprofitable one to the municipality, or one that would result in loss to individual property owners. The purchase and operation of the street railway by the ulty would abate the irritation and friction that is too often in evidence between the officials of the tramway company, who as middlemen act for the "West Kootenay Power & Light Company, and the city council. The abolition of this irritation and friction would be a distinct gain to the peop]le, who, at times, have not the fullest confidence in some of the men who happen to be elected to the council under the prevailing ward system. The absorption of the tramway system by the city would give the people a free hand to deal directly with the West Kootenay Power & Light Company for the purchase of poAver, which would also be a distinct gain.' The operation of the ,tra-r.wav by the ci>ty- would- result- in- a: much more frequent service, Avhich is entirely practicable, as was shown on Wednesday, when the cars were run on a ten-minute schedule and at an astonishing low rate of fare.

COAT l.lA'lSIi LOCAL AND MINING NEAVS. CRESTON, August .S.���(Special Correspondence.)���Messrs. Sloan and Young, having got good assays from samples from the Lost mine, have returned to vigorously prospect the claim, and further good news from the property may be expected. Frank Aikens and Phil Casey of Port Hill, Idaho, owners of the Montana group of claims on Summit creek, have done considerable work opening up a pay-chute, said to be three feet wide, tho ore in which assays $50 in gold. The ore is free milling. Those who have visited the property claim that it is one of tlie finest showings In the Summit Creek camp, not even excepting the Bayonne. The promptness with which the acting government agent at Nelson ordered repairs made to the trail up Summit creek, which was closed with fallen timber during the recent heavy storm, was appreciated by the prospectors of the Summit Creek camp. The general verdict here is that the money apportioned for roads and trails in the Goat River mining division has been fairly distributed, and that when the work is done there will be no good cause for complaint. The main trouble is that at the last provincial election every voter in Creston except two voted for the successful candidate, and he is not able to give them all jobs as foremen on road or trail work. The British Columbia Exploration Company is repairing the dyke around the Reclamation Farm, and this time the repairs are to be made to withstand exceptional high water. N. D.

There is in our time no historian, no judge, no teacher, who is not continually hindered in his work by the omnipresent lie. For the historian it is made dillieult to separate tlie real facts from the mixture of truth ami lies which his material. The task of tho judge i.s nl- most superhuman, because there i.s always tho possibility that the accused, tho witnesses or the counsel on either or both sides may tell things that are not exactly true and very often barefaced lies, and every teacher and educator knows that truthfulness and sincerity arc the very foundation of all morals, that the child that lies will very often do even worse things, and that the person who does not hate the lie will not have the power to resist the temptations of all kinds which offer themselves to all of us during our life. I shall try to explain the origin and nature of this vice of lying that we find In all classes and in all ages. I shall try to analyze the complicated soul of the person who lies. First of all, let us try to discover how a child begins to lie, what motives drive him to lying and what sophisms he uses to justify his lie, and then afterwards a few words as to how to counteract the lie, how to fight against it and, if possible, how to drive it out. How does a child become a liar, how does it discover how to lie, ana how does it get into the habit of lying? The child in its very first years neither lies nor simulates; its thoughts, its ideas, its feelings are immediately transformed into acts. This is the great, natural, primitive law. Every idea, every desire immediately becomes an act. The net is only the idea, left to itself and following its natural course, and this is what we see in all impulsive or ail hypnotized persons whose personal will power is not strong enough to control. In the child all thoughts are immediately expressed in movements, in cries or later KOOTENAY LAKE STEAMBOATS Hal four, Pilot Bay, Ainsworth Kaalo and all Way Landings.

