THE BRIDGE AT KAlltVIEW.
To the editor of Tun AdyaniMS ;
Sir—I wish to draw your attention
to the fact that a year ago the Government called for lenders for building it
bridge ovci the Okanagan River near
fairview. A few remarks from one
wlm saw the plans and specifications
might not, under present circuui-
»ut,.,:es, he out of plac'O.
' Having occasion nearly a year ago lo
go over the grovtnl now occupied by
the road, I found it necessary lo use a
raft over part of the distance from the
ltin|: ground on the west side to the
bank of Ibe river, a distance of about
BOO feel, aiid the balance of Lite way to
Wade through water knee deep,
The plans and spec!Hcatious called for
this part of the road In be covered, in
the Iirsl, place, with the brush cut down
for tho right of way, whicli was to lit
piled in lite centre of the road, anil on
lliti'l'op,!.!' thai wilh two feel, of solid
dirt with ditches on each side. Two
culverts would have been reip'ilrcd'for
the carrying away of tlie water, whicli
Ivould back up agdnst such road. Al
present it is almost entirely covered
R,(li water, in most places two feet
deep, and as the river has not reached
lis height, there is a great likelihood of
its shortly being impassable,
i 1 have born' infornicd thai thu inspector had orders, when oxiinilng the
bridge and rnnd lo receive il, although
it might not have been luilll according
to contract, as the contractor bad not
tniitli1 any mtiilny on the job, If such
Is tin1 case, I resepectfully ask, should
(he contractor aavo special favors
Shown bint antl not do work according
Ip specifications ? I have also huon Informed thai the Govornuicnl bad a
man working tin the road between
''i'S' mix I ake and Fairview shortly
jJi'twFif'v.'iiS'ltit'lit'd over to the officials,
doing work which wits left undone be-
Stire by the contractor. Perhaps our
lliief tloininiiissioner of Lauds antl
Vorks will go do.v ii and see for him-
self how the wor6?%is done, aud coni-
hare ifwilh what vtais called for, anil
let us'know the result. Vours t''i|ly,
I' HtjCAl. Riou'rsl'

A  four  horse load of freight  (beside
loads • ken by single teams) has already been drawn over il by Muckie
Ingram and no complaint made, As

others, some peoples words and actions
'lilVei'i'onsideral.ly. ll has been noticed
here by miners and Others thai when
ever "4Jrospector" writes to (be Vernon News ii is about nothing bul

OKANAOAN   ilil'NK'll'AI.ITY   QUESTION,
To the editor of The Advance:
Sill -As Ihe Advanoe is widely road
ill White Valley, and as the notes and
letters whicli havo recently appeared
in its columns regarding the above
(|i,i,slion might loud people here and
elsewhere lo believe that there is nn
feeling iii the district In favor of tho
movement, you will permit me to make
a few remarks showing that, notwithstanding tho letter of "Antl," in your
issue of the 171 h Inst,, and the one
sidedness of the notes of your correspondent, llinre is a sli'ongnnil growing
feeling in favor of Incorporation.
At the meeting bold at Lllinhy to
consider the question, the opposition
tn lite inurement was nut based (as
"Anti" vainly endeavors to prove)'On
the merits or demerits of Ibe question,
One or two individuals prejudiced the
minds of the people by constantly asserting that fiiu (natter was mooted by
a few of the "' big bugs' down at Vernon" and that if a municipality was
formed they (Ibe bugs) would control
matters antl raise the taxes on tho
poorer ranchers and reduce them on
their ranches. I appeal to t|ie chairman of the meeting if thu above was
not a strung factor iu the rendering of
the decision. Tlicii there was the
political demagog present, who, in
fiery declamation denounced the nnive-
mciit. Mr. Price Ellison was quoted
as saying (anil he is reported in the
News to have said so) in regard to a
.similar case, " if you return, tlie Chief
Commissioner of Latin's and Works it is
no inducement ft,ryouln seek inooi'porn-
t .on." In the light of election day, the
mending nf such a sentence is evident,
and an endeavor to make capital out of
it here was made, '! Anti" truly represents a number of those present when
tic writes •' It cannot be proven to us
that it would be a benefit,, &c," Thai's
just it. You can't prove anything to a
liiiin who won't accept proof. Letters
were read at the mod big whicli demon •
started that a municipality is an improvement lo a district. The letter
from Reeve Graham was a frank and
candid opinion on the subject, anil the
man is above being suspected to deceive or lend astray. With Ibe trunk
roads sliil undergoverii'l'nent control, a
a municipality could far better tell
where aud what roads, bridges, &e,„
to do, nnil would admittedly lie able to
do them niiic|t cheaper than a concern
from Viol oi'ia, working through a
number of individuals. There might
bo better satisfaction given than now,
when, no sooner a road is made by the
Government, than all ibe settlers are
dissatisfied with it, and when roads arc,
changed at the caprice of one or two
individuals to I be discomfort of one or
two dozen,, With such direct over-
siglil, such saving in work, such direct
ciiiilroi over the work, laxes, and affairs generally, it is evident to anyone
free from prejudice and bigotry, that a
municipality is a distinct step forward
iu the'inarch of progress. Of course
"Anti"should not forgot that this is
election year when bo speaks of appropriations; it might explain some tilings,
lint. I am persuaded that a municipality could un as much work and to more
advantage with the amount of taxes
raised here, as Ibe Government is doing ou the average year. Let "Anti"
prnve otherwise. I do not think there
is anything calling fur sarcasm or reproach in lb'1 borrowing of $500 by the
Spaliumclieen Council. Does "Anti"
know that the Government borrowed
$1,000,000 lately and used $210,000 of it
for carrying on the work nf the country, and the loan won't be paid In three
months either;-' 1 apologise fur taking
up so much of your space. Yours, fa„

A TALE WITH" A JttUUL,
To the editor of Till'. AiiVANiiB:
Hut -The siege of Paris furnished the
foundation for many a strange story,
but none more singular than the manner in which a Frenchman and bis dog
pulled through Ihe last few days of the
siege, Having devoured everything iu
sight, nothing remained bul to kill and
eat the dog. This il. seemed Cruel to tin
for the man loved his dog very much,
AfteMlesitatiug therefor for som,^
time, an inspiration came lo liini
whereby both himself and bis dug
might be saved. ! And to this end oacfi
day saw the dog minus one joint of its
tall, off which tne man ale the meat
giving the bone t'd the dog. Now Sir,
it seems to mo.' that a moral "iiu bo
pointed from this story to tho two contesting parties in the provincial'i'lection
now taking place in this riding. The
govcrniiH el iparty by organizing large
' tifliii'liliiil connuillii':: nil! cutting
oil'joint after joint of till'' opposition
tall, eating the meat and leaving the
bone lo the tin;;, This is generous on
the part of th$ government parly as
the bone obviously belongs to Ibe opposition, the opposition being Hie parly
baying the bond to, pick, ai.nl hereon
hangs no tail, for if the opposition
party do nol become innri' alivo, at the
hill and of the contest they will find
their Influence greatly citr-f-tilled,
Voitis truly, Tailings,
