THE FIRE DEPARTMENT
Result of Mayor  Dean's
Labors - A  Lengthy
Letter.
Every year there is a big C. P. R
pionic upon the coast. This year
the C. P. R. proposed to have a
summer pionio for all its employes,
their families and friends at some
point in the Kootenays. It will
mean an influx of at least 2000
visitors. So far Rossland haB been
out of this kind of thing. Why
should it not be held here, say on
Miners Union day, and have a
joint and a monster celebration.
The merchants, the hotels, the
Miners Union, the mines would all
cheerfully put up for suoh an occasion. Nor is it likely that the
council would be behindhand.
Slocon oity is trying hard to get
this pionio but Slocan City had its
turn last year. It is time for
Rossland to bestir itself. A great
programme could be got up,
horse raoing, drilling contests
baseball and laorosse games, children's races, tug of war, fire team
races, fireworks, ending up with a
gigantio public ball.
Roasland oan do it if it wants to.
Why not get in and oelebrate in a
manner worthy of the camp's best
records, and they are good ones,
and in a way to which no objection
c.in be made?
Mayor Dean has issued for pub
lioation a lengthy letter to the Ore
insurance companies in wbioh he
shows that the fire department is
very costly, that extra water has
been obtained by joining the LeRoi
system to tbat of that of tbe city,
that extra efficiency is obtained by
the help of the fire brigades of the
Le Roi and War Eagle, that the
oity, with these, possesses over 8000
feet of hose, a larger quantity than
tbat possessed by any other city of
itB size in Canada, that the city engineer has been instructed to place
the water tanks in good repair, that
over 25,000 feet of pipe have been
laid during the past three years
that little loss has been incurred
during the past six months, that
hydrant testing only occurs once a
month, flushing sewers once a week
and oleaning sidewalks once a
year.
Mr. Curtis assigns strong reasons
why the Southeast Kootenay eoal
lands should be opened without delay. The mining interests are suffering terribly from lack of coke,
the Boundary ore output would be
trebled were coke available, the
price would and should be reduoed,
the Granby company has been
driven to open up coal mines in
Alberta so that moneys derived
from Phoenix, B. C„ copper mines
are paid out for coal mining in
Alberta, and British Columbia
loses also the coal tax revenue.
Capital and prospectors are ready
to invade the reserved district if locations are granted. The district
is well advertised. Why not let it
boom ? Why not invite the capital
in, no matter whence it comes.
Capital is British Columbia's great
need, and the time to get it into
the district will never be ao good
again.
By granting lioenoes while the
reserve is on, the salutary conditions referred to editorially can be
imposed; but if the reserve is first
taken off then they cannot be imposed at all under the present legislation.
Crown granted coal landB should,
like mineral claims, be subject to
a special tax unless worked, and
grouping for working purposes up
to 10 or 15 square milee, should be
permitted. This special tax would
be all the cheek needed to restrain
any syndicate from gobbling up all
the coal lands about whioh there is
not a little senseless ranting.

