FINANCIAL SITUATION SEEMS TO HAVE IMPROVED London, June 26.—The opinion is prevailing that the clouds have disappeared from over Europe. The Situation appears to be greatly relieved. The worst stage in the Montenegro situation is now past. There is no apprehension felt over half-yearly financial settlement. Anglo-German relations have greatly improved also and prospects seem very bright. Much anxiety is shown on all sides to have this financial improvement continue. NAAS COUNTRY IS VERY RICH AREA Those Who Have Been Visiting There Report That Valley Is Another Ok- anagan—Proof Of Fertility Brought By Mr, McLeod—Many Going In That the Naas Valley will be one of the richest in the Province of British Columbia and a valuable asset to this city is proved by the testimony of those who have been investigating the resources during the past twelve months. It will be remembered that the deputy minister of agriculture for the province, Mr. Scott, when he went over the territory last year [.laced it, when combined with the Skeena Valley with which it is connected, as the largest area of arable land in this province. The country, according to those who have investigated It, is similar to the famous Okanagan district of the south which has made an enviable reputation as a producer of crops. It is said to differ from the southern valley, however, in the fact that the winters are not so cold as the Okanagan, nor is there the same lack of water as characterizes the southern area In some parts. lr. thu Naas there is every facility in the way of streams so that there Is nothing lacking in this respect. Malcolm Mcleod, of this city, is one of the latest to be attracted to the northern farming valley, and af- TALENTED ENTERTAINMENT. Miss Grace V. Bonner Gave High- class Entertainment—Will Appeal- Again Tonight. In the Methodist Church last evening Miss Grace V. Bonner gave a splendid entertainment. The main programme consisted of the presentation of "Esmeralda," a melodramatic selection, In which Miss Bonner performed the trying task of rendering each part herself, and with ability. Her impersonation of the different characters was very complete and drew forth warranted applause from the audience. In addition to this, between the acts she gave selections that showed her complete mastery of the art of interpreting the different shades of meaning. At the close she gave an unusually good display of ventriloquism. Miss Bonner will appear again tonight in the Methodist Church and will render a complete change ter several months spent there this spring he has returned with a most optimistic report as to the character of the country. He has taken up land there and has in view moving to the valley to live. As a proof of the mild climate and the productiveness of the land he has brought with him a sample of the vegetable growth in the form of a bunch of native grass. This is over five feet in height and is in head. It grew in the dry part of the valley and is an evidence that there is every opportunity for the successful farming in that part of the territory that is tributary to here. The soil is a deep one with a clay sub-Boll and Is easily cleared. Mr. McLeod reports that there are number of settlers going into the district now and before long there will be a very prosperous community in that part of the Skeena district. o Lots 3 and 4, Block 37, Section 7, near drydock, level and first class, see map; $2200, one-third cash, 1 and 2 years.

