SILVERTON, BRITISH COLUMBIA, SATURDAY APRIL 16, 1898. NUMEER 42 RICH STRIKE AT THE FIDELITY. Cbsof es «« The Vancou-or-The Queen Frsotlon—CorBerscker—SsaoUer Fur Grand Turki Among the other properties thai have come to the front iu this section during the prist reason, and taken its place among the ranks of shippers, is the Comstock, a property that ranks among the very first and that has emerged from a mere prospect to a finely developed mine with nearly, if not quite, 2000 leet of developoraent work donoon it, consisting ol tunnels, winses, crosscuts and raises. It is ftafo to say that no other property in the Slocan Lake district lias accomplished more in tho same length ol time or have done their work to better advantage or kept it in better sbapo than the Comstock, The property is situated ten miles shove Silveiton on a lork ot Four Mile creek. It is connected with Silver- ton by a wagon mad that runs to within one an 1 a half miles of the mine, where- supplies sre delivered by the wagons to Bwait transportation the balance of tlie distance to the mine, being hauled fit winter on rawhides and in the summer packed by mules. The intention of tlie company however, tho present season, Is t.i extend tbe wagon road to the mine. The proparty i-i advantag.?omly situate 1 so thst it can bo worked to a great depth by a tunnel system.lbus doing sway with an expensive hoisting and pumping plan' an 1 greatly cheaponing the c-et of mining the ore.

During Ibe past winter, ind ilha .lev.*l- opemont work the company took out and shipped one huiidred and fifty tons of first-class shipping ore mostly steel galena, a few tons beingrfchcarbonate on*, besides putting three thousand tow of concentrating oro oil tha various dumps The shipping oro runs from 103 to 300 onnces in silver ami fro e 60 to 80 ucr cent. lead. Aud thc concentrating ore will cot.centrate live tons into one. The most important workings consist of tlie following tunnels—viz. Tunnel No. 2,wbicb is the farthest working tunnel up the mountain, is in 200 feet and has cut a shuto of shipping ore and devel- opod slot of concentrating ore. Tunnel No.3, is in 270 feet and at the present lime is being driven night and day. This tunnel has cut a fine body of shipping ore and has a large body of concentrating ore exposed almost its entire length. Two raises have boon put through from this tunnel to No 2,onc raiso being UO feet, the other 100 feet, thus making good air, aud.blocking out a lot tf ore Both raises arc in ore all the way und the streak of clean or shipping oro, to say nothing at all ol tlio concentrating or-", ol which there is coneidi-rabbi, varies from four inches to two feet and will average eight inches. There aro also three prospect winzes sunk In this tunnel in ore nnd go to show that tho ore sliutos continuo down ami when the lower tunnols aro driven in (ar enough they will undoubtedly striko this rich ■chute. Tunnel No.4. is in a depth of 100 •<*et, is expected to strike the ledgo und °ro nt almost any time. Tunnel No.7, la the next tunnel down the mountuin and is in 180 feet, it has exposed mostly concentrating with occasional streaks of "bippingore. Tunnel No.G.at which Place the company btiildlilga are, consisting of a commodious boarding and cook house, two bunk bouses, superintendent and foremans houses snd offices, store house, blacksmith shop, ore house •nd bins, and ore sartors building, all ol which are in good shape and well looked alter. This tunnol, No.5, is now in 660 feet and is gaining in length and depth every day. It lias exposed a largo amount of ore, both shipping and concentrating, and is about tlio most prominent workings of the company. In this tunnel is an upraise, now Dp 00 feet. Tbls will when completed connect tun- -els No.6,and 7,. Tunnel No. 8, Is a tunnel and is the lowest workings of the mine. It will tap the oro bodies exposed in the upper tunnels at a great depth, and although this tunnel is only in a distance of 50 feet it haa been driving for some time in a nice streak of shipping ore. The company has been steadily developing this property with tbe view of making a mine, out of it and erecting a concentrator if the mine justified it, and it lias now so much ore in sight that the owners feel more than justified in commencing the erection of the concentrator, ami will start to build as noon as the stato of the reads will permit. The company own a good mill site convenient to the property and a water supply that will enablo them to operate continuously tlie year io nl}| The company islortunalo in its present, management, and the property is being well managed and looked after. The company is at present working 23 men having bad to lay off most of its force owing to the roads, but has ample and good accomodations for 60 men at tbe mine. The group of claims owuod by this company comprise the Ruby Trnst, Kentucky Girl, Blue Peter, Fraction. Isabel Traction and Comstock, COItNCRACKF.R, Messrs. Barrett, Brandon snd Mc- Naught are husily pushingdevelopement wotk on the Corncrackur. Thia claim is situated ou Fidelity hill near tbe mine of that name. Assays made on the ore fiom tbe Corncrai.kcr show from 20 to 60 'viii--,-s silver and $20. in gold. It is expected that the Fidelity bill will attract macll attention from miners this summer aud r >ii- big strikes are loiked for by the holders of claims in that viciuitv. QUEEN FRACTION.

