[The Greenwood Weekly Times]
BC Historical Newspapers
The Boundary Creek Times was published in Greenwood, in the Kootenay Boundary region of southern British Columbia, and ran from September 1896 to March 1911. The Times was published first by the Times Publishing Company (1896-99), and then by the Boundary Creek Printing and Publishing Company (1901-1911), and its longest-serving editor was Duncan Ross (1897-1907). In April 1911, the Times was absorbed by another Greenwood-based paper, the Ledge. The Times was revived in 1983, and it continues to be published out of a small building in downtown Greenwood to this day.

In this matter the rights of the people have been substantially secured'by the efforts of a handful of liberal members who, holding the balance of power during the session of 1902, compelled an unwilling admin- upbri~the much heavier burden than they should have been called upon to bear. We would enact the legislation making'the lands included in the various dyking areas available for cultivation as q'uick- ly as possible.

ROADS.���-The present lack of system of constructing and maintaining roads and trails , is productive of a serious waste of public, and iu this connection more can be.done to open up new districts, where roads are needed, and at less cost than what has been done in the past, under the wasteful and corrupt systetn which has been so long in vogue. ���;.'���������:'. PUBLIC: HEALTH.���The Health Act should be amended sn as to meet the growing requirements of unincorporated districts in respect of sanitation aiid isolation, as to which do adequate provision is now found in the statutes. PROVINCIAL RIGHTS.���Regardless of all question of party affiliation, the rights of the province under the constitution should be jealovsly guarded. While, from the point of view of Dominion politics, we heartily support the government now in power at Ottawa, we shall at the same time insist most firmly upon the protection of our people by the'exclusion of Oriental labor, land��� we shall also insist upon the right of the province to make such provisions as it shall see fit in all contracts grants and. leases under provincial control. '���''' We shall a!lso strenuously press upon the Dominion'govern ment a readjustment of our financial relations and we claim>,the full enjoyment of all rights_giveri us by the letter and spirit of the constitution. In conclusion, we appeal to all patriotic voters in British Columbia to seize the opportunity now presented to them to ridtheprovince of that incubus which has been so disastrous to its progress, and to secure sane, progressive, and stable government by placing the liber- alb in power at Victoria. Stuart Hendrson, President. T. S. Baxter, secretary. Iflvidend Celebration, A year ago yesterday the Providence Mining Company was formed. Yesterday a dividend of upwards of three thousand dollars was paid to the holders of Providence1 stock.' In honor of<- the double event a social gathering of local stock holders was held in the Pio adilly. Mr. Mark. Madden of Chicago one of the heaviest holders of P'r.>vi- derice stock was also in attendance. Needless to add every body had a 'good time. The supper was excellent,. the speeches were instructive and the songs defied description. W. M. Law sustained the.reputation of his countrymen as after dinner story-tellers, and in this respect he now stands close to General Horace Porter, Mr.-Madden and ;Mr;=McArthur confined themselves - strictly to speechmaking, while Duncan Mcintosh Superintendent of the Providence, constituted himself vocalist of the party. His rendering of "Loch Lomond" and "Bonny Charlie" brought tears to the eyes "of the audience, and demonstrated that if he so desired he could win laurels in other fields than those of developing mines and producing dividends. Incidentally the songs brought* up a. discussion of music that if not instructive was at least original. , ,*. Mr. Madden's speech dealt with ^the possibilities of Greenwood as a high gradie camp, and expressed his surprise at the evident lack of appreciation of this fact by the local people generally it is a pity that more men were; not pressnt to hear the sentiments of a buisiness man who is after dividends, and who has proved that they are here for the going after. A jolly evening was closed with "Auld Lang Syne," and the gathering dispersed to dream of bigger dividends next year from the Gold Bug as well as the Providence. y-*-*M*^<-^><*X*-<'*^ y f Y % Y Y Y | Y Y I $ Y Y Boundary Ore Shipments, Granby Mines...., Mother.

ILABCL> FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER U 1903. APOLITICAL TRICKSTER While McBride was about it he should have passed an order-in- council declaring the election off.; That is the only way he could hope to win. McBride has established a new precedent. It is now the proper caper to trifle with election writs. Dick McBride's political reputation could not stand a long- campaign. A new precedent has been established. Weits for the provincial elections have been cancelled and a date four weeks in advance of that gazetted has been decided upon by Premier McBride. It is evident that even the responsible position of first minister of the : Crown does not restrain a political trickster from indulging in his favorite pastime. ; No brie ever accused Richard McBride of being a statesman.,* [The Conservative part)' in British Columbia tolerate him now '.because1 they have, no other 'alternative.-" By a peice' of sharp practice, by a contemptible desertion of politidal friends he ! succeeded in securing the premiership and forced himself on the Conservative party as their leader. His, latest move is .in* keepin g with his past record.- His first official act, was to mislead His Honor the Lieutenant-Governor. It is impossible for liim to rise above the level of the political trickster and the charlaton. ; . Mr. McBride may������ think that ' ih doing violence to constitution-, al precedents' he has made a clever political move but it will benefit him in no way./^,i���The;.ii.b'erals^are ready for trie battle oh October 3rd or any other date. They desired sufficient time to plainly{ and clearly, place McBride's* reconlVi' Before- '��� ^^thie** -.* - people and enlarge vupon the Liberal policy. iMx. ^McBri'de' does hot want public .discussion. Since the campaign opened neither he nor any of his ministers have made one public pronouncement "that could be construed as a political speech. It has been .a campaign of; promises that cannot be fulfilled. -, :;: Mr. McBride's action - has simply confirmed and strengthened the general view of; his character and has made more apparent the importance of relegating ihitn to .privateilife.^^If he could ^decieve^ the Lieutenant-Governor in reference to the personnel of his cabinet, if he could deceive his sup-'' porters while in opposition and if he could mislead the public in reference to the date of the elections, he cannot -be trusted in the administration of public affairs. In settling the East Kootenay Coal lands question, in dealing with the public assets of.the province and in all matters in which the interests of the province are at stake Mr. McBride will pursue the same tricky course. The people will not trust him and the Conservatives cannot trust him. The safety of the province lies in returning a strong Liberal partv pledged to a definite policy of reform. Mr. McBride simply accentuates the evils of the past. He has surrounded himself with those who are responsible for bad government in the past and instead of improving them, he is only a willing instrument in their hands. EDITORIAL NOTES.

