I untieipate w hat may be said, that is because theie is ono ques- tion, the Al.iskan boundarv, which has proved a stumbling block>m 0111 way. Hut many say we have no reason to be ashamed of our record in that respect. If the commission had dealt w ith matters which were before us iu the manner w hich other compulsions have dealt with similar questions, the Aluskuu bouudari question would lime been sottled, but Jt would have been settled to our detriment aud not to our benefit.

A gentleman visiting in the north writes the Vancouver , News-Adver- liscr as follows: "It strikes me that British Columbia will never know what it has lost hy its present inefficient-steamboat service. I regret to say it, but it is true nevertheless,' that the poorest of the United States boats are better than the best Canadian boats. Consequently all persons going south pre fer-to take the American boats and th'e passengers land iu Seattle, and at the first .place they land they buy their goods. Duty charges cut a very small figure when a man finds what he wants. Now that' this northern traffic is assured for years to come, we should have two boats capable of making 17 or 18 knots an hour, and fitted out first class in every respect. These boats would take all thetradethey could cany." The foregoing is a conoise and clear .statement of the facts and we heartily commend it to the attention of the Vancouver and Victoria boards of trade. ment,, in the fullness of its heart, would allow the munificent- sum of $60 per month for the salary of a teacher. No qualified teacher can be secured at such a salary and as a consequence, the school has been closed.' The methods of the government in dealing with affairs iu this district is exasperating in lhe extreme.' W. A. Carlyle, superintendent of 'the Le Roi mines at Rossland, and ex-provincial mineralogist, has been offered the posision of superintendent of the Rio Pinto minesv in Spain at a salary of 525,000a year. It is said that he has accepted, and will shortly leave for Spain. r His present salary is $10,000. It is hinted that W. A: 'Jowett,' for some time publisher of the Nelson Miner, will be appointed Gold Commissioner and1 Government Agent there, as successor to John' A. Turner. For the four weeks eliding September ist there were 4,115 tons of ore smelted at the Hall Mines smelter, containing approximately ���' 79 tons of copper and 51,720 ounces of silver. PARSONS Groceries, PRODUCE CO. -:o:- Provisions, , . ' ' '...and..; ' ��� ,'- General Merchandise, THlv It is good news to the people of Atlin to know that the Anaconda . group of quartz mines has, passed . into the hands of an English com- ' pan j*. The transfer was not made before the purchasers made a careful investigation of surface indications. During the winter more .'extensive investigation will be made . and if results justify it a very large number of stamps will be put in operation next year. This is of first importance to the people of ' this district, for if this ore can be worked profitably then the future of Atlin as a very large mining camp is firmly established. We have the assurance of a number of gentlemen, eminently qualified to speak, that there are a number, of such propositions within a short distance of Atlin and if the one under consideration proves a success then extensive plants will be put into operation during the next two or 'three vears. Why should there' be any difficulty about getting mails into Atlin? There is no trouble about sending iu a bale cf hay or cooking-stove. But the post office department finds it difficult to carry letters in with regularity.���Victoria Colonist. We would inform the Colonist that thec trouble lies in the transporting of the mails from Victoria and Vancouver to Skaguay. So far as we can learn the mails from the latter place to Atlin have been handled with fair dispatch. According to a "Daily Mail" despatch Mr. Marcus Daly is bu- ing up all available gold and copper claims at Fairview and Similkame. 11. The'Transvaal situation's briefly this: The Boers offer to concede the franchise insisted upon .b3' Sir Alfred Milner, /but couple it with the condition that Britian shall abandon all pretensions to exercise suzerain powers over the Republic. There is not the least prospect that the British Government will consent to this tactily or otherwise, and the whole question of peace or _ war, therefore, depends on whether the, Boers will recede from pressing this condition. ; '. .,- .' - The Hon. J. Israel Tarte, Minister of public works of Canada, who lately underwent a serious operation in Paris, for which he had specially voyaged to Europe, says the London, Eng., Star of Sept 2, is unfortunately not pulling round as satisfactorily as was expected. Of late years Mr. Tarte-took a very active part in the hard work of Canadian politics and the excitement and worry have apparently shaken his general health in a serious waj*. Crow's Nest Pass coal is being delivered to consumers in Rossland at $6.25 per ton. The news from Atlin printed in our Vancouver telegrams this morning is highly interesting. It has been expected for some time that the district would prove to be specially valuable for its quartz, and the latest news seems to bear this out. Between its hydraulic and lode mines, Atlin will next year attract the attention of capitalists to an unusual degree. Railway construction into the district will be assured, if the present prospects are realzied.���Victoria Colonist. Bennett Lake and Klondyke Navigation Co., U Tlie li. L.' & K. N.