BARRED. From Locating Claims, so The Committee Reeeommosds. TBE ROAD WORK PROGRESSING I'aiter Kg* Social-Drowning at Nelson —Will Row for Chsmpionahlp— Other Thlngri. The Mining Committee of the Legis- lalure at Victoria havo submitted their report to the House. The most radical change rcccommended by thcin Is that only British subjects bcnllowed the right of locating mineral drums in this Province. Thc clause in question reads as follows:—- "Every person over, but not under, 18 years of age, and every joint company shall lie entitled to all the right* an privileges of a free miner and shall be counidered a free miner upon taking out a free miner's certificate; provided, bowevpr, that no alien shall be allowed to record a mineral claim unless bo has previously and in accordance with the provisions of the act regulating the same, declared his intention to become a Biitish subject, and no Crown grant shall be issued upon any mineral claim recorded after the passage of this act, toauy other person thau a British subject." Ano'.liei clause in tho report reccom- inc-nds tho recognition of a minor hold- ins a free miner's licence as of full age iu matters relating to his mining property. A miner ia to bo allowed to do more than one year's assessment work in a year and receive credit for same. In application for Crown grants tbe applicant must file conies of the Gazette and ol the paper advertised in with tbe Gold Commissioner. LAKE AVENUE. When tlie citizen.] of Siiverton undertake to do anything, everything moves. When tho grading of Lako Ave. was determined on a short time ago our representative m«*n formed a, committee, and t he large force of mon now at work is the reeult of their labor. The sum of over faOJ.OO was secured with vorv little difficulty, and a creditable street is now replacing tho stump field known as Lake Ave. Great praise is due the executive committee of this work for tho manner in which it is being done. Under the supervision of Foreman Daly tho unsightly banks and boulders are rapidly disappearing and the slumps are being disposed of as fast as fire can consume them. EASTER EGG SOCIAL. Tbe social given by tho ladies of Ihe Union Church last Monday evening was a decided success botli from o financial and social standpoint. The numbers on program wero well given and received hearty applause from the audience. The following was the program ot the evening. Opening selection Orchestra. Address Chairman.

After the last Egg bad passed under the auctioneer's hummer the fortunate ones sought their ladies nnd explored the depths ol their Eggs for tbo dainties sure to be there. Refreshments were served to all and everybody dispersed well sat- iefiud with iho entertainment. HER MAJESTY'S OPPOSITION. Tbe Nelson Miner in a recent issue says:—"Mr. Hume's motion of want of confidence failed to find a majority in favor of it. It is a little difficult to imagine our member bringing forward such a thing. Good tempered and easy going not exactly an orator, be lias none of tbe bluster nnd energy that makes a succss- ful leader of an opposition rush. The whole thing however, is typical of the opposition. Thev are no moro likely to carry the country with them at the coming elections than they were to carry Mr Hume's motion of want of confidence. THE CHAMBER OF MINES. We have received a copy of tbe rules and regulations governing the B. G. Chamber of Mines. Tho object of this organisation Is the furthering of tbe mining interests of this province and to circulate information tending to interest outside capital in our mines. A perma- nant salaried secretary has been engaged, who's duties will be the compiling all information of the mineral resources of British Columbia. Those interested in mining should extend tbeir support towards this organisation. Tbe Chamber will, if requested, act as aihi- trutors in the settling of any mining disputes, and propose to establish a library and museum of mining interest open to their membsrs. TBE LOCAL LAYOUT.

MAKE NO MISTAKE Some time ago an amorous young man sent a letter to a German lady.says tl e Philadelphia Record, and this postscript was added: "That my darling may make no mistake, remember that I will wear a light pair of trousers and a dark cutaway. In my right hand I will carry a small cane, and In my left a cigar. Yours ever, Adolph." The father replied courteously, stating that his daughter bad given biro authority to represent Iter at tbe appointed place and tbo time agreed on.

Well, be can at leaat emulate John Bunyan. History, at all events, will give tbe novelist a fairer trial. Slang Is quite ancient, but It's still to be proved that when the wooden steed was dragged Into old Troy, tha Trojans eald: This Is a horse on us. Philadelphia haa developed a beggar wbo goes about soliciting* alms ou a bicycle. Perhaps be wants to raise enough money to buy a '08 wheel. Thieves are said to be almost unknown In Finland. Curiously enough, tbere are many thieves tn this country who contrive to remain entirely unknown. A desperado arrested In Boston bad a copy of Browning tn bis pocket. Of course his lawyer will plead a certain Intellectual disturbance, due to a prolonged struggle with obscurities. An exchange says: "Tbe hair on tbe head of most of the hundreds of thousands of dolls exhibited In sbop windows Is made from tbe hair of the Angora goat." That's probably wby tbe kids all like dolls. A gun tested near Washington recently threw a shell over ten miles, wblcb means tbat a hostile ship would bo under fire for twenty miles In passing a battery. Sucb target practice will make it interesting for tbe sblp. Mrs. Wu, wife of the Chinese minister at Washington, has the laugb on American women. Whenever anybody says anything to ber about Chinese girls binding their feet, she retorts tbat no Chinese woman is barbarous enough to wear corsets. Susan B. Anthony says tbat "the grievances women have against the common enemy—man—to-day are as many aa tbe colonists bad against King George." Then why not follow the example of the colonist*—fight for Independence first and for tbe union afterward. The Pall Mall Gazette seeks to agitate us by disclosing tbe fact tbat a genuine prince Is a waiter In a New York hotel. It would really agitate New York to learn that any of our "palace hotel" waiters Is leas than a prince, for that Is what their manners bave impressed Upon us. A pleasing incident of tlie cotton mills strike In New Bedford was the "Idle hours" recreation furnished to strikers through the efforts of one of tbe city pastors. Reading, games, music and other forms of wholesome entertainment were provided in two balls, and all were welcome who would refrain from discussing the strike or other labor matters while present Tbe great isothermal line of baked beans Includes Dawson City lu British Alaska. Outfitters in Seattle and Snn Francisco complain bitterly ot the In- creasing scarcity of tbe most succulent of Intellect-nourishing vegetables. Tbere has not yet been any rumor of organization In Boston of a society for the promotion of canned beans in Alaska, but it would be a good neighborly act. Every family In Boston could give a pot of beans and never feel It. The Introduction of bills for the removal of the