EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE IS FORMED
Vote of Thanks Passed  to   the   Miners   Union-
Representative Gathering of Citizens Is
Enthusiastic.
Despite tbe shortness of the
notioe there was a large and representative gathering at the City Hall
last evening to discuss the proposed
joint celebration with the employes ol the C. P. B. some time in
August next, after the 15th of that
month. There was not a dissentient voice and the wishes of the
meeting were unequivocally in
favor of Buch a celebration.
The chair was taken by Mayor
Dean who briefly expressed the
objeots of the gathering and, saying
he understood that some arrangements had been oome to between
the Miners' Union and the C. P. B.
employes, called upon M. P. Villen-
euve, the Becretary of that organization.
M. P. Villeneuve declared shortly
that the Miners Union had dec d
ed on a meeting on Sunday to forego
their annual pionio if the C. P. R.
employes were to come to the camp
for their annual outing about to be
instituted in the Kootenays. That
later on that day he had Been
some of the C. P. B. employees interested who had declared that the.
arrangement was satisfactory to
them and that they would come.
The matter had to be left to the
voice of a meeting whioh would be
oalled this week in Nelson but that
they thought that if the Miners
Union and the citizens of Rossland
generally were to take the matter
up that the pionio would- certainly
be held here. The only condition
made by either the Miners or the
C.P.B.unions was that there should
be a parade of which they should
have oharge, and beyond this they
were willing to fall in with the
views of the oity at large. The
parade did not bar outside bodies
from participating, such as the
Spokane Elks if they came here,
or tbe civio dignitaries, business
men's floats, Rangers or the bugle
band, but it did not contemplate
the presence of fraternal sooieties,
inasmuch as this would mean tbe
drawing of large numbers of men
from the ranks of the Miners
union.
T. H. Reed agreed with the
speaker.
Mayor Dean then put the question to the meeting whether it desired to have the celebration and
whether it agreed with the conditions laid down by the Miners
Union. ThiB was affirmed unanimously.
A. S. Goodeve then proposed that
Mayor Dean should be  Honorary
President; of the celebration committee. This was carried and Andy
Drewry was appointed secretary
for the meeting.
The meeting proposed a vote of
thanks to the Miners Union for the
way it had magnanimously given
up its own pionic day in the general interests of tbe oity.
It was thought advisable that a
delegation of tour should wait upon the meeting of the C. P. R, employes in Nelson for the purpose of
laying before it the advantages
Rossland was prepared to offer
and Mayor Dean as chief magistrate of the city, M. P. Villeneuve
of the Miners Union, A. C. McArthur of the C.. P. R., and
Harry Mcintosh, proprietor of the
Hoffman Hotel, were nominated
and consented to act.
The next business was to nominate an executive committee with
power to add to its numbers, a correct list of whioh is given below.
From this committee will be selected special committees eaoh of whioh
will appoint its own chairman, and
from the executive will be taken a
permanent secretary and a general
chairman. The executive committee will take no further aotion
till the result of the deputation to
Nelson has been declared, when it
will proceed to split itself into committees in the manner mentioned
and deal with finance, programme,
advertising, sports, reception, decorations, etc.
Last night word, was received
from the C. P. R. employees that it
was practically decided upon coming to Rossland, and the question
was merely of transportation.
Word should be received about this
tomorrow evening and the question
will be definitely settled by Thursday next.
The following are the names of
those whom the meeting thought
desirable upon the executive committee:

