Speaking as\nthe representative there of the\nMine Workers' International\nUnion, he said that he had'opposed the previous attempt to induce a general strike, and he had\nno reason to change his position.\nAs the representative of 400,000\nmine workers in every part of\nthe Unitied States and Canada,\nhe had responsibilities towards\nthe 398,000 who were not resid-\ningon the island, which compelled\nhim to take the wider view. He\nfailed to see what benefit a general strike in the province would\nbring to the miners on the island\nunless the strikebreakers could\nbe persuaded to take part, which\nwas not likely. Furthermore, as\nit was an honorable agreement\nthe striking miners were seeking,\nwhat kind of consistency was\nthere in asking members of other\norganizations as well as those of\ntheir own who were working\nunder such agreements, to break\nthem \u00E2\u0096\u00A0 in order to assist in - the\nmaking of another.\nNO. 6 NINE\nBREAKS RECORD\nThe Daily Output of Cumberland\nMines will Average\n3,500 Tons.\nNo. 6 mine on Thursday put\nall previous records in the shade\nby hoisting 500 tons in 8 hours,\nNo. 4 hovers around the 1.000\nton mark, No. 5 generally goes\nover 1,000 tons per day while\nNo. 7 hoists between 700 and\n800 tons per day, leaving No. 8\na new mine, out of the question.\nThe daily output for the Cumberland mines when working is\nnot far off 3500 tons per day With\na generous supply of shipping it\nis easily seen what that means\nfor this city.\nWEED INSPECTORS\nAll Provincial Constables and\nForest Guards have again been {\nappointed as agents for thei\nDepartment towards the en-j\nforcemerit of the provisions of\nthe Noxious Weeds Act. In\naddition, Noxious Weed Inspectors have been appointed in different districts of the Province,\nwhose duties will be to carefully\ngo over their districts, see that\nfarmers and land owners are\ntaking the necessary steps to\ndestroy the weeds growing on\ntheir lands, and in the event of\nnon-compliance with notices\nserver] on them, to institute proceedings against them.\nThe department is determined\nto use every legitimate effort to\nhave the provisions cf the Act\nstrictly enforced and we look for\nthe whole-hearted co-operation\nof the farmers themselves in\nthis most important matter.\nMiss Hazel Lockard of Pitts-\nfa irg, sister of J.

Over.sixty are representing unions in the cities of Victoria, New Westminster Vancouver\nand forty others from other Island\nand interior points.\nThe convention was called to\norder by President Watchman,\nwho introduced Mr. Robert Foster, president of District 28 of\nthe United Mine Workers of\nAmerica to explain why the call\nfor a special convention was\nissued. \u00E2\u0096\u00A0\"\nMr. Foster stated that the\nminers now on strike on the\nIsland wereprimari!}' responsible\nfor the call, as they were now\nsatisfied that a change of policy\nwas needed in the methods to be\nadopted to bring this strike and\nconsequent troubles to a finish.\nPersuasion and pleading methods had, he stated, utterly failed\nto produce anything approaching\na solution, and the miners desired\nto consult the members of other\norganizations in the province\nwith a view to taking some common action.\nPresident . Foster reveiwed\nshortly the history of the miner's\nstrike, but dealt principally with\nnegotiations and communications\nwhich have been passing between\ngovernment and union offices\nwith a view to settlement.\nHe declared that no settlement\nwas possible which would compel\nthe striking miners to work\nalongside of incompetent men,\nwho in hundreds of cases were\nunable to read or understand\nthe regulations and notices. He\nmaintained that the letter and\nthe spirit of the Coal Mine'\nRegulation Act was being violated\nwholesale and that the lives and\nlimbs of the miners would be\nhourly endangered if they were\nto return to work under prevailing conditions.\nDealing with the Asiatic side\nof the question, Mr. Fosler stat-\n: ed that the Mine Worker's Union\nwas prepared to accept Asiatics\nas members, if competent, but\nthat question of competency did\nnot now trouble the mine mana-\nager and that at Cumberland 200\nper cent more Asiatics were now\nemployed than at the commencement of the trouble, He further\npointed out that there were no\nwhite firemen empolyed any-'\nwhere at the mining camps on\nth& Island, and as law requires\na candidate for an engineer's\ncertificate to have six month's\nexperience as a fireman and no\nsuch positions were open to white\nmen, that the logical result would\nbe Asiatic engineers in the near\nfuture, unless. conditions were\naltered.\nPresident Fosterf urther claimed that there were at least six\nmen being retained in jail at\nNew Westminster whose time,\naccording to sentence, had now\nexpired, and that letters to the\nAttorney-General of the province\nhad failed to produce satisfactory\nreplies. In regard to conditions\neven now at Nanaimo he said that\nno striker was allowed to stand\nanywhere on the public street\nwhen the strikebreakers were\ncoming from work.\nAppealing to the convention in\na general way for assitance, he\nindicated that what they were\nnow looking for was not new\nlaws, as they had been unable to\nenforce what they had, but as\nthe workers comprised 80 per\ncent, of the voters of the province, that combined action\nshould be taken at the ballot box\nin order to ensure a satisfactory\nadministration. Concluding, he\noffered this as a possible remedy\nfor existing conditions arid stated\nstated that in calling for a special\nconvention, the object aimed at\nwas to devise ways and means of\ntaking joint action throughout\nthe province in this direction.\nThe convention is in session\nagain this afternoon, when the\nmatter referred to by Mr, Foster\nwill be under general discussion.\nVice-President Bancroft of the\nTrades and Labor Congress of\nCanada, was an interested listen-\nthis morning and he will address\nthe convention at a later session.\nE.
