proud and was glad to see that tbeir
work was going on smoothly in spite
ot the unfortunate strike of tlieir
brother unions.
Aid. Lefeaux re* lied tn the toast of
the Province referring to its resources
and iheir relationship to Ibe people in

urged that the workers shnuld take
more interest in Ibe Province snd its
wealth and pointed nut that all should
use their brains as well ns tlieir hands
for their ultimate success.
W. W. Foster in responding to the
toast of the C.P.R. briefly reviewed
the pioneering of railroads in England
and Canada und the vast strides it had
made. He eaid that the C.P.R. had
aided in the development of Ihe country and its resources, and that the
people should I e proud of ihe C.P.R.
staff nnd especially the maintenance
of nay, who weie a line body of men,
built up by the agency of the labor
unions. He pointed out that friction
aud bod feeling should he elimiuatid
between the men, the officials and Ibe
company and in saying this he referred lo to Ihe excellent fee'ing of

the feeling between the company and
the men was most cordial. He said
th t tbe best labor is in the end the
most iniititnliie, for high wages derive
tli*' best results and pays best. All
the men wanted was fair treatment
and no more. He regretted the present strike and concluded by eulogising
the progiess in temperance among the
men who were thereby developing
both muscle and brain.   (Cheers).

asserted that tbe credit of bringing
the thing about was d-e to tbe energy
of Mr. Lindmark in bis persistent
light for a bridge.
Auld Lang Syne brought a very
pleasant social function to a close,
FRACAS AT C. P. R. DEPOT
Questionable Authority of C. P.
R. Constables
Considerable indignation was created thin morning shortly before noon
by the action of n speci 11 O. P. R.
constable. It appears that G. Lilley,
a machinist, and one of the strikers,
had occasion lo go to the C. P. It
depot platform to see a friend, an
engineer on one of tlie C.PR. bunts,
off on the train. The constable in a
manner brutal snd insolent, arrested
the machinist for trespassing on the
company's property and locked him
up in the C.P R. gaol. After looking
into the matter the C P.R. official
ordered his-release and put an end to
the disturbance. ..This is not tbe first
time that this constable has caused
trouble, and if any further occurrences
tike place the men will not stand for
it. Stories of trainmen and engineers
being molested by these constables are
frequent and trouble seems likely.
Tbeir right to play, fast and loose witb
our citizens bas been questioned, and
public indignation is very strong.

Adjustment Probable—Men and
Officials Discuss Situation
Winnipeg. Aug. 28.-—The Canadian
Pacific Railway strike affecting the
mechanical trades is about In be
settled. Tbe company has decided it
has had sufficient of the present conditions existing on their system snd

tious proceeded so far that the president then sent foi G. J, Bury, assistant general manager, who has been in

THE TRAFFIC BRIDGE
It is gratifying to know that the
government has recognised Revel-
Btoke's  claim   for a   trallic  bridge
cross the Columbia river at this
point and that it will be an accom
plislu'il fact within the year,   Rev-
stoko has. had it hard and almost
bitter time in the light for this
bridge and felt confident, that, in
the long run the claims which were
put forward with nil justness and
genuineness, for this public utility,
would be considered fair by the
government, We in Revolstoke
feel that n bridge is needed for tlio
further development and expansion
of the city ami the benefit that will
accrue both to the city and district
at largo cannot, be overestimated.
It was only natural that, the gov*
eminent, after considering the matter in all its lights should come to
ibe conclusion that communication
by trallie bridge over the river was
necessary and we can only sny that
ihu decision of the government is
endorsed by every resilient in the
district. The government can
readily tell where public works nre
necessary, and thnt there is necessity for h bridge here cannot be
denied. They are long sightt1
enough to see that the district will
develop, and that development will
mean increased revenue to the
treasury.

