Tho growing sentiment in England liifuvorof Iuli'i-iuttliin.'il bl-inctailisni is finding a hi'urty response in Prance, mil llie interest is iucreusi g in Germany, TliestuliiiiirnuillU-'i-i'iiL-eiu puw* t'rfiil and perhaps selfish adherence In Great Britain may act us a chock upon any effectual legislation, but even without ii there is no doubt that the combined action of tlm Latin nations with the United States could he made to result iu an international agreement for the coinage of gold and silver us standard money sufficiently powerful to lie practically universal. Unl il the period between 1S71 und 1874 there had lien vary little variation between the value of tbe two met- als, notwithstanding all the fluctuations in their relative production, Since that time the divergence has been great and continues to become greater, and the consequences threaten to lie disastrous unless the nation, exercising their prerogative, take legislative steps to restore thu parity, The United States alone cannot restore silver to tho place it has occupied for centuries, bul In combination with other nations Interested in maintain* ing a sound and substantial currency, such a ratio could lie fixed as would insure tlie respect of the entire world. The experience of the past few years has demonstrated that the theory that -apply and demand, acting Independently upon Hm vulue of the two metals would maintain a parity was fallacious, for almost, simultaneously witli the abandonment of legislative rating of silver it began to decline. Statistics given in these columns show conclusively that, through thu long perlud ol two hundred years, and during all Ihe fluctuations of production, the ratio bad remained practically the same; but si; spun us Ihu legislative link whlchlioiintlt.be two metals was severed, I he divergence between them began. Tin- gold tnono-motalllsts iusisi that tills divergence is due to the decline nf silver,,-mil many members of the English commission were inclined lo lake Ibis view nf It, lull aa all oilier commodities begun to decline in sympathy llieir eves were opened, llllll till' coin ictioii is i,ipidly spreading Ihal ii [a gold whicli Is advancing by virtue of its legislative monopoly, One of the members uf the royal commission of 1888, and who then reported adversely In the adoption ol lii-malallism, on tlie ground Uial "lbe greater pari of the fall III prices uf com* mndllles has resulted fnnn causes touching the commodities rather than from an appreciation of the standard," , later recanted, lie publicly deelaredi "I uin now satisfied thai lliere has, been ail appreciation of gold greater than I suspected when I signed the report, and I should not be able to concur In the same paragraph again." Tills goes rfgbt la the lout of ilm question, If gold bus appreciated it in ecausc of legislative support. Gold as not become less plentiful; on the intrary, il has increased in annual output, so thai tho enhancement of its alue is uol ilm. to scarcity, Ii will ut, lie denied thai ii growing scarcity gold and an increasing supply nf diver might in tho course ot a few pears have a disturbing Influence; bul the steadiness of silver us a medium nf ixchange through llu-years of most ictive production is proof thai Ulead* Iii inn Iii ilie bulk of the metal has I n in-*t liv ilie greater deuuiud created hy 'iiliirged commerce, Gernuschi sayst "Nairn produces ill ver and gold, hut does i produce money, li is the legislator who •(tributes In mn. of llu- nietils, or to Ihe two jointly, the monetary fiinctlon. ' Nuinlsinu' ciimes from from ' nouies,' law." Aristotle says; "Money bus value only hy the law, and nut hy nature, Inasmuch us change of agreement among I hose who use ii can depreciate It completely, The ancient pliilos, npber may, it seems front recent events, yel ho studied to great advantage. Edward Tuck, wlm is Ihe most clear and forceablc of the advocates of inter- national hi-iiielallism, has expressed Ihe situation iu terms which should lie- cotno an article of faith. "Iu llie period," bo says, "between 171)11 and 1831, when Ihe legal ratio of llie two metals was as 15 to 1 in Ihe United .Stales and as ljs to 1 in France, gold flowed from the United .Slates lo Europe, whero ils changeability was largest, while silver flowed from Europe U) the United Slates, where Its changeability was largest, In Wil the United States changed the ratio to II) to 1, iu stead, unfortunately, of adopting thu ratio of l."ij to I ill accord witli France; and from that time on silver migrated to Europe, gold taking Its place in the United Slates." The cbeapei coin remains and the dearer one migrates to the country where, by a different legal ratio between the two metals, it is more highly valued. To avoid the danger of either ex- reme, International bi-melullists insist that an equlpose shall he established hy law upon an Invariable parity of inter* changeable value. Tims would variable preferences he abolished, and the price of silver he as lb inly established i„'.,',.. iiommoroeof the wcrld-as gold, 4-+4 'llie llounilary I.lno Mall Sorvlee. The system, or rather the want of any system of mail service in transit across the International hnnudury line, reflects lilt Io credil upon Ilea postal ifflcials, We, of this district, desiring to send letters Into the United States wilh dispatch must rely entirely upon llie kindness and good will of tho slam'drivers travelling lietwcen Midi way and Marcus, Not only is this a source uf grievance on tiie llriiish sido of the line, as the following complaint, to lbe .Seattle Post-Intelligencer from a correspondent will testify; " At the town nf Wanda, II.

