Mayne Baltimore In Spokesman-Review.) Within the last year Kettle river has been brought into much prominence through two or three projected lines of railroad. The motu important line of the roads, to Spokane, i�� the one to be constructed by the Great Nortern, commencing at the mouth of that stream and following the mountain valley to Cascade, thence on to Republic. Another road u projected by the Grand Forks Railroad company, from that place over to Republic. For some distance this road will follow the course of the Kettle river. A third road is projected which, leaving Grand Forks, will follow up the west fork of that stream, and for some distance tapping the extensive Beaverton country, running nortwestwr.rd, will strike Okanogan river and effect n connection with a branch of the Canadian Puciflo. Kettle river finds its sources a long distance north of the boundary line���away up in the fastnesses of Monishee mountains. Some of the t-nialler tributaries of the main west fork reach into the Beaverton country. The head waters are fully 35 miles north of Rock creek, which is one of the principal tributaries, and is not far from Midway. The main (or larger) stream rises far to the northwest of Grand Forks. This is called the west fork. Two streams with widely divergent sources unite which form this main stream. One of these is called the east fork and the other the west fork. This main fork crosses the boundary line in one place and after serpentine me- anderings recrnsses into British Columbia. After both streams unite below Grand Forks, the river flown southward and empties into the Columbia about a mile-and-a-half below the little railroad town of Marcus, which stands on the south side of the latter stream. The other branch of Kettle river is known as the North Fork. As in the case of the west branch, two small streams iinite which form the main stream. One is known as the east and tbe other the west fork. Thus, in rea li- ty the stream above the grand forks has four forks or sources. Below the grand forks there are a few tributaries, the principal one being Christina creek at Cascade, which gives vent to the waters of Christina lake one-and-one-half miles north of that gateway town. Grand Forks stand two miles north of the international boundary. Twelve miles below is located Cascade. To this point the Great Northern surveyors have located a line from the mouth of Kettle river, a distance of about 30 miles. More than two weeks ago (now about four weeks) the line between Cascade and Midway was located by the surveyors. This part of the line follows the main west fork of Kettle river for a considerable distance. Between Cascade and the mouth of Kettle river the valley narrows down. At Cascade the stream passes through a rocky gorge and plunges over an abrupi precipice, making a beautiful and picturesque cascade, not only this but it constitute) one of the most magnificent waterpowers in this province, and which is being developed by capitalists for the purpose of supplying electric light and power to the whole Boundary country. Northwest of Grand Forks there is considerable go d agricultural land. The country iB generally high and rolling, and the soil dark and furtile. There are a number of good farms and some fine fruit ranches in that region. Between Grand Forks and Cascade are also excellent farming lands, and many ranches are scattered through the country. There is a good wagon road leading from Grand Forks down to the mouth of Kettle river through Cascade, which is traveled a great deal. It is the principal outlet in getting down to the Columbia at Marcus and other points. As. yet there are comparatively few white settlers between the Columbia and Cascade. Indians and halfbloods compose the principal population. Some 12 miles above the mouth of the stream iB quite a settlement of eemidomesticated si- washes 'and mixed bloods. No extensive efforts are made to cultivate the soil. At wide intervals are email ranches where white people live. At Hall's Ferry and at other points along the valley are places where traders and teamsters can remain over night and be comfortably entertained. Throughout its length the valley is hedged in by mountains which, in placet-, tower many hundreds of feet and are rocky and precipitous. These mountains contain more or less mineral wealth. Hundreds of claims are staked out all along the valley and the mountains. Tbe majority of these claims have never heen worked. Very little if any ore has been hauled out. Capital to operate these locations and want of railroad facilities to transport the output have hitherto been the two great obstacles. Concerning the projected railroad the engineers have found a feasible route from the mouth up to Cascade. It will be necessary to cross the stream several times, but the matter of bridging will not be serious, or involve heavy costs, as the river is not wide. The question of grades, it is claimed, is not a difficult one to overcome. In many places the mountains press down upon the stream, and it will be necessary to make some heavy side- cuts through rocky walls. There will