Is*.���fflvery- thing is in readiness for tha- nineteenth annua! convention nl the United Mine Workers of A-merloa, which will be oai led to order in this ,'it> in-xt Tuesday morning. At this convention John Mitchell, who has piloted the organise tlon for a number Of years, will for* niiiliy relinquish the presidenoj ami the tellers will report the result of tba- re- cent referendum von- on ins Buaoessoi Though no official announosmenl Ims ba'cu made it is understood thai Vice- l'l. Bldent T. L, Lewis is to slice,,-,! Mr. Mitchell in the presidency. There are many Importanl questions thai will confront the delegates to the coming convention among the most important being mutters connected with the wage scale. The wage agreements between miners and operators in the principal fields of the United stuns and Canada will expire April I and the question of renewal is to be broughl be- fore the convention. Theli' has ail along been talk that the miners would hold oni for better terms and us the demands wane not likely to be granted by the operators it seemed thai a general strike was among the probabilities. Recently, however, the Industrial conditions bave brought about a change ol mind among the miliers and the ohan ces for a strike now appear to be re mote. The millers will probably en- d. iivor to secure some modllieutions or the present agreement in their favor, hut no radical demands are likely to be made by either side, so that an amicable agreement will probably lac reach- ad wlthoul much difficulty. The convention will frame ibe demands ut' tin- min ers and tha'se will be presented to the joint conference with the operators to be held later. The Royal Bank of Canada Incorporated A. D. 1869.

Saturday January 18, 1908. ��� THE IMPEACHMENT. J. H. Hawthotnthwaite- M. L. A., for Nanaimo- Socialist leudor in the provincial legiB.ulur*', hay introduced UltO thnt body a resolution praying the Governor* General-m-Council to investigate the conduct of Lleutanant.-Qovernor Maxnea Dunamulr, and to dismiss him. if be be found guilty of certain offences. What the Investigation is wanted for we cannot guess. We Know thai the Bowse, bill was "reserved.'" We know that this reservation would not have been, could noi have been, und was not, at the request of the provincial government. Wo have been told by Hon. Mr. Templeman thai it was not ordered bj the Dominion government, and Senator Scott, the venerable secretary ot stab * ���while admitting thai be was making anxious Inquiry on the subject, has stated definitely enough that the Uleni Governor reserved Hn bill without wai! im,' for Instructions. And then Commissioner MacKenzie King discovered, and. not knowing the relations between Mr, Dunsmuir and tlu* Liberal party in tin province, published the fact that in 11ji- private capacity as an employer of labor Mr. Dunsmuir wan contracting ior the importation of Japanese laborers All this is mailer ol" record. Whal more can be learned as the renull ol nu Investigation I1 Our eouleinporary's special despatch from the legislative press nailery, which is a Characteristic specimen of its "lair news reports," contains the following: "Hawthofath.waste's i caul nt Ion will place the premier in a tight place and while Ha wlhoruthwatie's support by rote will include only a small following, tlie opposition wltl use it n.: am monition and a lively light is anticipated." Bawthornthwatte's resolution will not place Un.. premier In u tight place., it is extremely unlikely that Premier McBride or his cabinet will make any representations to Ottawa or be party to any such. Premier McBride has no more Influence on the uppuiutinent, re tontion or dismissal of the lieutenunt- gOVemor than Mr. Hawthornthwaito. He is the appointee of Sir Wilfrid Laurier and only Sir Wilfrid can remove him. James Dunsmuir was appointed to his position for "considerations well known to every man in British Columbia. As our contemporary stated in an &ma_ihg outburst of truthfulness, "he had the money; hence the appointment." And how will the Liberal members use the Hawthornthwaito resolution as ammunition? Our contemporary's "news" correspondent is evidently a prophet as well as a political editor. If Liberals vote for the resolution they are condemning Sir Wilfrid Laurier, if they vote against it they will seem to endorse the lieutenant-governor, The premier's position is easy. He is in no way responsible for the appointment or retention of tlie Offending official. The Liberals are. It is their funeral. EDITORIAL COMMENT. Liberal members hotly resent the charm, made by A. Claude Macdonnell. M, P. for Toronto South, that the proposed free distribution of seed grain by the government to the farmers of tiie Q6W prairie provinces, was political rather than philanthropic, and his belief that il would become a means of corruption. The speech from the throne, in the Alberta legislature the other day breathed only confident optimism and satisfied prosperity. Despatches from the two new provinces have all along Indicated thai it was Alberta not Sas katchewan thai was Injured by Frost, Vet it is Saskatchewan not Alberta Dial is lo receive the charitable dole. Why? Weil, lion. F. Q. Haultaln so completely overshadows the Li Ik-tal ministers or Saskatchewan in ability and in public regard that there is always a danger of Liberal collapse. How great tbat danger Ih was shown by the bye-election in i-rinee Albert, where open, BhameleBS fraud had to be resorted to in order to save a seat for a provincial minister. The distribution of seed grain or anything else may help to r evive the "loyalty" of followers whose consciences must be becoming restless. l. -eat lot 1,1 ll,,' Mill ]��(����� nt to I I ion. um I north Wi i- smith aal oornar t.i-iii** the initial punt mi s w. oorner ol i Puner'a No. a looa .Wed J I point nf nuns. lie 'lialiiH. t tommen. r'i B k went 80 t'lmuiN. ihanoa ��� aaat ho eh-tinn to tbe it. mul ooataiuln| M0 PiiuM hi I., i 11,1 li, I Nl" t i-orm north m Hll (I 111 mih --ii Jaiu mil ht'!

