Council Meeting I Police Court
(.Special Mcoting)
The, lull council was present
at U'o special meeting held last
evening to consider what portion the city will be obligod to
pay in connection with the macadamizing and laving cement
sidewalks on Lonsdale Ave. between i,Uh and iXth streets.
His Worship Mayor May pro-
sided. After a discussion which
lasted till after n o'clock, it
was finally decided that lhe
city's proportion should bc only the street intcrsei-tions. This
was intended to settle not onlv
the point in qaestion, but to establish a rule that will be applicable to all works ol a similar nature in the city hereafter.
Engineer Hanes introduced the
question oi placing a main
storm sower down the length ol
Lonsdale avenue not only to
relieve the pressure on that
street but to accommodate all
cross streets which naturally
drain on that thoroughfare He
said that tlu-rc was practically
little use to make any permanent improvements until some
means was provided to carry
this surplus water awav otherwise it would soon weak the
surface ofl the street. He estimated that the cost would lie
soiin-where about Ji.S.ooo. Of
this amount the council were
not sure as to what would lathe city's share to comply with
l.iu- stipulations laid down in
the Municipal Clauses Act. It
was eventually referred to the
engineer to bring in an estimate
of the cost, and a report on the
proportions of thc cost to In-
borne by the city and local improvement or if the city would
be obliged to bear the whole
cost from the lact that it wa.s
a work which benefitted quite a
large portion ol the city and
consequently would not Inequitable to charge against llic
property in the immediate vicinity.

