[" Established 1897 SHERBROOKE.QUE,.MONDAY APRIL, 1 1912.UN E UEJN i WORK WAS RESUMED AT MANV OF THE COLLERIES TO-DAV Results From Various Mines Show Majority of Miners are in Favour Of Taking up Tools\u2014Cold Weather Has Set in and is Cause of Intense Suffering to Wives and Families of Unemployed\u2014 Up-To=Date Loss of Wages is Estimated at $60,000,000.to vote for London, April 1.\u2014(Special)\u2014 Although the majority of million miners who struck work on March 1 are awaiting complete returns of the ballot being taken in coal districts on question whether they should resume wor'i o: not, there is yet the weleom sign at many of the pitheads this morning of coal tubs running on colliery railways.As the votes from various mines come in the majority in favor of taking up their tools again steadily increases.Thus far of 43,000 votes counted, over d.j.OOh have declared for resumption.The end of the strike will come none too soon for the cold weather set in again yesterday, and throughout North Wales and in some of the colliery and industrial districts of Northern Counties of England ground is covered with snow.WILL CAUSE INTENSE SUFFERING.While this is unlikely to last, it will cause intense suffering to the wives and fgmilies of unemployed men who besides being short of food have exhausted every particle of available fuel.FEW FACTORIES START UP.A few factories in some districts which have been hoarding coal in cast of emergency were able to reopen their works to men this morning.Outside the ranks of miners there are more men out of work to-day than there were a week ago, and it is calculated that unemployed now number considerably over two millions in all parts of country.It is now estimated that up to date loss in wages alone since be-1 ginning of strike amounts to $G0,-000,000.LEADERS URGE THE MEN TO GO BACK AND VOTE\u2014RETURNS ARB IN FAVOR OF RETURNING.London, April 1.\u2014Returns which have come in from the scattered coal districts of Great Britain show that large majorities of the miners desire to resume work.The results thus i'ai in Monmouthshire are 5 to 1 in to recommend the men tne resumption.Although the first votes taken among tne miners of Lancashire on the question: \u201cAre you in favor of resuming work pending the settlement of the minumum rates of wages in the various grades by the district boards to be appointea under the coal mines minimum wage act?\u2019\u2019 sho that a majority of the men there are opposed to return to work until the district boards have fixed the minimum wages, there are indications throughout the rest of the country which show an increasing desire of the miners to return to the pits.I here is considerable reluctance, however, among the colliers to take any definite step until the rest of the ballot of the whole of the miners about which there seems to be little doubt is definitely known.Practically all tbs leaders of the men are advising the men that nothing will be gaineu by remaining out.This advice must have had an effect on the result of the ballot.lu the collieries where some of the men are already working there have been additions to their numbers at almost every shift, and to-day saw all the non-unionists and a good sprinkling of trade unionists back in the mines.Even then, however, these will be but a small total of the miners employed in all the coal fields and the other industries affected will not be able for some time yet to get the supplies of fuel they so badly require.There was on Saturday a further closing down of factories while the public utilities companies and municipalities are restricting the supplies of gas and electricity to their consumers.The industrial centres are facing another gloomy week although the relief committees which have been organized in every town and village throughout the country are doing their best to keep the homes of the hundreds of thousands of workers who are now without resources supplied with the barest necessaries of life.KING WILL LEAVE LONDON.London.April 1.\u2014As the crisis is now practically over, the King, who has up to the present declined to leave London, has decided to carry out his original plan to spend Easter at Sandringham with the Queen and royal family.He probably will re- Governor-General Bill Formally Wind up Session.HOUSE OF COMMONS SAT UNTIL A LATE HOUR SATURDAY.Ottawa, April 1.\u2014The first session of the twelfth Parliament of Canada will come to a close this afternoon, when the Duke of Connaught will formally prorogue the Houses.There was a brief session of both chambers in the morning to wind up a few ragged ends of business.SAT LATE SATURDAY.The House of Commons sat on Saturday until nfpr midnight and practically cleaned up the order paper.A.K.McLean gave the final kick of the Opposition, making a genera! attack on what he termed the extravagance of the Government.Hon.W.T.White made a reply to the criticism that the increase in expenditure of ten million dollars was too high.Mr.White pointed out the year before it was twenty-four millions, and the year before twenty-two.Of the expenditures, $25,000,- favor of returning to the pits.Hun- main there until April 23rd.dreds more miners went back to work The Birmingham Corporation will in Warwickshire on Saturday and it start to-day in shutting off the gas is anticipated that there will he a supply between noon and 8 o\u2019c'ock general resumption in that county in the evening, to the dismay of the to-day.At a conference of the miners shopkeepers, who are loudly protest-in Glasgow, a large majority agreed ing against this action.YOUTH SHOT Fata!

