Take in the excursion Monday. Prospector Nickolson leaves soon (or the White Gro.use mountains where there are large deposits of copper, Geo. Pettit of Victoria has opened a store on Front street. He carries a line of Gents' Furnishing goods, blankets,.etc. Attorney-General Ebert and wife and Gold Commissioner Fitzstubbs stopped a short time in Kaslo and departed for Three Forks. Northport, having attracted the attention of Eber C. Smith, the versatile expounder of the Rossland Record, will have another newspaper. That splendid old play, Rip Van Winkle, gives Si Robinson an opportunity for some good acting- acting that would be creditable to a more pretentious stage. Contractor McDonnell has been .rushing- the work on his division, .which includes the first three miles, and will soon have it in .shape to turn over to the head contractors. Temple Seeley, 35 years a prospector, has returned from Trail creek, where he made some good locations. He staked one claim joining the famous Le Roi, from "which he and his partners expect to realize $15,000. i. t When Mrs. Ira Black returned ��o Three Forks from Spokane the .other day she brought a parrot with her. It speaks English fluently and is making good progress in the study of the Scandinavian .and Italian languages. Sandon has grown some during -the past few weeks, but its growth is retarded by the action of the C. P. R. Co., which runs its survey along the side of the principal .street, taking the street and half the lots, requiring several buildings to be moved off, with no place but the bed of the creek to move -,to. George Henderson, the New Denver hotel, man, is now located in Kaslo. His partner was recently married, and it is doubtful .whether George can much longer escape the fair sex; especially as he is a favorite among them and his tastes run to flowers, paintings and everything that is ajBthetic and beautiful. The pic-nic last Monday, under the auspices of the Masonic fraternity ,was a great success. All who attended speak in the highest terms of the delights of the day, .and from their enthusiastic descriptions of Proctor's garden and strawberry patch, at Balfour, we .conclude that it must be the Eden .of the province. Pabst Bohemia special brew logger beer at the Adams hotel only. * C. E. Perry has done some remarkably good engineering on the Kaslo & Slocan railway. From Bear lake to Sandon he secured a level grade for eight miles around the mountain side. It is believed that there is not in Canada another instance of a level road for that distance running on two sides of a mountain, and at so great an elevation above the mountain itreams. Divine service. Rev. C. A, Procunier, A. M., will preach at 11 a. m. and 7:00 p.m. in Jackson hall (near P.O.) next Sunday. The city government has selected three lots (lots 38, 39 and 40 blk. 9) on A avenue nearly opposite the Hotel Slocan as a site for the municipal buildings. The Miner speaks of a place as "unmentionable." If there is such a place it is unknown in the mining camps of West Kootenay whore all known localities are mentioned with a freedom that often bespeaks a close acquaintance. Robertson Presbyterian church: Sunday services at 11 a. m. and 7'30 p. m. Topic for the evening: "National Address' in Honour of Dominion Day." Sunday School and Mr. G. O. Buchanan's bible class at 2'30 p. m. All are cordially invited. The Miner has made remarks that hava "given offence in high places." It is all right, Sir St. Barbe, to slash around in the swamps and on the level common but look out for the "high places." There might something tumble from those samethigh places that would smash your castles into smithereens. Kaslo has a band of which she is and may well be proud. Our boys have all "been there before," which is in part the secret of. their success. Several new kiBtruments are needed to complete their equipment and the assistance of the citizens is needed in obtaining them. For this purpose $27 was colected in twenty minutes one day this week by Archie Fletcher, which shows that an interest is taken in the matter. Instruments purchased with money contributed by the citizens will be the property of the City. The council has appropriated $50 for a band stand and given permission for its erec- on 4th st. just below the crossing of Front street. Adams & Cummings have the first carload of Pabst Milwaukee Draught beer ever shipped to Kootenay. Try it and be invigorated. Our drinks must be as good as Milwaukee's. * 1IKHJB AND THERE. A war-cloud hovers between Russia and Japan. W..C. Archer, whilom of New Denver, has plunged into the swim at Rossland. Cleveland has whipped his party into line at Louisville, the head- qiinrters of the southern states. The Bunker Hill <fc Sullivan mine has resumed work with 150 men under the direction of Manager Bradley, Manitoba is in a position similar to that of South Carolina in I860, with the difference that Manitoba is right and South Carolina was wrong. There are a few fools left. One of them named Paul Webb proposes to go over the falls at Spokane in a barrel or sub-marine boat of his own contrivance. At the June assizes holden in Nelson, James Westgate was found guilty of manslaughter, but as the offense was committed under great provocation, and in the nature of self defense, he received the light sentence of 11 months in prison. toril iSallsbuvy, Premier. The Roseb&y government has passed into history. Lord Salisbury, leader of the Conservatives, has byen called upon to form a new ministry; Assay omev. W. J. Trethlwey, a minerallogist .and aisay.er pi large experience, has opened an'assay office in the Alberta building. Successful prospectors are the best patrons of an assay office. ��� Bulls aro Coming, The fii'it consignment of rails for the Kaslo ,' & Slocan railway will arrivetat Bonner's Ferry next week.

