"The Miner was published in Nelson, in the Central Kootenay region of southeastern British Columbia. The Miner was established by John Houston, an outspoken journalist who would later embark on a successful political career, which included four terms as the mayor of Nelson and two terms in the provincial legislature. After leaving the Miner in the summer of 1892, Houston established the Tribune to compete with his former paper. The Miner was published by The Miner Printing and Publishing Company, and the paper's longest-serving editor was D. J. Beaton. The Miner was published under two variant titles, the Nelson Weekly Miner and the Weekly Miner. In 1902, the paper was sold to F. J. Deane, who changed the title to the Weekly News."@en . ""@en .

Respecting the silver question, the lecturer held, to the theory that the trouble was due to limitations on its distribution, rather than to overproduction. He set up bimetallism as the solution of the silver question, but did. not hold out any hope that such a system would he established until an international conference had decided in its favor.

Mr. Suydam had a grip 'full of ore from a group of properties near Bear Lake and in the neighbourhood of Colonel Russel'sjrieli strike made last year. It uppers that the Colonel having followed up the apperantly\",blankefc vein which he discovered has now got it clipping into the hill with every appearence of a strong vein Among other claims located in the neighborhood is the Miner Boy of which the prin- ; cipal owner is the redoubtable Micky Hayes of old time Nelson fame. Development work this year has disclosed a vein of the same quality of dry silver ore as the Colonel's. Micky is now sacking ore that will average 1000 oz. to the ton. Not so bad for an old Kootenay stiff This is a group of properties that can .ship ore with silver at 25 cents an ounce. The far- famed Kootenay country has become noted the world over for its rich properties. Vast ledges of silver- lead and copper- silver bearing ores abound to such an extent that the \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD announcement, of a new discovery along that line fails to awaken anything further than a passing interest. Occasionally, however, a find is made that causes even the most stolid of Nelson's experts to open their eyes, and when sent abroad by various veracious correspondedts, makes the world woq: der anew. ...... One of these was recently made near Nelson. Soma two miles below town on the'line of the C. & K. railroad there has been located one of the most unique finds noted in this section. It is a gold leaf ledge of a richness fairly dazzling to the naked eye. An excellent country rock abounds, and the mineralized formation is a decomposed quartz vein rich in oxides from the original bisulphides. In the honeycombs formed by the washing away of the oxides the leaf shows up in all its brilliancy as if just from the hands of the gold beater. The lucky locators of the bonanza have erected a fence around the discovery point, to keep out the \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BDmany visitors who insist on carrying off rich specimens.

Jt question which the members of the South Kootenay Board of Trade sought to dispose of yesterday afternoon. For months the construction work on the Nelson & Fort Sheppard railroad has been going on, and everyone has been waiting for pay-day. The tardiness of the payments necessitated the discounting of time checks by those who were in need of ready money, at the business houses in Nelson. lu the fulness of time the paymaster arrived arid some of the men received their money, and some did not, but the strange part of the paymaster's action was the ordering of all time checks, taken in exchange by merchants, or held by other than those wrlio worked on the road, to be presented at Say ward for payment. The effect of this move will be that, merchants will not be inclined to deal in time checks at all, and Nelson will thus be deprived of any trade with those employed on the road. B. E. Lemon occupied the chair at. the Board of Trade, meeting yesterday. After the subject had been thoroughly ventilated, it was considered advisable' to bring the matter.into the courts, and make a test case of the time checks, which at present aeei'u LOiead \"payabie God knows when, God knows where.\" The Board appointed a committee conposed of R.. LC. Lemon, president; D. B. Bogle and'Bobt. A. Kenwick, to look into the matter, and secure a good case to put inro the courts, and report. If the committee is successful in securing a good case,the chances are that time checks on the N. A: F. S. wili be paid where they are earned, and .when due.

