When the case for the prosecution was concluded, J, A. Macdonald asked that the defendant be either acquitted and exonerated or be sent up for trial when the accused's character might be thoroughly cleared up before the higher court. His client had already suffered severely in the matter and he desired that if possible t here should be no doubt about his innocence of the serious charge laid against him. Lewis went into the witness stand and stood a searching examination for several hours. At the conclusion the magistrate announced the acquital of the accused, who was at once warmly congratulated by his many friends in court. Lewis has always been very favorably known in Trail and his friends have always expressed perfect confidence in his innocence.

Greenwood, Oct. 2.—A phenomenal smelter record for a single blast furnace was established yesterday, when the local plant put out 484 tons during 24 hours ending at 6 o'clock this morning. Of this amount, 432 tons were ore and the balance, 12 per cent, coke. The furnace of the British Columbia Copper company was built with a nominal capacity to treat 225 tons per day, but owing to the self- fluxing character of lhe ore, the daily J&verage comes nearer 390 tons. Paul Johnson, manager of tho smelter department, believes yesterday's run establishes a record in blast furnace work. ALLBUTTWOQUIT The Workers From Win- nipeg Le ve.

They were a weary lot of men who did not Beem best pleased as they learned what the real situation was in this camp. Many of the party complained that they had been brought through here under direct misrepresentation, they having been told that the strike was over, and that no labor troubles existed. Seven of the party refused point blank to go up to the mines on their arrival last night, and four of those who went up tried to get back to town early in the evening. These men say they were prevented and turnad back by a "special" who demanded asigned pass before he would let them come on down town. ThiB morning the necessary passes, were handed out and the union men say that all but two of the party have quit the job for good. Along with Ingram at Winnipeg was Yates, a watchman at the Le Roi offices. Tho men say that Yates Bhipped as one of the party and that he did his best to hold them but that just as soon as the true facts about the strike situation became known, the men refused to work and walked down the hill. Apparently the "Young Ontario Harvester" has a mind of his own. THE RACING YESTERDAY What the London Papers Say This Morning—Shamrock Is Improving. Krutolanltt Geta a Job.

An Ottawa despatch nominates Mr. Ralph Smith as the first representative from British Columbia in the cabinet at Ottawa, he is to h ave the portfolio of labor, now administered by the postmaster general, but proposed to be made a separate department. Mr. Smith is the head of the labor organizations for the whole dominion, and as such would be the most acceptable man to fill the position when a minister of labor is to be chosen. If by the fortunate chance of his labor leadership Mr. Smith can become a member of the cabinet, the fact will be of great value to British Columbia, whose claims to recognition in ordinary course have been so long ignored.—Columbian. Ralph Smith, M. P., has been elected president of the Dominion Trade and Labor congress, and those who have met him will have no hesitation in commending this action. He is an eminently safe man, and if all trades unionists were equally moderate the cause which they advocate would progress more rapidly than it has done.—Brandford Expositor. BAD NEWS. Clark.