be some fills and considerable trestle work. However, It is asserted on good authority, that the average cost of the construction of the 30 miles of road up Kettle river will not be unusually heavy. That the road which is to give Spokane direct railway connection with the new Eldorado will be built along the valley of the Kettle river is a foregone conclusion. But the less important question of when the Columbia will be bridged, is still held in abeyance. Whether the stream will be spanned at the Kettle Falls or above at the little town of Marcus haa not yet been made public by the railway official*. Contentment begets healthfulneas. GOVERNMENT SHOULD HELP FARMERS All Wei!tl.:Come�� Iron the Sell���Agrlcafom Is tbe Foundation ot Tree Prosperity. Victoria Times: It is impossible to write about agriculture without incurring the risk of writing platitudes. The newspaper editor realizes that on this subject he is scarcely likely to write things that are both good and new. Specialists in every branch of agricultural pursuits have well nigh exhausted the field of inquiry and discussion. An occupation that is co-existent with our race��� for Adam was placed in Eden "to dress it and keep it"���is hardly likely to have escaped the most searching investigation by competent experts. The Times is not desiriout, of offering advice to the practical agriculturalist. The management of dairying, cereal-producing, fruit or poultry raising, presents a tempting field for the theorist, but���our readers will commend us for our forbearance���we firmly decline the bait. It is necessary to point out again and again thut the production of farm produce, cattle, sheep, hogs, butter, cheese, poultry, cereal*, is not keeping pace with the growth of the population in this province1*. Manufactures have increased, commerce has grown, shipping has expanded, mining has made gigantic strides, railways are multiplying, but agriculture has moved very slowly. Yet the most necessary, permanent and useful employment of any country is that of farming. When all other sources of income fail, that of food producing remains. The department of agriculture should rightly be considered one of the most important of the administration. Why, then, is farming at a standstill; or, to be more accurate, why does it move so slowly ? Here, at the very doors of the farmer, is a market that will consume every pound of grain that can be rair-ed, and all sundry products of the farm. True it is, there may he an over production of certain classes of fruit, but this is only apparent, because we have no factories to dry or prepare evaporated fruits. It must be admited and is equally true of all governments, tbat too little encouragement is given to the farmer. Railways are subsidised, mining has its great chances of gain, shipping receives government help, manufactures are often bonus- ed, but whoever proposes to bonus*, subsidize or aid the farmer ? Consider the great difficulties a settler on the land meets with in the inception of his enterprise. His land is heavily timbered, or intersected with rocks, or surrounded with swamps, or is far distant from railways or roads: To clear timbered land will cost from $40 to $100 per acre. To drain marshy or swampy land will cost a like- amount. Much of his farm is unproductive. The government looks askance upon his request for roads, not knowing whether the few struggling settlers will remain in the district or abandon tbe ranches to their primeval solitude. Agricultural implements are very expen- THE CASCADE RECORD JUNE 8,1901 sive. To stock a farm of one hun dred acres takes quite a respectable sum of money. In order to fairly start upon a quarter section of wild land near Victoria it is necessary that the farmer have a capital of from (3,000 to $5,000, and this needs to be most economically and judiciously expended. Is it not reasonable, therefore, that the government should do something to help the farmers ? Is it not just that agriculture should .receive the fostering care of the state? Ought not the Minister of Agriculture to lay before the Legislature a policy that shall give in the original industry an impetus that shall be of lasttng benefit to 'the Province, and presuming he ���has not collected sufficient data to -do this at the coming session, is it not desirable that he should at ���once take steps to make himself practically acquainted with the requirements and difficulties of the average farmer ? The Times respectfully urges the Dunsmuir government to make diligent enquiry into the whole subject, fearing neither the criticism of the economic alarmist on the one band nor the effusive support of 4he socialistic on the other, but looking only to the development of a source of wealth that is destined to have a great future in this province if properly assisted and conserved. The appointment of a Royal Commission is often an. easy way to shelve responsibility, yet it may he possible that the appointment of a thoroughly competent and independent commission might bring about tbe solution of many of the problems we have hinted at in the lines above written.

