Editor Star—Sir: Under the headH ing: "Important Mining Deal," thje Hedley Gazette of June 13th states that the Windfall' group of claims is situated to the south qf_and adjoining the Sunny- side and that if the ore shute of the Sun- nyside extends southward at all, beyond the workings of the Nickle Plate, Sun- nyside and Bulldog, the Windfall group is bound to have it, 'Knowing that it was njot so and thinking that the editor had njiade a mistake or was misinformed I mailed him a post card calling Ijis attention to the fact that tfle Windfall group is north and west of the Nickle Plate group and as the Nickle Plate con sists of some 16 claims and the Sunny- side and Bulldog are the most southerly claims of the group. Therefore, the Sun- nyside ore shute would have fo extend north and westerly and for a. long distance in order to be into the Windfall group, and as the said ore shute has a south westerly strike it is not lto be considered as probable that it would alter its courjse ..to the'nor'th-'We'stf.;, Birt^. as-the Gazette' editor has so far failed"t»;retract his misleading statements and givei^'s subscribers the facts as they are, we must conclude thatjie, jntended therw'fo be so stated.

LOCAL AND GENERAL Hot Weather Now Causes all 'Nature to Don Its ., Lightest Garb.'.' A FALSE RUMOR. Editor Star—Sir: I understand that a rumor is being circulate&itf^own to the effect that I am in favor df cheap labor, and that at the time of the recent strike of the road men on the repair work on the Hedley road I took the side of the road boss. I would be much obliged if you would allow me this opportunity of denying this rumor. Having been for several years a wage earner in the mines in Montana myself I am, and always have been, ofthe opinion that the laboring man is entitled to all he can earn. Yours truly, L. C. WYFNE.

When a matter concerning the general interests of this province is in tbe foreground of discussion by the press it is a pleasure to note the impartial attitude taken by the higher minded writers of the two great political parties. The question of our provincial rights has been bandied about by the political muck-raker for the purposes of party advantage, but we, whose vision is not shut in by Grit or Tory horizon, take the broad and patriotic view that " better terms " from the Dominion admits of no partyism and must be contended for as an absolute and independent right and not as a political favor. A strong public sentiment must be at the back of our parliamentary representatives to enforce the claims of this province ; united British Columbia is equivalent to victory, divided, defeat and loss. Premier McBride has shown that he Is a loyal son of the province in tbe struggle to obtain a modification of the provincial birthright at the hands of his brother premiers in conference. It was a duty ar.d a privilege for Premier McBride to put up a strenuous fight, for which every credit is given him. Some fun has been poked at the premier for his pilgrimage to the " foot of the throne, "which he never reached, having stopped at the Colonial office on Downing street, but all will al- iow that his cause and intentions were good however tactless his methods were. All the business in connection with tbe matter cculd have been transacted from the offi*. e of the agent-general for B.C. in London and the province saved an expensive trip of some thousands of dollars for the premier. The honorable gentleman has served his country faithfully and the Star wishes him every success in obtaining provincial rights. Tbe News- Advertiser has some fair-minded comment in this connection which is worth reproducing, as follows : "There is one other matter in relation to this subject that seems to require some reference. If tbe Provincial interests are to be served in the most effective way, the question must be dealt with as one entirely outside of party politics. It was so regarded in the Provincial Legislature, in the inter-provincial conference and in the Dominion parliament. To be consistent holding that view, Conservatives must refrain from charging that Sir Wilfrid Laurier has been the cause of the Province's failure to obtain $3.001 what it sought. If anyone can be held responsible it must be the in ter-provincial conference, which decided what the extra sum granted to British Columbia should amount to. It is not difficult to understand why the various Provincial Pre miers were not willing to give more liberal recognition of our claims. They had to consider what would be the attitude of their respective legislatures and electorates on the subject. If the matter was referred to them at all, we do not see how Sir Wilfrid Laurier could refuse to abide by their decision. From what passed in the Dominion parliament we must assume that Mr. Borden would have acted as Sir Wilfrid had done, had he bsen in power. It cannot be wise, therefore, if we hope to succeed ultimately in our claim, to attack Sir June 26, 1907 J. DANAHER & CO. ■ ■ *~mtF^.

Weak Kidneys, surelr rtnint. «« «™-.*> Weak Kidneys, surely point to weak kidney Nerres. The Kidneys, like the.Heart, and the Stomach, find their weakness, not in the organ Itself, but in tbe nerves that control and guide and strengthen them. Dr. Shoop's Restorative is a medicine specifically prepared to reach these controlling nerves. To doctor the Kidneys alone, is futile. It is a waste of time, and of money as well. If your back aches or is weak _ . »»v,a uunes or is weak. If tbe urine Scalds, or is dark and strong, if you have symptoms of Brights or other distressing or dangerous kid- ._•.«. uu ney disease, try Dr. Shoop's Restorative a month— Tablets or Liquid—and see what it can and will Wilfrid Lanner and throw the mat- doforyou. Druggist recommend and sell ter into the arena of party politics. Nor, although we are opposed to h m, do we think such a course is fair to Sir Wilfrid Laurier." Contrast the unbiassed sentences above with the purely partizan utterances ot that politically degenerate newspaper, the Province, which are as follows : "The whole progress of this dispute has unmistakably established one fact—tbe resolution of Sir Wilfrid Laurier to refuse justice to British Columbia. That has been most plain throughout. Whether he will continue fixed in tbe determination which so far has animated him remains to be seen." Let tne mail you free, to prove merit, samples of my Dr. Shoop's Restorative, and my book on either dyspepsia, the heart, or the kidneys. 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 iuside 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.

Besides all that and the notary bizness he had an inkum from four houses and three ranches in Tobah, as stated by 'sponsible party. Well, the druggists and other merchants of Billabaloo and the citizuns generally, miners, prospec- turs, farmer chaps, the Reform organiza- shun to a man, for many reasons, decided to have the p.o separate from asthoie and give it to a needy, courteous deserving mau. You orter seen that posht- master kick and squeal when he was notified of a change and how the bristles stood out on him. It lookt as if he wantid all the jobs goin and koral all the bizniss to. He seemed to forget that the farmer who grows iggs and chickens, the baker who bakes, the druggist who sells sodium fosforibusticate and other poor peple want to mak livin to. There was a great hullabaloo over the change and one or two of the 'shining lights' in the tory ranks had to poke their noses into the grit squabble which made the Reform association all the more determined to have a raydicul change.
