It is rumored that Ihe Cariboo cnni

at the uiiin*, nud also Increase the
capacity uf llieir hallery liy an addition
of 2(1 more stamps, ll would out he al
all surprising shuuld this minor he
founded on fuel,as if is well known llle
conipiiny are taking uut more .ireal Ihe
present time than theycau handle with
their 10 slump mill, ana since llle
Introduction of the Burley drills the
wm k of developinenl is progressing so
rapidly, they will soon have large reserves of ore blocked nut, lu fact there
is sufficient in sight at present
to keep a large plant running for
a very considerable length of time,
Without doulit the Carihoo ranks Hrst
among the free milling gold propositions of B. 0. and well doesshedeserve
llml distinct inn.
At the opening ceremony of Ihe
sixth annual exhibition of the Okanagan and Spallumcheeu Agricultural
Society, the member elect for ihis riding Mr. Donald Oraham had the honor
of presiding, His remarks we are tnld
were tinged with politics, he having
taken occasion during his speech to refer to the railwayquestion, as affeel Ing
his hearers, Ihe people of tills district
and the province as -i whole, He is
reported to have said lhat, he held that
the road from Penticton to Rossland
should he constructed as a government
work. From Ihis it can he clearly
gathered that not loMi-.Grahain's door
at anyrate should be laid the blame for
any delay in tbe providing railway
communication to this district (as a
section of the provincial press Is at lbe
present time claiming,) mid Ihe more
thoroughly are we convinced of'siichais
we remember how strenously he
fought over the clause relating lo the
enforcement of the early construct ion
of the C. k W. or any other railway,
that might take advantage of the cash
subsidy of $1,(100 a mile voted for the
budding uf 100 miles of road hetween
Penticton and Boundary Creek.

A petition has heen circulating in
the district recenlly which has received
the signature of a large number nf
residents, who nre interested in the
development of the .vest Keltic river
secllon. The pelitinners pray that a
means he afforded thi'in and others, hy
which lhey can in the early spring find
Iheirwny upl.hi'inain Kellle river. The
great ob'sl ruction tu Iheir pi ogress is
the wst. l'ork of the sl renin which at a
point a few miles above Hock (.'reck
hns to be crossed. This is made a lie-
ccsssiiy as the claims, many iu number,
which have heen laken up Ibis summer, lit* enclnsed within llle lerriliiry
made hy|the fnrkiii,'of I liariver. Also to
explore the enormous territory stretching out towards the noilh and along
lhe main course nf the slreatu, lhe
west fork has to he crossed, so il
will he seen Hint a great necessity
exists furtlieGovernment intake steps
in Ihe early spring In provide a means
llf crossing this slri-atn. This could lie
aiiaiuid hy lhe construction of abridge
whicli we nn* given to undersland
could be liuill by tlie expenditure nf a
modeinle sum uf money,audits a great

A t-i-:w duvs ,uiu u large number of
delegates assembled al New Westminster with the object of funning ii Provincial Liberal Assucliillnn. In this
they were pnrtii-uliirly successful, in
the work of organisation nnd election
uf officers wns carried uul under the
must auspicious conditions, nothing
occurring to unit* the even tenor of tbe
proceedings. Thai such an association
is in existence is a matter of much
congrat uinl tun, nnd lhe mure sons Ils
members hy the adoption nf the following resolution;—"That the members of
Ihis convention decline lhat they nre
emphatically opposed to the policy of
the presenl Brilish Columbia government, as shown hy lbe legislation pro*
moled by the goveriiinenl, and by the
acl loll nfthenxerut ive, nnd thev me uf
ihe opinion thai, their continuance
in nllic- is detrimental tu the
general welfare uf the Pruvince,"
bavepleged themselves In lend their
support to the Opposition pnrly,
nl the nexl. genera: election, Up
iu this pu-iii therefore, we are iu
perfeci accord with I be alms and aspirations of ibenewlyf.iruied association.
That it was decided however tu gu
furl her and lay dnwn a plalfot'lil in
provincial affairs, we are sorry, as we
feel that thai was a matter which
shuuld have been left to the Opposition,
Iuu as we are nut iu receipt ot'thepliil-
fonii as furnished by the Liberal Association we will refiain from further
commenting upon the subject.

