"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 .

FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 20, 190.1 THE STRIKE AT FERIE .Commission Should be Appointed to Investigate. IB' IE OF 61 -J)eputy Minister of Labor Coming to \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD Fernie. i'if\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BDS fa--1893- the- Liberal party of the Dominion of Canada met in convention at Ottawa and there declared a policy which in the words of the leader of thepariy, the Rt. Hon, Sir Wilfrid Laurier, not only dealt with, great is- .sues but also with questions which even reniotely affected the Canadian people. The Liberal party was returned to power and how well the interests of the people were protected .and promoted need not be discussed here, because this is not intended as a politically partizan article. The Liberals declared that they were opposed -to anything which decreased the value of property, which oppressed the masses to the enrichment of the few, which checked immigration, which impeded commerce; in a word it may be inferred that the Liberal leader and Liberal party believed it to be one of the functions of good government to war against anything that was an obstacle to the country's progress. The J whole record of Sir Wilfirid ;Laurier and his government demons strafes that that is yet their policy. .-.' ' There is a strike at the Crow's Nest Pass Coal company's mines. All the coal- mines and coke ovens which furnished-fuel to the British Columbia smelters,^are idle. If_the strike continues, all mines and smelters in B. C. must close. Jay P. Graves, manager of the Granby company, the largest employer of labor in the mining district states that \"things are most blue\" \"It looks as if British Columbia is cursed. With our coke gone in 10 days,, there will be nothing for us to do but to close our mines and smelter, letting out 640 to 700 men indefinitely. \"The British Columbia Copper company, operating the Greenwood smelter i\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BDad-mines\",\"with\"abOiit\"300 to 350\"meh7 I suppose, on its payroll, is in the same boat. The StandaTd smelter at Boundary Falls, which, with the Sunset mine works, I per3ume, about 250 men. must also close. The Snowshoe mine, working from 60 to 70 men, will also find its market gone. We shall be unable to handle Republic ores. It looks as if the whole Boundary must close down if we do not get coke speedily. I have no jdea how long the famine will last.\" \"The accident in the Crow's Nest collieries happened last Mav. We closed down completely for a short time and were never able to work more than two of our four furnaces at once until two weeks ago, when all started. With copper around 13 cents, President l^iper announces that we should soon be able to pay dividends. Now this comes and we are completely prostrated again.\" Other mining men thoroughly acquainted with the situation have expressed similar views. It is certainly a case for immediate action on the part of the government. The Pennsylvania coal strike completely tied up the coal mines in that district, and the situation became so serious that President Roosevelt interfered. \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD'. He succeeded in inducing' both coal companies ard men to resume operations pending the finding of a commission. Up to the arrival of John H, Tonkin from Pennsylvania in June last to take charge of the Crow's Nest Pass company's mines, there was no friction between the company and its men in reference to wages. Under the old wage scale the company developed its mines and produced coal and its shares continued to advance in price, demonstrating to some extent that it was not being ruined by tho old wage scale. If this be true the company cannot be seriously nfleeted by agreeing to the operation of its mines pending the finding of a commission. We think the men would agree to this. Sir. Wilfrid Laurier has a precedent in the course of President Roosevelt. In the interests of this province, in the interest of this country, he should use his office for the purpose of terminating the strike. This can best be done by the appointment of a strong commission who will inquire into all the circumstances and condition surrounding the production of coal and coke in the Crow's Nest Pass and its relation to the mining and smelting industries in British Columbia. The mines in the meantime could be worked . on the basis which existed before the labor troubles began. The writer has before him a verba- tion report of a magnificent speech delivered by Sir Wilfrid Laurier in the city of Victoria in the year 189S. Sir Wilfrid holds the key to the situation in Southern British Columbia. To quote his own words used in another connection in that speech \"You are in possession of the key and therefore it is your duty to do; what you can to swing open the gates so that prosperity maj' 'come to this our common land.\" Briefly the men place their demands as follows: The demands of the men are: Placei < to meet in Morrissey and Michel or a chance to buy land on which to build one, a uniform rate of wages almost identical with the rate paid before the last Fernie strike and a full and complete recognition of the unions of the district.