face shattered by a charge from a shotgun, and their companion, Arthur Fabre, in a dead faint, grasping the gun which lie had in his hand when it was accidentally discharged, three brothers named

shattering the inside of his head.He died at once, and Fabre dropped to the snow in a faint.The three brothers turned tail anti ran ta Arec.îr, Despite Cieve\u2019acd Settlement.LATTER must BE ratified BY FULL CONFERENCE, AND their vote of COLLIERS.Cleveland, O., April l.\u2014 Although the suspension of work called in the anthracite mines to take effect Sun day midnight, measures were under way by the United Mine Workers of America on Saturday to improve the situation caused by wage disputes.President White of the union expected to arrange a date for a meeting, probably in New York, between the anthracite miners and operators for i speedy settlement of their differences.At the same time the bituminous miners and operators hoped to complete an agreement whereby the miners would accept a slight in-uease in pay instead of their original demands.A sub committee to which had been referred an offer of a compromise by the miners was ready to report that it had accepted the proposal.The operators said they were confident of its acceptance by the full conference, which has been in session here for ten days.Put the final acceptance of the terms stiil have to be presented before the union\u2019s policy committee and by it submitted to a referendum vote of the union.Meantime a suspension beginning to-day, of both the anthracite and bituminous mines was said to be unavoidable.ANTHRACITE PEACE SOUGHT.Philadelphia, April 1,\u2014As the insult of telegrams exchanged yesterday between George F.Baer, representing the operators, and John P.White and other officials

take a vacation which probably will Iasi, omy a few weeks.Unlike strike conditions, the miners will leave pump men and others at work to protect the mines from Hood ing or other trouble due to the shut down of the plants.LOSE A MILLION A DAY.It is said the miners will lose $1,-000,000 every day they remain out, and that the suspension will cause a loss in coal production to the Cotoll try of nearly 42,000,000 tons a month.NEWS OF SCOTT Was 150 Milas From Soiitli Pole on Hie 3rd of January.KEEN DISAPPOINTMENT FELT THAT FAILURE OF BRITISH EXPEDITION DID NOT GET THERE FIRST.London, April 1 The long and im patiently awaited news of Captain Scott's Antarctic expedition has at last arrived, but will bring the keen est disappointment to the cherished hopes of all Englishmen that the British expedition might after all prove to be the first in the race for the South Pole.January 3, nearly three weeks after Amundsen hoisted the Norwegian (lag at the Pole, Scott still had 150 miles to cover before attaining the object of his desire, Since the news of Amundsen's sue cessful attempt, Englishmen have built great hopes on Captain Scott emulating, if not surpassing, the Norwegian\u2019s achievement.It was known that Scott had chosen the longer route, and as Amundsen\u2019s experience proved, the more difficult route, but, presuming that, he was favored by the same exceptional weather conditions as Amundsen, few-doubted his success.Now comes the disappointing news that Scott, is spending another win ter in the Antarctic, and there will be further weary waiting before it ran he known whether he even succeeded in reaching the Pole.According to some of Captain Scott\u2019s intimate friends here, however, no surprise need he felr at his decision to spend another winter in the South, this having been within the original scope of his intentions.They suggest that he may have learned of Amundsen's exploit, and thereupon determined to attempt a great journey across the ice barrier, returning from the side almost opposite to that from which he started his journey.If this is so, the Terra Nova prob ably received instructions to get Scott at some fixed date at » point on the barrier Opposite Graham Land, not far to the south of Cape Horn.It will be remembered that the German explorer, Lieut.Filchner, is operating from that side and in that case possibly the two parties may meet.In the absence of a fuller despatch expected from Scott the tendency here is to attribute ids failure to the employment of ponies instead of dogs.His was the lies' equipped expedi tion that ever started for South Polar regions.His final 800-mile dash for the Pole started at the beginning of October.Besides Scott himself, the party consisted of Lieutenants Evans, Johnston and Bowers, G.Gimp son, of the Indian Survey Depart ment, and ('.H.Meurs, the well known traveller.They expected to reach the Pole before Christmas.Kvi dently, however, from the slow pro (Cont)nned on

