London, June 7.���Military operas tions in South Africa are apparently at a standstill. For a day or two the tired troops of Lord Roberts are resting, and he is filling the magazines and warehouses at a new base, Pretoria, preparatory to a long chase after the retiring Boers in the direction of Lydenburg. His cavalry are probably seeking to intercept Commandant Botha. Some dispatches are .to hand which left ���' Pretoria Monday while fighting was going on outside the city. They came by way of L/orenzo Marquess. One of them says: "Toward the end of the day, when the British were shelling the southern forts, a number of projectiles burst, damaging the suburbs. All day armed burghers have been leaving Pretoria, going east/where the greater part of the rai'rpad' rolling stock has been removed. General Botha's fighting is essentially a rear-guard action, the object being not to defend Pretoria, but to delay Lord Roberts until the railway switch had been cleared and the main part of the Boer army had started to withdraw.' The British ad- vanceappears to have left open to the Boers the best line of retreat along the railway." Possibly Lord Roberts has been able to-cut the railway before a full retire- ment was effected. That. Pretoria would 7be defended was apparently given out after the council of .war with a view of misleading the British. Lydenburg district, to which provisions originally destined for Pretoria have been diverted, and where a cartridge factory has been erected and where reserve supplies of all sorts are stored, is a volcanic region of fertile valleys, enclosed bv great ramparts of precipitous rocks, penetrated by nar-1 row. winding passes. ",. There are herds of cattle in the valleys and much native labor available for fortfying. The Boers used both heavy and light artillery at Pretoria. What is supposed to have been the last train that left Pretoria arrived at Lorenzo Marquez Sunday evening. Passengers ^included���a��� numbers of foreign volunteers who were leaving Boers and also wives and children of Hollanders.. They described Pretoria as destitute of food and clothing. What the Boer officials, could not take the natives and townspeople did. Probably the most important Boer army is at Laings Nek where both sides are passive. General Rundel and General Brabant ��have withdrawn a little -southward. Baden-Powell has extended martial law to the Marce and North Lichtenburg districts. Shots were exchanged between Boer and British patrols 18 miles east of Mafeking on May 28. Part of the forces lately at Pretoria are reported to have gone westward to meet Baden-Powell and to make a show of holding the country through which he and General Hunter are moving. Dispatches to the Daily Telegraph from Newcastle, dated Tuesday, describes Boers there as un unorganized rabble without flour, meat or sugar. Their surrender is only a question of time. Nevertheless correspondents aver, they hold strong positions with prospect of safe retreat toward Lydenburg. It is understood at Newcastle that the British government has approached the Natal government with a proposition that Natal shall voluntarily renounce local self-government for a time in order that a. good system of Crown government may be instituted for all South Africa, leading in course of time to federation and the subsequent authority of the various states similtaneously. Lorenzo Marquez correspondents at tach significance to a number of British warships in Delagoa Bay, suggesting that they are there possibly in anticipation of aiding the Portugese in the event of disturbances at the Transvaal border. JAPAN AND RUSSIA Said to Be Ready for Conflict Over Chinese Difficulties. Shanghai, June 6.���Soldiers dispatched to attack the "Boxers" fought an engagement quite close to Peking. Many were killed on both sides. In consequence of the representations of the Japanese government, the landing of a large Russian force at Taku is alleged to have been' stopped. It is believed here that should Russia persist in sending a large military force to the front a collision with Japan will be the inevitable result. Reports are current of the hurried completion of the mobilization of the Japanese fleet. ' CITY COUNCIL. By-Laws Discussed at a Special Meeting Last Wight. The council met last night to furthur consider By-Law 47, relating to the annexation of Greenwood and Anaconda. Mayor Hardy presided, and with the exception of Alderman Croply, the others were present.' After going into committee, By-Law. 47 was read a second and third time, but Alderman Galloway objected to it being passed. _ Considerable time was taken up in discussing the advisibility of using Lynn Creek for water supply. Thursday, June 21st, between the hours of 8 a. m. and 4 p. m.. was^ made the day for voting ori By-Laws 46 and 47, the city clerk to act as returning officer. '..