charge of desertion from men who enlisted In the armies of the Union In our great war, and who failed to put In an appearance wben their commands were mustered out, has been going on for a third of a century, u la tbe general opinion of honorably discharged soldiers that this thing has gone far enough. They assert, and tbey know something about the matter, that most of these deserters are men who enlisted for bounties and got out at tbe first opportunity. The course taken by tbe French ministry In arbitrarily forbidding discussion of Its acts was foreseen. It Is tbe course tbat has been taken shortly he- fore Its fall by each of the French governments that has been overthrown by revolution during the past seventy years. The precedents do not warrant tbe inference that a change Is at hand. Tbe second empire and tbe citizen king both went on for several years after the policy of suppressing criticism hnd been adopted. But this sort of violence reveals a weakness tbat bad been veiled, and by that disclosure Invites and encourages assault. The conclusion Is forced upon us that tbe builders of warships might collaborate with the architects of the great commerce carriers and combine speed with safety. The agents of tbe Atlantic liners never lose much sleep when one of tbe ships Is overdue. They admit tbat ber machinery may be broken, but experience has taught them tbat her chances are good for making port, despite tbe handicap. Our great warships flounder about In calm harbors, strike a sandbar or an Insignificant tug and promptly go Into dry dock for repairs costing thousands of dollars. Tbere Is a lesson In this for somebody, possibly tbt builder of modern battle-ships. the advantage not only of herself, but of all commercial nations. The result will be that American ships will soon be permitted to penetrate the very heart of the richest part of China and American commerce will be exceedingly shortsighted unless It joins in the exploitation of this land of great commercial promise. This triumph of English diplomacy may tie looked upon as of Immense value to thc whole English-speaking world, ourselves as well as Great Britain. A million bobolinks killed last year! Four million other birds slaughtered In the same year—and for what? That their torn and distorted bodies might be flaunted In the headgear of American womankind! Tbere are no guess-work figures, but the official report of the Audubon Society of Massachusetts. And what does It mean? It means five million voices stilled In Nature's avian choir. Five million flashes of cbeeri- ness and gladness taken from human life; aod millions of other young lives doomed to starvation or prey In order that tbe plumaged corpse of tbe murdered mother bird may be rent by a milliner and Jammed In hideous shape- lcasness In milady's hat! Ah, milady, Is there no efficacy In these desolating figures? Is there no mercy In your heart, no conscience In your make-up, no sentiment In your soul? Can you enjoy the finest opera when you think that the killing of the birds with which you and your sisters ure crowning your beauty Is gradually silencing the grand oratorie of the forest and the fields? A blrdless country! A voiceless forest! What a desolation it would be! And yet that Is Just what this country is coming to If the song birds of our lam! are to be killed off at Klie rate of five millions a year In order to gratify feminine vanity and keep woman "in style."

The Only Hone tar Relief From a Condition Which Cnn No Longer II.- Kudured In thr Enforced 1'm- III.-nil..11 of the Island—Spain's Offer of Arhllrntlon. Are the statements about Spain's decadence true, or are they false? Hnve descriptions of her antiquated Institutions, her barbaric social com!I ".Ions, her Industrial death, lieen mere exaggerations to enforce baseless argument? Is this view of Spain purely an American view ? At one time this little sun dried corner of Europe coutalued about all there was or European thought. Then Ferdinand came nnd burned the baths of Cordova because, he said, Christians never bathed. Then this corner was the seat of power for several generations. Then It began to go to ruins. What it is to day an article In the National Review, a Loudon publication, indicates somewhat \lvldly. "Decadent Spain" is the title. This is what It says: "Spain is not only devoid of progressive spirit, but she cun- lmt muster up sufficient energy to govern herself. She Is the most backward country In Europe. Tbe people are shamefully taxed; a peasant cannot bring his load of faggots Into a town without paying octroi toll. Tbe administrative departments are oriental iu their sloth aud management. Freeh butter Is obtained from France. The postal service Is a disgrace. It is a risky thing to post a letter, especially If It seems to contain anything of value. To send a check by post Is regarded ae an extreme act of folly. The passing traveler on his way through Mud- rid to France Is asked by his friends to take letters and poet them In security over the border. Yet no Spaniard seems to care for any of these things, and Is surprised If they are remarked ou." Great Britain's policy of opening np to tbe whole world whatever markets •be herself wins by ber shrewd diplomacy Is about to triumph In Ohio*, to One remedy for tbe dodging of taxes on personal property suggested by General Harrison is entitled to something more than casual consideration. It Is that a meeting of the tax commissioners of a considerable number of States be held, to consult as to some plan for the taxation of personal property that will secure a uniform system. Une of the embarrassments at the present time Is that when a State undertakes to adopt a plan which will Increase tbe taxation of certain classes of property, It becomes a serious loser by tbe re moval of those who are taxed under sucb a system. New Jersey Is said to be tbe paradise of New York tax dodgers. Ohio Is said to bave lost a number of wealthy citizens because the State undertook to tax them. One was so Incensed, not long ago, that he disposed of all bis property In Ohio and left the State in something of a buff. Tax commissioners, like Insurance and labor eoinmlsslonprs, could meet, consider plans and Anally adopt some one of them. This plan they could recommend to the Legislatures of the States represented, and thereby a uniform system for more adequate taxation could lie secured. Taxation Is not one of the topics which the people generally discuss. They complain of local taxation, but when the topic is discussed It Is Federal taxation, usually the tnxatlon of the poor to pay for bonds. This miiy be Important, but, compared with local tnxatlon, It Is Inconsequential. The agitation of the topics which General Harrison hns brought to the front In neighborhoods, in village or township meetings for the purpose would cab public attention to the injustice In a manner which could not fall to be generally beneficial. A New Envelope. An envelope for carrying merchandise through tbe malls Is so constructed with reversible.flaps and a stiffening strip attached to tbe closing flap tbat the Inside of the envelope may become the outside, and tbe same envelope used to return merchandise in the same manner in wblcb It waa forwarded.

