(Halifax Herald) | The Senate is now hard up againsti the duty of purging itself, of asserting its own integrity and guarding its own honour before the eyes of the people of Canada, Is the Senate equal to that duty? _ For its members may be very sure that the Senate as a parliamenâ€" tary institution is going to be judged solely upon results; upon actions, not professions; upon desds, ncot words. The Timmins team going to Cochâ€" rane for the occasion were:â€"Jos. Cleâ€" ment, J. Staunton, Chas Brown, J. D. Brady, Capt. D. Jones, P. Beauâ€" dreau and M. O‘Brien, The trap was fast, angles acute and a high wind, making birds very hard to get. In the second twentyâ€"five bird e#ent Mr. Tickner and Mr. Hobson of Cochâ€" rane won first and second. However, the Timmins club memâ€" bers were on hand and carried away the Board of Trade trophy. In a thousand bird shoot they beat Cochâ€" rane by six birds. Mr. Stanton won first prize in the first twentyâ€"five bird event and Mr. Clement was second. The first annual tournament of the Cochrane Gun Club tock place on Monday of this week at the field day in Cochrane Unfortunately neither Kapuskasing nor Iroquois Falls teams were present, being unable to attend on account of weather conditions. Timmins Club Wins Board of Trade Trophy in District Tournament. Other Prizes Won by Members of Porcupine Rod and Gun Club. There were some common drunks and one not so common or perhaps too comâ€" mon, the fine being $50.00 and costs in this case. One drunk charge was withâ€" Timmins Shots Win Prizes at Cochrane For allowing a cow to run at large one woman was assessed $2.00 and costs. One speeding case cost the offender $5.00 and costs. Another similar case was remanded to next week. The police some days ago raided the premises of Rudoiph Leprade, 554 Wilâ€" son avenue. There were men in there drinking and a quantity of liquor was seized. Leprade was given a term of three months for keeping liquor for sale. It will be noted that Chisf Jones and his men are after the places where liquor is believed to be illegally handled and the intenticn is to close them all up. Another liquer case was dismissed. A woman laid a charge against a man for using bad language on the street, and the.man‘s wife preferred a similar charge, but both cases were disâ€" missed. Anoher case in which man and wife were both charged was that of taxi driver and his wife both of whom were charged with the theft of watch.: It was shown in court that neither siole the watch but that the waich had been held as security for a taxi bill.

Works in any Fort William, and that except at Pine Falls the men had refused to accept the cut. The same cut would affect ’Sturgeon Falls, Espanola and Sault Ste. Marie if these mills were operâ€" ating, all being under the ownership of the Abitibi. It does appear as a hardship that men out of work for some time or on part time only should be faced with a cut in pay to make it harder for them to recover their forâ€" mer standing. The men at Iroquois lFalls have always been fair and reaâ€" lsonable in their requirements and so ’have a large body of public opinion beâ€" hind them _ It is to be hoped that the matter will be adjusted to mutual satâ€" isfaction by the conference now in proâ€" gress so that the paper industry may not add to its difficulties just at the time when prospects are beginning to |brighten up all round. at the present time. Word from Iroâ€" quois Falls is to the effect that the proâ€" posed cut in wages had been announcâ€" ed in regard to the mills at Pine Falls, Manitoba, at Fort Frances, Kenora and There was danger of a strike at the Abitibi Power and Paper Co. plant at Iroquois Palls this week following the ‘announcement that a five per cent. cut ! 1 prices had ‘been reducea’ by“‘{he comâ€" would take place in the wages of emâ€" ployees on August I1st. The men at Iroquois Falls are all union men and the unions took up the question of the proposed reduction in wages So far as the reports go in the matter the men generally were strongly opposed to the cut in wages, claiming that it was unfair and burdensome and not in keeping with the understanding beâ€" tween the men and the company. Thel wages paid at the Falls plant appear‘ good at the present time ranging from 42 cents to $1.25 ver hour, but against this is set the fact that employment has not been steady, there being conâ€" siderable part time, and also that the high cost of living must be considered as an important factor. The claim of the men is that as they say rent to the company for the houses at the Falls and have to make any purchases made at the Falls to company stores, , the only fair way in which wages could be reduced would be after rents and pany. Late last week is appeared as if | the question of the reduction of wages | would precipitate a strike at Iroquois Falls. This however, was averted for the present at least, by the arrangeâ€" ment of a conference between the officials. This week this conference of heads of the union and the company is being proceded with, and in the meanâ€" time the plant at the Falls is continuâ€" ing work as usual, the recent rate of wage being continued until the conâ€" ference comes to a decision. About 1000 men at the Falls would be affected by a strike and all possible should be done to avoid any trouble of this kind | Union and Company Confer to Avert Labour Trouble.

The claim has been made that the Workers‘ Coâ€"operative has been appropriating money under Jhe head of educational funds for purâ€" poses that are nc more than communist propaganda. The chief complaint of the dissenting members is that the principnles of coâ€"operation have been more or less sideâ€"tracked and that the old socie‘y is being chiefly considered for its value as a means of furthering communist plans that have nothing to do with coâ€"operation. As a means of getting back to the principles of coâ€" operation, the Consumers Coâ€"operative has been formed. The members of the‘ new coâ€"operative society are all loyal to Canada and concerned only in their society with the principles of coâ€"operâ€" ation. Among those concerned in thel new coâ€"operative society is a former .lmanager of ‘the coâ€"operative store, which achieved its greatest measure of success under his management. The building to be occupied by the new coâ€" ocperative society was also pleasingly associated with the success of the coâ€" cperative movement in this camp, and / so the opening of the new store on Monday next is under hapmpy and very favourable auspices and with the best chances for success for the principles of ccâ€"operation and for the benefit of the members of the new society.

These claims caused the first sensational exâ€" citement in the early days of this disâ€" trict, when the first gold discovery was made in a heavy sulphide and pyrrhoâ€" tite dike which also contained a great deal of quartz. Free gold was, and still is, to be seen in quartz stringers which cut the dike almost at right angles. _ _"Adjacent to the east of Joe Therâ€" dault‘s claims lie Martin Harkness‘s claims which resemble, geologically, the Theriault property. It is reported by the owner that good panning is obtainâ€" able, and some free gold is found in quartz porphyry. Mr.. Harkness has other claims a little over one mile west of the Theriault property where he reports that he panned gold while doing this year‘s assessment work in July.
