trees have already been secured and a
system of planting will be adopted
whereby each street will differ from
the next one in 'he species of trees
planted iu it. We under-Hand that J.
Maley will be placed in charge ol the
work, wbicli bring the case, as Mr.
Maley is a practical gardener and hor-
t'.cult uralist, tbe city will get tbe best
results. Boulevarding is one of the
chief features of many European continental cities, besides others allovir
the globe, and its value to a cily not
only from a monetary poiut ol view
cannot be overestimated. Tbat thiB
schema of ln-autilyiug Kevelstoke is a
generally popular one, cannot be de
nird, and when tbe boulevards are
complettd and the tree* plauted the
attractiveness of the city will be
greatly enhanctd. While tbe tax on
each citizen directly benefitting by
the work will not be excessive still at
the same time tbe public as a whole
must assist in protecting the lawns
and trees by preventing any rubbish
or n [use from accumulating on them
as is friquently the case today. Strict
pound regulations will bave to be enforced and the nonsensical and uncalled practice of herding cattle on the
streets must be abolished.
Tbe followiug streetB will be boule-
varded: McKenzie Avenue Irom Hrd
to 8'h streets; on lird, 4th. 5th nnil
(ith street?, trom McKenzie Avenue to
Vernon Avenue; on Douglas street
from King street to the C.P.K. track.
FIRE CHIEFS' CONVENTION
New Officers are Elected—Next
Meeting at Revelstoke
New Westminster, Oct. 2.—The
closing session of the H.C. Fire Chiefs'
and Firemen's convention was held
last night in the council chamber.
Several valuable papers on subjects of
interest to the general public as well
as the firemen were read by various
members, and officers were elected Ior
the ensuing year. A vole of condolence
for the family of the late Capt. Acker-
man, who was once chief of the New
Westminster brigade was passed.
Tbe billowing officers Ior the next
year were elected: President, Chief
Fink, Cranbrook; vice-preBid»iit, Chief
McDotlgall, Fernie; treasurer, Chief
Knight, Chilliwack; secretary, Chief
lleasy, Nelson, reelected; executive
Committee, Chiefs Savage, ('rand
Forks, ("hiet Foote, Revelstoke, and
Cbi"f 1,sit Iiiiiii of Kaslo.
The 1909 convention of I! 0, Fire
Chii fs wi'l be held at Revelstoke.
The ipieation of publishing a repott
of the papers read at the 1908 convention coin posed of Chiefs Savage, Fink
and Fonte, who will also take up Ibe
dm a" of providing ways and means if
it is decided to publish the reports.
Among the papers vend was that by
Chief Sivage ol (jrand Forks on "Protection against Fire," making a strong
appeal against carelessness in build
ings and tbe manner in which people
often courted disaster. Chief Foote of
Revelstoke also read an interesting
paper on "Fire Pieveution," holding
out some valuable bints and suggestions guarding against lire.
Hther papers were read us follows:
"Duti s and Responsibilities of Fire,
men,'' Chiel Cnnvell; "Firemeu's Coo
veutlons," Chief Knight; False
Alarms," "Firemen's Conventions aud
Associations," "An Ounce of Prevention," and "Modern Fire Escapes."
A Pretty True Picture
It ia the business ol h newspaper
mail to boom lite town (or ull it is
worth, inonlli alter nioiitb, and tbn
see fin worth ol printing go out of
town because IH cents can be saved
by so doing. It is llie business ol the
newspaper to give every local enterprise enthusiastic, and frequent send-
offs,' and then catch tbe mischief because be failed to record the fact that
some prominent citizen has had his
delivery wagon painted. To subscribe
liberally to every public, charitable
and church enterprise, advertise tbem
(or nothing, pay his own way to everything, and then be called prejudiced
and mean spirited because a column
is not devoted to that particular
affair. Do you wonder that there are
so many cranks in tbo newspaper
business? It is bound to make either
a crank or a philosopher out of a man.

Local Assessment
The assessment figures for the year
are now available and the totals show
a large uml marked increase ovt r lust
year. The revision of tbe assessment
roll was a thing which was badly
needed in Kevelstoke, for in many
cases previously, certain properties
which had been built oo or otherwise
improved had been overlooked and
erroneous values placed on them. The
values as assessed this year are more
in accordance with what they should
be. Tin 1 llowiug figures will show
the total  i-iltics :
Land assi     ocnt .-(; 645,037 60
Improved cots   842,8411 0(1
Total $1,488,483 50
The following table, shows the assessment of lands, etc., outside the city
limits, but within the school district
for school purposes :
Land asaessnu nt !fl68,(i0'l 00
Improvements     20,000 00
Total       .178,500 00
Last y ar was tbe first lime that
tbe a.-si sMtieiit bad exceeded the
million doll ,r mark- and tbis year tbe
increase ia considerably above the
average.
