PROPOSED
LAND GRANT
London, March 14.—Field Marshal Lord Wolseley, the former
commander-in-chief of the British
army, starts for Capetown tomorrow, and although the officials
deny that his trip is anything but
a private visit, gossip connects it
with a military situation. It is
pointed out that Lord Wolsley's
knowledge of South Africa gained
as a fighter and administrator,
might be highly useful to Lord
Kitohener either at the baBe (Capetown) or at Pretoria.
Lord Wolseley himself says his
trip is entirely private. Col. Frank
Rhodes and Arthur Rhodes,
brothers of Cecil Rhodes, and Lady
Methuen will be passengers on the
steamer which will take Lord
Wolseley to Capetown.
Fayal, Azores, March 14.—The
Royal Mail steamship company's

for Queenstown and Liverpool,
which was picked up by the British
steamer William Cliff, between 400
and 500 miles northwest of Fayal in
a disabled condition, and which
arrived at Horta, Azores, in tow of
the William Cliff, on March 9th.

There was a large and representative meeting of the Liberal association last night at which some 50
members were present, and a number of new Liberals were enrolled,
lieyond some general business having reference to the internal economy of the association itself, there
was nothing done beyond the passing of two resolutions, the one endorsing the appointment of Senator
Templeman, and expressing confidence in that gentleman, and the
other unreservedly condemning the
proposed land grant to the Canadian Northern on the general
grounds that it was contrary to the
expressed spirit of Liberalism.
Some stirring speeches were made
on the matter which were listened
to with much attention. The following resolution was passed with
applause, and a rider waB added to
the effect that a copy should be
sent to each and every member of
the legislature:
"This association disapproves of!
the giving away of land by way of
bonus to railways, and contequent-
ly protests against the terms of the
present agreement entered into between the provincial government
and the Canadian Northern railway, not only on account of the
inormous amount of land that tht
contract gives to the said railway
but also on account of itB giving an
exemption from taxation on these
lands for all time while in the possession of the railway."
A meeting for the purpose of instituting the Order Sons of St.
George, initiating members, electing officers, etc., will be held in
Odd FellowB' hall on Saturday,
March 15th, at 7:30 p. ni.

Heilbron, Orange River Colony,
March 11.—Commandant Mentz,
with the Heilbron commando of
Boers, broke through the Heilbron-
Wolvehok blockhouse line at Got-
tenburg last night. The Boers had
been pursued for several days.
So far as known, only one Boer
was killed and five were captured.
The British columns, during the
hours of pursuit of Commandant
Mentz, picked up scattered parties
of Boers aggregating 50 men.

CHESS PLAYERS' CABLE MATCH.
The correspondence which passed
between Mr. Chamberlain and the
Canadian government, in regard to
inviting Sir Wilfrid Laurier to ut-
tend the Coronation ceremonies,
has been presented to the Dominion
parliament.
On December 27th, Mr. Chamberlain cabled, inviting the premier and some lady of his family to
attend the Coronation.
On January 15th Mr. Chamberlain again cabled that it was the
intention of HiB Majesty's government to take advantage of the
presence of the premiers at the Coronation to discuss with them the
question of political relations be-
the mother countries and the colonies, imperial defence, commercial relations of the empire and
other matters of general interest.
Lord Minto cabled for the Canadian government on February
23rd, saying that Sir Wilfrid
Laurier would sail on June 10th,
with Lady Laurier. The dispatch
says: "Reierring to the several
questions mentioned in your dispatch of January 15th, the only
one which, in the opinions of the
ministers, gives promise of useful
discussion, is that of commercial
relations between the various sections of the empire."
It goes on to say that the present political relations were satisfactory, and that there could be
no Bcheme of defence aB applicable
to all. However, respectful consideration would be given to any
proposals that might lie submitted
by His Majesty's government.