Miss Bonner's interpretations are meritorious and a full house should greet her. Alexander McDonald, of the fire department, has just returned from a holiday spent In the south. PROVINCIAL GOVERNMENT PUTS IN FORCE A FEATURE THAT WILL ASSIST CLEARING. Croised Area Will Not Only Be Cleared of Heavy Timber, But Also Smaller Material. In connection with the timber policy of the Provincial Government an arrangement is now in force which goes a long way toward clearing the cruised area not only of the heavy timber, but of the smaller material also, which latter would inevitably be left and the land thereby robbed of all revenue-producing quality. It simply amounts to quoting the logger or purchaser a figure at which this "brushwood" may be had, but its effect, in addition to giving the logger an opportunity to cut into the business for himself, ensures the absolute clearing of the land and Its opening up for cultivation. Every month a number of such sales are recorded in the forestry department of the land office, and a day or two ago the Colonist was given a brief list of such transactions, all of which, while representing no great amount of capital, afford an example of the system that is in operation by the Government to have the timber industry carried on in proper manner, and with a view to the best interests of the land in the future. A very notable sale .of this character referred to two million feet of timber located on Den- man Island. By virtue of the regulation referred to the price of the timber was increased by the sum of $1500, and the purchasers were given two years' time in which to effect the clearance. Another example of the same thing occurred in connection with the sale of 200 acres at Fanny Bay, Ramsay Arm, where the timber amounted to three million feet. The sum of $4500 was added to the upset price for the removal of the small stuff, and two years was stipulated for the completion of the transaction. At Ilaslam Lake, near Powell River, two and a half million feet brought in extra revenue to the extent of nearly $2000. A block of timber estimated at 700,000 feet, located on Jervls Inlet, brought In over $700; and yet another block of timber amounting to ninety acres, situated on Cracroft Island, brought In extra revenue to the extent ol $1000. o MINISTER IS ON PACIFIC COAST BLACK FOXES ARE VALUABLE SEVEN LITTLE WHELPS IN EDMONTON ARE VALUED AS HIGH AS $30,000. The Feeding of These Aristocrats of the Wild Is Expensive Matter. Seven little black fox whelps with an option over their Leads of $12,- 000, and with another offer for their purchase of $30,000, made since the option was filed, are now being housed within the four walls of the St. James Hotel, Edmonton, says the Edmonton Journal and the owner, S. A. Bentley, Is watching them like so many nuggets of gold. These little aristocrats of the fur bearing tribe were purchased by Mr. Bentley from a half-breed, who took them from their den at the head of the Loon River, which is located north of the Wabisaw Lakes and I some 380 miles by way of the sum ! mer trail northwest of Edmonton. An old-timer of the north, and a I man speaking fluently almost every I Indian language and especially the ! Cree, Mr. Bentley is naturally very much acquainted with the Indians of the north, and it was while trading with them that the information that a half-breed had found the den, and that the seven baby foxes were in his possession became known. The time was not long before Mr. Bentley located the man, who, when offered $1500 for the litt'e tribe, gladly accepted the sum without further parlance. The litter now takes the form of a party of expensive guests at the St. James. Expensive indeed to the owner, for the little aristocrats are far from being like the ordinary fox; they must be fed on young spring (Continued on Page Two) o — Double corner, Eighth Avenue and Jeffray Street; $1000, one-half cash, 9 and 18 months.

P. • Morgan had topped the hun- • dred million dollar mark as re- • gnrds wealth. JACK JOHNSON ESCAPED POLICE THB GREAT FIGHTER HAS Dis- APPEARED FROM ( ITV OF CHICAGO. With the rapid development on this coast, there is no reason for doubting that it will be.but a short time before there will be a demand for an iron smelter on the coast. This has been figured on for some little time past and the demands of the Pacific Coast looked into with a view to erecting somewhere on the Canadian side of the line. J. A. Moore, of Seattle, himself a Canadian, has been most prominent in the movement, but he lacked the capital to back up such an undertaking. Besides that, the southern part of the province alone was the part that was investigated by him and his associates in this line. It is evident now that the real location for such works are in the northern part of the province in the vicinity of Prince Rupert. This is so because of the fact that there are not wanting evidences that there are deposits of iron ores in this part of the country that will ensure the operation of a plant like that alluded to. With the object in view of ascertaining what there was In the way of iron ores in this part of the province, some mining men repre- REAL OBJECTION TO JAPANESE REAR-ADMIRAL MA HAN TELLS LONDON WHY ORIENTALS ARE NOT WANTED.

London, June 26.—The real objection to Japanese Immigrants in the United States, declared Rear- Admiral Mahan today, is that they remain unchangingly foreign after they take up their residence In the United States. He declares that they do not assimilate with the people of the country. PRETTY CHURCH WEDDING. Rev. W. J, Petter, of Terrace, iiml Miss Ethel Melntyre, of This CHty, Wedded Lust Evening.