���.-���:���: The matter of Debentures received some consideration, the clerk being instructed to open communication .vith the Manufacturing Life Assurance Co., stating that the city has $20,000 worth of bonds for sale and to ascertain what price they offer. :~ ' ���'���7'*: ' Mr. Curtis' Railway. Among " other trumped-up charges made by Mr. Curtis against Hon. C. H. Mackintosh was one of having given;a "black-eye" to the Sunset mine, in Ihe- Similkameen, which Mr. Curtis, on. the. authority of his notoriously unreliable mining partner, says is "due of the greatest copper properties in British Columbia." What about* the --black- eye" Mr. Curtis attempted to give the Boundary country when he publicly stated as a reason why a refinery must be established ori the Coast instead of in this district that "to run a refinery would need 50 tons of matte per day, which means 1,000 tons of ore per day"? Mr. Curtis thus indirectly asserted that by the time the Coast- Midway railway will be ready to take the product of our mines to the Coast- say two years hence, if it be built���. this district will not be producing 1,000 tons of ore per day. And yet he says that he has closely studied this question. Is this another evidence of his sincerity? Rather, is it another proof of his insincerity?���Midway Advance, WEST_F0RK F. T. Abbott Tells of the Rush to That District. PROSPECTORS RUSHING IN Road Badly Needed���Bier Showings of Hiffb-Grade Ore ��� Merchants Are Kept Busy. F. T. Abbott, manager of the Snodgrass stage line, returned yesterday from,a trip to the West Fork country. He is enthusiastic about the district and predicts for it a great future as soon as the district' is opened up arid easierx communication established thereto. "I visited the Washington and Idaho," he said to a Times representative.. "It is without exception the best surface showing I .ever saw. The ledge has been prospected by means of open cuts. There is 65 feet of ore averaging $50 to the ton. There is also a 100-foot shaft on the property sunk on- the ore. There are several properties on the same hill with splendid showings. There is a big rush of prospectors and men going in to do assessment work on their properties. The day I came out I met five outfits going in. The stores at Rendell and Beaverton are doing a good business but are handicapped by lack of roads and consequent difficulty in getting in supplies. Things are getting active, in town- site, matters. At Beaverton, Mrs. Thomyson is having the town subdivided, while I met Forbes M.; Kerby going in to survey Rendell. A. Branson is interested in the site between the two, He will put in a saw-mill. Mr. Abbott also stated that Dan McDonald has sold his stage line to a Mr. Kelly arid., that in. the���future -s stage will run six times a week between Rock Creek and Chesaw. Day by day the work on the Mother Lode mine is giving fresh evidence of the great body of pay ore which the property contains. Two cross-cuts at the 200.foot level are in 90 feet of solid ore; a third cross-cut which is nov: being ruii is in 45 feet of .solid ore and the probablity is that the ore body here will be same wi Uii as in the other two cross-cuts. FROM CHESAW. ���������������Go^OHtfee^Listr^^^��� A Vancouver dispatch says : -' The 565 - residents of the Nelson riding whose suffrage ��� has been hanging in the balance for the last week or two, may rest easy now on the,assurance that they may exercise to the full their voting prerogatives on Saturday next. The appeal in the .Nelson voters' list case was today allowed by the full court sitting here, Justice Walkem dissenting from the decision of Justices Martin and Irvine. The appeal was from a prohibition order, granted by Mr. Justice Drake at Nelson. It was understood at first that costs were adjudged to go with the order, but the question has been laid over for decision, owing to a question raised by E. P. Davis, Q. C, counsel for the respondent/^ Through the recommendation of W. C.Noble, the local manager, John Z. Beaton, who lost his left hand in the Golconda mine in February last, has just received 10,000 shares of treasury stock in the Golconda Mining company. The company had no liability in the master, and the handsome gift speaks hugely for the treatment by the management of an employee who was unfortunate enough to be injured while working for them. Mr. Smith Curtis stated last Wednesday night that he had been asked to buy the newspapers that are opposing him in this riding and had refused to do so. He was challenged by the editor of The Greenwood Times .and admitted' that he did not include that paper. If he intended to convey the impression that The Advance in any way approached him or anyone con-, nected with him, he did so knowing it to be absolutely untrue.���Midway Advance.

