This was duo\npartly to world-wide conditions, but\nIt was' ulso due in Canada to tho\ncourse pursued from 189$,to 1911. Immigration had been fostered that\nbrought In too few producers and too\nmany consumers. The need of agriculture bad been ignored and little\ndone, either to popularize rural life or\nto  Increase production.\nMr. Jiimieson suggested remedies\nfor the conditions which now prevail\narising out of the lucfc of sufficient\nproduction.

The spirit of man Is like\nthe captain of a ship who must know\nthe powers and capacities, the\nstrength and weakness of his vessel\nIn order to bring it safe to port This\nmust he knowledge at command, ready\nfor use, showing him how to meet\nemergencies and to make the most of\nopportunities, But it will not occupy\nprominent places of his mind, any\nmore than a consideration of his own\npowers ot: mind or body will occupy\nthe front oi tlie mind of lhe orator,\nor the man of business as he goes\nto his work jn the morning.\nThese things of self are things to\nbo learned and stored away till needed, Any captain who. in a sudden\nstorm, had to go back to study navigation would be a poor dependence\nfor the safety of the ship. A bank\nclerk who had to remind himself that\ntwo and two make four would hardly\nkeep his place. And a man who kept\non wondering whether his heart beat\nor his memory worked, as he be^un his\nwork would be considered a fit candidate for Bedlam.\nTrue self-confidence\u2014which Is a\nvery different thing from Belt-conceit\nand quite consistent with humility-\nuses mind and body with an Intuitive\napplication of their powers In swift\nand certain choice and decision. Here\nIs an illustration ou the plane of the\nbody's needs. Good health is hardly\nconscious of its own happiness. The\nhealthy man knows that there is sick\nness In tbe world, but often finds It\nhard to sympathize with others In\ntheir suffering,\nHis own powers are all at his com\nmand without distracting his attention. On the other hand, the doctor***\nknow that there ure no sufferers more\ntroublesome and. hopeless than those\nwhose whole attention is focusaed on\ntheir own ailments and alarms.

It Is not\nbecause he gave Ontario p-rogresslv\ngovernment, or that he was a stron.\nand courageous man. Other men hav\ndone that and have been such without\nreaching the heart of the public as he\nhas reached It. But Whitney did more.\nWhitney was more. He gave to his\nprovince and to his country the priceless example of honesty and a public\ntrust well kept. Upon the ruins of a\n* corrupt administration he laid foundations of government that will endure\nand he raised a structure not unworthy\n\u25a0of such foundations.\nThose who were wont in former\ndays to speak of Whitney's bluntness,\nhis habit of speaking plainly, and his\npassion for justice as handicaps to Ills\nparty, may learn their lesson now as\nthousands all over Canada daily seek\nthe latest bulletin telling of Whitney's\ncondition. Not long ago Ontario gave\nnew-proof of her continued confidence\nIn his. He was entrenched in power\nIf the cares of office have worn tills\nman out, he has weakened under nothing else but the burden of work he\nundertook In the public Interest.\nWhitney, sound in body and mind,\nwrote into Canadian history a chapter\nthat would adorn the narrative of any\ncountry's progress. If now he be dying, let us give him the full measure\nof credit; let us realize that this weak,\nwornout public servant, who is invoking the sincere sympathy of a nation, is thus teaching us that public\nregard for honesty In the public ser\nvice today is wide enough and strong\nenough In Canada to be a wholesome\ninfluence in the llfe of the country.\nMARRIAGE  IN  WISCONSIN.\nAn alarming condition prevails in\nWisconsin. Hardly anybody Is getting married, says the Ottawa Journal.\nThe state legislature passed a law last\nyear decreeing that marriage licenses\nshould be Issued to only persons who\npresent a certificate from a reputable\ndoctor that they are bodily and mentally sound. This law came Into force-\nJanuary 1. A plethora of marriages\ntook place In December, but since thai\nFor nursing mothers\nNa-Dru-Co Laxatives\noffer tbe important advantage that they do not disturb\nthe rest of the system or\naffect the child.\n25c. a box at your\nDruggist's.\nNatiM-al Dt-M and Cfc.mk*..

Some of the Wisconsin\ndoctors say they need, six months.\nEvery healthy scoundrel in America ought to make for Wisconsin now.\nWisconsin has a heap of pretty girls,\na lot of them sure to have a pile of\nmoney, and the new law will block\nfor a time many of the honest men\nof Wisconsin going after wives. Any\ngood-looking blackguard who is\nhealthy constitutionally has now a\ngreat chunce to make a prosperous\nmarriage. The new law applies only\nto bodily health and mental sanity, it\nhas nothing to do with morals. Any\nburglar, thug, debauchee, swindler or\nmurderer who has a good physique\nand isn't an evident lunatic can get\nmarried at a moment's notice if he\ncan find a girl willing. And what aro\nthe poor girls to do?\nWell, the poor girls have one other\nresource, according to some Wisconsin papers. A Milwaukee lawyer says\nthat under a legal precedent In Wisconsin, neither wedding ceremony nor\nlicense is needed for a marriage\u2014\nthat under the common law, all that\nIs necessary for a legal union is that\ntwo persons agree to accept each other as mutes. However, if a man asks\na girl to fix it that way and she asks\nif he is afraid to try to get a doctor's\ncertificate, what is tbe poor man to\ndo?\n.... . ........................\t\nV $\nv WHAT THE PRESS IS SAYING  \u2022\n*\u25a0 <J)\nFinancial Matter\nI if   all   sad   words,   etc.,   are   those\nfamous    ones,    \"no    funds,\"     written\nacross    a    hunk    check. \u2014  Cleveland\nPlaindealer.\nFoiled the Thieves\nIn the old dnys women weren't robbed on tbe streets.