Above all oilier tilings, the English race prides itself ppon the cultivation of the domestic virtues, and 111 this respect the Queen has ever shown herself to he the exemplar of what is worilitost in the national character. Therefore her private joys havo rejoiced a people, and her sorrows regarded as a national misfortune. Her Majesty's reign bus heen distinguished, not only liy tbe enormous spread of British power, tbe growth of her colonies, and the increase iu the national wealth, hut by the extension of freedom, religious und political, by the discoveries in science, and by the progress io the arts, In celebrating the birthday of the Queen wo do honor to one. whose reign has been politically and socially the grandest in our history. 444 KELOWNA NOTES.

The weekly mail stage from Penticton arrived several hours behind the usual time on Friiluy, owing to an accident which occurred near Dog Lako to one of the hind wheels of the waggon. Tin's entailed upon the driver the necessity of returning to Okanagan Falls, where the damage was repaired. There is lo he a festive dance af Grand Prairie on May 21. As this js the only dance to be given in the district to commemorate the 7(ith birthday of our must gracious Queen, it behooves all loyal subjects to make merry on that day at Grand Prairie, where everyone will be made welcome at McLaren's new hall, close to their hotel. A sad accident occurred at Vernon last week, by which a young son of Mr. Tronson lost his life, The little fellow was riding on the range, when he wos thrown and dragged a consider able distance, Ills foot being caught in the stirrup. When at length bis com piuiions reached him the unfortunate, lad was quite dead. The funeral took place on the following day. The tourist season has well common ced, disciples of Isuak Walton, and lovers of good sport generally are beginning to find their way into the district. On last week's stage Mr. Morley pf Victoria, passed through Midway on his way to Grand Forks, carrying with |iim an excellent rod, and other ''destructive weapons," with which, nu doubt, formidable havoc will be made among thu dimi; u f Rood and forest evening meal ice-cream will prominently figure I Mr. Tom McDonald returned from the Okanagan country, having been ou a fruitless search for his horses.

The number nf cattle, 1,000 bead or more, taken out of the Okanagan hy the Douglas Luke Cuttle Company recently, will not only prove greatly beneficial to the overstocked ranges, but will also affect |o advantage lbe understocked purse of the rancher. Mr. F. Black is re-adjusting the boundary lines nf his ranch, the Corbin coal properties running over one portion of Ilis land. He lias been busily engaged fencing of late, and now has the greater portion of his property enclosed.

