REFORM STRIKES Yukon.
Days of Gamb:in- p-n- md Dance Halls
Are Over.

VANCOUVER, B. c.. Oct s.-The re-
form wave has strucN Dawson. The
days of gambling and the dance halls
in the Yukon capital are over. The
officials in the north of Canada, act
ing upon instructions from admins
tration at Ottawa, have decided that
gambling and kindred evils must be
closed down at once.
A few weeks ago publicity was given
to letter of instruction sent by Min
lister Sifton from ottawa. in which he
suggests that at once the gambling
places be closed. 1t was stated at that
time that Commissioner Ogilvie and
Mai va WOE rot act on the sug-
gestion until next June, 80 as not to
cause hardship among the people who
had money invested therein. But thts
decision was evidently reconeidered for
passengers who arrived here by the
Dolphin say that the g. nj ,lE houses
were all closed the weel; be.yra .Ist aad
dance halls have also c-.cc GaGer the
ban.
In other respects, too, Dawson has
become, as a city, a model of morality.

& Sons, coal mine owners, and premier
of the province of British Columbia, Is
the victim of peculiar strike. During
the provincial campaign last April. in
compliance with the strong anti-Mon-
golian sentiment prevailing In British
Columbia, Dunsmulr discharged all the
Chinese who had been working in his
mines on Vancouver island. and sent
to Scotland for 400 Scotch miners. Half
| of these arrived last week, and soon at
ter a considerable proportion of them
struck, and started off toward the Unit
ed States boundary line. All the ex-
penses of their transportation hither
from Scotland were borne by Dunsmuir.

quarters, and capable of seating l,OOO
people. has been secured for Fridays
convention of the United Mine Work
ers. The national headquarters VIII be
at the st. Charles hotel, a block and
half away.

Headquarters will be maintained in this
city until the strike Is over as this Is
the metropolis of the anthracite region.
The big demonstration of tomorrow
afternoon being concluded, the work OF
arranging the preliminaries of the con-
vention will be attacked. 1t is gener-
ally believed here that complete pro-
gram will be mapped out at a cenfer-
ence on Thursday and that this pro-
gram viii be followed at the convention
the following day.
The general feeling here Is that the
10 per cent offer will be accepted as 1t
stands ard that the matter of subsu-
tuting a fixed scale for sliding scale
in the lower districts will be left TO the
affected miners themselves to settle
when they come to treat with their re-
spectlve employers under the provision
of the offer guaranteeing adjustment
of any grievances the employees may
present. The matter of yearly confer
ences to fix a new scale may also be
dealt with in the same manner, each set
of employees sending a committee to
their employer and then reporting back

auspices of the United Mine Workers.