It Is believed that he is torla to inspect the military works hiding in Montreal. Johnson was there. They will visit Prince Rupert j awaiting an appeal on a charge of before returning to the easl. \ being a white slaver. A very pretty wedding Hint attracted a large number of spectators last evening was celebrated'in St. Andrew's Church at S o'clock. The marriage was thai of Rev, \V. J, Petter, the Anglican clergyman of Terrace, and Miss Ethel Melntyre, of this city. The ceremony was performed by Bishop DuVernet, who was assisted in the ceremony by Rev, Mr. Burch, The happy couple were the recipients of many congratulations by the many friends they have in this city. They will take Up their residence In Terrace. At the latter place there is a hearty reception awaiting them upon their arrival. Aid. Bullock-Webster, who has just returned from that point, brought from the people of the interior town the heartiest congratulations for the clergyman and his wife and the assurance that they would be, gladly welcomed to the plnce. senting capital came in here and made an examination of the locations where there was known to be iron ores about eight or ten years ago. At that time the deposits were not known to nearly the same extent as at present. Yet In spite of the fact that the showings were not what they are now it was at that time deemed advisable to further investigate the matter. It was allowed to drop at that time and has not since been taken up- as far as Is known. There are now coming to light most valuable deposits of ore. These are not of the magnetite variety that is so common on this coast and which in themselves are not enough to allow of the carrying on of smelting operations. There are valuable deposits of bog iron or hematite found along this coast and within the last week there have been reported on the Copper River very valuable deposits of bog iron. The quantity is large enough to satisfy any operator who might wish to invest in this line. The ore is close to the means of shipment, although if there were lo be a large quantity taken out it might be necessary to construct a line of railway for a short distance up the Copper River Valley to reach the deposits where they exist. This bog iron mixed with the magnetite on the coast would produce, it Is said, the very best class of Iron that could be manufactured. The time is near at hand when there will be a decided demand for iron on this coast in large quantities. In addition to the local demand that there Is in the province for all lines of manufacture, there Is a large market for pig iron in the Orient. This market could be reached from here very conveniently with the opening up of the trade lines out of Prince Rupert to ports In Asia. Should the investigations into the deposits that are found in this vicinity prove to be well founded it may only be a matter of a short time until among the many industries that are added to this city will be that of an iron smelter.

Greece claims Saloniki on the grounds that her so'diers captured the city and province, and still hold them, and the population is largely Greek. Servia and Greece together claim Western Macedonia, which is largely Greek, but was conquered and is now held by Servia. It is not easy to see where this will end. except that it will long continue to keep the Balkan relations strained. A SURPRISE . ARCEL. A short time ago Chief Justice Hunter, on his visit to this city and district, remarked upon the valuable assets that this part of the province seemed to possess, and said that British Columbia was a son of surprise parcel and that this part of the province was hearing this out. The development of the district and the general prospecting of it bears out very fully the belief that the Chief Justice as correct in thus sizing up the situation. It would.appear that (he district is to lack practically nothing that goes to make up a wealthy community. Nature has been lavish in its bestowal of riches in this part of the province beyond that of all other parts, which are, nevertheless, rich in their1 lines. The natural resources of this district are great and varied. In addition to the fisheries, the farm lands, the timber and the general mineral wealth of the district there are not wanting the minerals and other commodities that enter fully into the making of a prosperous community. Iron ore, it is evident, is to be found In such quantities and alongside of the most valuable coal deposits as to make this in no distant date the centre of I he iron smelting and working for the Pacific Coast. THE BALKAN DISPUTE. The territory in dispute among the Balkan people comprises SO,000 square miles and contains a population of 4,000,000. Nearly half these inhabitants are Mohammedans, and who are nearly all Turks. More than 1 000,000 are Greeks. There are 78,0,- 000 Bulgars and 225,000 Serbs. Bulgaria claims two-thirds of this territory, with 2,600,000 population. Less than one-third of the people whom aulgaria desires to annex are Bulgars. There are nearly as many Greeks. If Bulgaria has* her way, Greece will gain by the war only 8000 square miles, with less than 400,000 people, or one-tenth of the territory that Greece has helped to conquer. Of these 400,000 less than 300,000 are Greeks, or about half the number that Bulgaria proposes to annex. Bulgaria is willing to allow Servia and .Montenegro 13,000 square miles with 660,000 people, two-thirds Of whom are Turks. The Triple Alliance insists that ihe new State of Albania shall be set aside, with 7000 square miles and 400,000 people. Of these 250,000 are Greeks. li will be seen that as Ihe result of this allotmeni there would be 850,- 000 Greeks in the conquered territory left under foreign flags, while only 270,000 would be restored to Greece. There are still 500,000 Greeks in Constantinople and the BLACK FOXES VALUABLE.