As a matter of fact, his\nhead is considerably lighter and Ills\nlegs and feet just that much heavier\nwhen he gets up than when he went\nto bed.\nExperiments have shown that if a\nman goes to sleep on a bed suspended\nexactly at the middle point of his\nweight bis head begins to tip slowly\nup and his feet go down. This Is due\nto the fact that when we sleep the\nblood In the brain goes off to the\nother parts of the body. The moment\nthe brain wakes lo life again it draws\nthe blood back.\nAnother of the curious facts brought\n:o light by the .scientists who aire f-.*nd\nof trying to solve the mystery \u00ab\u2022 sleer\nIs thut when one is fast asleep some\npart of his brain or several parts of\nit may at the same time be awake. A\nman may walk, talk, sing or solve\nmathematical problems, and yet at the\nBamo timo be safely in the land of\nnod. \\\nIt seems hard or Impossible to decide what part of the brain really does\nsleep. Our sense of time, for instance,\nis stronger when we sleep than when\nwe are awake, Experiments Oonducteu\nsome years ago on a number of men\nand women between the ages of 20\nand 30 showed that GO per cent of\nthem were able to wake up In the\nmorning at any time they had decided\nupon the night before. As some one\nhas aptly expressed it, the resolve\nseems to wind up something in the\nsubconscious brain, and when the hour\nhas arrived this something gives in\nsome my&terioiiB way the alarm nnd\nthe eyelids open. Another curious1 fact\nabout (deep is that the further the part\nof the body Is away from the brain the\nless soundly It sleeps. A touch on tlie\ntoe will awaken one much more read\nily than a touch on the shoulder.\nSmmjlom\nquickly \u25a0top* coughs, cures colds, and heals\ntht threat aad lun*\u00bb-       a       \u00ab      ft* \u00ab\u00ab\u2022-\nrQ\u00aeQ\u00aety$Q$>9Q9<^SFM4;-' .    .V**!*\nCOMMUNICATION *\n<*l\nROAD OVER GREY'S  PASS.\nTo the Editor of The Dally News.\nSir: Now that the elections are\nover and the members are away, let ub\nset down to business.\nThe vehicular highway from Vancouver will In natural course reach\nNelson. A ferry is provided for, and\n.1 road to Queens Bay is finished. Odd\nlinks along Kootenay lake are built;\nthese soon in the natural course to be\nconnected,\nA bridge acrosB the Lardo-Duncan\nnear Ha mill creek Is mooted ns a local\nnecessity. The canyon of Hamlll\ncreek was cut through some years\nago as an incident In the development\nuf the Argenta mine.\nFrom Banff to Windermere (chiefly\na scenic and tourist road), over the\nmain range of the Rockies, approaches\ncompletion. This road was financed\nby llie governments of Alberta and\nBritish Columbia, plus a large contribution from the Canadian Pacific Railway company. \\\nFrom Windermere a good road has\nbeen built up Toby creek for 20 miles,\nand an indifferent road for some further dlstauce.\nWliat remains to connect Nelson\nwith Wlnderemere is the construction\nof 21 miles uf road from Argenta\nmines mill, Hamlll creek lo the summit of Grey's puss, and a continuation\nol 75 miles down Toby creek. This\n:,li miles of road will open up a country carrying a good deal of timber,\naud with an abundance of mineral\nprospects. It will also afford uccess\nto grass lauds valuable for summer\nfeed of stock, and offering In spots\n-.ho possibility of profitable cultivation, it will call for the expenditure\nof $150,000. The route lies partially\niu the Kaslo riding and partially in\nthe Columbia riding.\nun its merits as ii local project it\nwill not appeal very strongly to those\nwho are responsible for the distribution of the ordinary appropriations for\nthe construction uf roads, available in\nthose two ridings.\nI have spoken of this as a link\nneeded to connect Nelson with Windermere. 1 might gu farther and say\nthat it Is the link needed to connect\nVancouver with Calgary, and even farther and tell you thut it will in the\nnear future connect Seattle with Vancouver, by way of San Francisco, New\nOrleans, New York and Winnipeg, that\nit will be a link iu a belt Hue 0f 10,000\nmiles extending around the confident\nof North America.\nIt is from this point of view that I\nstate the cost of the necessary Jit! miles\nof road at $150,000. A passable road\nfit for local traffic can be constructed\nfor much less. lluL the belt lire of\nwhich I speak is destined to be the\nchief automobile tourist road of the\nworld, and Us most pronounced attraction will be the summit ofUhe Rocky\nmountains and the summit of the Selkirk's at Grey's pass.\nin itself this missing link presents\nno engineering difficulties and Involves no heavy work. The summit at\n7,700 feet altitude Ib reached by travelers over a trail mostly made by the\naxe and at trifling cost, and tlie path\nat the summit is on grass scd.\nThe altitude suggests Interesting\ncomparisons. Th0 Canadian Pacific\nrailway crosses Rogers pass at an elevation of 4,300 feet, and the Rocky\nrange at 6,600 feet. The Crows Nest\nsummit is nearly 5,000 feet. From a\nrailroading aspect the lower passes\nare highly desirable, but from a tourist point of viewthey are not.\nThe marvel of Grey's pass is that\nsuch a height can be reached by a\nroad with a minimum cost of construction.