Now that the company lias recognised the necessity of rendering the stream navigable, no doubt the Dominion government will be induced to make an appropriation for the carrying out of the work. Some kind and considerate persons have placed drinking tins within reach nn tbe trees by the small creeks where weary travellers may quench their thirst comfortably. It is hoped all who use these useful tins will replace them. Too often they are used ami thrown aside. A peep at the hotbeds of the Mission tobacco culturists discloses the tact that the plants are well underway, and ready to set out in the field about the 1st of June. So far the recent frosts have been kept from damaging the young plants, and the prospect for a good crop are favorable. »-4M ,-^TUKMunw^ The Powers und Japan, The scandalous action of Russia, France, and Germany tq deprive Japan of ihe continental territory c.uli'il by China lias been received with great iudignat'ou b; the Jupanose Government. This Indignation Islntensl- | lied by tho Innliliass with which llie j hostile Intentions of Iho three greal powers has beep revealed, ll seems as MINING Nf)TES. Mr, II. White is out prospecting. Mr. T. Stevens .is.ut work on the Victoria claim. Mr. R. Denzter is d-iiiig assessment p-ork on tlieSte.imvinder. Mr. Hamlin located the Iron Cap, west fork Kettlo river, May. ft. The Wi'iidlick claim, west fork Kettle river, was located on May 11 by Mr. Lynch, Mr. J. Lynch and Mr. Pete Helstab returned to Midway Thursday after a prospecting tour up the West Fork of Kettle river. Sulpliuret ore, similar to (be Bed mountain ore, has be.cn found on main Sheep creek, five miles fnnn Rossland and twelve from Northport. Mr, Tom McDonald is doing assessment wurk on the Snow-shoe, Greenwood camp. This claim belongs to Messrs. McDonald, Denzler and Gilibs. Over 1(H) tons of concentrates will soon have accumulated at Camp McKinney awaiting shipment as soon as the rood over thu suniinit dries out sufficiently to haul over them, Mr. Sam McDonald located the Katie, Deadwood camp, un May 10. This claim is about one mile north uf the Great Hopes. The ore from the two claims bears a .strung similarity. Messrs, Richards, Carlmell and Schuster are doing assessment work on Mr, Lcfeyre's claims in Deadwood camp, the Crown Silver nud the Sun* et. They left Midway for Deadwood on Wednesday last. The ranch on Sheep creek formerly owned by Mr. Alex. Curry, and on which lie located a mineral claim some two years ago, is now one mass (so to speak) of mineral claims, und worth many thousands of dollars. As soon as the ore sacks arrive Mr. Elliot, will start, shipping ore out of the Smuggler mine, Fairview, and if Ibis turns out well at the smelter then will hardly be any limit to the auioun that will lie shipped out. It. Is the intention to ship at least 500 tons as a lirst experiment, Mr. W. T, Thompson, nf Fairview, and Mr. Douglas, who has large copper interests in Arizona, paid a visit to tlie Suniinit and Copper camps lasl week, arriving iu .Midway on Monday. They proceeded op Hie creek on Tuesday, and leturned to Penticton for the north on Wednesday. Although Mr Douglas made so cursory a stay here be was very favorably impressed with our ore bodies, A formidable looking stranger with Iwo revolvers strung in liis belt nnd a rifle alongside, was seen working assiduously wilh a double-headed pick on some country rock in the neighbor hood of Greenwood camp last. week. It is presumable that some of Trail's miners have told the new comer of hear and other ferocious beasts in tins wild and wuolcy country. At any rate we are sure the owner of t]ie above-mentioned weapons would be able to bold bis own should any such dangers appear. Mr. Tom Barrett and Mr. Harry Shrlmpton passed through Midway on Wednesday on their way to Hock creek lo record the Black Jack, located May Slh on Main Sheep creek, where they report great excitement prevails and many locations are taking place. Main Sheep creek being just within tlm boundaries of Osoyoos division of Yale District, and 'consequently in the Kettle river mining division, necessitates a sixty miles ride for those whn are lucky enough lo have anything located I here to record at Rock creek. The Headlight was located May 0 by Mr. Pete Helstab. The claim is silu- ated about twelve miles above the meadows up the west, fork of Kettle river. The vein is 100 feet wide in places and can be (raced for six miles. This claim was discovered by J. Morrison, Morgan and While in '1)2, assessment work done'112 and '93, and then llie claim was abandoned, The assay returns nre very high, both for copper and silver, but Hie exact amount lias nut been yet. made known, Mr, Helstab also located the Monitor on May 10 in the same locality.

