RECOGNITION OF THE UNION
THI8 AND NO DISCRIMINATION
ARE THE MATTERS IN DIS-
PU1£— LEMIEUX ACT ARBITRATION DID NOT RESULT IN A
SETTLEMENT
(Special to The Daily News.)
GRAND FORKS, June 28—The arbitration board which eat at Greenwood lately in regard to the disagreement between the B. C. Copper company and the Greenwood Miners' union
not having come to a satisfactory settlement, rue union has declared a strike
and tonight posted the following notice
ln this city. Tills is signed by the
strike committee and -hears the seal of
the union: "otrike workmen stay away
from Greenwood. Greenwood Miners'
union No. 22, Western Federation ot
Miners, have declared a strike against
the mines and smelter of the British
Columbia Copper company for the recognition of Greenwood Miners' union
and for discrimination against its members.
"On June 1, U07 Greenwood Miners'
union and the manager of the B.C. Cop-
pet1 -company adopted a wage scale to
be paid the employees of, the B. C.
Copper company at their mines and
smelter. In May, 1908 the manager of
the B. C. Copper company reduced the
wages of his employees and from tha'
, time to the present time has refused to
submit a copy of the scale of wages he
is paying his employees to Greenwood
' Miners' union and he has tried to disrupt Greenwood Miners' union' by blacklisting our active members. The properties ot the B. C. Copper company
are closed down at present and we intend to keep them closed down luttiU
the management recognizes Greenwood
Miners' union. At least 90 per cent
of the employees of the B. C, Copper
before it closed down were members of
Greenwood Miners' union. The strike
committee will notify the public through
the press when the strike is called off.
the B. c. Copper company operates
the smeuer at Greenwood and tlie
Mother ^ode and Oro Denoro mines in
that neighborhood. Both the mines and'
smelter which have up to the present
time been run on the open shop principle, are at preheat closed down as a
result of a shuitage of coke, due to tihe
' strike of the coal miners ln eastern
British Columbia and western Alberta.
This Btrike is now well on its way to
a settlement and within a short time
alter the resumption of] operations in
the coal mines the B.C. Copper company would have been In a position to
start up its smelter again and with it
its mines. Ws, however, the calling
of the strike Is likely to-prevent, unless a settlement is arrived at shortly.
The coal strike commenced on April
1, but the copper company had enough
fuel on nand to last It for about ona
.month, so that the smelter was no\t
closed until about May 1. About the
time of the closedown the Greenwood
Miners' union applied for a board o't
arbitration, its demands ibeing as follows:
1. Tnat the management of the B.C.
Copper company recognize a committee
from Greenwood Miners' union No. 22
W.-...*., to adjust all grievances between the B. C. Copper company and
its employees.
2. That the B. G. Copper company
cease discriminating against members
of Greenwood Miners' union No. 22,
W.F.M.
3. That tne B.C. Copper company
reinstate J. B. King and T. Y. McKay
in their employment and pay the said
J. B. King and T. Y. McKay their wages
in full from the time of their dismissal until such time as they are reinstated.
4. That the B.C. Copper company
shall not discriminate against men on
account of their political opinions.
That the B.C. Copper company shall
not alter the existing conditions of employment of t.helr employees without
notifying the president or secretary of
Greenwood Miners No. 22, W.F.M. and
all notifications shall ibe ln writing.
6. That the management of the B.C.
Copper company, or any ol) its officials
shall not use any Influence or ln any
way Interfere with their employees lh
their choice of doctor or doctors.
. .. 'that the management of the B.C.
Copper company cease soliciting the
board of trade and certain individuals,
for the purpose of discrediting Greenwood Miners' union, No. 22 W.F.M.
The dominion department of, labor
granted a board of conciliation under
the Lemieux act, judge P. B. Wilson of
Cranbrook being the . cfoalrntfin, and
Mward Cronyn ot Toronto and John
Mclnnls, M.P.P., of Grand Forks being
the representatives of the company and
men respectively. The finding ot the
chairman and the company's representative' -was against the men, although the
lormer favored recognition of the union,
Vlhrough both parties to the dispute getting together, while that of. Mr. Mclnnls
was in their favor. The chairman offered a basis upon which he thought the
company and men could come together.