Although those Avho favored the passage of the by-law were well organized and polled their full vote, public sentiment was against the proposal of giving the tramway the right to operate its cars for three months a year. The people who held these views were without organization; they did not spend a dollar for hacks or for workers. They had no pull, .but they, had the good sense to know that the by-law under consideration Avas not a good thing for Nelson. The tramway company is now in the position that it must either operate its cars continuously or forfeit its franchise. If it forfeits its franchise the city will be in a position to make a deal for the property on a basis of its actual value and not on what it cost, a cost which undoubtedly included considerable sums that did not go into construction account. The tramway outfit is worth /about $15,000, and the city could afford to pay that much for it. It could be operated as a public utility, and even if it did not pay operating expenses, the city would not be continually publishing statements to that effect, and thus advertising the fact that Nelson is not a good place in which to invest capital. The sooner the city gets rid of the tramway company the better; and the sooner the tramway company gets rid of its tramway the sooner v/ill its real estate investments in Nelson pay fair dividends on the whole of the capital it has invested in Nelson. point of view the difference i.s almost imperceptible, because both are in contrast to tho truth. It is very natural that the child should discover the He through playing���it is suf- licent that it sees tlie grown people sire taken in once or twice, that it discovers always constitute ��� tlml " C!Ul fo��* ,ls* '* nm'JM itself over our credulity, and then it will soon know how to lie. The second moment is the teaching of lying by example, the revelation that the lie is not only tlie possible but real, that it is practiced by the persons that surround it, and what is the worst of all, by its own parents. AVe all lie before our children; we all tell any number of fibs that we consider excusable; we let the servants tell that we are out, when wo are at home; wo compliment people to their face and criticise them behind their back; we say that we arc delighted to see a person, whom we do not care to see at all. These tolerated lies are sufficient, the example is set, but stili worse is it when a child is made an accomplice in a lie, as when a mother will say to a child: "Now, you must not tell papa anything' about this." To treat a child this way, to teach it that things may be done, but not told, is to show It the straight road to moral ruin. The third moment comes when the child faces its first conflict with society. It already knows that lying is possible; that it is practiced by almost everybody, and it now discovers that lying is, so to speak, necessary. Every child makes its start in life with perfect candor and sincerity; it says everything that it thinks and feels; It' immediately transforms its impressions Into words and acts; it wears absolutely no mask. But very, very soon it discovers that this will not do. Sooner or later it suffers for its frankness. In the first place its own parents will show their dissatisfaction, will tell it that it must not repeat everything that it hears or say everything that it feels. They do not directly teach it to lie, but they do teach it that to be sincere in everything is to make yourself ridiculous, to say the least. Very soon the child learns not onlv to conceal its real feelings, but also to "pretend feelings that it does not possess; it soon learns that confidence is abused; that promises are given, only to be broken; that the whole social life is one rotten, hollow, empty shell. Thus the child learns that absolute sincerity, absolute straightforwardness is an utter impossibility, that there are many reasons why it must be impossible; that politeness forbids us to bo truthful; that modesty and policy are continually lighting sincerity, and the child becomes a conventional liar a.s everybody around it is. After this comes the critical point. Will the child stop here, will it not slide further down, will it understand to go beyond the line of these necessary conventional lies? Until now the child is still relatively sincere, it has seen that lying is possible, that its own parents are guilty of lying almost every day. It has even seen that lying is necessary. But how prevent it from becoming what society calls a liar? Education has much to do with this. It is very important that the educators understand when to punish and when to not. Tlie child that gets into the habit of lying is very often the child who is too often and too severely punished by its parents or its teachers. The child who is always afraid of punishment, the child who is beaten for tlie smallest offense, will very soon find out that if it confesses having done something wrong it is sure to be punished. The first and second time he offends he may have the courage to admit frankly that he has done wrong, but very soon he will begin to conceal, partly because he is afraid of the humiliation and partly because he does not want to shock his parents, or his friends, or to cause them any unnecessary sorrow, and lying becomes easier every timo it is practiced, and at last a person will lie at the very smallest temptation and even without any temptation at all, hardly realizing himself that he is not telling the truth, and when It comes to this point it is only a very strong character that will be able to redeem a person. These are the different reasons that make a sincere child or person become a liar, and the most prominent of them is the desire to appear to be living a respectable life, when you know you are not. The lie is a mask that we wear when wo do not want people to see us as we nre; we get into the habit of lying when there are too �� many things in our life that we are ashamed of and that we dare not admit. ��� ������ E.

In southeast Kootenay the coal mines are working full forces and a number of men are prospecting for coal and- oil lands. In northeast Kootenay there is considerable activity in mine development, and more than the usual activity in the lumbering industry. In the section of AVest Kootenay of which Revelstoke is the centre, times are good. In the Lardeau and Trout Lake districts, judging from the reports appearing in the two local newspapers, there never was more activity. This is largely due to the fact that development work on the gold-bearing ledges on Fish creek is proving them to be good, and to the fact that shipments can be made from the mines around Ferguson on payment of a fair transportation rate, now that tbe C. P. It. is operating its branch between Lardc and the lower end of Trout lake in connection with a steamer running from the lower end of the lake to Trout Lake City. Around the different camps in the Slocan there is marked improvement. In what is known as the Nelson district, a doz��n atlnos art shipping ora. WHO RECEIVES THE SALARY?