Washington, April 11 .—President McKinley sent his Cuban message to congress today. After reviewing tlie history of the war in Cuba the president says: The war in Cuba Is ot such a nature, that, short of subjugation or extermination, a final military victory for either side seems Impracticable. The alternative lies In the physical exhaustion of one or tho other party or perhaps both, a condition which, In effect, ended tbe 10 years' way by the truce of Znn Jon. The prospect of such, a protraction and confusion of the present strife Is a contingency hardly to be contemplated with equanimity by the civilized world nnd least of nil by the United States, nffected and Injured ns wo ore, deeply and Intimately, hy Its very existence.

To this end I submitted, on thc 27th ultimo, us a result of much representation and correspondence through the United S<tates minister at Madrid, propositions to the Spanish government looking to an armistice until October 1 for the negotiation of peace with the good offices of the president. In addition, I asked tho Immediate revocation of the order of reconccntratlon, so as to permit the people to return to their farms and the needy to be relieved with provisions and supplies by the United States co-operating with the Spanish authorities so as to afford full relief. The reply of the Spanish cabinet wn- recelved on the 31st ult. It offers as the means to bring about peace in Cuba, to confide the preparation thereof to the insular parliament, inasmuch as the concurrence of that body would be necessary to establish a Him I result; it being, however, understood that the powers reserved by the constitution to the central government are not lessened or diminished. As the Cuban parliament does not meet until the fourth of May next the Spanish government would not object for its purl to accept at once a suspension of hostilities If asked for by the insurgents from the general-ln-chlef, to whom It would pertain tn such case to determine the duration and condition of the armistice. The function of the Cuban parliament In the matter of "preparing" peace and the manner of doing so are not expressed In the Spanish memorandum, but from General Woodford's explanatory reports of prellmlnlary discussions preceding the final conferences It Is understood that the Spanish government stands ready to give the insular congress full power to settle tbe terms of peace with the insurgents, whether by direct negotiations or Indirectly by means of legislation does not appear. The l'.nd of Ihe Rffort. With this last overture in the direction of immediate peace and its disappointing reception by Spain, the executive was brought to thc end of his effort. In my annual massage of last December 1 said: "Of the untried measures thero remain recognition of the Insurgents as belligerent*, recognition of Ihe Independence of CUba and intervention to end the war by lm|K>slng a rational compromise between the contestants and Intervention In fnv-or of one or the other party. I speak not of forcible annexation for that cnn not be thought of. That by our code of morality would lie criminal aggression." Thereupon, I reviewed these alternatives In the light of President (""rant's message in the words uttered in 1S75, when, after seven years of sanguinary, destructive and cruel barbarities In Cuba, he reached the conclusion that the recognition of the independence of Cuba waa Impracticable and Indefensible and thnt tho recognition of belligerence was not warranted by the facts according to the texts of public law. I commented especially upon this phase of the question, pointing out the Ineon-1 venlences and positive dangers of recognition of belligerence, which, while adding to tho already onerous burdens of neutrality within our own Jurisdiction, could not In any way extend our Influence or effective office In the territory of hostilities. Nothing hns since occurred to change my view ill this regard and I recognise as fmiv now ns then that the issuance | of a proclamation of neutrality, by which process the Bo-called recognition of belligerency Is published, could, of Itself and I unattended by other action, accomplish I nothing toward the end for which we la- I bor, tlie Instant pacification of Cuba and I tho cessation of thc misery that afflicts ' the island. | AruIiihI II.'.-.iuiiI/.Iiib Independence. Turning to Ihe question of recognizing nt this time Ihe Independence of the present Insurgent movement In Cuba we find safe precedents In our history from an I early day. They are well summed up In President Jackson's message to congress I December 21, 1836, on the subject of the recognition of the Independence of Texas, when he said: "In all Che contests thnt hnve arisen out of the revolutions of France, out of disputes relating to Portugal and Spain, out of the separation of the American possessions of both from the Kuropean governments and out of the numerous and constantly occurring struggles for dominion in Spanish-American states, so wisely consistent with our Just principles has been the action of our government that we have, under the most critical circumstances, avoided alt censure and encountered no other evil than that produced by a transient re-estrangement of good will In those against whom we have lieen, by force of evidence, compelled to decide. "It hns thus been mnde known to the world that the uniform policy and practice of the United Stntes Is to avoid all interference In disputes which merely relate to tho internal government of other nations and eventually to recognize the authority of the prevailing pnrty without reference to our particular interests and views or to the merits of Ihe original controversy. "Hut in this, as In every other occasion, safety Is to lie found in a rigid adherence to principles. In the contest between Spain and the revolting colonies we stood aloof and waited not only until the ability of the new stmtea to protect themselves was fully established, but until danger of their being ngaln subjugated had entirely passed away. Then and not until then, were they recognized. "Such was our course In regard to Mexico herself. It Is true that with regard to Texas, the civil authorities of Mexico had been expelled, Its invading army defeated, the chief of tho republic himself captured and all present power to control thc newly organized government of Tex- ob annihilated within Us confinement. But, I on the other hand, there la, In appearance nt least, nn Immense disparity of physical | force on the side of Texas. The Mexican republic under an ally Is garhcrlnjr its forces under n new leader and menacing a fresh invasion to recover Its lost domain. "Upon the Issue of this Ihreatencd Invasion tho Independence of Texas may bo considered us suspended und were there nothing peculiar in the situation of the United States and Texas our acknowledgement of Its Independence at audi a crisis could scarcely be regarded as consistent with that prudent reserve with which we hiuo hitherto held ourselves bound to treat all similar questions." Thereupon Andrew Jackson proceeded to consider tho risk that there might be Imputed to the United States motives of selfish Interests in view of the former claim on our part to the territory of Tex. ns and of the avowed purpose of the Texans In seeking recognition of Independence ns nn Incident to the incorporation of Texas In thc Union, concluding thus: President Jackson's Conclusions. "Prudence, therefore, seems to dJctate that we ahould stand aloof and maintain our present attitude, if not until Mexico Itself or one of Ihe great powers shall recognize the Independence of the new government, at least until the lapse of time or the course of events shall havo pi nved, beyond cavil or dispute, the ability of that country to maintain separut.