"The Boundary Creek Times was published in Greenwood, in the Kootenay Boundary region of southern British Columbia, and ran from September 1896 to March 1911. The Times was published first by the Times Publishing Company (1896-99), and then by the Boundary Creek Printing and Publishing Company (1901-1911), and its longest-serving editor was Duncan Ross (1897-1907). In April 1911, the Times was absorbed by another Greenwood-based paper, the Ledge. The Times was revived in 1983, and it continues to be published out of a small building in downtown Greenwood to this day."@en . ""@en .

A New Restaurant in the Flood-Naden Block, Run on the LIVE AND LET LIVE PLAN Our Tea, Coffee or Cocoa is Always Fresh and Well Made The mineowners of the Slocan are determined that the men shall accept a reduced rate of wage, the consequence of the early enforcement of the eight- hour law, and the men, who are well organized, are equally determined to hold out for the old rate of wage. All the mines in the vicinity of New Denver have been closed down, and the miners are idle. The New Denver correspondent of the Nelson Tribune writes :\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD \"The cessation of work applies to the underground work mainly, for several properties are continuing surf ace development. Many of the riien are heading for the Lardo-Duncan conntry where they will spend the summer prospecting. In the towns, however, one can notice a contraction in business circles, and the merchants are complaining of deteriorating sales. Some of the hotelkeepers in the camp are favoring the5 closing of their dining rooms so as not to incur the expense of holding up the men. Luckily, however, these advocates are few in number, and the men will rind universal good treatment, as in days of yore. It is reported that the mineowners have given warning to the men . on their respective staffs refusing to sign the new schedule that they will not get another chance for employment when the wage question is settled. No farmers from Ontario or Manitoba have yet made their appearance to take the place of the men on strike.\" A despatch from Ymir states :\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD \"At midnight\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BDJune 2-3\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BDa special train arrived with six men for the London & British Columbia Goldfields, who had been sworn in at Nelson last evening as special constables for the defence of the property and employees of the Ymir mine, owing to a telegram having been sent down by an official of the company here to the effect that their lives and property were in jeopardy, which is a gross exaggeration and entirely uncalledfor. The posse of special constables were met by Capt. Forrester, chief of police here, on arrival, and they (the specials) proceeded up to the mine this morning in the execution of their duties. The leading article in the Tribune of this morning has been read with extreme satisfaction by all the residents in the town and by the miners themselves. In conversation with a prominent member of the Miners' Union he said the action of the Ymir Gold Mines, Limited, in applying for special police protection was quite uncalled for and entirely unwarranted, that no threats whatever had been made, and that the men simply quit work because they had been refused \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD3.50 for an eight-hour shift, and were now quietly awaiting for the government to step in and arbitrate, and his idea was that pending such arbitration the mineowners should shutdown. As far as your representative could discover, everything was going 011 smoothly ; the Miners' Union have their men well in hand, and were quietly waiting the issue of events by the government taking measures for arbitration. The miners of this camp have always been peaceful and lawabiding, and Captain Forrester reported this morning that the town had never been so. quiet. Fifteen of the men who quitted work from the Ymir mine took the evening train yesterday for Nelson. The camp is under the most excellent police control, and there are four justices of the peace in the town, and there is no question whatever that law and order can and will be maintained. J. Roderick Robertson, general manager of the London & British Columbia Goldfields, arrived here by the 11:17a.111. train and proceeded up to the Ymir mine. He returned to Nelson on the evening train.\" Says a Kaslo correspondent:\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD \"On today's\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BDJune 1st\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BDtrain, were 120 passengers, the largest tier the train has brought in for time.

All the mines in the district shut down today, letting out their men : the greater part of them are going to the Cieur d'Alettes, Montana, and Colorado, while some will remain here doing assessment work and waiting for the mines to open up again. A good many of the miners were in favor of accepting the S3 and going back to work, but the majority wanted to fight for their j demanded rights, so it was decided to refuse the offer of the mineowners.