If Mr. Crease does not receive the salary, then who does? Mr. Crease says he does not in the following letter: TO THE EDITOR OF THE NELSON TRIBUNE���Sir: You are in error AVhen you state that I receive $500 yearly as a stipendiary magistrate for Kootenay district. Having been repeatedly called upon to take provincial cases in an ex- officio capacity, I av.-is finally appointed a stipendiary magistrate in January, 1899, since Avhich time I have taken nearly all the provincial cases tried here. The remuneration has only been the fees derived. Eight-tenths of the cases tried have been either preliminary cases, where there have been committals, or summary matters, where .the accused parties have been found guilty and sent to jail. The preliminary trials have always occupied a considerable time. In both these instances, I have not received any remuneration whatever. In summary matters, also, there have often been dismissals, and such dismissals have usually been under the nature of the circumstances Avithout costs.

Its body is the perfect and constant expression of its inner self. " How is it, then, possible that a child may take up the habit of lying? In this passing from the primitive sincerity to mendacity we are able to discover "a^cerfaih"humb"er^f"m^nients7 -"* First the child discovers the lie, then it notices that lying is practiced all around it, then that lying is useful or even necessary, and, finally, it starts to lie itself. The child first discovers the lie by playing. To play is to live in a world of dreams, of unreality, of illusion. To play is to transform the monotonous reality into an alluring notion, which is more in accord with the desires of the soul of the child. A little girl, for instance, plays with her doll and tells that she has a baby, that lt will soon grow, and that it begins to talk and so on. Prom this to the lying tho step is very short, and what proves this is that wo are often deceived ourselves. A child will come to us crying, saying that another child has struck it, or has taken its toys, and we believe in It, until suddenly the child will burst out laughing and tell us that it was all said for fun.

MILLS ON THE DOLLAR AT "Mayor Fletcher and aldermen Hamilton, Irving, Moiirison, Scanlan, and Selous, assisted by hospital directors Byers, Johnstone, and Lay, opened last Monday's session of the cily council. In addition to tlie above-named gentlemen, there were present the short-hand reporter, the editor of the Nelson Economist, the city clerk, the city engineer, and the chief of the lire department. The long-hand journalist was not present at the opening, as lie was in attendance at a meeting of local capitalists who expect to soon become multi-millionaires through owning undeveloped coal lands somewhere east of the Rockies. AVhen the long-hand journalist arrived at tlie council meeting, the mayor and alderman Irving were having a warm discussion, ��� in which tlio mayor was trying to make the alderman believe that he (the mayor) had not s"aid the doctors of Nelson were all alike; that they were all grafters. The alderman had rather the best of the discussion, and the mayor for the time subsided. AVhat had taken place before his arrival, the long-hand journalist is un-, willing to say in print. What took place after his arrival is as follows: Alderman Selous���I want to see the ffn- ance committee do tho investigating, as the question is one that affects the city's, finances. Alderman Hamilton���Them's my sentiments too., lt will be better for all concerned, therefore let the question of a grant be referred to the linance committee. Alderman Irving���The question should be referred to an independent committee, one in no way connected with either the hospital board or the council. Alderman Scanlan���The question caij only be settled by a fair investigation, and the sooner it is threshed out the better. Hospital Director Byers���As a member of the hospital board I court the fullest investigation Into the way the board is conducting the affairs of the hospital. 1 believe the board have done right, and as far as 1 am concerned, I will do my best to make the investigation a thorough one and the sooner it is held the better. Mayor Fletcher���Alderman Scanlan and myself are members of the hospital board and we should not be on an investigating committee. If we do not attend, aldermen Irving and Hamilton will have to do all the investigating. Alderman Scanlan���I suggest that a special committee, made up of aldermen "Morrison, Selous, and Hamilton, be appointed to make the investigation. Alderman Selous objected, saying he had been doing too much investigating lately. Tho Omayor hero interjected a remark, which "brought the following' retort from alderman Irving: "I, have got your own statement for it, Mr. Mayor, that the doctors are grafters," The mayor tried to wriggle out of the hole alderman Irving had chased him into, but it was no go; so he stopped explaining what he had intended to say when he said the doctors were all a lot of grafters. At this stage, alderman Hamilton wanted to withdraw his motion that the matter be referred to the finance committee; but ���alderman Selous would not listen to it as seconder. Hospital Director Johnstone���AAliat the hospital directors want is an investigation held so that the proceedings can be taken down