New York, March 14.—The seventh International cable match between America and Great Britain

PANAMA CANAL.
Some senators over the line
have declared against the Panama
canal and report in favor of the
Nicaraguan route. This is the old
game and just what Great Britain
has gained by its surrender of the
Clayton Bulwer treaty is not now
apparent. Many Canadian papers
are of the opinion that a golden
opportunity was lost by the imperial authorities by not making a settlement of the Alaskan boundary
dispute a condition precedent to
the abrogation of the canal clauses.
Events are proving them to be in
the right. Canada ia as much interested in the building of a canal
as are the States. American railroads are against this policy, therefore this country has to suffer.
That canal will be built when the
Empire has ths opportunity and
seizes it and not before. The Nicaraguan route is a bluff. Really
Brummagen Joe ought to add the
game of poker to his other statesmanlike qualifications.
OUR FINANCES.
Advocates of collective ownership of industry throughout this
province, says the Lardeau Eagle,
will probably be surprised to read
a statement recently made by Hon.
James Dunsmuir in an open letter
addressed to British Columbia
electors some days ago: On page
10 of his pamphlet we find these
words: "If the people of British
Columbia were able to retain all
they contribute in taxes to the
provincial and Dominion governments, they could support every
public utility of the province, both
provincial and Dominion, build
tbeir own railways, and still have
a surplus each year lo their credit".
And yet we are sometimes asked:
"But where are you going to get
the money to go into business?"
It is scarcely likely that Mr. Dunsmuir has any notion of adopting
any such a policy however. Another provincial election in this
province, with a fair redistribution of representation, will place
enough men of the above opinion
in the house at Victoria to do more
than admit that the theories of
collective ownership are practicable. They will act. The people
are surely weary of the domination
of the present aggregation of moss-
backs at the capital.
If legislators of yore made laws
and conditions surely we can
change them if they don't suit us.
What the electors of British Columbia want is an industrial government—and thus end for all
time political jobbery and the
robberies of privately owned corporations, flow can we ever expect to get out of debt when we
give away our natutal resources,
and bonus men to take over anything with a dividend attached?
THAT LAND GRANT.
In another column is published
the resolution pasBed by the Rossland Liberal association condemning the land grant to the Canadiun
Northern, a draft of which is now
before the provincial legislature.
Tho Rossland Liberals passed the
resolution without a dissentient
voice, mainly on the general principle that all land grants, in as
much as thoy alienated the capital
of future generations and so dim-
ished their capability of paying off
lhe   debt   with   which   they  are
•^->A^.IAm**Am^f*.^A^A*^^-A*^A.A\^Kn9A-^lt^,n-\
» KtitwIimfetAWArmirirm
being saddled by thi' legislators
of the present day, was vicious in
principle and corrupt in practice. It would he well if the act
ion of the Rossland liberals was
followed by similar associations
throughout the province and if the
Conservatives wish to show that
they still are in the ring they can
not do better than endorsing
this principle.
Smith Curtis in discussing this
very matter in a debate on the address declares that before any such
grant is given an appeal should be
made lo the people on a referendum. This course is only proper
and is the more eminently fitted
to the present conditions since the
absence of party lines precludes
the possibility of fastening
the responsibility for unwise
legislation on any particular body
of men.
Some feeble arguments have
been heard in favor of the grant.
One is that the railway is eminently desirable as it opens up the
country. Another that the grant
does not take all the lands in the
neighborhood of tbe line. Another
that the railway can be parallelled
by another if necessary just as
could have been done in Manitoba.
As for the taxation clause it is urged
that it is the policy of the railway
to sell its land as soon as it can
and therefore the lands will not be
exempt from taxation for any considerable length of time.
That railways open up the country is doubtless true. Equally
true is it that seal skin coats keep
the body warm. But if the would
be purchaser mortgage his patrimony for the period of his own and
children's children.s life to procure either he ought to be looked
upon as incapable of managing
his own affairs. The effect of a
land grant of 20,000 acreB to the
mile iB to create a railway land
belt across the country from 40 to
50 miles wide. That means
that none could settle unless railway lands were purchased at railway figures. If parallpl railways
should be built it would ouly mean,
under similar conditions, that there
would be more gifts of the public
domain and the last state of the
province would be worse than the
first. The a priori argument that
the railway would soon sell the
land and so render itself liable to
taxation is easily confuted by a
reference to the amount of taxation
paid the C. P. R. on government
lands granted it a generation   ago.