The Lord Chancellor had declared that he was not inclined to associate himself with so desperate a clause, but would prepare some other arrangement. Then in dealing with the abandonment of the landlords, the Lord. Chancellor had admitted, that their fate would be terrible, but said that they had brought it on themselves. Finally the Lord Chancellor had finished his account of his own intellectual position by protesting'with a vigor thoroughly sincere, against anybody desiring to know the real opinion of any cabinet 'member upon a cabinet bill. The Secretary of Foreign Affairs, Lord Rosebery, also had avoided the burning subjects underlying the government's policy. The problem which-the Foreign Secretary seemed to have set himself to solve was in an hour's speech to avoid giving pledges that might be inconvenient in the future; and he had solved the problem.; with absolute success. Much had been said of the benefits of autonomous government, but there had not been for a century a statesman bold enough to propose that an autonomous colony should send SO members to the Imperial parliament, representing no interest in England and bound by no responsibility with respect to the possible application of laws that parliament passed. The absurdity of such a position was enough to send a man to Bedlam. How could they get rid of Irish questions in the presence of SO members seeking to make themselves marketable wares in negotiations with the ministers? Would these men sent by Archbishop Walsh, be quiet on questions of religion and education ? What appeared to shine visably through all the arguments was a policy of despair, the Liberals having said: \"You have failed, we do not know how to succeed, but we will try something that nobody has tried before.\" What moral or political right had any government to embark on such an experimental policy in Ireland, divided to her base by party conflicts, which during seven centuries of English rule had increased rather than diminish- that he was no enthusiast for Home . ...... . ^ A . Rule. He supported it as the best of three courses open. To adopt Home Rule, continue the policy of rcoecion, or to disfranchise Ireland. ; If coercion were to be continue'cl the future of Ireland would be. a' deplorable one. Secret societies would again be formed, and the reign of assination would be renewed. Coercion was a valuable instrument but' it demanded continuity which it never could obtain. The disfranchisement of Ireland was an impossible course. Home Rule therefore was the alternative. In concluding Lord Rosebery said that the present bill was undoubtedly an experiment, 'but' most legislation was experimental, and Irish legislation was necessarily so. It was a large and generous experiment. It was not a leap in the dark, hut a leap in the light. It was a leap toward the reconciliation of two nations too long divided. The House divided at midnight and the result was the rejection of the motion by a vote of 419 to 41. As might have been expected the press comments on the. action of the House of Lords were strong and varied. The Daily News says:\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BDNothing is more favorable to the success of a political or social reform, than a, large hostile majority in the House of L'.irds. If thecTories had had more sense, they would have made the majority smaller and we should have fared worse. The Daily Chronicle says :\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BDOur reply is extremely simple. The abolition of the House of Lords now becomes a plank of the Radical platform, and the clauses of the Home Rule bill providing for a second chamber in Ireland must be modified. Down with the House of Lords., The Standard says :\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BDWhen a government tamely submits to such a rebuff, the public will draw the conclusion that it. is afraid to face the country.

It is surmised that Gladstone intimated in the dispatch carried to Balmoral,the readiness of the cabinet to submit to the Queen's prerogative to dismiss her present ministers. This intimation would'mean lit tie, however, as he knows' he can' rely on the Queen's discretion to take no step involving the crown in the popular outcry against the \"house of lords. A large and '.influential,-party of the ultra-Tory party expect such diiect intervention from the Queen; but their expectations will hardly be realized.' On the other hand, the Queen's opinion as to.the proper course for Gladstone to take will weigh with him undoubtedly in hastening his appeal to the country. *!EMbW?i ttEt.fcNT 'APZ'IAVATIOS.

The home rule situation grows more interesting now that the government may be forced to appeal to the country. Late London advices state that Sir Hen ry Ponsonby, the Queen's private secretary, passed one night at Blackcrag castle, where Mr. Gladstone is taking a holiday with Mrs. Gladstone and a party of friends. The next morning he and the prime minister had a long interview and before noon Sir Henry left with a special dispatch from Gladstone to the Queen concerning the government's attitude toward the defeat of the home rule, bill in the house of lords. Sir Henry was conveyed in all haste from Black- crag castle to the railway station at Coupar Angus, where an express train carried him to Balmoral. The Queen is known to have awaited \"Nearly all the Cceur d' Alene mines will be working on their full capacity within a few weeks, and we will have a payroll of over $300,000 a month, over two-thirds of which will be expended in Spokane.\" This statement was made by a mine owner to a Spokane newspaper man. The reason given for this was that lead has ad vanced to $6 a ton. \"Yes I mean what I say,\" this man is reported to have said. \" I have a tele- grain in my pocket to that effect, and I believe it is true. The mine-owners are all contemplating opening the mines in the near future, but with an advance in lead to over four cents the> will be started in full blast at the earliest possible moment. Our mines''in the Cceur d' Alene country are-lead-silver mines, not silver-lead mines. This will mean from $200,000 to S300.000 for- Spokane every month. I see no reason why the report should not be true, for when the price of silver went down the production of lead was practically shut off. You know we furnish a large percentage of the lead produced in the United States and it could not take long to run the supply short. The mine owners have beenexpecting something like this for several weeks, but I will acknowledge that the big jump was a surprise to me.\" The above is a sample of the reliable mining news which the Spokane newspapers swallow and then retail to their readers.

