bounds a population whose aims
would   be similar   in almost every
respect.
BUSINESS Ml KWESSIWUl CUBS
The present system of representation is like an old coat which the
young and vigorous province has
outgrown—it is worn threadbare
and only fits in spots. A redistribution bill l-ased on population
would result in cutting down the
surplus crop of "little islanders"
in the legislature, and in adding
largely to the representation from
the great interior mining  districts.
In framing such a bill it would
be advisable to arrange the constituencies in such a manner as to separate as much as possible the - mining and agricultural districts. This
is the only way to get a correct expression of the needs of the different interests.
A question agitating a mining
section for instance, may have no
interest to an agricultural one, and
vice versa.
It may happen that the voting
strength of one interest is slightly
stronger than the other, and an expression of the minority's wants is
smothered by the apathy or antagonism of the majority's, which
would not be the case if the mining
and agricultural sections were kept
separate. This section which will
some day support a great mining
population should be cut off Irom
the northern farming and ranching
districts, and combined with the
mining camps east and west, thus
forming a constituency in which
the interests of a vast majority of |
the voters would identical.

EDITORIAL NOTES.
How can the Government expect
the people to be satisfied with a
system that keeps the road superin*
tendent Arthur Stevenson at L-yt-
ton, 140 miles away ? Why not
instruct the Government Agent
here to have such work as is needed attended to ?
Ashnola people should send a
delegation to the capital to ask for
an appropriation to improve the
road between/nat town and Princeton. Eitbe*/a good road or a pipe
line to connect us with the brewery
will be a necessity during the com-
We mentioned in the Star last
week that tbe road at China* Creek
was in bad condition, and within
forty-eight hours after the work
needed was done.
Some immediate effort should be
made by Princeton citizens to remind the Government and our
member, Mr. Murphy, that the
court house and recorder's office
have no furniture—not even a chair.
This is surely not an oversight on
the part of our business (?) Government ! If so we trust this little hint
will have the desired effect.
Now that Denis Murphy has
gone over to the right side, we hope
von't fail to get a sum placed
on the supplementary estimates sufficient to make marked improvements in the road between Princeton and Granite Creek, and to correct some of the errors in construction made by the government road
superintendent Arthur   Stevenson.

Both SoRRY.-Laurier says he is
sorry that he cannot recognize Martin's Liberal leadership. Martin is
still sorrier.—Rossland World.
Temporary Trouble.—The
problem of transportation and the
problem of markets, will- be greatly
simplified when British Columbia
has as many people as it now has
hundreds of thousands, and that is
a very modest expectation. All
British Columbia's troubles are
temporary. The building of railways and the filling up of the west
will solve them in a few years.—
Toronto Globe.
The proper course for the house
to pursue at this juncture is to
agree to pass a redistribution bill at
once. The government can then
go to pieces or continue in business,
as may be. A dissolution before
passing such a measure would be
productive of no good result. There
never will be a properly -representative legislature until this is done.—

past and in other mining camps in
the world, that veteran operators
will consider the figures with a
great deal of skepticism. The reasons for the extreme low cost is the
vast extent of the ore bodies, the
solid material of the ore itself, its
character as to the constituent
parts, and the possibilities afforded

The chief cost is in mucking, breaking up enormous boulders of ore,
some of which will equal five or six
tons in size, and where hoisting is
necessary, in the cost for hoisting.
" Because of these conditions
which may be said now to be practically proven, at least for some
years to come, the low grade ores
of the Boundary country can be
worked at a profit, with copper at
ten cents per pound in New York.
The gold value in these ores, which
are of a variable quantity, .sometimes reaching three-quarters of an
ounce per ton, and rarely, if ever,
running below one dwt. per ton, together with the low silver values,
may be said to be the salvation ofl
SMELTEB PURCHASED.
It is announced that the negotiations for the transfer of the '' Pyritic " smelter at Boundary Falls to
the Montana & Boston Copper Co.,
owners of the Sunset mine near
Greenwood, has been successfully
consummated. This is very pleasing and welcome intelligence, as
the welcome of another large smelter in the Boundary district means a
further considerable increase of ore
production from that territory.
The company in question has already shown excellent judgment in
the manner in which the Sunset
mine has been placed upon a productive footing.—Mining Record.
Copper appears to have slipped
out of the control of the Amalgamated, which may prove to be a
blessing to the smaller producers.—