NOTES AND COMMENTS.
Joe Hislop is not a C. P. R. surveyor but is a henchman of Dunsmuir. Where the C. P. R. line,
west of Midway, is located the
Miner can learn by consulting the
maps which are in this city or the
columns of the World.
The morning paper says that Dr.
Fagan haB expressed himself as
pleased with the action of the
health authorities, in connection
with the smallpox epidemic. The
statement is absolutely untrue and
the penner of the paragraph knew
such was the case. Neither Dr
Fagan, the Woiu.n, Dr. Reddick
nor Mayor Clute have authorized
such a statement. What the facts
are Dr. Reddick may publish if he
chose. He will at the same time
doubtless thank the Miner for its
advocacy.

Up the Situation.
CENSURES MINE MANAGEMENT
Bernard Macdonald Now Gets His
Reward—Drift of Public
Opinion,
Slooan Float,
The Miners' Union of Rossland,
says the Vancouver Provinoe, has
called off the strike at the Le Roi
mine, and the whole trouble accordingly in that camp is now at
an end. Nothing has been gained
by either side to the contest, and
the community has suffered lo Buch
an extent that it will be years before it recovers the healthy, prosperous condition which it enjoyed
before the struggle, if indeed it ever
becomes a really important business center again. At the time
when the strike was inaugurated
Rossland had the leading place
among the mining camps of the interior not only in respect of its output of ore, but of its importance
commercially. Both of these would
have continued until its position
had become absolutely assured as
the central point in the mining
region. The strike and the long
continuance of the trouble not only
sent Rossland back to the position
of a struggling community, but it
gave other points a decided lift to
the front. It is more than possible
now that RoBBland will never be
able to recover the premier position which she held and which she
undoubtedly would have continued
to hold had it not been for this
struggle.
The whole contest waB unquestionably brought on, not by the
miners, but by tbe managements
of the mines, and to them is prim
arily due all the misfortune and
disaster which has occurred and
which it is satisfactory to note they
have been compelled to share with
the community to whose intereBts
they were so indifferent. One of
them, probably the worst, with his
whole staff was dismissed from
office and an investigation was
made into his conduct of affairs
which did not result particularly
favorable to himself.
The condition of Rossland today
is an illustration of the evil effects
of labor troubles, and the bankruptcy and misfortune of many of
its citizens, who a year ago were
prosperous and comfortable residents of a flourishing town, are a
commentary upon this struggle between labor and capital.
The Ruth mine will resume work
in a short time.
The force at the Hartney was
laid off dtuing the past week.
The Payne has a force of 50 men
on development work.
Thirty-five men are working on

The May, on Twelve Mile, last
week made a trial shipment of five
tons of ore.
No ore was shipped from the Arlington last week owing to the
breaking up of the road.
Another carload of ore was
shipped this week by the Neepawa,
making 60 tons since shipments
began a few weeks ago.

officials. Someone, by means of a

be of the value of $1700.
The robbery was committed in

OO   YEASS'
EXPERIENCE
"In order that the situation in
British Columbia may be fairly understood, it should be mentioned
here that relatively speaking there
is at present a small fraction of
the population engaged in agricultural pursuits or in industries
kindred thereto. Employment is
chiefly given by the mines, fisheries and lumbering enterprises,
trade, and the employments attendant and necessary to those engaged directly as primary producers. The character of these resources, generally speaking, requires a large amount of capital
for their successful prosecution.
There are few in the province who
may be termed capitalists; the
money invested is largely from
without the province. From this
it will be observed that the employers as a class are numerically
few in number. From amongst
this olass are the only avowed opponents of further restriction or exclusion, and the evidence does not
disclose any great number of them;
their objection was solely on economic grounds, and they were opposed to granting the Chinese the
rights of citizenship or to encouraging the assimilation of the races."

