Dale Committed for Trial at Spring Assizes Out t* PrtlMurr Huriil ii Ural Skm^mj-riwattltkltm- -M-arily Cont'd lir-ktrnJifl (Special to The Dally News) Greenwood, Nov. 16.—The preliminary trial of James A. Dale, the Carmi 'murderer, closed late last night and ths accused was committed to stand trial at the spring assises which wlll be held' here probably ln May. The most Important 'evidence submitted at the hearing was that of David Smith, tbo wounded man, a full report ot which waa given in The Dally Newa of today. Smith was one of Dale's victims and waa the only man who wltness- , ed the. shooting. He was badly wounded In tho arm but has not recovered. Alex Hood waa one ot the principle witnesses and in his evidence told what he knew of ths affair. After Dale and tho two Frenchmen Qodereau and Celle. had quarrelled and had gone * with Smith to Qodereau's c-'iln, followed later by Dale, who was armed with a rifle. Hood was asked by Dale's wife to go after Dale and either bring him back or take the weapon from him, as he (Dale) had threatened to shoot the Frenchmen, and she waa sure he would carry out the threat unless forcibly prevented. Hood started for the cabin but was too late and on the Way met Smith who had sustained' a wound ' In the shoulder. Together they went to Dale's uncle's cabin. By this time Dale was on his way to the post office and on the way Bred at the cabin where Hood and Bmlth and the other men were. Hood •poke to Dale, warning him to stop nr- . Ing leet he shoot his father and uncle, James 0. Dale, • highly respected prospector. Dale replied that "he had no father any more." Dale continued llrlng at the cabin and sll the nun except Hood sought safely in flight The later remained to care for Smith, whose shoulder wu causing him much suffering. Later the witness went over to the postofflce door and again spoke to Dale, who was now en-coned In hla father's cabin, adjoining the post office. Dale replied with a shot which, happily, missed Its mark. Hood then went Into the post offlce and got a 22 rifle and lired a few shots at the window from whloh Dale had been shooting. Continuing witness said: "Dale continued shooting for a time. After he had stopped firing I called to the men and told them where Dale wu. Two; men Bubar and Laing. came over and we set a watch On the cabin, continuing i until ahout 1a.m. when Dale escaped. Musgrove, the magistrate, Frank Clark, and myself went to Peter Qodereau's . cabin and there found Joseph Celle and Godereau lying dead on V* floor." Witness gave details of the condition of the bodies, corroborating the evidence of Dalvld Smith. Dr. Spankle. who examined the bodies upon their arrival in Greenwood,' gave very complete evidence as*, to the nature .1 ot the wounds,, stating that death wu ■ due to hemorrhage caused by the bullet wounds. The doctor's testimony,closed the taking of evidence. Throughout, the trial the accused maintained au absolutely uncommunicative attitude. To all questions put by Ithe magistrate he positively refused Ian anawer, hanging his head and refus- I to even look up. When ordered .to 1 up he doggedly refused until cammed to,rise by constable Dlnsmore. a would then lean heavily on Ms chair ,ud sullenly glower at the floor or de* aently eye the court. His whole demeanor was decidedly displeasing and mded to strongly prejudice spectators mlnst him. When requested to sign i usual document he paid no heed nd paid no attention when the privilege I making a statement wu offered. His ■refusal to assent lo having heard the pvldence u given by the witnesses, ne- easltated the re-reading of the mass of Mtlmony by the magistrate—no etay rask at so late an hour. No plea or Statement wu entered by the. defence, liter the conclusion of all necessary malltles, magistrate HoHynn corn- led the accused to stand trial tor ■der at the spring asslies.

At thirl toe' coughed and huskily remarked: '1*11 never see Neiton.' I believe," continued Dlnsmore, "he ls determined to* do away with himself of he can possibly get a chance. There la nothing In hi) physical condition to prevent blm seeing Nelaon, and I'll do all In my power to get him there." "What view does he take of hla chance* for acquittal at the coming trial?" "lie does not say much," said Dins- .-more. "He Is taking a lively Interest In young Sioane's case In Spokane, and I think he will base hla hopes largely upon the fate of that young man. I think, however, that whatever an American jury may do wltb Sloane will have little effect upon a Canadian Jury's verdict upon Dale," NO. 178 ************,********„**** 0. T. JP.

