Abstract
During the course of its long history, the Canadian Military has been called out of the civil power on numerous occasions. More recently floods and forest fires have been major causes, but earlier in this century aid to the civil power frequentiy meant supporting local police who were unable to cope with the unrest or disorder caused by a major strike. This particular type of was probably the most disliked task a militia regiment might be called upon to perform. Strikes by miners in the Nanaimo area had resulted in the militia being called out in 1877 and again in 1890. Twenty-two years later, in 1912, a series of events took place which once again set the miners against the managers and owners of the coal mines in the area. In part the miners were striving for union recognition, they wanted greater safety precautions in the mines, and there were a number of other issues which the miners felt must be resolved. In September the strike began, and as usual it was met by management with the hiring or retention of non-union workers together with the employment, from Victoria and elsewhere, of a large number of special constables to protect the property of the mining companies. As the months dragged on the situation got uglier. There were confrontations and constant threats between the strikers and the working miners. By the late summer of 1913, following riots, arson and shoot-outs, the situation was such it was obvious that law and order could no longer be maintained either by the local police or the special constabulary. It was at this point that the call went out for the militia.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
