Ottawa, May 25—Refreshed and
invigorated by the brief holiday,
the Commoners returned to their
labors today, and the Opposition
resumed with renowed energy the
debate upon the third read ng of
the National Transcontinental
Railway bill. An amendment by
Mr. George A. Clare, proposing to
insert in the bill a clause provid
ing against the employment of
aliens on the surveys and construction of the railway, waB productive
of an animated and energetio debate, in the oourse of wbioh Sir
William Mulock made a couple of
important announcements regarding the Government polioy. The
Minister of Labor Btated that
Judge Winchester had been appointed to investigate the complaints that the Qrand Trunk Pacific were employing American engineers on the surveys. The other
announcement was that the Government had decided to introduce
at this session general legislation
whioh would be effective in protecting Canadians from the competition of alien labor.
Hon.   Mr.   Fitzpatrick  supplemented this statement by emphatically deolaring  that the legislation  when  introduced   would be
found ample in ite soope to protect
professional employees, as well as
mechanics and laborers.   Furthermore, that it would apply to all
undertakings   and  enterprises receiving public aid, and he intimat
ed  tbat  complaints  having been
received   that   the  C. P. R    were
also offenders aa regards the em
ployment   of   aliens,    the  legis-
ture Bhould be general in He character, and that the Grand Trunk
Paoifio should not be singled out
tor special treatment.   The olaim
of Mr. Taylor, endorsed by Mr. E
F. Clarke, and other Opposition
speakers, for the credit of having
introduced an alien bill in 1890,
drew from the Minister of Justice a
vigorous protest that tbe bill wae
on two occasions introduced on the
eve of a general election, with the
full knowledge  that it could not
pass.   The amendment was voted
down by a majority of 36 in a comparatively    email    House,  many
members not having returned from
the holiday.
Several other amendments providing lor the taking over ol the
road by the Goveroment at any
time on six months' notioe were
also dispoeed ol.
St. Petersburg, May 31—The
War Office hae reoeived the following despatch from General
Kouropatkin under today's date:
"Today I reoeived a report that the
Japanese advance on Kwantien
hae begun from Saimatszu. The
number of the enemy are not
known."
Chefoo, May 30.—Chinese from
Dalny report that the Russians
had 26 naval guns at Nanshan and
also that many guns from the Port
Arthur fleet had been plaoe 1 in the
land batteries.
London, May 31—The London
dailies exhaust the vocabulary oi
admiration of the Japanese. The
achievement at Kincbao they regard as proving the absolute military equality of the Japanese with
the best European armies and as
qualifying the Japanese to rank as
a great people.* The Daily Telegraph Bays editorially:
"Japan no longer is a great power
by brevet rank, aB upon the field of
Kinchao she has taken her final
commission, and henceforth her in
tercourse with the west stands
upon a basis ol reciprocity as well
as equality."
Liauyang May 31.—Lieutenant
colonel Spiridonoff, of the fourth
trans-Amur railway battalion, hae
repaired the railway line north of
Kinchao between the stations at
Sinju and Vanscling and tomorrow
will complete the work between
Bafangoy and Walftigan.
The Chinese are readily offering
themselves for employment. A
typhoon pravails which hinders the
Japanese landing operations and
and heavy rains are spoiling the
roads. The Russians, it is report
ed have captured a Japanese convoy.
London, May 31—The Standard's Chefoo correspondent Bays
that a Russian gunboat believed to
be the Bobr, which was in action
at Talienwan Thursday, has arrived from Port Arthur. She was
chased by Japanese cruisers, but
was able to take refuge in Dalny
She was not followed into that port
on account of the mines.

The Court of Revision for appeals on City assessments held a
formal but unprecedented meeting
ye. terday, and is going on with the
ordinary work today with a large
percentage of the appeals struck
off.
Whether this trick was done by
the unaided wit and smartness of
the Court of Revision or whether
they were aided by the advice of
City Magistrate or City Solicitor
has not transpired, probably never
will. However the citizens may
thank somebody for the expedition
of business thus accomplished, and
of getting rid of those sore heads,
for the moet part, who were insensate enough to appeal against the
assessments made.
Instantly the Court sat a roll
was oalled and all the cases and
anybody not represented in person
or by counsel or by other moans
was struck off the list. This did
away with quite a number. Then
the Court proceeded to enquire
minutely aB to the aooredit of those
persons who were aoting for others
and if there was no power of attorney or other equally valid legal
dooument, their oases were also
struok   off.   Thus   tbe   cases   are
valuable time of the members of
the Court sitting (as Aldermen
they are paid nothing) will not be
wasted.
Furthermore the citizens ol
Rossland will be duly impressed
with the necessity of strict punctuality.