Port Arthur, Ont., Nov. IS.—In a very short time the ratepayers of tbls town wlll be recetvluc a letter from the' town clerk uking them to call at his offlce to receive their share of the prollts ol the municipal epvernment tor the past quarter. Strange u it may seem the people of this town fully expect such a state of affairs to came ahout within the next ten yean. Every stranger who drop* off here Is at once made acouaint- ed with the town's method of doing business. He may not be Interested but that does not matter, he la obliged to atop and listen before making headway In any other direction. Every resident of the town carries around a copy of the lut municipal report and knows to a cent the prollts derived from the waterworks, street railway; electric light or telephone planta. Incidentally he will tell you that the rival town of Port William, four miles away, Is helping to pay Port Arthur's taxes because the atreet railway owned by Port Arthur runs through the two towns and every time a Fort William resident pays his 5 cent fare he reduces Port Arthur's taxes by an Infinitesimal mite: No one ner lands In.this town without being Informed ot this fact before he has'been here ton minutes. Every ratepayer, tells lt on every possible occasion whenever he can get anyone to listen. The Bell Telephone oompany charged tit per year (or all telephones, but under municipal ownership the price was reduced to **4 for business phones and residences were charged 112 per annum, and even at these greatly reduced prices the municipal plant tor the last year showed a net profit of $2301 after paying run** nlng ejpences and Interest on the bonds. Por the same period the electric light plant cleared a net profit of "111,000 and the street railway system cleared a similar amount The most conspicuous clt- Isen in town Is a member of the railway and electric commission. He receives no pay but the position la eagerly sought after. This commission consists of three members, one being elected each year when the third year member retires. The controlling ofllclals serving without pay uve all the salaries which would go to cat up the profit" of municipal ownership and this Is doubtless one of the principal reasons for Its success. One half of the taxes of Port Arthur are paid by the revenues derived from the waterworks, lighting plant, street railway and telephone system. The total Investment of the municipality wu flitm and last year the total Income amounted to (36,000 aad ln a very short time these enterprises wlll have paid tor themselves. .TWHIOTr MKN KIIJ.KD Dousia-, Aria., Nov, 1S-A report r*ach.d her. that 10 men' wm klll-d at neon today by an explosion In a .ten. aaatty, nine miles from tbl. city. Fall Coart Sotfilit Appeal of PlaiiUfli U tHAII-rwdUDiNtitWtrtitlMk EiHli of Blwt Flsnrc (Special to The Dally News) Vancouver, Nov. 15.—Before the full court today, composed of Irving, Martin and Morrison, J.J., the judgment of chief Justice Hunter in the celebrated mining case of the Star Mining A Milling company vs. the Byron N. White Mining oompany, wu reversed with costs, In so far as the chlet Justice refused to allow the plaintiffs to do more experimental work., The full court directs that tne further work asked for by the plaintiffs be done and the matter referred back to the chief Justice who tried the case and dismissed the plaintiffs' action with costs. The case hu been argued for Hie past four days, K. P. Davis, K.C, and 8. S. Taylor, K.C, .appearing for the appellants, the Star M. A M. Co., and B. V. Bodwell, K.C, aod R. S. I-ennte, for the defendants, the Byron N. White Oo. Mr. Bodwell concluded a lengthy argument luting three days, this afternoon, and the full court theu gave their decision u above without.,* "Uur upon M. Taylor, Mr. Davis ha>-> -oned the argument in favor of the *. ... this great legal battle between two big silver-lead Slocan mining compan- nea, with the Star M. & M. Co. headed by J. M. Harris u plaintiffs, and Ihe Byron N. White Co., .with Byron N. White of Spokane, as president and chief stockholder, u defendants, commenced live-years ago, on July SO last, the writ being Issued on July 30, 1901. The plaintiffs claimed the right to follow their lead, the apex of which they claimed |*ras upon their own ground, into adjacent territory under the old law. After a long delay the case finally came to trial here before ohlef Justice Hunter without a jury. The main trial occupied 21 days In the hearing, aud in addition the chief justice twice viewed the mine workings personally, and later, in December lut, the argument wu heard at the coast. Previous to the trial a certain amount of exploratory work wu done under the direction of the court, but the plaintiffs wanted more work done. Previous to the argument on the main case at the coast a formal