by reporters and printed in the newspapers. The public maintain the hospital and they should know how it is being managed. Alderman Irving���I suggest that the investigation be held by police magistrate . Crease of by judge Forin. Mayor Fletcher���Judge Forin was lately a director of the hospital. Hospital Director Byers���I do not think the directors care who is appointed on the committee of investigation. So far as I am concerned, judge Forin would be as satisfactory as anyone else. Mayor Fletcher���I believe a special meeting of the council should be held to investigate the question. Alderman Hamilton���I am willing to change my motion so that the committee of investigation will be made up of the whole council, instead of the finance committee. __ This motion was finally adopted, and hospital "directors J6hTfstShe^^I^ay^"���Arid, Byers silently, left the council chamber in Indian file. The finance committee's report was then read by the city clerk. The accounts, aggregating $2.1a'J.5G, were adopted without a word being said; but when it came to clause 2, which recommended that 75 per cent, of the city printing be given to the Daily News and the remaining 25 per cent, to the other offices, a discussion arose that lasted half an hour. In advocating the clause, alderman Irving contended that the Daily News was an industrial enterprise that gave steady employment to not less than ten men; that it was a business that benefited the city, and its suspension would be a loss. He said, "We have been granting bonuses to concerns that would, if carried on, give employment to fewer men than the Daily News employs, and un application is now before the people from a company for favors, a company that does not employ as many men as the Daily News." Alderman Selous���AA*"ere not tenders called for the city printing? Alderman Scanlan���I do not think wo authorized tenders to be called for, but we did ask for a return to bo made as to the amounts we had paid for city printing this year; but, somehow, we don't get these returns when we ask for them. Alderman Hamilton���The understanding at the fore part of the year was that the daily paper (meaning the defunct Miner) was to get the advertising and the job work was to go to the Economist. , As the election of four of the aldermen who sit on the council was opposed by both the defunct Miner and the Economist, the statement of alderman Hamilton must be taken with a grain of salt. Alderman Scanlan���AA'hy shouldn't the same argument hold good in distributing the city printing as was used, sometime ago, in distributing the team work on the streets. It was then contended that the men who had a large number of teams should be shown more consideration than the men who had only one team. The mayor looked sadly at the city clerk, as much as to say, what is alderman Scanlan driving at? I never wanted to give my friend AA'illiams all the city teaming; no, never! Alderman Selous then tried to explain that the proposed arrangement would not be to the advantage of the Dally News; ���that it had already been given all the ad vertising, which was the best paying part ot" the business. He then made quite a lengthy speech on the cost of the different kinds of printing and the profits made. All of whicli was very edifying to the long-hand Journalist who sat just across the table from the worthy alderman. Mayor Fletcher���1 don't like these things to be brought up here. Alderman Selous���Neither do 1. Mayor Fletcher���We have been trying to work the thing equitably, giving all the printing offices a share of the work. 1 suppose this clause in the report is merely figurative. Alderman Scanlan���No, It is not merely figurative. AVe mean what we say. If it is merely figurative why was the statement the council asked for some timo ago not laid before tlie finance committee? The mayor put the question as to whether the clause would stand as part of the report and alderman Selous said: "I think it is unnecessary and I vote no." Aldermen Morrison, Scanlan, and Irving voted yea, and * alderman Hamilton and tho mayor wore silent. The clause stood. The city has paid out $IS7.54 since January 1st for printing, namely: "Nelson Miner $1S1,99, Dally News $taS.55, Nelson Economist $114, and AV. H. Jones $33. The clause regarding the rate of taxation was next considered. " > Alderman Selous wanted the rate for school levied on the improvements as well as on the land. He claimed if this was dono. it would bring $1,000 more into the city treasury. Alderman Hamilton agreed with alderman Selous, and In addition said the schools must stand on their own bottom. If we do not make them stand on their own bottom this year we will have to do it later on. Mayor Fletcher���In what way are you figuring?. Alderman Selous���The improvements aro assessed at $500,000 or over and 2 mills on that amount would amount to $1,000. Mayor Fletcher���O, I see! Alderman Scanlan���I certainly believe the land should bear the burthen of taxation. Alderman Irving���1 am of the opinion that the policy that has been pursued ever since the town was incorporated is the best one. Improvements have not been taxed, as the occupiers of improved premises pay the city large sums in Indirect taxes, such as sewer rentals, water rates, electric light rates, and licenses. It is the improvements that make a town, and