Tlie plaintiffs, in their provisional specification, stated the nature of llieir invention' as helug llnil they treated tin- powdered thai was brushed ore—wit ha solution of cyanide of potassium till nearly all the gold trust dissolved, lua provisional spocl- flcallpn nq claim was ever iniiile liy the patentee, lie hud nol in stale therein jvhtil he claimed or how lie carried oul Ids Invention, Imt In- mint slate ils iialllt'O iu Bitch u way Uial llie law nh"l- proceeded wit hat once, and the Institution opened, ,1. Hatelil'iiiil, tbe Superintendent, with the assistance of prison labor and tenuis employed fm* a few days, has reduced to highest order the orchard ami grounds adjoining the home. Until now it is a pretty spot, and, with the bountiful supply ot water wliieli belongs to the property, itseems doubtful whether more beautiful surroundings could be found in the pro, vince than will be those of the home. The lirst Inmate has arrived, a patient Btifferiug from asthma, and who lias been quartered in Ilie farm collage. Demand forPnoli Horses, There hns heen an unusually active demand of late for pack train horses nn-the Cariboo and Cassinr districts, This is considered a gond Indication of improving liusiness und increased milting developments. Jlr. Uiillireath, Ihe AMrCULL. dKUS. lending merchant of llie Cassiar dis* , ','."", I ti-iel, bought a train of I want y-six unit's might see what it wa-, and sn thai I ■ , , , , v., ' 1 nulls lasl week, which were transported to Victoria, and will there await shipment In the north by the first llu-identity of its subject matter with hai of ilie complete, specification uliii-li was 111 conic lliereal'l"!' might I o nscoitulned, In tin- complete sped- llentinii the patentee had In do much more. Nut only had lie to stale therein whal his in.'-, nl inn was, lull lie musl niirlii'ii'miy describe Iiqjv ils invention was to bu carried oul and performed, and what be claimed, und then came the time, applying thu rule of law to the presenl case, for the plaintiffs to slate the proposition in which they find that the cyanide "f potassium was io be used in the solution to carry out their invention, Thnt was what they had done. They could not, hold thai lliere was nny iliseonfnrniily, as argued by the defendants. Assuming that the specification be read ns thu plaintiffs desire il should, still there remained (liy, ij ileal ion as to what was the true reading nf Ihe specification with cl'llm No. 1 in it, Sir Richard Webster argued that claim No. 1, with the words at the end, "substantially us hereinbefore described," limited Ihal claim to (he quantity of cyanide of potassium claimed, Their Lordships could not read the specifications in Unit way. l'iiey would if they could, but they could not do so. It appeared to them that claims 1 and 2 were independent claims, havingapplieatlip a, 'he whol- specification—the first making claim for the use of any cyanide of potassium in solution Irrespective of amount sub* , stnntially as therein described,and the second making claim fin- the use of a dilute solution containing a specified quantity of cyanide of potassium, It appeared lu Ihem iinnosaShle to discard either the ono or the other, or to hold that both meant the same thing, or ^bul. claim 1 applied to one part of llie yieriliaal.ilui und claim 2 to another, for that, In their judgment, was not thu true eonsl rtu.ttoii of the specification as framed, If llu-first claim hud had been disclaimed or omitted they would not have been faced with the difficulty lhey were, Imt as it was in the specification they were unable lo read it as the plaiotilfs desired lo do, and for that reason and Ibal, reason alone, lhey must witli reluctance give judgment fur the defendants and dismiss thu appeal wilh costs, The Cussel Company will carry (he case up In Ihe House of Lords, and ns Ibey have lind official i.iiitillcnt ion that theycaii amend tlie specification there is oo doubt as in the final issue of Ihe litigation, The Company control patents all over the world, and In the face of this lhey will undoubtedly look very carefully after their rights and will lie in ti position to maintain them. Referring to the decision iiy the Court of Appeal lbe Glasgow Herald of April It) says Hint while shares of llie Cassel Company fell ou