application made by the plaintiffs for more exploratory work, wu refused by the chief Justice who then heard the main argument and found against the contention of the plaintiffs, dismissing the action with costs. The order based on the judgment refusing to. allow more work to be done and dismissing the action with costs wu perfected In February, whereupon the plaintiffs launched an appeal against both findings In March. There being no quorum ot the full court in May, Martin, J., being absent In England, the appeal could not then be heard, but came UP on Monday last and wu concluded yesterday with the result above given. The defendants taxed their costs of action before the local registrar hem for over 118,000. Both Parties apealed from the taxation but these appeals were ordered to stand over pending the main appeal to tbe full court just disposed of. The defendants then applied for security for costs of action and tor addition security for costs of appeal over, and above the 1200 given, but these appeals were not allowed. The defendants then appealed to the full oourt from the order refusing security for costs, but were denied by the full court lut week. Whether the defendants will now appeal against the judgment of the full court given yesterday to the lords of the privy council remains to be seen, but lt Is more than probable that this will be the next step In this famous long drawn out suit At the moment Mr, Harris ln on top and the burden of an appeal to the privy council is thrown oa Mr, White. The now work uked for by the plaintiffs and now directed to be done by the full. court ls the extension north and aouth of what Is known u the "Black Fissure," at the two points where the plaintiffs claim It cuts off tbe defendants' lead. If this work ls done, then the evidence of what Is disclosed wlll be laid before the ohlef Justice, who wlll presumably ascertain If his previously given decision Is affected or not. raNirolTTHEOAv ReV- J- C, Herdman ot Calgnry Id a guest at the Queen's.

Every train brings ln its quota of returning miners, who will be given work as soon aa possible. Preliminary work of oleanlng up Is being rushed with all speed and lt ls confidently expected by the company that a satisfactory tonnage will soon be on the cars for shipment No wire has yet been received from president Mitchell though one Is expected hourly. Tonight a meeting of Fernle local was to be held to discuss the situation, but as there has been suoh a defection from the ranks of those who have preferred to obey the order of Sherman instead of that of Burke, It is not thought that anything of Importance will result. 'Special to The Dolly News) I Michel, Nov. 16.—At an enthusiastic and well attended meeting Wednesday morning Michel Miners' union repudiated the authority of dlstrlot president Sherman. By a vote of 98 in favor of starting work at once against 41 dissenting votes, Michel union put itself on record against the one man rule of Mr. Sherman and to stand by the agreement entered into by Mr. Burke and Mr; Lindsey on Monday night Seventy seven men went to work Wednesday morning and over two hundred applied for work during the day. As soon as the different mines here can be put In working shape all the men will be put to Work aud the men that left camp at the beginning of the strike to find work elsewhere are returning. All incoming trains are loaded* for Michel as they were outgoing seven weeks ago. The local union has disbursed nearly 14000 In reliet funds during the strike, a like sum yet remaining ln the treasury. The work of the committees In charge can only be commended. Everything was handled In a strict, businesslike way. No kicks have been registered at any time. Michel union may well be proud to have amongst Its leading members suoh men as Andy McLeod, Jack Laurenson, J. L. Carter, J. Wyllc, John Gorton and others, to whose Influence Is due tne excellent condition ot the nuances and their conservative counsels have no doubt been influential In the excellent behavior of the men throughout the strike.

ROOSEVELT AT PANAMA PRESIDENT TAKES ORUISE ABOUT PANAMA BAY SOME OPINIONS NEWSPAPER -MEN Colon; Nov. 16-The president landed here half an hour earlier than waB expected and. there were no representatives of the government of Panama or'.the Cann) company present to receive him. Chief of police Shan ton, with a force of 72 picked! men belonging to tha Zone police, waa at the pier and the prealdent immediately Inspected the force and highly complimented shun ton on their appearance. Soon after this Messrs. Shont*. and Stevens, with their wives arrived, and word of the arrival of the president was sent to president Amador's party, who were at breakfast. President Amador and hla suite hurried to meet president Roosevelt and found him on the platform of hia railwuy car.

