No. 1, 13th Annual Con- has been well chosen for thering of workers.

-is a town famous on this it for its labour struggles. was a bitter year for the ers in that area, when, due to ible working conditions, they it on strike. _ Mr. Bowser was then premier ne ce eer he spec- police and the 72nd Regiment, hich became known as “Bows- ” Seventy-twa”.

_ Even these tactics failed to quell the miners, many of whom hundreds injured,

injuries. But the mine owners, backed by the government had more in store. They sent to Brit- ain, where times were bad in min- ing districts, and with golden promises lured miners all the way to Nanaimo. These British min- ers were not told of the strike until they arrived.

Nanaimo has bloomed and de- cayed with coal. When times were good in the mines the peo- ple prospered. When the mines were closed, the people starved. It is a good town, the home of jgood people, and it has the right to look back on solid labor achievement and forward to a day of prosperity and stability.