CITY WATER SUPRLY
The   ri-ci-nt    long   spell   of  dry
weather which   Kevelstoke   has experienced   ims   been instrumental
in opening  the eyes of   the   Revelstoke people to the serious question
of   a   continuous and ample water
supply  under   all   conditions that
may arise and under the  most trying circumstances.      It is our duty
here to vehemently deny any rumor
or idle tale   that our water supply
is in bad shape, and to that we give
the   He   direct.      Throughout  the
long spell  ot   drought   il  stands to
r-asoii that without the   source   "f
supply being replenished the water
must of ni.-ces.-ity decrease.    Hut in
our case in Revelstoke thi.- did not
happen, and   the momentary -care
and   alarm   that    thi-  Bupply was
failing was  caused   entirely by the
|>eopi'-   themselves   and   by   their
thoughtless   and   careless  waste of
w iter   at a time   when the supply
should hnve lieen given a chance to
increase and not Ik-  drained off  ns
quick as tbe tank tilled up.      Even
with the present system there need
never he any danger of  tbe supply
failing, but the public must in -uch
weather   ar   has   lieen recently experienced   here, use   a   little common sense and forethought,remembering   that   if   tin".- all u-is their
garden hose at  the Batne time the
•supply   cannot   keep   up   with it.
We say  this   chiefly on account of
tire   protection reasons, it lieing nil
important that  onr city pressure
be   maintained   for   that  purpose.
Since the  inauguration of   the city
water system, there has been practically no addition or improvement
in just proportion to the growth of
the town, and   the  late trouble regarding  water  for lawns, etc., and
the   need   of   warning   the publio
against wasting the water has only
now really cast a new phase of the
situation before the people, and tin-
necessity of  securing other sources
to increase the supply.     The question of  tapping   8-mile   creek hits
been   frequently    discussed,   with
more   or   less   earnestness, but we