They are said to be about 60 days old, and each carry a hide of approximately one nnd a half square feel in size, being worth $1715. That is al the rate of $12,000 for which the option was taken, but since then a sum of no less than $30,000 has been offered by a Prince Edward Island breeder for the little tribe. This offer was made about 24 hours after the option had been filed. The trip down from the north was one the 'ike of which Mr. Bentley had never experienced before. The foxes in a crate, the food upon which they were to be fed, besides all the other necessary articles of a north country pack he carried upon his back, travelling for the greater part over muskeg country. The little animals had at all times to be fed on fresh game, and this, no matter how difficult, had to be procured. It can be well imagined that it was with relief Mr. Bentley arrived in this city. 44*44*-** H+44-44-4-4-4-*-*-*-*-**** I LUMBER Coal, Cement, Plaster and Brick AND A COMPLETE LINE OF BUILDERS' SUPPLIES | WESTHOLME LUMBER CO., LTD.

LEGAL SIDE OF JAPANESE DISPUTE NEW YORK LAWYER CONTENDS CALIFORNIA LAND LAW IS WITHIN RIGHTS. The Whole Subject Discussed from International Standpoint by This Authority. Maurice Leon, a New York lawyer, who makes a specialty of international law and who has studied the Japanese question with regard to the attitude of the foreign powers in the controversy between the United States, has contributed the following analysis of the silnation to the New York Sun: The Japanese question in liiis country exists largely as the result of the Russo-Japanese war. Following the peace of Portsmouth, Japan has found herself financially very have never hesitated to use that right. We have not done it except in the case of confirmed criminals. But that does not mean that we do not enjoy the right to do it in any and all cases where it is expedient for us to do so. The secod point which is totally overlooked and which is very important for the purposes of the present discussion is that heretofore all our difficulties with great nations over the question of our granting naturalization to their subjects arose from the fact that we were too ready to grant such naturalization. Our differences with Russia and Germany in particular on this question have entirely arisen from it- fact that these countries did nol recognize our right to take Over their own citizens without the consent of tlie country of origin. Naturalization, on the other hand, at best Is u favor. It can never be claimed by a foreigner us a right; it never is a right. It can be subordinated to any position whatever, reasonable or much worse off than she had been j unreasonable, wise or foolish, W before the war, as she had nol received any war indemnity from Russia. She found herself compelled in some way or another to provide for the men in the regiments which were disbanded at the conclusion of the war. There existed at the time a treaty have subordinated the grant of naturalization to the color of a man's skin. We might have subordinated it to the color of his eyes or his hair and still have been entirely within our rights. Now the position of Japan in the last analysis is that she resents our ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ refusal to confer our nationality upon which merely guaranteed the rights! her own people. It is almost incredi- of commerce and navigation to the, uIe tnat sue should raise such a contracting parties.

