SILVERTON, BRITISH COLUMBIA, SATURDAY APRIL 33. 1898. AT THEJURPRISE Ono of the Brigp & Grady tirunp on Alpha Mountain. 1KWH.4* ORE WUXEH AT PAYNE B(JRI.KD. mun.l »n Whitewater »»ep-»t»lk. ou Kifiu «•«•• Ceseh-Mlf Compressor l*r ir*» ••*«••• The BrifEs and Grady group of claims, situate on Alpha mountain and immediately adjoining that well known property, are but little kuown, for the gimplo reason that although there has been consideiable work done on them and a large body of remarkabley rich ore exposed, there baa been no blow or bra* over their various strikes by the owners Tbo ground consists of tbe Suprise, Standard, Shunieau and Echo claims, all of which are Crown Granted. The principal work has been done on the Suprise claim which lies just east of and adjoining the Alpha. The Alpha ledge lias been traced sirosa thia claim and over onto the Standard. A tunnel haa been driven on the vein a distance of HO. feet and a crosscut made at the end of the iii'-nel both waye.For the first 50 feet tbe streak ot clean ore is from 18 inches to two feet and tor tbe last 50 Im* the i lean ore occures in bunches.but at though they arts irregular they are continuous, dig where you like, roof, ioor, or on either side of tho tunnel, Lugo boulders of clean ore sre encountered. Tbo whole tunnel is in the Icdae neither wall being exposed an I nil the matter taken out is a fair quality of con- contrating ore. The crosscpt in tlie vein »t the face of tjie tunnel is 55 feet and i lie b-pgiug trail has deen reached but tbe foot -VH.I haa uot been exposed. The vein i.H fairly fiat and haa a dip of not lo exceed 45 per cent and is not leas than 20 feet wide. Iu running this tunnel I bey have taken out and piled on Ibe dump about 30 Ions of cleau ore, and not ntiiui. pains were tiilr-n to keep it from mixing with the concentrates and qui) •.lit big chunks of i-lesn (.re saved and the balance thrown over Iho dump, wiih the concentrates. It is auto lo say that uot less than 60 tons of clean on- raiue out of this blunt tunnel, a: it as .ill other nutter handled a ill qi.ko a f ir concentrate, It is a remarkable fine showing. The ore is tlie same as thai taken out of Ihe Alpha workings, a (in. -Miri,-,l ateel galena tarrying a high per • ivniaj-i- of grey copper and running from l -0 to 750 ounces of silyer to tbe ton ami from 50 to 82 per cent, lead, it being about the purest load ore carrying silver evi r discovered in the world. Tho formation is the same as all the properties on this portion of the Alpha mountain lii'ing slate with occasional dykes of porphyry and qtiartzite, The next claim down Ihe mountain by tbe trend of the vein ia the Standard. On this claim tlide. ii a tunnel in 00 feet but it has not yet reached the Vein. Thero bis been a little surface work done on tho vein, Im1 as it is large nnd ibe work small it bus accomplished but liitb* except to trace the ledge. The Shunieau clxim lies di rcctly below the Suprise snd covers all that ground ar the base of the mountain that lies between the main Alpha bill and the Emily Edith claim which it adjoins. Thero is a well deflbed vein on this claim and a shaft has been sunk 30 feet on it. In the bottom of tho shaft is two feet of ore. There is hardly any doubt but the Emily Edith lodge DrOMM tbis claim and it is the intention cf the "wuuis tomsko a systematic search for it this spring. The Echo claim lies west of and adjoins the Alpha and has the Alpha vein exposed on it by shallow surface working. Active work will bo resumed this spring on this group of ' .alius and it is reasonable to suppose that thjs property will be added to the list of Silverton's shipping mines this woason. t TBI KB ON EIGHT MILE A tunnel has been driven 175 feet on the Ready Claim at the head of Eight Mile creek this winter, by J. M. Miles and S. Sanson the ownora. They i-^ye •truck a streak of ore that varies in width from four inches to two leet. A BIG COMPRESSOR. The War Eagle Mine at Uoeeland. has placed an order with tlie James Cooper Manufacturing (.'p., Ltd., of Montreal, for a Gfi-drill air compressor. This will be the largest compreai-or ever built in Canada. The fly-wheel is 22 feet in diameter, and weighs about 25 tons. Tho compressor will be run by an electric motor. FOR WORKMEN L n.