MR.   DUNSMUIR'S    MISTAKE
Contrary to the hopes and the
expectations of a great majority of
British Columbians, says the Vancouver World, there has not
as yet been a resumption of work
at the Dunsmuir collieries on Vancouver Island, nor do the prospects
of a settlement of the differences
between the management and the
men appear so favorable even as
they were a fortnight ago—and
this although the dispute had been
reported ended within the week
closing today.
The past feff days have nevertheless produced a change in the
situation which cannot be allowed
to pass wihhout comment, inasmuch as responsibility for the continuance of the struggle rests now,
not upon the men but upon the
shoulders of former premier James
Dunsmuir.
When Mr, Dunsmuir locked up
his ooal mines on the Island three
months or so ago there was not the
slightest misconception of the reason. He himself stated without
equivocation that the mines should
remain closed until such time as
the miners were willing to deal
with him through their own independent union, rather than through
the Western Federation of Miners
an organization having headquarters in the neighbor states. The
miners in the Dunsmuir properties
resisted the edict against internationalism in labor, and stood firm
for this important principal until
the speotre of starvation for iheir
wives and little ones forced them
lo surrender.
They had in mind, in yielding,
the promise of the mine owner that
. they might return to their old employment upon the old arrangement as soon as they decided to
abandon the international federation. Had Mr. Dunsmuir proved
loyal to his given word in tLis connection the mines would be operated today. The intoxication of a
poor success seems to have been
npon him, however, and the opportunity to strike in Labor a fallen
and suppliant antagonist was not
to be resisied. Promises were
therefore conveniently forgotten,
and out Shylocking Shylook, who
asked but for his even pound of
flesh, the master of the DunBmuir
mines sought to impose a new condition whioh does not speak for
any largeness of mind. He demanded that as a condition of their return to work the miners, brought
to bay by failure of the necessaries
of life, consent to pay him 50 cents
more per ton for all coal used by
their families in their humble
homes.
Did ever man of ostensibly large
affairs seek quite so puny and so
pitiful revenge?
COAL LOCATIONS.
Smith Curtis haB publicly declared himself to be of the opinion
that the ooal locations made upon
the reserved   lands in   Southeast
Kootenay are good. Being a lawyer
hie opinion is entitled to be considered.   Being a practical politician with an unequalled grasp of
public affairs the consideration thus
given will have to be weighty.   It
is undoubtedly a good thing that
coal lands should be opened up.
It is not so undoubtedly good that
any person or company, especially
if those persons or companies be
aliens to the country and therefore
might poBsibly aot in a manner
which is inimical to the general interests of the province and its mining  industries, Bhould take np so
much of that land as to be a monopoly.   In that case it would seem
as if the province were between the
devil and the deep sea.   There can
be no gainsaying of the fact that
many of the general public, if not
the majority, have been under the
impression that just as long as the
reservation was in force just that
long would locations be illegal.   A
certain injustice has undoubtedly
been Buffered by those people who
are ignorant of the law who otherwise might have joined in the chase
for locations.   But ignorance of the
law iB a plea that cannot be entered
Smith Curtis points out that under
the Coal Act no reservation holds
against prospecting for coal.    In
fact it is bo expressly Btated.   If
this view of the case is upheld it
would  seem  as  if  the locations
properly  made    will   hold  good.
But there is a saving clause of the
utmost    importance    whioh   Mr.
Curtis points out.   This iB that the
lieutenant governor   in   granting
those licences may impose  certain
restrictions.   Mr. Curtis holds that
if certain restrictions are imposed
the province will be a gainer and
not a loser by the validity of the
locations made.     He would insist
that a larger   price per   aore be
given   by the holders than is at
present. the case.   Just now  the
holder of coal lands merely pays $5
per acre for the ooal lands whioh he
works.      The    proposal    is    to
place a price on lignite, or brown
coal ol $5 per aore on   bituminous
coal   of   $10,    on    coking    ooal
of     $10,     and      on      anthracite of $20 per acre.   This last is
the price which the Dominion fixes
on    anthracite   lands     in     the
Territories.     In addition to this
Mr. Curtis would impose a tax on
all land   held   beyond  a   certain
area whioh  was   lying  unworked
so as  to prevent monopoly.   The
World thinks that the New Zea
land system of a progressive tax
would  accomplish   that end still
better.    That is to say that if the
tax were so muoh per acre on unworked lands of a certain area the
tax per aore would rise higher and
higher the more land was thus held
The Crow's Nest  oompany, whioh
hold some 250,000 aores of  ooal
lands only pays on the land  it  is
workiug.say some 30,OOOaoreB. The
remainder of the huge holding,220,-
000 aores, is untaxed and what is
taxed is taxed very lightly indeed.
Further it is proposed that the government should impose a rate aB
the highest which coal and  coke
could be sold f.o.b. to the B. C. consumer and retain power toad j ustthat
maximum rate  from time to time.
Still  further   that  the   Canadian
smelters and industries should be
the first to be supplied.
It will be seen that if this system
were applied, for instanoe, to the
Crow's NeBt Coal company a sensible revenue would be derived by
the government from this company which is deriving enormous
profits from its praotioal monopoly.
The scheme looks practical
enough but the point ia whether the

McBride government is willing to
insert any such . provisos when
granting the locations. In fact it
is hard to say what the trouble is
at the present moment that the reservation is not declared off and the
legality of the locations, three deep
in several cases, decided upon.
Section 12 of the Coal Prospecting Aot says:
"Notwithstanding anything in

to grant licences to prospect for

OUTRAGES

The Tsar Is Heavily Scored by the
Speakers-Must Respect Public Opinion.
Paris, July 3.—A meeting organ-
ad by the Advanced Republicans
•nd Socialists has been held to pro
teat against the Kishineff outrages
•nd the oppression of Finland.
Two thousand people were present.
Theohief speakers were Messrs.
Jaurea and Presaense. Jaures said
that the press associated itself with
Europe in the protest against the
oppression of Finland and the
massacres of Kishineff, In spite
. ot the Franco-Russian alliance and
the offioial reserve of powers publio opinion ought to protest. The
moat serious feature of the Kishineff affair was the complicity of the
regular authorities.
He did not acouse the Tsar, but
the Tsar was the first alave snd
serf of his own system. M. Plehve
had approaohed the Tsar and said
" yonr movement of pity is a disavowal of the authorities. Every
sovereign who listens, to his eon-
Boienee Is lost," and the Tsar was
afraid. M. Plehve endeavored to
make • diversion by turning the
people's discontent upon the Jews.
The inquiry was a mockery as a
number of the judges appointed
were contributors to the Bessara-
byetz, whioh had inoited the populace to commit outrages. All the
journals whioh expressed sorrow
•nd indignation were ordered to
moderate their tone, but the anti-
Semitio press, which had full
liberty, used it to show that it was
really the Christians who suffered
the most.
Jaurea waa etrnok by the fact
that Russia cannot long effort to
despise the opinion of foreigners.
M. Plehve felt foroed to adopt the
modern expedient of an interview
with a journalist, in whioh he tried
to disassociate himself with the
Kishineff outrages, and denounced
the Jews aB f omenters of revolution. The meeting unanimously
resolved to protest in the name of
humanity and justice against the
Kishineff massacres, the  violation
of right and law in Finland, and
to take note of the offioial responsibility which rendered the outrages