Nelson is blessed with the benign presence and influence of about 400 slant-eyed copper colored citizens, whose society must be endured "for Imperial reasons.' What has happened to "Our Billy" who was chosen last year to represent our interests at Ottawa? Did he never reach the parliament halls, or, arriving there, was he ossified by the august austerity of parliamentary airs? Oh, Billy 1 Where are you? If in the land of the living, speak up! Have we lost an M. P. ? If so, we��want to know it. We are reminded that our statement last week relative to railway bonuses overreached a little. I,t is stated that the C. P. R. was favored with a $92,- 000 bonus for its Lardeau branch. There can be no doubt but such a bonus���a re-vote, it is said���was granted if applied for by that monopoly, as it seems it can have anything it may desire from the Dominion government. The discouraging feature of the railway situation in British Columbia to-day, especially in the Boundary, Similkameen and Okanagan sections���the most promising portions of the prov- vince���is that both the local and federal governments seem determined to favor the long- haul sinch, by denyiug aid and privileges to all proposed competitive enterprises. This is a condition unpleasant to contemplate, when it is remembered that Sir Van Home, with the enormous profits wrung from the Canadian people by the aid of their governments, is seeking to invest the surplus so obtained in railway schemes to develope the island of Cuba, a foreign territory. The Victoria Colonist is doing a good service to the whole province in its efforts to enlighten its readers by a series of articles relative to the vast territory comprised within the boundaries of this province, its inexhaustible resources and opportunities for development, The articles are entitled "British Coulumbia,'1 and containing as they do in narrative form valuable geographical, historical and statistical information, and coming as they do from a conservative and reliable source, are highly meritorious, notwithstanding Mr. H. Hirshchell-Cohen's vigorous dissent. They should be carefully perused by all having the opportunity to do so. Thos. Ir. Johnson, ex-United States Representative, now the Mayor of Cleveland, Ohio, and frequently announced as the next probable candidate of the Democratic party for president is pronounced by Munsey's magazine as being the most paradoxical man in the United States. Though a multi-millionaire he is an enthusiastic worker for Single Tax; a manufacturer of steel rails and an advocate for Free Trade; an owner of several street railways, yet a believer in municipal ownership of these lines. From a poor urchin selling newspapers for a livelihcod he has beoome rich, having amassed a fortune of from ten to twenty millions of dollars. He is an inventor of no mean ability, having invented the "Nickel-in-the-Slot" box for receiving car fares, an automatic switch, a car-fender, and a pattern of steel rails which has been almost universally adopted. Though an employer of 3000 men he has never had a strike. He conducts his affairs and makes his money under existing laws and conditions and as a matter of business, but advocates Free Trade, Single Tax and Municipal Ownership through principle, having the honesty, courage and sincerity of his convictions. Chime la C. P. R. Running Tim. On and after Monday next the C. P. R. passenger trains and mails will arrive at Cascade as follows: Going west; 8:23 p. m.; going east. 1.39. This is, we believe, the same regulation as was in vogue last year for the summer and fall months. The "Imperial Limited" will be put on the main line at the same time. Mr. and Mrs. D. O'Connor expect to leave for their old home in Winnipeg, on the return of F. E. Tebo, who is looked for to arrive today or Monday. Fatal State AccMent Near Camp McKinney. Information reached here Thursday that the mail stage running from Camp McKinney to Greenwood plunged into Jelly creek, four miles from McKinney, that morning. Driver Andrew Kirkland's neck was broken and he was instantly killed. Henry Nicholson, J P., and Mrs. Buners, both of Camp McKinney, were injured. Henry Black, of Portage la Prairie, another passenger, escaped without injury. The driver lost control of the powerful four-horse team while going down the steep pitch above the creek. They missed the bridge and horses and wagon plunged into the creek below. Kirkland's body and the injured passengers were taken back to McKinney.