E DITOa Sit VBKTOWIAX ! Dear Sir- I wish to summon the attention of all lyarkiiigmen, and ot al! haters of opp. resaiou and wronu, to tbo Bill called tha "Truck Act, 181$ " intorduced by Mr Kellie, It is based word for word, tor the most part, on the old Imperial Track Art of 1881, ( in force in Ibis Brorinoe but seldom entqrcpd, more is the shame) amalgamated with the still more strjn- geot amendment of the Imperial Amend ing Act of 1887. It is aimed at the shameful tyranny and plunder done' to wmkmen by mine-owners, contractors, foremen and others, who compel their workmen to deal at their shops, and board at their hoarding houses. To such an extent is this shameful abuse grown, that it is said to be actually difficult around Rossland for a married man to get work, the mine owners insist on Ilie men boarding at their shacks, for the scurvy profit of running them. But the mere loss and robhpry of the workman ia the least of the evil, the workman is wholly in the boss's hands; o**d especially where a -named man, a coal miner say, once runs in debt at the boss's store, then, with bis whole living from day to •lay and from month to month entirely ce|)i'i)dent, both wages snd credit, on the grace of ihe boss, and no other cmpl ovment perhaps within hundreds o< mile*, vou have real slavery. The treatment of their workmen by the contractors fnr tlie Victoria City Water Works la well known. ' Eighty to! ei/hty men were crowded nn banks three or four d*ep in n stinking little shack full of bclea all around, with their working overall.-!, reeking with foul lake mud, I anging ou Die bnpk ride; thev were charged |8 CO a week, whether there tbe full week or not, even when tbey went home from Saturday to Monday ; and compelled to submit ou pain of il>init"-*al. many a man brought home on Sa'urday but *2 00 or |3 25 for his family, all that the boss's extortion had left for a week's toil. The Bill, following the In-Renal Act, directs, in effect, that every workman rdinll be paid hia wages in cash and in full, no matter what he owes his employer. There are a number of carefully limited exceptions, things for which a master, if Ibe workman agrees in writing, may deduct from wages, but tbe price must be fair. Of course, tbe employer is always quite free to run a store of. boarding house if he likes, and the workman to deal there if he pleases, but he cannot be compelled to do so, nor dismissed if he do not. As regard* board and lodging, the employer can. if tlie workman agrees in writing, deduct from wages a fair price for viluals consumed, if the works are over two miles from any incorporated city or town, otherwise pot. He can no where compel his workmen lo board with him. In case local Justices should be influenced, tho -yprk *u-m nmy take out a summons before the local County CoUrt Judge or any Supreme Court Judge in the same way as before tho local J 1" s. The public and especially the workman of British Columbia should closely follow the progress of the Bill. Its adversaries are not likely to defeat it direct, on account of the elections, but they will arrange to have it talked oul, or to maul it in committee; nnd a very small change of its wording might easily deprive whole classes of workmen of the protection they most need.