\nThe party which accompanied Mr,\nFoster, then deputy minister of public\nworks, were at the summit this fall\non September 21,\n-The party consisted of Mr, Foster,\nMr. Westcott, district engineer; Mr\nS. H. Moore, road superintendent, nnd\ntils helpers, Charles F. McHardy. D. P.\nKane, J, E. Bingham and myself.\nMr, Foster and Mr. Westcott were\nmet at the summit by Mr. Bell, C.E..\nand a party who had come.up from\nWindermere.\nAll of us greatly enjoyed the trip,\nand those to whom the pass was new\nregarded It as a revelation.\nAfter an easy day's ride from the\nArgenta mine mill we camped in n\ndry meadow of 100 acres near the\nhead, of Hamlll creek. The altitude\nwas 6,200 feet.* In the morning two\nor three hours of easy riding over a\nsurface trail brought us to the summit.\nAn equinoctial storm was brooding,\nbut In the early morning the sun\nshone into the valley of Hamlll creek,\nHalf way up the mountain Bide we\nturned to observe the scenery. Close\ni't bund was the upper basin of the\nif;eek. Ordinarily an amphitheatre\npresenting perpendicular walls of\ngreen ice from 1,000 to 2,000 feet in\nheight, we found that at that late\ndate In the autumn the Ice was greatly, wasted, and that morrulnes of glistening white rock were visible. Looking back down the valley another hash,\nof.three miles circumference presented\nitself.\nThis was more a. bowl .than a basin,\nwitli the creek and meadow ground for\na bottom, and with curved walls rising arouud to 3,000 or. 4iOpO feet. The\nwalls were decorated, in every shade\nof color, the green of grass, the orange and pale pinks of the frost-\ntouched leaves, the soft greys and\nbrowns of the iron-stained rocks and\nthe pure white of the massive drifts\nof the last winter's unmelted snows\nwhich formed the topmost rim.\nThen while we waited and while\n\u25a0jur photographers were seeking strategic points from wh'ch to catch what\nseemed a scene of unearthly beauty,\nthe mists rolled up and blotted out the\nmn, and the bowl becrnie full of royal\nourple of dark blue and. finally of Inky\nblackness. Turning our backs upon\na-Xamlll creek we wer* in a few min-\nites at the final summit. Extendln.-\niwav to the northeas\" lay the valley\nof Toby creek, and the trail for miles\nould be seen on the side hill through\nalternate belts of spruce timber and\ngrass*grown snowsliden.\nAt our feet and BOO or 000 feet below us lay the foot of the Toby glacier, coming with a gentle slope from\na higher summit, somt- miles away.\nA gentle rain changing Wer into snow,\naccompanied with fog. warned us\nagainst venturing upon the glacier.\nThe next morning six inches of new\nsnow made exploration off the trull\nImpracticable and our parry separated,\nMr. Foster and Mr. Westcott going on\nto, Windermere with the Bast Koot*\nenn>: party.\nAlthough the time was that of the\nannual equinox the light snowfall was\nnot accompanied hy wind or frost.\nMr. .1. E. Bingham of Knslo was with\nus, and he went on hiB way to mineral claims far up the slope beyond\nToby, and he returned upon, bare\nground a week or two later.\nEarl Grey and his party on their\nfirst trip went over about the Inst or\nOctober and found no snow.\nWith probably some little expenditure in clearing away the remains of\nsnowsltdes the road will be passable\nIn -lune of each year; without any\nsuch expenditure not later than the\nfirst of July, after which from three\nto four months use of the road would\nbe had.\nAll such roads will necessarily be\nsummer roadB only. In California,\nwhich state has some 9,000 automobiles registered, I wus told, that a\npopular trip would be one occupying\nabout 100 days In summer, that the\nroute should traverse the shade of\ntrees and follow running brooks, that\n!he further north the circle swept and\nthe greater altitude the road attained,\nthe more popular It would become.\nEarl Grey and Mr. Lowther, who accompanied him, spoke of tlie Hamill-\nToby puss as a feature certain to attract world-wide attention If opened\nup to travel.\nSuch a road as I am advocating will\nbring motor cars from Europe, ns Al\npine travel now attracts hundreds or\nthousands of cars from America. Our\nprairie provinces are filling up\nwith automobiles, and such .tin outlet\nto the suit water, through the grandest\nscenery In the world, will attract a\nmultitude of these.\nEmployment as guides, packers, etc.,\nwould be provided for a small army of\nlocal people. The summer homes of\nmillionaires would be established\namongst us and the millionaires\nbrought Into touch with our prolific\nresources would aid In the general\ndevelopment.\nThe Canadian Pacific Railway company has offered to contribute to I he\ncost of the road, and under their auspices u chalet will he provided at the\nsummit of the pass, completing a\nchain of suitable bosteli'ies extending\nfrom Banff to Balfour.\nAs the cost of the missing link obviously can not very well be taken\nfrom the appropriations for local roads\nof the Kaslo and Columbia ridings,\nit should be provided by special grant.\nI am sure that Mr. Foster in 1 his\nnew role as a member of the legislature will give the project his support.\nThose of us who accompanied the ex\nploratory party of last September appreciated highly the interest taken in\nthe scheme by the,Hon. Mr. Taylor,\nby Mr. Foster and by Mr. Westcott.\nG. 0. BUCHANAN.\nNelson, B.