will leave here as usual by stage in the morning to Drummondville Junction, and return with ihe mail from Montreal and from Mansonville and intervening points.The mail for Montreal and Sherbrooke in C: \u2022 morning will go by express on th '.10 a.m.train for distribution a Foster Junction.In addition there will be a mail box on this train so that letters can be posted at the train as usual in

-Permit me to Bay a few words in reply to Citizen of Bedford.He uiiVo'-ates license.He says a dry town is a dead town.Now, Mr.Editor, Waterville, is a dry town and has been the past forty years and a more lively or prosperous town does not exist in the Townships.Many people came here penniless a few ear,> ago and now are the owners of luce comfortable, cosy homes.No paupers here; no applicants for help, but if the authorities discover anyone in need through illness or otherwise they are promptly provided for.The prosperous condition of the citizens is owing to their temperate and industrious habits.Can Bedford say as much with her licensed hotels ?He says hotelkeepers pay their license i,nd taxes.Where do they get the money.I can tell him.They get it out of the mouths of starving women and children.He says drunkards will be drunkards.That is true, hut we don\u2019t want to make any more.\\S hat value does a hotelkeeper give e.man for his money.He gives him Ciat which makes him a fool and very often causes him to abuse his family.He uses the motto \u201cLive and let live.\u201d The tirst part is all right.The hotelkeepers live, hut their dolts suffer.Whoever knew drunkards to build a town or make it prosperous.Bedford docs not need a licensed hotel.What they need is a good clean well managed temperance hotel.1 claim that the temperance workers are the salvation of the people of mis country.We hope they may eon-inuc to prosper in the good work.Respectfully yours, .1.McG.Waterville, Que.THE HARDY SEITLER i |T M mwS'm ¦zr ZSr~ \u2018Sl-\t\u2022\u2019¦ M-&M QEMI-RF.ADY

vital questions that confront the farmers of the Eastern Townships to-day, namely the \u201cPaint brush,\u201d or orange hawk-eye, I am pleased to l ote the agitation started to try and eradicate it, for there is one thing certain, that if there is not drastic measures adopted immediately it will ¦oon drive the farmers out.It is a wonderful multiplier and when it enters a piece of land it is the undisputed owner, for nothing else can grow for its.broad leaves smother all other plant life.I note some advocate a rotation of crops.Well, I think that would be successful when feasible, but think of the great areas that it is impossible to cultivate, rocky pastures and even in tne woods, in big timber lands.Again others advocate raising sheep.Well, one man may be able to raise sheep and his neighbor may not.So there you are again.There must be a united action, for there is little use in one man fighting the pest alone.The cause is just, but his time is lost if his neighbors don't follow- his example, for the winds will carry the seeds long distances, ft seems to me it\u2019s a government matter to assist, and I think they will do what they can.To be successful it must be compulsory, for no matter how well meaning farmers may be they- are human and \u201cTo be human is to err.\u2019\u2019 They are often neglectful of their own interests.If it was a compulsory me.tter there could be a man in each municipality to instruct and at the same time see that every man did his duty.It is in the interests of all classes\tto agitate this question, for when the farm fails all know what the result ) would be.Now I hope that all classes will take an interest in this vital question if a foreign enemy invaded our country how quickly we would try to drive him out, and this weed pest if left alone a few years will drive you and your families out without compensation.Thanking you for space I remain,\t' Yourp ever, J.M.LARGY.Ascot Corner.CANADIAN PACIFIC RAILWAY NOTES.Mr George Hodge,