Washington, April 18. — .Immediately upon thc house convening at 10- o'clook this morning nn adjournment was taken until tbo regular hour at noon. The reason given for adjournment was that, no message could be received from tlie senate until that body was in session. After the adjournment the republican loaders continued laboring with their colleagues, who obstinately refused to acquiesce The republican opposition, though small, was resolute, nnd, headed by Messrs. Lorimer, Mann nnd Bromwell, most of them refused to be persuaded. The populists decided to stand by the sennto resolution. Thc scene on tho floor resembled a political convention more than the house of representatives. Members were scurrying nbout, caucusing in groups nnd discussing the situation. Tho uncertainty of the situation wns admitted on all hands. Tlie republicans of several state delegations caucused. Shortly before noon Senator Ilnnna appeared on the floor of the house and hnd a consultation with GrosVenor, who thought tho action of the house very doubtful Immediately after rending the senate resolutions, which were vociferously cheered hy the democrats, Mr. Dingley was recognized and moved concurrence in thc sennto resolutions with an amendment striking out the clause recognizing the independence of the existing republic. As amended by the house, the senate resolution will rend: "First—Thnt the people of the island of Cuba of right ought to be free and independent." Dingley then .demanded the previonp question, which'served to cut oft amendment and debate. Mr. Johnjpn, republican, of Indiana, wanted to nsk unanimous'Consent to ad- !. dress life house in antagonism to the Ding- . ley motion, bill" it Was'howled down by the republicans. But when Mr. Bromwell, rcpublicnVi;1 of Ohio, irf moment Inter declared he »'.ished to offer nn nmendment to concur, the democrats seht up cheer after cheer, and the republican side remained ominously silent Tlie speaker informed Bromwell that' his motion cb\ild not be entertained until Dingley's hnd been disposed of. No division wns nsked for on the motion for the previous question, but upon : the main question a chorus of voices from both sides went up for ayesva"nd noes. The roll call was watched w_th-intense interest. The announcement o! the vote-rl"D to 150—was loudly applauded. Fourteen republicans voted with the democrats nnd populists. Mr. Sherman of New York then submitted a statement clearing up Uie Brumm- Bartlett incident of last week and it was received with applause from both sides. The house then took- up regular business. Called Herd n I.lnr. * After Mr. Dingley moved to concur, with mi amendment striking out the recognition clause, Mr. Bailey nsked if u motion to concur wns in-order. Mr. Keed ignored the question. Bailey angrily cried- out:.- "Does thc cjiair refuse to answer a respectful in- ••'«r*Hi#!*Li..:/; ;'. -v <•- . . . The speaker answered: "The cfiafr does • pot i-rfuse t* .-answer respectful inquiries," with much emjihasis on "respectful."' Bailey demanded to know if the speaker called his inquiry "^iot respectful." He was. ignoretf ngni*j,-ttna> then lie vehement- . Jy denounced the speaker's statement. "I * am* sufficiently fh order to announce the statement of the speaker as false," yelled Bailey. The house was in wild confusion and another riot seemed imminent. "Regular order" was called, however, and the scrapping discontinued. Tin- vote on Dingley s motion ns officially announced wns — yens 170, nnys 158. Keurteen republicans broke the party lines and voted no, as follows: Bromwell, Brown, Colson, Cooper (Wisconsin), Dorr, Johnson (Indiana), Johnson (North Dakota), Lorimer, Loud, Maha-nv, Mann. Sulloway, Warner and White (Illinois). One popiiHsf, 'Howard (Alabama), voted nyo with the republicans. .-. Stsitnli- Refuses to Confer. , ,Wa»huigtpn>£April 18.—As soon as the decision of 'the house became known the 'senafexi'littinl-i'r became the scene of many animated conferences. The leaders of the ib-iiKK ruts, populists and silver republicans got together and immediately word wns passed around to non-concur in the house nmendment and not ngree to a conference, thus throwing the responsibility fpr delay upon the house. Ten republi- .'can senators opposed concurrence in the ■ lniii.se amendment., ■ The resolutions, aft amended by the house, were received in the senate, at 2:53 p. m. ' On motion of Senator Davis, the Cuban resolution was laid before the senate. Davis addressed the senate, detailing tlio effect of the action of the house. He said many lives had passed away while congress was debating the question, and the Maine disaster still remained unavenged. He thought, therefore, there should be no further delay. Davis thought the independence of Cuba would quickly follow intervention. In order to secure hasty action, l>avis moved concurrence in the house action. Senator Stewart opposed concurrence, but yielded the floor for the vote ,on the suggestion of Senator Teller. The yens Hnd nays were ordered. At 3:10 the vote was taken on Davis' motion to concur in the house amendment. The motion was defeated, and the senate refused to concur—yeas 32, nays 40. Ten republicans voted without division to insist on its amendments. Senator Hnle urged the importance of huving a conference. He said there could be only ono nim lu the proceedings agnlnst a conference nnd that wns to dragoon everybody into supporting recognition of Cuban independence. The motion lor a conference committee was defeated— 84 to 43. The resolution was sent bnck to the house. Admiral Mloard on Only. Washington April 18.