At the morning session of police\ncourt R. J. Reld, the constable charged with aiding Krafehenko to escape,\npleaded guilty and was remanded for\nsentence.\nJ. H. Buxton, who has confessed\nthat he was one of the conspirators,\nwas the principal witness at the police court In the afternoon. R. Bon-\nnar, counsel for Hagel, crosB-question-\ned Buxton mercilessly toward the close\nof the session, but the witness was\nnot flustered and answered the lawyer\nas sarcastically as he waB questioned.\nThe trial of Hagel, who was Krafchenko's counsel, will be resumed tomorrow,\n.The royarcommlsslon session wns\nmerely perfunctory.\nLITTLE INTEREST IN\nCOMMONS DEBATE\n'   (Continued from Page One.)\nof 115,000,000 to Mackenzie & Mann\nand the .millions that were collected in\ntaxes on foodstuffs.\nCongratulates Government.\nDr. Schaffner (Souris) said he would\nextend to the government congratulations on the manner In which It had\nfulfilled its promises to the prairie\nprovinces. During the Laurier regime\na delegation of 1,200 farmers had come\nto Ottawa to present their requests.\nHe intended to show that not one request of those western farmers had\never been granted by the old govern*\nment. Not one of the requests of the\npeople of the west had heen granted,\nThe west had asked for the following:\n(1) Extension of Manitoba's boundary; (2) reduction of western freight\nrates. (3) a government system of\nelevators; (4) aid to agriculture; (5)\naid for better roads; (G) the Hudson\nBay railway. These had been the\nchief requests of the people of the\nwest, and not one of them had ever\nbeen granted by the Liberals.\nSir Wilfrid Laurier had always refused, for some reason or other, to extend Manitoba's boundaries and one\nof the first things which the present\ngovernment had done was to give Manitoba justice. Now, instead of having\n73,000 square miles of territory, Manitoba has 250,000.\nDr. Schaffner asked what the h\\a-\neral government had ever done to\nbring about lower freight rates. They\nhad done a lot of talking, but nothing\nelse. Shortly after the present government came into power a petition\nwns presented asking for an inquiry\nand Judge Maybee was asked to institute an Investigation. It was granted. Dr. Schaffner also said that the\ngovernment had done much ia the\nway of reducing express rates, and\nnow they were prepared to give the\ncountry the boon of parcel post.\nPassing on to the Hudson's Bay\nrailway, Dr. Schaffner said that this\nroad was promised by the Liberals\nfor 16 years, yet by 1911 all they had\ndone was to start a few piers in the\nSaskatchewan river at Le Pas.\nDealing with the highways bill, Dr\nSchaffner said that the L.perals were\ncondemned for their opposition to that\nlegislation more than anything else\nthey have done while in opposition.\nThe member for Souris thought that\nthe Importance of Sir Wilfrid'Laurler's\nfreQ food policy had been greatly exaggerated. It was simply a vote-catching device. He believed that co-operation with the idea of bringing the\nproducer and the consumer closer together would do much to bring about\nan Improvement In conditions. He\nblamed the land speculators for being\nlargely responsible and thought something might be done to lessen this\nevil.\nDr, Schaffner declared that 80 per\n-cent of the people of Souris were in\nfavor of the Borden naval policy, and\nhumiliated because of what had happened.\nIn the Senate\nOTTAWA, Jan. 22.\u2014In resuming the\ndebate on the address in lhe senate,\nSir George Ross snld he could not\nagree with those who held the sky\ncloudless or held -that Canada was on\nthe verge of a serious financial depression. To his mind, Canada was\nmidway between the two positions and\nwith care and prudence could shortly\nrestore prosperous conditions.\nThough a government could not do\neverything to correct unsatisfactory\nconditions, it was the duty of the gov-\nnmont lo Investigate and ascertain\nwhat were the causes for business\nstringency or the high cost of living\nand apply what remedy was In Its\npower.\nSir George strongly urged the government to renew its efforts to entourage a great agricultural production In Canada and lo make rural life\nmore profitable and more attractive\nand enjoyable. As the speech indicated, something was being done, and In\nhis opinion too much could not be\ndone.\nTrade Prosperous\nHon. J. A. Lougheed, the government\nleader ln the senate, followed. He\ngave figures to show that In the past\nUlne months the trade of Canada had\nreached the high water mark and the\ntrade balance against Canada had been\nreduced. Both were sources of satisfaction to 'lhe people of Canada. The\nquestion of the high cost of living was\nbeing much discussed. Free food and\nrelief through the tariff had been suggested. In the United States the reduction of the tariff had been followed\nby ithe upset of business conditions.\nTo remove the duty from food in Can-\nnda would only reduce the customs\ntaxation of the people by $1.25 each.\nThe saving of 91,26 a year would not\ngo far toward the relief of the Individual from the cost of living. The Increase In cost of living wus worldwide and all nations were seeking u\nremedy.\nThe people of Canada,\" he said, \"nre\nin no temper for tariff tinkering just\nnow. The agricultural interests must\nbe protected as well aa the manufacturing Interests and any attempt to\nrevise tho tariff down will bring a\nresult which no government would be\nable to resist.\"\n\u00ab\u2022        WANT  AD   HOROSCOPE        -5\n$>   <S\ni> JANUARY 23 \u2022$\nStudy tne character and life of John\nHancock, who was born on this date\nIn 1737 und died In 1703, if you wish\nto see tlie character which is Imparted\nby the planets Saturn and Uranus nnd\nthe sign Aquarius,\nIf this l\u00bb your birthday be very\ncautious about telling your affairs tu\nothers.\nMore than any other people of the\nZodiac should you keep your business\naffairs t0 yourself until well toward\ncompletion.

