PRINCETON, B.C., WEDNESDAY, JUNE 19, 1907. $2 a Year, in Advance a PRINCETON LIBERAL Association Meet and Petition Dominion Member for a Change in Postoffice. The Princeton Liberal Association met Monday afternoon at 3 o'clock in . the Star block to consider the advisability of petitioning the member for Yale-Cariboo, Duncan Ross, to have the different Dominion Government offices in Princeton, such as postmaster, telephone agent and excise-man consolidated and placed in charge of an officer and situated independent of any mercautile business. President J. R. Campbell occupied the chair with the following members present: Arthur Reith, vice-president; B. S. Kennedy, secretary; J. M. Wright, Alex. Bell, H. L. Godsoe, L. C. Wynne. The president stated briefly the object of the meeting and asked the meeting to show by expi ession and vote whether the ad dress, which he would ask the secietary to read, should be forwarded to Mr. Ross or not. Mr. Campbell wished to contradict a rumor that had been circulated to the effect that he was in search of the postniastership. He was not now nor never had been looking for the situation. The address reads as follows: Duncan Ross, Esq., M. P. for Yale- Cariboo—The Princeton Liberal As sociation in meeting duly assembled this 17th day of June, 1907, recommends in regard to the postoffice of this town that it be not associated or kept in connection with any mercantile business; That the three Dominion Government positions of postmaster, excise-man, and telephone agent, for the present at least, be amalgamated and managed by one man; That the member, Mr. Ross, be respectively urged to point out to the Government the necessity for a Dominion Government building in Princeton, adapted to its uses; That owing to the refusal of the present postmaster, before the executive committee of the Princeton Board of Trade, to take charge of the telephone in addition to the other two offices, we urge that Mr. L. C. Wynne be appointed as postmaster as soon as possible. Mr. Wright here suggested that the Government be asked to make Princeton a customs port and include it in the address, which was adopted. Mr. Bell, postmaster, stated that he had not refused to take the telephone, notwithstanding several present had understood him to say so, and after some discussion it was decided not to press the point. He further stated that he had conducted the postoffice to the best of his ability and had endeavored to serve the public faithfully. It was decided by the meeting that there were good grounds for a change of postmaster and that the office should be removed and placed entirely separate from any mercantile business. In the interests of the public it was decided to have the new office so arranged that box holders should have access to the same up to a reasonable hour after the general office had closed. Mr. L. C. Wynne's application for the position of postmaster, etc., was re.id and on motion favorably received. There being no other business to transact the meeting adjourned. The above is necessarily a brief report of what took place at the meeting but is quite sufficient to let the public see that the Princeton Liberal Association is alive to the interests of the general public and that they do not hesitate to act in these interests in an open and above board manner. Mr. Bell has no doubt fulfilled the duties of postmaster to the best of his ability, but in the public interests a change is advisable especially in the location, where it will be possible lo have access to private boxes after general hours and in separating it from any store or store owner ; also in making one man responsible for the satisfactory conduct of the Dominion government offices and positions in Princeton, and if he fails to give efficient and proper service another will. The idea of having a customs port established here is a good one and i: will not be the fault of the Liberals of Princeton if it is not secured. ON TO KEREMEOS. E. F. Voigt returned on Monday from Portland after an absence of several weeks on business. Mr. Voigt reports having met with unpleasant weather most of the time and was glad to get back to the banana belt. Returning by way of Spokane and Oroville he was able to see what was being done along the line of the V.,V. & E. The damage to the Armstrong bridge caused by the recent high water has been repaired and rail laying to Keremeos was expected to commence on Tuesday and from present indications trains will be running to that point by August. What will happen after that no one seems to know. A meeting of Princeton Liberal association will be held tomorrow even ing at 8. A. Murchie, photographer, has his new studio on Bridge street complete and is now ready to attend to all orders in his line. Mr. Johnson arrived from Nelson on Monday to take charge of the brewery here. Mr. Faulds, general manager of the Nicola Coal and Coke Co , was a passenger on the Nicola stage to-day. Pay your provincial taxes now