A 41011THLIVID b0G. -- "Cobalt" is a Prominent Citizen of the Mining Country. More than a year ago the brindle bulldog, known wherever Cobalt men fare as "Cobalt," was hurled from a cliff after he had secured the victory in a desperate struggle with a mortal enemy. He was picked up at the bot- tom crippled in his hindquarters and for more than a year he was not seen of the public gaze. ebout a month ag i he walked into the King George Hotel at South Porcupine and has resumed his old nomadic habits. In his earlier days when he was indeed a warrior bold he traveled from Hails eybury to Latchford with an Irish terrier, and the two of them had the canine world of northern Ontario in thorough subjection. "-Cobalt" would bluff them in front and the Irish ter- rier atta.oked in the rear; it was an irresistible combination. But since the buliclog lost his partner he has been as' nomadic and regtless as the Wandering aew. He is ostensibly the property of Mrs. .A. G. Shiest, the Haileybury lawyer, but he really acknowledges no mass ter for more than three days. Once, in disgust at his erratic affections, Mr. Slaght disowned him, and it was rumored abroad that he would have to take the last fatal journey in the dog cart. No sooner was it known than twenty citizens of Cobalt offers ed to pay his fee, but that was deemed too high an honor for any private itizen, and "Cobalt" is to -day. a free - an of the Silver City. He has fol. owed the trail into every mining amp in the north, boarding the T. & ,-.41.0. trains with absolute serenity and -• d"." going where he listeth. When he -reaches a town he proceeds to take up ' • pis location at the best hotel in the jelace, and from this his heedquarters lee sallies forth to take his meals at the various restaurants in town, pass- I into the kitchen if he does not e the attention he deserves from I gahtraosnas. • dignity that is not of this 1 generation and nothing can ruffle his composure.

The se- ed edifice was the property of the overnraent, having been purchased or a part of the new Departraental lock, On this amount the building • ould soon have been vacated, but the ief loss to the church was the many valuable mementoes destroyed, which had linked the present day with Ote taws of the past.

London, March 1.—The settlement of the threatened coal strike is yet far off. The Govereniertt has not yet been. able to "induce all the cpal owns ers to agree to the demand for a mini- mum wage made by the miners, but Premier Asquith declared last night that if the principle ot a minimum wage was not seoured by agreement it would, be secured by other means. Fully 800,000 miners have alreadj, laid down their tools, and will not pick thena up again until an agree- ment satisfactory to the miners' fed- eration has been reached. The men have the Government behind them and feel that victory has been won. It was officially ' announced last nieht that the conference of the Cab- inet Ministers with the miners' feder- ation would be continued te-day. Chancellor Lloyd -George is drafting a minimum wage bill, but it is stated that the Government is hopeful of being able to seeure the establishment of the minimum 'wage without re- course to legislation, now that the Welsh mine -owners see that they are powerless to resist longer. Some of the railways have sent out notifications of curtailment of their services owing to the strike. "The Government having recognized the principle of a minimum wage for all underground workers. if it is not secured by agreement, it will be se- eured by the Government by other means." This extract. from the speech made by the Prime Minister to the raerrie leers of the National Miners Federa- tion, as reported in the official state- ment issued last night Concerning the conference held yesterday, indicates the lengths to which the Government Is prepared to go to effect a illeile- raent of the. strike. It is virtually an ultimatum to the coal owners. • Emphasizing the point again; Mr. Asquith said. that the Government "were determined. that the minimum wage shall become part and parcel of the organization and working of the coal industry by whatever appropri- ate means the Government can com- mand." They would be false to their duty as stewards and trustees of the gen- eral interests of the nation, continued the Premier, if they did net take what steps they could to bring abut a resonable arrangement. The Govern- ment felt that they were face to face with a warfare between eapital and labor in the coal industry, which might paralyze all other, industries in the country. The Government had started upne their investigation of the problem, te Premier said, without any prejuslise n,f party or class bias in one diree- tors or another. Having given the fullest and most careful eonsideration te the evidence which the workmen had brought before them, ,the conclu- • sion they had unanimously come to was that a ease had been made out for ensuring to the underground work- ers in the _coal industry, with ade- quate safeguards, a reasonable mini- mum wage. Already a majority — certainly 60 per eent.—of the coal owners of the country had assented to the Govern- ment's proposals, and they did not intend that the resistance of what, he hoped, *as a dwindling minority i- bf the employers of labor, should un- duly 'delay the attainment of an ob- ject which "we have satisfied our- selves is consistent with justice and the best interests of the community." I speech with an appeal to the miners The Prime Minister concluded his to allow reasonable latitude for dis- cussion with respect to fixing the min- imum wage for the different districts, and not to insist upon rigid adherence to the schedule adopted by the miners' fedeeation. He reminded them that if they persisted in that course they assumed a terrible responsibility, al- though it was obvious that nothing short of a miracle could avert a na- tional coal strike. Coal Strike In U. S.?' New York, March. 1.—The represen- tatives of the anihracite coal -miners, who have been here foe several days formulating' their demands for higher wages, have concluded their deliber- ations for the present. They will re- turn to meet the operators at a con- ferenee in this eity on March 13. As to the chances for a atrike, the miners' leaders are non -committal. "We are not looking for a strike,” declared Mr. White before leaving New York, "but will insist on our demands." There are .700,000 coal mine workers in this country, and according to the last official returns 350,000 of thein are in the tuaion. Appeals To Borden For "Rights." Quebec, March 1.—The Action So - dale, the official organ of the Raman Catholie Church in Quebec, says that the rights of the Catholic minority of Keewatin in regard to separate sehools have been saorificed by the Ottawa Government, and in an article en- titled "The Right Does Not Die," makes a pathetio appeal to the actual 'ruler of Canada for the sake of nleada and prospeeity, to observe the rights of the Catholie Minority in Keewatin. • G.T.R.

