But ull this time disease had gradually entwined its tendrils around the ever weakening form of the patient. Even more sudden than ho temporarily recovered, he was again taken worse. Again medical attendance was sought -aud a trained nurse remained constantly in attendance; every- thing that was possible for human aid to accomplish was performed, but all to no purpose, death had marked him font victim and at a little after seven o'clock ou Wednesday evening he passed away in the presence of his father and mother, news nothaving reached his brother, at Oakland, California, in time to admit of hit* being present, even for the burial, j Theodore Gunderson was a ulucd resident of Midway, and his death at the early age of twenty seven was deeply felt by all who had the pleasure of his acquaintance. His quiet manner and exemplary habits won for him the respect and esteem of all. He was possessed of an irreproachable character that had a good influence upon those whom he came in contact with, so that in his demise the community loses one of its most valued citizens, aud the parents a dutiful sou The deceased came to Midway about four years ago and has been a resident of this place ever since, save for a time last year when he was absent for a few months employcdon the International boundary lino survey in the neighborhood of Sheep Croek, und his services in this connection were so valued that he would have been similarly engaged this year had not, Providence ordained otherwise. Tho funeral was held from the family residence on Friday morning at 10 o'clock, and was very largely attended. Rev. A. 8. Thompson ably conducted impressive services both at the house and the grave, The casket was hidden beneath the prof tission of floral offerings contributed by the many friends of the deceased. The pall-bearers were: C. J. Lundy, J.H. Bush.D. G. Mills, H. H. Pannell, F. Kroupa and C. M. Crouse. The bereaved relatives have the heartfelt smypathy of the entire community in their sad bereavement, freight on the bullion from tht time it leaves the smelter until it is ready for sale iu the market at New York. If the ore eai, be handled and all costs inei with a total expenditure of $3.50 for each ton, therefore, it will represent only a 7 cents per pound cost for copper, . The company now has four furnaces and is installing two more. The six will Iki capable of treating 2000 to 2500 tons of ore per day. With copper sel ling at 24 1-2 cents per pound there should be u net profit of $1.80 per ton on the ore treated, or at the rate of $1,296,000 to $1,(520,000 initially, equivalent to bettor than a dollar por share on the company's outstanding stock. At present smelting operations aro curtailed by inability to get an adequate supply of coke. This trouble will lie remedied shortly. Coke costs $0.50 per ton at the smelter. Miners are paid $8:50 per day and surface men $!1. It is the plan of the management to continue smelter operations as at present until thc matter of costs has been fully demonstrated, after which the question of doubling the number of furnaces will receive attention. In the meantime additional exploratory work is being done. It is declared that the estimate of 20,000,000 tons of ore in sight is vory conservative, It is based on a measurement of 2500 feet in length and a depth of 300 feet, While a shaft is already down 100 feet deeper, and in ore all the way. John Stanton believes the Granby will make its copper at a cost of 7 cents per pound. >»« Away on a Pleasure Trip, Last Friday night, as the result of an executive meeting, Charles Wilson, K. C, president of tho council, and R. F. Green, minister of mines left for Ottawa, where they will lay before the Dominion government some matter affecting the province. The new government is apparency to follow in the lead of former ministries of the province. It has dispatched its delegation to the federal capital preparatory to getting out an election platform. The delegates will have among the principal features of their business the immigration question. Fearing that the Dominion may have in view the disallowance of acts passed at the last sitting of the legis lature dealing with tlte subject, of oriental innuigratiraii the ministers will press upon tho government the necessity for strict laws dealing with this question. The dolegat.es, it is said, will urge upon the Dominion government that the Japanese governnient is apparently not. carrying out the agtvomoufc to restrain immigration of .Japanese to Canada, which was used as un argument against allowing legislation aimed at Jup- inese immigrants. The delegates claim to be around with information on this point anil will miiko vigorous protest against any proposed disallowance. The Westminster bridge will, as usual, be a question for conference, and fho silver-lead question will also be br.o)ig|i.y up. The special mission of tho minister of mines is undoubtedly iu connection jyith tlio industry and in this way it is hoped that a mining policy may bo evolved which will materially assist that minister in the upper country. Bill No. 1(J will also bo dealt with, and an uil'ort will be made to insure the bill being allowed and the action of the iiouse in connection with blocks 1598 and 15!W endors.xl by the Dominion government so that these tracts inay bo kept out of the hands of the C. P. R. An Ottawa despatch states that a Liberal representative from British Columbia, when asked about tho mission of Messrs. Wijson and Green to Ottawa, said they wore no doubt taking a holiday trip St the expense of the proviuce. Incidentally they would try and find aery to use at tlio election. The represontatioi.'s from British Columbia in the Doniinion parliament are fully informed on till questions relating to their province, and at the present moment have them well in hand. The prentice bauds of Messrs. Wilson and Green will only injure the matter, but probably the visit to Ottawa is only a blind to cover up negotiations to be carried on in another city for funds to run the election. In any case tbey are not travelling for their health. The Bounty on Lead. Oitawa, July 6.