Notice of the debate was given todny by R. C. Lehman, liberal, who, In the house of commons, obtained leave to move the adjournment of the house to discuss the, "Prevalance of gross immorality ln the Chinese compounds In the Trans- vail as disclosed by the 'Bucknill' report and the Imperative necessity for the government to take Immediate steps to atop this state of affairs, especially by a more rapid and systematic repatriation of the Chinese." The government has hitherto declined to publish this report on the ground that it was confidential. Among the radicals the hope seemingly prevails that this scandal may be used In justification of the abolition of Chinese labor. . The motion that all strangers should withdraw having been rejected by 326 votes to 26, Mr. Lehman, before a crowded house, moved the adjournment. In a studiously moderate speech he declared the country was in the presence of a great moral tilt-aster and asked the "^-^j government for information on specific points and what It Intended to do In the matter. Winston Spencer Churchill replied on behalf of the government. He said it . had been decided not to publish the "Bucknill" report because It was unprintable and because the evidence upon which lt was based had been obtained confidentially. It was undoubtedly true, Mr. Churchill said, that such vices existed In many compounds, but the opponents of Chinese labor always recognized that such a state of affairs was almost Inevitable and the responsibility rested largely, in the flrst place, with Alfred Lyttleton, until lately colonial minister. It was unlikely, however, as alleged, that these practices amounted to an open public scandal or were tolerated by the police or mine managers. Theae evils had long been foreseen— then why this belated Intervention on the part of the bishops and archbishops, asked Mr. Churchill. The revelations of the "Bucknill" report, although they did not bear out the statements alleged, nevertheless disclosed a condition of affairs sufficiently unhealthy and unnatural to seal the fate of Chinese tabor. It was a matter, however, which should he left to South Africa which was on the eve of responsible government. Mr. Lyttleton then declared that no shred ot evidence of this horrible and monstrous system of vice had reached him while la the colonial office. Other members spoke on the subject and then premier- Campbell-Bannerman said the government had every reason to believe the evil would be diminished If not altogether eradicated. • The motion was eventually talked out. The subject was raised in the houae ot lords by the archbishop of Canterbury, who ashed If the government had. any Information thereon. - Lord Elgin, the colonial, secretary, said the evidence of the "Bucknill" report went to show that the practices prevail In nearly all the compounds and in his opinion strengthens the view that the permanent adoption of a system of Chinese labor was Impossible. The grosser allegations, however, were not substantiated by the report. Lord Lansdowne, foreign secretary In the late ministry, defending the late government, said the opposition would go as far as possible to assist the government In stamping out the evils. The * subject was then dropped. STANDARD OIL. STOCK DROPS New Tork, Nov. 15—Afer opening up several points, Standard Oil stock dropped three pc-inta to, 1574, a new record for several yeara.

THB PRICE OK 8ILYKR A few days ago Tbe Dally Newa pub- Usbed a telegraphic summary of an Interview with Qeorge W. Roberts, director of tbe United States mints, upon the occasion of his official visit to Denver, Colorado. He was then reported as having predicted that the price of silver would steadily and naturally advance until a high mark, possibly near M. wlll be reached. Denver papers to hand contain lengthy icports of this interview, Mr. Roberts- View being regarded with all the weight due to his position as director of tbe mints and a- close student ot the money market What he hail to say had, naturally, special reference to conditions In Colorado, but In a general way his remarks would be appllct le to the Slocan. „ Mr. Roberts expressed the opinion that tbere would be a steady price of ,G for silver and he estimated tbat this price wlll open 100 new mines tn Colorado In t y-ar. Millions ot ounces of metal In m dl.n-tttie o: a mm uototKh- ed wilt again be mined, tbe same as 15 years ago. Increase the low' standard of production of 1903, less than 20,000,000 ounces, but 28 per cent aud the Increase to Colorado In a single year means »10,000.000. ;The»e dgure* look large," director Roberta said, "aud they are large. Tbey mean everything to Ibis western country, but they are not beyond probabilities." Mr. Roberts went on to say: "Since we began buying silver for tbe United States mints, tbe llrst of August, the price has soared from 66 to 71 and bei- - ter. We paid almost 72 for our last purohase last Monday. But In