But for Lord Strathcona's first bargain the valuable land\nnow owned by the railway companies\nwould be the property of the state and\nthe Canadian people, not the shareholders, would be reaping the benefit.\nThere would be none of the complaints\nwhich have been made, and are being\nmade, that wnlle tlie people, by their\ncash, grants and loans, create the railways, the profit as well as the honor\ngoes to \"titled empire building millionaires.\"\nCriticizing in these terms, says the\nGuardian, has been explicit in Canada\nIn the lifetime of the Borden government. More must be heard of It In\nthe future, and the issue of it will determine the position of Lord Strathcona In the estimation of his fellow\ncitizens of the Dominion.

The tendency of all\ntrade unions throughout life world was\nto combine in their efforts toward\nsocial and Industrial betterment. Conditions were such that they did not\nhad to any distinction between one\ncraft and another. Machinery was removing much Of the human element.\nOccupations were becoming more mechanical, more alike.\nThere was no distinction, no superiority as far as coal and metalliferous\nminers were concerned. Both were engaged in the same struggle for existence and both organizations should\ncombine In united action.\nConditions Change\nA' resolution declaring the general\nsillkc to bo the most effective weapon for social betterment had been\npassed. He referred to the effects of\n\u25a0general'strikes and declared they must\nend in political struggle. To avoid a\ncrisis workers must be educated to\nthe highest standard of economic well-\nbeing. The economic conditions which\nhad led to the trade union'movement\nhad passed. Capital bad now combined In huge combinations and the trade\nunion movement had ceased to be able\nto enforce its demands und there was\na different aspect to be faced 4o that\nof 20 or 30 years ago.\nPolitical Action Solution\nUnion members asked what was the\nvalue to the men of tbe unions. The\ntrade union could not answer this\nquestion; it had reached lis limits of\neffectiveness and must branch oul ou\nother lines to secure economic and Industrial betterment. The answer was\npolitical action, and the best action\nto be taken by the trade union movement was to educate its members in\nthe meaning and value of political action. Parliament was a barren, Useless, force at present, but It must be\ncaptured, as through It could be controlled -the situation for the rising democracy, for the benefit of-.-the social\nproducers of wealth, ll wus for them\nto capture ibis Gibraltar of modern\npower and then enter into their' glory.\nAlthough the working class produced all wealth yet never In the Malory of the world had they enjoyed\nso little of the products of their social\nj labor than at present. The minors of\ntha west produced the greatest motive\npower of ithe world, they produced the\nfoundation of modern existence and\nyet enjoyed so little. They lived with\nIbe sunshine out of their lives. This\ncondition could nut continue., Men's\nvery conditions were causing them to\nawukij*.--.'thoy were willing to burrow\nto1 produce the wealth, but they were\nbeginning to demand that they receive\ntheir Just rewards. ^\nHuman labor [lower as a commodity\nwas subject to the fluctuations iu\nvalue of all commodities and, in fact,\nIt was worthless, was more perishable\nthan fish.\nGreater  End  in  View\nHy harmonious and charitable feeling- toward each other, by education\nIn the fact 'that by cine common action\npolitical and Industrial success could\niho secured was the solution before the\nworkers. Therefore, the answer to thc\nproblem was education. The great organization of union workers must be\nused toward the betterment of the\nwhole of the proletariat. The trade\nunion movement must hot be condemned, it must be used toward tho\ngreater ond now viewed by mental progressives.\nThA capllullsts endeavored to disintegrate the forces of labor, but there\n.wero men in tlie movement who would\nI curry the workers forward to success\n\u25a0 In lis new form.\nI vote of thanks to Mr. Phillips'\n.able and comprehensive address was\n'passed.\nQueen Mine Strike\nSpeaking of the situation at the\nQueen -mine, at Salmo, where a strike\nIs in effect, W. B. Isaac, secretary of\ntbo   Ymir local,   recalled  that  an  In\ncreased scale had been asked at the\nend of 1912 of the various mine managers, who Were all notified. Following a mealing of mlneowncrs ut Nelson, the manager of thc Mother Lode\nmine ut Sheep Creek announced he\nwould pay the scale. That mine employed more men thnn any other In the\nwhale af the rest of thc district.\nManagers of other mines notified the\nunion or their men that they would\npay the scale with thc exception of\ntbe Queen mine, which refused. The\nspeaker went to.that property, where\nthe matter was discussed. The Lemieux act was discussed and there\nwas a difference of opinion as to Us\ninterpretation. Jt was arranged ihat\nWll.iiim Davidson should visit the\nproperty, after which It was agreed\nnotice bad to be given before a strike\ncould legally be declared. After the\ndecision of the conciliation board u\nmeeting of the men took place, those\nwho did not attend agreeing to accept\ntho decision arrived at, and the situation was thoroughly explained. Every\nman at the meeting voted for the increase and la Strike if it were not\ngiven.