For the first time in a number of years several representatives of the mining industry met with the lumbermen, at the invitation of the latter Association, as the mining industry have been having troubles through the Workmen's Compensation Board, the same as the lumber operators. Amongst those present at the meeting were:—Messrs. Donald Fraser, Senator Black, Miller, Priest, Burchill, O'Brien, Fenderson, Schryer, Gregory, Snowball, Sinclair, Blackball (representing Stet- son, Cutler & Co.), Richards, McEvoy, Patterson, Holly, Streeter, Beedy, Irvine, McLean, Ritchie, McLellan and others identified with the lumber industry, and Messrs. A. D. Taylor, Wood and Coll re- presenting the mining industry. The Canadian Manufacturers' Association lately have been active and endeavoring to have the manufacturers, including lumber- men, form a general association under the provisions of the New Brunswick Workmen's Compensation Act. The question of the lumbermen joining this proposed Associa- tion created considerable discussion at the meeting. It was finally resolved that "we as lumbermen stand apart and do not join such proposed organization but that we continue as our own Association and seek recognition thereof under the terms of this Act," The New Brunswick Lumbermen's Association has been asking recognition of its industry under the terms of the Workmen's Compensation Act for, at least, two years, but so far without success.