VERITABLE
WONDERLAND
Victoria Park at Revelstoke the
Wonderful Natural Play-
Ground 7000 feet above the
Sea—Magnificent Scenery
Tbere mellow, golden summer days
with their bright glad sky, Iho shout
of the dancing brook, the song of the
happy hints, the sunlight that glorifies
the hills and mountains and ennuis
shimmering down through uncounted
pines, lira and tamaracs, willow and
poplar away Irom the superheated
town, forget for a little while the
worries and cuies of htisiiiess and let
your soul thrill and glow under the
wondrous touch ot divine harmony
that Tills all nature.
Revolttokc can oil', r Ihe snliiude
and grand' urnt nature in comparison
far exceeding the old and hackneyed
tourist resorts all along the line ot the
C P.R. Revelstoko has succeeded by
perseverance and energy in acquiring
what is perhaps the lluest and most
magnificent natural  park in the west.
Several years have passed since Mt.
Victoria was first exploited, and it is
only within recent date that its beauties, its wonderful possibilities as a
tourist and p'easure resort and its
superb scenery have attracted tbe attention of the citizens. Five years
ago the lirst trip up tlie mountain
was made. C R. Macdonald, J. Devine,
J. Dallas and R. Gordon being the
pioneer explorers on these several
excursions tn the summit and siuce
that lime the alluiements of the
glorious scenery at the summit and
the v/ondeiful expanse of magnificent
rolling park lands that stie'ch for
miles- aud miles till the mount..ins
rear their walls in the form of a vast
natural barrier, have created enthusiasm that has spread until the construction of a trail from the city up
the hiil side was accomplished.
The construction of a trail although
iuch work has been discussed for several years, was brought about during
the present civic ministry, who with
tbe Tourist Association have worked
hard to secure this unrivalled park for
the city. Lindmark Trail will be
known as the tourist attraction of tbe
west, and the f'.llowing description
may interest others of our citizens
besides tourijis who have not yet
essayed the ascent. And first let it be
said tbat the trail is cut, and cut well
into tbe slopes of the mountain where
the easiest grades were obtainable and
in no case is the trail so steep that undue fatigue Io horse, if the traveller
wishes to ride up, or to pedestrians, is
experienced.
Zig-zag up tbe face of Mt. Victoria,
the trail offers no dangers, it lieing
wide and flat. Who, after the enthusiasm of the first ascent through binsh
and shrub, cannof find pleasure in the
green woojjj, the gently breeze playing
soft and low, in lying amid the sylvan
scene, wli-re shadows dark and sunlight sheen alternate enme and go
between the long droopii g houghs of
the trees, or where the dense groove
receives no sunlight from above.
Into the Liy lie and breathing air,
Into the solemn wood
Solemn and silent everywhere
Nature with folded hands seemed there.
In front and Mow unfolds itself the
marvellous panorama that almost
takeB the breath away with wonder-
Mapped out in even anil, symmetrical
lines the city lies spread resting in tbe
sunahine, nestling in tbe valley,secure
and mill. KisiiiK up sheer ieyond,
tower the glistening crags and glaciers
of Begbie and MeArthur, their serried
and rugged summits, shagvy and
heavy with perpetual snow, flashing
and scintillating like gigantic gems.
In contrast to tbe sombre shadows
of tbe valley, winds the Columbia
river in a silver snake-like streak,
threading its way into tbe dim hill
round the Arrow Lakes. No finer
view of RevelBtoke can be obtained
than from thia elevation, and from
bere can be seen ibe wonderful possibilities of the city's growth along the
rich area ot flat lands that stretch
away on either side of the Colon.hia.
In tbis valley we have tbe makings of
a great city, a city that will lead tbe
interior, and surrounded by a setting
Buch as cannot be elsewhere compared
with.
Pausing for a few moments to drink
in the scene, the traveller continues
the ascent, every turn of the trail
bringing fresh wonders of nature in
varied forms. Upward and upward
through glades and leafy bowers,
round rocky crags and ever changing
lights and sbodows, tbe traveller if he
hss a soul for nature cannot but feel
enthusiastic at the scene. Should
thirst overtake him, at many points
on the trail silver brooks from their
(ull lavers pour down in white cascades, ice cold and sparkling, babbling low smid the tangled woods
down through moss grown stores, to
furnish the city witb beautiful sup
plies of water cool and limpid, water
tbat for its purity cannot be equalled.
I    Still again, tbe view, even more ex
panslve as the  elevation  is reached,
lint Id- Is i s i he t a viler stands nn
the em luei.ee a I uve Ibe.t'liy »• d cil led
Mac loiniid's H'uli' Kmm lids point
the hi-t sight ..I Ibe eily valley is
tyillgllt and now tluire ilses up a mist
from the river enveloping th-* valley
in wreaths m d «Inapt- oi grey lhat
fade away into purple hills beyond
Soon Dull us Pass is reached and a Hue
Hat where flowers of every viirieiy grow
and where the traveller can rest a
little bet re making the final "bit" fur
tho summit. Shade trees make walking or riding delightfully cool and
there is a quiet spirit in these woods
and overhead unrolls on high the sky's
splendid dome where through a sapphire sea the sun sails like a golden
