"The Tribune was published in Nelson, in the Central Kootenay region of southeastern British Columbia, and ran from November 1892 to November 1905. The Tribune was published and edited 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. Houston had established the Miner in Nelson in 1890, and, after leaving the Miner in the summer of 1892, he established the Tribune to compete with his former paper. In August 1901, the title of the paper was changed to the Nelson Tribune."@en . ""@en . "https://open.library.ubc.ca/collections/xtribune/items/1.0188902/source.json"@en . "application/pdf"@en .

The Big Shippers of the District and the Amount\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BDFrom the Slocan and Boundary Section. Notwithstanding the difficulties which now prevail throughout this section of the country between the smelters and the silver-lead producing mines, the shipments, of ore to the Hall Mines' smelter of this city from the mines of the \"surrounding country continue to come in nearly as large quantities as they did before the trouble was started. During the past month over 3000 tons have been treated and during tlie past week the amount received at the smelter was between 700 and 800 tons./ - Among the biggest shippers of this district is the Silver Hill mine operated by \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD the London Consolidated Mining Company, situated ou Crawford bay. The shipments sent from that property during the week just passed was about 400 tons./It was only a short time ago that this property became a shipper but regular shipments have been kept up. About a.week.ago a heavy thaw damaged the road which leads to the property from the bay and the shipping was retarded considerably. A large force of men are kept continually at work on the property and the amount of ore taken out is exceedingly large. It is quite apparent from what the management say that the shipments will be larger than this iu the near- future. \ The Kootenay Mining Company, which was shipping from the Kaslo mining district, has suspended its -shipments. This is not due to any trouble that has arisen between the company and the smelter management, as might be supposed, but is due to the company's contract being filled. \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD The company is now enter- ing into another contract which ==wiil'-no=doubt=be\"a=largeone,=asithis= company enters into contracts with the various property owners along the Kaslo & Sandon railroad and then the ore is shipped in bulk. : The well-known Molly Gibson mine, situated on Kokanee creek, is shipping a fair amount of ore to the smelter. This week the shipments have only been about 75 tons, but this is only half the amount Ythat.it. generally, ships. The small shipments are due to the road being affected by a thaw about a week ago.' The temperature has now dropped considerably and the road is once more in a fair condition. As long as it continues iti this condition - the- shipments will be as large as usual. * From the Society Girl, situated near Moyie and operated by an English syndicate, represented by T. G. Procter, only one car has been received. The development of this property has1 not been carried on for any great length of time, and this accounts for the - small shipments. With the amount of work that has already been done the property has-proven, beyond a doubt that it will in the near future become a valuable high grade mine. Prom the Slocan \" district the Arlington is by far the greatest shipper. -About 100 tons have been sent in from that property during the past week,.but this amount is not all that could be readily taken from the'*workings. \"The Hartney, near -New Denver, the Hewett group, situated near Silverton, and the American Boy, which is near Cody, are-each making a shipment of about two cars a week. .The first two are as yet prospects, and the shipments are considered large for them. \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD The Queen Bess, which is an old ' \ . trates receiv \"ow -''vff'-.jj^iii. company will be able*ul A Rich and Promising Property.

Taking the improvements which have been made as a whole they are said to be the best that are in operation in the Kootenays. The mill is of the latest design, and it has beeu so thoroughly aud properly erected that it works to perfection. Since it was started it has gone off without a hitch, and the management is congratulating itself on the grand success of the new undertaking. The , tramway has been in operation some, time, and the least* that can be.said concerning it is that no fault can'be found with its working. Ore is constantly being delivered at the mill, and the tramway's- capacity is such that it could supply a mill of twice the size of the present one. x This will be of great value when the time comes for increasing the capacity of the mill. ' A large force is engaged .at the workings of the mine and large quantities of ' ore are being received. It is said that the ore is readily removed and - this will greatly aid in keeping down the. mining expenses of the company. The property is now a producer although only several months ago it was considered but a fair prospect. Just what can be done to great advantage in the shortest time possible has been shown by this company and it has been a great factor in aiding the mining interests of this country. - Work on the Bachelor. R. E. Fishburn, who is interested in the Bachelor group situated on Two-mile creek some distance north of Slocan, left yesterday on a tour of inspection to the property. .

It is in about 50 feet and =has=been~in=ore^&ll=the=^way.^Al- though the width of the vein varies, its average is about four feet. A largequantity of ore has been placed on the dump. The company operating this group is quite fortunate, as the ore, which gives good gold values, is.of such a nature that it will be accepted by the smelter.

