P, MeCuddy and family nre living on their pre-emption on Ten- Mile creek. A building is being pul up nn it. which will bi' ll half-way house in Camp McKinney, There is every prospect »f n lively placer excit incut along the Siniilka- ineen above Oro Ibis year, as the high wilier has considerably changed the channel and formed new bars, We regret to slulc that Mr. ,Tns. Schubert is very unwell, having caught a severe cold while at the road camp near ('amp McKinney, He passed through Fairview on his way tu Vornon last Monday. Settlers who wish to Iind out where vacant public lands lie in the Kettle River district would do well to secure one. of tho maps now being got out by Messrs. Coryell A' Burnynat, Vernon, They show exactly what land is sliil vacant for pre-emption, All parties who Intend sending exhibits of fruit, farm produce or mineral from the Lower Oknniigiin or Kettle River to the fall show at Vernon, ure requested to inform Mr. W. It. Norris, Midway, Kettle River, who will collect an exhibit of of the same, The Okanagan Outlnng is ngniii being published at Conconully. This shows an amount of grit nnd perseverance in Editor Thompson which should living him good luck sonic day. If the peopleof the Okanogan county don't help out such a mail they ought to. In uur last issue the election returns fi'i'iu While Valley, Okanagan und Kelowna, assent down tons from Vernon, were incorrest, The following wore lin' actual results, White Valley, Vernon tl, Graham 17; Okanagan, 12-10; Kelowna, 11-20, making Mr. Graham's majority Ll and uot 11. There i.s probably no section of the southern interior about which so comparatively little is known iis the country up the main Kettle river, north of Rock creek to Mounshee' Only a few prospectors havu been through all thu way, ami linvo tiiken small pay in placer out of ihe tributaries, The entire country has nt nt best been very roughly passed over nnd the actual resources of Ibe district nre almost un" known. There is no telling what they may turn out to bo in eoursu of time, li is not many years .since tho Slocan region in Kootenay wns considered no bettor than a wilderness, Gam]) Fairview is now dull. Parties lll!Ucqillllut.C(l with Ihe reasons why such Is Ihe case are liable In argue thai It Is because "tho oro is no good," and slulc thai it i.s "only another 13, G, camp Ibal. has turned out lo lie a lizzie," lliiil "there are no paying mines in the province" etc, People who have Uio least local knowledge always make these sweeping assertions, Every expert and practical mining man, however, who has examined anil knows the ciiiup is also acquainted with the principal reasons of the present state of affairs, Without going into long explanations which would doubtless be misunderstood by the ordinary public, who look more to effect than cause, wc may say Ihal what mines iu Ibe camp that have been handled hy practical mining men have paid good dividends, thai the general mn of me is low grade and will havu to be handled on a much more extensive scale to yield a profit, Ilinl one of Ihe besl properties wns involved In litigation, nml that the balance of thu claims arc in the hands of poor men who have neither the capital to purchase n mill nor can afford to pay a high price for crushing, li can also be safely stated that there Is not n developed mine in the camp, anil Hint sonic of i be besl ore 1ms been struck quite recently, Wo firmly believe lh.it sonic day the Fairview mines will make n name for themselves—when tlie uniform opinions of cxpet'ls of any repute nre carried out and Ilie ore is handled by extensive plants and men who are mining men hy profession, Mr, Shei'inghain and bride piuwed |through In Kettle river last, week, The Aiianck extends ils best wishes. His Excellency Lord Aberdeen, who opened the Ill's! show of Ibe (1. k S. agricultural society, has been requested lo open Ibis year's exhibition nt Vernon oil Ocliibel' II. Tlio towns of Three Forks nnd Wul- son. in Ihe Slocmi, have been coin- pletely wiped out hy forest Hres, The residents of the latter place escaped by inking refuge 111 the tunnels. Mr. ,Siimi|is, who fur some time past has been working near Fairview, left on Monday for Vornon, en route to the country north of the Keltic river bar and north-east of Monashee, which ho intends Io prospect, with Mr. Dun McAulle, He states that color is to lie found hi all the small creeks iu Unit region where ho has prospected before, anil has hopes of coining across something good in the. placer line this trip. For years past there has been talk of putting up local telephone lines in the Okanagan—from Vernon to Kelowna, etc. There i.s little doubt that a telephone from Vernon and Ibe Mission valley to Kettle river would help considerably to draw Ihe trade of that district up north, There ought to lie no necessity to go to Ibe coast for the necessary capital, Surely n distinctly district enterprise such ns this would he can be handled nt home, Messrs, 11. Boeing and 11. Rose, who have the contract for the bridge across the river ut Okanagan Fulls, com. inonced work on thai structure lust week. It is being built right over the fulls When Ibis bridge nnd ihe rock work on Vusscnu lake are cunpletedi through travel between Gamp McKinney aiid Okanagnn Falls will be possible, and Ihe chances are that considerable concentrating on' will he shipped via the ('. I1. II. lo Tacoma, If the post office inspector from Vic. toriacould manage to leave Ibe "sad city hy I hi'sen" lorn short trip through the Okuniignn nnd Kettle river, bo would Iind plenty of matters to fully occupy his attention, We are informed thai he is badly needed up north. He is wanted ten limes us much down south. There is no money order office below Kelowna, (',iiii)i McKinney lias no post office. Kettle river has only a weekly mail, n post, office is needed at Boundary Falls and also at Grand Forks. The through mail route from Penticton to Marcus will also have to he nrrilliged ns soon ns the new road is completed. .Mr. Fletcher would Iind the country and means of travel veiy different to what they were when lie visited Camp McKinney in Ihe days of its early boom, .According In a dispatch lo the Colonist of July 2:t, "Mr. Mara has been advised by the Customs thai free entry will lie allowed Ihe Slocan Milling Co. for a concentrating plant of one hundred Ions capacity which Hint company intend erecting between New Denver nnil Three Forks." II appears from Ibis thnl flee entry will he allowed into Kootenay of mining machinery nol manufactured in Canada, Why, however, should there be ono customs law fur Kootenay nnd another for Yillef How isii that duly .has bad lo be paid on every mill or plant brought Into ihe southern Okanagaii? Mr. Mara bus evidently sufficient influence at Ottawa to get the Customs Department to put ii liberal Interpretation on th' nil when il affects n district in which he Is Interested., ll is a pity he does nol Interest himself also in his constituents in thu Lower Okanagan nnd Kettle River, ► •. CORRESPONDENCE, ♦ A G.mn Suggestion, To the editor of Till! ADVANCE! Sin The Okanagnn and Spiilltim. (•been Agricultural Society, soon after ii was formed, held a meeting nl Vernon und discussed Ihe "wheat (pies, lion," namely the possibility of ship* ping wheat (barley and oats) direct to the coast markets, with a view to raising the price In be actually obtained hy the producer, It was then considered that the object of the society was not merely to bold annual exhibitions of produce, lint In discuss matters of importance to local agriculturists and to puss resolutions embodying the views of its members, Such being the case, .surely llioiill-iuipurlnnfiunller of freight rates ought to he taken tip by the society and thoroughly discussed, so that, the views of the agricultural population of this district on this question enn be laid iu a concise inaiinop before the Government and the C.P.R, Any resolution passed by such a tbor- ougbly representative body as the 0.

