It seems that before Christmas last a Mrs. Woods, accompanied by her husband and son, came here from Joplin and were entertained at the Central hotel. The eld* Woods, though happening in casually of course, had no trouble iA securing work and instantly pro* ceeded to housekeeping. In the meantime Mrs. Woods sickened of an "exzoma" and was tended through her indisposition by Mrs. AlmBtrom, wife of one of the proprietors of the Central hotel, am by the wife of one of the Le Roi officials. No doctor was called and the attack, subsequently thought to be varioloid, was recovered from. The people with whom the patient, the nature of whose disease was at first unsuspected, came in contact, her husband, son, Mrs. Amstrom and the latter's friend, contracted smallpox. The son was packed down to the pest house, Mrs. Almstrom's friend was quarantined in her home, the husband in his home and Mrs. Almstrom was taken down in the dead of night to the pest house on January 2 so that none should know what had happened. But the facts crept out. Next a Central hotel man, another. Joplin man, one Howard, contracted the disease, it iB alleged at some place outside the hotel,and waB sent down to the peBt house, This on January 11. Next another employe in the mines, one .Kays, came down to the Central hotel on January 15 to seek out Dr. Reddick, where he, of course, knew he would find that health officer, and gave himself up as a smallpox patient. This on January 15. It is, however, asserted that he contracted his disease anywhere but at the Central hotel. Next follows Gub Jackson, Alm3trom's partner. He was sent down on January 18. Like Mrs. Almstrom Jackson was taken was down under cover of darknes, and a report was spread that he had left the city. Being 16 days since his partner's wife had left the hotel it seems at first blush that Mrs. AlmBtrom's case had nothing to do with the matter, despite the allegedly doubtful cases of Howard and Kays, strengthening the chain of evidence. But this plausible theory is upset by the fact that both Jackson and Almstrom were repeatedly allowed to visit the pest house between those dates and to enter into contact with the patient, Mrs. Alstrom, under circumstances that endangered infection. Within a few days of her pretended isolation her visitors were allowed to be in the same building with her and a little pressure would probably elicit the fact of their being in the same room,. Next follows, a few daya later, the seizure of another miner, one Bill' This man comes from the the Cardiff hotel, another establish- mettt running on the same lines as the Central hotel, and between tbe occupants of which places there iB naturally much Sympathy. To accentuate the matter the pest house is so conducted that it credibly stated that strangers, neither patients, doctors, nurses or attendants are allowed to be pre. • ent in the building, and therein, it il affirmed, have enjoyed its hospitality, so as to be agents there afterwards in the carrying of contagion. In connection with above Dr. Reddick says that although the facts are substantially correct the inferences are false. | Communication has taken place between patients and the outside world but only in presence of himself and under such precautions as absolutely prevent possibility of contagion. GusJJackson contracted the disease through ileeping in the same room occupied by Howard. In the opinion of Dr. Reddiok there waB never at any time and is not now any reaBon for quarantining the Central hotel pr any other hotel. THE CITY COUNCIL Several Lively Discussions Last Night.

In- ANOTHER NORTHPORT TRAGEDY How Jerry Lyons Met His Death at the Hands of Patrick Mac- alvaney in the Maze Saloon, Northport, Feb. 12.—(Special.) There was another tragedy in North- port this morning in which an employe of the lime quarry, which is being worked in connection with the smelter, was shot and killed. The facts of the case as far as known are as follows: The lime quarryman, Jerry Lyons, had an altercation in the street at a little Beyond the ordinary routine business in the course of which it was announced that the Trail, North- port and Red Mountain wagon roads were gazetted and municipal expropriation proceedings thereby precluded, there was little actually accomplished. The city financial report was laid over for a week at the motion of Alderman Embleton, that it might be carefully studied by the members of the council; tbe financial bylaw for anticipating revenue, a part of the yearly routine, was advanced a stage and the carnival was voted $150. To this latter Alderman Embleton made serious objection on the score of economy. He thought that the city would not profit by such expenditure, and the only people who would be helped at all would be the saloon element. Aid. Daniel disagreed. He thought that there was a distinct profit to the city. The carnival was the only municipal holiday; it was a good advertisement; there was a danger that the carnival now known in connection with this city,'would betaken up by some other place, aB foriiibfcauc'v, Nelson-; the expense could be made up by ; the citizenB levelling the snow in front of their places of business instead of getting the city to do it, and lastly that the omission of the I carnival would create a false im- I pression outside as to the state of this city. Aid. Embleton persisted, found no seconder, and went on record as the sole protestor. A further debate ensued over the aldermanic indemnity or salary. Aid. Embleton desired an amendment drawn which would prevent Sny indemnity being paid to a member of council who did not share in the work being carried out through absence from the city. There was an informal discussion, and the third reading of the bylaw was laid over for a week to permit the drafting of an amendment by Nelson, Feb. 12.—Ivan Arthur Edson, of the Hume hotel, has returned from a week's visit to the Lardeau country during which he visited Comaplix, Trout Lake and Ferguson.