these three months we have purchased a little less than 6,000,000 ounces of silver. "Five million ounces has crowded up tile market That is not a drop in the bucket India will this year break all records for silver purchasing, and will take over 100,000,000 ounces. The full effect of tbls enormous demand will not reach tbe market for another year, due to the fact that India is gaining much of ber silver from tbe old Mexico pesos, which bave been discarded and are being sold to India for bullion. The cash In this transaction Is coming back Into America for gold to place the Mexican circulation on a gold basis. "Another year and the full force of the Indian demand will be upon the market In Increased force. Then, China la taking more silver every year. It Is a matter of but A few yeara until tb? development of the Interior ot Chins wlll demand an enormous Increase in their silver coinage, which is now Using three mints. Add tb all this the enormous Increase In tbe past Ave years ln the demand for silver for use In the arts—due lo Increased prosperity—and you understand why ,1 say tbat silver Is gibing up, and going up to stay." Asked If he thought It advisable for owners of low grade properties to re sume operations this yenr, Mr. Roberta replied: "It seems very cleor to me that be; tore the year ls ended the price wlll have* advanced several points. The spring may see 76 cents offered for silver. I am Buro that there Is very much ore In this state that wlll not mine at a profit under 70 cents that will make big money at 75 cents. "Why, In the early '90s 84 or 85 cents tempted miners to work the very low grade ore. Since then the cost of mining and smelting has been reduced almost CO |,ir cent. All of thes-i nJnes will be reopened soon." These prognostications of so exper*, lenced an observer as the director of the United States mints will doubtless have their effect upon Slocau mine owners and tbe renewed activity now prevalent should be greatly stimulated. EDITORIAL NOTES. An Investigation is tn progress at Toronto inlo the cost of text books supplied to public school pupils. The sworn testimony of some of the publishers goes to show thot 50 per cent profit Is made on the production of tbese books and when the retailers' profit ls added tt is obvious that parents have to pay an excessively heavy price for them. There has been some agitation In this province looking to the government publication of text books and in vlow of the disclosures at Toronto Uie possibility of the government doing Ui|s work and supplying the books at a great* reduction under present prices appears lo be practicable. The text books sold in this province to public school children are published by the Toronto llrnis that appear to have a monopoly of tbe business In Ontario. It would be well for minister ot education Fulton to look Into this matter. In discussing proposed amendments to the Election law at the coming session of the dominion parliament, with a view to curbing corruption, the Toronto Olobe draws attention to a suggestion made by Judge Wallace, of Halifax. The Halifax Judge's point Is to secure the better enforcement of tbe law against corrupt practices and he proposes the appointment ot a prosecuting official, whose functions he thus describes: "There shoulvd be established for tb- express purpose of supervising the'enforcement of such a law a department with a special staff of officials, and, most Important of all, directed not by a government or any of Its ministers, but by a resolute and Independent chief or 'General Superintendent of Elections,' who could not be removed from office except by a two-thirds vote of the bouse ot commons, and whose energy and determination In enforcing the law would soon make him a terror to the whole chain of currouptlonlsts—not only to tbe man at tbe end of the chain who pays out the bribe money or distributes the liquor to the voter, but to the 'respectable' committee which hands It over to such men and tbe other 'respectable' committee which collects it, and also those others who may be at the beginning of the chain—the corporations, bonus-hunters, and others whose liberal contributions sometimes go beyond proper limits and should In any event be disclosed to the public." The Idea Ib a good one and we should welcome the appointment of a man like police magistrate Dennlson of Toronto, who ls con- dueling the present enquiry Into the London bribery cases, lo the offlc-.

It is almost disrespectful to the Tariff Commission and to our parliamentary representatives, to ask them to deal with a proposition full of technicalities and. bound to provoke keen criticism, and from some quarters, strenuous resistance, and to leave them without a continually available medium of communication with those whom they are trying to serve. The owners of zinc mines and thc promoters of zinc treatment schemes Bhould do this work without prompting from any one.