Since the publication of the Liberal manifesto the Rossland Miner, (Conservative) says the Conservative platform as adopted at Revelstoke, is "a truckling, inconsequential trimming and a wholy inadequate pronounceme nt that, as a political manifesto, is not worthy of a 10 year old school boy."

Be Quick. Not a minute should be lost after a child shows symptoms of cholera infantum. The first unusual looseness ofthe bowels should be sufficient warning. If immediate and proper treatment is given, serious csnsequences will be averted. Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy is the sole reliance of thousands of mothers and by its aid they have often saved their children's lives.

"Rev. Mr. McKee of Inglewood, Ontario will be in Greenwood on or before October 4th to take charge of St. Col- tirhha Presbyterian church. Mr. McKee is very favourably known, to sev- -eral Greenwood people who are pleased to hear of his approaching visit. There will be no service next Sunday and possibly none until Mr. McKee arives. The Granby smelter will be running six furnaces by the end of this week. Shipments from the the mine will as a consequence be increased to somewhere near the two thousand ton mark necessitating a large increase in the number of men at the minis. The recent shipments from the Ora Denoro aiid the satisfactory results obtained, have nad the result of creating a boom in Denoro stock. Quotations on the Rossland exchange .are 15 cts. for Ora Denoro with very little changing hands even at that figure. The third annual L-abor day celebration of the Boundary, which was held this year in Phoenix was largely attended notwithstanding the unfortunate weather. Foulds Bros, of Greenwood won the drilling contest and H. A. Monroe of Phoenix won the 100 yard dash.

J. 3nodgrass, the liberal candidate for the Similkameen riding,' having found it necessary for buisness reasons to withdraw his candidature, a meeting of the liberal executive was held to consider the situation. After considerable discussion, it was decided to accept Mr. Snodgrass's resignation, and W. A. McLean of Hedley city has been unanimously chosen as the liberal standard-bearer in the forthcoming contest. The election of officers for the local union W. F. M. Saturday night, resulted in a sweeping victory for the Dougherty forces, as the figures below indicate. For president Harry Parsons led Will Mplntominy by 86 votes. For vice-president Alfred L,ind secured 87 votes to 73 for Thos.L-ightbody. For Warden, Wm. Wills was elected over M. Hayes by 73 votes, while for secretary Geo. Dougherty was re-electd over Earnest Mills of Boundary Falls by the substantial majority of 36. The result of the election will be receiveed with general satisfaction, ensuring as it does the continuance in office of an Executive that has proved itself both moderate and competent. Those Improvements Whether or not there be any truth in the rumoured amalgamation of the smelting interests of the B. C. Copper Company and the Snowshoe Company there can no longer be room for question that large improvements are being planned for the local works concerned. In fact the era of-extension and betterment has already been entered on. In many directions the work is under way for big extensions at the M.C. Copper Company's mine ami .smelter. The foundation for the new smokestack has been laid and the the chimney will grow as rapidly as the brick can be secured. The foundation which is 21 feet square is most substantial being laid in stone and cement on solid rock. The structure will be 120 feet high and will require considerably over 200,000 brick. When completed it will be connecced with the present chimney at the base. The stack will diminish in size gradually to the top where it will be 12 feet inside measure. Charles Peterson has the contract for this work. W. N. Fisher of Grand Forks has secured the contract for the excavation work for the refinery, A railway spur from the main line running in front the refinery, and which was recently surveyed will be built at once, according to the promise of the C. P. Railway officials when in town last week. The building of this spur will materially lessen the amount of hauling of matte now necessary. Ahother improvement in the matter of remoyal of the slag hot is under way. A short railway is being constructed to run from in front of the furnaces out to the dumping ground. The cars on this track which will convey the hot slag will have a capacity of about 6 tons. ' i .��� The blacksmith shop is being nearly doubled in size and other minor improvement are receiving attention. The contemplated plans involve the addition of at least two more furnaces. Mr. Williams, superintendent of construction is a very busy man these days and is hurrying things.' ...DRINK ... A LIFE ^RENEWER On sale at all the hotels.
