PRINCETON, B.C., WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 23, 1907. $2 a Year, in Advance LIBERALS IN SESSION Local Liberals Receive Assurance that Platinum Expert Will Investigate. Daily Mail to Keremeos and Direct Service to Boundary and Spokane. Ore Exhibit. At the Liberal Association meeting held last night there were several communications read, some of which are of public interest and merit publication. Dr. Mathison, president of Greenwood Liberal Association, was present and on introduat^oji by President Campbell gave ashort speech 'full of that sound sense and optimism for which he is noted, 'lytr. N. Bangs, of Spokane, also gave the Association a pleasant-fell. He isSSothu- siastic regarding the founding of a permanent exhibit of Similkameen ores at Spokane, a matter which the Association is heartily in sympathy with but which- plossibly does not come within the purview of its constitution. Touching a communication from Chairman Smith of the Yale-Cariboo District Liberal Association asking for opinibrJW the Princeton A*5s|<|jation as^ to date of nominating corWerHion for' Dbjninion elections, it wasf^resolved : PTnaJ. the Princeton Liberaf^ssociation ig df unanimous opinion that the interests of the Liberal party of Yale-Cariboo will be best conserved by choosing a date of nominating convention at least five months ahead, say during the Easter va- catiodjof Parliament. That the names of prospective candidates be in the hands of the secretary at least one week before date of convention and that the same be published in the newspapers of the riding. That to secure absolute fairness and justice to all candidates at the convention a committee shall be appointed to see that no tampering is done with delegates after proceedings have begun and that only one vote or ballot be taken." The Association dealt with the problem of road communication in this dis trict and resolved : "That the Princeton Liberal Association begs to express their earnest appreciation of the successful efforts of hi W. Shatford, M. P. P., in improving the main highways in Princeton district. In furtherance of this progressive policy this Association takes tne liberty to respectfully suggest to him the necessity for early completrqgta wagon roadjto% Roche river and the construction of pfo- misek sidewalks in Princeton. The importance ofthe lumbering, as well as the mining industry, now demands that good roads be built along the rivers to assist in the development of the varied resources of this section." Resolution sent to Mr. Shatford. The Association also passed a resolution addressed to the., Hon.. Rodolphe Letn- ieux, Postmaster General, intimating the need, of a daily mail from Keremeos, tHS present terminus of the V., V. & E., to Princeton and pointing out the advantages to business men and the public generally in having prompt and quick communication with the Boundary and Spok ane by this route, where under the present P.O. service it takes two weeks to get a letter reply. A daily mail and stage will greatly encourage travellers to come to Princeton and now that railway con struction is under way its need is doubly apparent. A motion was passed advisingJSuper- intendent Stevens of the telephone line of the necessity for a wire connection with the V., V. & E. at Kereujeos. Afiej^the transaction of some private business the Association adjourned to meet a montlti hence for the election of officers. mmm^i ED&TINUM EXPERT PROMISED. I Realizing the advisability of having a thorough examination made of the platinum fields of the Tulameen district by the Dominion Geological Department, and the placing in the hands of the pub lie reliable data concerning this valuable metal and its existence in this field, the Princeton Liberal Association, ever elert in matters pertaining to and in the interests ofthe publipatpetitioned the Dominion Minister of Mines, Hon. Wm. Templeman, to have Mr. Chas. Camsell, Dominion geologist, examine and report on1 the platinum prospects in the Tulameen dfsmct, where platinum has been known to exist for some time. The Hon, Minister of Mines replies as follows: Victoria, B. C, Oct., 14, 1907. B. S. Kennedy, Esq., Sec'y. Princeton Liberal Association, Dear Sir,—I am in receipt of yours of September 23, conveying a resolution passed by the Princetou Liberal Association, recommending that a report be made by the Department of Mines on the platinum deposits of the Tulameen dis- trsct. I will be glad to refer your request to the officersyrf the department and I' riiay say that an effort will be^made to meet the wishes of the Association. - W. TEMPLEMAN.