COL. STEELE KKLATKS
.STORY OF MOUNTED
POLICE
Following is the address delivered by Col. Steele to the
Fort William Canadian Club :
Mr. Chairman and Gentlemen—I luel very highly honored
at being asked to meet you today. It gives me very niueli
pleasure, and I hope lurther
tliat in any little tilings I may
wish to say you will bear witli
me, inasmuch as 1 am not u
public speaker, and have never
made any pretensions ol the
sort. 1 cau assure you tiial
anything I tell you is on good
authority, and is absolutely
correct and can be proved as
such.
A great many ol our people
have been under the uiipiessiou
and a great many ol our clergy
have bolieved that are never
had in the northwest what
might be called a "wild aud
wooly west" in the United Stales ; that is a place where a
desperado gets iu, and when
Crimea of the most awful character have been couinntieil.
But we know better. We know
that there was a very dilleruu
state oi allairs to what is (ea
erally bt-licvod.
The Beguiuiiig
Iu 1N70 a large lorce had io
go up to establish order at W in-
nipeg and see thai Hritish subjects and others were propel ly
protected. Tliey were succcui-
ud by a lorce that remained
ther! live years until thc Norlh-
WOth Mounted Police were properly established. Although
they were stationed al \\ lniupeg
there live years uutil the Northing iii the west that were ol a
very serious character. 'Ihere
was a time iu the wesl when 110
one could go west ot Kooai
Jaw or wesl of yu'Appelle to
the Rocky mountains without 1
large escort, without the chance
ol having his scalp taken, lhe
Hudson s Hay Coinpanv cslalr-
lishisl a post that cost them ten
thousand pounds on the Saskatchewan l.ul the Indians
wouldn't allow them to have a
post there, and ihey utterly destroyed it. They established
Little Bow lort above Calgary
and that was destroyed twice.
There was no while man dared
to travel through lhe Blaekleel
country or Aseiniboiue counuv
11 a large parly out looking for
buffalo got iulo lhe plains and
lound Indiana ihey killed everyone ilnn met, tor ii any lniii.ui
escaped to give the news they
were destroyed themselves.
Thc Blackfeet
ln 1871 there were BUcUoot
Indians on the North Saskatchewan and Mr. Christie lured
an escort to protect his party,
but they were murdered 111 tiie
presence of the chief factor and
the scalps taken to Fort l-'.d-
monton. There was a place
called Dead Man's lake, nicknamed because the Indians went
there with their whiskiv .nnl
the most frightful orgies look
place. That was alter the Red
River expedition late in iln
70's. In the south the Hudson's Bay company had no power whatever. They had >;r(.ii
milueiico in the north ; but with
the Blackieet and others the.v
ludnjt and any American
People who had settled in Montana after the Civil War, anu
who had been used to scenes m
blood during the Civil war went
into the southern part ol Alberta and Saskatchewan and
around Maple Creek and established posts for the, sale ol
whiskey to Uic natives,
llie Whiskey Traders
There was a fori named Fort
Whoopup that was quite a
strong place, ll mounted a
couple of guns alld has sluing
gates, with large rooms 111 the
square, and chimneys all barred so that the Inilians could
nol clamber down and get 111 ;
and the whiskey was traded
ihiough a hole-111 the wall. A
bullalo robe was pushed 111 and
a drink ol whisky handed oul—
a bullalo robe lor a drink nl
whiskey. A pony could be
bought for 1 quart ot whiskey
and il was poor whiskey too.
The robes had to be escorted out in the spring, lest lhe
Indians should attack the Wig-
oils ami take them back. Tluy
had to gel a strong lorce* 01
men to take the-iu out. Al last
they found lhat Imported rilles
weie coining 111 and lhe Indians
were,getting them. T, C. Powell & Bros, were a lirin trading
with the ludians. They were
trading with ammunition, but
not Willi liquor and were giving
a fairly good price. The whiskey traders raised a corps to
pul lhat linn out of business.
It was led by a man named
Jack O'Neil. His right name
was Robert C. Lilner. Ile drove-
all the legitimate traders out
of tho country. Powell I Bins,
had to leave and only the
whiskey trading people went in
there. In those years the Indians fought in all that coun-
try*
The Battle ol Leihbridge
Piapot went one year willi
a large band of Crees and Assi
niboines to where l.eilibridge
now stands. He camped ou tim
other side ol tbc Belly river.
lile then sent scouts up lo tho
j forks ol the Belly and St.
j Mary's rivers. At the forks
they found some families ol
utv old and very young people.
Thev scalped all except a boy
who ciscapcd aud went up the
river lo Buell Harris, who i.s
siill living in the west and who
was a captain at that time. He
:sent a boy up to the l'legan
camp where there wire $00 warriors. Jerry Potts who served
' in the Mounted Police a long
time and was a noted scout .md
guide and interpreter, was voted chiel for thc occasion. He advanced on Piapot's ramp and
'look it by surprise at dawn.
Thev had a desperate light then
and 4S0 dead Assiniboiiies .unl
Crees were loiintcd ihere afterwards by Harris liuiisell. Tin v
drove the Indians across the
lord below Lethbridge and had
a light on the other side Potts
took hi scalps that day, though
it was not a very civilized thin-.-

constitution and rules and these
are lu be out of the printer s

the program for the scusun will
be outlined and active aria-ngc-
nietits begun lur the initial regalia which promises to shadow anything uf its kind in lormer years.
The committee are anxious
before the lull details arc- in Uic

RENAMING Till- CITY
The question of renaming
North \ ancouvcr city was wel
ventilated by the- members oi
the city council at their .Holiday evening,s silling. Aid.
aSclmltz. was the lirsl spokesman and the one to inlroduu
the subject. He opened his remarks wiih drawing attention
to the lact that the tunic
.Norlh Vancouver would alwavs
lie confused with Vancouver and
hi considered thai there wa.s no
time like the present to reiniilv
llus dillicully. The- question
w as thoroughly discussed and
many opinions bolh in lavor and against a change wuc
expressed. The argument pm
iorih againsl the change wa>
llial il would work a gu-ai
hardship on the cilv at this
Ume and would cause much contusion to tlu- detriment ci tlu-
cilv. The opinion was also pul
lorward that dunging the
name lioin ils assoualioii with
Vancoaver would have ■ depreciating eiiect oii the ciu's borrowing |iuwer ill the linancial
markets of the world. Null tag
delinile was arrived nt, huvuvei

ilused ill the meantime bv tlu
suggestion ol Alderman Irwin
that il In- left in abeyance and
the advisability ol such a COUCH