\nThe union had been blamed, bul as\na matter of fact the union did not\nvole' oij the question until tbe Queen\nmen had held their meeting and voted for the increase. Every effort was\nmado to secure the increase ' Two\nmonths after the strike some of the\nmen went to a meeting of the union\non a dull night with the Idea of carrying the meeting, but they were outvoted and the mine was placed un thc\nunfair list.\nThe men tut the Mother Lode, Wilcox, Dundee, Yankee Girl, Emerald and\nother mines were paying the new scale.\nThe men at the Arlington had also\nbeen paid the Bcule.\nThe Queen strikers named a committee to Investigate whether other\nmines were paying the scale. With\ntlie -speaker the committee found the\nII. M. was paying the scale, alt but,\nthree men were being paid the scale al\nthe Emerald and the manager agreed\nto make' the Increase in these cases.\nUnion  Endorsed\nTlie union had bad no other alternative under the circumstances, concluded Mr. MclBuuc.\nThe convention endorsed the stand\nof the Ymir Miners union and declared that every man holding u union\ncard who was working ut the Qucei\nbe placed on tho unfair list.\nResolutions of tlic convention will\nbe presented lo-lhe Hritish Columbia\nFederation of Labor at Us next annual\nmeeting. .\nVotes ol thanks to the outgoing officers for tlie excellent, work they had\nrendered for the district during the\nyear and for the manner In which\nthe convention had been conducted,\nlo the Nelson Miners' union, and to\nThe Nelson Dally News for What were\ndescribed as Its fair and Impartial reports of the convention, were passed.\nWEEK'S BANK CLEARINGS\nSHOW CONSIDERABLE DECREASE\n(Hv  Dally News  Leased   WiVe>\nTORONTO, .Inn. 22.\u2014Canadian bank\nclearings for the week ending .January  22, as compared  with th0 same\nweek of 10.13, are:\nMontreal    $55,359,108   $57,813,157\nToronto 30,818,7*50 42,344,708\nWinnipeg  24,545,200 29,373.99(1\nVancouver ....   8,741,951 12,107,447\nCalgary        3,030,188 4,782,581\nEdmonton   ....    3,408,530 3,081,441\nOttawa        4,540,300 4,021,879\nHamilton       3,138,707 3,347,328\nVictoria        2,025,587 3,409,030\nQuebec        3,134,285' 3,158,303\nRegina        1,855.783 2,202,078\nHalifax       1,944,550 1,765,802\nSaskatoon    1,525,440 1,700,141\nLondon        1,003,704 1,729,440\nSt. John       1,421,790 2,009,108\nMoose Jaw   ...    1,035,750 1,223,225\nFort William  .    . 839,850 803,244\nBrantford       058,661 078,002\nBrandon        583,707 598,533\nLethbrldge  .. ,       514,480 014,557\nN.

Bust,\nchairman of the committee in charge\nof the preliminary arrangements for\nthe big Chahko Mika week of sport,\nwhich it Is proposed to hold in Nelson\nduring the week commencing July 13\n;of this year, both from residents within and outside of the city, Mr, Rust\nyesterday gave out a statement of thc\nobjects of the event from which may\nhe drawn some Idea of the celebration which It Is proposed to holt! during that week:\n\"The carnival, as most people are\naware,\" said Mr. Rust, \"has been\ncalled Chahko Mlka after a great deal\nof competition for a suitable name\nand a good deal of hard work by the\ncommittee In making the selection.\nChahko Mlka are two Chinook words\nwhich mean 'come you' and the Idea\nof the committee Is to promote a carnival to which not only the people of\nNelson and the district are going to\nbe invited to come, but to which It Is\nhoped will be attracted visitors from\nthe coast and the neighboring provinces and from the states to the south\nof us.\n\"The main object of the carnival\ncommittee is to unite In one week of\nentertainment all the possible events\nthat take place at various times during the summer months and at the\nsame time to call the attention or vis-\n(tors to the natural attractions we possess.\n\"The water course at Nelson improbably unsurpassed In central or western America, and crews from Winnipeg and Toronto have not yet met\nthose of Portland and the coast cities.\nOne great feature of the carnival\ntherefore, will be a regatta in which\nIt is expected crews from Winnipeg,\nToronto, Coeur d'Alene, Portland and\nVancouver and Victoria will be indue\ned to compete. The committee in\ncharge of the water sports have also\nIn view launch races and illuminated\nprocession of launches by night,\nhydro-aeroplane exhibition. canoe\nraces and swimming competitions. In\nthis latter probably some of the champions of the world may compete.\n\"The success of the flower show\nlust July caused tho committee to\nseek the co-operation of the Nelson\nImprovement association, which was\nat onco most cordially and freely glv\nen, and ns a consequence a flower\nshow on a larger scale than has evet\nbeen attempted will be undertaken\nand probably an exhibition of small\nfruits will be held in conjunction with\nthis.\n\"In this connection there is also\nprojected a parade and battle of flow\nera, and possibly a great feature of\nthe carnival will be the selection and\ncrowning of a flower queen1, A very\nvaluable suggestion also has been\nmade that u choral competition among\nthe musical people of the dlstrlci\nshould, bo got up and a strong committee ofi Nelson lovers of music has\nbeen formed, who are looking alter\nthis.\n\"These events will probably lake\nplace in the skating rink and will last\ntwo days.