A few days ago il became known
that a deal had been put through between Messrs Denzler, (iibbs aud McDonnell tbe owners and Mr. P. Clark
nl llulle nn lie- Snowslioe claim, and
as a consequence the residents of
Boudary Creek were much elated.
The claim is nne .veil known in and

Greenwiiud camp's big propositions,
which recently has drawn an enhanced amount of attention owing lo
ibe fact lhat development has shewn

A Btory .vns recently Inld uf how n
preacher lesled the elfecl of the hard

conclusion of one nf his sermons, he
suid; "Let everyhndy in lhe house
who puys his duhts stand op." Instantly every man, woman and child, uiih
one exeepl inn, ruse to their feel, He
sealed the crowd and then said : "Let
every man wlio is not pnving his dehts
stand up," The exception noted, a
care-worn, hungry individual, clothed
in his last summer suit, slowly assumed
a perpendicular position and leaned on
the hack of the seat in front of liini.
"How is it, my friend," inquired the
minister, "that you are the only man
m this large congregation who is un-
ahle lo meet his ohligulioiis?" "I
pohlish a newspaper," he meekly replied, "and my hrelhern here, wlio

A Boundary Banquet.
Boundary Creek mining division is
well represented at the fruit fair, and
a number of the gentlemen from that
booming sectiun decided that the
proper thing would he a banquet. Accordingly a coinniitte was formed lo
take tbe matter in hand and provide a
feast for the visitors and Iheir friends.
Tlle committee consisted of Henry
While, of While's camp, chairman; ,1.
C. Hans, the well known mining engineer, secretary ; W. T. .Sinilh, i£nlining
man of Boundary Creek ; A. ,S. lilnck,
barrister uf Green wood ; James McNicol, merchant, iMidway, and Alderman L. A, Mllllley of (Irand Kinks.

ihe festivities, whicli hegan al 0o'clock

England Declines.
The St. James Gazette, of recent date
refeirlngtu lbe formal ttniiuuneemenl
of Great Britain's declination lo tuke
part iu tbe Bering sea conference, to
which Kiissla and Japan might he
part ics sayst—
"There will he a feeling nf relief thai
Great Britain in behalf of Canada, has
finally declined to walk into the Iran
which was Icing arranged ul Washing.
tun, America hus never paid lhe
indemnities fnr the alleged seizure of
Canadian sealing vessels, and has exhausted every diplomatic ui-iillce In
moid the award, finally demanding -i
fresh conference, The | Marquis of
Salisbury consented, whereupon
America proposed thai Russia and
Japan shuuld have scuts nt the conference with the obvious inleuliun of outvoting England and upsetting by aside
wind the Paris award"
ANOTHER VIEW.
The Spokane Chrnnicle commenting
upon the above subject looks at Ihe
matter in a very fair light when itsuys
that "There is no doubt lhat the refusal of Gieat Britain in enter into conference wilh Ihe United Stales, Russia
and Japan upon thu sealing question,is
due to the insistence uf Cunaila, caused
by the fear that the delegates of the
three Inst named countries would unite
againsl and net-vote Ihe llriiish representatives on all Important points.
"Such a fear is not, unreasonably
founded. Canada has every reason to
regard wilh suspicion Ihe Intentions of
the UniledStates towards her Interests,
and we huve already several instances
in which she has 'effected and threatened retaliatory measures.
"Tb.* whole policy of the pieselit
nduiinslration towards nni- nnrlhern
neighbor is so., ing llie seed, already
sprung to an early harvest, of distrust,
antipathy and strife. The Dingley
lui-ilf repels Canadians from our
commercial sphere, where they properly belong; the iniinigratinn laws
nre aimed against thein in manifest
injustice, while our naval militia is a
constant suegssi Ion to their minds of
territorial aggression, It is all a mi;
taken notion of the relations of this
country and Canada. It is foolishness,
not statesmanship."