construction of a bridge for *he street railway line.There has been considerable talk of the shortage of cars in the West, but i advices received from Lethbridge ; state that the C.P.R.are doing all j their power to move the crop, but ¦ ¦ t.Magrath there had been no lack j of cars.There was lots of wheat ; and it had been all shipped to ' the market.The prospects of the fall wheat were also exceedingly bright.He has great privations at first, but soon lives them down.Any examination of the settlement conditions in northern Ontario reveals two facts, says Ben Hughes, the extraordinary privations of the settlers in the first two years, due in a very large measure to the absence of roads, and the rapidity with which they make good.Tiie following examples of settlement life In northern Ontario are not drawn from hearsay, they are either gleaned from eyewitnesses or actually observed by the writer in the course of a day's tramp in a small scattered settlement tributary to the \u2019J\u2019.&.N.O., and somewhat south of this point.There are in this settlement about forty families, planted here three years ago by a private land company.Owing to the non-fulfillment of this company\u2019s pledges when it obtained the land grant, the Government is now taking up ail unoccupied lots, but after three years of extraordinary privation, many of the settlers are now Informed that they have either not been located at all or placed on some other man\u2019s farm.Inspectors have been sent through all the townships, and some way will be found out of the tangle it is hoped.All of these men and their families have now surmounted the w-orst of their difficulties, but the privations they endured at that time are almost beyond belief.One man, a widower w ho had made and lost one small fortune in southern Ontario, had an ordinary settler's pole shack built last year, when starvation faced him.There was at last no food in the house, no money to buy any, and no work close at hand.He had hunted and trap-lied a little in the old days, and he left the children in the house hungry as they were.While he was gone they begged from house to house, a little bread here and a handful of potatoes there, and so they maintained themselves until the hunter came back with his load of pelts.This year, when the Government built a road through the township, he never lost one hour in one day, and being a hard worker and a man of wonderful pluck he now has a good frame, house, land cleared tor next year\u2019s crops, and a team in the barn.Take another instance.A man and his wife and five children wqre reduced to their last penny.The man went out to cut pulpwood, but being city-born and not very strong he could not buy food with what he earned.It is not easy to realize what cutting pulpwood means with the snow to the waist and still falling, and the temperature at zero.The little wife put on a pair f old trousers, and for several days pulled at one end pf the croks-saw while the boy trimmed the logs.There was nothing else to do; they would have starved otherwise.Wherever settlers precede the roads the living conditions are such as the prospector with-nil his boasted hardihood would not-endure for a second.They live under worse conditions for years than he does for months, and they have not the excitement of the chase.It is a fact that a very large percentage of the settlers are middle-aged, with large families.NUTEH FROM THE LABOR WORLD The Bakers' and Confectioners\u2019 Union has established a co operative bakery in Minneapolis.Practically all wage-earners at Barre, Vermont, with the exception of the city employes are members of some union.The salmon fishers of Perth, Scotland, demand a raise in wages, which have for thirty years been $4.80 per week of 66 hours.Plumbers at Fort Worth, Tex., have gained an advance of 50 cents a day for this year and will have another 50 cents a day increase for the next two years, signing every shop in the city.The Wholesale Co-operative Society, with headquarters at Manchester, has procured ground and will erect a shoe factory in Leeds which will employ one thousand persons.The society already has factories in other large cities in England.The representatives of the 1 la.1 road Brotherhood favorable to '.he formation of a federation of all uhe employes of the Canadian ran ways l ave, prepared a plan which they are confident that the Brother.ioad of Locomotive Engineers will accept.The railway men of England are not satisfied with the working of the terms of settlement reached after the recent strike.Complaints are made that certain railway companies have not adhered to the terms and have introduced methods which have displaced a great many men.Fifteen thousand carpenters in Chicago have voted to strike for an in.crease in wages April 1.The result of the recent, referendum vote showed that the offer of the contractors to pay a scale of 621 cents an hour had been rejected.The men insist upon their demand of 65 cents an hour for the next, three years.West; Mrs Ezra Blair, of East Clif ton, with her brother.Mr.Jos.Mc-Vetty, one day recently.Miss