\n\"In regard to land sports, the heads\nof the various clubs and organizations\nhave all cheerfully given their assistance and co-operation and with their\nmembers are working hard to bring\nabout a series of competitions which\nwill far excel anything that has been\nbrought about here before. Lacrosse,\nbaseball and athielfc competitions are\nall being promoted and it is confidently expected that all towns In the\nKootenay and Boundary will send\nteams to compete. In regard to lhe\nathletic competitions or Caledonian\nsports the Y.M.C.A. has promised to\ntakG charge of a day and probably In\nconnection with this there will be promoted a flag drill by the school children or some other event in which\nthey can take a prominent part.\n\"The rifle association has taken a\nvery active part and has arranged for\ntheir annual meet to he held here\nduring the carnival week, find a great\nmany visitors from outside points may\nbe expected. Ten different clubs will\nbe participating and at least 100,men\nshooting, and from these will be chosen a team io represent the interior ni\nthe coast meeting.\nThe gun club likewise is arranging\nits annual shoot for tiie carnival week\nnnd under tbo energetic work of its\nspecial committee this promises to be\nthe largest and most successful ever\nheld here.\nWe must* not overlook, however,\none important matter, and that Is the\ngathering together of the old tlmerp\nof the-district. This feature of the\ncarnival has been most enthusiastlcal-\ny received by those who have done so\nmuch In developing and making known\nthe resources and possibilities of this\ncountry and I feel sure that the wel-\nlome to them which will be given by\nthe people of Nelson will be most cordial and the revival of old interests\nand oltl friendships will do much lo\nstimulate the newer residents In promoting the prosperity of the district.\nThe committee in charge is busy elaborating a program fitting the occasion.\n\"Those lu charge of the various\ncommittees that are looking after the\nevents I have mentioned have the assistance in each case of the active\nmembers of the various \"organizations.\nOf course, there may arise suggestions\nfor other events; In fact, others are\nbeing considered and the details ol\nthose mentioned have to be carefully\nworked out, but I have said sufficient,\nt hope, to show that the week will be\nfull of attractions. I might mention\nthat there will be n0 First of July cele\nbratlou in the way that, has usually\nbeen carried on. Those who have previously interested themselves In this\nare giving all their energies to the\nChahko Mlka.\n\"Id mentioning tiie various committees that are arranging for the events\nto he held we have not overlooked\nmany other Important matters. Strong\nand active committees nave heen,\ntherefore, formed for the following:\nAdvertising, publicity and transporta-\nShilohm\n\"The Family Friend for 40 yesra.\"    A never\nfalling relief for Croup and Whooping Cough.\ntion; general arrangement!) and program; privileges, side shows and entertainments, and grounds, seathg\nand accommodation for visitors.\n\"These last four committees- have a\ngreat deal of hard work before them,\nbut I feel sure that those who nave\naccepted positions on them arc all\nprepared to undertake their share' of\nthe work and make the.whole affair\na success. I might mention that the\nco-operation of the railway comp-uibs\nhere has been already promised and\nthe first step to he taken of advenls-\nIng on a good scale Ib already well\nadvanced so that the work can ha\ngone on with almost Immediately, Of\ncourse, the most important mtUisr for\nconsideration now is the financial one,\nbut apart from saying tint this has\nbeen very fully discussed ill all its\nphases and all concerned enthusiastically believe that this can he arranged and I will deter for another\nday any statement regarding this. Tne\ntime 'has arrived, in my opinion, when\neverybody now should be out ind\nworking for the carnival, \"nd everyone who has a friend who could possibly be attracted here should write lo\nhim or her 'Chahko Mika!'\n\"A very excellent suggestion was\nmade at Wednesday night's meeting\nChat a public or 'get-together' meeting should be held, and George Horstead was good enough to promise the\nuse of the opera house free for this\npurpose. The committee intends to\navail themselves of this kind offer\nand expect to be able to have the\nmeeting addressed by a gentleman\nwho has had charge of some of the\nbiggest similar events In other cities.\"\n\"IRISH FOLK SONG\"\nRICH IN HISTORY\nProfessor Wlllan Deals in Interesting\nWay With Fascinating Subject\u2014\nLegend of Harp.\nTbe heavy debt which the musical\nworld of today owes to Ireland was\nmade clear at the University of Toronto by Prof. Healey Wlllan, Toronto\nConservatory of Music, In his lecture\non \"Irish Folk Song.\" There was a\nlarge gathering for the opening lecture\nof the season. Folk song, said the\nprofessor, Is really the natural melody\nwhich springs from the hearts of Unpeople and reflects in a most astonishing way their joys, sorrows, aspirations and Ideals. The antiquity of\nIrish folk song is remarkable. In the\ncentury following Christ Irish bards\nsat at the court of the Irish king,\nand In the romantic, phraseology of\ntbe race softened bis pillow with\nmusic. It Is also on record that on\nth'e arrival of St. Patrick hards met\nhim and knelt before him and thai\none of them raised his head and said:\n\"Never again shall my heart sing\ntlie praise of any God other than thc\nGod of St. Patrick.