President MitcheII's Orders Are Ig-

Board of Trade Advocates
Bringing in Cheap Chi
nese Labor.

| Vancouver, B. c. Practically al.
the coal mines In eastern British Co
iumbia and Alberta are closed. 1t was
rumored Friday morning that Presi-
dent Mitchell of the United Mine
Workers of America had instructed
District President Sherman to ask
the men to resume work, but Sher-
man denied this Then s. s. Lindsay,
manager of the Crows Nest Coal COM
pany, gave out a copy of dispatch
be had received from Mitchell, who
said definitely that he had ordered
Sherman to get the men back to work.
The men have quit work, but not
definitely gone on a strike, so that
they may not be prosecuted under
new dominion government law. Sher-
man and Patterson, his assistant,
both state that the men are pressing
them to issue strike order, no doubt
on account of the ambiguous position |
they occupy, thus quitting work with
out any definite arrangements. There |
is much doubt about the action of /
quitting work without calling it a
strike, secretly ordered, and all fall,
ing into line, being a strategic move
to evade violation of the clause of the
act. Sherman says he will not pay
strike allowances because he can get
around that by paying working al
lowance. 1t looks as though the oper.
ators had broken the law in posting no.
tices of reduction pending the dis
pute. The Canadian Pacific railway at
Fernie has only 100 tons of coal on
hand, and that brought in from Frank,
which worked Thursday.

An Interesting Convention.
Contributed


The 23rd Annual Custer Colnty
Sunday School convention that
assembled in the city Thursday
and Friday of last week was one
of the most spiritual aud helpful
meetings the association has ever
held, The program as carried
out did not differ much from the
published one, except having to
fill in the place where Prof. H.
M. Steidley, field secretary, of
Lincoln, had part, and because
OF his sickness this was made
necessary. But with a large
number of efficient helpers pre-
sent, and working Miss Mamie
Haines, state primary supt., over
time, the program was rendered
very satisfactorily. Yet we
missed the Prof, who has come
to be known in the various parts
of the county. The reports of
county officers as to the work for
the past year was very crafty
ing and showed progress and
advancement in the various de-
partments. The pledge made a
year ago of $50 for state work
had been very nearly raised, and
the small balance was very
quickly raised by finance COM
mittee. There have been eleven
district conventions held in the
five districts during the year.
Quite few schools have taken
up the Home and Primary or
Cradle Roll departments during
the year. Several Normal or
teacher training classes have
been blished since last con-
vention. The attendance of
delegates was the largest in the
history of the association, there
being fifty-four enrolled, besides
a large number of visitors not
delegates. The lectures of Miss
Haines each evening were largely
attended and she held the closest
attention of every one by her