* sovereignty and to uphold the government constituted by them. Neither of tha eontending parties can Justly complain n.' this course. By pursuing ll wo are but currying out the long established policy of our government, a policy whlcn hns secured to us respect and Influence abroad and Inspired confidence af home." These are the words of Andrew Jackson. They are evidence thut tho United States, In addition to the test Imposed by public law as the condition of the recognition of Independence by a neutral state, to-wlt: That the revolted state shall "constitute In fact a body politic, having a government In substance as well as in name, possessed of the elements of stability," and forming de facto, "If left to Itself, a state among the nations, reasonably capable of discharging the duties of B state," nan Imposed for Its own governance In dealing with cases like these, the further condition that recognition of independent statehood is not due to a revolted dependency until the danger of its being again subjugated by Its parent state hns entirely passed away." This extreme test was In fact applied in the case of Texas. The congress to whom President Jackson referred the question as "one probably leading to war," and therefore H proper subject for a previous understanding with that body, by whom war can alone be declared and by whom all the provisions for sustaining Its perils must be furnished, left the matter of recognition of Texas to the discretion of the executive, providing merely for the sending of a diplomatic ageni when the president should be satisfied that the republic of Texas hnd become "an Independent state." Inn llnri-n's Position. It was so recognized by President Van Ruren, who commissioned a charge d'affaires, March 7. 1837, after Mexico had abandoned an attempt to conquer the Texas territory and when there was at Ihe time no bona fide contest going on between the Insurgent province and 1 tn former sovereign. I said in my message nf December last: "It is to be seriously considered whether the Cuban Insurrection possesses beyond dispute the uttrlbutes of statehood which alone can demand the recognition of bel llgerency in its favor." The same requirement must be no less seriously considered when the graver Issue of recognizing Independence Is in question, for no less positive test can be applied to the greater act than to the lesser, while on the other hand the influence and consequences of the struggle upon the International policy of the recognizing states, which form important factors when the recognition of belligerency is concerned, are secondary If not rightly ellminable factors when ihe community claiming recognition Is not Independent beyond peradventure. Nor from the standpoint of expedience do I think It would be wise or prudent for this government to recognize, ut the present time, the Independence of the so- called Cuban republic. Such recognition Is not necessary In order to enable the United States to intervene and pacify the Island. To commit this country now to the recognition of any particular government In Cuba might subject us to embarrassing, conditions of International obligation toward the organization so recognized. In case of intervention our conduct will be subject to the approval or disapproval of such government. We would be required to submit to Its direction and to assume to il the more relation of a friendly ally. When it shall appear thereafter that there is within the Island a government capable of performing the duties and discharging the functions of a nation und having as a matter of fact the proper forms and attributes of nationality such government cnn be promptly and readily recognized and the relations and Interests of thc United States with bucIi nation adjusted. The Alternative Forms. There remain the alternative forms of Intervention to end thc war, either as an Impartial neutrality by Imposing a rational compromise between the contestants, or as the active ally of the one party or the other. As to the first, It Is not to be forgotten that during the last few months Ine relation of the fnit-l States has virtually been one of friendly Intervention In many ways, each not of Itself conclusive, but all tending to the exci utlon of n potential Influence toward an ultimate pacific result, just and honorable to all Interests concerned. The spirit of nil of your acts hitherto has been nn earnest, unselfish desire for peace and prosperity In Cuba, untarnished by differences between the United Stntes and Spain and unstained by the blood of American citizens. The forcible Intervention of the United States as a neutral to stop the war, according to the large dlotutes of humanity, and following historical precedents where other states have interfered to check the hopeless sacrifice of life by internecine conflicts beyond their borders, Is Justifiable on national grounds. It Involves, however, hostile constraint upon both the parties lo the contest, as well to enforce a truce as to guide the eventual settlement. The grounds for such Intervention may be briefly summarized us follows: <;>■..,,,,.In for Intervention. First, in the cnuse of humanity nnd to put nn end to the barbarities, bloodshed, starvation and horrible miseries now existing there nnd which the parties to the conflict are either unable or unwilling to stop or mitigate. It Is no answer to say tins is in a country belonging to another nation and Is therefore none of our business. It Is especially our duty, for it Is right at our door. Second, we owe to our citizens In Cuba to afford them that protection and Indemnity for life and property which no government there can or will nfford, and to that end terminate the conditions thut deprive mem of legal protection, Third, the right to Intervene may be Justified by the very serious Injury to the commerce, trade and business of our people nnd by the wanton destruction of property and devastation of the. Island. Fourth, and which Is of the utmost Importance, the present condition of uffuirs In Cuba Is a constant menace to our pence and entails upon this government enormous expenses. With such conflict waged for years In nn Island so near to us and with which our people have such trudo and business rclntluna-whcn the In ' and the establishment of a stable govern- "Va9,,8nntJ menlce S"ir property do-' men., capable of mulntalnln, ordsr in. constant ™na«' '"X^ives ruin- ! observing Its International obligations. |n.

