Mr. Purdy, who has occupied the Presbyterian pulpit for the last two months, has decided to leave the first of April and take the theology course in Manitoba college, Winnipeg. Mrs. Hale, mother of Mrs. Barton of this city, died in Vancouver on Sunday last. The deceased had been in poor health for -some time,, though not seriously ill, and her death was unexpected. Fred Loudon was killed in his cabin at the Molly Gib-Jon last week, and Chris Sherbert extricated himself after 36 hours of marvellous exertion, as a result of a heavy snow slide near the mine. During the last three years or so our tinhoiri parliamentarians knew ]v>t- the legislation this oountrv wanted. They passed it, and now the trouble is to Und Last Wednesday's storm was the wildest this year. Rossland ore shipments this year to date are 55,928 tons.

You may, fish trout after the 15th of March, that is if yon can catch any. H. J.'Robie has sold out his tailor business.at Nelson, and has removed to Kelowna. Ping-pong has not broken out in Sandon yet, but we suppose the craze will extend'even to our quiet retreat. The Montana Gold Mining Co. at Deerpark" are going to put up a 50-ton concentrating plant.

Feichtl's comic players appeared before a good audience in the opera house last night, and rendered a very pleasing andle'ngthy programme. Tliecompaiiy are above the averafre run,of troupes travelling in these parte, and'have re- the man it. has made rich. Let that man put up his head till we seethe curiosity. It is going hard with the Nelson papers. On the heels of the collapse of the Tribune comes the announcement the Crow's Nest Coal Co. want to sell the Miner. Organs don't appear to pay unions or any one else. Sandon is pestered just now with an overdose of cats who engage in fierce battles nightly and raise a "hellabelou'' loud enough to wake the dead. Judging from the howling and hissing, shooting and swearing of the past few nights, the nuisance" is likely to be abated before long,- and many a catship prowling around in the blissful ignorance that he possesses nine lives is likely to terminate his happy career with one. The Rev. Mr. Purdy returned from his long visit south on Monday, and is now again doing business at the old stand. The Rev. Mr. McColl, of New Denver, held his appointments here on'Sunday. When sending outside, for your clothing try the Wallace-Miller Co. of Nelson. They have the; largest stock of western goods at eastern prices in the country.

The Rambler's shipments this week were 105 tons. The Silver Glance shipments' for last week were 15 tons. The Surprise made the second shipment last week, amounting to 22 tons. 1 C. P. Hill has bonded the Turn Over and Run Over mines at Ymir for $50,000. The Slocan Star from appearances is going in for a big business this summer. Ninety-five-tons of ore were shipped from the Whitewater mine for the week. Duncan McPhail has sold a sixth interest in the Silver Glance to IT. O. Johnson. From 15 to 20 men are working steadily at the Idaho mine, though no sniping is being done. The Carbonatets No, 2, Spring creek, sent another shipment of ore amounting 15 tons to Nelson last week.

