For the 'sitnplo reason that all, or nearly all, stories of the west.aro talcs ■ of the struggle of life, and the elemental' passions, where every man carries • the whole machinery of liis law in his own •' two hands,* and where justice is what a nuin.can wriiijr from his associates by •craft or force, do those, who only know the west through the imagination of -the novelist, conceive a miners' pay night ' in Canada to be a wild'saturnalia of abuse? Nothing is further '.from 'the — truth. This* year wq'liave seen pay- nights in Phcenix, Greenwood, and . Th'eriiie. • and in these campa we have . seen nothing but what happens* every night for the whole month in decorous o -eastern cities..., Eight hours underground, eight hours in bed,,and ei»ht hours leaning on u fence, and looking wise, does not lead to" anything start- .linglyoriginal. * f ALLS FROM TRAIN Chinese Woman tad on track i . *■ .f Near fort Steele Brewery-; Cause Unknown.

"' 'At Province Town,'Mass., Presi- . dent Roosevelt has- inaugurated a campaign against ruthless and corrupt corporations, and at the same meeting he .threw 'the., influence , ot bis presidential, position into the balance in favor of more far-reaching and thorough-going laws for the protection of the workers, than any yet existing on the statute-books of tbe Spates. President Roosevelt dis- "missed, the current iniquity that' a man or a. woman who ig crippled in an' industry, even as the ~?llt of tailing what are necessary risks of their occupation, should be required to bear the whole burden' of the ioss. ~ This burden should be distributed and not placed solely upon Jhe weakest individual, the one least ■able to carry it., By making the employer liable the loss will ultimate- * ly be distributed' among the beae-_ ficiary of.the business. .But these things, &s the President , pointB oUt> will, not be, accomplished without great and concentrated - effort. It will be necessary to work —"heart-acd—tsoiil—for—this_reaL_and, 1 - .1' --O .permanent betterment if we wish to lift civilization up ' to a level ol 4 i ' safety and usefulness. *„ The President admits that so* far ' State efforts to control corporations and trusts have fa'l;d, Juries are Blow to commit individuals, whilst the same juries are eager to eornmit corporate todiss. A national inccrporation law , for corpordti'.ns envagei in 5t\te tu:i- ness seems tbe enly cure. Because nlmo'st every Lig business concern is en:a;,ed in int-rsta'c commerce and such a coii'Jirn must not l:e allowed by a dexterous Kbifiin; cf position, • which h:s.

The demiiids cf the Great Ncu-tli- ern having been satisSed as per contract with the Crow's ,Ncst Company, the latUr company has just got ia a position where it can ae,jin to ship commercial coal. The Great Northern hus been taking particular cafe that it encounters no shortage itself, and it is asserted has now 60,000' ,tor.s of coal in storage at Hillycrd and more at other points alon"j the line. „' '. The officials of the company 'now feel that they may be able, on account of their large supply on hand, to weather anything that comes along in the way of a fuel shortage this winter. The'company has secured most of its' coal from the Crow's Nest Company at Fernie, tbe latter company agreeing to give the railway its supply before beginning to ship to private parties or other corporations. '. * ' " Several of the orders for more or less large quanthi.s of Crow's Nest coal have been placed with the agent of the coal company in Spokane, R. Dorn.

There are twenty blocks of lots; the ten of these blocks nearest to the mines will be reserved exclusively for the miners, and miners applying now will receive the preference in order of application. Lots will be sold to miners cheap and tho terms of payment will be 10 per cent, cash and $10.00 monthly with interest until paid for, so as to facilitate their securing homes for themselves, and they will be required to undertake to build within a reasonable time. Tho remaining ton blocks will become tho business portion of the town and will bo sold by Public Auction at a date to bo hereafter announced. It is believed .that the Great Northern Railway, now oxtending its lino to Michel, will build its station opposite this portion of the townsite.