and save" the rebate. Public worship will be held in the court house Sunday night at 7:30. JULY 1 CELEBRATION Committees Appointed and Prospects Bright for Excellent Sport. The Dominion Day celebration committee met last night in the Princeton pool parlors to further complete arrangements for the sports on that day. Subcommittees were appointed with the following as chairmen: Baseball and Caledonian sports, J. R. Campbell; horse racing. Kit Summers; rocn drilling, Jim C-itiipbell; decoration, J. Swansborough; dance, Geo. Wardle. A. E.Jackson was made treasurer and Bill Martin was selected as marshal for the day. J. Macdonell was chosen captain of the baseball club for 1907. The decision to add a drilling contest to the programme is a good one and the handsome purse of $ 125 that has been hung up should attract a lrrge number of competitors. Everything points to a most successful day of sport and the energetic committees appointed will leave no stone unturned to make it a red letter day in Princeton. PRESBYTERIAN MISSIONS. The meeting addressed by Dr. Herd- man, Presbyterian superintendent of missions, Monday night, was interested in his remarks, having reference mainly to the upbuilding and maintenance of. the church here. He sought the co-operation of christians generally in maintaining a healthy moral atmosphere in the community by attending to their religious duties and commended the Sunday school to their attention and support as a means of awakening in children a desire to learn of and sCrve their Creator. At the meeting of the board of managers it was de. cided that a report would issue Irom them in a few weeks regarding this field and its missionary supply. It was also decided to have public worship eveiy Sunday alternating morning or afternoon with evening. Work has been commenced from Penticton stringing the telephone wire on new poles and when the work has been completed to Nicola a great improvement in the service may be looked for. The work of erecting new poles has been under the watchful eye of D. A. Carmichael who has proved himself a most efficient officer. Thos. McFarlane, F.R.S.C, Dominion analyst, and one of Canada's foremost scientists, dropped dead at Ottawa last week. Conservatives are active all over the Dominion preparing for battle; even Princeton is said to be aspiring for an association to be of some public use on the lines of the local Liberal association. LOCAL AND GENERAL. Mr. James Reith returned home to Keremeos yesterday after a lengthy visit to his brother at Five-Mile. Anyone not receiving the Star promptly will please reporbto this office. W. J. Henderson, the well known ho- telman of Tulameen City, passed through Princeton last Saturday on his way home from a visit to Boundary points. C JE. Shaw. Government land surveyor, came in from Greenwood On Friday o 1 business. Major A. Megraw, editor of the Hedley Gazette, was a visitor to Princeton on Friday last, having come up to attend a sitting of the Licensing Board, which was held on Saturday. W. S. Wilson has. completed the work of grading and otherwise improying his property at the foot of Bilhter avenue preparatory to erecting a couple of handsome dwellings. Joseph Rauch severed his connection with the Princeton branch of the Nelson Brewing Co., and accompanied by his wife left for the coast on Saturday. Patronize advertisers, as a rule they are the most progressive and enterprising and what they have for sale is the freshest and best to be procured. Miss Ethel Thynne, who is now in a Vancouver hospital, having undergone an operation for appendicitis, is hastening toward, what everybody hopes, a full recovery. The case of Miss Thynne has been a pefplexTn'g one for the doctors who disagreed as to the nature of it, but it now appears on the evidences of surgery recently supplied that Dr. Schon was correct in his diagnosis of it. Chas. Swedenmark has his sawmill in operation at Tulameen and made his first cut on Monday. Princeton Lodge I.O.O.F. No. 52 is gaining in membership rapidly. A party of immigrants from Idaho, U. S., passed through Princeton last week on their way to the Oosta lake country in northern B.C. They had a large cavalcade of rigs, horses and camp outfit for the long journey ahead which will take about three weeks to complete. Trout are plentiful in the rivers and streams and everybody with tackle is practising the art that made Izaak, the Walton, famous. A good crop of fishing yarns is springing up, which, by the end of the season will, no doubt, include some "whoppers." Some parties are planning an excursion to a lake on the headwaters of the Skagit where the fish were so plentiful last year that the water rose 6 feet on the arrival at night of one school. Be that as it may there is good sport in all the streams now. Royal A. Hunt, of Enderby, was a t>as- senger on Monday's stage to Princeton. He is here in the interests of the Rogers Lumber Co. of Enderby. THE SIMILKAMEEN STAR The Similkameen Star -B.

