II ���IWIIIIII !!��� IUI IMIIIIIIIII MIW THE WINNIPEG. HE Winnipeg- mine is situated in Wellington camp, on the summit of the mountain range between Fourth of July Creek and Boundary Creek. It was discovered by Duncan Mcintosh on July loth, 1895. The owner was sobn satisfied that the property had.merit, and cabins to accommo-, date 35 men were built. A wagon road to connect-with the government road was made about one mile distant, and the prospect shafts sunk, 15, 35 and 59 feet deep and some crosscutting done. The work done showed two strong leads, one having- an ore body averaging from 12 to 17 feet in width, and the others two feet wide. The assays niade from these leads show values above the average of the camps. The property was crown granted on February 16th, 1896. In August 1897, the Winnipeg Mining & Smelting Co., I/td. was organized,���the officers being : Duncan Mcintosh, president; John Mack, vice-president; W. T. Honey, secretary ; D. H. Beecher, treasurer. The capital stock is divided into 1,000,000 shares of the par value of $1 each, 300,000 shares being placed in.the treasury. On November 1st the work of developing- the property was commenced, a complete hoisting and pumping- plant was installed. A double compartment shaft 4xS)4 was started which is now down about 90 feet. It is the intention of the management to push the de-; velopmeut work forward as fast as it can be done economical^7-. They���are now working two shifts:v. A trial shipment of ore is now in transit to the smelter, and the Winnipeg could be put on-the list of regular shippers if we had a railroad as there is considerable ore in sight. ���sic THE KNOB HILL. The Knob Hill belonging to the Knob Hill Gold Mining Company, 1/td., the first claim located in Greenwood camp, was staked by Henry White in 1891 and is celebrated throughout the country for its immense surface showings. All the development on this property thus far has been surface work. An open cut about 17 feet deep runs across the hog back 108 feet and shows up g-ood ore every foot of the distance. Extensive work is planned to start in the spring. Machinery has been ordered and will be on the ground in a few weeks and will be worked with air from the Old Ironsides compressor plant. The officers of the Knob Hill Gold Mining- Companj-, I/td., are : F. P. Buck, president; Chas. Chisholm, vice-president; C. A. Finch, secretary and treasurer ; Jay P. Graves, manager ; J. F. Hemenwa}', superintendent and agent. ��J'4 iV��- iV*- ^1? "tflF ^ RAILWAY MATTERS. In the desire for railway communication.to.the district, it is well not to become too enthusiastic over any particular road. Of course, in order to develop our mineral resources, a railway connecting- the district with' the trade centers of both the east and west is very necessary, but there is no need of going into ecstacies over Mr. Corbin, the C. P. R. or any other system. The possibilities of the country are so great .that railwa3r corporations -will in a short time be only too anxious to bid for our trade, without receiving- half the territory- through which they intend to construct the road and larg-e cash subsidies, for the privilege of fleecing- us after the rolling- stock is in motion. The building of a railway is a business proposition and ; the chances of a road becoming a paj'ing concern are thoroughly weighed by the promoters before construction is commenced, or even before a charter is applied for. ; If there is not sufficient trade in sight to make the concern a paying one, no bonus would induce a railway corporation to build into the district. If there is a certainty of the line becoming- a dividend-pa/yer, the road will be built without either a bonus or a land grant. The Kettle river district needs a railway and needs it badly, and there is the prospect of such an amount of trade as to g-.uarantee the construction and running of his road on a paying- basis or D. C. Corbin would not be so anxious to build into the Kettle river mines without bonus or land grant. If the building of a railway into this district is onl}' to be . accomplished at such a sacrifice to the public as the proposed charter to McKenzie' and Mann for the construction of a road between Stickeen river and Teslin Lake, people would be much better without railway . communication for the present. The following excerpt from an editorial in the ISTews-Adyertiser of the 6th inst. states fairly the case of the proposed charter in the Yukon : " We have now fairly stated the actual situation and the problems connected with the undertaking. The question before both parliament and the people is as to the manner in which the work shall be carried out, the present and