It will come some what as a surprise to many that One, tario has to rely on the assistance of the Emerald Isle for its potato sup- ply. This is,, however, the case. Per haps the first shipment of Irish pota- toes ever received in Ontario, reached a well-known firm the. other day. The shipment 1,500 sacks and old county sacks at that of about 170 pounds. The potatoes were of excel. lent quality and were sold at $1.80 a bag, or on a parity with the Ontario product, Another shipment of a simie Te-. amount is expeeted by the same firm in s, few, deyseeThenks to Ire. land, Canada now promises to be sav- ed from a potatoe famine.- — CHECKS CHEAP CABLES Fire and Pillage Rampant Through - eke Pekin.

The legation guar. ter la crowded, but the missionaries are holding out in their own com- pounds. When the outbreak occurred it was e estimated that two thousand sOldiers took part, but since thee the muti- neers have been auginented by large numbers of police, coolies and loaf. ers. The legations know no reasons or the outbreak. The idea is express- ed that Yuan Shi Kai's soldiers be- gan the trouble when they learned that he intended to leave the capital for Nanking, The -soldiers are every- where looting -front house to house. They hane not spared even the for- eign residences within one block of the legation quarter.

Armstrong (E. Lambton). He had been in correspondence with the British poetal authorities, he said, and had ea letter hem Postmaster - General Samuels in which the latter saki he copednet seehis way clearly , to obtaining a further cut in cable • rates, nor waa he favorable to the plan of a state-owned cable. Mr. Pelle, tier said he did. not agree with the . British Postmaster -General • and had *kitten him, telling him so and asking him to co-operate in getting a further reduction in cable rates. The other 'Announcement of the P stniaster-Geaeral was that the Department Was to undertake a re- organization of the whole system of rural mail delivery. • On the motien to go 'into supply, 1. E. Armstrong 'brought up the ques- tion of government ownership of tele- phones and telegraphs. • Ile argued that the telephone and telegraph could be handled with great • economy through -the Postoffice De- partment. If the trunk line e of the telephone system were handled by the • Government, these would be a great benefit to the ernintry at large. Mr. Armstrong said that the pro- position .pf Genernraent , ownership wee along the:, lines of the Hydro - Electric Commission. There are thirty municipalities now interested. • The .eommission, brings the- wires to the municipalities, and, -in ,like manner, the trunk lines fortele-Phones could be built from city fo-eity and muni- cipality to municipality. • Mr. Armstrong pointed out that the Hydro -Electric Commission . were strongly in favor of Government-own- ed telephone and telegraph lines, as they could more readily distribute power to the fanners- by using the same poles. - Mr. Armstrong advocated that the 'cables should be owned by the Cana- dian and British Governments and quoted a nunaber of statistics to show .the feasibility and the advantages of the scheme. Wireless telegraphy, he ;believed, would , within a few years be more in general use, and it would be of great advantage to navigation in the Hudson Bay. In closing, Mr. Armstrong said that he sincerely hoped that the Govern- ment would appoint a commission to investigate the whole matter. Such figures, he -beliesfed, would be secured as- would lead the Government to de- cide irf favor of Government owner- ship. feasibility and possibility of the Gov- . Hon. Rodolphe Lemieux followed and Vent into an exhaustive review of the whole question, -including the eminent taking over and operating the cable. systems. The recent reduction in the rates was; he believed, a step in the right direction. Mr. Lemieux eraphaeized the value to the Canadian press and public which would accrue from a state owned cable and the consequent lower rates. He said that much of the news which we receive from the Mo- ther Country at the present time is more or less tainted because of coms ing through American services. This gave the question an Imperiaraspect. In closing, Mr. Lemieu.x moved that the Postmaster -General take steps to obtain a further reduction •inacable rates :between Canada, and Great Bri- tain, - W. F. Maclean (South tork) strong- ly advocated Government ownership of telegraphs, telephones and cables. • "The cable monopoly in England is to -day all-powerful, he said. "The control has now passed to the 'Amer., Jeans, who tontrol also the telegraphs and telephones on this continent. State competition is the only possible solution and $2,200,000 would, be anis fieent to establish a state-owned cable. Parcel posts were next taken up by Mr. Maclean. Propositions were bee fore Congress for the establishmexit.of a parcel post system. The only tv,ay, to handle these questions is to go ins to the business. "Let us have state coinpetition," he said, if we cannot get state ownership:" Hon. L. P. Pelletier complimented Mr. Armstrong on the way he had handled his subject: He had placed before the House and the country many valuable facts. His speech was so valuable that a commission was almost u.nneceesary,'as no commission could collect more faets. The questiba of cable rates had been engaging the attention of the Govern- ment. While he believed there should be reasonable cable rates, he thought the question of rural mail delivery was more important and this question was nodr occupying his attention,„ Tt had forraerly been • conducted in a very loose manner, but he planned to put it on a systematic basis. A speeial branch of the Postoffice Department would be created shortly, he said, to handle this feature and it was intended to have as complete a service as possible. . Cable Wes are, he thought, exces- sively high. He said he had negotiat- ed with PostmaSter-General Samuels of England, in regard to the still fur- ther reductions in the rates, but Mr. Samuels, appeared to think that fur- ther reductions were out of the ques- tion at present. Mr. Pelletier asked •Mr. Lemieux not to press his motion. It was an academie one and could do no good, while the Department Was doing all it could. , Mr. Lemieux, however, slid not ac- cede and the motion was defeated on * division of 71, to 40.