BOUNTY
ON LEAD
Yearly Must Not Exceed
$500,000.
SMELTER RATE RESTRICTIONS
Proposal Laid  Before the Ottawa
Government by Minister
Fielding.
Continued on fourth page.
Ottawa, July 7.—Fielding yesterday gave notice of a resolution
authorizing the payment of 1500,-
000 a year for five years by way of
bounties to the lead producers of
British Columbia.
The terms of the resolution are
as follows:
1. The governor-in-oouncil may
authorize the payment of a bounty
of 75 cents per 100 pounds of lead
contained in lead-bearing ores
mined in Canada, provided that
the sum to be paid as such bounty
shall not exceed $500,000 in any
fiscal year. Provided also that
when it appears to the satisfaction
of the minister charged with the
administration of this aot that the
standard price of pig lead in
London, England, exceeds 912 10s.
per ton of 2240 lbs., suoh bounty
shall be reduoed proportionately by
amount of suoh excess.
2. Payment of said bounty may
be made from time to time to the
extent of 60 per oent of the full
bounty authorized, subject to adjustment at the close of each fiscal
year. If at the close of any year it
shall appear that during the year
the quantity of lead produced on
whioh the bounty is authorized, exceeds 33,000 tons of 2000 lbs eaoh,
the rate of bounty shall be reduced
to suoh a Bum as will bring the payments for the year within the limit
mentioned in section 1.
3. If at any time it shall appear to the satisfaction of the gov-
emor-in-counoil that the charges
for transportation and treatment
of lead ores in Canada are excessive, or that there is any discrimination whioh prevents the smelting
of such ores in Canada on fair and
reasonable terms, the governor-in-
council may authorize the payment
of bounty at such reduoed rate, as
may be deemed just, on lead contained in such ores mined inCanada
and exported for treatment abroad.
4. Said bounties shall cease and
determine on the 30th day of June,
1908.

PARTISAN FOLLY.
• Canadian politics will be purified
when the people understand that
their parties are tools to be used,
not deities to be worshipped, says
ihe Toronto Telegram.. The student of politics must notice tbat
the men who bave most to say in
the government of this country and
the men who get most out of that
government are not conspicuous for
their loyalty to party nameB. The
people who want the rights of the
people protected and ihe money of
the people preserved should take a
leaf ont of the hand-book of Messrs
Mackenzie & Mann. These gentlemen or the C. P. It. are never
known to Btrike an attitude and
say:
"My party, may   it   always
be right, but my party, right
or wrong."
The eiijloi'e-has no politics. His
motto is:
"Ourselves, may we always
be right, but ourselves, right
or wrong."
- The corporations which are look
ing for public franchises and public
money get what they want becauae
they press toward the goal without
reference to such side issues as
party nameB and war cricn. The
people who are looking for good
government never make any real
progress, because they break out of
the line of march to ily at other's
throats over some name that has
no meaning, or some partisan feud
that has no relationship to the public duty of standing up for Canada.
CANADA'S RAILWAY  POLICY
-Mr. Blair's dream was not altogether a dream, says the Victoria
Times. Canada is to have another
transcontinental line of railway,
running from tidewater to tidewater, entirely through British
territory. The roadbed from
Monoton to Winnipeg will be owned by the government, and all
companies which desire to help to
convey the boundless wealth of the
mountains to market have but to
build through the prolific sections
of the country and ask for running
powers over the government road.
The carrying out of this arrangement Bhould impart a great stimulus to the settlement of the west and
hasten the day when Canada will
raise enough food to feed the hungry people of the United Kingdom.
The work is a stupendous one,
bold in its conception, but not unworthy oi the men whose minds
conceived the idea of the preferential tariff. There is no doubt
whatever of the ability of the Dominion, with its overflowing treasury, to execute it.
Contrast this policy with that
under which the C. P, It., with its
immense gifts in cash, in completed
road, and in land, was constructed.
It will be said that the transcontinental line was built through a
new country, whose potentialities
were practically unknown. So
will the whole of tbe new government line almost.   It will not only
afford tbe shortest possible route to
the Atlantic seaboard. It will be
practically a colonization road between Quebeo and Winnipeg, bringing new territory within the
reach of the settler, creating a new Canada in the great
northern belt.and removing forever
from the mouth of the scornful and
envious the sneer that Canada is
composed of a narrow strip oi territory north of the 49th parrellel.
Talk about a boom in Canada. The
day of our prosperity is merely
dawning!
THE ADULLAMITES.
The Miner of Sunday can be
oalled, without any exaggeration,
unique, so far as its political attitude is concerned, but it is not a
matter to be glossed over if it be of
the importance that the Miner
would seek to lead one to believe.
For a long time it waa amusing to
read the attempted attaoks on
Smith Curtis, the representative of
the RoBsland riding in the legislature, and few were surprised that
the Miner should afterwards change
its attempts to down him to its
feeble and weakly praise, and one
would not wonder at all at the ful
some flattery which it attempts to
hand to that old Spartan Liberal,
Dr. Sinclair, as the attitude of the
dootor in politics is known to every
one and never changes, but how
does it attempt to conneot those
two men with that fatuous dream
of which we read, and that fetich of
all political parties, the "Independents," of whom so muoh is written
and expected. The majority of the
few readers of the morning organ
were apparently of the opinion
that the editor "had 'em again
and was seeing things, if one might
judge by the comment in publio
places, but more, and those rightly
so, that it was largely that he was
trying to hold a "pistol" to the
head of the Conservative party in
order to secure tbe nomination
which has no doubt been one of his
sweetest dreams. Neither of the
old political parties regard
him seriously and both smile knowingly when the matter is mentioned, and the workingman winks a
knowing eye when his attention ia
drawn to the faot that Mr. Kirby's
paper is in love with him and willing to shed blood for him. Outside of the editor of the Miner no
one has heard of the new political
party, and all are anxious to Bee
the list of its members, who are
Becesh from the other parties, published. It would be interesting
reading and if the Miner has the
cause at heart it will do bo.