San Francisco, March 14.—If
any of the athletic clubs in thiB

contribute a substantial amount to
some charitable institution or public improvement.
The police commission and
board of supervisors have reported
a resolution to the effect that the
permit for the month of May be
given to the club that gives the
most money to £ public charity or
to some public improvement in a
sum not less than $5000 to be paid
before the permit iB granted.
Supervisor Curtis said the exhibition would draw at least $45,000
in gate receipts and it was but just
that the club securing so valuable
a privilege should contribute to
the public good.
For high-class family liquors go to the
International Liquor Store.
The strike has been settled a
the Le Roi mine, but it it is still
in force at the other mineB as before.
Negotiations are being carried
on with the other mining companies of the camp which have been
effected by the strike but they are
not yet completed.
Working men in outside camps
are advised to keep away from
RoBBland for the present,
aB there are more union
men at the present time here
than can secure employment until
a settlement has been effected with
the other mining companies.

Untoward Vaticinations ot
a Wayward Prophet of
the Coast.
An article in the Vancouver
Province is rather rough on this
camp. It says that it is the opinion of the coast, that this city has
been irretrievably ruined by the
action taken by the mine managements with Bernard Macdonald at
their head. It says that Rossland
has lost its proud place, that it is
unlikely to recover it, that the
citizens are bankrupt and the
place forsaken. This is an over
drawn picture. Bankrupts in
Rossland are scarce birds, there
are more of that genus on tbe
coast. That this camp has suffered
a severe blow is true, tnat it will
not recover is false. Any camp in
the Kootenays that tries to permanently excel this, even with conditions as bad as they have been,
will have a hard time.
The article was reproduced solely for the purpose of showing how
the obstinacy and ineptitude of the
mine managers is being interpreted outside of the camp. That
the leading newspaper of British
Columbia, none to favorable in its
ordinary aspects to organized labor
come! out editori.illy is a strong in-
indicationof the revulsion of feeling taking place all over the province. The only thing that the
Province does say that is too favorable,is that tlie trouble is over. On
the contrary the trouble is just

Violin Lake.
Editor Evenino Would.
Now that Rossland has a fishing
club whose object should be as
much the perpetuation of the
mountain trout as it iB of their
larger brethren, as there is just as
much, if not more, sport in the
capture of one as the other,f would
suggest that Violin lake be stocked
with this fish. The lake is within
eight miles of the town, half of
which distance  is   covered  -by   a

The development of the Coal
Mines, the installation of water,
electric light and power plants
are already arranged for. The
development by the Ashnola Coal
company of their property owned
by the Toronto Syndicate, and the
equipment of their mines, has already been arranged for, which is
a guarantee of two large payrolls
for Ashnola. Lots in Ashnola are
a safe investment and are now
selling at from $50 to $225, 25 per
cent cash, balance in three, six
and nine months without interest.
Crow's Nest shares advanced from
lie to $80 in four years. All lots in
blocks from 1 to 4 and 13 to 20 will
be advanced 25 per cent per month
until May 1, 1902, and 10 per cent
in all remaining blocks.

with a good trail, and has an area
of something over 400 acreB. A
good summer resort could easily be
established there.
It is said that there is no feed
for the trout in that lake but on
what grounds the assertion is based
I have never been able to discover.
The outlet to tho lake iB Nigger
Bar creek.a direct allluent on the
Columbia.and not the small Btream
(lowing into Trail creek a tew
miles from its mouth. Now Nigger Bar creek has cut for itself a
canon, the wildest in this vicinity
up which it is impossible for trout
to force their way. This I believe
to be the real reason why trout
are not to be found on this beautiful spot and not the alleged lack
of food. If trout could not be
planted to advantage why not try
small bass which afford good
enough sport? Pikcatoh.