It would be interesting at the present time it it were possible to secure Lhe real inside truck of the immense combine against silver-. That many of those who are working' against the white metal are not sincere is well known. That is, they arc really of the opinion that silver will always be able to secure recognition its a, money metal. .But having for the time being the control of the gold supply, they propose to increase its purchasing power to as great a degree as possible. This is the- spirit of the majority of financial speculations, and it as unreasonable for the'friends of silver' to expect anything else. That.even (he goldbugs themselves .have no hope that they will ultimately \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BDdown silver, is almost certain. Tire chances are that the majority of them, if compelled to sincerely slate their opinion as to t he final solution of the problem. woe.Id agree with, the following from the Spokane Keview: \"A gentlei'iian connected with a prominent bankers'publication...in the east, has written a pointed letter to a Denver- banker discussing- the silver issue. Following is a part of Lhe letter. \"Personally I am -desirous' of seeing the Sherman law repealed, to prove to some of our eastern ' calamity howlers' that it is not the cause of our financial ills. On the other hand it will notprove as disastrous to the silver producing states of some of our western friends are inclined'to think. It may, temporarily, limit production, and work some few hardships, but it will be only temporary.'

This is practically the admission made by Congressman Ray nor of Maryland, only a few days ago. \"In my opinion the silver men can well afford to give the anti-silverites all the rope and allow them to repeal the Sherman law unconditionally. The reaction will come in a very short time, and silver will have its day, and it is not far off. Bimetallism for this and all civilized nations, is as certain as the sun that shines.\" Whoever wrote that letter certainly had a keen insight into the future of the This means more than would at first appear. It means.that despite the condition of the metal market, between 20 and 30.tons of ore are being shipped daily^from the Slocan country. In addition to this it is known that a number of the leading properties are taking out ore and storing it until such time as the railroad now being built into that section will enable them to ship cheaper- than , by wagon.' In all there will be between two and three hundred men at work in, the Slocan mines this fall, and the greater number of them will remain during the winter. In fact now that the building of the Nnkusp & Slocan railroad through to Three Forks before winter is an assured thing, it is probable that the present working force in the Slocan may be materially increased for the winter. The upward tendency of lead will no doubt stimulate this section to a great extent. A CHANGE OF POLICY. The world generally has been rather sickened with the \"bridle deep in blood\" style of literature to be found in most of the. western newspapes since ,the silver agitation first took definite form. When this was at its highest, the Miner predicted that it was a sentiment bound to be short lived. That is, that the thinking portion of those communities would soon come to realize that the more sensible course to pursue would be to take up and utilize the many other resources of those great western states instead of raising the foolish and useless to adhere together, then in place of the pulverizers, two roasters are attached which \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD thoroughly dry the dirt as it passes through them. \" Everything works automatically, ..from the raising of the bucket from the shaft to the motions of the screens and agitators.

The Denver Mining Journal one of the new but very influential mining papers of Colorado, has already adopted a new style and many others are following suit. The following \" leader\" from the Journal has the right ring as showing that the \" my way or nothing\" policy is being abandoned. One of the most healthful signs of the growth of intelligence and conservative mining, is to be observed in the general rehabilitation of abandoned gold mines, which were very productive in the past. Improved machinery, cheap transportation, and the ' marvelous advance in metallurgical adaptations have enabled these mines, to be again worked and rendered their ores desirable to the smelters. Far-seeing men.are investigating these old districts and securing at nominal prices, these idle 'mines and converting them into veritable bonanzas. A man can put his money iuto gold mining with assurance that whatever the legislation may be, there will always be a demand for gold, as there are-thousands of millions of dollar's of mortgages and debts in which is written -'Principal and interest payable in gold.\" BiE^-A-icsraieiiES = ^Canada\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BDVictoria, Vancouver, New Westminster, Nanaimo ancl Kamloons.
