RIEL'S LIEUTENANT DEAD.
Robtherk, Man., May 21.—Gabriel
Dumont, the man who furnished the
skill to conduct the Riel Rebellion in
the Canadian Northwest, died suddenly near Batoche on Saturday morning.
His death was not expected, as he had
not been ailing previously. He was
about seventy-live years of age, but
quite robust, Dumont figured in the
rebellion as Riel's lieutenant. In
reality lie conducted the campaign
which thrilled all Canada. Afterward
he escaped to Montana, Riel being
captured and hanged. Dumont was
granted an amnesty, returned to
Batoche, and settled on a river lot.
Gabriel's Crossing is named alter him

COMING OF A BETTER DAY
In closing his recent great speecli
on the railroad rate bill, which passed
congress yesterday, Senator Bailey, ol
Texas, struck a note that finds a pop
ular echo in the States.   He said:
"Of course. I am not 60 simple
minded as to dream that the uld dnys
of am ill fortunes and greet contentment will ever cume again tu bless the
land, but I do believe in the coming
ol a better day than this, when the
man ho knows Hint he iB just and
honest will leel that he is happier in
his circumstances than the man whose
riches have been corrupted through
injustice.
"I pray for the time to come when
we shall have a new standard to guid
ourcbildren; when we shall teach llieni
that justice is better thun power, and
lead them into the ennobling fiith
that truth shall conquer falsehood in
every home where peace abides and in
every land where men are tree.
"Under the influence of higher
ideals and more unselfish aspirations
all hate and envy will vanish from our
minds, and the only evil thought
which -till must vex us will 1* the
malice which the bad shall forever
feel toward the good, When conduct
instead of fortune is made the rule by
which we judge all men. every I y In
all land, no matter how bumblo his
parentage or how limited his opportunity, will feel the thrill ol hope, nnd
tbe carpenter's Bun will know if only
he is just and brave and bonest he
will be more respected than the lon
of any millionaire who ever walsted
his father's fortune in idle dissipation
or soiled his father's name by great
excesses."
The Brandon Sun, noting the loot
that 160,000,000 ol Canadian money
has found its way to Mexico lur investment, thinks we should be ashamed
with our country still undeveloped, ti
boast of the lact, and that Canadian!
who hie themselves to distant fields
to build up concerns under a loreigi
flag, have no cause for congratulation

come up here every summer for several years past, now seems likely tube
decided in the affirmative und, booked
hy nhnust universal public opinion, u
change will probably be made .lime I,
ub suggeBlcd at llie lust council meeting hy Aid. Seluus.
A casual canvas ut the oity yesterday disclosed un almost unanimous
feeling in luvur uf the ohltngo. There
are dilliculties tn bo overcome, but
they do not appear to he insurmountable. Many people dislike n change
ol any sort, until it is an accomplished
(net, and then they accept thc situ-
atiun and marvel at their previous
nbjectiuns. The banks und public
offices nt first ut all events mnv not be
able officially to recognize it change
and until the next schedule is announced by the railways and boat
which will not be until lall, they cun
not. be expected to fall into line
There will be u question about tin
schools, alsu, but thatoan bs arranged
fur in due cnurse, if n change is decid
ed upun, there may be u little confusion when it is lirst curried out;
that wiil promptly disappear alter the
new rule bus been in force fur n little
while. The main advantage claimed
by those in luvur of the ohange ia that
we will nil have an hour more ,-f daylight in thc evening, and that the
benefit of tliis. particularly during th
pleasant summer evenings, will a
great deal inure than compensate for
any little trouble which muy occur at
the outset when the change is first
iiniii,-.
Golden adopted the chain without
any trouble and the people there
would not now be willing to return to
the old order of things. At almost
every mine in tlie country the time
now sought to be adopted in tliis city
has been the rule, and hns worked
well.
The city council has now taken up
the mutter seriously on motion ol
Alderman Selous, and a strong eff-rt
will be made to have the ohange mads
on the lirst of next month. The mayor and the aldermen are unamiously
in favor of the move,