The course of affairs in Hungary
is such aa to inspire even the optimists with disquietude. The extreme section of the independent

ENTERPRISE BUILDING,
Columbia Ave., RosBland.] THE EVENING WORLD, ROSSLAND B. C, JULY f\ 1903,
MUNICIPAL
CONTROL
The Tendency Is Growing
Stronger.
FEW CITIES OUT IN THE COLD
Only Nina La'ge Cities in the United
States Have Water Privately   .
Supplied-
The strongest force acting toward
the publio ownership and operation of municipal franchises is the
demand (or good service, sayB the
Toronto Globe. While the publio
are well served by the natural
monopolies that urban life oreates
there is little heed given to agitations for publio control. It is when
servioes are stinted or neglected
that those who hold positive views
in favor of municipal ownership secure an attentive hearing. Both
in Canada and the United States
the most rapid advanoe has been
in regard to the water services in
cities. Gas, electric light, power
and Btreet railway companies have
felt impelled by tbe possible loss of
patronage to serve the publio well.
But water oompaniea, secure in
their monopolies, have been tempted to adopt lines of policy leading
inevitably to publio ownership.
The recent acquisition of the
waterworks by the oity of Memphis,
Tenn., leaves only nine cities in
the United States of over 100,000
population supplied by private
water companies. The nine cities,
in the order of their population in
1900, are: Sin Francisco, New
Orleans, Indianapolis, Denver, New
Haven, Paterson.St. Joseph,Omaba
and Scranton. Two of these, New
Orleans and Omaha, are already
oommitted to municipal ownership
and for years there has been a
■trong movement injthat direction
at San Francisco. Agitation to
the same end was also very muoh
in evidence at Indianapolis and
Denver a few years ago. The oities
of 100,000 population or over numbered 38 in i-JOO, of which 29 now
own tbeir waterworks. In the
same year there were 97 cities with
papulations ranging kfrcm 100,000
to 30,000, and of those nearly 70
own waterworks, while a number of
others are making more or less
rapid progress towards municipal
ownership.
In commenting on these statistics, The Engineering News says
that, unless the tide turns, twenty
to twenty-five years hence will
show but few oities of 30,000 population supplied with water by private companies. The experience
in Canada is similar to that of the
United States, and there is no likelihood of any municipality in control of its own water supply returning to the system of private
ownership. The cause of special
advanoement in this respect is
obvious. Street railway companies
must oompete with the bioyole.
Gas and electric light companies
must compete with other illumin-
ante. But a water oompany in a
large oity has the people virtually
at its meroy, and is almost certain
to presume on its power. The
necessity of a pure and abundant
[ supply is absolute, and the people
will not take the risk involved in
the control of a.private oompany
standing to profit by itB own  neg-
[ loot.   The change in the direction.
I of municipal   ownership depends
loot so muoh on  the diffusion of
governmental theories as on the
inefficiency of tbe services controlled by private corporations.
The  merchants'  lunch  at  the
Palace tomorrow will be a dandy.
Don't forget the hot lunch at the
Palace tonight.
The Black Hawk
The Ernest Mansfield outfit is in
luck, an ezoeediugly promising
strike having been made on the
Black Hawk and Daisy claims, situated in the same vicinity as the
Highland Light, Sandon. W. E.
Boie and Martin Isaaoson were doing assessment work and ran on to
a new ledge in the face of a pre
cipitous bluff. In fact (here are
two ledges, but the lower reveals
no pay values. Both are lying
somewhat flat and with the usual
northeast trend. The upper ledge
has been traced 500 feet and is six
feet wide, carrying a quartz seam
10 to 14 inches in width, and
whioh is heavily splashed with ore.
The ore is also of the dry variety,
but is richer than the average,
ruby silver being plainly discernible.