It was as follows:
"1. That the union eliminate any
practice of discrimination as against
non-union men.
"2. That upon the cessation of suc'h
procedure the company recognize and
deal -with the union ln regard to questions affecting union men.
"3. That no discrimination be shown
against any person by reason of his
taking and active part lh the union,
"The whole industrial situation in
this camp Ib unfortunate. A feeling of
distrust pervades the whole atmosphere
and so long as that feeling continues
so long will trouble continue. Unless
some feeling can arise which will tend
to a belief by each party in human nature, even if the party Is of the opposite side, no cessation of the present
trouble can be contemplated. If the
employer will fairly recognize fair
union1 labor and the union will fairly
deal wth the employer, then troouble
will cease; otherwise it will continue
forever,"
The union rejected the majority report and accepted the minority one of
Mr Mclnnls and following this decision
n strike has been declared. The Daily
News yesterday wired George Heather-
ton, secretary of the Greenwood union,
asking whether a strike had been declared and his reply read as follows:
"Greenwood, June 28, 1909.
"Nelson Dally News, Nelson, B.C.
"Yes; for recognition of the unloji
and refusing to give us a scale of
wages paid employees.
"GEO. HEATHERTON."
What the latter part of, this message
means Is shown ln tho official statement from the union published above.
The following letters which have pass
ed between the un'on and the company, within the last week give thii
story of the negotiations leading up to
the strine.
Greenwood, B.C., June 21,
Mr. J. E. McAllister, Manager B, 0.
Copper Co., Anaconda, B.C.
Dear Sir*—At a regular meeting ol*
Greenwood Miners' union, June 19.1909,
the members adopted the report of John
mclnnls as a member of the conciliation and investigation board lately held
In Greenwood
I was Instructed to notify you to that
effect and tailing to get a satisfactory
answer from you before 7 p.m., June'
23, to declare a strike against the B.C.
Copper company, on behalf of Greenwood Miners' union.
Hoping to receive an early reply. Re-
spectfullv yours.
(Signed) GEORGE HEATHERTON
Greenwood, B.C.. June 23
To the Members Greenwood  Miners'
Union, No. 22, Western Federation
of Miners, Greenwood, B.C.
Dear Sirs—Your letter of the 21st
received and its contents noted with regret, for while you state that you have
adopted the report of your representative on the conciliation board, the spirit
ot fairness mentioned at the close of the
report appears to be quite absent from
your communication.
~b you have probably heard, It was
our Intention to be governed by thp
report of the chairman of the conciliation board which sat in Greenwood
early In May, In so far as the propfcr
carrying on of our .business would allow, this affording, ln our opinion, a
ready solution of any difficulties existing between your organization and this
company.
So long as your organization Is conducted upon the lines Indicated In -tfie
chairman's report, there can be no objection to our receiving a committee of
your organization, the members of
which are conversant with conditions,
tot Intercede for one of your members
who may ahege tha,t he has been unjustly discharged, provided the individual has oeen unable to adjust the matter with the superintendent personally
before referring it to your organization.
The chairman's report states that you
did not substantiate your charges oi
discrimination, nor Is it our intention
that there should be any discrimination
against your members without, however, in any sense abrogating the right
of this company to hire and discharge
such men as It considers best In Its own
interests and you will understand that
any employee faithfully discharging his
duties in the Interests of tue company
will be given every consideration,
whether belonging to your organization
or not,
It had been our intention, prior to the
receipt of your letter, to resume work
both at the smelter and ihe Mothe/
Lode mine as soon as a sufficient sup-
play of fuel had been accumulated at
the former point, and in this resumption
the members . of your organization
would have heen fairly dealt with, the
same as any one else. It Is with regret,
tnerefore, that we note the stand you
take In your letter indicating as it does
a position biased in one direction; as
we had hoped your organization would
adopt an attitude of fair dealing, which
must be essential to lis stability, as
well as Its harmonious relations with
this company.