future interests of the country being considered. This is a question of far more serious import than some of those who have so hastily endorsed the action of the government, in regard to the contract with Messrs. McKenzie and Mann seem to comprehend. By that contract it is proposed to create a great monopoly as regards the construction of railways in the direction of the Yukon district and to give to these contractors privileg-es with further railway construction, the mere bare concessions for which may in a year or two be worth very large,sums of money. Indeed, there is little doubt that even now, had the government acted with greater celerity. and with better business methods, and stated that it was prepared to give an exclusive concession for a term of years for the construction and operation of a railwa3r, under such favorable traffic possibilities as exist, there would have been applications from responsible companies and individuals to undertake the enterprise on its intrinsic, merits as a money-earning work, without any extraneous aid from the country." Jig. 0k REDISTRIBUTION. ," The Nelson Tribune says the electors have an implied promise of a redistribution bill before the next election. Have the3r ? When was it given ? This particular misstatement of the Opposition press has been disproved time and time again." The foregoing is taken from the Victoria Colonist, the organ of Dunsmuir and his government. The reply of the Rossland Record is, for the present purpose, sufficient. The Record says: "If Mr. Turner did not promise a redistribution of seats, from the public platform, while in Rossland recently', every, hearer misunderstood him. He said he had opposed it upon former occasions, and that the wisdom of his opposition was now apparent, and that Rossland would appreciate-it, because had it been done she would suffer great injustice now. The irreat irrowth of West Kootenay and Trail Creek entitled this section to a redistribution. Rossland is watching- .with interest and alarm the uncertain attitude of Premier Turner and his organ, the Colonist, upon the question."

A well attended meeting of the residents of Boundary^ Creek district was held in Rendell & Co's. hall on Satur- da3r evening last. Mr. Thos. Hardy was voted to the chair arid Mr. A. S. Black appointed secretary. After the finance committee had reported Mr. James Kerr moved and Mr. D. C. Mc- Rae seconded that a delegate be sent to Ottawa. Messrs. Kerr, W. T. Smith, Naden, Galloway, J. F. Hemen- way, J. H. Macfarlane, Ma3^or Wood, J. Harlan, J. W. Nelson and others spoke in favor of sending the delegate and the motion was carried unanimous- ,ly. Mr. Nelson then moved and Mr. J. '#TEI. Macfarlane seconded that Mr. Duncan Ross be the delegate. This motion was also carried unanimously. Messrs. Hardy, Gallowa3r and Hal- lett of Greenwood and F. Keffer, M. E., and T. A. GJ-arland of Anaconda were appointed a committee to work with the'Midway committee, in advising the delegate, who promised to send reports of the railwa3r proceedings at Ottawa. The question of advertising Was also brought up b3r Mr. Hardy, and Mr. Macfarlane who returned recently from the east suggested that copies ofCory- eLTsmiaps be distributed in the, eastern cities. Mr. Coryell who was present generousH' donated 50 of his excellent maps for the use of the delegate. The offer was accepted with the. t?' thanks of the meeting-. His Worship, Mayor Wood, was appointed a deleg-ate to watch 'Boundary Creek interests during- the session of the provincial legislature. Short addresses were delivered hy Messrs. W\ H. Norris and J. McLveod of Midway. The Rossland Miner's Position. Because This Boundary Creek Times has taken a stand in the interests of of the district in favor of Corbin's road, the Rossland Miner makes the startling assertion that the editor of This Times is hopelessly deficient in the ability to discern the difference between right and wrong or that he is controlled .-.by the Canadian Pacific Railwa\-. The Times has done the Miner an injustice. It asserted that the Miner was designedly dishonest in its statements regarding- the Boundary Creek Railway situation. We now believe that the Miner is more fool than knave or it would never make the assertion that The Timks was the slave of any railway corporation. As the C. P. R. lias purchased Heinze's interests in British Columbia, it, is safe to assume that all incidentals like the Miner were thrown in and consequent^- the Rossland paper will now be found championing- the cause of the C. P. R. just as vig"orousl3r as it fqug-ht for its late master. A newspaper loses its iu- fluence when it becomes an automaton for any railway company. ���A.

