Bodwell'. newspaper organs, circulated tbe rumor that Premier Dunsmuir had sent in hie resignation and recommended the Lieutenant-Governor to call on Mr. Bodwell to form a government. The World yarn is. so absurd that the Times ot this city, whicb also supports Bodwell, scouts it, and says that Mr. Dunsmuir has no intention of resigning. It says, however, that an attempt is being made to patch up a truce between Dunsmuir and the recalcitrant Conservatives like Garden and McBride. VETERAN EDITOR DEAD. The Toronto Globe gives a review of the past year in the financial world and prints a long list of the highest and lowest quotations of many securities during 1901 and gome of the previous years. Under the heading of "the highest and lowest prices of many shares," some interesting compar- idns are made with previous years. In 1898 the highest quotations for Cariboo, Camp McKinney, was 150 and the lowest 104. For War Eagle, in the same year, 306 and 100 were the figures. The following figures for 1899, 1900 and last year for the properties mentiined are also given.

Grand Forks, Jan. 7,—A bloodless clash, which at one time threatened to assume dangerous proportions, occurred near Curlew, Wash., yesterday afternoon over a disputed crossing between the rival forces of the Great Northern and the Grand Forks & Republic railways, repectively. Tbe sheriff of Ferry county and several armed deputies sre now on the scene with the object of preventing a breach of the peace. It is said that bad feeling exists between tbe member of the rival railway gangs and tbat it will require considerable effort to prevent them from resorting to force. Several people who arrived tonight from Curlew report that the day passed off uneventfully. A meeting of the Municipal Labor party and all others who are interested in the welfare of the city will be held in Miners' Union hall, on Tuesday evening, January 7th, at 7.30 o'clock sharp, to ratify the action of the executive committee and to transact such other business as may come before the meeting.

The somewhat celebrated application of the thirty four men of Slooan City to bo placed on the municipal voters' list Slocan, as the joint owners of two $50 lots, came up before Judge Forin yesterday. Tho facts as disclosed upon the application were that the names of the applicants had been placed upon the list by the city clerk, but upon the revision of the same by Mayor York they were struck off by reason of the fact that the names of the thirty four men did not appear on the last revised assessment roll as called for by the municipal act, whioh is the basis upon winch thc voters' list should be built. Judge Forin dismissed the app- plication holding that the provincial aasessment roll must govern and that as the applicants were not assured they could not be entered on the voters' list. Four sawmills along the line of the Crow's Nest l'ass railway have decided to form a combine. The four are the Cranbrook Lumber Co., Park, Mitchell & C, McNab Lumber Co., and the King Co. The object is to make an effort to advance the price of lumber nnd to cheapen if possible the cost of production. It is likely that a number of the other mills along tbe line will enter the combine within a short time. The managers of the four companies mentioned held a meeting in Cranbrook a short time ago and decided to organize and apply for a charter. It will have a capitalization of $300,000, divided into ,",000 shares of $100 each. A deal has been made with the C. P. R. whereby the new combine takes a lease on all the company's land within the district for a period of ten years. They are to pay $1 per thousand for all timber used and get twenty-five cents a tie for all ties furnished the railway company during that time. s THE EVENING WORLD, ROSSLAND, B.

Some time ago the Miner insisted that if Alderman Clute was to be an acceptable candidate in the mayoralty race for our "very best element" he must come out clearly and curse all organized labor. Mr. Clute not being "entirely crazy" refused to go on record as requested. Whereupon the Miner now says he is a satisfactory candidate who will represent not a faction, but the whole community if elect ed. Mr. Clute lost a good opportun ity to take the sound stand tbe Miner now tries to make for him, when he refused to plainly repu diate the sentiments expressed for him last month. Mr. Clute is a faction nominee and he cannot be anything else. THE SCAB. A gentleman from Missouri, who does not like being called a scab, writes entertainingly on the sub ject in thisjmorning's paper. For the benefit of Missourians general !y, the Would reproduces the definition of a scab as given in an English conspiracy trial. The prosecuting counsel in the casein question said: "A scab is to his trade what a traitor is to his country, and though both may bs useful in troublesome times, they aro detested by all when peace returns; so when help is needed a scab is the last to contribute assistance, and the first to grasp a benefit he never labored to procure. He cares only for himself; he sees not beyond the extent of a day, and for a momentary approbation he would betray friends, family and country. He is a traitor on a small scale, who firBt sells the journeyman, and is himself afterwards sold in his turn by his employer, until at last he is despised by both and deserted by all. He is an enemy to himself, to the present age, and to all prosperity." We think the description given fairly hits our Missourian impor tations, and we are willing to let them have the full benefit of it NOTES AND COMMENTS.