\" BAffi OF MONTREAL Will Likely Open a Branch in Spokane. Arrangements Are Being Made With That End in View The Men's Side Why the Strike was Ordered by the Men The Boundary Creek Times made an effort to secure a story from aboth sides in the coal strike. A telegram' was sent to James H. Tonkin manager of the coal company, asking himfora state ment but up to the time of publication no reply was received. A correspondent at Feinie sends the men's side. He says: \"The men and boys working in and around the mines and coke ovens of the Crow's Nest Pass Coal Co. at Morrissey , Fernie and Michel all came out on strike on the morning of Feb. 11th and there is not a wheel turning in either of the three camps. In Fernie the men and boys have been working undr a protest since Aug. 4th 1902. The public at large are more or less acquainted with their grievances. Just 6he~m6ritH~and four\"daysafter the\" big- explosion of May the 22nd 1902 in which 130 men and boys were killed, James H. Tonkin who by tne way came direct from Pennsylvania U. S. A. after the explosion'to fill the position of general manager for the C. N. P. Coal company without consulting the employees, imposed upon them an extra half hour under ground or in oll.er words making it nine hours from bank to bank instead of eight hours from bank to bank as it had been previous to his coming here, aud as it is in every other coal mine in British Columbia. The men were forced to strike or submit to the imposition. After a six weeks strike on August the 4th the Gladstone Miners' Union No. 76 of the W. F. of M. enter- (Cotitinucd on last page.) F. J. Finucane of the Bank of Montreal returned on Saturday from Spokane. Mr. Finucane does not give much bank news to a newspaper man but it is understood that his mission to the Inland Empire city may have something to do with thevopening of a branch of the bank there. Sometime ago it was rumored that the Bank of Montreal would invade Sookane although that city has a fair share of banks now- Besides the business and bustle which characterizes Spokane, affording plenty of opportanity for business for a strong bank like the Montreal, the special! magnet which attracts is the railway enterprise in which D. C. Corbin, Senator Turner and others are interested. They have arranged to build a railway to connect the C. P. R. with Spokane and as the undertaking means an expenditure of several millions, of dollars, t!-sre is a chance for the bank to do some business. Besides the Canadian banks are popular-with-large .firms on - the: other, side. State banks by law are not allowed to make an individual loan for a larger amount than ten per cent of its subscribed capital. This would limit. the amount a single firm could secure from any state bank to $20,000 or $30,000, while the Bank of Montreal and other Canadian banks have been known to make individual advances of several millions. The American banks do not like the invasion and are endeavoring to secure legislation at Olympia which if passed will keep Canadian banks on this side of the line. The legislation is to the effect that foreign banks, having branches in the state of Washington .must pay\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD ^ taxes_on .the.f ulLamount of their capital. This would mean that tne Bank of Montreal would pay on $14,000,000 aud the Bank of Commerce on 310,000,000. As neither' bank would pay this tax, the object of the legislation is to drive them from the state. It is thought that'the bill will not become law but in the event of. the legislature passing it, the Canadian Bank of Commerce will in all probability abandon its Seattle branch, the Royal Bank its Republic branch and the Bank of Montreal will not do business in Spokane. In the meantime the Bank of Montreal officials are not borrowing trouble; they are not in the borrowing business. Arrangements have been made to open up in the Ferndale block, one of the best locations, on Riverside, ave. The management of the branch will be one of the coveted positions in the bank's service. Who the lucky man' will be is' yet unknown but Mr. Fin-, ucane's many friends in the west would like to see him secure the position. In old established institutions like the Bank of Montreal, long service goes a great way towards promotion but sometimes special ability knocks out this rule. Mr. Finucane has had a wonderfully successful career in the west. He is intimately acquainted with its resources and thoroughly understands its people. In the. Sloean and at Greenwood he has had special opportunities for tie- coming acquainted with the mining possibilities and with the Spokane men who have been investing their money in,,British Columbia. To be a successful business man in the west, a western training is required.' As a rule a man from the cent belt is not a success in the west until he gets rid of \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BDome eastern ideas. Mr. Finucaue's appointment would be extremely popular in Spokane and judging from his record during 15 years in the west the interests of the bank would not suffer. City Council. Business Transactnd at the Rogular Meeting. The regular meeting of the city council was held on Monday evening with Mayor Smailes in the chair and all the aldermen present. The auditor's report was received and the trustees'estimates were referred to the finrnce committee to report. A letter was received from Hon. J. D. Prentice, acting premier, stating that no except- ivjn could be made to crown granted mineral _ claims within municipalities with respect to the sale for delinquent, taxes. The indemnity bylaw was read a first aud second time and considered in committee. The annual allowance mentioned in the bylaw for mayor is $500 and for each alderman. $200. .The bylaw will be again considered at the next regular meeting. Board of Trade.