Ihe,Slock Exchange on the first, lull* inatiun of it, lhey subsequently rallied whim the actual facts became known and that thu appellants had t.ho right to amend llieir specification so ns lo meet (lie objection wliieli had lieen held fa!nl to the sueeess of the appeal. The MeArlhtir-Forrest process is likely to be largely used iu British Columbia, indeed, us was said above, it is only by Ibal or some similar method that a large proportion of the ores of Ihe Province can he profitably treated, and it is out, we think, venturing ou loo great a prophecy lo say Hint in the application of lbe MeArllittr-ForresI process will lie found lbe means of eie atlngan activity in llie mining of the quail-,-.hdgesof ibe Province whicli Will create a period of general prosperity, Willi Ibis view we tllOllgllt it, llliglll.be ireful lo go tints fully Into tjlic subject of the present position of the Cassel Company io regard lo the illcArthur-r'nrresI process anil the patenl which protects it. Through it, agent for I'nmida, Mr. VV. I'ellow- llurvey, of Vancouver, the Company will take active steps to bring the 'process Intogeiieral use, with the belief thai while their Is ait ample Held for operations, the general adoption of Ihe process by mine owners will bun. res ills i i British Columbia similar to those wliieli ha\i' brought South Africa so rapidly into the front rank of countries in whicli ■■old mining is the great cen- t ti I Industry, -. •» . 4 Tile Provincial Homo, I.'.

Several of Ihe explosives used ill blasting within the lust few years have been combinations of which cbloruteof potash forms a conspicuous element. With petroleum it makes " rack-a* rock," with saltpeter and crude gamboge Ihe "the oriental powder," once used in opening Ihfc oil wells in Pennsylvania, and with potasaium-ferro, ferri-eyaiilde and sugar, an article known both as "while powder" nnd •' (Jerman gunpowder." This same salt has also been mixed witli sulphur aiid other various materials for the same general purpose. A new coin- pound of the chlorate, with sugar only is now reported from South Africa, It is called "thorite," probably after the Scandinavian god of thunder, I'linr. For several months Ibis explosive has been tested in Ihe coal mines at Vereenlglng and elsewhere, w|lh excellent, results, It is said to be all most as powerful as dynamite, weight for weight, cheaper to toake, and virtually free from unpleasant funics Sir Frederick Abel, one of tlie inventors of cordite and a leading authority on explosives in England, bus sent an expert to Capetown to establish a laboratory I'm- further experiment. Wherein the superiority of thorite over oilier potassium chlorate powdets lies is uot Indicated in the brief press notices hitherto published. In someof the mixtures used, especially those containing resinous gums, tbe particles become consolidated hy heat, a result impairing lite efficiency of the product, and one which it. would not be safe to overcome by trituration, One would anticipate that moisture would effect, sugar in a similar way, lint, possibly thorite is guarded from damp air scrupulously until it is used. A Tramway tn the Minos, We are pleased to note, through the medium of tlie New Denver Ledge, Unit a llriiish Columbia firm, the 11, 0, lion Works of Vancouver, bus secured the order for tbe equipment of tlie Sin- can Tramway Company's lines, which are being built from the concentrator to the various mines iu the vicinity of New Denver, The Tramway Is being built on the three rail principle. Six cars, of two tons capacity each, are being built iu Vancouver to equip tlie roud. To control those,powerful fiieliiui brakes will ibe used. In many cases the grade will be exceedingly ilcute, nearly 15 per eenl. The curs will be worked on the gravitation principle, one car going down witli ore pulling up a second with supplies. The cable to bu used will be a two-inch, sevciileen-sl.rand, of line sled. Great headway is being made with Um work, anil it is predicted that in two months'Ihne the concentrator will be running wit. full supplies; nf ore via the tramway, The B, 0. Iron Works will extend their capacity to manufacture nil kinds of concentrator utul general mining machinery, They are receiving much encouragement from large mine owners. ,1, The Lookout Mining Company.
