BRUNDIGE\nEditor and Proprietor of the Miami\nHerald.\nspare of four years. The mere recital of this fact is testimony sufficient as to his energy. Perhaps such\na record is unique in the craft. From\nwashing printing rollers to writing\neditorials\u00E2\u0080\u0094he has descibed the whole\no! the wide arc, and in a period of\ntime almost unparalleled in its brevity. \"Devil,\" apprentice, Journeyman-\nprinter, foreman \u00E2\u0080\u0094 reporter, editor,\nproprietor\u00E2\u0080\u0094and all between May 10,\n1900, and the fall of 1904! Mr. Brun-\ndige's friends Fay that \"push\" and\nenterprise are his dominating characteristics. In the face of the facts\nthey may well be believed.\nMr. Brundige is ot United Empire\nextraction, his parents residing\nat Shclburne at the time of his\nbirth. He was educated at the public\n\u00E2\u0096\u00A0schools of that town, and at the age\nof seventeen commenced his journalistic career on the Free Press of\nthat thriving Ontario town. As already stated, when he left that paper\nlt was In the capacity of foreman. His\neyes had already been turned toward\nthe Northwest, and-in April of 19U4\nhe came to Winnipeg, and after a\nbrief survey of the field he commenced negotiations for tho purchase\nof the Miami Herald, which he finally\nsecured. The change in proprietor\nand editorship was at once noticeable\nin the improved tone and appearance\nof the paper. Week after woek its\ncirculation grew, u.:d its advertising\ncolumns became a more adequate\nreflection of the mercantile importance of the town in which the Herald\nIn this series of life sketches of the\nmen who are the public recorders,\nand, to a large and increasing extent,\nthe moulders of public opinion,\nthroughout the Canadian West, threo\ncharacteristics are observable in them\nas a class\u00E2\u0080\u0094ui'st and primarily, their\nyouth; second, their enterprise, and\nthird, their energy.\nJournalism is pre-eminently a profession for young men. For one man\nengaged therein who has passed livo\nand thirty of life's milestones there\nmust be many who are less than that\nage. Perhaps it Is because, like the\nsomewhat kindred profession of teach3\ning, newspaper work is often regarded, by those engaged therein, not as\na life-work, but ns a temporary means\nof securing, amid attractive surroundings, the means necessary to complete\na life training in law, medicine, or\n.some other occupation. Another reason may be that newspaper men, wbo\nnf necessity come into touch \"with\nbus!. ess men who instantly appreciate\nability, are drafted oil Into other lines\nof activity, by a continuous absorption carried out through moro tempting remunerative rewards. And, after a few yenrs the glamor of newspaper work largely wears off to the\nmen who are in the business, and the\nSteady \"grind\" of daily work becomes\nmore nnd more the outstanding feature of the life. For newspaper work\nis a \"show-down\" day by day. The\ngood editorial In last week's issues, or\nthe big \"scoop\" made yesterday, wont\navail anything to-day if your competitor .get8 or has the bettor news service. A newspaper dlffors from a\nbank in that It can havo no \"rest.\" nu\n\"reserve.\" A grocer who deals honorably\nliy his customers Increases thoir inini-\nber.and nftor a time can leave all details to subdrdinateS, and secure a good\nIncome while enjoying a well-earned\nrest as the result of honosL dealing. So can a lawyer with his client.',\nand almost every other profession or\nbusiness. But with the editor it ls nol\nbo. Yostordav's success cannot alone\nfor today's failure. Tho reading public consldor nothing but the issue\nthey ure reading; they do not relate\nit to its predecessors, Hence, as\nmany an old newspaper man has remarked, whon lu* was weary of the\nforced gait he had to maintain to\nkeep abreast of younger and more energetic men\u00E2\u0080\u0094\"Tho newspaper business Is a good busiuess\u00E2\u0080\u0094to get out\nof.\"\nThe Canadian Wost, like every\nother young country, is essentially the\nlund of opportunity for young men.\nNewspaper work, as before noted, boing In an especial degree a young\nman's profession, it Is to bo expected\nthat in Western Canada tho men controlling tho press would in average\nago be much below those in other\npails of tho continent. This Is remarkably truo. \"Hoy editors\" am\nnot phenomena in Manitoba nmi the\nNorthwest Territories, as tliey nre\nelsewhere. Moro lads who have not\nattained their majority are frequently\nfound in charge of papers whose influence and Importance uro In Inverse\nratio to (he ngo of those ln whoso\nCharge thoy nro found.