—Probably with the view of availing himself of the large experience of Rear Admiral Sicard, Secretary Long has revoked thc sick leave of that officer and ordered him to duty at his own office in the navy depnrtment within 24 hours, lielng familiar with every detail of construction nnd the strength nnd weukness of every vessel in the fleet ifnder Captain Sampson as well ns those now lying at Hampton Ronds under Schley, the admiral is expected to ho of great assistance to the depnrtment in tho arrangement of any campaign. Offered Cuban Bond*. Washington, April 18.-—The personal statement of a prominent newspaper publisher owning two papers, that he had lieen offered $2,000,000 in Cuban bonds if he would support recognition of Cuban independence! is hnving great effect among the members. It is coupled with the statement that the offer was made, by a man showing the uutliorify of the Cuban junta. He told the members the offer wns accompanied wtih the guarantee that a bank would pay 40 cents on tho dollar when independence is recognized. Spain Borrows Money. London, April 18.—It is reported Spain is attempting to raise a $20,000,000 loan in London. Here and There. Washington, April 18.—Tlie ten republican senators who have stood for the Tur- pio amendment have practically agreed to surrender that amendment providing the language of tho first proposition declaring that the people of Cuba "arc free and independent" is restored. In Consultation. Washington, April 18.—Attorney General Griggs, Secretaries Long and Sherman nnd Assistant Secretary Day had an hour's conference with tho president today. The purpose of thc meeting, it is believed, had special reference to the Cuban resolutions in congress. From reliable sources It is learned the president will probably return tho resolutions without his approval, in order to maintain thc prerogative which he holds is clearly his under the constitution. No one in official circles doubts that a hostile resolution will be passed by congress within the next day or two, and war will almost certainly follow Spanish Torpedo .Boat*. Provincctown, Mass., April 18.—Captain Kebb of the bnrkentine Morales, who reached this port today from Pone, Porto Rico, reports that on April 6 eight Spanish torpedo boats arrived at that port from the Canaries. Two Spanish men-of-war were there already. A Spanish cruiser also was. sighted as the vessel sailed. At Cape Verde Islands.

Falmouth, Eng., April 18.—The United States torpedo boat Somers was further damaged today, entailing further delay to her departure. BIO INCREASE OF THE NAVY. A YOUTHFUL EXEQETE. All Fonr American Liner*—More Warships and Torpedo Boats. Washington, April 16.—Several important and decisive steps in the work of war preparations were taken by the navy department yesterday. It was decided to assign the naval reserves of New York, New Jersey, Massachusetts, Maryland and Michigan to the five auxiliary cruisers, hereafter to lie known as patrol boats. The uqestion of the American line steamers was also wound up today at the direction to charter all four of them—the St. Louis, St. Paul, Paris and New York. With the announcement thnt these magnificent ships had been added to the auxiliary fleet came the statement that the department also had purchased the Yorktown of the Old Dominion line and the Yumuri of the Ward line. Put of greater moment than any of these developments was the reopening of negotiations for the purchase of two warships and several torpedo boats from Chile and Argentina. One of the criusers is the Chilean cruiser O'Higgins, just completed at an English yard and regarded as one of the most formidable of her class afloat. These negotiations are being Conducted by Charles R. Hint of New York, who has large commercial and financial interests in both countries. Orders have been issued to the naval reserves of Massachusetts, Maryland, New York and New Jersey to hold themselves in readiness for duty on patrol ships, but tlio militia will not actually go into service aboard the ships until it is certain that hostilities are to ensue Merriam Goes to San Pranelsco. Vancouver Barracks, Wash., April 18— General H. C.

Whether General Merriam will tako up his residence in San Francisco or remain here will depend upon the exigencies of the service. Bash at the llnpont Mills. Penns Grove, N.

A fin Id of Spanish I'lratrs. San Francisco, April 10. — Humors of thc impending war have caused a marked decrease in the possenger business of the Pnciflc Mail and Oriental and Occidental steamship companies. Twenty passengers booked for the orient by a recent outgoing steamer cancelled their booking a few days before the steamer sailed, owing to fear of being held up by privateers on the high sens.

