Clode Passes Away Rather Suddenly The people of the city were greatly shocked hist .Sunday afternoon when , it' was announced between two and three o'clock that George Clode was dend. Mr. Clode had been about the hotel ns usual,' . ml n"o one supposed that anything .1 u, serious nature was troubling him,.' On Sunday morning;1 Nov. 4th, Mr. Clode, had intended to have had a cyslie tumor re oved from the back of Ins leg behind tlie knee joint, which had been causing him a great deal af nnin for, the,, lasl three months. At eleven n'cl-ock Dis. Uon- ueil and Corsaii arrived al the hotel lo perform the opei-utiou with Miss 'Knisley and Mrs. Clodei who i.s a graduate nurse, also assisting. The chloroform was given at 11 a. in.. Mr. Clode took it apparently very well. His pulse was strong and normal in every wny. His wife was holding his handsl After, about 6 or 7 minutes of administration of the cholorforni he muttered some indistinct sentences and partly raised his head up ■ nd ■. dropped back lifeless. All the slaTiclard heart stimulants, which were in readiness at the ...ie, as is customary, in giving anaesthesia were administered without avail. Artificial respcratiou was contiuued for over three hours without the least flicker of iife, aud the doctors had to reluctantly admit that the grim reaper was too many for them. Mr. Clode was- 46 years old, a native of Ontario, his former home being at Klora, where his mother now resides, and who has with her a young son cf Mr. Clode by a former wife. Mr. ;.iid Mrs. Clode were married some seven ycaps ago, and have resided in Fernie ever since. • Mr. Clode was lor a long time connected with the -'.'rites-Wood Coinpany, and since his ."-aving the linn he had been for a short lime a partner in the,firm of Ciode and Jchnson, but retiring from the firm several months ago, he became manager of the Hotel Fernie.», He was a cimrter. member of the Fcr- laundry outfit in the back seats, and everybody went home madder than 'a -wet hen.

Workers of America during the past week came to an cud yesterday afternoon. A great ileal of preliminary conversation was indulged in leading up to the final submitlim_ of propositions looking to. a •.settlement. A great mass of minutes of the discussion had accumulated. , the-- nature of .which need not be dealt with here, as it' pertains mostly to. matters that have already- been published and discussed at lcnjrth.' After, six or seven daysof this kind'of .work, Mr. i*,urke finally submitted to Mr. Lindsey a proposition, the substance of which is as fol- 1 ° ' lows: 1'first, the Company to pay to the U, MAW. of*A, monies now held by Uic Company, and paid to it as dues and fees of the union by' the men. The strike to be declared off at Michel; The Company to withdraw the lockout at Coal Creek and thc men to de-' clare the strike of! at that'place, and the mines, to be operated at once with all ■.he men that have signed the check-off agreement, as we understand it, and we submit to arbitration the interpretation of the checkoff clause for the life of thc agreement,' thc board of arbitration to consist of five; members, two. to be ".elected by -.he Company, two by the men, and they-to choose the .fifth member^ The men to go to work at once without discrimination, and the- • decision of the board of-arbitration to the true condition of affairs,/ and if shop.

Mr, Lindsey rejected this proposition and as a substiturc offered ani other,'- the substance of which is as follows: • Thc men to say they had promised that'the issue of the closed shop should not he raised; that thcy'promised that union men would not refuse to work with non-union men; that President Mitchell would never permit a strike for that purpose, and that the raising ol' the issue of the closed shop has been a mistake, Mr, Miicacll not having been properly advised as ■ to reasonable efiort is made to put things back in the position they were iu before the telegram of the 11 th of September, -so that there would , be no advantage taken by the United Mine Workers of what has lieen accomplished by ihe strike in the direction of bringing about the closed shop,- and some reasonable suggestion of reparation i.s made, then I would feel disposed to meet your proposal to pay. you-the money collected ,for the check-off which is in our hands. We would, f.el disposed to pay- you that money, you sending the men back at Michel. We would feel disposed to relieve the position at Coal Crock by allowing the men to go back, lo work who struck.