MOODY I88UE8 STATEMENT OF CASE PROCEEDINGS TAKEN TO DISSOLVE THE COMBINE Wash In g ton, Nov. 15—Attorney general Moody, acting today through the resident United States district attorney, Instituted proceedings against the Standard Oil company of New Jersey under the Sherman anti-trust act by filing In the United States circuit court ait St. Louis a petition In equity against It and Its *,<) constituent corporation!! and partnerships, asking that the combine be declared unlawful and In the future be enjoined from entering Into uny contract or combination In restraint of trado, etc. Tho, following statement wax prepared and mado public .by attorney general Moody: "In,June lnflt,;by direction of the president. Messrs. Kellogg and Morrison were iil-poline-l by me special assistant attorneys general to act with assistant attorney general Purdy to make un Investigation of the relations of lhe Standard Oil company of New Jersey to tbo business ot refining, transporting, distributing und selling oil throughout the United States, and lo ascertain all the facts and report to me whether or not, in thetr opinion, there has been u violation of the Sherman ante* trust law by thc Standard Oil company of New Jersey or the persons or corporations nssoclnted with or managing it. "The counsel have completed thnt duty nnd the report of their Investigations has received careful consideration by thc president and his cabinet, The information available to the department tends to show tbat the various corporations nnd limited partnerships under, their .control, In tho manner hereinafter designated, the Standard Oil company of New Jersey, produce, transport and sell about 90 por cent ot the refined oil produced In the United States for domestle use and about the same proportion of refined oil exported from the United States. Thnt this share of the business hns been produced by n course' of action whtch, beginning :n 18.U, haa continued under the direction of the same persons in the main down to lhe present time.' _. "These persons now surviving are John D. Rockefeller, Wlt.lnm -Rockefeller, Henry Rogers. Henry H. Flagler, John D. Archi- ibold,; Oliver H. Payne and Charles M. ! Pratt", "TtvU the design throughout of tho per- turns having control of -the enterprise has been ao suppress competition In tho pro-' ducil&n, transportation nnd sale, of refined oil atjd to obtain ns far at possible a monopoly therein, "Between 1870 and im the design was effected through agreements made between many persona and corporations engaged in. that business. "Tl.nt in 182 the result aimed ai WM made -more eei'lgl'n by vesting in n\b* true* tees, including five of the -»boye ntynflft presons, spfllclent stock In the as corporations concerned to enable thc trustees to control their operations In suoh a way that competition between them was suppressed. That the individual defendants lu lfct* increased the stock of the Standard Oil company of New Jersey from 10 million to 110 million dollars; that suld company was then a producing and selling corporation, and they added to its corporate powers the power of purchasing stock in other companies and practically all the powers exercised by the trustees under the unlawuft. trust agreements of 18S2. Tbat the Standard Oil company of New Jersey, taking the place of the trustees, acquired all ot the stock of lhe corporations before held, und controlled by the trustees, paying therefor by the Issue of Its own shares, in exchange. "That the president of the board of truB* tern 'became the president of the Standard Oil compnny of New Jersey, and the same persons, the individual defendants, who hnd directed thc business of the trust then assumed the direction of the business of thc Standard Oil company of New Jersey and ever since continued it. That thc pur- pot.' and effect of the use of thc Standard OU company of New Jersey, as u holding company was precisely the same as the purpose and effect of the appointment of mthc trustees, hereinbefore referred to, namely to suppress compe-titlon between Ithe corporations and limited partnerships, whose stock as held first by the -trustees and then by thc Standard Oil compnny ot New Jersey. "That the foregoing methods, obtained by the establishment of railroad rates for transportation, was discrimination in favor of the corporations whose stock was held by tho holding company. That -that company bas been enabled to obtain in large sections of the country a monopoly of the sale of refined oil, with tbe result thnt the prices to the consumer within the •territory where the monopoly prevails are very much higher than within the territory where competition to some extent still exists. "It Is believed that these Tacts, togelhor with others contained, in tht» report of the special commission. Justify and require aetlon by thc United Stales In tho courts. Accordingly a petition lu tqulty under the provisions of the Sherman act bus been filed against the Standard Oil company of New Jersey and TO other corporations and limited parincrhhlps ond the seven Individ mil defendants mimed in the right Judicial circuit at St. Louis, No., to hnve said combination adjudged and decreed to be unlawful and the said corporations be declared unlawful and the said corporation's prohibited from declaring or paying any dividends to tbe Standard OH company of New Jersey, and enjoined from enuring Into or performing any contract or combination to restrain trade and commerce or to monopolize trade In the future. "The question whether an action of a different nature should be taken is reserved for furture consideration. The controversy Is now pending in the courts and any further comment by tho department or by anyone connected with It .would be obviously improper nnd unfair. , ' _ Tutvipby YAl-HSTOfcC.