"The labor unionstliroughout the country," says the Seattle Times, "are importuning Congress to re- enact the "Geary law"—while the corporations are urging that the law become defunct, and so Hood the labor market with thousands that would flock to the American cities from the Orient." Were meaning, but short-sighted business people who echo the cry of the corporations.largely officered by Americans, that the alleged domination of the Western Federation of Miners is an outrage upon this country, should study the above admission by a capitalistic organ. If it were not for these unions British Columbia would be at the mercy of the corporations who want cheap labor to develop the resources of the country. Of what use, it may pertinently be asked, is the development of the resources of a country if such development does not inure to the benefit of its population? Chinese cheap labor means a Chinese population, and first the white laborer, and next the farmer and the buBi- ness man will not be wanted. If this is to be an annex of the Orient, it were well to stamp out unionism, for while that is militant the capitalist, whose ideas of political economy centre round his pocket, will never be able to develop the resources of the country so Jas to divert that Pactolean stream which should irrigate the whole country into a private conduit which will merely beaulify his individual back yard. FAIRY STORIES. One story is good till the other story is told, is true only when the hearer is not already prejudiced. The London Times has lately been publishing a series of articles upon the "ca' canny" policy of trades unionism, meaning by that Scotticism a policy to restrict output. The evidence on which the story is based is shown by the Contemporary Review to be exceedingly flimsy, and the best that can be said in favor of the theory, is that it is not proven. At the same time it is strongly denied by the unions. Still for all that a jeremiad iB in course of circulation, of colossal proportions, involving the decadence of Great Britain and the downfall of the greatest Empire the world has yet seen, ancl tracing the catiBe of all this to the"ca' canny" policy. It is hard to establish a negative and logically the burden of proof lies on that side which makes the affirmative. Yet the case against the unions has broken down lamentcdly.whether considered in tbe point of detail or generality. The details are lacking.and tho generalities point the other way, for it has already been shown in these columns that wherever trades unions arc strongest that country has a greater productive power, and as a corollary a greater purchasing capacity. This may be a coincidence, but it ie a coincidence that will argue strongly for trades unionism until such time as it is clearly shown that thesetonditions do not arise from trades unionism, but rather in despite of it. Much stress has been laid upon this alleged decadence of the heart of the Empire and its supposed origin from the "ca' canny" policy by the capitalistic press of the Kootenays, and an attempt made lo jhIiow that il also existed here. The object has been double, on the one hand to consolidate the interests of exploitation in one of its last strongholds where it has strong backing from a foreign country imme'diately contiguous, and the other to conceal the waste of money by foreign and anti-union mine managers. The World has already shown how the figures are manipulated by faulty methods of break ing out rock, and here it might be added that to the figureB which are published in the B. C. Mining Record ought to be added correct, tabulations of the amount of air supplied to the machines at tbe time when the results were being taken. For if only half the power is given by the compressor it is evident that the work done by the machine, all other things being equal, oan only be half as much as that done when under full pressure Similiarly the absence of such little practical details as a regular supply of setB of sharpened steel or of the humble spanner will make a difference of hourB of work. Instead of seeking out far-fetched and romantic stories such as these accusations against the honor of the workmen, the public informed as to the details of nepotism in mine management, appointments being too often made by "black favor," and the revelations of jobbing in the purchase of costly, but useless plant, together with the swindling policy of the financial promoters, this public will doubtlessly cease to place credence in the interested stories spread by the guilty parties, and will find a verdict against the dishonest policy of the management, rather than the honest work of the employes. NOTES AND COMMENTS. Motto for the coal fight:—When thieves fall out honest men may get their due. A Liberal convention without Smith Curtis is the play of Hamlet without the Prince of Denmark. Said William Robins at his speech at the meeting of Canadian Manufacturers association. I travelled a few months ago with two American gentlemen for some distance on a train, and in taking on this matter one remarked, in a somewhat boastful tone: "The United States is beating England on her own ground" "Yes"' I replied, "but you cannot beat her on your own ground." The day Americans see they can beat England on their own ground, they will take down their tariff wall.

Columbia Ave. Telephone 145. GROCERIES A complete stock of JUST RECEIVED. The case of the alleged forcible entry into the Butte hotel brought by Lorenzo Coleman against C. E. Benn was further proceeded with this morning. Evidence was taken for the prosecution and also for the defence, the latter being that peaceable possession was accorded to the defendant. The case was adjourned until Friday next when it will probably come before the county court judge. The strike has been settled at the Le Roi mine, but it it is still in force at the other mines as before. Negotiations are being carried on with the other mining companies of the camp which have been effected by the strike but they are not yet completed. Working men in outside camps are advised to keep away from RosBland for the present, as there are more union men at the present time here than can secure employment until a settlement haB been effected with the other mining companies.