They appear again tonight with an entire change of programme. Many Sandonites will probably remember "Dr." Lynch who came over here from Rossland during the bonspiel to look up a location, and posing as a professional hockey player from Winnipeg was asked to referee the great San- don-Kaslo match that never came off. It now transpires the dandy little fellow is in heaps of trouble, with charges of obtaining money under false pretences, giving another person's fur coat; as security, cheque raising and other misdemeanors hanging round his head. [Mrs. May F. Fraser, wife of' Captain Fraser, of the Kokanee, died very suddenly Thursday at 4 a.m. A son was born to Mrs. Fiaser last Sunday, from which she had almost recovered, but yesterday she took a turn for the worse and succumbed this morning. Mrs. quality is found in three of the workings. The ledge at the Silversmith continues improving all the time, and is affording much encouragement to the people of the Slocan Star. It is understood the Noble Five mortgage deal will be settled up one way or the other on the 20th of May and that the mine will resume regular work on the 1st of June. Strike at the Hewett. The rich strike made on Tuesday:-'at the Hewett, near Silverton, is looked upon as one of the most important finds in the history of the dry ore belt, as the ledge has so far been proved to be rich and strong at depth. For some time- past work has been' progressing on the long tunnel in order to tap the ledge at depth. At a point 1,000 feet from tlie portal of the tunnel at a vertical depth of 800 feet the ledge was encountered, Fraser was formerly a Miss Parr, of ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ - * Vancouver. She had been a resident of | and it is snid to be 2}.< feet in width Kaslo and Nelson for several years; past: Much sympathy is felt for Captain Fraser and the littlo children who are left to mourn her Joss.ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½-Koot- enaian. The Points Competion for the Spring *jjne Sandon Ore Shipments. The followinur are the ore shipment from Sandon for the week : Cup by the Kootenay Curling Associa tion has been cancelled. Poor ice during the bonspiel caused this competition te be dropped from the programme on the understanding' that each rink should contest with one another on their own ice and send in their score reports to the secretary here. At present Sandon is the city in the association that has a sheet of curling ice, and it was considered unfair to other places to try conclusions, consequently the cup was packed up and returned to Barney Archibald, of Nelson, who won it last year by 22 points.

THE MINING REVIEWï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½Saturday, March 15, 1902. Tlie Mining Review. SATURDAY. MARCH 15, 1902. BETTER FRANCHISE. We have the courage to say what we know two-thirds of the people of the province also know, but many of them lack the courage lo say, that nothing short of property qualification for the elector will save the country, and the sooner it is secured the better for all. During the last live or six years, more especially, every representative of the Local House, and every candidate appearing for election has looked one hundred and one ways ,to secure in elections the floating voteof thceountry. In contests pledges in secret and in private have been made to that vole that have not been carried out, and legislation has been passed to secure the vote and retain it, that the fathers of if know when passing it would prove a curse to the country. That's the picture, and property qualification is the only euro. At Ottawa an alien labor law was passed at the instanceoi" the irresponsible labor vote, without duly considering the consequences ol its enforcement. When the men who passed it were brought luce to face with the consequences of its enforcement, as was the case during the Rossland strike,they shrank before il as a morning glory in the summer's sun. Ralph Smith, that great mouther for labor votes in election times, was, at least by circumstances, asked to enforce it, but lileo the sheep before its shearers he was dumb. He is looking for a seal in Launer's cabinet, and, of course, he could not say aught to jeopardise his EASY TO FIND When you find a medicine that makes your regular food taste good, when you find a medicine that strengthens a weak stomachï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½then you know you're going to put some flesh on.

The writer has no axe to grind ; he is not looking for yotes Of the American working man is gen- chances. Smith Uurtiss, the tinhorn erally well filled. In some cases it is too well filled. It contains too many premier from Rossland, was per see asked lo enforce it, but not a word of enforcement. Every man in thceountry with an ounce of sense in his head knï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½w that if it was enforced it would have proved the death knell of independence in tho country. TheirresponsibleCoeur d'Alene vote, that does not careforeither God;'man or devil, would have roamed over the country lord of the manor, and ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ tho mine manager who would not do as it might dictate would in an instant 1 ind.his mine locked up and his head in the business waste basket. If then it was known when introduced, as it certainly was, that in operation it would prove impracticable, why was it-passed? The answer is to prove a vote-catcher, and hence the consequences. By property qualification for the voter, we don't mean he should be wealthy. We simply mean some interest, in the country to constitute him aresident, a permanent situation, an intcrust in a mine or other property, a house and lot- it not worth more than if 100, the son of a permanent settler 2.1 years.of ageï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ it must mean something to"sdiow he is not a "nomad of the plain."