Some very nice fish are now being brought in from Christina Lake. A newsy letter from Gladstone too lute for publication this week. Dick Durrow has found native copper nn his Cambria claim in Burnt Basin. In about two wet'ks work will begin in earnest on the Water Power company's enterprise here. 8. W. Bear is in Grand Forks lettering Ihe windows of the new qiiniterB of the Eastern Township bank. Rev. and Mrs. Ray, of Columbia, who have heen the guests of Mr. and Mrs. McFetridge and Mr. and Mrs. Coatee, returned home Tuesday. Dick Darrow and P. A. Munro have been engaged the past week doing assessment work on the hit- ter's claim in close proxmity to Gladstone station. Spring is lingering altogether too long in the lap of slimmer. Snow fulling on the near-by mountains in June is something unusual hereabouts, and to which the farmers take exception. As^near as we can get at the matter with our reportorial forceps we are inclined tn thii.k the pole-contract was Becured by theGenelles, in which case Cascade will get little profit out of it. The Tammany Mining company with headquarters at Rossland and good mineral properties in Burnt Basin, now claims to have $10,000 in its treasury, which will be applied to development work. Managing Direotor J. Roderick Rubertsnn, and Engineer Anderson took a trip over the pole line between this place and Phoenix this week previous to awarding the contract for the furnishing, of the poles to be used in carrying the wires. Owing to heavy rains on the mountains between Kettle Falls and Republic nearly all the freighting Is being done via Marcus and Cascade, Great Northern surveyors have about completed their wort at Marcus and active operations are looked for at any time. It is expected a cable transfer will be put in, perhaps the Bame one that was used at Northport by the old company._J Qeorfr McKufo Retards To Cascade. George McKugo, who left Cascade some eighteen months ago and went to South Africa as a member of the Strathcona Horse, returned here last Wednesday, hale and hearty, looking none the worse for his experiences in the stirring scenes on the veldts and kopjes of the Transvaal. He has some interesting reminiscences, which he relates to eager listeners. Says he was in several lively as well as deathly engagements, and the Boers are fierce fighters and stoic and sulky stayers. Mr. McKugo intends to remain here if he can find employment. Contract. Slfacd. It is reported that W. C. Morris and associates signed contracts in Spokane last Tuesday for work on the Republic-Grand Forks railway, ami it was then stated that work would'begin thereon the following day, and that a thousand men were to he set to work within a .month. This enterprise is thought by many to be backed hy the C. P. R., but this is emphatically denied at the Forks. Others say the affair is a bluff to cnerce ihe Great Northern to buy out the local promoters and immedately build the desired line, and yet, in the event of failure by the G. N. to act, the local company would undertake the work. However this may be, there is very little doubt but that a year hence a completed railway between the mouth of Kettle river and Republic via Cascade will be in active operation. Embark, la the Poultry Business. Tuesday Mr. Geo C Rose received by express from Mr. J. Onr- raher of Grand Forks a brace of; domestic birds, a rooster and ben ; of the Buff Cochin bantam strain Being unadvised of their coming lit! had not made provision for them, i so had to make temporary arrangements. From these confines tin buds soon made their escape, ami the service.! of the fleet-of-fuot citizens were called to aid Mr. Rose after his collapse in an effort to effect a capture of the miniature cackters. Upon reflection Mr. Rose remembered that several month." ago Mr. Carraher had threatened to forward these birds, to which he demurred then and there, but it seems the demurrer was overruled, and Mr. Rose is now in the poultry business on a miuiuture scale. The British America Corporation does Into Voluntary Liquidation. A London dispatch stales that the shareholders of the British America Corporuiit.n agreed to go into voluntary liquidation. The corporation was closely urliliuted with the London and Globe Finance Corporation, Ltd., whose suspension in December last caused so much excitement on the Stock Exchange. Lord Dufferin was a direotor of the British America as well as of the Luiiuon and Globe Corporation. As this was only a promoting concern und not a mine working institution, its collapse will have no effect upon tbe mining industry of the province, unless its scope of operations be misunderstood. Its failure is not due to unprofitable mining, but to lack of success in promoting flotations or sales that would give the concerns big returns. We once heard a foppish young man of Spokane boast that tie hud cleaned up $17,000 in two months by promoting mining companies in British Columbia. Such as these make the success of bona tide mining enterprises ull the more difficult to secure capital with which to develop genuine mineral properties. Cascade Board ot Trade.