The Tr*CSd- Ol the Maine. The elements of danger and disorder already pointed out havo been strikingly Illustrated by a tragic event which has deeply and Justly moved the American '"i have already transmitted to congress the report of the naval court of Inquiry on the destruction of the battleship Mallie In the harbor of Havana during t"° night of the lBth of February. The destruction of thut noble vessel hns tilled the national heurt with Inexpllciible horror; 258 brave sailors and murines, two officers of our navy, reposing In the funded security of a friendly harbor, hiive lieen hurled to dentil, grief and waul brought to their homes and sorrow to the nation. The naval court of Inquiry which, It is needless to say, commands tho unqualified confidence of the government, was unanimous In Its conclusion that the destruction of the Maine was caused by un exterior explosion; thut of a submnrliie mine. It did not assume lo place the responsibility. That remains to be fixed. In any event tho destruction of the Maine, by whatever cause, Is a patent and Impressive proof of a state of things in Cuba that Is Intolerable. That condition Is thus shown to be such that the Spanish government cnn not assure safety and security to u vessel of the American navy In Ihe harbor of Havana on u mission of peace and rightfully there. Spain \\ mils Arhllrntlon. Further referring. In this connection, to recent diplomatic correspondence, a dispatch from our minister to Spain of the 2tiih ult. contained the statement that tha Spanish minister for foreign affairs assured him positively Spain will do all thut the highest honor and Justice requires In the matter of the Muine. The reply above relerred to of the 31st ult. also contained an expression of the readiness of Spain to submit to arbitration all the differences which can urlse In this mailer, which Is subsequently explained by the note of the Spunlsh minister at Washington of the Kith Insl as follows: "As to the question of fact which springs from the diversified views between the report of the Americun and the Spi.nish bourds, Spnin proposes thut the fuct be ascertained by un iuipaiii.il !n- viitlgiitlon by experts which decision Spain acepts in advance." To this 1 have mnde no reply. President (.runt Quoted. President Grant In 1875. In discussing the purposes of the contest as it appeared then and Its hopeless and Indefinite prolongation, said: "In such event I am of the opinion that other nations will lie compelled lo assume (he responsibility which devolves upon them und to seriously consider Ihe only remaining measures possible, mediation and Intervention. Owing perhaps to the large expanse of water separating the Island from the peninsula, the contending parties appear to have within themselves no depository of common confidence t.. suggest wisdom, when passion and excitement have their sway, and thus as* sume ihe part of peacemaker." In ibis view, in the earlier days of thc contest, the good offices of the Unlt.d Slates as mediator were tendered In good faith, without anysielflsh purposes, In thr Interest of humanity and sincere friendship for Iwlh parties, but were ut the lime declined by Spain with the declaration, nevertheless, that at a future time they would be indispensable. No Intimation haa been received that in the opinion of Spain that time has been reached; yet the strife continues wlln ull of Its dread horrors and its injuries lo the I'nited Btates and other nations. Bach party seems quite callable of working great Injury and damage to the other .is well us to ull the relations and interests dependent on the existence of peace In the Island, but they seem incapable of reaching any adjustment, and both have thus far failed of achieving any success whereby one party shall possess nnd control the island to the exclusion of the other. Whnt Cleveland Snid. Under the circumstances the agency i t others, either by mediation or by Intervention, seems to be the only alternative which must sooner or later be invoked for the termination of the strife. In the last annual message of my immediate predecessor, during thc pending struggle, it was said: "When the inability of Spain to deal successfully wlrh the Insurrection has become manifest, and it Is demonatrated that her sovereignty Is extinct in Cuba, for all purposes of Its rightful exlB'cnce, and when a hopeless struggle for Its re- establishment has degenerated Into the strife which means nothing more than the useless sacrifice of human life and the utler destruction of thc very subject matter of the conflict, a situation will be presented In which our obligations to the sovereignty of Spain will be superceded by higher obligations which we can hardly hesitate to recognize and dls- ehurge." From Ihe Previous Message. In my nnnunl message to congress December last, speaking to this question, I said: "The near future will demonstrate whether the Indispensable condition of a righteous peace Just alike to the Cubans nnd Spain as well as equitable to all our Interests so intimately convolved in the welfare of Cuba, Is likely to be attained. if not further and other action by the I'nit..I States will remain to be taken. When that time comes action will lie determined in the line ot Indisputable right and duty; it will be faced without misgiving or hesitancy In thc light of the obligation this government owes to itself, to the people who confided to It the protection of their Interests und honor, nnd to immunity; sure of the right, keeping free from all offense ourselves, actuated hy upright and patriotic considerations, moved neither by passion nor selfishness, the government will continue Its watchful care over the rights and property of American citizens and will abate none ot its efforts to bring about, by peaceful agencies, a peace which shall be honorable and enduring. If it shall hereafter appear to be a duty imposed by our obligations to ourselves, to civilization and to humanity, to interveno with force It shall be without fault on our part nnd only because the necessity for such