clearly shown than in the decision of Mr.Justice Charbonneau, in the District Court of Montreal.A few days ago, a new retail firm, with the word \u201cVineberg\u201d as a part r.f their firm name, in inaugurating its advertising campaign, caused to be inserted in two Montreal papers large advertisements, the most pro-rr.inent features of which were y the words, \u201cProgress Proclaimed.\u201d Messrs.H.Vineberg & Co., Limited, Proprietors of \u201cProgress Brand Clothing \u201c immediately made applica-t on for an injunction restraining '¦his retail firm from using, for publicity purposes, the word \u201cProgress.\u201d Messrs.H.Vineberg & Co., Limited, claimed that the use of the word \u201cProgress,\" especially in connection with the name Vineberg, was calculated to mislead the public into believing that the new arrival was somehow or other connected with the older firm of the same name.Th?application for injunction was not opposed, and judgment was ren Jered in default, His Lordship Mr.Justice Charbonneau making the injunction so far reaching that the respondent, as well as the newspapers figuring in the case, are forbidden to publish any advertising material for respondent in which the word \u201cProgress'' is found.CLEVELAND.Arrivals and departures : Mr.Tlios.Wood and son Ever tt, of the Pin 1 naclc, guests of Mr.and Mrs.Wm.Smith on Wednesday; Miss Maud

FALSE.Authorities of Chinese Republic say | Reports are Wiihout Foundation.leaders declare that pessimistic REPORTS WERE UNWARRANTED AS TO CONDITIONS IN COUNTRY.Nanking, April 1.\u2014The report from Peking that looting was tjeing carried on at Nanking is absolutely without foundation.The city is perfectly quiet and the War Office reports that quiet also prevails at Soo-Chow.One pawnshop was burned in that town and one coolie was killed.The looting by a small body \u2018 of mutineers there was quickly suppressed.Premier Tang Sbao Yi, ex-President Sun Yat Sen and other leaders of the republican movement, during the course of interviews to-day, declared that pessimistic reports were unwarranted.Uneasiness in the foreign settlements in Shanghai and elsewhere, they admitted, was natural perhaps, but notwithstanding the financial difficulties caused by the delay through the withdrawal of the support of the Four powers group, they were quite confident that no serious outbreak would occur anyw\u2019here.RY.WORKERS QUIÎ.Were Hmployedon Canadian Northern Railway la British Columbia.MEN DEMAND MINIMUM OF $3.00 PER DAY OF NINE HOURS.Vancouver, B.C., April 1.\u2014Following an

first men to lay down pick and shovel were those engaged by subcontractors Benson and Nelson, which firm has a large camp at Lytton.The men along the line have been getting from $2.50 to $3.25 for ten hours.Their demand is for a minimum of $3.00 for a nine-hour day.This the sub-contractors will not grant.Meetings are being held in camps from Hope to Kamloops.Now it is said there is a stampede for
