Only one Princeton, center of great mineral resources.
Deeds, not Words, are what a person is measured by.
With a number of large enterprises under way, others well within the realms of certainty ; with land values appreciating, railroads building
and development all around, what fairer prospect could be desired .—Vast mineral wealth quite untouched-—Homes for the million—Reciprocity.

James E. McCauley, who makes bis
home at the Ridpath hotel, and who has
Been operating in the Princeton, B. C,
country since he left the Coeur d'Alenes
several years ago, has incorpoTSlerl the
Hercules Consolidated __ining&. Smelt
ing company, to acquire and develope
three groupes of claimson Copper moun
tain, near Princeton, B. C The company
is capitalized at $1,500,000 and its first
bpard directors is composed as follows:
President, Mayor __T_i.w FratFj^vice-presi-
dent, Peter Hoqgenboezem; directors,
James E. McCauley, Andrew Anderson
and Robert L. Shepherd The latter is
from Chicago, all the rest being residents
of Spokane ; R. H. Hughes is secretary.
The company's pioperty consists of
three groups, the gsej^_J_J___c_4ae—a_d
Buffalo groups. The Reco has already
had $23,700 expended on it; and the
Trachyte and Buffalo have had 80 and 60
feet of tunnelling, respectively, done.
A big fissure vein on the Reco assays
$60 per ton in the paystreak and the location vein has average assays of $16 in
gold and copper. The Trachyte and
Buffalo are equally good.
J. E. McCauley is well known in these
parts and everybody will beipleased to
know that he has a stronagoinpany to
operate the above valuable properties.
He has shown great confidence in the
proposition and an admirable, courage in
overcoming almost insuperable difficulties. This conntry is in need of men
who do things. Mr. McCauley bustles
and works, these qualities usually bringing the success which now is his.
be of excellent fuel and coking qualities.
A postoffice, telephone and daily mail,
besides railway connection whenever the
V.V., & E. lays steel on the finished
grade are among the requisites of the new
town, Coaltnont, which now takes the
place of the temporary name, 'Cardiff.'
It is situated about half way between
Welldoaud Tulameen.
The Columbia Coal & _ok_ Co. will
erect fifty cottages on its townsite for the
accommodation of its woikingmen. In
the tunnel now being run to tap the coal
good progress is made with three shifts
daily. l/
'Having a sawmill and a large quantity
of stoy____j_g-_"_iber on their property the
Columbia Coal & Coke Co. will be in
position to supply their own require
ments for building purposes.
The construction of a bridge over the
Tulameen river will be begun soon and
when completed w'll be of great benefit
to the travelling public.
RECIPROCITY.
'COALMONT' NEWS.
New Name, New Town: Is on the
Ma£ to Stay—Great Coal CentW
;</'G8_lmont' is the significant and eunbo-
_/>nious name   selected  by the Columbia
^xCoal  &   Coke Co.  for the  townsite on
.// which will  be   reared  a large and pros
.perous cozl   mining/ town..    When  the
production of coal  and coke is begun a
large number of men  will be employed
and the company Js^wise to the fact that
homeseeking miners will go where ihev
have  opportunity   to  make  one.    Coal-
mont takes  its name from the mountain
in which  the large 7x11  tunnel is now
'driving to the   measure of bituminous
coal.   Analyses have shown this coal to
General Good will Result now ; Universal Free Trade and Peace.
It is the misfortune of all reform that
its promoters should be misrepresented
and often abused for attempting to better
conditions. Friends of reciprocity have
the general good of the people, the consumers, in view, while its enemies look
only to their selfish interests and large
profits It is a law of economics that
diffusion, not focussing, of wealth, makes
a people prosperous, contented and progressive. The fathers of free trade and
reciprocity have endured persecution and
wrong at the hands of the friends of
monopoly. The big trusti, Itgetcorpor-
ationsj copn~f combines,! Stan_ard oil,
and food trustschokeioff <!o_ipeti^fon end
denounce any n_pyepW_t tending to the
general goofl. A*y action taken by the
Princeton b<Sard?of trade regarding reciprocity should not be confined to merely
consideration of local interests, although
in coal and zinc there is much to warrant
support of the proposed reduction in
tariff, it should be weighed in the balance
of national welfare and benefit. The
wider market and the wholesome effect
of competition tend to correct the abuses
springing from a narrow market and little or no competition. In the past this
town has had to submit ~to the culls of
produce from shippers in the district who
preferred to send better qualities farther
away. Competition does and will rectify
this .evil and the great mass of the people
the consumers, benefit thereby. Star, in
its own optimistic way, as opposed to the
pessimists and Little Canucks, welcomes
reciprocity as the thin edge of free trade
among all Anglo-Saxon countries and
ultimately throughout the world. It presages friendship and peace where now
are huge, impoverishing-armaments and
rumblings of war. Come reciprocity,
come free trade 1

BIG   DEVELOPMENT.
"The country of which Princeton, B.
C, is at the commercial centre is going
to have a wouderful development during
the next year or two," said C. O. French,
of Princeton, to a reporter of the Review
at the Hotel Spokane, recently. "Interest
at present centers chiefly in the development of the coal fields surrounding and
underlying the town, .the mining camps
of Copper and Kennedy mountains, on
the Similkameen river to the south, aud
Steamboat mountain,.-on the Muddy, a
tributary of Skagit, to the west."
PRINCETON HOSPITAL.
Open for Patiente—Box Social Great
Success, Nets over $150.
The box social last Friday night was
the sucoess it was intended to be by the
Ladies' Auxiliary. As president of the
organization Mrs. W._j^_M<_Bougall was
a moving inspiration among the people
and she was loyally supported by all the
members. It is now evident that without
the cooperation of the ladies there would
be serious difficulty in getting^the hospital furnished and in receptive condition
for patients. The attei___nce of gentlemen was /flotteS largtf as was to be expected b_r__ose/My^p__: were in generous mood, somye BiMj_rg to the extent of
ten, fifteen and twenty u6TTar§_jbr boxe_
swelling i_elr""airea_y"_iber_l contributions to bountiful proportions. Tbe
Ladies will net oyer $150 as the result of
the social. The—augtioneer, H. Hunter,
again proved his ability to extract the
'needful,' his services being appreciated
by all. Nurse Thomas and/ Orderly
Crisfield have been busy putting things
in shape for the receptidjj/of patients
and the institution is now open to public patronage. The hospital board will
shortly make a statement to the public
showing receipts and expenditures to
date.