O. box 558, Rossland, B. C THE LAW. It seems rather a .pity that if the Le Roi company are such keen up holders of law and order that they should continue to set such an exceedingly bad example to the union miners in the matter of the alien labor law. The company is a deliberate law breaker in this respect and continues day by day to set the law at open defiance. How then can Bernard Macdonald's newspaper, with any confidence, appeal to the authorities to enforce one set of laws when the com par y is busily engaged in daily breaking another? Is the Le Roi company above the law of the land, or doesitcount upon the compliance of the authorities with the course it is pursuing? If the Le Roi company really desires that law and order should prevail here at the present time let it abstain from being the chief offender, and set us all an example in the matter. ; A PRIZE SCAB HERDER. Some men after repeated failure in their chosen line of work suddenly attain success antl subsequent greatness by simply seeking out an entirely new line of business. Recalling ex-Chief Ingram's record here and in Winnipeg as chiei thief catcher, no one would accuse him of being an unqualified success in either city, as witness the method and manner in which both his positions left him. As scab herder for the Le Roi mines the ex-chief may possibly succeed in making a new record for himself and one which will completely outshine any of his former triumphs, but this new Le Roi official Bhould not be allowed to mislead men in inducing them to come here under the impression that the labor troubles are all over and the strike settled. Some twenty men were run in here by the ex-chief last night, and it was only too plain that some at least of these men had been greatly deceived as to the real situation in this camp. There were no miners among the group, and as the Winnipeg papers have taken the matter up ex-Chief Ingram will have to gather _in hiB next harvest at some widely different point. ARBITRATION. Like many of the leading papers on both sides of politics in this country the Toronto Mail and Empire thinks that some means must be devised to settle industrial disputes other than strikes and lockouts. Speaking of the cost of strikes and the wisdom of arbitration the Mail and Empire says: The lesson of these figures is not alone for the wage-earner. He possesses a weapon, which is highly destructive both to those who use it and to those against whom it is directed. He cannot be deprived of that weapon, but he may be induced to be less reckless in the use of it. Those who have to do with employment of labor can be just as unreasonable at times as the extremest among the operatives. A great many misunderstandings arise and are aggravated because capitalists, or their repro- sentativen, refuse to listen to those who are chosen, in some cases un willingly, as the spokesmen of labor. It may happen, as it sometimes does, that the spokesman, lacking the tact of a diplomatist, is too direct and gruff in hiB approaches to the employer. This causes friction that brings on open war. To obviate this, permanent machinery has in some caaes been provided so that all disputes may go to those accustomed to the adjustment of industrial misunderstandings. This seems to be a reasonable and proper course, yet it has been proved that tho creation of special machinery to deal wilh disputed points brings on a crop of grievances that would otherwise nover have sprouted. In spite of this disadvantage, however, the figures show that conciliation, oven if troublesome, will stop an enormous loss to labor and capital. Recognizing this the suggestion has been advanced by the Dominion Trades and Labor council that arbitration should be made compulsory in Canada. If acted upon this would imply the power of the state to prohibit strikes and lockouts and to inforce the decisions of arbitrators against employed as well as employers. Is labor prepared to concede this? Would it not consider the cure as bad as the disease? Whatever view may be taken of these questions it iB obvious that the day of the s trike, as a means of intelligent adjusting labor disputes is about ended. Some other less costly and more effective remedy is urgently needed. NOTES AND COMMENTS. Yesterday's drifting match proved nothing but it was a fair offsGt to the first day's racing.

Green, Prop President Smith of the Trades and Labor Congress in his excellent annual address to that bony expressed himself in favor of trying a compulsory arbitration measure in« Canada. This means, of course, that the Legislative Assemblies of the different provinces will be asked to take action, because it is well understood that with the provinces rather than with the Federal authority the jurisdiction in this matter lies. President Smith, in his address, repeats the declaration which was made by the Congress one year ago, and it is' interesting at least to know that in this matter the Congress has taken a view antagonistic to that of tbe American Federation of Labor and the British Trades a nd Labor Congress. There seems, however, no reason why the experiment should not be tried, and to this end an act might well be passed applying compulsory arbitration to disputed between all corporations holding franchise, and their employes. There are good reasons why an exception might be mado of this kind, and if tho principle is found to work satisfactorily when thus applied its operation might bo further extended.—Brantford Expositor. Having Been the wage scale current in other parts of the Kootenay for the same kinds of labor we are enabled to state that the wage offered in Winnipeg iB below the scale and Buch as miners and laborers in British Columbia will accept, considering it unfair, with the high cost of living and other conditions. With Mongolian labor to compete with and an alien labor law almost useless, labor in British Columbia has much to contend with. If the bureau has acted in ignorance such ignorance is deplorable and inexcusable; if it is consciously conniving with union smashers— to defeat union labor—it could hardly be engaged in anything more contemptible; in cither case thero is something lamentably wrong.—Winnipeg Voice.

