Smith Curtis’ campaign circular professes to be in an agony of doubt as to Governor Mackintosh’s atti- tude towards the eight-hour law. It can remove these doubts by refer- ence to the reports of the meeting on Wednesday night and, if it has which has no. connection .with any kind of industry except that of working the workingmen, which is pursued by its owners, is in desper- ate straits to prove that Gov. Mackintosh is not an advocate of labor unions nor a_ supporter of the rights of labor. It says that he only employed union printers at Ottawa in common with almost ev- ery other newspaper in Canada, and did so to forward his political ambition. The factis that Gov. Mackintosh stood by labor unions believer in unionism would have fought them. At that time union printers were barred out of every printing office in Ottawa, unions had not gained such strength as to compel the concession of their de- mands by those who_ were opposed to them, and printers were actually arrested under an obselete law which treated unions as conspira- cies. If Gov. Mackintosh had been such an insincere self-seeker as his opponents represent, he would have “| been. more api to~join his fellow- employers in fighting the union. That he stood by the union when it ‘sorely needed fiends is proof pusitive that he was in éarnest and acted from conviction, not from greed or ambition. It is said that he only presided at the reception’ to’ Mr. Powderly in his official capacity as mayor, which made it fitting that he should take the lead in entertaining. a disting- uished visitor. But who made him mayor? Who but the working- men to whom he had beena staunch friend and who had delighted to honor him .by voting him’ to the head of the city government? It was doubly fitting that he should preside at the entertainment to Mr. Powderly, for he was not only the official representative of the city but was a tried and true friend of that principle of labor unionism of which Mr. Powderly was a dis- tinguished representative. EDITORIAL NOTES. Curtis’ campaign scribe asks where Mr. Mackintosh stands on the issue of Oriental immigration. He stands ‘in favor of a standard wage, which would shut out Orien- tal labor and would not be disal- lowed at Ottawa. Martin voted against the bill to shut Chi out of coal mines by any doubts about their > it can inquire of the gentleman who putaseries of questions to Mr. Mackintosh. The governor de- clared in the hearing of an audience which filled the Miners’ Union hall that he would vote against any amendment to the eight-hour law, unless it is asked for by the miners themselves. That is plain enough for any man of common sense. Yet the campaign circular pro- ceeds to say falsely that Governor Mackintosh hesitates to give them assurances on this point and, hav- ing made this false statement, tells why itis so. It says he is the rep, resentative of capital ‘‘opposed to our interests, because he is the ally of corporations which keep steadily in view the defeat and destruction of organized labor.” In speaking of ‘our interests” the writer of this effusion assumes that the interests of the workingman and the worker ot the workingman are identical, an assumption which is by no means justified. Mr. Mackintosh and every other rational man, capitalist or workingman, recognizes that the eight-hour law is a fixed fact and that any attempt to disturb it would only renew that industrial paralysis which is happily over, with the cer- tainty of defeatin the end, Mr. Mackintosh proved to the satisfac- tion of every sensible man that he is opposed to tampering with this law. But the Martinites are trying to scare the miners with the ground- less tear that an attempt will be made to repeal or amend the law and that their only security is to vote for Mr. Curtis. They need not be scared as far aS Governor Mackintosh is concerned, for he has given pledges far more clear and emphatic than any they have obtained from Mr. Curtis. WAS A FRIEND IN NEED. The Curtis campaign _ shect, establishing’ an educational test: Mackintosh proposes to pass this bill. That is where they stand on the Chinese question. Curtis’ scribe answers one of his own fairy tales about intimidation of voters by saying ‘‘However that will not prevent him from voting right.” Ofcourse not. The em- ployers know that and therefore have no temptation to dictate to their men. There are two ‘kinds of capital, say the Martinites. True, there are. One is the kind which is not in ev:- dence when pay day comes around. For further particulars, listen to-the Humming Bird. What with the Sunset mines and Columbia townsites and other odds, and ends, Joe Martin has not done so badly in British Columbia. He will not be in any immediate danger of going to the poor-house if he is turned doWn by the sovereign peo- ple.