not vacant lots. The question was put on motion of alderman Morrison, seconded by alderman Irving, and carried by the votes of Irving, Morrison, and Scanlan. Alderman Selous voted no, and the mayor and.. alderman Hamilton did not vote. Clause 3 of the report was adopted. Clause 1 was discussed. Aldermen Irving and Hamilton favoring it, and alderman Scanlan and Selous opposing. Those who favored the clause standing contended that people who beautified their premises should be encouraged in the good work, and that there was not as much water used in watering lawns as was used in wetting down sidewalks on Baker and other streets. Alderman Selous���The amount charged'is ludicrously small, and its payment cannot work a hardship on anyone. Alderman Irving���I have just been informed by the long-hand journalist, who is an ex-mayor, that the recommendation of the finance committee is out of order, as the water works by-law canont be amended by simply adopting a clause in a committee's report. Mayor Fletcher���O. we can make rebates at any time; we have always been doing it The mayor should read By-laws SI and 84, and after he does so carefully he will undoubtedly be convinced that neither he nor the council have any right to make any rebates on water ��� rates without first amending the by-laws.which regulate the water works system and the. supply of water. The clause was struck out on motion of alderman Morrison seconded by alderman Scanlan. The next question considered was a letter from the chief of the fire department calling attention to the fact that the grass, weeds, and brush cut on ths residence streets had not been removed, and t' if ~i t^vffs~7iorThef^ a fire be started. The city engineer wns ordered to give his earnest attention to the matter. A letter was read from the Independent Order of Foresters asking that a water pipe be laid to their plot in the city cemetery. Quite a lengthy discussion ensued, during which the mayor and city clerk had a quiet confab at ono end ot the tabic, and the short-hand reporter and the editor of the Economist held another at the other end. The long-hand journalist and alderman Morrison appeared ns if they were asleep. Finally, the question of getting a supply of water to the future graves of dead Foresters was left to the city engineer. Tenders were opened for supplying the city with service boxes for the water system. There wero tour tenders. Two were from outside houses and two from local houses. Alderman Selous said: "O, give it to a local man; the difference Is only a few dollars anyway." On motion of alderman Scanlan, the tender of the J. H. Ashdown Hardware Company, Limited, of Nelson, was accepted, their bid being $1.30 each for one size and $1.'15 each for another size, as against McLachlan Brothers' bid of $1.G0 and $1.75. Alderman Scanlan called attention to the condition of some of the stone crossings on Baker street, and said they were dangerous when driven over fast. Mayor Fletcher���Yes; they icre very bad. I don't like that system myself. The city engineer tried to explain what he had intended doing to repair the crossings, but was interupted by the mayor, who said: "They ought to bo filled in. They are very bad. It is a funny thing; those flagstones all turn up on the outside of the crossings. I asked the city engineer to fix those crossings particularly. I will look into the matter with the city engineer and have the matter attended to. The mayer suggested that the council resolve itself into the board of health to consider the report of the medical health officer, who was present. Alderman Morrison���Before doing this, I would like the council to take up the question of tho Rossland labor excursion. Mayor Fletcher���What action would you suggest? Alderman Morrison���I would suggest that the council grant a sufficient sum for prizes for athletic sports. Alderman Hamilton���I do not altogether see why the council should shoulder all these affairs. Tho citizens should take it up. Alderman Selous���I do not think it is the province of the council. .Poor little Slocan City has made a bid to get it, and great big Nelson should not make an effort to beat them out. If we can offer them no better attraction than the Nelson baseball team, we had better leave them alone. Alderman Scanlan���There could be a drilling contest. Alderman Hamilton���The citizens have not made a move in the matter. Mayor Fletcher���I have not heard that a move has been made. Alderman Irving���We are, through the Tourist Association, making efforts to bring individual tourists to Nelson, why not make an effort, to bring a train load of miners and their friends from Rossland? Mayor Fletcher���Miners are not tourists. Alderman Scanlan���They will be tourists for a day. Alderman Morrison���I move that $500 be granted for the purpose and that a committee be appointed to make the arrangements. Alderman Scanlan���IwIIl not stand for more than a grant of $100, the remainder to be subscribed by the citizens. At this point the long-hand journalist got sleepy and quit the council chamber. the money waiting for them. The company recently sent up four cases of overalls, etc., to the Yukon, and plenty of orders are available.- In fact this business looks like one that should grow considerably, and the new factory reflects much credit on the Turner-Beeton Company.