\"\nThe earliest allusion to music centred round the harp, and concerning\nthe latter there Is a strange legend.\nA wife who loathed hoi' husband left\nhim and wandered through forests to\nthe seashore, where she came across\nthe skeleton of a whale. The wind\nrushing through the sinews of the\nmammal made a sound that lulled her\nto sleep. rPhe husband followed her.\nrealized the cause of her slumber,\nwent into the forest, broke off a\nbranch of a tree, and with this and\nsinews of the whale made a harp. Another legend dates back to 1800 It. C.\nTwo Irish tribes met in conflict, the\nlosing side capturing the victor's harp,\nand this the king, his chief hard and\na follower set out to recover. At the\nhabitation of the defeated side thc\nharp, which was then supposed to possess supernatural powers, sprang\ndown from the wall towards the chief\nbard, killing nine men in its flight.\nThe bard then played a Willi, and the\nwomen commenced wailing, a song\nof laughter and the youths and maidens laughed, a song of slumber, and\nthe whole host slept, whereupon tlie\nking and his follower escaped with\nthe harp. A supernatural belief associated with the Irish race and music\nIs that tho latter Is the child of a fairy\nwoman aud upon the incarnate is Its\nside.\nThe first Irish scale, which consisted of five notes to the octave, can bo\nproduced by playing the black notes\non a piano, C major with the fourth\nand seventh omitted. After a time a\ndesire for more scope led lo the addition of two more notes to the scale,\nbut how is not definitely known.\nHow Notes Wero Added\nOne romantic? explanation has ii\nthat the notes were put In owing to\ntho sighing of tlie wind. Another that\na- singer happened to sing a wrong\nnote, which someone with a keen ear\nthought sounded rather nice, and\nadded It lo-lhe scale. Professor Wilkin's belief is that tlie additional antes\nare simply due to tho slur. One good\nexample where tbe fourth is omitted\nbut the seventh included Is \"Tlie Lust\nRuse of Summer,\" and 'there are oilier\nexamples where the reverse Is the\ncase. With the advent of Christianity\nmuch use was made of play-song and\nof the two modes which then appealed to the Celtic people was the original minor scale and the scale of G\nmajor as produced nn the while notes\nof a, piano. Harmony at lhe period\nwas uf a very slender nature, 'but\nthere Is a distinct record nf pipes\nplaying an underlying melody to the\nvoice,\"\" quite different to the Scotch\npipes. They were used in a melodic\nsense, and also to form a counter\nmelody lo tlie voice.\nThe Irish people of the time did\nmore than write love songs and lullabies; the yhad their snugs of war\nand of dance,' and of grief and revenge. If people could not, said Professor Wlllan, regard Irish tolk-HOhgs\nwith the love of the Irish race they\nwere at least entitled lo their respect\nif nothing else, because In them was\ntho beginning uf the art of music, an\nart which has done an amazing thing\nfor humanity, an art which Is now a\nuniversal language.\nMURDERER  NOT  INSANE\nWILL BE HANGED TODAY\nBRANTFORD, Ont., Jan. 22,\u2014The\nexecution of James Taylor, tlie half-\nbreed, for the murder last Soptembet\nof Charles Dawson, a 13-year-old boy,\nwill take place here tomorrow as ordered by the court at the time of his\ntrial.

R C, Jan. 22.\u2014Parker\nWilliams, the Socialist member for\nNewcastle, occupied the floor of the\nhouse for two hours at today's sitting\nIn the legislature with his contribution to the debute on the utldress. For\nthe most part his speech consisted\nof a direct attack on the personal\ncharacter of those who are at present\nadministering the government; the\npress came tn for a portion of his\nrecriminations and he devoted some\ntime to a direct attack on the land\npolicy of the government. In speaking\nof tbe disturbances that took place\nduring the past summer on Vancouver\nisland he said that fchey were of no\nmagnitude whatever and inferred that\nthe punishments meted out. to the offenders wero far In excess of the\ncrimes committed. He made a passing reference to Judge Howey of New\nWestminster, whom ho described as\nthe weakest, cheapest kind of man\nwho had ever held judicial office.\n\"He rubbed noses with one section\nof the community so vigorously and\nvllllanously that his mind became saturated with their views, and lie came\nback to dole, out sentences of three,\nsix and 12 months to the offenders\nwho wero brought before him,\" said\ntho member. Referring further to the\ntrouble, he said that the root of the\nevil was the Incapacity and inactivity\nof tho government, and spoke iu the\nstrongest terms of the elevation of\nMr. Justice McPhilllps, who he said\nhad been kicked upstairs as a reward\nfor his blind partisanship.\n\"In view of the experience of the\nlast few months I would go on record\nas being In favor of the popular election and recall of judges in accordance with, the practice of the majority\nof the American states,\" said Mr, Williams.\nHe referred to ithe speech of tne\nmember for Dewdney In moving the\nreply to the address as a mental tango.
