UNION MUST PAY.
Victoria Jury Assesses Big Damages
in Center Star Strike.

Victoria jury Assesses Big Damages
in Center Star Strike.
Victoria, B. c.. July ia verdict
has been rendered by the jury in the
action brought by the Center Star Min
ing Company, operating at Rossland,
to recover damages and an injunction
against the Rossland Miners Union
No. 80, We stern Federation of Miners,
and several private parties.
The jury found that the defendants,
in connection with the strike of 1901 L.,
had maliciously conspired together to
modest and injure the plaintiff and
other mine owners of Rossland, and
assessed the damages due the company
in consequence of this at $12, 800.
If the verdict stands the test of the
appeals court it is felt by trades union
lists that the right of strike being de-
claed III British Columbia is practically
forbidden. The case will be appealed,
the counsel for the defendants believ-
ing he has excellent grounds for this,
more especially in view of the fact
that the jury found that the defend
ants had not conspired together to in
duce men who had entered into con-
tracts with the plaintiffs to break such
contracts. The appeal will be taken
to the full court of the province.
Mr.. Justice Duff before whom and
a special jury the case was tried, made
a very lengthy charge to the jury, last
ing over two hours. He conceded the
right under the law of the land for
men to strike, provided it was done
lawfully. His charge was clearly
against the plaintiffs.

Body of Missing American Comes
AshOre..FOul Play Hinted.
Kingsbridge, Devonshire, July 49,
The body of F. Kent Loomis, who dis
appeared from the North German Lloyd
steamer Kaiser Wilhelm II, June 90,
as that vessel was nearing Plymouth
has been found and an inquest has
been held. Found dead, washed up
by the sea in Bigbury bay, Devon
shire was the form of the verdict.
A wound was found on the back of his
head, which evidently was the cause
of his death, and although it had been
limited that there might have been foul
play, the coroner and the jury believed
that it was not by any means certain
that the blow had been foully admin
istered. The body will be embalmed
and sent to this country.
Mr.. Loomis was brother of the as
sistant secretary of the navy.

BRITISH SHIPS SENT.
Some Go to Red Sea, While 9th.
ers Will Blockade the
DardanelIes.

London, June 1.-TWO naval orders
were issued yesterday by the British
admiralty, says the Times, which are
believed to indicate a determination on
the part of Great Britain to protect
British shipping from acts of aggres-
sian at the hands of the Russian navy.
The first order directs the Mediter-
raean fleet to sail at once from Gibral-
tar and proceed to Alexandria, Egypt,
near the mouth of the Suez canal.
The second order directs two of the
fastest British arnored cruisers to pro-
coed through the canal and take up
stations in the Red sea at points where
British ships have been held up during
the last few days by vessels of the
Russian volunteer squadron.
While the fact that these orders were
issued was carefully guraded and no
public statement of their scope is pro-
durable, there is no doubt that the
British foreign office has decided that
the time has come to act promptly in
protecting British shipping and put an
end to unwarranted aggression On the
part of the Russian cruisers.
Well informed naval officers believe
that the dispatch of this powerful
Mediterranean fleet to the vicinity of
the Red sea and the stationing of two
of the crack essels of the squadron di-
rectly at the points where the Russians
were carrying things with high hand
means that no further molestation of
vessels flying the British flag will be
permitted.
1t is also believed that the govern
ment means. to carefully investigate
the seizures already made, and if the
Russian action is without warrant an
imperative note demanding restitution
and recompense for injured owners
will be addressed to the czar's govern
ment.
Will Block Dardanelles.
Naval officers who have carefully
studied the situation declare that Rus.
STA knowingly violated her treaty obi
cations when she sent the St. Peters
burg and the Smolensk through the
Dardanelles. 1t is well-nigh certain
that England intends to take such &C.
ton as will prevent Russia sending any
more Of her war vessls through the
Dardanelles. BY the disposition now
being made of the British naval equip
ment, it is argued that the government
is placing its forces SO that it can com.
pei respect to any line of action upon
which it may finally decide.
From a secret source it can be stated
that not only is Great Britain to be
represented by strong force at the
Red sea, but plans are now being car
ried out which will bring together in
home waters an enormous fleet of YES
sells of war The home and channel
fleets are being modified at Portland
and Torquay and are being brought up
to battle strength by the addition of
ships from the reserves.
While to all intents and purposes the
nation is preparing for war, the admi-
rally has the excuse that they are get
ting the fleets ready for the practice

Does Advertising Pay?

Does it pay banks to advertize?
Five years ago some banks in
Pittsburg; Pa began to advertize
and recenctly they measured the
results by comparing their bust
ness with that of banks that did
not advertise. In the five years
the banks that sought new bust
ness through printers ink gained
38 per cent in assets and IS per
cent in deposits. The other banks
gained q per cent in assets and
II per cent in deposits. The
question whether it pays to ad-
vertise may not be entirely an
swered by such figures. but they
are calculated to provoke

There was a time when ignor-

cause farming was carried on by

Potato Pa1-ings Burned in
Stove Prevent Chimney
Fires.

Just at this time of year, when
chimney fires are of almost daily
occurrence it NAV not be amiss to
state potato parings as a sue
cessful chimney cleaner, is the
latest discovery and is vouched
for by the head Of the Milwaukee
fire departments who claim that
when the parings are burned in
the stove, the chimney is kept
free from SCOT and other condi-
tions which breed fires. The
damp weather is particularly
favorable to fires in the chimneys
and when the SCOT becomes
dampened it is more likely to
originate fire from spontaneous
combustion than in dry weather.
Burning of potato parings pre-
vents the gathering of SCOT
which is the cause of nearly all
chimney fires. Zinc is also a pre-
tentative against SCOT. The
suggestion is worthy of a trial

Parker's Unpopularity.