Agent Mlkti a Discovery. William O'Brien, the well-known iiilractor of Kindt and Phoenix was in Cascade Monday in connec- iii with the matter of a tender which he had put in for furnishing |inles for the wireway of the Cits- 1'iide Water Power & Light coin- |ntnv- During the afternoon he went to the wicket at the depot to enquire whether it would be pos-; sible for him to get passage on a j freight for his home town. At' sight the agent, Mr. D. O'Connor, recognized him as his uncle whom he hud not seen for eight years and had not the least suspicion of his being in this part of the country. Their meeting was a great surprise to both. Mr. O'Brien was invited to visit Mrs. O'Connor and the baby, and so well pleased was he with this revelation Baby O'Connor was made the recipient of a $20 gold piece. Mr. O'Brien forgot all about his aniety to get out of town, and passed the balance of the day in tht* company of his newly found relatives. He is a contractor with much experience und considerable note, and among hie prominent works may be mentioned the noted the big Louzougn dam near ^alu<* met, Mich. He visited the big dam here, pronouncing it a remarkably substantial affair. Mr. O'Brien said be had been reasonably successful in business matters in this part of the country which, he thought afforded excellent opportunities for acquiring wealth and, though his family,except a son who is his business partner, is still at Renfrew, Ont.. he will send for them and take up a permanent residence in the Boundary.

The following appeared in the Rossland Miner of Monday, dispatched from Greenwood: "James Breen, of the Dominion Copper company, has been in the district for some time, traveling up and down between here and Phoenix, Asked where the company's proposed smelter is to be located, he eaid he didn't know. A portion of the company's land at Phoenix has been platted, and will shortly be placed on the market. Inside lots on Dominion avenue will probably sell for $750 and $1,000 for corner lots. It is rumored that the Great Northern depot at Phoenix will be located on the Idaho claim, owned by the company, An idea prevails that the company will finally select a site for the proposed reduction works at Carson, near Grand Forks. At least it is pointed out that Mr. Breen is desirous of locating as near as possible to the Boundary line, and the reason Carson is suggested is bceauBe the proposed Great Northern route into Phoenix camp is to be via Fourth of July oreek. However there is nothing authentic in these reports." Republic Bunk ind Boarding Houses Destroyed By Fire. Friday afternoon of last week a fire broke out in the kitchen at the Republic mine boarding house and spreading rapidly, totally destroyed that and the bunk house within an hour, says the Republic News. The place was almost deserted at the time the fire started, and but little was saved. Four miners were sleeping in the bunk house when the fire started. An alarm was rung in, but not until the boarding house was a miVes of flames and the bunk house already attacked by the devouring element. The chemical engines were takea in tow by ti farm wagon but before Ninth street was reached one of them was overturned and out of the race. The buildings were owned by the Republic company, and the boarding house was run by Richard E. Davis, who is a heavy loser. A large supply of grocer ies and pro visions were destroyed. Mr. Davis carried $1,000 insurance on his furniture and fixtures. The buildings were insured for $;v 100. What few articles were saved from the bunk house were thrown from the burning building by Ed. Lowery, who climbed to the upper windows on the outside and succeeded in entering several of the rooms and throwing the miners' effects out of the window. The outlook in South Africa is anything but cheering. Severe battles have recently been fought in which honors were about even between British and Doers. These, too, near Johannesburg!]. This does not look like no immediate collapse of the Boer wiir. NOTICE. Steam Boiler Inspectors' Examination.
