A CHEAP LABOR MAN, The Hon.: Smith Curtis was stig- matized at the meeting Thursday [ night by Mr. Bogle as a cheap Ia- bor man and reference was made to a speech of his in 1896, where he was hooted into silence by an indig- nant audience of working men. Mr. Curtis, of course, claimed that he was misrepresented by Mr. Bogle. His explanation of what he did be- lieve was listened to by Thursday night’s meeting in an awful silence. He maintained that he had argued that, it import duties on food sup- plies and so on were removed, work- ing men could afford to take fifty cents a day less wages. If this is not the ‘center and kernel of the cheap labor fallacy, what in the world is?’ Why is ‘a man's labor worth a cent less or bow can ‘he af- ford to take a cent less because he can get flour and bacon a little cheaper? His condition is to re- main stationary, is it? That is pre- cisely the process of forcing: wages to what in Mr. Curtis’ words the workingmen ‘'can afford to take,” which the organization of labor has been brought about to prevent. Mr. Curtis is a self-convicted her- etic on the most vital doctrine, the } of the ad of labor. SUPPRESSION OF NEWS. —~ It almost invariably happens, when the development of a well- known mining property turns out unfavorably, that a vigorous effort is made by those interested to sup- press the facts. Thé excuse for this course is that it will ‘hurt the camp,” ‘‘it will scare the investors,” &c., &c., but too often the real mo- tive is to give a select few an op- portunity to unload a quantity of stock on the market for more than its value before the facts leak out. ‘When the purchasers find out ‘how. - they have been victimized, they’ tell their experience to their friends, de- nounce mining compinies in general and the camp where they bought their experience in particular, ‘and men’ who ‘attempt to float. good blicity may prevent those ‘‘on the inside” — from: unloading” theirstock ata figure based on false impres- sions-of the value ‘of. the™ property, but no more sympathy is due -such men than they display towards those to whom they sell, But the publication of unfavorable news will benefit the camp; inspiring confi- dence in the management of itsir willthereduced fare be bythe Curtis- Sunset route to Copper: mountain? 2) Will shareg-in the Sunset,‘mine be, payment, as in the case inch excursion?

EDITORIAL NOTES. c dian pipe are complaining that the United States. pipe trust is shipping its goods into Canada... That is not a; circum- stance. to. the’ pipe-dream: trust, which has been. created in British Columbia by Joe Martin. and Smith Curtis. The.. Eastern .papers’: say. that Minister Borden feels hurt. because the governor-general gave the news- papers the news about the 44 com- missions in the imperial army :to be: given Canadians, instead of letting it filter out through Borden. How could Borden have'improved it? Kansas City, having overboomed herself, has a deficit, and a leading citizen offers relief by taking charge of the street cleaning department without salary. The. Salt Lake Tribune, following the same cue, offers municipal jobs without salary to a few unemployed millionaires. “Neither Lord Roberts nor his’ chief of staff is likely to be blind or deaf to the financial reasons for haste.
