EMPLOYEES Grant Hall Tells What Company Want in New Rating Winnipeg, June 5.—Before the con ciliation board Grant Hall for the C. P. R. agreed to go on yesterday, taking the eastern and western mechanics' complaints together. Roughly speaking, he said, only livo per cent, ol the men were affected under the new schedule. It was not I lie intention of the company to interfere with the good men, The company wanted three classes ol tioilerinakers. If this relief could not be obtained tbey wished the boilermakers' helpers abolished. The company would simply put in a laborer for that was what he was. Asked as to the meaning of a committee of representation he said a committee ol representation was a certain number ol men iu every shop to deal with the foreman or master mechanic. It was objected that two or three men in every shop should do tbis, taking up the company's time, the time consumed by the committee being charged to the company. The company requires that ono ol the parties affected by grievances should ap pear in every case. Other grievances set down for inquiry had reference to hours ol work, rcdiiotion of expenses and employment ol apprentices, as to which complaint, was made against tbo filling ol shops with apprentices, none of them getting an opportunity to loarn the trade proporly. Hall intimated tbat among witnesses he proposed to call were tbe general foreman at Rovelstoke, the master mechanic at Calgary, the district master mechanics at Moose Jaw and Kenora, Master Mechanic Hon- gerlord ol Winnipeg and others. This morning, oil the stand, Hun- gerford gave a summary of changes iu the rates involved in tho changes proposed. 01 202 machinists 25 were reduced, of 30 boilermakers reduced, of 68 blacksmiths reduced, and ot 28 molders reduced. 19 wore 8 were 6 wore Great Disaster.

From authenticated reports from the prairie it is evident thnt the outlook for the coming grain season is as promising as it has been for many years, aud a feeling of elation and hope has filled all the farmers over tho prospects of a bumper crop. In almost every section of the grout wheat-raising country, the crops are coining on very IftBt and the reports show that conditions never looked better. In no case doeB there appear to be any likelihood of failure, and the weather and elements have been propitious in bringing on the grain which is woll up. Rain has fallen in almost every district in sufli- cient quantities and the general prospects augur well for a magnificent harvest. It can be readily recognised and understood what a rich harvest will mean to Canada as a whole, and how the wave of prosperity will flow into every channel. Farmers on the prairie who after bad seasons have scarcely sullicient money to purchase the necessities of life, much less luxuries* will _now be enabled to launch out and erect buildings which they bave not hitherto been able to do. Actuated by the possession of capital the farmers will procure such things as are necessary for the further development of their lands which will mean increased business and commerce in almost every department. The Buccess of the harvest this season will mean renewed vigor in trade and its far-reaching influences will be felt in British Columbia, whoBe product, will find ready markets in the prairie sections. It is anticipated that the demand for lumber this year will be unprecedented, and that building on a large and extensive scale will be carried on, so that instead ol the mills of this province being forced to stock up their yards with lumber, the enormous demand will necessitate their running dav and night to keep pace wilh tbeir orders. It is calculated that the coming season on the prairies will turn the tide of dull times and create a return of prosperity. The farmers will buy wlmt they need and markets will aiJiiiii ho open. The lumbering FOREST PRESERVATION Important Factor in Harboring Natural Resources. The following BiiBHestioiiB were held out by Q 0. Buchanan, of Kualo, in a recent lecture on forest preservation: That tho acquisition of timber lands oven under 21 year licenses, is likely to be a good investment. That B C. should have a forestry commission, and that every acre of timber lands, the title of which remains in the province, should lie turned over to the control ol such commission. That fire protection should bo tinder the supervision of a body of men of the training, discipline and freedom from political inlluence ol the Northwest Mounted Police. That the lirst department of the B, C. University to he equipped should be—not one ot mining, nor agriculture, nor ot law, nor even ot arts, hut ot forestry. Tluitthc endowment lands should be turned over to such depart ment That funds should lie provided (chargeable against tho lands) tor their cial governments, and tliia will later be supplemented by a special investigation ot districts in regaid to which no reliable information is available. TIMBER LICENCES May Returns Show Considerable Decrease Tbe returns tor timber licences fi r May nre available and and show a con sidcrable _eoreii_e over the figures ob 111 ined last year. In December, for instance, the revenue from timber sources amounted to $234,451.07, while in January they went as high as $347,206 65. For May the figures are •11164,267. The drop in the receipts is due, ot course, to the policy of the government in placing a reserve upon all unreoorded timber. The revenue derived Irom the annual licence fees still, however, continues to cut a very considerable figure in the provincial budget. The detailed returns are: Timber licences eaBt of the CBtu'ndes 46(1 Timber licenses wont of the FLOWERING MOSS. protection against fire, and lor the beginning, at least, cf the work ot forest improvement.

