BRITISH COLUMBIA.

1t is many months since ore ship
ments from Boundary mines were as
low as last week. The Greenwood
smelter closed entirely and the Gran
by smelter closed for several days
The Sunset smelter has been work
ing steadily, but is expected to blow
out tomorrow morning. The only trou
BILE with the smelters is lack of coke
a result of the Fernie coal miners
strike. The CRANKY smelter is getting
a little coke from Michael, but none
is being received by other smelters.
The shipments from different mines
for the week were: Snowshoe, LILO
tons; Sunset, $50 tons; B. c. mines,
$50 tons; Emma, 80 tons. The total
for the week is 1880 tons; total for
the year, 259,854 tons.
w. Blakemore, formerly superinten-
dent of the Coal creek mines, says that
unless the strike at the mines was set
tied Immediately, it was very doubt
full If the mine would ever reopen. The
explosion of May had severely shaken
and partially wrecked the hill, and as
nothing had been done in the way of
repairing the props, he said, the noun
tain was likely to subslide and bury
the mine so that future working would
be impossible without impracticable
expense. If such a thing should take
place the town of Fernie would be ut
terly ruined and deserted. He be-
lieved that the company recognized the
probability of such occurrence taking
place and was pressing the develop
ment of the Michael and the Morrissey
mines to take the place of the Coal
creek mines.
Paul Johnson, manager of the B. C.
company's smelter at Greenwood,
states that he has received advice
from the company's general manager,
Frederic Keffer, who left Greenwood
for Fernie last Wednesday that the
Crows Nest Pass Coal company has
resumed the shipment of coke to
Greenwood.
The resumption of development and
shipments from the CRANKY CONSOLE
dated Mining, Smelling & Power com
pany's group of mines at Phoenix,
B, G.. and the starting up of three fur
naces at the smelter at Grand Forks
has gone good way to enliven things
In the Boundary district. Just so
soon as the Crows Nest Pass Coal
company can forward sufficient sup
ply of coke there is little doubt but
that shipments from the CRANKY mines
will be resumed at the nominal out
put of 1900 tons per day.

Hoods C0rsdpdriiLG
Missionary in Vermont.

Seventy years ago, in a period of
anti.Mason darkness, Vermont twice
elected a Governor because he was
not a Mason, and, alone among the
states, gave its electoral vote to Will
liam Writ, the candidate for the anti
Masonic party for the Presidency.
Masonic lodges, including the grand
lodge, we're forced to give up their
meetings and generally to disorgan-
ize. Masons everywhere suffered
odium, ostracism and persecution.
The remarkable change in public SEN
timent and the large development of
Missionary during the past years in
Vermont evidence the inherent power
of the Masonic institution. With a
Mason for every thirty-four of it's
population or for every ten of its
citizens "of lawful age" this state
has risen from perhaps the weakest
to one of the strongest states in Ma
sonry. Masonic truth and life have
long been factors in all it's institu-
tions. Most of it's eminent men have
knelt at the altar of Masonry, and,
in requital for it's inspirations of
truth, beauty, and goodness, have
given high honors to the fraternity.
The present Governor of the stat is a
Mason Fra teTnai Record.

Riqhts of Women.

1t may be that woman will not make
good politician according to present
standards, says Rev. B. Fay Mills.
She may not vote to protect crime
and jobbery or cringe to the liqour
power or any unholy financial inter
est. But, even if she should be as
bad or incompetent as We men, say
give her a chance to be free. If there
are barriers between her and any
fl )rt for humanity, let them be real
and not formed by the superstitions,
the conceit or the selfshness of men.
1t is contempt, not reverence, that
has kept man from allowing women
to be free'-contempt and fear! We
hear that some women do not want
their freedom. AS Claiming said
about the slaves 1.-THE less they
want freedom the more they need it. :"
And it is significant fact that every
great woman of America during the
last so years has been an advocate
of economic and political enfranchise-
ment for women. 1t is time for the
100000 women teachers of America
to say to the young men they train ::

ences, which have made her timid
and cautious. Let her become mi
tiative and help TO make the new
earth wherein dwelleth justice.
Woman should be neither "a slave,
toy, a pet, nor queen" but a
human being. The remedy for the
evils of liberty is more liberty. Let
them be free to think, to act, to live,
to study, to experiment, to Exercise
Judgment, to assume responsibilities
and be held responsible.