COUNTY COURT. Judge Brown held County Court on Saty|rday morning and disposed of the cases on the slate by noon. The case of D. O. Day vs. C. O. French, for a settlement of several old standing accounts, occupied some time as it was a somewhat ofa tangle, and the judge straightened it out by finding for the plaintiff in the sum of $69.08. The other case, A. E. Howse Co., Ltd., ts. J. A. Bombard for debt, was disposed of by Bombard being ordered to pay $15 per month until the debt is wiped out. Fred. Richardson, representing Ames, Holden & Co., Vancouver, paid a business visit to town on Saturday last. Mr. and Mrs. Jas. McL. Muirhead; of Victoria, passed through town on Monday omtheir way to Keremeos, where Mrs. Muirhead goes to visit her mother, Mrs. Lowe.

LUCKY ESCAPE. . If Kit Summers hadn't been borjj under a lucky star he certainly would have met his death on Monday last, At noon of Monday Kit went into his stabl^Jio watei and feed a couple'Qf^steeds WjfdJas he was proceeding with a bucket .oj water to one of the stalls he slipped, and fell under the horse's feet. Tti^splashing of jva^er and the noise m'dde by the fall of the bucket frightened'the horse and he did as any horse Would do under similar circunistahcte—kicked, and it was noth- ingishi^tpdf miraculous that Kit was not kicked to dealth. As it was he received ,a badly bruised arm and a bump on the face. Kit's many friends are congratulating him on his lucky escape. AN IMFORTAET CASE. J. J.'O. Leary, of Baker City, Oregon, is a visitor to Princeton this week. ■ f '<■ Sam Lung, a Chinese resident of Princeton for some time back,' Wad taken out to Vernon yesterday morning to become an inmate of the asylum for the insane.

(Continued from page 1.) was one ofthe real pioneers of the Okanagan, Similkameen and Kootenay districts. He came to Osoyoos, B. C, in the service of the Imperial Government 'in i860. For many years he was the sole representative of the Government in these large districts, and many wert the hardships he endured travelling over an unbroken country in the discharge of his duties. Realizing the favorable conditions of the Okanagan district for cattle raising, T. C. Haynes, or rather Judge Haynes, as he was called and known by all, went into the stock raising business and for this purpose, from time to time, purchased immense tracts of land till in 1888, date of his untimely death on the Dewdney trail, he had 21,000 acres over which nearly 4,000 cattle and a large bunch of horses roamed at will. In July, 1888, Judge Haynes, while returning from Victoria, B. C., over the Hope trail, succumbed to an attack of appendicitis at Princeton, B. C. As there were no wagon roads in those days, Jack Neil suggested taking the body in a canoe down the Similkameen river to the old Custom Fort. This was done, but not without many difficuliies. From there to Osoyoos a wagon was used to convey the body to its last resting place^-ou the shores of a lake which he so dearly loved. Rev. J.

The historian of a hundred years from now will probably quite confidently tell his class that the most remarkable woman of the early part of the twentieth century was Tsu Hsi, dowager Empress and real ruler of China, and that the greatest event of the period iu world politics was her proclamation announc ing the changing ofthe fyrm of Government from a despotism toa constitutional monarchy. China has for a week or so had a responsible Cabinet. She is to have a Parliament as soon as the neces sary machinery can be orovided. Compulsory education has been provided for and local self-government is a part ofthe great plan of leformation. When Tsu Hsi, after abetting the Boxer movement, in the hope of expelling the white man from the empire, had to flee from Pekin and seek refuge in the far interior, she evidently made up her mind that the white man held iLe better cdrds She proposes now to maintain the integrity of China by bringing her people up to western standards of civilization, instead of exterminating the "foreign devils." The new way is distinctly an improvement on the old. Tsu Hsi is now almost seventy- four; and in her case wisdom has accompanied old age. Princeton Brewery... Beer, Beer, Glorious Beer. — Spokeshave.