The little son of a well- known naval officer stationed here has advanced a new version of an old text. The wife's mother, who makes her heme with her daughter, Is of the old school, n dear creature, with puffs and caps, wbo reads her Bible from preference. It Is a custom for her to teach her little grandson every day a verse from the Bible, and on Saturday of last week the verse selected was: "Remember the Sabbath day, to keep It holy." The child had unusual difficulty In committing the verse, but, once mastered, It must have settled deep Into the very largest bralu cell possessed by the little fellow. Sunday morning the youngster came, fresh, white and starched, from his nurse's hands, and was deposited on the front porch until the family assembled for church. Emerging at the last moment, the mother was horrified at the sight of her small offspring seated upon the terrace digging with all his might into the moist ground. "Baby, baby, come here this minute. Don't you know It Is naughty to play on Sunday, and get yourself all dirt?" cried the mother. The little fellow looked up with a puzzled air, and made answer*. "Why, muvrer dear, I Is digging holes for Sunday." "Digging holes for Sunday? What nonsense! You bad, bad little son," returned the mother, none too gently, trying to rescue the once Immaculate suit. "Now, muvver, dear, I did learn ve verse from grandma, and It was 'Remember ve Sabbath day to keep it holy,' and I is only digging ve holes for Sunday to make It holy, and I isn't a bad 'lttle son st all." There was a suspicious trembling about the mouth, but It Is needless to relate that the little philosopher was caught In his mother's arms aud kissed before the cry developed, and that he was given two plates of Ice cream for his Sunday dinner, all because of his original theory.—Washington Star. THE HEAD OF OUR ARMY. Gen. Miles Is Knlljr Acquainted with All of War's Horrors. Gen. Miles, as well as almost all of the other generals of the army, entered the lnte war with the volunteers. They are therefore fnniillar with the needs and weaknesses of raw recruits, as well as the proper handling of well-trained men. Hen. Miles bait passed his majority by only a year when he took the field as a first lleutennnt in 1801. Four years luter he was commissioned a colonel and brevetted a major general for extraordinary bravery. No privations of war could terrify hint.

Innumerable cats, fighting, tearing about under the windows and howling at thc top of their unmelodlous voices, have made many sleepless nights for the family of Farmer Myers, residing not far out of Doylestown. Tbey came from all the country around, choosing tbe yard as the place for high carnivals. In vain Mr. Myers hurled bootjacks, fired bis shotgun and shouted for the nocturnal rioters to disperse. As summer wore away and autumn took Its place they appeared In greater troops than ever. A few days ago nn artist entered the farm quarters while painting autumn landscapes, and It Is to this man's Ingenuity that Farmer Myers Is at last well rid of the nuisance. One night of jthe uproar wns enough to arouse the clever boarder to action. With phosphorescent pnlnt he sketched the likeness of a ferocious bulldog on each -Id,* of the house, aud confidently promised the farmer that there would be no more disturbance. When darkness fell again the figures of the dogs stood out In luminous relief, nppearlug like tbe ghosts of real animals awaiting their prey.

KiilalLli MjudU-ate Secures an Option of a Rossland Property- Work lu the Pierre's Lake DIs- trlet-Athabasca Mine Floated In Lonil-.n-l'liK-ei- In the Upper llnlse. The quarts ledges of the Coeur d'Alenc gold belt nre divided into two distinct classes, says the Murray (Idaho) cone- spondent of the Spoknno Spokesman-Review. The one on which the most work has been done nre small veins running front n few inches up to three or four feet, tho value is ordinarily only $0 to $8 per ton. There are frequently pockets found in all of them which will run as high as $2000 or even higher. These pockets urc sometimes quite extensive, as much as |00,000 having lx>en taken from a single pocket, and several others have closely approached these figures If one of these veins is opened nt a pocket it can he worked by poor men, as enough cnn lie taken from the pocket to open up the claim and tide the owners over until another pocket is struck. If a pocket is not found nt first the owner holds on, doing his annual assessment work, knowing that sooner or later he will strike one, and if it is one of considerable size he will he Independent thereafter No mine will ever be found among ledges of this class tluit will become known throughout the mining world, although thero will be a lot of them that will make comfortable fortunes for their owners, and a combination of several of them niny become a really great mine. It is in these ledges thnt the success of the. camp lies, as they **"*ll always insure a divided ownership, the other class are large leads running Iron 10 