SIMILKAMEEN CITY,
Now Is the Time to Buy Lots
in Similkameen City, B. e.
CAMP HEDLEY is the mosl talked of oamp in the province, and situated in the centre is Similkameen City, surrounded bv
rioh mines whioh will shortly have large payrolls. Over 200 lota have been sold to business people who realize that Similkameen will beoome the metropolis of this distriet. The Niokel 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 ereotion of a large smelter at Similkameen City which will coat about a million dollarB. Besides the Niokel Plate group of claims being developed by one of the richest
mining oompaniea in North America, there are several other groups and properties whioh 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
valley, midway between Princeton and Keremeos, and protected from all opposition in the valley by adjoining a large Indian
reservation, this townsite will become one of the principal mining camps of lhe Paoifio Northwest. It was only a short time ago
that lots in Rossland, Nelson, Greenwood and other mining oentres were selling for the same prioe that they are today being sold
for in Similkameen.   Come in before the boom and double your money.
Similkameen City to Have Two Railways.
The Viotoria, Vanoouver & Eastern and the Canadian Paoifio railways are starting immediate construction for the Similkameen
whioh will make this town a railroad centre and divisional point, and when these competing lines are completed through to the
Pacific ooast Ihey will beoome the main through lines, being the shortest route from the interior to the ooast. A large sawmill is
running steadily on the weet addition, the only available timber for milea 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 tbe oentre of the whole Similkameen valley and will become the largest distributing point and
mining oentre in British Columbia.

Great Northern Hay Extend Their Line Into
Fernie
Ymir, July 7.—A splendid sample of free milling ore haB been
brought in from the Spotted Horse
property bv Charles Ditter, one of
the owners. The sample weighed
about three pounds and was literally oovered with the yellow metal,
many experts who examined it estimated that the sample contained
at least one quarter of an ounce ot
gold. It goes without Baying that
this iB the best sample of free milling ore whioh has been exhibited
in the Ymir camp since its inception.
Messrs, Cole and Ditter who are
the lucky owners are preparing to
push the development of this property vigorously this summer. New
oamps have been oompleted and the
force whioh is now at work will be
increased as rapidly as circumstances will permit. Already over
80 feet of work has been done, consisting of 26 feet of open outs and a
tunnel whioh is in on the ledge
some 50 feet, from which assays
taken gave from $64 to $260 in
gold. One carload of ore shipped
to the smelter gave a retuan of $22.85
per ton in gold.

Arrival of   Coke   Means
Employment of More
Men.
Trail, July 7.—Coke supplies are
arriving more freely — although
not yet to the normal demand of
the smeller. Two copper and one
lead stack are now in operation.
The starting of the lead, adds nearly 100 men to the pay roll, and
now tbat the lead industry seems
to be in a fair way to receive the
bounty asked for, it is expected
that the entire lead plant here will
aoon be in operation.
If this takes place it will practically mean the doubling of Trail's
present population.

Morrissey Mines, July 7.—Well

that the Great Northern railway
will extend their Crow's Nest
Southern branch from Morrissey to
Fernie and Michel during the present summer, and that an early
start will be made.
The planB for the Morrissey
mines branch of the Canadian bank
of Commerce have arrived from
Toronto, and when completed the
building will be one of the finest
and most commodious ol its kind
in the Kootenays, The structure
will oover a ground space of 40x150
feet, and will be two storys in
height with basement. The upper
story will be used for living apart
ments by the bank employes.
The ereotion of thiB building,
which will be both elaborate and
costly, may be taken aB an evidence of the confidence of the
managers of this big financial institution, in Morrissey Mines. This
confidence is also expressed in the
exceptionally good character of
the buildings now nearing completion,