From Various Committees Presented and Many Sug- gestion- Offered. v At the meeting of the city council last evening it was decided to retire the present four per cent debentures held- by the Bank of Montreal, aggregating $76,000, and issue $100,000* worth of five per cent debentures in order to straighten out the municipal account and thereby save interest charges. In this connection it was explained by the mayor that it had been found difficult to sell debentures bearing four per cent interest to advantage and it therefore became advisable to substitute the four per cents for debentures of five per cent. The' total of the issue fixed upon was arrived at by adding to the $76,000' worth of debentures hypothecated to the bank the present overdraft of $18,000 and the unpaid accounts aggregating $4000, making in all $98,000. - *- Another important move was the \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD'appointment of James McPhee, as' superintendent of the electric light system,' at a salary- of $125 per month.

There has been a strong outcry from manufacturers and merchants at a prolonged period of mourning. The dealers regarded the first edict with dismay, and widespread injury to the colored goods trade, in many cases actual ruin, was anticipated. Following the precedent of 1708, when the , merchants petitioned George III to curtail the period bf mourning, trade circles in the United Kingdom have already started a petition to king Edward VII' begging him to limit the period of national mourning. On previous occasions the king, as prince of Wales, used his influence in this direction and now; as king, he has asserted his well known opposition to the observance of long periods of official mourning. Practically all business will, be suspended Saturday. The stores will not open except in the poorer quarters.

This is double the length of the route originally intended and will occupy fully two1 hours. For similar reasons the route at Windsor has been extended to include High street, Park street and Long Walk before entering the castle. \"Further Disaster.

It is a protest against the employment of Chinese as cooks in certain hotels, a grievance which white cooks' will doubtless suffer -until they muster up sufficient courage to protest over their own names. . The Western Mining World has an editorial on the smelting situation in British Columbia, in the course of which it endeavors to create the impression that as a consequence of the excessive rates on .orecharged.by the Canadian Pacific railway, the smelter outlook in the province is dark; The whole article from beginning to end is a specious piece of pleading for the great American smelter trust, of which E. B. Braden is the northwestern. agent. In the first place the Butte paper, in its efforts to fasten the blame for the trust's action upon the Canadian Pacific, ignores the-fact that upon the first of January the Canadian Pacific reduced its tariffupon lead, ores one dollar per ton all round. It then- proceeds to state that the rate from Kimberley to the Great Northern transfer point oh the Kootenay Valley line is prohibitive, and out of proportion to the rate charged to the Trail smelter. When it is stated that the Canadian Pacific rate from Moyie to Great Falls and smelter, 'Montana, is $9.75, it can easily be \"determined whether or not it should be termed a prohibitive rate. The rate from Kimberley is also cited- To the same points it is $10.25 per ton, the haul-being 40 miles further, and over a spur 20 miles in length which was built by the Canadian . Pacific for the convenience of the mines using it, so that there does not 'appear|anything- in the-. nature of harsh treatment toward these two properties. has made an increase in its deduction from the price of lead contents from 70 cents to-one-dollar* per hundred pounds. This means to most of the Slocan mine-owners a cut of $3 per ton from the price they receive on the lead contents of their ore, and to all intents and purposes the smelter trust might just as well have openly increased its treatment charges upon this class of.'' ore : by $3. The Slocan mine-owners will-not-lose tlie whole of this7 however; as the reduction in the Canadian Pacific railway tariff will save them one-third of the amount, making< their net loss through, the action of the.trust $2 per ton. Now with respect to the state- ment that the smelter-trust has not \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BDmade \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD any advance in treatment charges.- It has not made any ad- j ceiving ore from the Miller Creek, vance iu treatment charges, but it j Hartney, Black Prince, Ivanhoe, This action of the smelter, trust, however, is., not wholly unwelcome, since it bids -fair to stimulate a movement which will - relieve the British Columbia mine-owners* from the squeezing process of the trust.. By every ton of ore that is diverted from the - United States - to - the British Columbia smelters the province is the gainer, and it is not too much to expect that there will be found within the Dominion sufficient''enterprise -and' sufficient capital to relieve any congestion in lead smelting which any past or future action of the smelter trust may precipitate. At- present, however, there does not appear to exist any congestion in the silver-lead districts of West Kootenay. Mr. Braden is not'purchasing auy ores, but the other United States smelters have renewed their contracts, and -the smelters at Nelson and Trail are handling no small -portion of the output. A glance at the shipping manifests for the present month bear testimony to this. Tlie smelter at Everett is drawing ore \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD from the - Rambler, Antoine, Last Chance, American Boy, Trade Dollar, Slocan Star, Ruth, Payne, Summit and North .Star. The Trail smelter is receiving regular- shipments from' the Goodenough, Prince, Enterprise, Monitor, Bosun, Payne and Sulli van. And the Nelson smelter is re '\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BDQu*_en Bess, Slocan [Sovereign, -Ar-higton, Two Friends, Hewitt,\" :Society?Girl,'MolIy Gibson and Silver Hill. These mines include nearly if not all the lead producers of the Slocan and neighboring districts, so that it cannot be -said that-the refusal of the trust to, purchase Slocan ores has crippled the raining industry to any extent, even though it has a tendency to build up Canadian smelting points' at the expense of certain American centers. Matters in the Philippines. \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD Manila, January 28. \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD Gallies' camp near San Antonio was surprised and attacked Friday by a detachment of the -15th infantry. The insurgents escaped, but a score of houses were destroyed: Detachments of the 4th infantry, and the 4th and 6th. cavalry with a plantoon of marines have captured 140 insurgents and Ladrones in Cavite province.-l Twenty wire re-' pairers were attacked . recently south of San Pablo by 300 insur-- gents, half of them armed with rifles. Two Americans were wounded and one was captured, but was subsequently rescued by reinforcements of the 49th brigade. One native was. killed, seven-- wounded .and several were captured. Valles, late chief of police of the island of Cebu, who has been in hiding since August on account of. his. activity in the insurgents' interests, has taken,his family to Hong Kong.' -The other Cebu police have been compelled to swear allegiance or* be deported. They have chosen the former. Minor insurgent, activity continues'in Cebu and Bohol. General McArthur this evening received and addressed the 11th cavalry. He highly complimented the troopers who are the only cavalry volunteers iri the army. Fatal Bailroad Collision. -Pabkersburo, West Virginia, January 28.\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BDTwo Baltimore, & Ohio fast trains-collided this afternoon near Petroleum, raboutfifteen miles east of here. Both, trains .carried :heavy crews. A relief train* was sent from Parkersburg to the scene of the wreck with relief and medicine for the injured. Both trains were-almost completely demolished by the terrific force of the collision, the cars being piled up on top of each other and .scattered along the right-of-way. The trains were freights..\" The trainmen missing are: J. D: Watson, engineer; N. Curtinery, brakeman; J. C. Bailey, brakeman; J. T.-Bailey, fireman; C. Cunningham, fireman. It seems probable that six deaths will result from the accident besides the destruction of much railroad property and damage to the roadbed. Mourning Continues Until July 24th.