The Globe tm the Strike The president of .the Toronto Globe is Robert Jafi'ray. He is also one of the directors ofthe Crow's'N'est'Pass Coal compan3'. Under the circumstances the Globe^s opinion of managerTonkiu prove interesting. Itsays: \"The information at hand eonceru- ing^the.disputeibetween^the-jnen-and their employers at the Fernie coal mines is not sufficient to ? warrant \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD a judgment. There, one cause of friction which seems plain .enough, .however. One of the demands of the, men is that their union be recognized! and that this is a crucial 'poi'rit is evident from the statement- of the'manager, Mr. Tonkin, that he-.refuses .to recognize the union and that.he is prepqr.ed to close up the mines for eight months rather than do so.'

Others give the teeth no attention till pain compels them. The stupidity and shortsightedness of either policy is evident.

THE LEGISLATURE The legislature will be Opened on March 12th. This ia some six weeks later than the usual time for assembling tbe members but the government had much to do and could not in its own interest hold the session sooner. Its efforts to secure an expression of approral from the elections have not been crowned with success. West Yale is almost certain to follow North Victoria in condemning the Prior government. But there are other means of \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BDecuring strength. Members can be sometimes purchased mere cheaply than the ratepayers. A speakership here and a public office there and a road appropriation in another direction are often verr effective. So far aa the mandate of the people is concerned the bouse should be hostile to the Prior government. The success which attended the proselytizing proclivities of Col. Prior and his colleagues will not be known until tbe legislature meets. As the principal parts of the premier's announced policy is to give away laadii north, cast, south and west to railway corporations it is bojfed that his handiwork has not been too effective and that the elec.ors will have an opportunity at an early date of returning a government that will carry out their mandates. No point can be made out of the fact that the directors of the Crow's Nest Pass Goal company are strict members of the Presbyterian or Methodist church. If mines could be worked without men, the owners could have all the say. This is a greater coal strike than has been. . Three sessions were held yesterday of the presbytery at St. Paul's church, and a large amount of business was transacted, although it will require today to wind up all the matters that are up for consideration. Tn the morning the committee to attend the gen eral assembly, which will meet in Vancouver in June, was appointed, the following clergy and laymen being elected: Revs. Young, Robertson and Fortune, and elders A. K. Farquharson, Greenwood; judge Forin, Nelson; W. S. Graham, Greenwood. In the afternoon session a call from the Kaslo congregation to Rev. James Hastie of Okotoks, Northwest Territories, was read, and the clerk instructed to forward the same. A provisional arrangement was made for the induction of Mr. Hastie, Rev. Dr. Wright being appointed to preside and address the minister, and Revs. Young and Ball to assist in the inductions~ceremonies.\"~The Sabbath school report was read and considered clause by clause and finally adopted. The rest of the afternoon was occupied with a discussion of special evangelical work throughout the province. Dr. Macrae, of Greenwood, in the evening, gave an interesting address on Buddha and Buddhism which led to a long discussion. It was decided to hold the next meeting of the Presbytery at Rossland, if suitable arrangements could be made.