GENERAL CONCLUSIONS AS MAGNETIC SEPARATION ' Th* powlbllity ol enriching the zlno, ores ot Brltlah Columbia to a high de- tne by magnetic separation bas been thoroughly deownstrated by ibe testa oonducttd *y the commission, which have been heretofore summarized. The oree tested are or wide variety and represent all of the classes tbat thc mines of the province are at present capable of producing. In every case It has been possible to produce a tine concentrate assaying upward of 40 per cent zinc; in many cases concentrates assaying about BO per cent sine; and In a tew cases concentrates assaying as high as 57 per cent zinc. These results compare varey favorably with those whtch are attained In the concentration of similar ores In the United States. \h Australia and In Europe. The .zinc concentrates, produced from the mixed ores weet of the Rocky mountains In the Unltod Slati-a do not average better thnn Ki por cent -sino; that produced at Broken HIU, N.S.W., goes only 40 to 45 per tent zinc. The ■zlno concentrate tlmt cun be produced iu British Columbia will average belter than those figures. It is to be remarked, however, tbat a thoroughly good technical result* Ib nut necossarily a 'good commetcial result. Ore assaying only 40 per e.*>m ziuc. unless it contain also an imporlunt sber value, will not be a profitable r-icduoi In British Columbia on the basis of 5c. spelter (It is not safe to make calculations on a higher basis than that), but this is because of ttie remoteness ot the province and the long railway carriage to markets, absorbing a large part of the value of tho ore, which must inevitably be borne. This is an uuforunate condition, which can not be altered; indeed, can not be much ameliorated. This subject has been thoroughly discussed in previous sections of thiB report. Of practical importance in no way inferior to the degree of concentration is the matter of percentage of mineral extracted from tho ore. With Uie exception of a few especially difficult ores, the tests of the Commission show remarkably high percentages of extraction, these rising in ch<} case to nearly 99 per cent, and beiny upward of 90 per cent in many case**. The matter of relative efficiency of various types of -xngnetic separators will not be disc'^-od, except broadly. It was aot within tlie means of lhe commission to make exhaustive competitive trials of different makes of machine, and anyway this matter is of eampara- tlvely little importance providing the machines conform to sound principles of mechanism and magnetism. The design of these machines will bo treated to some extent further on in this report. It is a common mistake among the inexpert to look for some machine, which in itself will be the solution of all problems in ore treatment. There is no one machine which will prove such a universal panacea. Attention should be concentrated not on the machine, but on the process. Thc process being successfully devised, it will frequently be found that several different kinds of machine will do equally well the particular work that is required of them. It will be observed from Mr. Argall's report that the principal experimental work of the commission was in the determination of processes, rather thnn the competitive trial of various machines, ln so far as such trials were made, readers of this roport may draw their own conclusions. It is proper, however, to point out the brood difference between the Lwo grand types of magnetic separators, viz., the high intensity and the low intensity. The former require much more power than the latter, but they will make separations of minerals of low magnetic attractablllty, which remain unaffected by the machines of low Intensity. In order to enable the latter to operate at all, tbe ore must be cunverted by roasting into a more highly magnetic form, and the cost of roasting is more than an 'offset of their economy in power aud lower first cOBt. In the case of the blende-siderlte ores, however, roasting and separation by low intensity machines gives a higher grade of product than does raw separation by high intensity machines ,and the commercial result figures out better. Consequently, It that class ot ore were alono to be treated, the choice would by all means be for a roaster and low Intensity machines. But when it is a case of treating a variety of ores, some of which can be separated only by a high Intensity machine, the choice Is determined by different considerations. The high Intensity machine, will perform all of Iho separations of strongly magnetic material that the low Intensity machine will make, and Is capable of far more delicate adjustment and ot effecting separations between minerals of several different degrees ot magnetic permeability. A plant for the treatment of miscellaneous ores of the West Kootenay should, therefore, he provided with high intensity separators, rather than low Intensity. Means for roasting the ore are required In any case. A disappointing feature of thc experimental work at Denver waa the failure of the Blake electrostatic separator to prove of service In the treatment of the ores of British Columbia. In no case did this appear to be of useful application. In the treatment of some ores in Colorado and elsewhere, this separator has given excellent results on a commercial scale, but Its action depends upon the relative conductivity for static electricity of the component mine as of an ore, and In many cases the difference is not sufficient to enable a separation to be made. This appeared to be the case of ores of British Columbia in so far as they were tested by this process. Iu fairness it Is to lv*. rf-marked that the tests of tbe Blake St-ptualor were by no means exb'.uistive, ai-d 1* is possible that by modifications in the ore treatment satisfactory commercial results nmy be obtained with it in certain cases. In Australia, the ores ot Broken Hill were flrst successfully treated by magnetic separation. During the last two or three yeais a class ot pvoccs3c-s known as the flotation processes, has been Introduced, and these have now dearly beaten the magnetic separation processes ln the treatment of the ores of Broken Hill. So far, the flotation processes have not heen tried except at Broken Hill and comparatively little is yet known as to their theory or the precise conditions which determine their application. I caused some experimental work to bo done, on a laboratory scale, at New York, under my own direction, to determine tbe applicability of the those processes to the ores of British Columbia. I shall refer to these experiments at more length ln a subsequent section of this report. It is sufficient to state here that some of the ores of British Columbia appear to be amenable to separation by this process, but the results do not indicate any superiority over magnetic separation in point of enrichment of the grade of thc ore, while for the treatment of the miscellaneous ores of a district flotation would probably be less elastic and less efficient Cjark's Corned Beef All good meat, boneless and wasteless.