The Government wns called upon lo furnish tbe necessary funds to place tbe road in good condition throughout its I'liliru length which they did, and the Bottlers, Inking all l.|ih|gs into consideration, came to the understanding that $2 per day would be a sufficient remuneration for the labor, and it was at their own request that this was the wage given. No outsii]e help wns hired, so that no injustice was done to laborers generally. The road is one principally made usi; in" by the settlers, who were in some instances paid for work thai sin old have been done by themselves, They, at least, have cause (.o he satisfied with tlie pay they have received. ) ► .., We beg tii piilify our subscribers [bat we will he obliged to suspend pull, iientinn for one week while our plant is being removed lo Midway. We regret having to do so, hul. as the road ou Ihe British side is far from being completed, and we will have lo take u circuitous route round by Ihe States ibis will he unavoidable. We lake this ppportunity of Informing lliu public generally that we have by no means lost faith in Fairview, bul expect Hint flint the camp has bright i hues in store for it, In Kettlo River, however, wc hope to have a better ticld fur a paying paper, and to be better able to chronicle the development of the mineral resources of tlie lower country at large. On investigation wo Iind that the de- jay in correspondence not reaching us from Kelowna was in no way the fault pf the post master at that point, Wo are glad to be able to make this state- pient, as Mr. Donald was in no way to |)lame, and our remarks in our lust issue were liable to create, Hint impression.