THE BOUNDARY CREEK TIMES. '���K MIDWAY NOTES. ���i ** tii [SPECIAL CORRESPONDENCE.] Mr. J. Bush, a brother-in-law of D. McDuff, has arrived here with another .gentleman from the east. Mr. Bush will have charge of Mr. McDuff's blacksmithing establishment here while the latter leaves for your town to be a resident there, as he has bought Mr. Huff's blacksmithing- and horseshoeing- establishment. Mr. Bush is <juite an artist on the violin.5 Dan Shaser who has been a resident 1 here for about a year and who, with liis brother, has for the last three months log-g-ed for Wm. Powers, left for the Sound to get ready to go to the Klondike. Dan intends to take about ten head of horses with him and will be ready in about a month to leave for the northern eldorado. We wish him all luck possible in his undertaking. The invitations for the K. of P. ball at Nelson arrived in this town and there is a prospect of quite a good attendance from here, roads and weather permitting. The survey party of the C. P. R. were here on Monday and located their line as far as the flat on the Midway Townsite property. It varied from the Heinze survey in the neighborhood of about 300 feet lower than the former. It is rumored that Val and Will Hughes will start for the Klondyke country in a short time. Mr. James Monaghan of Spokane went through here on Sunday on his monthly trip to Camp McKinney to inspect the Cariboo mine. The population-of Midway was increased last Sunday night0 by the arrival of a 12 pound young lady at the residence of Mr. Hugh Murray. Mother and daughter are doing well and Hugh is correspondingly elated. One member of the family was overheard to say that she is not the smallest of the family now. Peace, gentle peace, is reigning once more among the society leaders here and faction fights seem to be over for awhile, hostilities are laid aside. East week the school directors held an investigation at the school house as to corporal punishment inflicted by the teacher Miss McKenzie on the scholars, and especially on one, whose parents do not seem to believe in the old adage, " spare the rod and spoil the child," but after a thorough examination of facts, the trustees exonerated the teacher and advised her to use the rod with discretion whenever necessary. It is rumored that Miss McKenzie intends to leave here about faster to go to her home in the east. J. M. Mitchell,builder and contractor, is laid up with a severe cold, but his many friends expect to see him around in a short time attending to business. N^mo. WITHOUT COMMENT. To the Editor of the News-Advertiser.

A Pure (irape Cream of Tartar Powder. 40 YEARS THE STANDARD. ent which appeared in the " News-Advertiser '' under date December 28th, at a recent meeting of the Association the undersigned were appointed a com-, mittee to deny the reflections containV ed in the article in question. Your correspondent asserted that the Association had been organized altogether by the comparatively few residents of Greenwood ; that certain residents instrumental in organizing the Association are narrow and somewhat selfish ; that the same narrow spirit was uppermost at the meetings, aiid that there is a feeling that the organization is a Greenwood, rather than a' district one. As the Association was formed solely for the purpose of promoting the interests of Boundary Creek district, we feel tempted to go into a lengthy denial of your correspondent's charges, but, not wishing to take up too much -Of your space, we will confine ourselves to the assertion that the charges are false in every particular. The Boundary Greek Mining and Commercial Association is not a Greenwood association. Its members are from all points of the district and the Greenwood members of the Association also represent the district : inasmuch as they own property all over the district, as much as any living outside,of the town. No selfish spirit was shown at any of the meetings. The majority of the officers reside in Greenwood, it is true, but such an arrangement,, was made in order to insure a quorum at the meetings of the Executive. The people of Boundary Creek district have been trying for years to secure recognition at the hands of the government, and when they bound themselves together to be in abetter position to make known their wants; they are surely entitled to greatefr^oiij sideration at the hands of a page^i|sQ widety circulated as the News-AdverT tiser, than to be called narrow and somewhat selfish. The Association is somewhat anxious that the impression should not get abroad that it is not representative, and we respectfully request that this denial be given the same publicity as the charges of your correspondent.���Yours, etc., ROBERT WOOD, GEO.