As a consequence many a workingman develops some form of stomach trouble which interferes with his health and reduces his working capacity. Where there is indigestion or any other indication of disease of the stom-' ach and its v allied organs of digestion aud nutrition, the use of Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery will almost invariably produce a perfect and permanent cure. Mr. Thomas A. Swarts, of Sub Station C, Columbus, O,, IJox 103, writes: "I was taken with severe headache, then cramps in the stomach, and my food would not digest, then kidney and liver trouble and my back >fot weak so I'could scarcely get around. At last I had all tlie complaints at once, the more I doctored the worse I got until six years passed. I had become so poorly I could only walk in the house by the aid ol a chair, and I got so thin I had given up lo die, thinking that I could not be cured. Then one of my neighbors.said, ' Take my advice and. take Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery and make a new man out of yourself.' The first bottle helped me so 1 thought I would get another, and after I had taken eight bottles in about six weeks, I was weighed, and found I had gained twenty-seven (27) pounds.

This paper lia-s no quarrel with labor unions of any description; they have just as good right lo exist as have organizations of capital; but the one class must keep its place as well as' the.other. When capital is paying its way and making a fail' interest for its owners, considering the nature of investment, it has no right to crowd down labor to double its profits; and for tho same reason labor, when fairly well paid by struggling industries, has no right to throttle business houses, etc. and drive a country to the "verge of ruin, as somcof the Cocurd'Alene inineis have not only tried to do but have actually with B. 0. during the last two or three years.

SATURDAY, MARCfl J5,. 1902. The Bluesneak says that Mr. Wilson mentioned that Mr. Cliffe was the party responsible for the failure to hold the "school election ou time. Als" usual the sneak is a liar; we defy him to prove Mr. Wilson said anysuch thing. He simply said Mr. Robinson sent out letters to all old secretaries asking them to call the attention of the authorities to the new law, and that Mr. Olifl'e, if hegota copy, should have handed it over to tho authorities. Mr. Cliffe explained he did not receive such a letter, and in any event there was no section of the law that left any responsibility upon him in the matter, in which Mr. Wilson fully concurred. As McAdams was not at the meeting and got his information from interested parties only, he had better call on them again, for a revision of their story. And why should Mr. Cliffe have informed the city clerk as to his duties? He gets $15 a month' more salary than the city clerks of Slocan, Phoenix, Columbia, &c, for similar duties. He has applied for the position of police magistrate and the council has endorsed his application because of his superior knowledge of the law. He is paid for all this. Then why should Mr. Clifi'e have advised him gratis, and especially -when he would not be thanked for his trouble? He has advised the councils of last and present years some of their members are sitting in direct contravention ofjthe law and liable to a penalty of more than they are worth, but it avails nothing. When the Bluesneak takes it upon itself to condone every fracture of the law committeed by the officials, be and they must bear the consequences. manufactures. A newspaper in the hands of such an educationist is like the proverbial gold ring in the snout of a guinea pig. Upon this foundation the literary Goliath gives his readers a five- column leaded leader. It is little wonder so many of them die of leaded constitutions. We call the attention of our readers to the clothing advertisement of that large Nelson House, the Wallace and Miller Co. That firm knows, if some of our local dealers who are bulldosed by a certain element do not know, that this paper is on-the right road for the country's advancement, and they are disposed to support it. This paper has always been the advocate of the highest wages indusfries.can pay after covering running expenses and reasonable interest to investors; but it knows full well ' if our industries are not given a- chance to get on their feet, there is nothing in the country for labor or anything else. There are some who can see no further than catering to the wiles of labor.no matter how extravagant they may be, for the almighty dollar it brings in immediate trade. ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ï¿½ This paper advocates the measures that bring ultimate success to all, the capitalist, the dealer and labor itself.

The intelligence of some people, who are even editors, is surprising. After reading the proceedings, as we presume he did, McAdams cannot see it is not a duty on leads raw or refined the Board of Trade is asking for, . but one on lead manufactures. Any one with an ounce of horse sense knows that lead refined bringing 4 1-8 cents to the trust will never in any form enter Canada as a competitor in our markets; but every one who takes the trouble to learn we have no manufactories of any magnitude in Canada, must understand, the manufactured article must be imported to the prejudice of our mining industries.