Qld and new settlers on Anarchist fiiouii.tain are at present busily engaged jn putting ;ip a large supply of bunch grass hay for next winter's feed. Jf jiature did not give to this section lots ,of meadows she wns at least lavish in her supply of bunch grass, and the settlers are wise enough to avail themselves of jt. In some spots nearly a ton to the acre can be procured. In all probability prowling around some of tlie reserves is an Indian from lOolville valley, whom the sheriffs on (die other side would be glad to make acquaintance with. We are sorry we are not able to furnish a description of this man, as he is wanted for taking fhe life of bis mother-in-law near Colville about, a week ago by cutting her jlojyn with au axe. After committing Ihe crime be went, onto |,)ie range i|jid stealing two horses made olf in this direction. When lastscen by tlie sheriffs he was making bis way over the mountains and would cross the line in tlie direction of Camp McKinpey. Nov, that the election, is over, it will |ie jflferesting to note how many of the Government supporters will favor the move made for some time past to form the Okanagan and Mission valley municipalities. The chief argument used by these gentlemen was "elect the Chief Couuiiissioiiur agajn and there will lie no necessity for you to form municipalities," That gentleman not having teen elected it naturally follows from their own argument Hint it is now necessary to form municipalities, The very ppuplu who before the election were most against, the movement are the most likely, or should be if they /ire consistent, to favor the movement. THE ADVANCE has received a reply from the post otllce inspector, Victoria, to tlie. effect that the petition for the establishment of a post office at Boundary Falls has been forwnrded on to the Postmaster Goneral at Ottawa, Air. Fletcher adds in his letter ; " I niay say thai, as we havo already a post office called Boundary Creek, and as there are several names in which the name "Boundary" occurs, thai some other name than that now submitted for tlie proposed, new post otllce should be selected; bi|t this is a matter which can no doubt bo dealt witli by j,|ie petitioners themselves." It is evident, therefore, that a new name for fhe post office will have to be chosen. ►»-. ■ AETER THE FIGHT. (By Missionary.) The battle has now been decided, and jn the face of the heaviest odds that could be brought against a candidate, namely, the influences of power, place find of patronage, Mr. Donald Graham has triumphantly upheld the cause of pure governtnont on sound economic principles, and lias shown the voters of the Island that he can secure a majority in a Mainland constituency by other means than a selfish cry of ('ourselves flrul, and to the lowest, depths of plutonic darkness with all others," That the contest !ms lwen carried on with little Wtluiiiioss or bad, blood is something to be grateful for; audit Is also pleasant tqoqntemplatethe peace, in provincial politics at least, that will endure for the next four years. fly task as "Missionary" is now done until fresh occasion arises to en ter the political arena, ami I shnll m mora trouble the renders of tlie An Vance witli my polemic opinions; in; before I lay down my pen, 1 should like to call attention to one result to be deduced from our late electoral contest. Tlie fact is noticeable that In those parts of the riding of East Yale where there is no system of municipal government, Mr. Vernon polled bis heaviest vole, while in the twoi municipalities, that of Spallumcheen and thu city of Vernon, Mr. Graham I secured such a large vole as really to, decide the result. In oilier districts where Mr. Graham secured a majority, with the exception of Kelowna, where the feeling in fmor of local government is Btl'ong, bis figures us a rule were but slightly ahead of those of his opponent, What does this argue? Not Hint, those who ore opposed to thu organization of municipalities are all necessarily Government supporters, that Ibe Government itself uses Ibe power Hint the control of highways and bridges bestows in order to forward its own ends. When the power of administering their own local affairs passes Into the hands of the people, the little petty patronage possessed by the Government ceases, and they thus lose a great political lever. To exemplify the truth of this conclusion it is only necessary to point to the electoral result in the Eraser river valley, whicli is practically entirely under municipal governmnt. Not one single supporter of the Government wns returned I Whether this is an argument in favor of incorporation into local councils I leave to your readers to decide; but I think Ihe premises are clear enough, ond that it is evident that political fairness and the decision of elections on the real, and not on side issues, would be the outcome of the surrender of governing powers to district corporations. -™—t~*-t—.-.— Cricket at Kelowna.