We trust uiat you will consider thl«
a satisfactory reply to your communication and refrain from any action, the
effect of which, must Impose unnecessary hardship on others who are not
connected with you.  Yours, very truly,
J. E. MCALLISTER, Gen. Manager.
Greenwood, B.C., June 24.
Kir. J. E. McAllister, Manager B. C.
copper Co., Anaconda, B.C.
jJear Sir—I am in receipt of your
communication of June 23, to the members of Greenwood Miners' union.
I note what you say about a spirit
of fairness and that the chairman. of
the board's report states that we did
not substantiate our charges of discrimination, but the members are not overlooking the fact that judge Wilson left
Greenwood on the same train as your
representative.
And when we consider that Mr. Cronyn was your guest while In Greenwood
and the opinions expressed In his report must naturally be your opinions,
we fail to see any spirit of fairness as
far as thiB organization Is concerned.
We are willing to acknowledge that
you are the representative of the B.C.
Copper company, but we also expect*
that you shall recognze Greenwlod Miners' union as represent'ng your employees and until such time as yon recognize this organization as representing your employees X tall to see any
possiijaity of our arriving at a settlement j
I wish to repeat to you what I have
told you before, that Greenwood Miners'
union is not looking for trouble and I
will delay taking any action until 7
p.m., June 25, and I will expect by that
time that you will let me know if you
are willing to submit a "wage scale for
your employees*' to Greenwood Miners'
union; also If you are willing to meet
a committee from Greenwood Miners'
union to adjust our grievances.
* I believe that I can say for die members of Greenwood Miners' union that
they did not hear the report that It
was your intention to be governer by
the report of the chairman of the conciliation and investigation -board. Yours
very truly,
(Signed) GEORGE HEATHERTON
Sec. Greenwood Miners' Union
The    Secretary,    Greenwood    Miners
Union, Western Federation of Miners, Greenwood, B.C^
Dear sir—Your communication of the
24th Inst, has been received. Apparently you have misunderstood our letter
'of the 23rd, although It appears to us
quite clear and I trust tliat the members of your organization understand
Its purport.
At your request the department of
labor at Ottawa granted a conciliation
and investigation board and you have
its findings. We have expressed to
your members our willingness to act
along the lines of the report of tlie Independent member of that hoard, a
county court judge, who was appointed
by the honorable minister of labor and
there is no mention in our letter of
'this company's representative, fn.
closing tnis correspondence, we oh|i
only say that we have nothing further
to add to our letter of the 23rd inst.
Yui's very truly,
J. E. MCALLISTER, Gen. Manager.

PROGRAM OUT
Sports Arranged for Ihe
Celebration
BIG SUCCESS IS ASSURED
GOOD LIST OF EVENTS EMBRACING ALL KINDS OF SPORTS IS
ARRANGED FOR THURSDAY
ANu FRIDAY—BOAT RACES
WILL   BE   FEATURE
That the Dominion duy celebration on
Thursday and Friday next will be more
successful loan any similar event previously held in Nelson is assured iby
tne excellence of tlie arraingements
already made by the committees In
cliaigo- of tiie various attractions. At
a meeting held lost night the finance
committee, of which Harry Wright is
chairman, reported limit The success
met wuii had been most encouraging
and that within the next few days tho
requisite amount of money for the different sports would be collected.
One of the greatest atl factions in the
splendid program arranged will be the
boat race between Lou Scholes, (he
unbeaten amateur champion of Canada,
and T. D. DesBrlsay, champion of tho
Paclllc coast, a race which will practically be for ttie championship of Can-
una, Mr. DesBrlsay has never been in
better form nnd tcels confident or being able to maintain his magnificent
record with Uie sculls. That the fight
will be a hard one is certain as even
ah" oarsman of Mr. DesBrisay'g calibre
can have no sou snap against a man
who has curried off tlie fumous diamond
sculls at Henley, one of the most treasured ot rowing honors. In addition to
the big boat race there will be many
others of various kinds, for men, women, mixed and also a number ol
freak races and other aquatic sports.