THE GREENWOOD WEEKLY ^IMES- /.i (Ueekly times* PUBLISHED BY The Greenwood Times Printing and Publishing Company, Limited. Duncan Ross ....'.Editor. SATURDAY, JUN 12 9, 1900, THE POLITICAL SITUATION. Martin either lost an opportunity, which was. golden, through lack of- foresight, or he .was insincere in his opposition to the "C.P. R. and iri; his advocacy' of Railway- competition.'*1*' So cunning'a politician as Jos. Martin knew the situation too well not to have taken advantage of it had his. heart been as responsive as his tongue is glib. AN'ELECTION ROORBACK. A gentleman of this Province, in writing East regarding the political situation in British Columbia, after reviewing the conditions which have affected thc country, for some years, concludes: " It is well known and generally understood that the Ottawa administration is strongly opposed to Martin in his role as premier and his claims to Liberal leadership in this Province. " Deep-seated in tbe minds of a large element of the electorate there is a feeling that the constitutional usages which form the bulwark of British liberty and freedom should not be disregarded as they have been during the present lieutenant-governor's tenure of office. It is true that conditions are unusual, but that state of affairs has been brought about largely by the unusual exercise of his prerogative. If the people, of course, endorse the present government, his conduct will have been, palliated���I will not say justified ���but if not he will undoubtedly suffer the consequences of dismissal. If Bis acts in this connection should be permitted to pass into precedent, it will, to say the least, be unfortunate, inasmuch as the door will be opened to grave constitutional abuses in the future. "And a strong, stable government is what the Province requires at this juncture. Among the ills'from which the Province is suffering at the present time are those arising out of the unsettled and unsatisfactory state of affairs politically. There is a feeling of uncertainty; .among those whose interests are affected either in the way of employment or in respect to returns on money invested which is highly detrimental to material development.. What is wanted politically is wise and well-digested legislation, firm administration and a careful study of the economic conditions which affect the prosperity of the whole people. Even brilliant people are less to be desired than those in whom the people at home and abroad will have confidence. With Premier Martin's record as political disturber and wrecker of governments, the one element of success in whose life as a politician has depended upon unrest and eternal combat, and with his legislative and administrative record while a member of a government in this Province, he cannot be regarded as a safe man, as such a man as the electorate as a whole would desire to see at the head of affairs. A GOLDEN OPPORTUN-TY LOST. So far as the Kettle River Valley Railway is concerned, as Mr. Bodwell has pointed out in his address at Rossland, Mr. Martin"fiad~if iiThrsTpowef to' bring the C. P. R. to its knees and give the Boundary country what it fought so hard to secure, viz: Railway competition. Mr. Martin has posed a good deal as a supporter of the Kettle River Railway and as an antagonist of the C., P. R. In fact, notwithstanding the position he recently occupied as the solicitor of the Company, he is represented in a cartoon, more striking for the absurdity of the Premier's attitude than any truth which is conveyed, ' as a giant dealing a death blow to monopoly in the form of the C. P. R. Keeping this in view, what did he do when he had the opportunity of once for all solving the problem and proving his sincerity ? Last year, at the very time Mr. Corbin had renewed his application for a charter for a railway into this district, the C. P. R. applied for an extension of the time in which it was necessary to make a selection of lands granted as a bonus to the C. & W. Ry. and file a plan of the same. The time limit had expired in April, 1898, and the Company had virtually lost its right to receive the land. What would have been easier for Mr. Martin as Attorney General to have stipulated as a.condition of renewal, that the C. P. R; should withdraw its opposition to the Corbin charter, before extending the time asked for ? The C. P. R. had already expended a large amount of money in surveying the line and constructing the road and could not have afforded to throw it up. It would have had to come to terms. What are the facts in regard to the matter ? During the session of 1899 an act was passed extending the time to the C. P. R. two years, wholly without conditions. Mr. A story, which originated in the Industrial World, Rossland, is being circulated here and elsewhere in the Jiding. It is as follows: The employees of the C. P. R. at Trail, both on the railway and in the smelter, are beginning to feel th$ pressure the company is bringing to bear on them to compell them to vote for C. H. Mackintosh. One by one the employees are called into the office and talked to, and arc finally given to' understand that if they do not vote right their discharge is certain. They have also been informed that if Mr. Mackintosh is not elected the smelter will be shut down indefinitely. In order to effectively give the quietus to the rumor, the employees, who are justly indignant on account of it, have voluntary made the following statement we are requested to publish. Here it is: We,' the undersigned, employees of the Canadian Pacific Railway company and smelter at Trail, having read statements in the Industrial World of May 26th last, to the effect that pressure is being brought to bear on us to vote for C. H. Mackintosh; that we are called into the office one by one and given to understand that if we do not vote right our discharge is certain, and that we have been informed that if Mr. Mackintosh is not elected the smelter will be shut down in>- definitely���beg to contradict the said statements in the most unqualified manner, and to say that there is not a word of truth in any of them. .