Mr. Harlan says in part: It is rather late to wriie a letter after so long a delay; but don't think that I have forgotton you, or any of my friends in Greenwood. Yesterday' the thought came stronger than ever about writing you. I am lying around in camp now doing nothing but guard and fatigue duty, and all I can think of is getting back to America. I was telling the boys here of the royal Christmas dinner I partook of under your generous hospitality and our months fairly watered when I ran over the menu, and you could, not wonder why our minds turn to anything good to eat after seeing some of the army fare we have to put up with at times..'..';..,:..., I have just passed through an active campaign, which took all the strength arid nerve the strongest of us could put forth, to keep up under. The advance on Mololos'' was started from Manila on the 25th of March, and we reached and took this place on the 31st of March. In that time we marched abotit forty miles and fought six different battles and numerous skirmishes. In fact it was nearly a continous fight from beginning to end for us, because there-was hardly an hour of the day but what bullets were flying towards us and from us. Our brigade had the most travelling. Mololos is distant twenty-one miles from Manila but our brigade was sent out on the right flank to drive the Insurrectos into the hills which we did and rejoined the main advance1 at a town called Polo, on the railroad. The whole advance then kept near this road and advanced most of the way in line of battle. The Insurrectos made their hardest tight at the Marilao river. Here they had an uncommonly strong position. It was here the 'South Dakota volunteers (my regiment) received their best reputation as a fighting regiment. We made a two mile charge and drove everything before us and to the side of us. We cleared two strong natural positions and two fine trenches. The last big trench was on the bank of the river across froni us. VVe jumped into the river and went across right in front of this trench. But fortunately the enemy had become panic stricken before we reached the river and all but a few left before we crossed. They could not stand the rapid advance we were making and deserted the strongest kind of a position. But before all these trenches were cleared the enemy killed and wounded a good number of our men. The Mauser bullet has a wicked pinge and before we were* through I heard many and many of them come near me but fortunately none touched me. In the great din and uproar ..j>ne pays little attention to bullets. More of our regiment went down with the heat than with bullets. I half fainted before the last trench and sank down. I lay in an exposed and dangerous place for a few minutes. One of the boys of company E. passing me poured water on me and I soon revived and went on in time to help on the last trench. I havertbeen able to always stay at the front. My health has been excellent, I have not missed one hour's dutj'yet. But I have had all the war I want not because of the fighting but because of the ill treatment one receives from the hands of petty officers and one's own government. I have little respect for the present adminis- teration at Washington. I shall never be as patriotic again, and will be contented to leave well enough alone in future. I made too much of a sacrifice to get to serve my country in the first place and when I think of the chicanery and double dealing and selfishness shown towards the volunteers my soul revolts, at further service for such an administration. The service is too hard for such ungreatful cohnivers. They have us here and they are trying all manner of ways to hold, us here. But I should not complain perhaps. The joy of getting back among my fridnds again will cause all this feeling of belligerency to vanish. About the first thing I do when I g.-t back to Greenwood will be to walk out to your home and go to your back door and ask for a hand out. For a poor back door hand out is mtich better than what I get here. This'soldering will be a good ex- perience for me in some ways, but in '\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD other ways the experience has been more detrimental, than useful. I have , no one to blame but myself; I can see ; how where my friends' judgement was better than my own. Still I love ad- ; adventure and if I could be more in-' dependent I would still he in for ad-, venture, but when handicapped by \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD officers and army discipline I care for j no more. When I go to war again it will be on my own account. GREENWOOD is the financial and commercial centre of oundary Creek district. It is the supply point for the mining camps.

As one delegate put it, Martin simply made rag- of Cotton, charging him with rank disloyalty to Vancouver, of which Martin proclaimed himself the champion. He freely revealed details of the proceeding of tecent cabinet meetings, and, it is said, virtually gave Cotton the lie. Semlin seemed greatly distrassed at Martin's violence and repeatedly begged him to be more temperate, but the atiorney-general took no notice of the premier's remonstrances. Greenwood, B. C.

The Victoria Colonist poked fun at th\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD- Canadian Bank of Commerce, calling it a giddy thing, and wondered what the English shareholders in the Bank of B. N. A. would think of its enterprising B. C. officials. It turns out that the banks knew more about their business than outsiders and were , able to mere accurately gauge the bright future of the city. Each bank has been forced.to increase its staff to keep pace with the growing business. The Bank of B. N. A. was fortunate in securing commodious quarters at [the start, but the other banks have been forced to secure larger offices. The, Bank of Commerce has handsome offices in the, Naden-Flood block, and next week the Bank of Montreal will move into quarters in the Rendell block that would do no discredit to a city of 10,000 inhabitants.

The mines of the district are so directly tributary to the city that its growth and prosperity.\" naturally depended upon the activity displayed in the development of the mineral resources in the., immediate vicinity.

Nexl.week the Times will publish a conservative estimate of the outlay in buildings since January 1st, 1899. In the Xmas number we had an estimate of the value of the buildings I in the city. From figures gathered it j will be seen that these values have j been more than doubled iduring the i past five months. While the highly entertaining dispatches sent out from Victoria relative to the-trouble between fighting \"-Joe \" Martin and F. C. Cotton should be largely discounted there is a strong probability that there is some fire with so much smoke.' The government is'a peculiar organization. The strength of the Turner party lay in the weakness of the opposition. . The Turner government- was defeated not by. a party but by the. dissatisfied people. The Semlin government was patched up simply to meet the exiegencies of the hour., Mr. Martin and Mr. Cotton are both ambitious. Both are clever. The one is fearless and the other is astiite. Th'ey both realize that age and incapacity will force Mr.'Semlin to retire from the premiership and are fighting for the position. ' It is quite possible that while they are fighting each other, the position may 'go to some one else.

