BRITISH COLUMBIA ELECTIONS
Was One Of Surprise All Around
Liberals Won,

Victoria, B. C.-From incomplete re
turns it appears in the general provin-
cial elections, the first held on party
lines, that the Mcbride government is
probably defeated, for out of AZ mem
bers the liberals have surely elected
Is, conservatives IS, socialists 2, labor
1 and doubtful s. OF the doubtful ones
Comox and Kamloops are likely to go
conservative, so that at the best the
labor and socialist members will hold
the balance of power in the house.
The election was one of surprises
all round, as it was fully expected the
government would win solid major
ity of seats throughout the province.
Joe Martin being defeated in Vancou'
yer somewhat simplities the leadership
of the liberal party, as w. W. B. Nc
lines will now likely be the man, al
though many liberals object to him.
Later Returns.
Victoria, B. c., Oct. 7.-Late re-
turns from outside constituencies
somewhat change the figures of the
provincial elections. According to the
most accurate reports, the conserva-
tiyes have 90 seats, while the LIBERALS
have II, socialists and labor l.

Occur d'AIene District Making a
wonderfuI neutrality-suspicious. and
observation-disclosures All the Go.

Strikes and lockouts at the gold
mines in Cripple Creek and other gold
inning districts in Colorado have al
roady reduced the mineral production
of the state tnis year at least $780,
mo and if the present conditions OBJ
tain until the end Of the year the pro-
duction will fail more than 100000
below what it would have been under
normal conditions. In consequence of
tho strike, 1000 soldiers of the Colo
RADIO national guard have been doing
notice duty in cripple Creek for four
weeks, and as yet neither the mine
owners nor the strikers show any evil
dance of weakening. The cost to the
state of maintaining the military force
in the field is estimated at $4,000 a
month.
The unsettled conditions in the min
ing industry are due to the failure of
the legislature to enact an eight hour
day applying to mines, mills and
smelters after the voters of the state
had adopted constitutional amend
ment authorizing such an enactment.
An eight hour day had been generally
granted at the mines, and the Western
Federation of Miners determined to en-
force the same condition in mills and
shelters. Strikes were inaugurated
last June at the smelters in this city
and the mills in Colorado City, and
eight weeks ago 1000 miners in the
Cripple Creek district were ordered by
the executive officers Of the federation
to 90 on strike in support of the de-
mand for an eight-hour day for mill
and smelter employees, which had been
refused by the American Smelling &
Refining company and the Uniteu
States Reduction & Refining company.
The miners obeyed the order reluctant
ly, as they had no grievance as to
their own hours of labor or wages, and
with few exceptions they have con-
tinued on strike since.
The Mineowners' association has an
nounced that no further employment
will be given to any member Of the
Western Federation of Miners. The
Portland company, which owns and
operates a mill for the treatment Of
its ores, made terms with the union
and reopened its mines, giving en-
ployment to about 500 men.
The Woods Investment company
also continues to operate the Gold
Coin and other mines, shipping the ore
produced to it's own mill. but yield
ing to pressure from the Mine
owners association, this company has
= now locked all its union miners out
and Joined the associations fight
against the Western Federation of
Miners.
Several companies are operating
their mines with nonunion men, of
whom it is claimed by the M.neown-
ers association, there are now work
ing in the district 100. Officers of
the miners union assert that the num-
Der at work is much smaller, and that
most Of those employed are laborers
and not experienced miners.

It was said of her that she seemed to have the instinct of the homing pigeon in threading the painless wilderness. Her services were gratefully acknowledged by Lewis and Clark. yet no mention is made by them as to when she died and where she was laid. An association has been formed to raise funds for a memorial for this brave and intelligent Indian woman. and 1t is proposed to erect statue cost ing 5000.

 The lady never returned to that physis clan and never will do so 'If l must have my age flung in my teeth every time need a physician I'll never call ans other one," she declares.
 And indeed physicians are to blame. 4 very evident part of their mission h to brace their patients minds up and nH them with courage and eheerfulness The more they can do this the longer they will have their patients to experiment on and the more confidence the sufferer will have in the doctor.