Hundreds or other Utopian Invention! appear to have created scarcely any improvement In existing conditions, white Increasing, ul a terrific rate, the burden of taxation. Aguinst this burden of rates London hus risen In arms. In a little borough like Poplar, the house holder has to pay In local taxation alone IS on every 99 ot taxable value. Add to that an Income tax of 29 cents on every 15 earned and you cun scarcely be surprised that the Londoner has revolted aguinst the party that originally tickled his fancy with delightful vistas of socialistic experiments that would make aU the poor rich. In the constituencies represented by the great labor leaders John Burns and Wlll Crooks the upheaval has been remarkable gums' recent parliamentary opponent has ■been returned by a large majority. Woolwich, <the . supposed stronghold of socialism, where the laiborltes hold 28 out of the 86 seats, now sends back only one labor councillor. Kelr Hardle and other parliamentary socialists stumped thc boroughs, but, apparently, only helped to swell the utterly unexpected majority of the moderates. Prom the provinces comes the** name tale. In the great manufacturing centers where tbe contests were generally fought on ordinary political lines, the unionists captured muny seats from the socio lists. The laborltes believe that neither these nor the London results have any political significance. That Ib to say, thc country Is still llbv.al ind supports the liberal government. Bui ihc'-.D results do go to show that t.io ureal middle class of Kngland, the rtipcetable people of small incomes, and the majority of the laboring classes, have started to fight socialism. The new division of the national parties Is due to the rise of socialism, and this Is strikingly proved by Thursday's voting. It Is e war that will keep England In an axn'o-.ie state for many years to come and will olTtct her position among the powers when the terms liberals and conservatives are.forgotten. Conservative papers and speaker-* today are glorying in their victory, but the wise political -prophet* of both parties know thnt'socialism has received only a temporary reverse, which Is severe, but not decisive. TAXES CAUSED A REVOLT I EXPLANATION OP 10NG-L1SII COUNTY .COUNCIL BLET-.TIONB i ■MUNICIPAL OWNEU8HHP ANU HO- CIAILISM BUPPQR -RttVBKSE London News-Letter, Nov. 3—Municipal ownership, socialism and all Uiat makes for what may he termed "eextremlsm" In local affairs, hnve suffered a sweeping' defeat this week, By a large majority'the people of London and the surrounding district, have turned out of office the municipal authorities who favored these advanced Ideas. London's revolt against faddists, crnnks, socialists and laborltes, is nothing hort of dramatic. Throe years ago the party known as the "progressives" swept the moderates from power,, capturing a majority of the 28 horoughs Into which Loudon in divided. Today the "reformers," ns the moderates now call themselves, control more thnn 20 boroughs, capturing what hnd been considered strongholds of socialism and labor. The scenes at the polling boohs bore eloquent testimony to the fact thnt the Lon- doher Is beginning to realise the Important part played In the national life by the municipal government. The result of alt this >wns a landslide in favor of careful admln- Istrailon tinflnclured with municipal ownership and socialist theories. The progressives,-, giving them, tbe best intentions In behalf of the poorer classes, have made a sad muddle of their three years 'spell of power.

Nor were they disappointed. The scene wns of the west nnd though pliched In Arlsona yet was of sufficient human Interest—the characters being Intensely human and not merely melodramatic heroes or villains—to hold the attention of any critical audience. There were many pretty scenes throughout ibut thc finale'wns easily the best of them ■all. It came rather unexpectedly and ended ly leaving something to the imagination In a manner which brought out the dramatic instinct of both tho author and company us perhaps nothing else could huve done. - Among the |women great talent was shown 'by Pearl Reesor aa the much tempted wife of colonel Bonhnm and also by the coming young actress, -Marie Goodrum, as Lena Kellar, whose scene when accused of the murder of the villain of the piece, was one of the best parts of a hlKbly attractive dramu.