That is .about 300 more than were; employed.-at any time on construction Work of the Nakusp & Slocan railway. CmUii't Do Without It. Pripcipajly through the efforts of Mrs. Norquay, and a few other willing workers, including .Rev. Gaebel, Three Forks has a church. ty js erect 0.4, on the. terrace. back of the principal street, and.will also be used for school and concert purposes. It.is a good building and a credit to tho town. High Oracle Ore. Matt. Guthrie brought down to Three Folks; some specimens of high grade ore from the Antelope, that attracted a great deal of attention. The ore would run between three thousand and four thousand ounces of silver to the ton. The Antelope is one of the Dardanelles group. Sudden Death. Mrs. Matlow, who formerly kept a hotel at Bear Lake, and afterwards resided at Three Forks, died suddenly, and under suspicious circumstances, at Revelstoke last week. An inquest was held, of which we have not heard the result, but a rumor is current that someone will have to answer to a charge of poisoning. Not Much to Pay, Representatives of the railway company say they were very much disappointed over the failure of the exemption by-Jaw to receive the assent oi a majority of the voters of the municipality. They have always regarded the agreement entered into at the time of signing the petition for incorporation as binding and one that they could rely on. Dominion Duy at Nelson. The people of Nelson have made elaborate arrangements for the celebration of Dominion Day and extend a cordial invitation to the people of the neighboring towns and mining camps to meet with them. Kaslo people should go in goodly numbers. Three steamboats leave here on the morning of that day'affording opportunity for all to go. JULY 1st.���DOMINION DAY. Excursion to Nelson. The Steamer ALBERTA will leave Kaslo for Nelson on Monday July 1st at 7 o'clock a.m., on Tuesday July 2nd at 8 o'clock, returning will leave Nelson at 6 o'clock both days. The Kaslo Band has been secured for Monday's trip. Tickets for the round trip, $1.50. Good to return until Wednesday. The North Fork Trail. ( . At an expense' of less- than five hundirecl dollars -a trail worth at least a thousand dollars lias lieen made for o^ miles up the North Fork of Carpenter creek. The men employed were nearly all interested in mineral claims in close proximity to the trail and were interested in accomplishing a great deal with the small appropriation. T. M. Gibson had charge of the work which was done in a first- class manner. Accidents. Where so many men are employed, accidents are' to be expected. An' Italian was struck Sunday by a falling tree. He sustained injuries which may result in his death. Another man, named Clark, was brought to town yesterday with a broken leg. He was taken to the Adams hotel, and after haying the injured member placed in plaster-paris will go to his home in Washington. Smelter. In Sight. Three more smelters for West Kootenay may now be regarded as "in sight." One at Nelson, to be erected by the Hall mining company for the smelting of the Silver King ore; one on a new site, near Bannock point, at the head of Arrow lake, to be erected by the Kansas City Smelting Co. under the patronage of the C.P.R.; and one at Trail creek by a Montana company lor the Bmelting of Trail creek ores. Worthy of Its Stool. It is just dawning upon the mind of the drowsy old C.P.R. that there is a competitor in the field. The way in which the Kaslo & Slocan railway runs around Sandon and shuts the former company off from the Slocan Star is an eye-opener to it and teaches it that there are engineers in the field that know more about railroading than all the C.P.R. engineers that ever passed over the Nakusp & Slocan railway put together. The Outlook in the Slocau. The prospect in the Slocan was never better than at present. Competitive railroads will offer better facilities, and probably better rates, for shipping than have before existed there. It is learned that it is the intention of the Duluth-Detroit syndicate to employ about 200 men in mining on the Alamo and contiguous properties. This information is not official, but is substantially correct. ��� It is expected that the Slocan Star force will be increased to 100 men, and about 200 will be employed in the other mines of tlie district, making in all 500, or double the number employed last winter. Several mine owners are making arrangements to start work next month and by the middle of August tilings will be humming in the Slocan. MOIili AllOUT THK KXEJ1PTION AOKIS15M1SNT. Editor Phospkctoh, Sir���In your article unon the defeat of the tax exemption by-law you say that the condition upon which a public meeting in the "mists of the past'' voted in favor of exemption was a point in dispute. There need not be any dispute. The condition was that the Kaslo and Kootenay Land Co. should sign the petition to the Lieut.