If: 'i - h J!: ��^v^.i/j^��i*MJMijak3giw'-;i��^^3^ uiiHwiiiHumi Navigation of the Okanagan. The United States government is about to make navigable the Okanagan riyer from where it flows into the Columbia river to Osoyoos lake, a distance of 80 miles. Osoyoos lake lies partly in British Columbia and partly in the state of Washington. The Okanagan river has its source in Okanagan lake, and between that beautiful sheet of water and the Boundary line, a distance of about 45 miles, passes through Dog and Vaseux lakes, which have a sufficient depth for steam navigation purposes at all seasons of the year. The distance that separates one lake from the other is drily a few miles in each instance. With the completion of the improvement of the navigation of the Okanagan river by the American government, the entire country in British Columbia tributary to that stream can also be made passable for steamers of light draft, provided the Dominion government will jfr^ navigable those portions of th& river that connect Dog, Vaseux and Okanagan lakes. This would not be a difficult engineering feat. There might be a slight except tion at the Okanagan Falls, but still locks of an inexpensive nature could be constructed around them. There is a rich belt of agricultural, grazing and mineral land in this vicinity, and the people there should be given every possible means of ingress and egress at the earliest moment, as well as an opportunity to enjoy the benefits of competing lines of transportation., The foregoing extract from the Rossland Miner will be interesting to those who have some knowledge of the Okanagan river between Osoyoos and Penticton. While the navigation of the Okanagan between Osoyoos and Dog Eake may appear feasible on paper, the facts are that the river is only navigable to the smaller varieties of fish and water fowl. Some years ago Mr. Gamble, a Do- minion government engineer, estimated the cost of making the stream navigable, from Okanagan Eake to Dbg Eake���a distance of four miles only���' to be about $45,000. This, of course, would be the least expensive part of the whole distance between Okanagan and Osoyoos lakes. To make the river navigable would cost several million dollars, and when that was accomplished, the work would be of no practical utility tp the people living along the stream. It would necessitate transportation of produce by boat from, say Dog Eake to Wenatchee, where the Great Northern crosses the Columbia, a distance of abotit 200 miles, then by rail to market. By going north from Dog lake produce and cattle could reach the C. P. R. boat . at Penticton���about 14 miles���thence to the C. P. R. at the head of Okanagan lake���a much shorter and cheaper route than the one proposed. But the people of the district do not look to the navigation of the Okanagan for transportation. What we require is railway communication, that will give the ranchers north of us a natural market in the mining camps of the Okanagan and Kettle river, and transportation of ores from and merchandise to those camps. Columbia-Kootenay Sold. The Columbia-Kootenay group says the Rcssland Miner of the 8th inst., passed into the hands of the British America corporation yesterday. The purchase- price was $275,000, and outside of the War Eagle deal it was the biggest mining transaction yet made in the camp. . The group was owned by the Trail; Mining Company, which held a special' meeting in Chicago yesterday, to consider the British A.merica's offer for the mine. Its proposition was accepted, and Hon. C. H. Mackintosh, the -Canadian director^of the B. C. A., was telegraphed the result. He immediately wired back the first payment on the property and the deal was closed. The group, which lies , about a mile and a half of Rossland on Columbia mountain, is one of the best known mining properties in the camp. It includes the Columbia, the Kootenay, the Copper Jack, the Tip Top and the Kootenay fraction, and has been extensively developed by two ��tunnels'.'' and. a shaft. An immense body of ore has been uncovered. In fact, the property has been considered the typical medium-grade proposition of the camp. On the surface the ledges are heavily stained with iron, and streaked with decomposed sulphide ores, including much pyrrhotite with a little copper and some arsenical iron. In sections of the mine mineral is encountered that has yielded smelter returns of over $50 per ton. Boundary Valley Lodge, No. 38, l.O.O.F.