galleon.
A tew moro turns and sharp ascents
and the traveller emorgos from tho
woods, upon the plateau near Grass
Lake, tho summit of Ml. Victoria tho
veritable root of tho Selkirks Before
and on ull Bides unfolds a scene never
to be forgotten, a scene superb in its
magnificence. To the north-east
stretches out the valloy of tbo lllecillewaet river with the silver streak
glistening in ils deep canyon, rushing
in its mad course to the Columbia,
and glistening in the sunlight, the
rugged sister peaks of Twin Butte rear
tlieir heavy summits to the clouds.
To the north lie the bead-waters of
8-mile creek, where the scene is split
up into glaciers, deep ravines, high
preoipieces and lofty crags and peaks
To the west the heavy timbered depths
of Jordon and Eagle Puss look dim
and mysterious, Rank upon rank of
serried warriors, their virgin snowcapped brows unsullied by human foot
stretch away in tne dim distance
while the forest-clad slopes and foot
hills undergo kaleidosc. pic changes in
light and shadow. Here can be seen
the glacier of tlie Silver Tip Falls and
away to the northwest rolls the mighty
Columbia visible for 40 miles winding
its way through forest and canyon.
Some idea of the nature cf thia vast
plateau on the mountain summit,
can be gained when it is realized that
there sre nver 3000 acres of open park
land, undulating and sweeping, cut in
some pbces by gentle grassy si ipes
and ravines,carpeted witb soft emerald
green, dotted witb clumps of bushes
and here and there stately pi.es and
firs rearing their noble heads, casting
deep shadows over the heather-clad
sweeps.
On leaving Grass Lake the traveller
passes through nature at her beBt; be
walks on a veritable carpet of flowers
of every kind and description, their
color and shade blending harmoniously
together without contrast. This conglomeration ot color would puzzle even
the most skilled artist, and surrounded
by all the glorious green of tbe grass
witb tbe more sombre hue of the
clumps of trees behind make a picture
which pen, pencil or brush finds a
difficult task to portray.
Glorious   flowerets    in   llie   sunlight
shining,
Blossoms flaunting Im tho eye of day.
Such a natural playground, situated
among unrivalled icenery, lies nt the
very door of Revelstoke and cannot
but arouse enthusiasm in the least,
romantic of in. Water there iB in
abundance all over tbe pirk. Protection Lake, discovered by O. R. Mac-
donald and J. J. Devine in August,
1902, is a picturesque mountain tarn
and fed by crystal clear springs On
going north the panorama spreads
out still more, aud the splendid view
is even more entraucing as fresh gnl
lies, glaciers and snow-capped peaks
come into view. This rich heritage to
RevelBtoke is as yet not really known
or understood, for to understand nature one must study nature and allow
her to show herself. This paradise in
tbe clouds, where the air is fresh and
cool, and the very height above human
habitation lends awe inspiring
thoughts, will booh attract thousands.
On and on witb new scenes and wonders ever rising up before one, this
wonderful region calls the explorer
down the steep slopes across to Miller's
Park and Miller's Lake, where can be
found the rarest forms of color and
prismatic effects. Suoh is this natural park wherein there is nothing
but beauty and richness, tbe valuab e
attraction to Revelstoke, the health-
giving play ground for young and old.
Our citizens have realized to some
extent the wonders snd scenic mar.
vels of Victoria Park and many have
walked and ridden up tbe Lindmark
Trail, and drank the beauties of nature to tbe full, but none can ever tire
of visiting such scenes or of camping
in the region. What could be better
than after the exploration of tbo day
to spend tho night amid the scented
flowers and grass, where mosquitoes
are unknown, and sleep tbe sleep of
restful tiredness under tbe stars 7000
feet above tbe sea, and over five miles
away from the hot and dusty city, to
awake next morning when the heaven's wide arch was glorious with tbo
sun's returning march. The clouds
beneath bathed in light as tbey cling
midway round tbe wooded slopes and
in their fading glory shine like boats
in battle overthrown, as many a pina-
ole witb shifting glance through the
grey   mii-i   thrusts   up Its rosy peak.
The ioil ol ui ml   Is lifted and below
glows the rich vil'ey and rivers. Such
a sunrise, ns Co ui wi'.g orb slowly
rises, gilding Hi" c.ltl snow peaks and
shedding a rich lire on crng and sum
mil, can be seen Oil Mt. Victoria.
Again as t. e s'li sinks the traveller
oan sit round his camp gre watching
the red i|i,ir]<H nnd ribbons of llsii'e
slinotin; upward, Night, haa come
and the lustre shed by the rising
iiiiiiiii as she unveils her brow in the
red sky, rests on tho faints blue hills
and in her sad mellowing light the
valley sloops. The silver light is
spreading. Far above encompassed
with their thin cold atmosphere the
mountains uplift their snowy heads
glowing with ooldor beauty, Tho spirit
of these solitudes, tho soul that dwells
within these steep and lofty places
speaks a mysterious language of its
Qivti.
"lt thou art worn and hard beset
With sorrows that thou would'st forgot,
If   thou   would'st  read a  lesson that
will kcop
Thy heart from   fainting and thy soul
from Bleep,
Co   to   these   woods   and everlasting
hills."