-Gov ernor in Council asking for the incorporation of Kaslo as a city. As one of the committee appointed by the people of Kaslo to prepare and present said petition, the duty of asking the Land Company for its signature was assigned to me. When in Victoria in February, 1803, I interviewed the officers of the company upon the subject. They'made the exemption of the railway property from taxation the condition of giving their assent. The committee reported this fact plainly and emphatically to a public meeting of the people of Kaslo, before they accepted the signature or presented the petition. Had there been objection then made, the committee would have so notified the Land Company and they would have withheld their signa? ture, and Kuslo would have re mained unincorporated as it was impossible for the committee to get two thirds in value of the property affected represented upon their petition otherwise. The exact nature of the exemption stipulated for, is a matter for consideration; and I interpret the vote taken the other day to mean that the people thought that the by-law put before them asked for too much. I am sure that, when a proper understanding of the matter has been reached, the people of Kaslo will reconsider their decision. Yours Truly, G. O. Buciianan. Try a glass of Milwaukee beer.

Corbin first, and to the pther enterprising citizens of Spokane, is due the development of the Trail creek mines. Without the S. F. & N. R'y, the Trail creek camp would have remained unheard of, save by a few hardy prospectors. If it had been a hundred miles from the boundary, or right un the main line of the C.P.R., it would have remained as dead as lllicilleweat. It was fortifnate in ,its location. Wc do not agree with the oft- repeated statement that silver is the money of the poor man and gold the money of the rich man. When coined at a ratio that will keep both metals in circulation��� and without their being coined at such a ratio we cannot have bimetallism���gold will be as much the money of poor men as of rich men, and the rich men will be just as anxious to secure silver as gold. Owing to its greater bulk the smaller denominations will be coined in silver, while the larger will be in gold; but even the poor man sometimes has two-and-a-half, live or ten dollars worth of something to sell and is entitled to a piece of the yellow, metal. The rich man also needs a handful oi "chicken feed" for change. The habit of calling silver the poor man's money serves no good pur- p ise, and besides setting up an unnecessary caste, is liable to lead to a confusion of ideas on the finance question, Let us have all the money for all the peopV^^. CXOUSTON PKA1SES CLUVKLASB. No doubt the thousands of business men in the United States who Jiave been ruined by Cleveland'* financial policy will feel compensated for all their losses when they learn that the president's course is approved by the general manager .of the Bank of Montreal. At the 77th annual meeting of ���the share-holders of the bank, held at Montreal June 3rd, General Manager E. S. Clouston said: "Had it not been for the firm stand taken by Mr. Cleveland, aided by a syndicate of bankers and financiers who are carrying through with apparent success one of the most difficult and delicate financial operations of the century, the United States would today have been iu the throes of a panic to which that of 1893 would have, been child's play. In times of business depression as in epidemics there always comee to the surface a crop of cranks and quacks armed with special nostrums or theories to cure everything, and the ignorant driven to desperation are very apt to seize on the most plausible, only to find out later how deeply .they have been deceived. Of such is THE SILVER HERESY ���.if free coinage at present rampant in the United States, prompted by interested silver mine owners, fostered by theorists and demagogues and accepted by a large number of unthinking farmers, laborers, etc., who are feeling the pinch of low prices. I am glad to see that active and organized efforts are being made at last to stem the rising tide, and I have no doubt they will be entirely