feet in width upwards to 50 feet or even more. While extremely rich ore has been taken from them, in the main they run more regular values than the small leads, and from a few assays taken at random one can determine pretty closely what the average value of the vein will be, barring the change that, will come With depth. These will run from $8 to $15 per ton, a value that would pay well if thc gold could lie readily extracted, but the ore is generally Isise after the first few feet lie- low the first surface, and it requires expensive appliances to work thein to advantage. While it costs $28 per ton for freight and smelter treatment, nnd without extensive plants of the most approved machinery a large part of the assay value is lost in the tailings, little can be done with them by men of limited means. Eventually numbers of them lying contiguous to each other will come into the possession of men or companies of large means and they will develop into rivals of the llomestake and Trendwell. While most of the wealth of the district will Anally Come from the leads of this class, they will not lie of so great value to the camp as the small ones, for they will throw the control into thc hands of too few men. While gold and silver form the principal values of this class of leads, there is sonic lead and copper in them, one of them in particular, which is now in mind, having pretty general assay return* if 10 per cent lead. Of course there are sonic exceptions to this general classification, but thc differences noted here will apply to nine out of ten of the veins in the gold'belt. Tbe Iron Colt. The property of thc Iron Colt Gold Mining Company, Limited, which consists of the Iron Colt mine, situated on Columbia and Kootenay mountain, in the Rossland district, has lieen optioned to an Knglish syndicate. The terms of the option arc private, but it is snid to Ih* about $100,000. The purchasers, it is said, are amply supplied with funds and stand ready to expend a large amount for development work. The sum of $30,000 has been expended in development work, and the property is fairly well opened. What is now needed is capital to sink to a lower level. There is a strong lead uncovered that is from 0 to 86 feet wide, 80 feet in depth and 300 feet in length (one of the largest ore chutes in thc camp), and nins about $0.50 a ton. There are 2500 tons on the dump. The company was incorporated in October, 1890, with a capital stock of share, and the money so derived was spent $1,000,000. Some 240,000 shares of the treasury stock was sold at IS cents per in Ihe work of development. There is still a balance in the treasury. There are also some 40,000 shares of the treasury stock on hand. The ore of the Iron Colt contains an excess of iron and is therefore iu demand for flux. Thc smelters pay a bonus for each unit of iron contained in such ore. The property is highly valued by thc chief shareholders, and some of them are loath to part with their holdings, be-ansc they think the property has merit. It is believed thnt richer ore chutes will be encountered when a greater depth has been reached. Pierre's Lake District. K. T. Trimble of Colfax was on the reservation the other day for the purpose of viewing the work done on property in which he is interested on Sulphide mountain, in the Pierre's Like district. Mr. Trimble is president of the Sulphide Mountain Milling and Mining Company, composed of business men of Portland nnd Colfax. Tho ore is copper and galena, and runs well in gold and silver. A small crew has been at work this winter sinking a shaft, which is down about 50 feet. Thc ledge is quartz, with dioritc and slate on the foot woll, serpentine ganguo rock and porphyry on Ihe hanging side. It runs northeast, and southwest, dipping a little to the east. At 30 feel a crosscut wus made. The ledge had widened considerably fn m the surafce and showed a fine ore body of from four to five feet. Assays taken from the ledge at this depth gave a value of $58.28; of this, $17.34 was in gold, the remainder being copper, lead and silver. Work is to be pushed to the 100-foot level, where another crosscut will be made, and it is thought. Hint the company will be in position to ship ore by that time The Corbin surveys runs within a wile of thin property. The Athabasca Mine.. News come, that the Athabasca mine.

The stock of the company will be taken in hand by three leading brokers of the London stock exchange and will be sold at not less Uian 70 cents per share, which will net $700,000 for the mine. Deducting a commission of 10 per cent for the brokers, the stockholders may expect to receive 03 cents per share. Ten per cent of the agreed price of the stock, $70,000, lias been paid. It ia further provided by the terms of tho transaction that thc sum of $100,000 shall •io furnished at once, in addition to tho amount paid, and this will be applied to tho development work and the purchase of machinery. Other payments will be made during the summer, as the stock is sold. In tbe I'pprr Boise.