Attention to tho many\ndetails of mechanical make-up is evi\ndent in every issue, and few papers\npublished in a town of similar pop\nillation will show to greater ad\nvantage than that published by Mr.\nBrundige. His jobbing plant, too,\nhas been selected with care. It was\nalmost wholly supplied by tho Toronto Typo Foundry Company, and is\nas much a tribute to the beauty of\ntho type faces carried by that institution as to tho knowledge and taste\nshown by their purchaser.\nAs a local newspaper the Herald\nleaves littlo to bo desired, when the\nrango ot action its editor has marked\nout for himself is considered. The\nhappenings of the district are received with faithfulness, and oftentimes with humor. Of this humor, by\nthe bye, Mr. Brundige has a notable\ngift, and in addition is somewhat of\na poet. When ho was on tho Shel-\nburne Free Press his comic poetry\non current events and well-known\nmen was watched for with interest by the paper's readers, and\nsince his acquisition of tho Herald\nhe has frequently broken out in the\nsame direction. Since ht* has assumed the ownership and editorship\nof the Horald Its business has almost\ndoubled, which, for a nine months'\nrecord, speaks for itself as to the\nenergy and enterprise of its proprietor. Taken for all in all tho\nMiami Herald man mav be described\nas a \"comer\"\u00E2\u0080\u0094one from whom things\nmay bo heard in the future, ln his\nbrief tenure editorial responsibility\nho has approved himself both lor\nability ami lodgment, and na bids\nfair to fully realize the confide K expectations'of his many friends.\nIn .Nnluro'ia Storehouse Thrrr Arr\nCurve\u00E2\u0080\u0094 Medical experiments have\n\u00E2\u0080\u00A2bown ooncluilvelj that there are\nmedicinal virtues i\" even ordinary\nplants growing \u00C2\u00BBp around um. which\ngive them a value tbnt cannol bs >*\u00C2\u00AB-\ntlmated.

C\nFRIDAY, FEBRUARY 10, 1905.\nEDITORIAL CUOl'PINliS.\nPremier Ross of Ontario has resigned aud Hon. Mr. Whitney has formed\na Conservative government iu his\nplace. The people will get what they\nvoted for.\nA rare old rumpus is on nmong (he\nLiberals in Quebec, and three of the\nprovincial cabinet have resigned, they\nobjecting to the presence among Ihem\nas a follow-ministeiof Hon.D. Monet.\nHon. R. L.

Association would fain follow where others\nlead. They, too, favor a commission\nto inquire into the working of the two\nper cent tax. Surely the government\n\u00E2\u0080\u00A2will beed the request of the P.M.A.\nRossland boanl of trade has passed\na strong resolution urging the dominion government to investigate the selection of the public *oal lands in\nEast Kootenay. Wholesale fraud\"\nand crookeduess on the part of interested officials is alleged, while tlie C.\nP. R. is accused of swiping valuable\nJands that iu no way belong to them.\nThe Slocan is quite prominent these\ndays,anotber property having ilecla red\na handsome .dividend. On the 20th\ninst. the Reco will distribute lo its\nstockholders $20,000 and the promise\nof a similar distribution in the spring\nis held out. Dividends aro a great\nattraction to investors, for whom the\nSlocan offers exceptional advantages\nand openings.\nA sliding scale of rates, that practically amounts to a penalty on high\ngrade ores, is not conducive to the\nwell-being of any camp. Yet, such\ntreatment is meted out to dry ores\nfrom the Slocau City division by the\nHall Mines smelter, of Nelson. The\nOttawa mine, (Springer creek,posses8es\none of the most valuable grade of ores\nin thc country, besides being very-\ndesirable as a flux. A minimum rate\nis imposed on all oro under IW) oz in\n.silver of $lJ per ton; if the ore reaches\n150 oz it must pay -810j and for every\n100 oz or fraction above that another\n$1 per ton is inflicted. The rate is\nunfair and unjust, but the Ottawa\nmust suffer it or leave its ere unmarketed, As au excuse for the peculiar\ntreatment accorded,the smelter poople\nsay thaiy eaunot afford to bave their\nworking capital lied up in extra rich\nores. Time was wheu the dry ores\nfrom this division received different\ntie.itmt'iit, but that was before the advent of the Hunter V mine, at Ymir,\nin which smelter .people are interested.\nFor Instance, the Arlington mine was\n.once credited with a $-r> rate, but $7.r>()\nwas the usual charge on local ores,and\nthey were eagerly Sought after. Our\nores contain practically all thu ingredients of a lirst-class flux and any\nsmelter should ba glad to have them.\nMoreover, they are further desirable\nbecause their richness tones up in\nvalue the smelter's bullion. Hunter\nV ore cannot ni;ike a rich bullion, but\nbecause smelter people are Inter-jsted\ntherein, other dry ores must be penal*\nized. The rate given the Buntor V is\nless than one-half that imposed on the\nOttuwa.yot of the two ores the < Ittawa\narticle I* preferuible. The Hall Mines\nsmelter is so hedged around with\nfavoring railroad rates that the Ottawa\npeople cannot ship tn outside points,\nUnder existing circumstances it Is\ndifficult to induce capital to seek in\nVestment here.\nDRILL POINTS.\nPay dp your subscription.\ntimber Inspector Martin was here\no-i Tuesday.\nFor first-class bread go to J.