Gsmusun, and will scloct a site tor a
sawmill and lumber yards iu the
neighborhood.
Engineer l'illsbury of the Grand
Trunk engineering staff, has engaged
a number of Indians to clear camping
grounds, and has selected a site un
Kai-en Island lor tho location ol a
wbarl and buildings.
As evidence that the work will pro-
ceed, and that Vancouver will reap
some benefit Irom it, Mr. V. M, Daloe,
the Powell street loat-builder, has
already shipped up a gig, ubout 30 leet
long, for the use ol thc surveyors, and
t, day will send up on the Csmosun a
neit gasoline launch, with a speed of
twelve knots, which should be ol material assistance to the engineers in
plying round the waters of Tuck's
Inlet.
With all these evidences, it is quite
certain that the Grand Trunk Pacific
Company means to keep luith with
the Provincial Govimment, and have
tlio construction ol wharves and other
necessary terminal work well in hand
before the 30th ot June, as the agreement called for. It would almost seem
also as il there were yet some prospect
of conitruction being started from this
end, in spile of stories to the contrary
MINING
The contract for the erection ol a
new hoist for tbe Centre Star at Rossland, has been let lo the Nordberg
Manufacturing Company, of Milwaukee, against nine competitors. The
new hoist will, when installed, be the
largest lode-mining hoist in Canada.
It will have a capacity of 1,200 horse
power and will be steam-driven. The
present hoist was found to be inadequate to the requirements of hoisting
the ore and waste of the Centre Star
and War Eagle ground through the
Centre Star shaft. The task ot installing the hoist and making the connection between the two mines, will
occupy several months' time. It is
thought, however, that it will be completed in six months from the present
time.
The lead bounty act has until 1908
to run, and it would be pertinent to
the question to add an amendment to
the original act. Thia is, to require
that the amount so paid ahull be expended in bona fide development work.
The inspector 61 lead bounties should
be required to certify in each case that
the amount drawn has been so expended. Were the amounts paid, so
expended, it would be certain to produce a better result than it has already.
There are properties in the Sandon
camp which have drawn liberally on
the Dominion treasury, and Irom all
the apparent facts in the case the
money has been spent outside the
country. In other cases it has been
put to worse uses. Were the condition
compulsory and strictly enforced, properties that have closed down might
now be open and on the shipping list.
The extra cost ol enforcing the
amended terms could come out ol the
amount allowed for the (ull expenditure. The idea is a correct one in
principle, The people who are taxed
to pay this bounty would be justified
in requesting that it be expended in a
way that would show a sure return on
tbe investment, instead of allowing
the money to go out of tlie oountry as
it has in numerous cases.—Sandon

MINISTER OFlllNES REPORT.
The annual ropnrt nl tho minister of
mines lur the year ending Docombi r

government printing olliees. It is n
bulky volume, containing a masft of

mineral output of the province to date,
and show in considerable detail the
aotual mineral production uf the past
year, as based on smelter or mill returns; also a summary uf the production ol each of the lost four years,
thus illustrating by comparison the
progress made in productive mining
during this period. Tho gross value
of the mineral produotion of the province during the year 1905 wus
$'22,461,325, the largest output ever
made by the mines of the provinco
and an increase ovor the preceding
year ol $3,483,966, of 18.4 per cent.,
while it is an increase over the yenr
1903 of over 28 per cent.

have an expensive proposition on their
hands.

WOMAN SUFFRAGE.
1 ondon, May 21.—Escorted by forty
members of parliament, nearly tour,
hundred woman suffragists, representing organizations from all parts of the
country interviewed Premier Campbell .Bannerman at the foreign office
Saturday and presented their claim
that women be allowed to vote. Only
eight members ol the numerous deputations were al uwed to speak, and
each was limited tu live minutes. But
in the aggregate of forty minutes the
premier heard about all there was to
hear in favor of female suffrage.
Thu immediate giant of woman's
rights was the unanimous demand of
the speakers, some of whom presented
to the premier their "minimum demand," claiming that immediate leg-
islat ion bestowing on women the right
to vote was necessary, and declaring a
promise to take tlie matter up at the
next session of parliament would not
satisfy them. One speaker declared
that thc women were prepared to
sacrifice their lives in behalf ol their
demands.
The gathering included ladies of
title side by side with factory cm.
ployees. The premier said be sympathized with the object ol the deputation, but asked his visitors to lie
patient until the government became
more united in favor of the extension
ol the franchise to wumen.

March F.lks of America
There is a decided increase in the
interest that outsiders are taking in
Britisli Columbia as a fruit growing
country, and a great movement is
taking place there in that connection.
Tbe land is king bought very rapidly
in the iruit (rowing districts. Places
that a year or two ago were thought
lie suitabl" only for mining arc
proving to be very valuable for orchards. A visitor to Nelson recently
said that the matter that impressed
him most was tlie interest taken by
the people ol that mining town in
iruit gardens. Tliis industry has
proven itself to lie most profitable to
the grower. The wonderful fertility
jol the soil,combined with the mildness
iol the climate, produces a perfect eon-
will ; dition which insures wonderful crops.
The enormoui territory tu the east
provides a market for every pound of
fruit ibat can Is- raised at a market
price far greater than received hy any
Other fruit growing conatry in America. At llie present time tliis market
Ii being largely supplied by Ontario,
Washington and Oregon, The distance and time laved In transportation
Irom the east and doty from the south
gives this locality a  great  advaiilsge.
Tlie Kootenay valley is what, they call
in Britisli Columbia  Moist  Valley,
Irrigation ii not required.    Ill  tlie

lummer monthi.  The mow melting
'during the auininer gives source to
| numerous creeks which are utilised
lor household purposes. The meteorological record shows the duration ol
bright sunshine is not exceeded by
any other locality. Tin: winters are
mild and it is only in occasional years
lhat, the thermon (iter reaches the /.mn
mark The (act that, tbe steamers
make daily trips throughout the year
is. sufficient evidence nf the  mildnoss