On Wednesday an election was hold iu Nelson to ratify a by-law which allowed the tramway company to hold its franchise if it only operated its cars three months in each year until the cily had a population of S.000. There wore two polling places. That for the East ward was held in the city hall, whero the city clerk was returning ollicer and S. McLeod clerk. Ju the AVest ward, Iho polling place was In AVard Brothers' office, and police magistrate Crease wus deputy returning ollicer, with A. P. Hay clerk. In the East ward AV. A. Macdonald, Charles A. AVaterman, and John Patterson were scrutineers for the tramway company, and in the AA'est Ben Mighton acted in a like capacity. There were hacks in evidence and a ten-minute service on the tramway, but no undue excitement. The tramway people worked hard, and got out a full vote. Those opposed to the by-law voted and then went about their business. The only incident worthy of note occurred at the East ward about half an hour before the polls closed. An Italian presented himself and asked for a ballot. The tramway scrutineers objected, claiming the Italian was an alien. The returning officer knew that the Italian had become a duly naturalized British subject four years ago, and said so. The tramway scrutineers withdrew their objections, and the Italian then informed the returning officer that he was unable to read English and wanted his ballot marked. The returning officer tried to explain the question, and made his explanation so involved that the Italian he- HOTEL PHAIR 80 ROOMS AH Njodern Conveniences E."

Fire chief Lillie called tho attention of the council to the fact that the brush, grass, and trees cut on streets had been left where cut, and as thoy became dry they were a source of danger in case of a fire, and recommended that the same be removed as soon as possible. Stanley and Victoria Streets, JvJiLSON, B.C. I' HAVE SUBSTITUTED AVHITE LABOR FOR CHINESE. Ex-alderman II. B. Thomson of Nolson, who is now manager of the Turner-Beeton Company of Victoria, sends word to Tho Tribune that his company has started a factory for the manufacture of shirts and overalls, and that only white labor will be employed. The factory Is situated ln Bastion square, occupying the first floor of the block on the corner of Bastion and AVharf streets. Previous to the establishment of this factory the work was given out to Chinamen, but now about 20 girls are employed at good wages, and there is room for more of them. The two rooms which compose the factory are large, airy and scrupulously clean, the walls and ceiling being whitewashed. At a long table with some thirty sewing machines at reasonable distances apart, are seated about 20 young women, fully occupied in watching the machines, which are run by power at the rate of 2,000 stitches per minute. It is head work and not hand work. The factory is practically a union shop, all the employees being organized by. the Garment AVorkers' Union, and the label has been applied for and will shortly be affixed ti the garments produced. Thomas AValker, manager of the factory, was himself largely responsible for the organization of the employees, being satisfied of the advantages that will ultimately accrue therefrom to the company as well as to the girls. The company has signed the union agreement, and the girls have elected to be paid by the day at a rate satisfactory to the union. The eight hour day is the rule, with a half holiday on Saturday afternoons. Any overtime work Is optional, and is paid according to the union rates. At present there is room for eight more girls, but in spite of the advantages offered by the factory, the young women of Victoria do not seem in a hurry to go in and earn TREMONT HOUSE European and American P'an.