OPINIONS OF THE PRESS. The claim that the C P. R. is behind the new Yukon railway puts Mann and Mackenzie in the light of mere figureheads who are not acting for themselves at all. The cry is raised that this is merely another link in the gigantic monopoly which this great corporation is gradually building tip. Did it ever strike those who are in favor of the nationalization of railways that one of the ways to bring it about would be to let the railway systems of the country become consolidated under one management so that the government could take it over as one machine instead of subsidizing sections here and patches there ? Experience has shown that railroad competition does no permanent g-ood. Even now if the C P. R. were paralleled from end to end, the rates would be no cheaper than they are today unless the government saw fit to force a reduction.' The employees might be a trifle more attentive and a faster service be provided, but that would be all the good that would be done.���The Province. The question of miners' licenses will -orobablv form a subiect for discussion at the forthcoming- session of the legislature. The miners have been agitat ing for some time past to have the licenses removed, not so much, apparently, because they feel the burden of the tax of five dollars a year���for that, with the great majority of them, is neither here nor there���but because the men who work in coal mines are not taxed too. It is, however, a question whether in the interests of the men themselves the licensing system should riot be retained and, in fairness, extended so as to include the coal miners. A license is practicalry a certificate of character. The man who has one is in a sense guaranteed by the government. If he misbehaves himself his license is cancelled and he cannot get work in the mines of this country at any rate. As long as the license is retained he -will not become a party to the blowing up of the mines with dynamite or to participating- in riots of the class which have been all too common across the border.���The Province. It might also be well for the government to bear in mind the important fact that if the office [land registry] is established at either of the Kootenay lake cities, the one that fails to secure it will, almost to.a man, be opposed to the present administration at the next <:reneral elections.���Rossland Miner.

Hedges of Greenwood camp left for Spokane this week. W. T, Smith left the city on Thursday on mining- business. Telephone poles are being put" in place along the wag-on road between Marcus and Grand Forks. J. W. Lind of Anaconda left for Southern California last week, and will be absent about three months. J. Cunningham of Summit camp was in town Wednesday night on business connected with his many mining interests in the district: The Greenwood public school opened Thursday'. morning, Mr. Keith, the teacher, having arrived from the coast on Wednesday's stage. A "number of the 3roung people of Greenwood drove out to the residence of D. A. Holbrook Monday night and had a very enjoyable dance. J. McDowell, while hauling- logs to the Greenwood sawmill on Wednesday last, had his, leg- badly bruised and will be under the doctor's care for some time. J. Thompson, manager of McNicol's Midway store, and J. A. Unsworth, druggist, Midway, were in the city- Wednesday on business connected with railway matters. The third masquerade carnival of the season was held on the Greenwood Skating Rink, Wednesday evening. There were about thirt}' masks on the ice and some of them very pretty. It was impossible to get the names and costumes of all who took part. Among the.lady masks, Mrs. Naden, as Fairy Queen, deservedly takes first place. Miss Dolly Fisher as a Spanish Girl, also wore a charming costume. Mrs. Hallett, a very striking Japanese costume, and Miss Miller made a splendid Little Red Riding Hood. Mr. George Miller bj- placing two inches of wood on his skates and dressing as a lady, fooled every one on the rink. Messrs. R. Stuart and Geo. Guess, as twins, wore the heat and natty uniform of the Northwest Mounted Police. Mr. Phe- lanmade a capital episcopalian clergyman and Mr. F. McLaiue posed as a sleep-walker. . F. M. Kerby, C. E}., this week completed the survey of the Sterling claims in the district. The claims purchased by Mr. Sterling last fall were : Big Iron and V Fraction, Central camp ; Myrtle, Greenwood camp;. Silver Plume, Oro Denero Fraction and Remainder Fraction, Summit camp, and Pride of the West, Wellington camp. Work in the 2nd and 3rd Degree was exemplified in the Oddfellows Lodge at Greenwood on Tuesday evening. At the next meeting Initiatory work is expected to come up and all members who are able are urged to be present. The membership in this order is steadily increasing and the meetings are interesting and well attended. Three applications for membership are now before the lodge, and several others expected. G. I}. Seymour, of the Windsor hotel, who has been absent since last June, returned to Greenwood on Wednesday. During his absence Mr. Seymour, visited England, France and the Isle of Man, and on the return trip taking in Chicago, Salt Lake City and a part of Texas. He reports the, Klondike craze everywhere. Lven the Spokane route has taken possession of some of the misguided and misdirected ones. Mr. Seymour will remain in the city. The local writer, during the absence of the editor at Ottawa, offers his apologies to readers for scarcity of news in this issue. Having- been taken, without any previous warning, from the front end of a surveyor's chain, out of an atmosphere of randoms, tangents, traverses, angles and Anglo Saxon, it is difficult to get the accumulated knowledg-e down to a paying newspaper basis.. The randoms, traverses, tangents and angles hereinbefore mentioned would not in-, terest the public to any veiw great extent, while it -would; hot perhaps be advisable to give away professional secrets in using the Ang-lo Saxon, aforesaid in the columns*.of a local newspaper.