—The Province. Hon. Joseph Martin is leading a tireless battle against Asiatics in British Columbia, but in February, 1899, he was one of three members of the legislature who voted against a resolution to increase the per cap- ita tax on those who came to our shores. Under these circumstances some labor men are not supporting atatime when any but a sincere |- other day. that to put faith in the promises of a man like Joe Martin, who never mide a political promise that was worth believing, was to prove the workingmar a was | fool. Martin had not been the friend of labor in Manitoba, where he had been in positions with power to da the poor man some good. He had made anti-election promises there, as he made them here, but he, the speaker, had yet to hear of one of them being carried out, Premier Martin and Smith Curtis are reported to be the chief owners of the Sunset mine in the Similka- meen valley, a property that would be tapped by Mr, Martin's talked- of government railway. The mine is said to be a very valuable one— so valuable that with adequate transportation facilities it would make its owners millionaires, It is a question for the pedple of British . Columbia to consider whether Mr. Martin wants the rail- toad built for the benefit of the peo- ple or for .the benéfit of himself and Smith Curtis.-The - Province. The Martinites should be a little careful about abusing company-pro- moters and wild-catters. Mr. Cur- tis might take their remarks as too pettonal. “What Mr. Martin said or ‘theught about state ownership of railways four or eleven years ago cuts no. ice,” says: the Martinite journal. No, nor will his campaign promises cut any ice if he should bé returned to power. Marti.’s*mem- ory is conveniently short and is cap- able of much shrinkage. ie Castles in Spain do not help. out British Columbia. . Railroads in Mz.

BOWES MADE: HIM’ SQUIRM He Quickly Retracts a Brazen Charge of For- gery—Mayor Goodeve Hxposes the False Pretenses of Ourtis and His Ohief and Si- lences Interruptions from the Boors. Hon. Smith Curtis very cleverly tried to dodge-a. verbal < castigation from Mayor Goodeve ‘at’ his final meeting at Miners’ Union. hall last night. The mayor has inspired Mr, Curtis with a wholesome respect for his oratorical powers \ by following the plain, blunt:man through the riding and answering ‘his every speech so effectively as toturn Mr. Curtis’ own meetings against him. The minister of .mines was. careful to avoid this at the last meeting . of the campaign. . He made ‘only’ a brief opening speech and in it he dealt only with a- few personal side s. Then-’Mr. “MacNeill and or Goodeve delivered what was -supposed..to be the reply ‘to Mr. Curtis, but was in: reality the open- ing speeches of the meeting. After this Mr. Curtis made his usual stoch speech full of misrepresentation, se- cure against a reply. Mr. Curtis’ reply to Gov. Mack- intosh's speech of the previous night was of the ‘{I’m “not and - you're another” order. He had not trav- eled on C.’P.

This brought the doctor to his feet with an indignant protest and caused much uproar/in the hall, Mr. Cur- tis squirmed out of the - ‘difficulty with the usual trickiness of the] plain, blunt man, by saying he. did not accuse the doctor of manufac- turing the telegram. He. denied having worked men 10 hours shifts on the Humming Bird, or ‘having kept the miners waiting three months for their pay, -He blamed the mayor for the swearing in ol special police by Magistrate Boult- bee and abused him for not: signing a petition in favor of the eight-hour law. Mr. MacNeill dwelt strongly on the violati of the ‘ion by Gov. McInnes in calling Mr. Mar- tin to office. He himself had draft- éd the eight-hour law and the truck act atthe request of the miners’ union and the Trades and Labor council and supported Gov. Mack- intosh because he was in sympathy with those acts, He pointed out how impracticable it was to stop and exposed Mr, Curtis as having been guilty of four distinct false- hoods. His readiness of retort was shown when in response to a shot from ‘Beamish, about his employing the job to that individual at $30 2 month, Mr. Curtis -tried to make it ap- pear that the anti-Asiatic laws were not ultra vires and talked about making disallowance an issue in the next Dominion election.” He went gasbag railroad.