SITUATION IS SERIOUS
War May Break Out in the
Balkans at Any
Minute.
Belegrade, July 2.—According to
trustworthy information, the Macedonian oommittees have not abandoned the idea of a general rising
this year. Supplies of arms and
ammunition, it is stated, have been
obtained in sufficient quantities
and and are now being stored in
the mountains owing to Turkish
attacks on the villages. Every
village at the appointed time will
receive its full quota of arms and
ammunition, for whioh the inhabitants have already paid. The majority of the chiefs are disposed to
delay action until the harvest has
been reaped. The raiding of villages throughout Macedonia continues. The Adrianople people are
desperate, and it is believed that
they will readily respond to the
call to arms.
No efforts are being, made tooon-
oeal the faot that the Balkan situation has grown considerably worse
in the last fortnight. Many murders, it iB stateB, are being perpetrated by Bulgarian bands for motives ot revenge, and 152 bombs
have been found at Sasa, one hour
distant from the Bulgarian frontier.
The Politische Correspondenz confirms tbe report that anarohy is
prevalent in the Adrianople district, and states that there are
2000 refugees at Burgas from that
vilayet.   	
The Palaoe has the only fin t
class bowling alley in the oity.
SIMILKAMEEN CITY,
Now Is the Time to Buy Lots
in Similkameen City, B. 6.
CAMP HEDLEY is the most talked of camp in the province, and situated in the centre is Similkameen City, surrounded by
rich mines whioh will shortly have large payrolls. Over 200 lotB have been sold to business people who realize that Similkameen will become the metropolis of this district. The Nickel Plate mines have expended $300,000 in development and are at
present building tramways and a 40-stamp mill. Arrangements are being made for the erection of a large smelter at Similkameen City which will cost about a million dollars. Besides the Nickel Plate group of claims being developed by one of the richest
mining companies in North America, there are several other groups and properties which will shortly be developed, among them
being the Kingston Mines, Rollo, Wellington, Winnipeg, Red Chief and Pollock. Situated as it is in the beautiful Similkameen
•tlklley, midway between Princeton and Keremeos, and protected from all opposition in the valley by adjoining a large Indian
reservation, Ihis townsite will become one of the principal mining camps of the Pacific Northwest. It was only a short time ago
that lots in Rossland, Nelson, Greenwood and other mining centres were selling for the same prioe that tbey are today being Bold
for in Similkameen.   Come in before tbe boom and double your money.
i
Similkameen City to Have Two Railways.
The Viotoria, Vancouver & Eastern and the Canadian Pacific railways are starting immediate construction for the Similkameen,
which will make this town a railroad centre and divisional point, and when these competing lines are completed through to the
Pacific coast they will become the main through lines, being the shortest route from the interior to the coast. A large sawmill is
running steadily on the weBt addition, the only available timber for miles around. The main street is 90 feet wide, being all
cleared and ready for building purposes. All railways, roads, telegraph and telephone lines will have to come through this
townsite, whioh is looated in the centre of the whole Similkameen valley and will become the largest distributing point and
mining centre in British Columbia.
Similkameen City Lots Will Make You Rich.
A large agricultural area to draw from.   Pure water, fine climate, rich mines, big payrolls.

Bad ter the Editor
An editor wrote: "We beg the
indulgenoe of our readers for being
a day late this week. Our failure
to get out on time was the result of
the physioal demoralization of the
editor, caused by Bleeping too close
to the boarding house window."
The cussed compositor set the last
word "widow" and the proofreader
failed to discover the omission of
the letter "n." The editor's trunk
is Btill at the boarding house and
he hasn't had a change of shirts

The Salvation Army.
A would-be smart commercial

'I don't know," she said, "but
when I get to heaven Til ask Jonah
if .t occurred."
"But," said the funny man," supposing he isn't there?"
"Then," said the girl promply,
"you oan ask him."

Vanoouver, July 3.—With the
close of the federal fiscal year it is
interesting to observe the extraordinary progress that Vanoouver
has made as a port of the Dominion. The customs collections for
for the port of Vanoouver for the
fisoal year that has ended
amount to the large sum of $1,388,-
700.60.
This makes Vancouver the fourth
port in the Dominion in respeot to
customs collections, Montreal, Toronto and Winnipeg only leading
Vanoouver in th»s matter iu the
order named. Until now Halifax
took place immediately before Vancouver but the Haligonian seaport
has now to yield precedence to the
Pacific port of Canada.        -