"It is quite true that the sessions of the legislatures of Quebec and Ontario are little more than half as long as those of this province, and in New Brunswick very little more than a third of the time consumed in legislative business, as is taken by the government of British Columbia, and there may be ample reasons to justify the longer sessions of the province. They are not, however, apparent. Certainly Premier Turner has no more important interests to deal with than has Mr. Hardy, Mr. March and, or Mr. Emmer- son. The truth is, probably, that the government here has not its business so well in hand as do the others, and is very much less decided in dealing with the legislature.

Heinze, by a representative of the Anaconda ( Mont.), Standard, as to the terms of the; recent Heinze���-C. P. R. deal : Mr. Warfield confirms the report of the sale bjr Mr. Heinze of the Columbia & Western railwajr from Rossland to Robson,B. C, and the Heinze smelter at Trail to the Canadian Pacific railway. Mr. Warfield engineered the sale or was largely instrumental in consummating it, and is accordingly familiar with the facts in connection with it. He stated last evening that Mr. Heinze sold the railroad and smelter for $1,250- 000 cash, and retains a half interest in the land grant, which gives him 3,000,- 000 acres of the most valuable land lying between Rossland and Robson in the valley of the Columbia river. He also reserves his mineral claims and his townsites, which constitute another large interest. It is the Canadian Pacific's intention, Mr. Warfield states, upon assuming control of the properties to broaden the gauge of the road, which is at present a narrow gauge, between Trail and Rossland, and put in a lead plant in connection with the smelting- plant. A freight and treatment rate of $8 will be made from Rossland to Trail, which is 50 cents lower than previous rates. It is also expected, Mr. Warfield states, that the Canadian Pacific will build a road west from Robson through the Boundary country to Penticton. Rossland Greenwood.

Duncan Ross, editor of the Times, left Tuesday morning for Ottawa, where he has gone to look after the railwaj'- interests of the district. He will keep the people posted on railway matters through the columns of the Times. It is suggested that the Rossland Miner advocate that an appropriation be made to render Kettle river navigable from Rock creek eastward to the Christina crossing, thus diverting- the trade of this district to Rossland via the proposed Dewdney trail wagon road. Kettle river carries double the volume of water that flows through the Okanagan and could be made navigable at less expense. But why ? The C. P. R. locating engineers passed through Greenwood on Tuesday for Grand Forks and east. At present the mail is being carried from Penticton to Grand Forks by Snodgrass and Sons, Mr. Parker having thrown up his contract on the route between Grand Forks and Greenwood. The fire extinguishers were given a trial on Thursday last. Whether they were a success or not depends altogether upon the purpose for which they were built. If the}7- were intended for fire extinguishers, they are certainly the most harmless yet invented. Hotel Arrivals.

A Victoria dispatch says that a really first-class daily newspaper is to be started in Vancouver shortly by a strong syndicate, in which the Province Publishing company is heavily interested. The publication will, doubtless, be Eiberal in politics, as the World has lately refused to be rung up by prominent Eiberals, and has always been a little difficult to locate politically, much more so since Senator McEagan failed to take a seat in the Canadian upper house. A Prince Albert dispatch reports the discovery of gold in large quantities on Hay, Buffalo and other rivers that run into Great Slave lake. The information is considered perfectly reliable as the local missionary is the authority for the statement that gold is being brought in there every day by the Indians.