THE ADVANCE
LOCAL AXD DISTRICT.
Mr. J. L. McGregor P. L. S. ol Rossland is spending a few days ill the district.
Mr. Duncan Koss, of the Boundary
Creek Times passed through to Greenwood on his way back from the coast,
on Saturday.
Mr. 0. B. Nelson,of Nelson Wash.,
passed through town on Saltiidav, on
his way home, after having taken a
trip to sum ■ ot the towns to the west
uud norlh.
Mr, AngusCaineron, of Cascade Cilv,
has lieen appointed piistuiaslui, Iherefore llie near future will see an
otllcu established there, The people of lhe districl triliiiliiry to Ciisi-ade
City will lie greally pleased at. Ihis.
Loads of hrick are lieing laken from
here lo Camp McKinney just now.
These will he used liy the (Jarilion conipiiny Ui hrick in the new boilers which
are being installed In contiecliou uiih
the air compressor and hoisting plants.
The Lieuleiuit Governor has been
pleased to appoint Henry Nicholson,
Esq., of Camp McKinney a Justice uf
the Peace for the Yale districl. Notice
of Mr. Nicholson's appointment up-
Pears in the last issue of the B. C.
Gazette,
Although the appointment has not
heen as yet gazetted, it is understood
J. P. should now be affixed to the
name of G. ti. Rose, Esquire uf Cascade
City, who it is said is also likely to receive a customs appointment at the
same place.
Dr. J, W. Powell ofVictoria who is a
representative of a strong English Mining syndicate passed through Midway
on Tuesday last, hound for the Kootenay country, there to look after some
mining interests. Mr. Cuppnge, Road
Superintendent for this district accompanied Dr. Powell as far us Anaconda.
Mr. J. Anderson one of the officials of the Bank of British Norlh America at Rossland, paid a visit lo Midway
the past week, and after looking over
the place proceeded to Camp McKinney
and Fuirview. Mr. Anderson is spying out the laud, and tlle resull maybe
a brunch of ilie bunk established in
some one of ihe mining towns of this
district in the near I'm nre.
A line annual belonging to Mr. C. L.
Thomet, stlcciiiulied to the epidemic
which is playing sad havoc anting
horses, on one day of lh* pist week.
All hough ii is suid ihe epidemic Is not
glanders, yi-t il would seem lo be just
about, us bad, as lllc .strongest of slock
witlistiiiiii ils ravages for only about u
week. The Iirsl symptoms of lhe disease are those of a bad cold, but giaul-
ii illy the kidneys become affected, and
Ihen it soon becomes fatal. Tlle matter should be strictly looked into.
During the past week lhe town was
honored by a, visit from Mr. Waller
Adams, who holds Ihe responsible
position of mining expertto Ihe Adams
Brilish Columbia conipiiny, a strong
syndicate formed in England for the
purpose of exploiting Kootenay and
Yale properties, which formerly wei e
owned by his father Captain Adams,
Not to view the scenery of Midway
however was Mr. Adrins' visit to the
district made, but lo make a thorough
examination of the Sunset claim In
Deadwood camp, for eastern parties,
who are interested in the properily.
This he did before leaving,
Wednesday's stage brought to the
district Mr. A. S. Cravi II, of Vernon,
a mining man and expert' of vast ex-
peiience, and who represents one of
the strongest of English milling syndicates. The object of Mr. Craven's
visit was lo take a look at the Mother
Lode claim in Deadwood i-ninp, which
is now owned and is being rapidly developed by Ihe Boundary Mines company. Mr. Craven's iippearance in Ihe
dlsli-icl no doubt presages Ihe consuui-
iiiiilion of a big mining deal, and il is
safe to predict that it islll." oiilioine of

trial at the Vernon Assizes, which
opened on (he 14 insl., the jury afler a

A Soootlng Affray.
Eiirekacamp, Wash., was the scene
of a shooting affray a few dnys ago. It
would seem that a man by Ihe name
of J. Heuuesy had some words wilh a
man by the name of J, Marlin, and
thereupon the former left the house
and went and procured a rifle, and
returning to tiie building shot, through
the window, the bull striking the latter in lhe front of the leg and ranging
up through the hip. Upon the wounded
man being taken to Grand Forks it wns
found that the hip bone was badly
shattered and the patient is aot expected to live.