Mr. MacDonald in a letter to tho London Chronicle recently, made soma remarks about national and internal* ionarunionism which have beci splui- did material, after twisting them jp a little, for the patriots who wo.!,. save us from the American 'Federation. Mr. McaDonalil evidently docs not regret that tlm'workmen of Canada' mainly belong to ■ the international labor organizations, he plainly sec* that inlcniatianal unionism is necessary, al the present time at least. Mr.-MncDonalil .sa}-*: "The long days and nights iu the train crossing Canada, thc vast stretches of f„rcsl and wheat field which one has" to g0 through, explain 10 us this lack of labor commerce. , Nature has hitherto defied the creation of a Canadian labor movement: ou lines parallel with the political and economic interests of the Dominion. * This long, narrow, strip oi industry, stretching from Sydney 011 the Atlantic to Victoria on the Pacific, broken by hundreds of miles of forest and faun at a stretch, cannot: cohere. Willy-nilly, Canadian labor. cannot stretch its arms cast and west, only; it' is doomed to Traterhize -with the south as well. To the manufacturer, Canada'is an industrial entity; to the workmen it is nol.

"Tin's cannot be helped at present, hut it brings a dualism into the lifo of the Canadian trades uuionis-t as worker ' and citi/.cn, which will undoubtedly hamper-him in creating a, labor party for the Dominion. Many Canadian unionists, as iiiuat- fei*--4=Qi=i!atiO!ial=pntic-^—wonkl-Hike"—to sec our workmen * belonging to national rather than international organizations, which i'roin the nature of things, must be largely controlled by '.mcricans.

Mr, MaeDoiiald's comment upon the situation iu (Jue- bec is founded 011 suppositions' imt ■ entirely correct.

'The evils may Ih; common in l»'.s party, but tliey are-not, common elsewhere. When this gentleman deprecates the making of party capital out of tlle evils, what h-e means is that these -mailers should not be discussed oih.rwise than in a manner lhat is not h(;.slil_ to the rogues. This i.s had advice," It is lo be understood from this lhat there arc 110 rogues among* the Ccuserva.ives. If this be true, there can not but 'be universal astoiiislr- meiit that the Canadian public does n0t recognize • a parly o( so great purity by putting it iu power and keeping it there. People, however, who have studied politics in any country will hesitate to believe that there is one party in Canada in which no evil exists. True it i.s that in the last few- years there have lieen - some most startling revelations as to graft and lir*3l)iry by leading Liberals prominent members of the dominant•• party in the Dominion.

CAUGHt.COLD ON THE CM A. E. Mumford tells how Psychin? cored Kim after the Doctors gave .him up " It It twelve years sines'Psychine curod me of galloping consumption." Tho speaker was Mr.' A. E. Mumford, sis feet tall, and looking just what be is a husky healthy farmer. He works his own farm near M&gnctawan, Ont. I caught my cold working as a fireman on the-CP.R." he continued. "I had night sweats, chills arid fever and frequently .coughed up pieces of my lungs. I was sinking fast and- the doctors said thero was no hope for me. Two months treat, ment of Psychine put me' right on my feet and I have had no return of lung trouble •ince." If M.. Mumford had started to take Psychine when he first caught cold he would have saved himself a lot' of anxiety and suffering.' Psychine cures all lung- troubles by killing the germs—the roots of tbe disease. © L. P. ECKSTEIN J. V. MYERS-GRA*. Eckstein Sc Gray Barmsters-at-Law, Solicitors, Etc.

She slept but .very little, and would fren-ucnt- ly awake' with ,11 start and .sometimes would jump 1'ig.lil "up oil 'bed.

A. llohertson, of ■; St. l'aul. -They are her,-, with" Cliief Manager Charl.toii Dixon, and contracts arc being awarded and deals -, for thi electrical machinery closed which involve an immediate expenditure of .2,000,000. •- The name of ill. company is the Canada West Coal and Coke Co. It owns loo .'-{|unr<: miles ot coal lands in Soutli-rn Alberta already, all south and west of Lcthbridge. Part of the property was in a crude state of development when the Twin City men took hold of it, lint now tlu deal has been finished and real de- ' velopmciiL will commence in earnest. Tk. product will be, in fact is .being shipped at present as far. east as Winnipeg anil into Montana, Washington and other western states. Tt is tlw aim of the owners to eventually secure ibptter railroad rates thalAvill enable l3i.?i|*. to ship into Minnesota. Mr. Ken.istoii, was accompanied here by S. A. Harris and another banker of Minneapolis, but he says that they have uo interest in the new coinpany. "There are several Minneapolis people win* have minor in- t-. rests, but I do not know if they would care to have their names mcti- tio'_-.d," he stilled. "Wo have lteen working on this thing- (juicily for about three months, and are not i.nxious for ally publicity now. We 1 now what we have, got, and wc arc satisfied. We have 'coal enough in sight t0 iasl lhe world a ■,"'■0.1 many years, probably a half century or longer.
