"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 .

Such combined notion from such a quarter i.s\nrare, for tlio Loudon merchants, though\nenterprising individually, are as a body\nconservative and slow to movo unless\ndeeply impressed with tho importance\nof immediate action. Tlie fact that\ntbeir choico is also significant, is\napparent for several reasons. Admiral\nLord Charles Beresford is an able and\ndistinguished naval officer, but is not\nsupposed to be versod in mercantile\npursuits, so tho question immediately\narises, why was ho sont? The answer\nseoms to bo that the English leaders of\ncommerce are privately satisfied that\na Armor attitude and stronger measures\nare noeded to properly safe-guard\nBritish interests in China, and consequently they have chosen a man distinguished for his advanced and practical ideas as to tho necessity of our\nnaval supremacy, aud who, though no\njingo, would not hesitate to advocate,\nif necessary, a moro virile treatment\nof the Chinese qusstion. In other\nwords, the money power of London\nwould appear to wish to bc in a\nposition to forco Lord Salisbury's hand\nin his dealings with Russia, should\nthoir interest appear to require it. If\nthis viow i.s correct, this sending out\nof Lord Charlos Beresford may work\nan opoch in English history.\nTho very meagre extracts cabled out\nto us of the comments of tho Times on\ntho subject, seem to indicate that in\nits opinion this step has been taken\ntoo late, and that all tho available\nopenings whero British influence and\ncommerco might bo extended in China\nhave been laid hold of by other nations.\nThe Times has long advocated a less\nyielding policy in tho far East without perceptible results, and possibly,\nthoreforo, takes a rather pessimistic\nview of the situation. The London\nmorchants, who must havo constant\nand exhaustive advices from their correspondents in tho Orient, appear to\ntake a moro hopeful viow, for tliey\nwould hardly have taken such au important action had tho time for effective measures to protoct and expand\nEngland's commerce in China gone\nhy for ever.\nsition, setting forth that these constables liave always been and are entitled to vote. Nobody doubts or even\npretends to doubt, that these men havo\na right to the franchise, but, as a\ndrowning man grasps at a straw, so\nthe defeated conservatives in Ontario\nare raising a great hubbub, declaring\nthat the liberals are legislating themselves into power by means of re-\ntroactive|legislation. Tho conservatives\ndo not attempt to explain away the\nexact precedent set by the greatest\nleader they ever had. They simply\nignore it. Such flagrant paitisauship\ncan but react on the conservative\nparty, who will probably regret too\nrigid an adherence to the old maxim\nthat \"all is fair in love and war.\"\nTHE RUTH MINE.\nA Rieh Property in the Sloean Which\nis Showing up Well,\nII.

The government programme is brief and definite ;\nthat of tho opposition has not so far\nboon very definitely announced hut if\nthey aro foolish enough to take the ill-\nconsidered advise of some of their\njournalistic supporters, much public\ntime and personal energy is likely to\nbo wasted by purposeless and generally\nineffective obstruction. None bnt extreme partisans, even profess now to\nquestion the justioe and common sense\nof the the course pursued by Premier\nHardy, for after as exhaustive a newspaper debate as has ever been accorded\nto any public: question, tho case for the\ngovernment has been so conclusively\nmade out that no legal man, or lay\ncitizon who values his reputation for\nperspicuity, lias any hesitation in\npronouncing in its favor. Of course\nthe situation is a desperate\nono for the opposition and every\nexcuso must be made for che reckless tactics whioh tliey threaten to\nuse, but the friends of good government\nhavo little cause for alarm. The better\nsense of tlio province is undoubtedly\nwith the ministerialists and there is\nno reason to fear tho ultimate outcome\nof the session.\nALAS POOR OGILVIE!\nHow tire the mighty fallen? Until a\nfew days ago the ono man in the public eyo who was, according to conservative estimate, abolntely incorruptible and in whom thoro was no\nspot or blemish, was William Ogilvie.\nBy the chance of circumstances lie had\nbeen sent into the Yukon country\nsome years ago in charge of ,a survey\nparty. In pursuance of that work ho\nbrought out tho first extended data of\nits immense resources and pointed out\nthe necessity of au organized administration, though in parenthesis it may\nbe remarked that tho late governor\npaid no attention to these reports.