THE BOUNDARY CREEK TIMES/ GREENWOOD AND DISTRICT. R. W. McFarlaud left for Rossland Tuesda3r. Six men were put at work on the Snowshoe Tuesday last. A shaft has been sunk 105 feet on the Rogers group of claims on the east side of Summit camp. W. Wolf who has been in the hospital laid up with rheumatism for some time is around again. The shaft oil the Josie in Summit camp is now down 75 feet and the ore is improving with depth. George McKague is building a business block on Copper street, one half of which will be occupied as a barber shop. The shaft on the Winnipeg, Wellington camp, is down 97 feet and crosscut- ting on the ledg-e was commenced this week. R. M. McIDntyre, of the Old Ironsides mine, who has been in the hospital for a couple of weeks undergoing treatment for inflammation of the eyes is so far recovered as to come down town. W. Shaw is drifting on the ledge of the Blue Bell, Summit camp. The previous work done on the claim was in the form of a shaft about twenty feet in depth. Corkill and Hamilton have been doing development work oh the Great L-axy, Kholt Creek, for the past month. They have run a tunnel 30 feet with very satisfactory results. C, J. Ivtindy, of Hain & Co., Midway, was in the city Tuesday,' locating a consignment of coffee that had passed the customs but failed to arrive at its destination. The coffee was found at Anaconda. The agency of the Midway Townsite Company changes hands this weekj A. K. Stuart having- resigned: K. Jacobs will fill the position of agent for the company until the arrival of the agent Mr. Crane. Mr. Stuart will move to Greenwood. A benefit ball will be given by the Greenwood Dancing Club, on Fridajr evening, 18th inst. in Rendell & Co's. hall, in aid of railway legislation for the district. As this is a business proposition which affects every one in the district, it is hoped that all who have $1 to spare will put in an appearance. ; Refreshments will be served at the Pioneer. SPOKANE AND THE C. P. R. The extension of the Central Washington railroad to a connection with the Canadian Pacific would aid in the solution of the freight rate question for Spokane and eastern Washington. It would give this city and surrounding country international competition���as Senator B urn of Okanagan county expresses it, "honest competition," in contradistinction to the empty competition of the American transcontinental lines. The Canadian Pacific is out for tonnage 365 days in the year. Connection with the Central Washington would give it the gre ter part of the grain haul out of the Big Bend, the ore haul from the ��� Okanagan country', a larg-e part of the merchandise haul into this city, and the flour haul to the coast. That acquired, there would be little doubt that it would extend a line south into the rich Palouse country. All this would tend to the upbuilding of the Canadian city Vancouver, but Spokane and eastern Washington can not afford to stand on sentimentality in a matter so vitally concerning their material welfare. And for that matter this city and eastern Washington have received immense benefits from the upbuilding of the Kootenay district in British Columbia, and if they contributed to the upbuilding of a British Columbia city, that would be no more than a fair return of favors. We take pride in the growth of Seattle and Tacoma, but the fact can not be eliminated that in some respects they are our unrelenting rivals, and in every struggle we have made for justice in freight rates, have thrown their influence with Portland ag-ainst us.���: Spokesman-Review.

At a larg-ely attended meeting- held in the new city hall, Vancouver,, on "Wednesday of last week, to discuss the Yukon trade question and mining* matters g-enerally, Mr. J. H. Watson proposed the following- resolution, which was seconded and carried unanimously: Whereas, It has been shown that British subjects are being- supplanted by alien labor in the Kootenay and other parts of the. province where American capital has been invested, or where American managers and foremen are engaged, by discharging the British workmen to make room for the alien"; and Whereas, the British workmen are entitled to all the emoluments clue such workmen taken from'the'soil of this Canada of ours,, and British Columbia in. particular '; and Whereas, the action of these American capitalists and employers tends to drive the British subject from his birthright,��� the rig-ht to live and exist on the soil of his own country : " " , .Be.it Resolved, that this mass meeting- held in Vancouver does emphatically protest ag-ainst the granting- of miners' licenses or allowing miners to take tip claims except they be British subjects, and would urg-e upon the g-oyernment the necessity of protecting the miners of British origin in this province, by prohibiting- any alien from working- in the mines who cannot prove, a residence in the said province of at least three, years .:' And be it'further resolved that copies of this resolution be forwarded to Premier Turner and the members of. parliament for this city, A. Williams, F. C. Cotton and R. Macpherson, with the request that the}- use. their best endeavors to get the same enacted bvlaw. More Petitions.