We endeavored to please everyone but the advertising patronage has increased to such.an extent.that we\" find it necessary to enlarge the paper to an eight page.

With the advent of a rail way and telegraphic communications, a daily paper will be a- necessity if Greenwood continues growing as rapidly as at present. Until a daily is possible we will bublish an eight page paper, the largest weekly published in the interior of British Columbia. 1\ KETCHUM. S. KEITH, M. .15.

It is hoped situated that the only influence that could successfully retard its growth is the failure to develop the mining ., possibilities of Boundary creek district. As such failure is indeed remote there can scarcely be a tiotibt that since Boundary creek is to be one of the greatest mining districts in the world, its metropolis Greenwood will be corresponding!)- important. The time.when Greenwood will take rank among the mining and commercial centres can be hastened by the citizens.' All that is required is a unity of purpose and a fixed determination to leave nothing undone that will promote the best interests of the city. that the invitation will be accepted. To visit the mines of B. C. without seeing the mines in Boundary Creek would be like seeing Hamlet played with Hamlet left out. CORYELL'S MAP, Price $1.25.

The following from the Rossland Miner shows that the business men of Rossland not far behind those of Greenwood in the small amount of interest they take in public affairs: If the board of trade of Rossland would direct its energies in some reasonably intelligent manner and not in the fitful, hysterical fashion which seems to characterize it, some benefit might accrue to the town from its existence. At the present time Rossland is badly in need of public buildings and it is now that a vigorous effort, properly directed, might result in the Dominion government putting such a subsidy in the estimates as would meet our present requirements. Nothing, however, in this direction has been done beyond a brief request made, by wire, to the member for the district to use his influence with the government and a commission very negligently given to some prominent citizens, whose business happened to call them to Ottawa, to lend their support. There has been no earnestness in the representations made from here\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD no insistance such as is absolutely essential to obtain favors from a government. And now instead of pressing for what is so urgently needed, and pressing at the most critical time, the board flies off on another scent and sends out a feverish message to the boards of trade in the district asking for co-operation in a demand for a separate reprssentative for the Kootenays \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BDin the Dominion house. We are at a loss to see what is to be gained by this demand. On the face There are now twenty-six Liberal members in the senate, and when the late Senator Boulton's place is filled the number will be twenty-seven. The full number of the senate is eighty-one. It is, therefore, very clear that if the present government remains in power much longer the senate majority will be Liberal, without the exercise of the power vested in the Governor-General to appoint six new senators, when the interests of the country seem to demand it. We submit that it is not desirable for the senate to become and be recognizedas a partisan body, but we greatly fear that the tendency is in that direction. \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD Indeed, such a result is almost inevitable under our political system, it matters not what party is in power. Rightly or wrongly makes no difference; the Liberals believe the senate,- as at present constituted, is strongly partisan against them, and if they ever have a chance' to alter its political complexion we may depend upon it that the partisan spirit will not be eliminated. Hence, as under any circumstances political partisanship is likely to find expression in the upper chamber, the people of Canada ought to consider if some change in the manner of filling vacancies in that body cannot be devised with advantage. Speaking the other day in parliament Sir Charles Tupper said that if the senate should throw out a bill which the government of the day regarded as of prime importance, the remedy of dissolution was always available, and that the senate would never go contrary to the opinion of the people'expressed at the polls. If this is the object of the senate, to compel an appeal to the people, the danger of its becoming a partisan body is increased. We confess never to have been enamored with the idea that any body of legislators in Canada who are beyond the reach of the people. Comparisons between the House of Lords and the Canadian Senate are quite useless. The > House of Lords is a survival from the j earliest days of British parliamentary : government. British institutions have i grown up with the House of Lords, \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD forming an integral part of them. It is a unique body. Its existence proves nothing except that it is not a menace to British institutions, which it could '\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD not very well be, because it is identified , to an extraordinary degree with British interests. No appointive body in Canada can possibly fill such a position as the House of Lords in the United Kingdom. Hence any references to the latter are of little use in determining the value of the senate. To believe that a change is necessary, and to devise a new method of filling vacancies are very different things. We think a majority of the people of Canada favor a change, and that the Conservative party will make a mis- ! take to set itself against it on principle, ; whatever attitude :t may take on the details of the proposed amendment. The votes of the legislatures of three of the Eastern provinces havebeen in favor of an alteration ot the B. N. A. act in this regard, and we venture to , say that Manitoba and British Colum- ; bia would vote in the same way if the single issue could be presented to them, j \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BDJ5ift Contractors and Builders H n\" m TURNING AND BANDSAfffE M A SPECIALTY.