Thus prepared, this able *om- mander marched a body of soldiers along the road by which the pirate* must come, and when he found a suitable spot he built a formidable barricade. Behind this his soldiers were posted with their muskets and their cannon. Bat when Morgan came within sight of thia barricade, he considered that It would be entirely unnecessary to attempt to disturb this admirable defonse, so he marched his men Into the wooda, led them entirely around the burrlcade, snd came out upon a wide plain before the town. Here he found that he would have to fight bis way Into the city, and probably much to his surprise his men wero presently charged by a body of cavalry. The pirates routed the horsemen, and, after a fight of about four hours, took possession of the town. Here they captured n great many prisoners, whom they shut up In the churches, and then sent detachments out Into the country to look for those who had run away. Then these utteny debased and cruel men took their usual course after capturing a town; they pillaged, feasted, and routed. Rven when the poor citizens seemed to have given up everything they owned, they were told that If they did not pay two heavy ransoms they would be carried away Into slavery, and that their town would be burned. For two weeks the pirates waited for the unfortunate people, to go out into the country and find some of their fellow- cltlzens who had escaped with a portion of their treasure. In those days people did not keep their wealth in banks as tbey do now, but every man was the custodian of most of his possessions, ami when they lied from the visitation of an I enemy they took with them everything Ol value that they could carry. Before the clli.ens returned Morgan made a dls-1 covery; a negro was taken who was car- lying letters from the governor of San- ' tlago, a neighboring city, to some of the citizens of Port-au-Prince, telling them not to be In too great a hurry to pay the ransom, because he was coming with a | strong force to their assistance. When Morgan read these letters he changed his mind and thought It would be a wise Ihlng not to stay In tnat region any longer than could be helped. So he decided not to wait for the unfortunate citizens to collect the heavy ransom he demanded, but told them thnt If they would furnish him with .ri00 head of cattle and also supply salt und help prepare the meat for shipment, he would make no further demands upon them.

This question was » idely discusied only a year ago and should be settled soon one way or the other. We quote the following from the Nelson Tribune, a publication that can see no redeeming feature in any of the local government's actions, from its criticism of the amendment to the Mineral Act "It. would be a great injustice to sacrifice the interests of Ihoee who have invested tln-Jr millions iu the minus of this country. Warn {ha clause adopted, more than fifty per cent, of ihe mines would I* closed down, the towns would becomo deserted, and disaster overwhelm business. How the clause in question csu In- distorted so as to eir-ct those who have invested millions is beyond us. How often lias it to us pointed oi.it to these critics of an alien exclusion act that the act would not be retroactvie nor invalidate any location made prior to the passing of tbe act. Tbe blue ruin to follow this act if passed exists only in the imaginations of tlie vt-riters of suoh as tbe above. By all means let foreign capital be used here. Let foreigners develops our mines after the purchase price has b' i n given to the Canadiau locator, but let us reserve the right to locate them to Canadian prospectors. There is nothing to prevent foreign - era from becoming British subjects and no self respect need be lost in so doing. If our American cousins are as is claimed the model miniug nation, why then should we not adopt their law rcgardihg the right of location belonging only to citixens. Every muting state in the Union has flourished under a similar law aud foreign capital is more widely employed there than it ever has been here. The i(}ea that Canada must have help from abroad in all h(tr undertakings while her citizens remain dormant, icoing their birthright being secured by others,has become antiquated.

RFDlrjTRIBimON The Redistribution Bill introduced last week must be recogniz-d by all as au extremely fair measure. Kootenay will now have nearly one seventh of the repiesentatives in the House in place of one eleventh as before. The Opposition who were taunting the Government with being afraid of adding to Kcotenays member* are now wrathy at what they are pleased to call gerrymandering. We have hot towns in our province but they are frigid in comparison to Grand Forks when the news of Corbin'a defeat was heard. Tub cry has always been 'encourage the bringing in of foreign capital" hut apparently the Dominion Government do not intend ui to get It- Capital will surely rutb in when it hears the rebuff that Cot bin received. Oi.B articles on the mines adjacent to Silverton are receiving considerable attention from outsiders. We rely on the mining men to help ui make our reports as accurate as possible. A, bishop who recently pajsed through our city was asked by a boy on hoard the steamor Slocan where his bicycle wai. A local mining papor says the Enterprise mine has ten years ore in sight.