Deal in Camp HcKInney.
It. is reported that the Carihoo Mining and Smelting company have purchased a two thirds interest in the
Okanagan claim, in Camp McKinney
from Messrs S. Mangott and 1). Mc-
Echeran of Fairview. It is said lhe
price paid was $10,000. The Okanagan
lies to the easl of (he famous Cariboo
claim, the Amelia and a small portion
of a fractional claim culled the Saw
Tooth lying between thein. but which
properties are also owned by Ihe company. The other one third interest in
the Okanagan is owned by the well
known old tinier in Camp McKinney
Mr. J. Muran who was (he original
locator of the property.

MIXING   NOTES.
Mr. James Atwood with a force of
iii.-ii is engaged in development work
on the Wake claim In Summit camp.
The Wake is an extension of or lies
near the Cordick, and latest advices
are to theeffect I hat a good body of ore
is being uncovered.
It is slated that the Jubilee claim on
Ingram Mountain has changed hands.
Mr. J. McNicol and partners having
disposed uf it to Mr. S. M. Johnson of
Anaconda. The Jubilee is a recent
location, thut lies to the south of the
Bruce and between that claim and the
Magnetite nnd from Its position and
surface showings should be a desirable
property.
The Robin Hood and the Assayer,
two claims on the west fork of Keltle
river, have changed liuiids, the owner
Mr. W. E. Gullredge, having disposed
of them lo a Mr, B. Leather who Is a
representative of uu English coinpaiiy,
It is asserted that the company acquiring the properly will soon put men to
work aud will continue development
during tlle course of lhe winier and in
fact iudellualely.
Tiie Bruce claim ou Ingram mountain is atlrucling a good deal of iitteu-
tiou at. lhe present time, quite u number of mining experts hnving lecenlly
examined the properly, It is suid
arrangements are being entered inlo
by the owner Mr. ,1, 0, Haas with a
syndicate who will develop the Bruce
under a working bond for un inleiesl
In the claim, Il is quite likely therefore, the near fiUni.' will see men lo
work ou this mountain,
Mr. II, Strauss relumed from lhe
region of lhe west, Kellle liver a few
days ago itnd brought dnwn .villi him
some nice looking samples or ore taken
from cliiiins recently located bv him,
wbich arc four iu number, viz, the
I anion ,* lhe Kingston ; the Belle, and
the Greenwood. Tbe ore is principally
quarlz, currying arsenical iron and a
Utile copper pyriles, its principal value
lieing however In gold, wbich has
g'ven values by Hjsay fium i*p5 to %'2H
in the ton, As with similar ore
found iu lhe same region this arsenical
iron ore seems lo carry a much higher
percentage of gold ibnndo similar ores
found in other sections of Ibis districl,
and therefore developinenl may disclose some valuable properties, The
ledges In I he cliiiins located by prospector Slruss run from 5 to 20 feet in
widlh, undare found in a dirite and
quarl-'.ite formation, in close proximity
lo granite. '

NOW IS THE TIME
To get in on the ground floor. The company having recently purchased the McDonnell
ranch of about 560 acres, adjoining its mineral claims, now possesses unusual facilities for carrying
on mining operations on a large scale. This purchase has secured to the Company excellent
mill and smelter sites; abundant water power for mining, electric light, domestic and other
purposes, and other desirable advantages.
Forty acres of this land, very conveniently and centrally situated at the junction of Eholt
Creek and Boundary Creek, have been surveyed into town lots, and the new townsite has
been named.
CREEK CITY.
ITS situation is a most favorable one. being at
the meeting place of two much used routes o
travel—to Long Lake, Pass Creek and Summit
camps, and to Kimberly camp, and llu- main Kettle
River respectively. It is also the only known
practicable railway pass from the east,  su  will  be
nigh   on tht:  line of ihc  new  railway from the
Columbia River to Penticton,
Huilding has already commenced on the new
townsite, which offers particular inducement for
both business and residence purposes. There are
now good openings for several kinds of businesses
and the company will give exery encouragement
to business men establishing themselves at this
point. Prices of lots are within the reach of all,
and buyers building on them will be liberally dealt
with. Full particulars of both mineral claims and
town lots will be given upon application to the
