The bombard meiit limti'd all day. Nothing has been learned regarding the rumor of Colonel Baden-Powell's death, nor is thore anything tending to show how long the general advance towards Pretoria will be delayed. The Boer announcement of tbo re- ooenpation of Sinithflold by the Bnrgb- n'H. just received, is no news, as the ���amll British foroe of tbat place withdrew after the Reddersburg affair. A special despatch from Klands laagte, dated yesterday, lays: "Fighting wae renewed beyond Elandslaagte this afternoon. Thu Boors steadily advanced upon tha British positions. There was a continuous rifle flro and the Boors' big gun was in action. Tbe British replied effect- ively aud after two hours fighting tho Boers were checked."

New York, April 13.���Under a Pretoria dnte comes to the Herald an interesting despatch telling of tbe fighting and tbe state of foeling in tbe Transvaal capital, aud oonveying tbe newB that the Federals have taken fresh courage and bave no idea uf lnying down their arms. The dospatuh is dated Monday of tbis week and reads: "Tho relief of Ladysmith and Kirn- berloy aud General Cronje's disaster ooming together canned the Boers to become panic stricken and temporarily abandon Bloemfontein. "Had Lord Roberts been able to follow up bis success the war might have been ended now, but tbe British reaohed Bloomfontein utterly fagged out and recuperation was absolutely necessary. This afforded time for tbe Boers to recover and now tbe military situation ia not necessarily more favorable than two months ago. The fuiut-hearted bave been weeded from the Reserves and tbe fighting oom- iminders are now composed of reaolnte men. The deoision to send the captured Boers to St. Helena makes it certain thnt the Boers will not surrender except in the last extremity. The iverage Burgher prefers death to exile. "A military attache, who ia ranch respected, thinks six months the lowest probable durance of the war. The Boers will probably continue to fight, even if they lose Protoria,which is unlikely to occur for a long time yei." New Yoik, Aprii 13.���Great Britain has to a large extent stopped buying foodstuffs for ber army in South Africa, from thiB country.

Policy in Regard to the Exclusion of Aliens at Atlin. Provincial Gazette Announces a Number of New Appointments. MIMIO WAR. (SPECIALS TO TUB MINER.) Viotoria, B. C, April 13.���An important statement of policy was made today by Hon. Smith Curtis, Minister cf Mines, in regard to the exclusion of aliens from the plaoor fluids of Atlin. Briefly it is to the effect that American oompauiea, which incorporate under the laws of the Province, will be granted free miners' licences. ThiB, of course, applius only to companies, us the Government is powerless to grant free miners' licenses to individuals until the Placer Mining Aot iB amended by the Legislature. Speaking this morning on the new policy, Mr. Curtis said it was ���not a general concensus of opinion that the exclusion of foieign capital from the Atlin region was detrimental to that district and that, in consequenoe, tbe Martin Government hnd deoided to grant those orders in every reasonable case, so tbat, if Americans wish to invest in Atlin, all that is now necessary for them to do is to form a oompany nnder the Provincial laws and apply for an order in council, whicb will enable them to get a free miner's certificate, Incorporation takes little time and there need therefore be little delay in getting the free miner's license where ibe proper steps are taken. Should ibis change of polioy lead to the tbe incorporation of a.number of companies, quite a revenue would be derived by the Provinco from incorporations and license fees. Tonight the Promier and Minister of Mines will open the campaign at Snenlohton and tomorrow evening they will go to Metohosin. At the beginning of tho week they will commence the campaign proper and will prosecute it vigorously until tbe oon elusion of the fight. II oi. Smith Curtis states this morning that, unlosB his plans obange, be would seek a sent in Rossland. A stiff light may therefore be expected in tbat constituency, as Charles H. Mackintosh has been selected to bear the Conservative lance.

They are convinced the British game '���' a waiting game. It is believed the Boer commanders originally designed to oblige Lord Roberts to woaken his fnroea at Bloemfontein in order to protect the railroad. Then the Boers wonld have attempted lo recapture Ihe eapital. The Bnrgbers are evident lv ignorant of the enormous (oroes L>rd Roberts has at his disposal.