—Finance Minister Fielding to-day gave notice of regulations authorizing the payment of $5000.000 a year for 5 years by way of bounties to the lead producers of British Columbia, The terms of the resolutions areas follows: (1)—The governor in council may authorize the payment of a bounty of 75cents per hundred pounds of lead contained in lead bearing ores mined in Canada, such bounty to bo paid to the producer or vendor of such ones upon evidence that such ores havo been smelted in Canada, provided that the sum to be paid as such bounty shall not exceed five hundred thousand dollars in any fiscal year, Provided also that when it appears to the satisfaction of the minister charged with tho administration of this act that the standard price of pig lead in London, England, exceeds twelve pounds ten shillings sterling per ton of two thousand two hundred and forty pounds, such bounty shall lie reduced proportionately by the amount of such excess. . (2)—The payment of the said bounty may be made from time to time to the extent of sixty per cent of the full bounty authorized, subject to adjust- CdllllllUUll on jingo 4. • Published wookly al.

The true reason for the introduction of party liftea into pro provincial affairs is that we nre tired of coalition governments, and need party lines for better organization. Party lines, or not, we must preserve oni;; au,> tonomy. It must be the province first and the dominion second, where their interests clash. The conservatives, as we have said, desire to maintain existing institutions and customs. What portion of Turnerism, .SemlinCottonisin, DuuTiiiuir- ism or Priorisiu does premier McBride and his .goveroineni desire to preserve and keep intact? Wc cannot imagine anything except themselves and 'the old Tory gartg,that will certainty sink or swim with the McBride government. "On the oth er hand, the Liberal party favor change and reform in administration. Tliey''hiive- play eda most important-part in the governments o£ thq. older prov inces, and'still continue to do no. Let every elector ask himself, which party is likely to give 14s what we need so much, reform in the administration of provincial affairs, 'j irt.- Jiuild and operate smelters and refineries. No reasonable change should be made in the mining laws without full notice to all parties .interested,* giving full opportunity, >for discussion and criticism. 8. As the province can only advance by the 'settlement with in its borders of thrifty and prosperous-, citizens, and as Orientals never become citizens in any proper-sense of the word, we declare.it to be the duty of the government s to discourage Oriental immigration inlil employment by every nleans with iii its power, and we appeal to onr fellow liberals throughout the Dominion to aid us; in our efforts to protect ourselves against the ruinous competition of men'having a standard of decency and conifcji'timmsensoly below that of civilized peoples, and who shirk every duty and obligation of citzenship which the law will allow them to escape. 0.

Now that it has been decided to conduct provincial affairs on dominion party lines, it might be profitable to consider what principles tho two'leading parties advocate, and what have been thei* Jleadlilg.) poliniesi Tn the'past. nnd what they are at the present .time, „ A .coiisefyAT^ tive in politics is defined as one who desires to maintain existing institutions and custouis one who is opposed to- change, and has the disposition and tendency to preserve what is established. lt is easy to understand that conservatives desire to preserve intact .much thkt was advocat- edand carried into execution by Sir John A. MacDonald and other leaders; who controlled the dominion for about 25 years since confederation. They will find many liberals to agree with them iu this, and it is said, that Sir Wilfred Laurier has more than once expressed his appreciation of the states- manli:.e manner that Sir John A. MacDonald mot and solved the many difficulties that confronted him as leader of the government in the earlier yoars of the dominion. But these difficulties are not bofore us for solution to-day. They are at rest, and many of the leading statesman who had the settlement of these questions have passed away; and others, like Sir Charles Tupper and Hon. Geo. E. Foster, have fallen by the wayside, because they wore unable to grasp the new situation, to keep up with the procession. It should not be forgotten that the primary object of our decision to run affairs on dominion lines is not to preserve the principles of liberalism or conservatism or the liberal or conservative party.. The liberals in the dominion are safely entrenched 11 power for the present, and the conservatives under Mr. R. L Borden make a very respectable opposition 3S •A. THE LIBERAL PLATFORM. The liberal platform, tm adopted at. the provincial liberal convention held nt Vancouver on Februafy ,7th, 1902;' is as follows: ■'*"■' ".'" •'■ •'• 1.