That is rather a primitive, exaggerated way of expressing tlie matter; but much truth underlies the homely old maxim, when you note the extravagant waste and woeful want in many households, realizing only too well wherein the trouble lies. For no matter how lavish a frugal man may be with his money outside of his home, he rarely, or in very exceptional cases, has anything to do with the housekeeping expenditures beyond paying tlie bills. An exceedingly capable young matron, one whose husband was progressive in his affairs financially to a surprising degree to onlookers, recently made some practical remarks relative to this subject, which gave an insight into the inner workings of domestic science that would materially lighten the cares of many anxious housekeepers, if a few of her theories were heeded and practiced. "The housekeeping all belongs exclusively to a woman," she said. "Your husband really knows very little about it, or whether you spend his salary judiciously or nof. If he is a kind, considerate person, he eats' what is placed before him without questioning the cost of the material used. "AVhat man realizes whether one or one dozen eggs were used in the cake which he consumes at luncheon, or if you buy cheaper cuts of meat and utilize the possibilities of your meat-chopper in making them palatable? Or again, if all of the odds and ends in culinary use are made the most of by being served up in dainty dishes, instead of thrown out, as so many- do? It is the same through all of the minor details of home management, for it - is unquestionably the little foxes which spoil tlie vines. And in the small things lies the secret of the wise housekeeper's generalship." lt did not seem at all strange that this woman's husband should bo one of the most prosperous young men in the community. Another struggling young husband came In mind���one who was kind, thrifty and industrious, a splendid manager in every sense of the word where he was concerned or could control tlie household expenses; yet the haggard, care-worn look on his kindly face was a constant anxiety to his friends. His business opportunities at the starting point had been fully equal if not better than the other man's; but he had long been surpassed in the race by the seemingly more fortunate person, and an insight of his home-keeping affairs told the story. His wife was incidentally heard to say, "AVe always have angel food at our house twice a week; the children like It to piece on, and what are eleven eggs when eggs are cheap?".It i.s a very small, apparantly insignificant illustration, but volumes may be read.between the lines. In each family there were 'three daughters. One family was growing rich, happy and prosperous, with every necessary comfort; while the second family' struggled continually against adverse circumstances. There was the same noticeable difference in respect to the children's clothing, where the judicious mother dressed her little girls neatly and tastily in dainty ginghams and percales, which would launder and retain a fresh appearance until worn out. The other children wore cheap, sleazy silk waists and cloth skirts of corresponding texture, to school, the mother explaining that the dainty colored silks were so pretty and cheap, for it only cost fifty cents per yard, and two yards were sufficient���what was one dollar for a waists? She did not realize in tha least that this same dollar would have bought at least three dimity waists, which could have been laundered repeatedly? keeping the small wearer neat and wholesome for a long time, where the other waist was soiled and ruined after a few- weeks' wear. It seems sometimes that good, sound common sense, with the ability to apply it in daily use, is the greatest boon that can be bestowed on womankind, especially so if the environments surrounding her include limited means. In many households you witness the unnecessary struggle with adverse circumstances. In many homes carping caro reigns supreme, because widely divergent ends refuse to meet and the purse fails to supply the demands of the family needs. This might all so frequently be avoided if only common sense, the talisman to prosperity, and also of most happiness, was fastened to the helm. The hand which guides this tiller, too,.- is the housewife's, and whether she fails in her efforts, either through Inability or from a wilful disregard of the minor details of the work entrusted to her care, the results are relatively the same; and the home life, is either made or marred thereby. Yet there is the trite old adage, which caries encouragement in every syllable to the woman who desires to be a prudent housekeeper, "she is never too old to learn," and the small economies which make up the sum of practical housekeeping, are possible to her if she holds to tho determination of conscientiously making the most of her opportunities.

Ex-mayor Houston, who was present, tried to help the returning officer .and became,involved.in a dispute with the tramway scrutineers. The Italian looked as if he was looking for "Jack" Hamilton, but the alderman from the AVest ward was not in evidence. Finally, the returning officer asked the Italian if he was "for" or "against" the by-law, and the Italian answered that he wanted the cars to run all winter. That answer was not satisfactory, and he was again put through the sweat- box. He looked at the ceiling and then at the ballot-paper and said he would vote "for" the by-law. The tramway scrutineers laughed, and the ex-mayor look a walk and had his laugh when tho ballots wero counted. AVhen the ballots wore counted the vote stood: For. Against.