CREDIT-WHERE DUE. "The labor trouble in the Kootenays has at Inst been satisfactorily settled," says The Kamloops Sentinel. "To Mr. Ralph Smith, M. P. P., of Nanaimo, is due in a very large measure the credit of bringing about the settlement. " It seems so hard to be lair iu politics. Tbe Sentinel is not entirely a bad sort, but In such a simple matter as the Kootenay labor trouble it care fullv refrains from telling tbe whole truth, bncnuBO if it did it would be obliged to give credit to political nn friends. Rather than do that it oon cents the greater part of the truth ; it can be laid, indeed, tbat it roisrepre sonts the whole nf it. Mr. Ralph Smith hnd little to do with the settlement of the labor trou ble in the Kootenays. Tbe lirst aud most important step towards tbe ao ooinplisbment of that good work was takeu by tbe miners and mine owners of the Slocan at Sandon. After pro- prolonged negotiations, carried on between themselves and in a spirit creditable to both sides, they agreed on conditions, and the men went back to work. It was their own arrangement, brought about among themselves and without aid or suggestion from any outside source. This Sandon settlement v. i- the breaking of the ice. The next to tnke action were the mmere nnd mine owners of Nolson. They, too, axreed among themselves. So far as Mr. Ralph Smith having bad anything to do with it, he did not oven know that concessions on either side were being considered. Neither members of tin Legislature nor Government Commissioners were consulted, or had any knowledge of what was taking place. The principal credit, as the men themselves will admit, is due to the mine owners. They took the whole matter into thuir seriouB consideration, and After a careful study of the situation in all its aspects and out of legard for tbe gonoral public interest, they ro- solved to offer terms so liberal that tbe men conld have no excuse for rejecting tbem. If Mr. Ralph Smith had been in the moon, he could not hnve had less influence in bringng nbout this settlement. With ihe Slocan and Nelson lending the way, thn rest was bound to follow. Trouble -till prevailed at Rossland, however, nnd to make some oapital for himself, as he intended beooming a oandidate in that oonstitnency, Mr. Smith Cnrtis visited tho oity and proffered his good offices. Mr. Ralph Smith was invited to join him, which ho did. Good progress bad already been made townrds a settlement, bnt theso gentlemen were in at tho death. Mr. Cnrtis has since been claiming all the credit for himself nud the Government. The Sentinel, as we see, claims the principal share of it for Mr.Smith, and says nothing of Mr Curtis. Tbe Sentinel does not like Mr. Martin nnd opposes his Government; thnt will explain its silence in respeot to Mr. Cnrtis. Mr. Smith nnd The Sentinel nre adherents of the Cotton party, which will explain the praises of Mr. Smith.

He said : "Her Majesty's Government mu^h regrets to find tbe Government and Legislature of British Columbia adopt a courso regarded as offensive by a friendly Power.and they hope that your Ministers will be able to arrange for the cancellation of the objectionable provisions, nndthe substitution of a measure whicb, while it will seoure the desired exclusion of undesirable immigrants, will obtain that remit by means of some such general test as tbat provided by the Natal Immigration Aot. In any case Her Majesty's Government strongly doprecatas tbe passing of exceptional legislation affecting Japanese already in the Province." This is the legislation that Mr. Martin says ho will have re- enacted if given a majority in the next Legislature. That gentleman is not deterred by such trilling considerations as Federal or Imperial interests. Martin O'Reilly & Co.

We quote his own words, aa reported in Mr. Martin's only orgnu, The Vancouver World: "Mr. Mattiu seemed to bu of the opinion that aa I bad taken an act- ivo interest in the Local nnd Central Institute, and had been nn exhibitor, I was tho man he wanted." Anybody oan tnke an interest in a Farmers Institute, but everybody cannot be nn exhibitor. It must have beon because he was an exhibitor that he wns chosen.