nc- llnn will be so clear as to command the r.upport and approval of the civilized world." The Wnr Mnst Stop, The long trial hns proved thnt the object for which Spain has waged war can not he uttalned. The fire of Insurrection may flame or may smoulder with varying seasons, but It has not been and 11 Is plain that It cun not bo extinguished by present methods. The only hope of relief and repose from a condition which can not longer be endured is the enforced pacification of Cuba. In the name of humanity, In the name of civilization, In the behalf of endangered American Interests, which give us Ihe right and the duty to speak and to act, the war In Cuba must stop, In view of these facta and these considerations, I nsk congress to authorize and empower the president to take measures to secure a full termination of hostilities between the government of Spain and the people of Cuba and lo secure in Ihe Isl- inay lie neeeasury for these purposes. And In the Interest of hiuuunlty and to aid In preserving tho lives of the starv- Ing people of the Island, I recommend thnt the distribution of food and su|ipll,.a be continued and thnt an appropriation be mnde out of the public treasury to supplement the charity of our cltlsens. The issue Is now with congress; It Is a solemn responsibility. I have exhausted every effort to relieve the Intolerable, condition of affairs which is at our doors; prepared to execute every obligation Imposed upon me 'by the constitution and iuw, I await your action. Veslerday and since the preparation of the forgoing message official information was received by me that the latest decree of (he queen regent of Spain dlrcc.s General Blanco, In order to prepare and facilitate peace, to proclaim a suspension of hostilities, Ihe duration and details ot which have not yet lieen communicated to me. This fact with every other pertinent consideration will, I am sure, huve your careful and Just consideration In Ihe solemn deliberations upon which you are about to enter. If this measure nt- iniii . u successful result then our usplra- tlons as a Christian, peace-loving people will be realised! ir li fails, it will be only another Justification for our contemplated action.

Cairo, April 10.—Tho Anglo-Egyptian forces under General Sir Kitchener rt- tacked the Dervish position yesterday and rushed Mahmoiid'H zaruba, the center of his fortifications, without check. The attack was entirely successful, as the Dervishes lost heavily. The Sirdar's force numbered 12,000 men with 24 guns, under Colonel Long, and 12 Maxims. Tho enemy left Shendy with 111,000 men. The enemy was at llrst practically concealed under ground in a strong samba. After an hour of heavy bombard- j nient the brigades were formed up and j carried the position at the point of tlis i bayonet under a tremendous fire from the | enemy. The znriiba was torn away, but the enemy obstinately clung to the trenches und were bayoneted In them. During the whole admirable bombardment by Colonel Long not a single Dervish was visible. Mahmoud was captured by the Tenth Soudanese battalion. He was underground thc whole time his men were lighting. I Ismail Digna fled as usual. The enemy's guns, baggage, animals and standards were captured. Colonel Murray had his horse shot under him and whs wounded in the arm.

DEAD UNDER MOUNTAIN SNOW, *WO HuiHirril People Overtaken l>> Slide on Ihe Trail-,llundreil* ol Men at Work In lleliii-- Shoreline Away the llebrla In Search of (he Mead and the l*.ln». Spring Humors Skaguay, Alaska, April 8 (via Seattle, April 0).—At about noon today on the Chilkool, trail between The Scales and Stone House at least UK) men met death, and a large number of others were injured more or less seriously, in a snow- slide. The dead were crushed under an avalanche if snow and ice, which came down from the mountain side upon the left-hand side of the trail about midway between The Scales and Stone House Kixty-liine dead liodiea have been thus far recovered, and the names of ISO missing oned have been reported as unuceount- ed for. It is barely possible that some of these had succeeded in crossing the. pass before the avalanche occurred. A conservative estimate is that between 7.i und 100 persona were killed. The point, at which tlio accident occurred is some five miles above. Sheep Camp. The nearest telephone station is four miles dis-! tant. The Scales is some five miles above Sheep Camp. The telephone wires at this point were carried away by the slide. This fact makes it difficult to obtain further particulars at this time. A blinding snowstorm was raging all day upon thc summit, and ns a consequence many of those iu the vicinity were making no attempt to travel. Zelmith. Sprague and Stevenson of Seattle were traveling together as partners and were found side bv side in bed. Thousands of people were encamped in the vicinity of the accident at the time and were soon upmi the scene rendering such assistance as was possible. Upon receipt of the news, points below Dyea telephoned up to know if assistance was required and received answer to the effect that 5000 people were al work upon the debris and were only in each other's way. All day Saturday and Sunday a southerly storm with chinook wind, rain and snow prevailed in the vicinity, and it is believed the softening of thc snow on thc mountain side by those agencies was the cause of the avalanche. The quantity of snow and ice that came down in the slide is estimated at thousands of tons. It swept directly across the trail, which, notwithstanding the fact lliat thc weather was unsuitable for travel, was thronged with wayfarers. The last vestige of (lie trail in thc vicinity was wiped out of existence, and where it leads is now a mountain of snow and ice, under which are many dead bodies that can not be recovered for days to come. Two or three thousand men ore working in relays of as many as can stand side by side, shoveling away tbe debris in search of the dead and dying. Twenty- two dead bodies hnve been recovered and identified and '25 have been taken out alive.