From all appearances the' proposed railroad for the Lardo district, which will run from the mouth of Duncan river to Trout Lake, will be built during the coming summer. Yesterday James McDonald of D. McArthur & Co. received word from John G. Sullivan of Trail that he had been awarded the contract for the construction of the wharf at Lardo. Mr. McDonald will leave for Trail this morning where he will receive instructions \"as to' the' method to be followed in carrying out the new enterprise. . Nothing in connection with it9 construction has been done but the work will be started at once. On his return to the city he will immediately leave for Lardo to arrange the preliminary details. Tlie construction will be a slip and wharf combined and will be built at a'cost of about $12,- 000/'The\"\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD slip will contain thiee tracks-^and will'be built, on the latest model. y~. - ' - - The' location Jha'fl already--.been selected and it is_, a good one. ' The first step will be to take the soundings which will give an idea of _tbe \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BDrequired length of the piles-needed. The work , will, be^ carried on as' rapidly as possible.. Its construction will require several months. This.is'ndt\the only -work that Mr. :Macdonald>,has;'done .for the C. P..~Ba He\" built the slip at Nelson and the ,whavfs\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD:atY Robson,. Kaslo and at Duncan on the Duncan river. All of his work -has given the best of satisfaction, and there is no doubt there will -be nothing but good results from this one when it is completed. - The news of the constructing of this road will be of great interest to the mine owners of the Lardo- Duncan mining district. Throughout this district there are numer- ous mining properties,-which, with good transportation, will, rapidly increase in value. \"Many properties are now ready to ship, but will be unable to do so until the road is completed. There are a large number of prospects which will receive the attention of their owners, and the country will be greatly, improved in general. ' We are removing to our new premises, but can fill all orders 'entrusted to us during the next ten days. Canada Drug & Book Co. First Door West of C. P. F(. Offices BAKER STREET.