The Japanese who had been attending (lie regular primary schools resented it, and this gave rise to various disorders which did not subside until die United States Government decided to send the battleship fleet around the world, with Yokohama as the first Important stopping place. California has now met ihe question in so far as ii affects her agri- ci Itui-a 1 regions by limiting the activities of the Japanese in agriculture. The treaty of 1909, which superseded the treaty of 1894, plainly limits the treaty rights of commerce and gives added emphasis to the spirit of the treaty of 1894, under which Japan was nol justified in seeking! admission into the United States for any but members of her better classes. At no time has the United States expressly or Impliedly sanctioned tin? entrance of Japanese laborers. It would lie Idle to discuss the question whether Hie recent land law adopted l.y California is within the treaty rights of the Japanese.! That it is within those rights appears by express language on the face of the law. The law guarantees to the Japanese and to all other individuals not eligible to citizenship all the rights which they enjoy under any existing treaty and in addition a limited agricultural right. There are two points in connection with this Japanese situation which have been entirely overlooked heretofore. ^ The-firsl is that every great nation except the United Stales freely exercises the riglil to expel any foreigners who for any reason complicate the task of the government. The departments of the Interior of England, Prance, Russia and Germany the only attitude consistent with the dignity and honor of a great country, where another country refuses to grant naturalization to her subjects is one of obligation for preserving the nationality of those subjects. This is the attitude which Russia or Germany or Fiance or England would take in such a controversy, and 1 believe that if this essential featinc of tho question were thoroughly understood by the public in this country, Japan would soon realize the futility of pushing the controversy any further, If, notwithstanding this consideration, she still desired us to provide for the grant of Skeena Land District—District of Queen Charlotte .slands.

The eighth annua] encampment of the Alpine Club of Canada to be held at Mount Robson, in the main range of the Canadian Rockies, promises to be "the camp of a lifetime" for the Alpine climbers. Accommodation in camp will be made for about one hundred climbers, and •an invitation has been extended to twenty-five members of the Alpine Club of England to be the guests of the Alpine Club of Canada while in ramp. A number of prominent English Alpinists have already signified their intention of being present at this official opening of the new Mount Robson Park. The camp will be known as the Robson Pass Camp, and from it Climbing and exploration work will be done on both sides of the Canadian Rockies, in British Columbia and Alberta. It will open on Monday, July 28, and will close on Saturday, .aigiist 9. The camp will he reached from Robson Station, on the main line of the Grand Trunk Pacific Railway. There is no station in operation here at present, Robson being as yet lust a siding. The camp will be pitched fifteen miles from the railway, and a pony trail from the station grounds to the pass is being constructed by the British Columbia Government and should be completed by the time the aamp opens. Both the Grand Trunk and Canadian Pacific (via Calgary to Edmonton; are offering visitors a return ticket for a single fare, plus $6.25 when going via Calgary to Edmonton. The members will meet in Edmonton on Saturday, July 26, and will leave by the night train for the west. The entire party will leave the station ground for the camp on the early morning of July 28. The main camp will be pitched at the summit of Robson Pass, at an altitude of 5530 feet above sea level. There will be subsidiary camps on the Smoky River in Alberta, six miles from its source, from which point Mural Glacier, which, mid-way across its flow, presents a wall of ice 400 feet high, will be explored; and at Moose Pass, 6700 feet, which gives access to a wonderful collection of glaciers at the sides and head of Calumet Creek. ' The fifteen-mile tramp from Robson station to the main camp is through primeval forest, by Lake Kinney and through the valley of a Thousand Falls. While Mount Robson (13,068 feet) is the monarch of the range, many of the surrounding peaks are very magnificent. These include Mt. Resplendent 111,173), Lynx Mountain (10,471), the Helmet (11,160), and Ptarmigan Peak (9320). The Robson amphitheatre is one of the finest snow cirques in the main range, presenting grotesque configurations and varied snow formations of every conceivable form. It is the centre of a vast area of snowfields, ice-falls, towering peaks, timbered valleys and silver streams. The graduating camp will this year he at Lake O'Hara Valley, to be reached from Hector Station, halfway between Laggan and Field oif the C.P.R., and will run from July 15 to 25.

The finding of the Canadian Marine Court on the Atlantic side which suspended the certificate of Captain J. C.

The captain's certificate was suspended for a period of three months. The decision of the Marine Court was generally regarded as unfair to the captain, and the Merchant Service Guild, of which Captain Hoy was a member, at once took the matter up and Instructed distinguished counsel In the appeal which they entered against the decision. The Admiralty Court ordered that Captain Hoy's certificate be restored to him as front October 17 last.