While we do not suggest that the merchants ciose their stores, yet what we do most assuredly advocate is that every business house in town spend a little time and energy on decorating their buildings and giving a gala and festive atmotpbere to the town in general.

Perhaps the groatost fault of the tribe* of Kevolsloke is their utter listlessnefs, their apathetic indifference. a» a rule, to progress, their cold-blooded desire to see things done as long as they do not have to do it themselves, and then grumble at those who do the work and accuse them of graft.

His knowledge of B. C. conditions, his wide experience as a grower of fruit and ornamental trees, the ample facilities nt his com mand, and a natural nptitude for this line of work, have all helped in the upbuilding of a very extensive business. Aside altogether from the patriotic acpect of the case and, other things being equal, the "grown in B. C. brand" should appeal to us, there aro decided advantages in procuring nursery slock from a local concern. The trees are uot so long in shipment, cor is fumigation necoBsary as in the case of imported Btock, and further, the local nurseryman relies upon your continuous support—self interest dictates generous treatment of his patrons. M. J. Henry employs no travelling salesmen. His catalogue—one of the host nursery catalogues in America— is sent free to all intending purchasers This is his silent salesman. Although his sales extend from Dawson City to Oregon, and from the west coast ol Vancouver Island to the Maritime Provinces, this business has boon developed entirely through advertising in tho local papers ol the country Surely this is proof—if proof were needed—of the value of the local paper as an advertising medium. ILLECILLEWAET RIVER NEAR REVELSTOKE. time was made on the homewaid trip the climbers reaching town at 4 30 p m. on Wednesday, having been 26 hours on the hills. Among the interesting features of the trip might be mentioned, first, the heavy bush work among the lower hills accompanied by tbe afternoon beat und the sweet fellowship of countlesB uiOEquitoee. Second, the heavy snow work above the timber line making the climbing slow and difficult. Third, the best feature ol the climb was reaching the summit of Tilley around by the ridge from McKenzie summit. Nothing difficult was found, but tbe wild scenery down from the walls ol Tilley and the splendid snow cornices at this season of the year made this part of the climb very interesting. Fourth, the climbers had an interesting and thrilling experience for a few moments coming down the snow slopes of McKenzie. Rev. Robertson was leading down a good glissade which started a snow slide and in a moment a magnificent slide swept down a thousand feet into a broad field below. Mr. Robertson for the moment wae thrown with the tumbling suow but by a quick struggle managed to right himself face forward and keep himself on top of the slide, while by good use of the ice axe in driving it into the underlying stratum of snow which was not sliding he kept himself from going aB fust as three and a half acres in extent, and offered as a lease to them upou condition that they erect a suitable building upon tbe land within a year's time. Another matter of importance discussed was tlie advisability of getting a oh.irter from the Dominion government. Final action, however, will not .be taken until the annual meeting, which dikes place this ye r at Rogers Pass, July 7 to July 15. In all the club has issued 67 certificates this year. It is very gratifying to note that over one hundred new members bave been added during the last year, bringing the present total enrolment to over lour hundred. A new item that will interest the climber iB that to now obtain a certificate it is necessary to climb 2,500 feet above timber line, on truly alpine glacier hung peak. The Rev. James Outram, of Crescent, Colorado, and author of "In the Heart of the Canadian Rockies," was proposed as honorary member, and steps will be taken to inform R.v. Outram of the honor about to be conferred upon him by the Canadian Alpine club. The limit for this year's camp is placed at 200, exclusive of attendants, and it is expected that some 80 tents will provide quarters for the club.

NO ANNEXATION Canadians Are Justly Proud of Being Just What They Are. The following comment, which ap pea red in a recent issue of tlio New York Evening Post, will interest people in the Dominion ;— " Canadians, instead ol showing a passionate anxiety to |be annexed, go Bu fur ii iw inlays as to conic s uth ol •11) degrees and dine in Btate and proclaim the fact that they are proud of being just what they are. At a recent dinner ol the Canadian Club of New York—one gtieat—it is true, he happens to lie deputy speaker of the Canadian House of Commons—pleased his hearers by declaring that, though he was of French origin, ho was proud to he a subject of tho British Empire. And, as a mutter of (act, if over there was a chance that Canada would make a change ol dominant partners, the event has been removed into the in. definite future by the action ot another Canadian of French origin, who for 12 years baa been premier of the Dominion government. Cum la's patriotism is stronger now than it has ever been, and that in spite oi the fact tbat the rapid growth uf her west, upon which her buoyant hopes su largely rest, has been due in a very Urge measure to settlerB from the United Statee. But these irr migrants, us the London Times pointed out the other day, learn to bear easily the British allegiance, while they constitute, naturally, an added tie of friendship between the two countries.