'Uie launch races will also be no mean
attraction to both local people and visitors. Bight cups are to be competed
for and it is expected that the entries
will be the largest yet received for any
launch event on Kootenay lake. The
secretary is receiving a number of entries from Kaslo and other points on
the main lake
There will be two ift-rirse races for
prizes aggregating $250, In connection
with ..these It is whispered that in addition to a horse which Is reputed to
be one of the best In the country a
"dark" one will compete which will surprise tlie knowing ones. Two baseball
matches have been arranged for, one
with Rossland and the other with Ymir
It will be remembered that tha former
team gained a hard won victory over
the Nelson ball chasers a few days ago
and It ts certain that the game between
the Golden and Electric cities will be
both keen and close. Boh are confident
of victory. Another hind attraction
winch whl he of unusual Interest will
be the football match between Nelson
and Riondel. Tlie latter, the well known
"Blue Bell boys" are stated to ibe one
of the hottest asssociation football aggregations in the country and Nelson
will have to look to Us laurels lest the
purse, which Is being given as a prize,
should be curried back triumphantly
to Riondel.
Not by any means tlie least Important
event will be ihe children's sports on
the morning of the first day. They will
be one of the most picturesque and in*
teresting attractions during the cele*
bration. The two days of almost continuous sport will be brought to a fitting close by the grand illuminated
water carnival, coupled with a great
pyrotechnic display on Friday night.
Already certain enthuslastc launch
owners have commenced to decorata
their boats, one man whose ihoat made
a bg showing last year having taken
the precaution to lock his launch house
and close all the cracks so that there
mny be no ocbancc of a rival copying

%      A fire-box which consists of several
pieces merely bolted together is not a
safe fire-box.    Bolts are liable to work
loose, allowing the pieces to spring apart.
Gas, smoke and dust escape—to say nothing of the heat
wasted—and find their way all through the house, which is bad for
your house furnishings and worse for your health.
And that's the kind of fire-boxes common furnaces have.
But the "Magnet" fire-box—it's different.    Consists of only
two pieces of heavy cast iron, securely fastened together byuur
famous "cup joint."
Picture shows a section of the fire-box of
McClaiyfc
Furnace
and illustrates this feature better than words can describe it.
Upper and lower sections are accurately fitted tog-ether and
lined With a layer of asbestos cement, which unites them so
firmly together that they become practically one piece. Can
never come apart. Furthermore, the two sections are tightly
bolted together every live and a half inches — which adds
additional strength to ihe "cup joint."
Fire-box is absolutely proof against the escape of foul gases,
smoke or dust. And heat is kept tn the inside, where every unit
can be utilized for your con.fort.
It's a safe, trustworthy furnace, built to last, is ihe "M-Vgnet."

Wonderful   Growth   in   Sales   During
The year Just passed will long be remembered for Hie financial and commercial depression. Business houses
all over Canada were affected. Most of
thorn show a loss over 1907. Some did
about as much business last year as in
the preceeding one. A few—a very few
—show substantial gains. In spite of
"hard times" and "financial depression"
the sales of "Frult-a-tives" doubled in
1908 over 1907.
The National Drug & Chemical Co. of
Canada Limited bought "Prtlk-fl-tlves"
in 100 gross lots (14,000 boxes). Lyman Sons & Company of Montreal,
and Lyman Brothers In Toronto,
also ordered "Fruit-n-tlvos" by
the hundred grow lots. These big
wholesalers bought such big orders
simply because the retail dealers ordered so many boxes of "Frult-a-tlves"—
and the dealers had to keep "Frult-a-
tlves" always In stock to supply the
constantly Browing demand of people in
every section of Canada.
