Smith Curtis’ pretensions to be en-
titled to credit for settling the trou-
ble in Rossland. Mr. Curtis said
he was glad he had received no
credit, but he took half an hour to
show why he was entitled to it,
though he had received none.

In connection with labor, he took
up the government's attitude on
Eastern immigration. The bills in
question had been disallowed, *be-