The Htnry is familiar to all. of Haul oi Tarsus, keen, intellcci mil, bill a bigot, fl BealOUS leader in tlie persecution of the Christ ians, riding along the road to lianiascus, suddenly arrested by u blinding light and a voice reproving his cruelty. It cun make no difference whether the light und the voice were seen and heard by ali or hy Saul alone. The miracle Is the same. Saul of Tarsus the persecutor became the apostle, St. Paul, the boldest Spirit, the Wisest head and the clearest and most eloquent voice of ail the missionaries and preachers of the early church, and one of the greatest personal forces of all time. Christianity did uot need St. Paul, hut the illuminating stroke, whether it was a sudden revulsion or the climax ot days of douht und misgiving after his participation in the murder oi Bt, Btephe_, the change gave to the church her greatest son, who "labored more abundantly than tiny all." The gospel for toni'irrow is the story of the marriage feast in Cana, of tlie water turned to wine, one of the earliest of the miracles of Christ, not like the later miracles except as a manifestation of power. The story has, however, another significance in showing that ut the beginning of His ministrv L'h11st was no recluse hut was known in the community iu which he had passed his youth. The provision of wine for the wedding feast was uu act Of kindness evidently for friends and a recognition of wine as one of God's gilts.

Toronto, Jan. 18.���When a man tem- ponirlly leaves a seat in a railway coach, lie dues not necessarily forfeit his right to it even if Uo baggage or apparel Ib left to show his occupancy. This was the decision uf Judge Riddell in a law suit brought by Albert Hnuiau. a prospector of Vunkleek Mill. ugaijiKt. tlie C. P. K., arising out of a row in a smoker on December 8, 1906. He demanded |1,000 damageii lor heing forced out of a seat by Conductor Alexander Hanner- mau, and a party of men traveling in his company who occupied several seats . He Left for a short time. Uraz- lan entered the car at St. Eugene and took the seat under protest from the other geutlemen of the party. He refused to give it up even though there were other vacant seals, and the con- ducior by application of a little muscular energy, forced him to do so. Hraz- lan sued the railway company fur dam ages for the act of the conductor. He says the company is not compelled to furnish smoking accommodations any more than accommodation lor curling hair, playing bridge, or shaving. He confessed, however, to a "secret admiration" for the men who by making themselves disagreeable on such occasions, aid in bringing about great reforms. "In Time of War." Washington, Jun. 18.-��� Major -General W. 1>. Huvall. assistant chief of the staff of the United States army, in a specisJ requ st to congress, asked for an appropriation of $10,000,000 for the purchase of arms and equipment for an army of 2aO,OOH men. This request was strongly endorsed by Majur-General Franklin Rell, chief of the staff, and Robert Shaw Oliver, assistant secretary of war. The request provides tor an expenditure of $2.5OO,O00 a year for four years. The most remarkable thing ahout the request is that it uses the expression "such equipment to he used in time of war." President Schurman To Speak.

Weather permitting th..- annual bonspiel of the Kootenay Curling Assoda lion will open at the Nelson ourling rink next 'Tuesday morning anil keep the undivided Interest and attention ol at least 200 men for the balance of the week. Nelson's exponents of the gam< have not had very much practice but there are enough veterans to maintain the city's prestige. It is considered likely that there will be a very lar-Ke attendance of visiting curlers as Nelson is the favorite rallying point, and the game was never more popular in Kootenay than now. Hockey. The tirst hockey match of the season, between Nelson and Rossland. was played last night on the local rink and resulted in a victory for the home team by 7 goals to '���>. In the opinion of many, including the referee, it was the tastflSl and best game ever played on NVlson tee. Rossland showed unexpected strength and gave the local stars a hard tight. Tin* game promises many stubborn contests this winter, and may make those pause and consider again, who have been saying that the results of the Hritish Columbia and Western Internationa; championship matches wore a foregone conclusion. Some of tin- spectators thought tbe game unnecessarily and unpardonably rough.

Joe Thompson at cover point is an unquestioned success, but there are not a few who think that his weight, speed, staying power and judgment are even more effective on the forward line. The work of Patrick and Archie Hlshop was nearly faultless but both are handicapped on a small rink.