There were other reasons tor
Roosevelt's great majority than
the size of the total tefor pres
ident, for, surprising as it may
be, the tact remains that the vote
for presidential candidates this
year was about 675,OOO less
than in 1900, when the vote was
1861, 500. The combined vote
for two leading candidates
this year was about II, 695, 900,
of which Roosevelt received APP
promimately 7,634.O00 to
McKinley's 7,217,81O in 1900,
and Parker received 5, O61 ,0O0to
Bryan's 6,357, 1926. Roosevelt's
gain over Mckinley is but little
over 10000 while Parker's vote
is about 100000 less than
BrYan's.
In no state giving a great re-
publican plurality is tie increase
accounted for by an increased re-
publican vote. Illinois, for ex-
ample, which astonished itself
with its plurality, increased the
republican vote but $4,000 over
that of 1900, while it's democrat
ic vote is $4,000 less than was
given Bryan. Wisconsin increas-

FOR THE POOR MAN.
Northern Wisconsin Offe1 8
Him Grand Oppor-
tunities.

Did YOU ever stop to think that
no other country was more EN-
phatically the home of the poor
man than Northern Wisconsin?
asks the Marsh6eld News.
While the new settlers IN the
prairie states to the west OF us
can count on FIVE or SIX ldel
months each year, the home max
err in this section looks upon the
winter months as the time for
hir to make the money that will
be used in developing his farm.
If he wishes to clean up his own
place there is a market for all the
logs and fuel he may have tor
sale. IF he wishes to build he
can haul logs to the nearest Gus
tom mill and fora fraction of the
price the western settler has to
pay can have the finest kind OF
lumber.
While the settler in the prairie
country is paying out his hard
earned cash for fuel to keep him
self and family from freezing, the
Wisconsin settler finds his fuel
right at his door ready to be cut.
A man may be able to make a
farm sooner in the prairie coun-
try but at the end of twenty
years the Wisconsin farmer will
have better farm and more
money for he will not have spent
it all for wood and fuel during
the idle winter months. That
these facts are appreciated by
the homeseekers is shown by the
numbers that are coming this
way. There are thousands of
acres of hemlock and hard wood
timber that have not been
touched by the lunbermen and a
man who can secure a tract OF
this land if he be industrious will
not know the hard times expert
enced by the settler in other sec
tions. The soil is very produc-
tive and there is splendid mar
ket for all the farmers can raise.
In these sections especially there
are three of the best markets in
the country within easy shipping
distance and farm produce will
sell for practically city prices.
There never was a country and
there rever will be a country
that comes nearer being the place
for a poor man to locate than
this.

paradise that Frenchmen discov-
cred when they penet1 ated the

ter still flock to Wisconsin,
which, together with Minnesota,
is in effect a national game re-
serve. Wisconsin is the land OF
barley, smallgame and the dairy.
It's butter and cheese help to feed
Europe. Divided by and east and
west line, the north half of the
state has for half a century been
a reserve Of timber which even
yet, is not wholly exhausted, and
it's store of hardwood is still
large Men have said that it's
timber exhausted, Northern Wis
consin would be worthless, but
those who know Wisconsin pre-
dict that within fifty years North
ern Wisconsin will be the more
valuable half of hesitate. Where
the pine stood the farmer has
gone in. The tamarack swamps
are drained, and the dry hard
wood regions are being cleared,
steers have been turned into the
brush and the clearings, and the
dairyman has discovered in
Northern Wisconsin an unsur-
passing field for his business. It
has been pointed out to him that
the most nutritious of grasses,
the coolest of waters and the
most temperate of summer suns
for the production Of
milks that are the basis of fine
favored cheese-are the heritage
of Northern Wisconsin and the
Dean of the College of Agricul-
ture at Madison, has reminded
Wisconsin farmers that solely in

OF Pennsylvania. Wisconsin is

Most farmers could not have
been induced to send their child
rem to at agricultural school, for
that is book farming. You could
not have persuaded them to take
the best agricultural journal in
print, because it was published
by some sharp city fellow who
knew nothing about farming,
but took this means of making
a living, and filled his paper with
anything that occurred to him, re-
CARELESS Of the truth or merit of
it's contents. Unfortunately, we
have a few such farmers even to
this day. They have no ambi-
ton, no high ideas, no aim in
life, and what is more fatal to
successful career than the absence
of definite aim, for having no
special aim in life, there is di-
versity Of purpose, and conse
quently no concentrated action.
The young men of more than
ordinary ability HE'D themselves
to the city as early as possible,
to avoid drudgery on the farm,
and to seek, as they thought,
some more uplifting, elevating
occupation. Thus the farm was
robbed of it's material, and prog
ress III agriculture was slow.
Finally the states became dot
ted with experiment stations;
farm journals, bulletins and
books began to he disseminated
among the farmers, and the va
rious associations, farmers in
stitutes and fairs sprang up on
every hand. The results of ex-
periments, that had been com
pleted only bv a lifetime of CON
slant stud, and observation,
were brought before our farmers
on the printed page, and the
work Of a lifetime grasped in a
few moments.
In fact, all that was known in
agriculture was condensed and
put at the disposal of the farm
er, so that he was brought in
contract with the profoundest
minds and the most successful
farmers in the universe, and in a
short time could acquaint him
self with their methods.
We have to-day in our rank as
farmers some of the most fertile
minds i'll the world, devoted to
the progress of agriculture.
The tide of progress is just ris-.
ing. and agriculture is destined
to be an enviable occupation.
Even now it is the most impor-
tant, most elevating, most indie
pendent occupation of ALL