successful. These efforts are forcibly assisted by the continued increase in gpld production, and the steady rise in staples without a corresponding rise in silver, refuting some of the chief theories and statements of the silver men. I saw it stated the other day that a French writer, referring to the tendency of Americans to wards the adoption of irrational and exploded financial theories, said that God is good to his little children, drunken men, and the people of the United States, or they would have gone to eternal smash long ere this. The silver question is one that we, as large lenders in the United States, watch very closely, and though we could probably do business there as profitably on a silver basis as a gold one we would like to see the present uncertainty removed. C. P. R. vs. THE PEOPLE, Anent the report that the Canadian Pacific has withdrawn its objections to the British Columbia Southern building a railroad through the Crow's Nest pass and that consequently the road will be built, the Edmonton Bulletin exclaims, inquiringly: Who owns this country? It adds these remarks: This is one of the occasions in which circumstances alter cases. When the British Columbia Southern was first projected some years ago to run from Burrard Inlet through the Kootenay mining country to the Crow's Nest pass, the railway from Dunmore to Lethbridge was still in the handB of the Gait Company, and that company was applying for a charter to extend its line to meet the British Columbia Southern in the same pass. This would have given direct connection between the' coal deposits in the pass and the silver and gold ores of Kootenay, and besides would have given Southern Alberta and British Columbia an independent line of railway to the Pacific and connected with the States, competing with the Canada Pacific. That was when the C.P.R. made its objections; and although the proposed roads would, in one stride, have put Canada in the front as a silver producing country, the objections of the C.P.R. were supported in parliament by the ministry and the line was not allowed to proceed. The Gait Company and the British Columbia Southern were not asking for any special favors either as to land grants, cash bonus or special privileges. All that they asked was the liberty .of applying British capital in the development of an important part of this country, and the priviledge was denied. This is one instance of how the C.P.R. has used its influence with the government to secure the development of the west. Since that time the Gait Company has been practically squeezed out of the railroad business in Canada, and the line from Dunmore to Lethbridge has become a part of the C.P.R. system. Now the C.P.R. has withdrawn its objections and the development of the country will be proceeded with, strictly of course along C.P.R. lines and for C.P.R. benefit.

If there were no other properties on the North Fork of Carpenter creek than the Phoenix group of mineral claims, it would still be an important part of the Slocan mining district. The group consists of three claims, viz.: the Lib- bie R., the Phoenix and the Alham- .bra; and lies on the east side of the creek about four miles from the .town of Three Forks. The owners .are T. M. Gibson, E. G. Smidt, Dr. Bruner and W. Harrison. ��� Arriving at the Phoenix claim .we found a comfortable house where the two first named members of the company reside, and and entertain visitors with a hospitality characteristic of mine owners. * We find that a .tunnel has been .run into the mountain side about .sixty feet; that more than half of the distance it followed a stringer. About forty feet from the mouth of the tunnel, jn a ledge 6^ feet wide, two chutes of clean ore were found. ,One followed the foot wall and one the hanging wall, and from mere .seams at first both have widened until now or.e is 6 inches and the other 12 inches thick, and it is believed by all mining men who have seen the property that within it short distance the two chutes will unite and form a solid body of ore in the face of the tunnel. Assays on the ore found runs from 100 ozs. in silver up. One pay streak runs 420 ozs. in silver. Assays for lead show from 40 to 75 per cent per ton. The ore in the foot wall chute shows a considerable quantity of grey copper, picked specimens assaying several thousand ozs. per ton. It is believed that further development will show'large quantities of this character of ore. To Rent��� ROOMS IN THE COLUMBIA HOUSE. Also SEVERAL COTTAGES. Apply to W. J. SANDERS.