They took time to shake hands \\ ith their friends iu this city. The Topeka must huve landed on the wrong "bank," for L. Beid is still with the Merchants of Halifax. As to Ed. Russell, we think that must mean "Our Jim." - A good many citizens were doubtful as to the final outcome of the big quartz deal that happily saw consummation last Mouduy, owing to, company Russell's departure. But "Jim" is u government man, uud when governments ure tottering, hydraulic, placer and quartz can ull go to Halifax, as far as he is concerned. Tho State first, last and all the time. A BIG RUSH.

The Co ist papers arabmy counting members' noses these days und figure out the government in the majority or minority, according to their respective politicul views. Considering the defections of Joseph Martin und 1>. W. Higgins and the reported desertion of Hon. Hclgesen and R. Macpherson, the government is numerically weak at best; but its great weakness lies in its lack of ability. Outside of Mr. Cotton, there is not ono man ou the government side who can put up a strong fight; all the fighters are now on the other side. The government was weak in numbers when it began, but Joseph Martin is a host in himself when there is any fighting to be done. If the government lives until the legislature is called, it will bo only to meet its death at the hands of an opposition tint Sir Motteuzie Bow ell'was at Culgary ou Sept. 10, on his way to Edmonton.

There has been for some time past an agitation for a railway connecting the White Seu with St. Petersburg, Central Russia, the Hal- tie, und the Black Sea, greatly wanted, chiefly on commercial grounds. The Sea route between Europe and Northern Siberia, it has been found, cannot be relied ou, so much depending ou tho state of the weather und the nature of the season. Three routes were propoued, uud the route adopted, and now in course of execution, is a line from Vologda to Arc-hang. It is ubout 1,000 miles in leugth, uitd*wJll he a narrow gauge. The work is being carried out by the Moscow, Juroslav and Vologda .Railway Company, which in future will be known as the Moscow, Juroslav and Archangel Railway Company. .The capital to be ultimately raised is 19,000,000 roubles (&.1,000,000), the debentures being guaranteed by the stute. The company also receives an annual subsidy for tw*elve years, commencing at 1.000,000 roubles und declining gradually to 800,000 roubles. The lino is to bo completed by January next, and from January, 1907, the Russian government has the right to acquire the whole of the system of the company. This railwuy line will pluee Archangel iu direct communication with Moscow and indirectly with St. Petersburg. IN BOESLAND. London Press Opinions on the Situation. London, Sept. 18. -The reply of the Trasn- vuul to Mr.'Chamberlain's latest note is said to co\cr nine pages. It is eminently 'of the "negative and inconclusive"' character which Mr. Chamberlain declared would compel the consideration of the situation afresh. It practically repudiates suzerainty, reverts to tlie seven-year franchise and declines'to give equality to the Dutch and English language m the Yolksraad. In short, it is politely negutive and defiant. The. full text may not be avniluble'for some time, but it will not change the aspect of nfrairs. It is supposed that the next move ou the part of the Trans\aol is an appeal to the powers. The Morning Post says: "The Boers mean to fight; that is the plain English of it." The Stundard:' "The Transvaal note is unsatisfactory. * It might be going too far to say that, the last hope of peace has vanished, but it is idle-to deny that the Transvaal rulers have brought their country very close to the brink of disaster which the British government has done its best to uvert." . The Daily Mail: "President Krugcr's defiance has terminated a long period of unrest and uncertainty in South Africa, for, whatever may be the issue of the present situation, one thing is certain, that duulism in South Africa will end forever." The Daily Chronicle:' "President Kruger is a shifty uud iinprueticu'Kpoliticiau. fit only to be spoken to across a line of bayonets." THE' Canadian Bank... ...of Commerce. BROWNLEE & LOWRY J. H.