\nWhen however the present minister of\nthe interior assumed otllce and became\npossessed of the facts, he mado immediate use of Mr. Ogilvie.'s works, and\nas the services of the explorer wero not\navailable then, ho as administrator,\nappointed Major Walsh, a man whom\neverybody recognized as most able and\nreliablo and whoso execution of his\ncommission has proved worthy of that\nopinion.\nThen there was a great outcry that\ntho minister had supplanted Explorer\nOgilvio because he was too holiest a\nman, utterly regardless of the fact\nabove mentioned, that hn was\nnever in authority, and that his original duties precluded his being sent\nback there at that time. Noxt came\nthe reorganization of tlie Yukon administration under the act of last session and the appointment of Mr.\nOgilvio to succeed Major Walsh, the\nlatter retiring according to tho arrangement ho made with the government when he originally aocepted the\notllce. Again camo the chorus of encomiums, and it was pointed out that\nin spite of himself, Mr. Sifton had\nbeen compelled to appoint at least one\nHonest man.\nAN AWFUL DISCOVERY.\nSo far so good, but now comes the\nhorrible discovery that Administrator\nOgilvie i.s a relation of the minister\nand therefore of necessity must bo corrupt and in every way undesirable for\nthe public service, The reckless disregard on the part of thii conservative\npress for the effect upon the publio\nmind which this sudden revelation\nwill have, is reprehensible in tho\nextreme but some allowance must be\nmade for tho natural effect* of the discovery upon the super-sensivitivo\nmoral organism of the opposition\npurists. Whon they have recovered\nfrom the first shock they will doubtless bo in a condition to suggest what\ncourse should be pursued under the\ncircumstances. We can hardly believe\nthat anything will provo satisfactory,\nshort of an immediate recall of this\nlatest Siftoniann connection pitched\nforked into the public crib, and if this\nis not followed by the request for tho\niniiuodiato resignation of the nepotic\nminister, the government will be false\nto its trust!\nMISSED IT AGAIN.\nTho Montreal Star last week remarked, \"that the prohibitionists ap-j\npeared to have great confidence in tho\npromise of the government that the j\nplebiscite would be taken in thc near |\nfuture, and that they certainly seemed j\nto think that the government promise\nof a voto in the early fall is to be I\nkept,\" adding that \"such faith is re- ]\nfreshing.'' The samo paper a few-\ndays later had to announce that September 29, is tho date fixed by tho government for the plebiscite to be taken.\nAnother intsance of speaking just a\nlittle too soon.\nPLEASE EXPLAIN.\nTho Toronto Mail and Empire is out\nwith a challenge to any one to produco\na single caso in which either Sir\nCharles Tupper or his sou ever did\nwrong. It declares that Sir Charles\nTupper's opponents have been blackening his character for party purposes\nand depicting him as a sort of a stage\nvillain, etc. We respectfully suggest\nto the opposition organ that, it tlieir\ndefense of\" the two leaders is honest,\nthey will explain what they meant on\ntho memorable occasion when they\ncharacterized the worthy Baronet as\n\"The Prince of Political Cracksmen.\"\nNono of the nasty Grits have, ever said\nanything half so unpleasant.\nA TRUE PATRIOT.\nSo good of the leader of tho opposition to consent not to make a noise\nwhile the Quebec conference is in session aud no wonder tho conservative\npress herald forth his noble decision\nwith flaring headlines\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\"Patriotism of\nSir Charles Tupper\", and so forth.\nThe country will learn with approval\nthat* Sir Charles Tupper has experienced a change of heart\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD'' under the\ncircumstances I feel that the conservative party must consider tho interests\nof Canada bofore tho interests of\nparty\"\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BDat last they admit what others\nhave long contended, that as a rule\nparty comes bofore country. But its\ntoo liad of the conservative papers to\nrub it in by calling such marked attention to the change, when they have\naided and abetted their old leader in\nhis unpatriotic course for so many\nyears.\nTHE SPANISH CENSOR.\nnelson cafe.