To-day, "Frult-a-tlves" are the most
popular family medicine in the Dominion. In the big cities, In the smaller
towns, on farms and ranches, "Fruit-a-
tlves" ore the standby In curing all
forms of Stomach, Liver, Bowel, Skin
and Kidney Trouble. Rheumatism,
Headaches end Neuralgia.

diseases? Don't hesitate a moment.

Have You Found Out Wherein Lies the
Difference Between the Other Flours
and Robin Hood Flour?
We can tell you some of the points of superiority.
For instance, that better wheat goes into the making of
Robin Hoed. That it is made with greater care, with
more flour-experience back of it.
But you yourself can learn more about its superiority
than we can tell you, and learn it in the best way.
That is by buying a bag of Robin Hood and making
a thorough test of it. That will convince you far more
thoroughly than what we say to you. You will then know
for yourself what beautifully light, nutritious bread it
makes, and how much one bag makes compared with
other flours.
That will prove to you that it is better to use "Robin
Hood" than any other flour, and you can get this proof at
no danger or loss, for if after two fair trials you find that it
is unsatisfactory, you can send it back, and your grocer
will return your money. But we know from the experience of thousands of others that you will be satisfied
with it.
N.B.—Always add more water with Robin Hood
flour.   Note the result.

YOUNG MR. FOURNIER'S CASE
The papers of eastern Canada aro
taking up finite generally the case of
Mr. Jules Fournler, editor of Le Na-
ttonallste of Montreal, who was sent
to jail for three months for contempt of
court, because he had the temerity to
express in his paper what most other
people who knew anything about the
matter thought concerning a bank forgery case recently tried at Levis, Que.
Mr, Fournier's charge was practically
tnat this case was hushed up by those
charged with the administration of
justice because of the prominence of
some of the people alleged to be implicated.
Mr. Fournier's charge. It Is true, was
a grave one and deserved the ful-est
investigation. Instead of this Mr. Fournler waa hailed before sir Francois
Langellei-, a justice of tne superior
court, on a charge of contempt of court
and, being found guilty, was sentencad
to three months in jail without the option of a fine He was lodged with tho
ordinary offenders undergoing sentence,
being forced to wear the regulation Jail
uniform und generally being treated as
would be a criminal of the lowest type.
It may Ibe noted that Mr. (Fournler had
no option of trial by Jury. He was accused of libelling the bench and was
brought betore a member of the bench
and tried and condemned.
There is no question but that Mr.
Fournler may have been hasty in what
he said, for he is an impulsive young
man, without any great experience in
journalism or familiarity with the pitfalls which beset the path of an editor, especially in a province where the
members of ihe bench appear to be particularly touchy on the question of their
dignity. But, granting tnis, the course
pursued by the bench in dealing with
him smacks of tyranny. This fact is
recognized by papers of all shades of
politics and thought and there is a
general condemnation of the manner in
wnich this young man lias been treat;
ed
As a result of the agitation that the
papers have aroused there Ib some pro-
spect of securing Mr. Fournler his freedom. In the meantime.Blr LomerGouln,
premier and attorney general of Quebec, has announced that he is Investigating tiie charges mode by Le Nation*
aliste. Should his investigation show
that Mr. Fournier's charges were justified a nice situation will he created
Mr. Fournler will have been punished
for having done a public service. In
any case, however, It will be generally
agreed, lie has been the victim of a
Juuge's ideu of the sanctity of the
bench as opposed to ordinary common
sense.
Ordinarily, it will .be generally agreed,
the bench should be above criticism.
Tills, however, should not be taken to
mean that any and every action of a
member of the bench is above criticism,
Julges are only human and it is possible for them to err. To say tliat a
judge might do anything he wished
while sitting on the bench and tliat
any and all criticism of his actions
would be contempt .ot court would ha
putting the liberty of the subject In a
new light. This, however, is pretty
nearly, if not exactly, tbe situation in
regard lo the case of young Mr. Fournler.
EDITORIAL NOTE
All tliat is now required to make the
Dominion day celebration a success is
the weather. Surely the weather man
will be kind.