Gentlembh : I. have examined the books and vouchers of the city of Greenwood for the year 1902 and they are all in order and correct. I enclose herewith general revenue account, receipts and expenditure account and balance sheet. According to the general revenue account the Fire Department appear to have cost the'city $938.18 for.the year, including. the driver's salary, but they were credited with $654.for work done on the streets and street sprinkling. The School expense account was a charge on the city of $1,204.45 for the year, but it was only credited with three quarterly grants from thie government as the one for the last three months amounting- to $285.45 had not arrived when the books were closed, therefore the school really cost the city only $918.00 for the year instead of $1,204.45. ^ As the fixed assets of the city were standing in the books at their-original- cost I wrote off a certain amount for depreciation vis., 10 per cent on buildin(s and fire department, 20 per cent on property account, 5 per cent on street.improvements, waterworks and cemetery accounts. I t1id- this on my own initiative and tnut that it will meet with your viewa. The total indebtedness of the city on December 3lst, 1902, was $100,822.35, (including $2,575 only on school account although $5,000 debentures were issued) against $110,720 a year ago, but then there was $2,991 cash on hand in the general account against $113.76 now, so after making allowance for the cash on hand in both cases the liabilities of the city were reduced about $7,000 during the year, which is accounted to a large extent by the proposed tax sale which brought it a large amount of money outstanding for arrears of taxes, and by a reduction in salaries of about $2,000 for the year. Yours faithfully, W. E. HODGES, Chartered Accountant. Auditor.

Holmes For GOOd Work- stimulate the younger members to promote the best interests of the lodge. During' the eveniuing- short but eloquent speeches were delivered by E. Jacobs.Thos. Hardy,J. R. Brown.W.M. Law, W. G. Gaunce, W. S. Keith, J. S. Birnie and others all of whom congratulated the lodge upon its good work and the spirit of good fellowship shown at all its social gatherings. The programme also included songs by F. Fee, R. Stephenson, W. G. McMynn, H. W. Harris, J. L. White, F. Rice, Walter Hadden and Fred B. Holmes. Grauaphone selections by F. Lewin, recitation by C. W. Wilson, and an excruciatingly funny recitation by C. R. Craig of Boundary Falls; musical selections by Messrs Harris and Saunders and several selections by the orchestra. It was two o'clock before the gathering broke up after one ofthe most enjoyables evenings ever spent in a lodge room. Boundary Valley Lodge I. O. O. F. No. 38 held a social evening in its hall on Tuesday evening last. In addition to a large representation of members there were visitors from Phoenix, Mother Lode, Eholt, Boundary Falls and other surrounding points The attendance was a large and thoroughly, representative one. Noble.grand Bannerman presided. The first part of tht. evening was devoted to cards after which an excellent programme was carried out and refreshments served by the members of the lodge. After music by the Greenwood orchestra who by the way received numerous compliments for the excellence of their playing, Noble Grand called on Mayor Smailes to address the meeting. His Worship revealed the particular reason for the social gathering. He called Junior Past Grand Fred B. Holmes to the platform and on behalf of the lodge presented him with a handsome past Grand's collar. In doing so the mayor in fitting terms referred to the magnificent work done by Mr. Holmes' in upbuilding the lodge and also in carrying out the tenets of the order. The collar was o'uly a small token of the great appreciation held by every member of the lodge of Mr. Holmes great services to \"ltrrHe^iSed\"'tl^l:611aF_itpbn Mr.' . Holmes, and the applause which greeted the incident showed that the compliment paid was no empty one' Aid. Ross supplimented the address oif presentation by a short tribute to Mr. Holmes' efforts in the interest of Oddfellowship. Mr. Holmes reply was particularly appropriate. The gift from Boundary Valley lodge would be;one of his'great treasures. He had alweys endeavored to promote the interests of the order and the token not ouly told him that His work was appreciated but also re- tuiiided him of the many warm friends he had made within the lodge room. It was a proud moment for him when he received the beautiful collar and he hoped that the social evening would re- d iiind the advantage of the lodge, because it demonstrated that good service was appreciated and he hoped it would STbAR-PY YUILL Local and Personal.