He is accompanied by his wife. Pon^MeBeathj-ofJ-Washburnr"Wiscori3irtr is at the Queen's. Mr. McBeath is a brother of "Dave" McBeath's, the .well- known railway contractor. A. H. Fingland, foreman of the Monitor mine at Three--Forks, was in Nelson during the week. The Monitor is among the best properties in tho Slocan. Tho Nelson High School opened the fall term with over 40 pupils in attendance, which makes the Nelson school the third in importance in the province. During the week J. A. Sayward shipped three carloads of lumber and two carloads of shingles from his mills at Pilot Bay to Lacombe, Bed Deer, Calgary, and Macleod. Tho Nelson Saw & Planing Mills, Limited, are making additions to their plant. A now engine will be added, so as to give the sawmill more power; trimmers, so that lumber can be sent to the Northwest In exact lengths; a dry kiln with a capacity of 100,000 feet. The mills will be started up next week and run to their full capacity. The wind storm on Wednesday did considerable damage to llowers and fruit trees in Nelson. Many of the fruit trees, although young, are heavily laden with fruit this year, and the storm did more damage in causing the fruit to drop than it did ln breaking limbs. The storm was also felt on the lake, some of the C. P. R. barges and boats having to run to shelter. Although the statement is not published by authority of any of the tramway officials, it is said that a cable was received in Nelson from London to stop the car service here on Sunday night, the last day of August. As the company has already stopped the service twice before this year, the two-months limit is near an end, and when the total for the year amounts to two mouths the company will have forfeited Its franchise. "Sam" Neelands, who went to South Africa with the last Canadian contingent, is back in Nelson looking as if driving Boers had agreed with him. He was in the Hart's river fight, where his company ��� made so gallant a stand. In that fight the Boers thought they had surrounded a column made up principally of Imperial Yeomanry and would have a soft snap, as the Imperial Yeomanry had the reputation of surrendering without fighting. "Sam" says general Buller stands very high in the estimation of both the Boer and British soldiers, not only as a stubborn fighter, but as a general who took good care of his men. The Boers surrendered because Kitchener had proctically driven them into corners from which they could not escape. T. P. Moran returned this week from the Fish creek country, which he claims is developing into a good mining district. Sidney Nolan, who has been at Elko and Frank with .P. Burns & Co., has returned to Nelson for another stay in the head offlce of that Arm. R. F. Green, M. P. P., of Kaslo, was in Nelson on Monday. He reports business as fairly active at Kaslo, and that the merging of four of Kaslo's mercantile houses into a limited liability, company has resulted in a saving that equals 10 per cent, on an investment of ?70,000. The Borden party will address public meetings at Victoria on September Sth, Vancouver on the 9th, New Westminster on the 10th, Revelstoke on the 12th and 13th, Nelson on the 15th, and Rossland on the 16th. From Rossland the party will proceed to Banff, Alberta, where they will take the waters of that famous health resort. Mayor Fletcher has called a special meeting of the city council today to investigate the affairs of the Kootenay Lake General Hospital Society, of which he is chairman. Those who desire that the investigation should be thorough claim that due notice should have been given of the date on which the council would hold the investigation. It is said that the society has over ?7,000 due it from pay patients. Fred Starkey returned Thursday from a trip to Winnipeg and other points in Manitoba. He says Manitoba is booming because of the good crops and the thousands of American who are looking for land. The politicians now in power in Manitoba are reaping a harvest and overlooking nothing. Mr. Starkey says that, in his *0plriibripTriVIsynT73aIy^ a short time ago to take up his residence in Winnipeg, is not mentioned as a probable member of the Roblin government. The Slocan Drill is quite wrathy because Nelson took steps to Induce the miners of Rossland to spend Labor Day in Nelson. A business man of Nelson on returning from a trip to Rosland said that the minors of that city were undecided where to go on Labor Day, and he suggested that tlie people of Nelson make an effort to get them. By the time steps could be taken, the Rossland people hn,d decided to go to Slocan City. As soon as. this became known In Nelson, tho matter was dropped by the peoplo of Nelson. No one but a churl would slang people for doing what the citizens'of Nelson did. The Sisters of St. Joseph school opened the fall term last week with 7a pupils.

PETER THE MAN WHO DEFEATED WHITE. Among the tourists visiting Nelson this week was Thomas Mackie of Pembroke, Ontario. Mr. Mackie is a Liberal and sits in the house of commons as member for North Renfrew. The flrst time he stood for election he defeated Peter White, who was speaker, and the wiseacres predicted the country would go to smash, but it didn't and Mr. Mackie was easily reelected for a second term. "Tom" as his friends call him, is a millionaire and he made his money on the Ottawa river as a lumberman. He has the credit of being, in the early days, the best hewer "that ever went into the woods along the Ottawa.

Title | The Nelson Tribune |
Publisher | Nelson, B.C. : Tribune Publishing Company |
Date Issued | 1902-08-30 |
Description | The Tribune was published in Nelson, in the Central Kootenay region of southeastern British Columbia, and ran from November 1892 to November 1905. The Tribune was published and edited by John Houston, an outspoken journalist who would later embark on a successful political career, which included four terms as the mayor of Nelson and two terms in the provincial legislature. Houston had established the Miner in Nelson in 1890, and, after leaving the Miner in the summer of 1892, he established the Tribune to compete with his former paper. In August 1901, the title of the paper was changed to the Nelson Tribune. |