WORLD'S   FAIR.
Special   Selling   Date on June 7th,
1904
iee.
In the early days of this Council
Mayor Clute was particularly indignant at the manner in whicb
the various committee, of the Counoil failed to meet. He himself ie
ex-officio member of all committees
Consequently he had to do all tbe
work which, of oourse, was not
right, aB he was the only man paid
anything. He haBBtill the same
trouble, un.tiJHjiax-y Crow wants
something. ILwat the beginning
ol the year our local oontemporarj
made a big howl and wrote a virtuously indignant letter to the
Counoil about certain job woik
being tendered for. The Council
thereupon spoke virtuously, deolar
ing all printing was to be done Ia
tender. It did not say who was to
open the tenders, however. Two
weeks ago today the Counoil
passed a resolution drafted by thi
City Solioitor or City Magistrate
whioh gave oertain printing to be
done by the Miner. No tender
was spoken of. A oouple of the
City offioials then saw that their
masters had stultified themselves
in their infinite wisdom and went
and asked for tenders. This was
trop de zele on their parts, and we
have not heard they have been
thanked* The eame week another
printing job was tn be done and a
lump bid asked for. The Would
promptly tendered. Tbis did not
suit apparently, and a bid per line
was asked for, it being intimated
by the City Clerk that 12 inches
over and above this would be paid
for the necessary head and signature. This part of the bid, however,
was not to be made simply the
straight matter so many lines at so
muoh. The World bid again out
ting 30 per cent on the regular
rates as paid by the Government
for similar work. It did not get
the bid as the Miner bid below and
made a out of 30 2 per oent, making a difference of one tenth of a
oent per line, or a difference on
the whole of the straight matter of
45 cents. It was a wonderful pieoe
of foresight or rather insight, and
it got the tender. Next it publishes
the printing in question, a tax list,
and insfead of having 12 inches
for headings and signature, has 27
inohes. Readers of the Miner may
see this to be the oase. If the
Miner charges for 27 inohes instead
of 12 as was privately and verbally
requested by City Clerk McQueen,
the whole tax list will cost the oity
just about 145 more than the
World bid, instead of 45 oents lees.
This is how bidding is done in this
oity and goes to the lowest bidder.
The bids were opened by the
Mayor. Apparently they should
have been opened by the Finance
Committee. One was absent iu
Spokane, another was not informed
ol the hour of meeting, a third was
to be oalled for by the Mayor, but
that gentleman unfortunately forgot. The City Clerk was not present, and it is difficult to find out
who was. It is reported tbat the
only man present, beside, t.ir
JMajrar  -tim-elf,  was one sf  tuu|lW-_*-UMW 39.

Enthusiastic as to the
Future
Very
Nelson, May 30.—Fred Starkey,
the well known wholesaler is back
from a visit to the Lardeau during
whioh he visited Poplar, Trout
Lake, Ferguson and Goldhill. Mr
Starkey is enthusiastic regarding
the Lardeau and says it has a
great future before it. At Poplar
he found that there are between
400 and 500 prospeotors in the hills
prospering or doing assessment or
development work on their olaims.
There are a number of prospeotors
who live at Poplar in cabins or
tents and who leave early in the
morning for the purpose of looking
after their claims, returning in the
evening. "They are enthusiastic
to a man," eaid Mr Starkey "and
declare that the Poplar creek sec
tion is oertain tn heco-ae a large
producer ot gold " 0 ,e thing thai
his attracted much attention at
Poplar iB the U< hat the softest
schist carries fret* gold io paying
qianities, and great expectations
are entertained over this fact.

Bannett like a law abiding oitizen
has paid the former alth ugh still
maintaining that there is no
moral obligation on his part so to
do.
Another moral besides the one
we pointed out in the artiole in
question is. Be sure of the paper