Dispatches my that Mr. Hugh X>.
Lumsden lias resigned his position as
chief engineer of the National Transcontinental railway. The explanation of
his action will bo awaited with interest.
From the country's standpoint it is
too bad that a strike of the employees
of the IJ C Copper company should crop
up just as the coal strike was being
settled. It is only tne country's great
natural resources that enables it to keep
up in the face of continuous setbacks of
this kind.
The now Intercolonial commission is
showing that It recognizes one of the
reasons, at least, why the railway has
not been a paying proposition in the
past and has undertaken a wholesale
reduction In the staff. If the commission goes ahead on these lines and conducts the road on business lines, eliminating the political pull and the graft
which have flourished to the present the Intercolonial will soon be
paying a fair return on its cost, instead
of failing to meet operating expenses.
Tiie London Times Is now advocating
the appointment of a Canadian board
tor the Grand Trunk railway. This, it
would appear to most people, Is the
only sensible course for the company
to- pursue, but all suggestions along
these lines have been frowned down
by the London board of directors and
the English shareuolders. ln the meantime the road continues to show unsatisfactory financial results. A board
on the ground which would be able to
juuge conditions and act accordingly
might not make the road the paying investment the shareholders might desire, but it is pretty safe to say that it
would bring better results, at least. It
Is impossible to properly administer
the affairs of a big Canadian enterprise
like the Grand Trunk from London no
matter how able may be the board of
directors trying to do so.

"One Touch of Nature Makes the

When a rooster finds a big fat worm he
calls all the hens In the farm .yard to
come nnd share It. A similar trait of human nature is to be observed when a man
discovers something exceptionally good-
lie wants nil his friends and neighbors to
shnre the benefits of his discovery. This Is
tne touch of nature that makes the whole
world kin. This explains why people who
have been cured by Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy write to the manufacturers for
publication, that others similarly nil Ing
mny also use it and obtain relief. Behind
every one of these letters Is n warm hearted wish of the writer to be of use to someone else. This remedy Ib for sale by all

BETTER LUMBER PRICES
SECRETARY   OF CANADIAN   ASSOCIATION ON SITUATION
SUCCESS  OF  PRAIRIE   CROP  NOW
PRACTICALLY A83URED
"Indications point to a rapid return of
normal lumber prices. The success Of
the crops tn the prairies Is now practically assured and a good year In the wheat
belt cannot but rcBult lh a very large increase In building operations." This
statement was made yesterdav to a re.
presentative of The Dally News by Frank
Hawkins, secretary of the Canadian Lumbermen's association at Ottawa, when
asked as to the prospect for an increase
in the present prico of lumber.
Mr. Hawkins Ib In British Columbia for
the purpose of gaining additijial members for the association, of which he Is
the representative, and which was formed less than 12 months ago. He has already visited Vancouver and other coast
cities and been successful in obtaining
as members practically all the coaat lumbermen. With regard to the objects of
the Canadian Lumbermen's association
Mr! Hawkins explained that Its function
was not to In any way Interfere with the
existing organizations, such as tbe
Mountain Lumber Manufacturers' association, but to assist them in obtaining such
modifications of proposed or existing statues an thought advisable, in maklti-*; applications before the railway commission
and in mnny other ways too numerous
to be mentioned. It had been thouglit
that although the smaller organizations
for the protection and assistance of the
lumber men wer? doing excellent work
'they conl ho considerably strengthened
hy some SUOh association «s that represented by Mr. Hawkins, which could act
with the moral effect of the whole lumber Interests of Canada behind It.
One of the questions already taken up
hy the new association was that of the
freight rates ln Quebec and Ontario. Thin
case has he<~-n described as being one of
the most Important ever brought before
the railway commission and if successful
ds likely to have the most far reaching
effects, and Mr. Hawkins would stated
yesterday that' he had every reason to
bellve that the association would win out.
It was tor such work as this that it was
formed, Every year the new association
will hold a huge banquet at Ottawa to