Tlie former came out victorious, with a score of 12(1 against 87 for Hie visiting team. The weather wns all that could lie desired, although very warm, but the hunt seemed to lie a secondary consideration. A large number of ladies were present, many of them from Vernon, and all seemed to have spent a jolly day. There were two innings played.

(From our own oorrospondout.) The residents of the camp are anxiously awaiting the advent of Hie new road, nnd so intense is Ibe desire for it, that many expressions of Impatience may be beard at its slow approach, but time, patience and plenty of money will no doubt accomplish the leal some day. The poorest of the ore taken from the Cariboo is only now being milled, as the richer rock carries sulphurets, and is lining set aside anil sacked up ready for shipment to Okanagan Falls, thence to Tacoma to the smelter, This will be shipped together witli the concentrates, and averages from $50 to $500 per ton. Some of the best rock ever taken out of any mine in B. C. may bo seen in the ore bunkers of the Cariboo mine at Hie present time. As soon as the road reaches the camp Mr. II. Cameron intends shipping ore to Tacoma from his mine the Fontenoy (the old Carbonate claim), As this is rich ore it will no doubt help to establish the fact, to the benefit of the people up north 'I'l'l *' the const, Hint mines nre not only to be found, hi|t aro actually in existence in this purl, of British Columblo. ' Mr. R. G. Sidley has started some men tn work developing bis mine, the Anarchist, The present shaft on Hie inine i.s down 1(1 teet in good rock, but this will nol do, nnd a further depth will be reached before long. A post office Is badly needed at Ihis point, and a mail service at least twice a week, and this without delay. Midway Nctos. (From our own correspondent.) Two or three more families will soon locate at Ibis place. There is not nn idle man to be seen around town at present, which is/isign Hint things are not standing still. Mr. 1!. Ocbsner of Vernon has let the contract for a building and intends starting a bottling works here. Three other buildings are to be started at once, also in the near future a school bouse, which is badly needed. Steps nre lining taken to have the post office addross of Boundary Creek changed to Midway. This will avoid a good (l.-iiI of confusion iu I be future.

(From our own correspondent,) Vernon, July 110.—The election excitement, is ov,)r, and with the exception of a few sore heads (who say " you'll be sorry") business bus settled down to ils usual monotony.

Quite a number of friends saw the late member oil on Friday's train, when the curtain was rung down on the last act of the East Yale political drama. Your correspondent from Okanagan Mission writing on the agricultural buildings, misunderstands the situation, The society is without available funds, and could only borrow two- thirds on the property if they decided lo build themselves, which was impossible. Mr. _ Mogaw slated $2HU would be required annually to make interest and sinking fund. It is the general impression that we did Ibe best we could. If Mr. Htitclieson makes money be cannot do it without adding to Hie popularity of the society, The race track is about completed and when the agricultural buildings arc finished and the grounds fenced iu we can boast of the most complete agricultural buildings and race track in the interior.