New York, April 10.—Rev. George C. Carter, of the Protestant ICpiscopnl Church of the Redeemer in Brooklyn, will use for the first time today a golden chalice and a communion service of solid silver. The gold and silver have been furnished by the members of his congregation. Some time agd thc rector suggested that a communion service could be obtained if tlie members of the church contributed small pieces of jewelry. The suggestion was immediately acted upon, nnd from the gold en rings, bangles and eardrops, silver trinkets and other articles of jewelry a magnificent chalice and communion service were made.

It seems probable that tho difficulty of treating* refectory silver-lead ore, containing much zinc, may be solved by a rew process. A very strong company styled the Smelting Corporation Limited, has at last been formcil in England for this purpose, with a caput of £600,000. Am ong its directors are fonnd a millionaire capatalist, an eminent scientist and well known business men, Thn company has strong financial backing. It takes over a business already established at Swansea South Wales, by H. R. Fry and others where refractory silver-lead ores containing zinc are stated to have bean successfully treated for some time by a patent which involves the use of fluxes composed of sulphate of soda and oxide of iron. It is claimed that by this process 90 per cent, of thc silver in refractoy ore can be profitably recovered, 87 per cent of the lead, ond 70 per cent, of thc zinc, use for a largo part of which can be had in the form of oxide of zinc If this process proves all that is claimed it mean-, much for undertaking, like the Galena Mine**, where the silver- lead ore is refractory and contains a large percentage of zinc.

SILVERTON, B, C In the Tuesday edition of tho Spokesman-Review we notice the following:— "Tho working force on the Comstock on Four Mile, in the Slocan, has been increased to 25." Wo do not know who the Slocan correspondent of tho Spokosman-Re- view may be, but it would be a good thing if ho could report the truth in his articles. The foroo at Ihe Corn- stock has boon decroased to 25, and has never had less than that number at work all winter. If some of tho reporters who undortake to supply mining nows to newspapers would throw out thoir feet, and learn to distinguish between a tunnel and a location post, it would better satisfy their readers. And those papers which satirically style themselves mining papers, with their mining news clipped outright, without credit, from the Spokesman-Review, would do well to gi\e their subscribers something else to read besides these clippings, and jokes—also clipped. a 200 Gases Goodwin's Candles 100 cases Hamilton powder One car Cumberland coal and one car fresh groceries. t I *VVWVVVV"-W-^rWVVV***A»'VS»V J.A.M'KINNON&CO. (Silverton* _B. O. SEASONABLE TALK. The Spring is now with ns and everyone from the humblest prospector to the biggest mine owner are doing their figuring and making calculations on this si'innier's work. It is of most vital importance to the business men of Silverton and all other Slocan Lake towns that tbe waggon roads running to the different mines be put into good shape in order not to interfere more than can possibly be helped with tho continuous running of the different properties at full blast The season of snowslides will soon be over, and it stands the citizens of the lake towns in hand to clear out the roads where snowslides may have swept across and tilled or otherwise damaged them Also to cut jams or other obstructions out of the creek beds before high water, to keep the creeks from becoming darned up and overflowing the roads, washing it out, and doing more damage iu an hour than can be replaced iu a week. By talking this thing over and coming to some understanding with the various mine superintendents before the slides are all down, when the proper inomeut arri.es everything will be arranged and no time will be lost, ai what needs to be done must be done promptly. Tbe time will be short, A washed out road will do us as much harm as the shutting down of half the mines. In fact, at the present time, and until the roads again become passable, the mines will work but a very small force of men and no new mine can bo started up. Tbe bringing in of supplies, machinery, or starting the erection of concentrators must necessarily be at a standstill. We are wholly and solely a mining community and therefore tho prosperity of the mines means the prosperity of the towns, and the keeping of these running is of vital importance. Of the importance of tho road question, for example, take the Enterprise that works ordinarily from 30 to 40 men, but ia now getting along with eight, aod the Comstock that can give etn- "Early to bod, early to rise, dont get tight, and advertise," was thp motto prescribed for business by Robert .0. Ogdon of tho John Wanamsker firm when addressing tho Merchants' Association in New York, lie further said: "A great dual of advertising fails because the advertiser gets discouraged. Advertising to be successful should be continuous. The advertiser to be successful must have courage. Most men are afraid to go beyond a certain point Having placed $20,000 they should not fail to put ou the extra $5.00; or they may lose the benefit of the $20,000. If a inon has not tho money to advertise he might as well go out of business." TheC. P. R. defeated iu the Commons in Ihe great struggle against the Corbin Railway 15:11, h»ve now turned their attention to tbe Senate snd will endeavor to secure their eni—tlie monopoly of the Boundary Creek trade—through that body. Bat the Senate, it is hoped, will show the sain- discretion in approving of the House of Commons vote as they did when tbe Yukon Railway Bill was buried beyond the sound of Gabriel's trump. The Eastern government organs have been raising u great howl ugaius tho Senate's action regarding the Yukon Railway Bill. They unuounce that the Senate has cut its own throat, signed its own death warrant and so on. If the Senate has doue nothing else, it has warranted its continuance by thc nn ritous action it look when Manu-Mackonzio were turned down Those newspapers who are actively cpgaged in vilifying and bespattering the Ministers with mud which will not stick, aro in the predicament of wanting something to kick about and cannot fiud it. Wh_t scathing articles these opposition editors would write if they really had a kick coming. It is reported that Dave King, editor of the Kootcnaian, will be a candidate for the Provincial Legislature at the coming elections. Poor Dave, he always had his littlo faults, but we never thought he would come to this. The publisher of the Craubrook Hearld announces that his paper has a guaranteed circulation of 1000 copies. We wonder what they do with the other GOO.