C, Sept. 5th, 1901. To the Citizens and Business Men of Rossland and Vicinity and to the General Public .- The Le Roi mine manager has been circulating a report that the strike here is practically at an end and the mines are about to resume. This report has been taken up by their organ, the Morning Miner, and sent out over the country as a true report of the situation in Rossland. We have made a careful analysis of the situation here and believe that no impartial reader can see much reason for the joyful enthusiasm which Mr. Bernard Macdonald and his paper profess to feel. For three and one-half months the strike has been in force at Northport. The greatest claim Macdonald or Kadish have ever made during that time is that they have been able to operate two of the five furnaces at the smelter. It is only a question of simple arithmetic to see that it it takes three and one-half months to start two furnaces, it will take eight and three-fourths months before they can have the smelter in operation. Now, if it takes eight and three fourths months to raise the 500 men necessary to start the smelter it will take twice that many, or seventeen and one-half months, to secure 1000 men for the mines in Rossland. Or, at the end of twenty-six and one-half months, if Macdonald has the same success he claims to have had thus far at the smelter, he will be in a position to work the mines. No one can deny or dispute that Bernard Macdonald has left no stone unturned to secure men for the smelter at Northport. He has cast his drag net over the states of Minnesota, Colorado, California, Oregon, Missouri, Montana, or, practically, over the entire country west of the Mississippi river, and has been able to start but two of the five furnaces at the Northport smelter. This is the success he boasts. He claims the strike is at an end. It has only begun. So far we have taken as true his statements that he has two furnaces in operation at Northport. We wished to prove how futile are his statements by his own evidence. The real truth is he has never had two furnaces in successful operation at one time for 24 hours. They have produced no matte for shipment up till August 25. He claims to have shipped one carload on August 21. That it was the highest in value of any shipment made. The records of the railroad at Northport fail to show any trace of matte shipments on or about August 21, If any shipment was made it was via the Columbia river route and rests at the bottom ot the river. He also claims to be able to start the mines in Rossland. Apparently he does not realize there is an alien act in Canada, for of the 30 employes now at the mines all but two have been brought here in direct violation of this law and will be deported inside of two weeks. He has in eight weeks been able to secure but two scabs in Canada. Now, if the Canadian people should, to his surprise, enforce their laws, even if it does hurt the feelings of Bernard Macdonald, how long will it take to start the mines at the ratio of two every eight weeks? And as yet there is not a miner in the lot. We are not deceiving the miners of Rossland by false promises. We hope for an honorable settlement of the difficulties here. The sooner the better it will suit the union miners of Rossland. But if it is necessary to continue this fight to its final end the union miners and smeltermen will stand shoulder to shoulder for carrying on the fight. This war was forced on these unions. We entered the struggle full of a belief in the justice of our cause and confident of our ability to carry it successfully to an end. This belief has never been shaken for an instant, and certainly is not when we consider the almost unbroken line of successes which have thus far attended our efforts.

"VOICE" TAKES THE MATTER UP "No labor Troubles in Rossland"— Immigration Department at Winnipeg Brought in. ■ The Winnipeg "Voice" of the 27th has the following to say of our seal) herding acquaintance, ex- Chief Ingrain, and his work at Winnipeg: "The agent employed by Bernard Macdonald is the ex-chief of police in the city of Rossland, and formerly in police service in this city. This person is descrihed in the Free Press of Wednesday as Chief Ingram of Rossland; ho (Ingram) was discharged from Rossland ahout last March without notice, tho matter being considered so serious. Old timers in Winnipeg will remember the circumstances of his dismissal from this city. He is also reported as having been engaged in "herding Bcabs" for tho C. P. R. during the trackmen's strike. Such is the kind of character employed by Bernard Macdonald, who is regarded as the greatest enemy of unionism in the west. We aro further informed by the preBS that Ingram is to assist Major Sherwood in convoying tho royal train west. The C, P. R. iB not very choice in the selection of ils tools when dealing with citizens and subjects, but it might have done a little better than this on a regal occasion. Inquiry at the Dominion immigration department results in nothing but a confession of their ignorance of the labor situation in Rossland, and they claim not to have hired any men for Rossland. Against this we have the ovidence of men making personal application and being offered work in eilher Rossland or Lethbridge, If administrative departments of the government are to be used iu combination with their organs and capitalistic schemers to defeat men striving for a fair living wage—it is surely time to call a halt and ask what the legitimate functions of an executive aro. By custom and to a certain extent by law, employment agents have the right to employ men to go anywhere and do anything on any termB,but we expect something different from governments."
