Whatever strategic advantages North port offers do not arise out of natural causes. Mr. Heinze decided to build his smelter at Trail instead of North- port, he incurred the displeasure of Mr. Corbin, who owned the Northport town- site and that gentleman not only with- drew all offers o! future concessions, but pushed his rates up to the highest}; notch with the result, as is well known in Trai, the smelter was operated at. a loss until the first of this year. The improvement in the transportation facilities have free! rr.

Owing to the fact that saloon keepers are naturally antagon- istic toward the objects of the league, this entire list does not include but two who were seen more for the purpose of giving the saloon men’s side of the story than anything else.

Today Mr. Graham re- h jority believe that the aime ofthe league are pernicious and uncalled for; thet to close down the mines and business houses on Sunday would be ruinous to a mining camp like Rossland. Asa business ma: says: “T gupplv a large number of outside people, who are compelled to purchase goods on Sunday, or else lose a day or two doring the week, which means injury to thier business. A prominent broker eays: “To close down on Sunday it would mean a ruinous loss to some mines, and money out of pocket to them all. Many. of our large mines run day and night and the shifts are so arranged: that the | brenkizigin upon them by closing down Sunday would seriously disarrange'well laid plans. Further than this it costs money every time the furnaces are al- lowed to cool.” Another person says: ‘‘Rossland has the name of being the most orderly mining camp in the world, and one that has liberally supported its churches, therefore, I think the league purposes are uncalled for and an insult to the order loving citizens.”” Many of the citizens were very a in saying that they believe the I would show a Christian lovin; spirit better, by devising comforts for the sick, homeless and suffering, than by trying | f to drive men out of business and them tochurch. “I heard a preacher say last Sunday,” said a mechanic who was going hungry, ‘that he was sorry to hear of peor! le suffering for food in Rossland, ‘thank the Scriptures offored consolation to those in want.’ While the league can deiend themselves outside party. Actor Brownell—Let the Sunday ob- servance nd its energies tings assisting the helpless of its own A. H.

Roesland Mercantile Co.—I belicve in one day’s rest and therefore close my store, but the mines, I think, should not be interfered with. Parker, bookkeeper—This town has ‘always con-‘dered orderly and @ good church town and gee no cause for agitating movements that are apt to di- ide the Place, in strife. Claude A. Cregan, broker—I think it is wrong to cluse the saloons or any other business in an orderly town like land. W. T. McDonald—No, sir, a thousand times no. Rossland Candy company—I_have dug down in my pocket 20 times if once to Rive money to those soliciting for tributed by bast By the money con- tribut by business men, one church was enabled to be dedicated entirely free from debt while numerous other churches have been built.