The great desire to be permitted to roam the earth to an advanced age is common to the great majority of men and women, and it is undoubtedly right that they should cherish such a desire. Ever since the time of the flood and probably before, all kinds of ideas have been advanced tending to the keeping alive of ' the vital spark in the human frame and the world has been furnished with many examples of ripe old ages. Tbe question naturally arises what is essential to longevity? Alphonse Daudet, in one ol his stories, has a character, a very old man, who is famous because be happens to be the oldest member of the French Academy. He is deluged with letters asking him as to his habits, his diet, his hours of sleep and the like. Hundreds of people imagine that if they live as he lived they would attain his longevity. At first the letters annoy the old gentleman, but in the end they furnish him with inexhaustible amusement. To every correspondent he gives a different reply. In one letter he describes himself as a lifelong vegetarian; in another he professes to have eaten, for years, nothing but meat; to a third correspondent he gravely declares that for fiftv years he has lived on a diet of raw carrots and milk. The Toronto World, referring to this vexed question of what to eat and what no to, says: Some people believe that to live long you mnst eat rye, oat or graham bread, anything but white. Others say it is not what you eat, but how you eat it. They cite Mr. Gladstone as counting the number of chews he gave every mouthful of food before he swallowed it. But now comes Dr. Wiley, the chief of pure food experts of the United States, who declares it to be a disgrace for anyone to die except for old age, and he recommends us to bolt our food. "All flesh-eating animals do so," he says. In the matter of eating, drinking, sleeping, bathing and exercise we find no end of schools and prescriptions. If anything is wrong with you, nature will signal by inflicting pain. Your stomach knows what is good for you. It is the best counsellor. Meanwhile a cheerful disposition will predigest It would be safe to say, says the Phoenix Pioneer, that there is steady employment to-day for from 400 to 500 more men in the mines and smelters of the Boundary at the best of wages paid in any part of Canada or the west for similar work.

Stirring speeches were delivered, in most of which full justice was done the Great Britain "over the seas," and the doings of the Colonial Conference brought into prominence. Empire Day is of Canadian birth and it is gratifying to see that its usefulness is already so generally recog: nized. Corner Granville and Pender Sts x. , — — — w»» j Vancouver, B. C. Mr. James Woods, president of the Ottawa Board of Trade, in his inaugural address to the Board, the other day, says that the complaints that British investors do not appreciate Canadian enterprises are totally unfounded. England holds Dominion Provincial Government and municipal bonds and securities to the value of $350,000,000 and over $700,000,000 in securities, of railways, banks, and other undertakings, besides millions invested in private enterprises and in mortgages. In order to do Cauada justice and to place the true facts before English capitalists, Mr. Woods suggests that tbe Government should establish, in connection with the High Commissioner's office in London, an information bureau where prospective investors might secure authentic information regarding Canadian enterprises. This would tend to prevent the flotation ot wild-cat schemes which injured the country. Notice is hereby given that sixty days after date I intend to apply to the Hon. Chief Commissioner of Lands and Works to purchase 80 acres of pasture land, situate in the Nicola division of Yale district and described as follows: Commencing atthe S.

Address .me, Dr. Shoop, Racine, Wis. Troubles of the stomach, heart or kidneys, are merely symptoms of a deeper ailment. Dont make the common error of treating symptoms only. Symptom treatment is treating the result of your ailment and not the cause. Weak stomach nerves—the inside nerves—means stomach weakness, always. And the heart and kidneys as well, have their controlling or inside nerves. Weaken these nerves and you inevitably have weak vital organs. Here is where Dr. Shoop's Restorative has made its fame. No other remedy ever claims to treat the "inside nerves." Also for bloating, biliousness, bad breath or complexion, use Dr. Shoop's Restorative. Write for my free book now.

Hurrah for Keremeos. When in Vernon stay at the Coldstream Hotel, opposite railway station. First class service, rates moderate. Stomach trouble is but a symptom of. and not In itself a true disease. We think of Dyspepsia, Heartburn, and Indigestion as real diseases, yet they are symptoms only of a certain specific Nerve sickness—nothing else. It was this fact that first correctly led Dr. Shoop In the creation of that now very popular Stomach Remedy—Dr. Shoop's Restorative. ■ Going direct to the stomach nerves, alone brought that success and favor to Dr. Shoop and his Restorative.