The last issue of the British Columbia Mining Review is a publication of very great merit and reflects much credit upon Mr. Lamb and those associated with him in its production. If it is true that an expedition, composed entirely of Scotchmen, is going in search of the south pole, it is all up with it. It might as well come out of hiding forthwith and give itself up. The Piano Makers' strike in Toronto was satisfactorily concluded last week, but not before Hon. Mr. Mulock, Minister of Labor, took a hand in thc matter. The Evening Telegram Bays: "Two of the chief points agreed upon were a shorter work day and the recognition of the union." Messrs. Bernard Macdonald and William Thompson, who are solely responsible for the utterances of the Rossland Whiner, have cut that interesting publication down to a four paged paper, now that the Le Roi company has no further use for it or them. Presumably, when tho Le Roi No. 2 company dispe.uus with their valuable services, the Whiner will come out as a weekly. Speed the time. Asthma Sure Free!

The London Medical Times finds a remarkable coincidence between the spread of cancer and the largely increased daily consumption of effervescent wines and waters among the wealthy classes. Champagne and all aerated waters owe their effervescence to the carbonic gas which they contain. The writer in the Medical Times contends that by their habit of constantly imbiding solutions of carbonic acid of greater or less strength, people bo prepare their mucous tissues as to make them favorable "culture beds" for the propagation of the cancerous fun- guB, if fungus it is. If this can be proved, champagne must go, and not champagne only, but seltzer and soda and all "soft drinks" as well. J. D. Blevins has ihe best dry wood in town.

Colonel Shiel, who fought in the Boer ranks and was made a prisoner, was asked how he had been treated by the British, and he replied: "Fairly well, with the exception of a young Highlander who was on sentry over me when wounded. The Highlander, each time he passed me, spat upon me, and I remonstrated, saying that I was his superior officer, and tbat I was wounded in the foot, that the night was bitterly cold, and that I had no blanket. The Highlander at first took no notice of my remarks, but continued to march up and down. At last he stopped in front of me, took off his great coat and wrapped me up, bound up my foot, placed something under my head, and continued hiB "sentry go." About ten minutes later he stopped again in front of me and said: "Look here, colonel, a've gi'en ye ma overcoat an' a've wrapped ye up weel an' dune ma best for ye, but mind thil, we're no freensl" Kootenay Presbytery Meets.

It is a far call from Rossland. to Joplin and just as far from tho RoBsland seals of living to the Joplin scale- George Elkins was hurt at the Old IronsideB mine in Phoenix camp on New year's day. His injuries are not serious. John H. Murphy, of Denver, Colo., attorney for Western Federation of Miners, is in town on affairs of the Federation. A. B. Basco, the clever entertain- ei at the International Music hall, who has been indisposed for some days past will soon be around again. "Union Man," Phoenix: Thanks, tor your letter. The matter you mention is being duly attended to. The Would agrees with your sentiments. The municipal labor party have called a meeting of all friends of the movement for this evening in Miner's Union hall. There iB sure to be a large attendance. If the correspondent in this morning's paper has the ability to write as he does he should long ago have risen from the ranks and he has no call to be a mucker today. If he is not a mucker as he pretends to be, then he is a liar and the truth is not in him. Af tsr mature consideration "Tub- bie" has decided to resign the important position formerly held by iiim on the working staff of the War Eagle, and he leaves this evening for the seat of war in South Africa. When he learns what is now in store for him, De Wet will doubtless come in and surrender. C. P. R. TourUt Sleeping Car Service. Effective Jan. 1st., the C. P.