Mitchell were working together in what is known as Gob level in No. 5 long walk. On Tuesday morning about 5 oclock they lit a shot with the view of blasting. The shot not going off in the usual time, Patterson, after some delay, went back to the spot, when the shot went off, injuring him severely about the face, breast and arms. D. C. Clark, of the Ruth, has gone to Rossland where he has some interests. Herbert Twigg, the New Denver surveyor, is determining the boundaries of some claims hear Ainsworth. Yes, books are scarce in newspaper offices. The Prospector has no dictionary and the Rossland Miner has no grammar. C. W. McAnn, who was fined $20 by the police judge for discharging a revolver on the street, has appealed the case to the county court. The school directors held a meeting Wednesday and in footing up accounts ascertained that the district is $32 in debt. The cost of moving and repairing the school- house was $360, The rftmaining portion of the government appropriation of $400 was applied to the payment of outstanding accounts, leaving only the above named amount of $32 still unpaid. The question with tlie board now is: how shall it be paid? The board has no power to raise money. Over Ills Head. Three Forks citizens determined some time ago that they wouldn't be be put off any longer ��by the Gold Commissioner, but that they would appeal direct to the provincial government when they want anything It was in this manner that they obtained the money for the North Fork trail. When Col. Baker stopped in Tinee Forks overnight about 20 claiia holders beseiged him in his hotel and he was glad to grant them $500 to get rid of them, as they wouldn't take "no" for an answer, and would have filled the car and gone with him to Victoria if he hadn't acceeded to their just demands. A petition is now being circulated in Three Forks and receiving many signatures. It is addressed to the officials at Victoria and expresses consternation at and disapproval of the action of the Gold Commissioner in refusing to expend on the TferJBe Forks and Sandon Jvagon road the money appropriated by the Provincial parliament for thut purpose.

I have the honor to be, Sirs, Your obedient servant, JOHA.NN WULFKSOHN, Imperial German Consul. rTo His Worship the Mayor and Aldermen of the City of Kaslo, B.C. _______ Will be Running in September. Vancouver World: D. J. Munn, .who has just returned from the Kootenay country, reports that a force of over 500 men are. employed in grading the Kaslo & Slocan railway and in a short time the number will be increased to 1,000, The rails will be on the ground by July and the whole 32 miles of road from Kaslo to Cody creek will he completed and ready for operation by September. A great number of trails are already being built from the mines down to the line of the railway and others are projected, so that as soon as the railway is completed the mine .owners will be in a position to ship. Many new strikes have recently been made in the Kaslo- Slocan country, among them the Ruth which is on the same mountain as the Slocan fetar, the Daisy on the South Fork of the Kaslo, rand a new body of ore has been .struck on the Lucky Jim. One of the most satisfactory features of the West Kootenay country is that the ore bodies are so large that the miners are able to sell enough as they develop their properties to pay them well for their work, and a poor man is not therefore obliged to sell his prospect to a capitalist, but can hold on to his claim and reap all the benefits from it. The policy of the new road will be to develop the mining interest by giving low rates, relying on the rolume of ore shipments to pay it. APPLICATION FOR LIQUOR LICENSE Notice is hereby given that the undersigned Will at the expiration of thirty days apply to ihe Stipendiary Magistrate of West Kootenay litrict for a license to sell liquor at retail in his Hotel at Watson.