Editor—Would you be kind enough to allow me space in tbe columns of your paper iu order to defend myself against some two cent shows that Mr. Piihuerston is trying to circulate, 11, appears that his principal grievance conies from u letter that 1 sent to tbe Chief Commissioner of- Lands und Works ut tho time Ibal I forwarded a petition from tlm miners! of tins purl of tliu district asking to have the new office established at Boundary Falls, The above mined gentleman seems to be" trying to make capital out of nu assei'tion liutl I made in Ibe same letter, claiming that I snld I had no use! for Americans, Now, as near as I can remember, I made use of tho following remark, Ihal if Hie merits of both were on an equal fooling that I thought I was entitled to a little more consideration than a California or Wnsliiiigl ni lownsile boomer, and especially those that were left when lb" boom went down. But I make this proposition lo ibe gentleman, that I am willing ilinl be should obtain possession of tho said letter and have il published, and if I he publishers will nol. lake town lots or horses I mn willing lo settle the bill. I would like to ask Ibe uauilleinan a few quest ions. I presume that be will have no objections to answering Ilie sainet . 1st. For whom i.s a mining recorder's office established? For miners, farmers or people travelling through the country thai have nol one iota of an Interest In the country? 2nd. Does he think that there Is any principle about a mail Hint will gel oil his high horse because a man refuses to glgn a petition that he is packing around which is contrary in its views to one he bus already signed and make use of the remark that because I am an American you nre down on tne? 3rd, Docs he think it right between man and man Hint because he is trying to make a side of leather out of a shoestring lo try to make people go to bis burgh when nil the men available with the exception of his two partners in Ibe several camps have signed a1 petition to have the office located nt Boundary Falls, making a difference In distance In favor of the latter place of from one mile to'nine miles, which is quite all object to 11 prospector? The snipe genfleniiin has circulated a petition also to have the suid office located nl Midway nnd I think iti would be only fair nnd just to have il Inserted iu the columns of our local paper If it is HI, lo present to the proper authorities he bud ought to have no objections of the public looking al it. I will make the same proposition asrogards my letter which Is causing so much trouble, The fact of the matter is it is Ihe said petition Hint i.s hurting his feelings nnd not the letter.

Ever,)' observing man sops tlio inevitable result. But by "blending the useful with tin beniillful in planting," wo can kill two birds with the one stone, As Edwin ('. Powell, of .' c\v York, remarks in the Auioriciiu Agriculturist, nut growing m a commercial industry receives two littii attention, ami the greater part of tin chestnuts, hickory nuts, pecans am! hazelnuts consumed ii) this country are picked from trees that have grown n:i turally. No attention has bean given to planting them, nor to tlio propagation of good varieties, much lees to their improvement ur the origination of new ami better ones. Mure attention could profitably bo paid to nut-growing, for mils are a ileiicious and wholesome article of food, miil will be usoil inoro largely in the supply increases. Thu trees, nflcr being once established, require no cure, have no enemies worth mentioning', and the produot is clear gain. Many old pastures, hillsides, rocky knolls, nud out-of-the way places could be tlovoteil to the production of nuts with ease, profit and uilvitutage, Nut trees have a long, strong tap-root, which makes them more difficult to transplant than fruit and ornamental trees. It is hotter tu transplant the trees from the nursery rows when they are a year old than to leave tliom longer. Hickory trees, chestnuts nnd others should be trained in tho sumo way for convenience in gathering the nuts. The hickory trees can stand live, or even tcu fact closer-about twenty by twenty— than the chestnuts, because of their upright habit of growth But little ntten- Ho;; las been paid to propagating good varieties, or (rum extra fine trees, nnd mainly because it is commonly supposed that it is impossible to bud or graft. The fail'.;:•' a, ill this lino have been from lining tiie work ut the wiong season.

The viiiioar K:\ift is the propor one to us", 1 ut il bel'.er one still is ,t coiuiiiiic tion between grafting ami building. The In. s uu nut trees, hickories espcci ally, are very large and prominent, nnd fur this reason and also because of linnl nuss oi tlio wood, the slowness of growth, nml the toughness of the bark, spring grafting i.s rarely successful.