As a matter of fact, the strictest neutrality has been enjoined on all the C. P. R. officials. a day/within two years, aridywe have mines like the Mother Lode, B; C. and a dozen others already hear, or in, the shipping stage;*to depend 'upon for an. output. Why, under the circumstances,' should the matte of *thisv,,district be. sent to the Coast tp be refined ? Why not refine it here and send the refined product to the Coast,7 saving 50 per cent of the bulk and then ship by sea as Mr. Curtis suggests. ��� By the way, it has.not been explain- whether the Government proposes to build the refinery7 itself or whether capital has been secured to undertake; it. . Surely Mr. Curtis would not,, after: the fashion of the bunco townsite man. base his promises to the electors on things which exist only on paper, or, more illusive still, in his imagination. What guarantee haye .we that the Government, if elected, could or would build a railway or that a refinery .vould be built at the Coast at all ? ;which* will absolutely be defurict .after 'the 9tli of 'June.-���.anil'' upon, a ^platform that neither7 he7rib ;Mr.--7Marti'ii -ivilt; ever haVe the,slightest"ojpportunity of carrying into effect. The extravagent promises, heats' making-to the-^ electors are the merest hallucinations on his part and greater hallucinations on- the part of those who are foolish -enough to accept such visions of possibilities. WHY, NOT GREENWOOD? Smith Curtis proposes among other thing, to establish a refinery at the Coast to which the Government Railway will carry our matte. Assuming that Mr. Curtis' figures are correct as to the cost of treatment and the relative economic advantages of his scheme, why not have thei refinery at some point in the Boundary ? Mr. Curtis says it would requre au output of 1,000 tons of ore a day, or 60 tons of matte to make it pay and therefore it should be at the Coast. In the name of common sense where is thc copper matte to come from, if not from the Botndary in the first place? He spoke of Texada Island points and up the Coast, but it will be years before the prox'erties there, if the are developed at all, will produce copper ore to any material extent. 7. , . . Before Mr. Curtis would be able to complete Hi.s road to Midway, assuming the ability of the Government to carry it through, Boundary could produce not only 50 tons of matte per day but 150. If the estimates of reputable engineers *like Messrs. Robins and Williams of'Phoenix are correct, that camp alone will ship 2,000 tons of ore AN INCONSISTENT POSITION. LOOKING TO DENVER. : The action of Smith Curtis in bringing- such men as Chris. Foley and James Devine to instruct good Can a-, dian and British workingmen in this, district how to vote is, to say the least, not complimentary to the intelligence of our own people. These are no doubt good myn as. private citizens and ���eminently'quaU...(.I tp express'an opin- ion on political issues in the cout'try from which theyy recently came, but why should we be subject to their dictation and instruction? Mr. Foley, ;_'t the meeting on Wednesday evening,; admitted that he had just come from,' Denver and other points on the other s-d'- of the line nnd was not acquainted w.lh the [.resent political issues of the,, campaign. Nevertheless, because hei has ipeeu identified with labor inter-; ests and is to some"extent regarded as a leader where he came ffQtn, he is dragged on the platform here and else^ where to tell our . people what they, should do. . At a time when the whole British Empire has" been throbbing with the sensations of victory after a prolonged struggle over our enemies in South Africa, it is inopportune, to say the least, for those who" on the other' side are pro-Boer sympathizers to be7 come our mentors'in matters political; It is the sort of schoolmaKtership that loyal British subjects, of whatever class, should resent. The Times feels free to speak ori this subject. Its' course has been consistent on the questions affecting labor interests. It has always paid'un'on wages, and long before there was a union' in the'district; it is now a union journal; it has supported the eight- hour law.from the outset; it has advocated government ownership of railways; it has'always been the mouthpiece of progressive Liberal principles, more particularly where they applied locally. As a consistent and1 constant advocate' of these principles it must condemn the men arid the methods now employed in this cairipaigri being pa raded in the guise of Liberalisrii to the disgrace. and demoralization of the Liberal cause in this Province. In contradistinction to methods in this' riding, we find snclj* tried and trusted friends of labor as Jim Wilkes aiid Ralph Smith, recognized leaders, pjijthe^other side. Jiiri Wilkes, chief .Some persons-in this riding who are good Liberals say that while they cannot "support Joe Martin they will vote for Smith Curtis, because he is a Liberal, Joe, Martin they, recognize to be a discredited politician arid prac-: tically a misnomer, so far as being, a Liberal is concerriedl Smith Curtis having no past as a politician, it is held, is not in the same position. It* is '*unfortunate for- Mr. Curtis, if he. is all that his friends claim .him to be, that he is a candidate under Martin auspices. However, if he were an angel pf light itself, he cannot escape the fatepf his leader He was selected by. Mr'.- Martin .as'minister of mines.

Ralph Smith, the'presiderit ofthe Dominion Trades and Labor Council, is on the Coast organizing a labor campaign in opposition to the government. Facts like these are worthy of careful consideration. CERTAIN-DEFEAT FOR MARTIN. The Times has taken the trouble to interview several persons from the Coast as to the prospects of the Martin canditure. Almost unanimously the opinion is expressed that there is no possible chance of his electing, at the very outside, ov.er six candidates, with-' in the whole Province, One gentleman, a commercial traveller, who has just come from the Coast, where he represents one of the largest firms there, says it is doubtful if Martin himself will be elected in the city of Vancouver. The Coast districts, will be almost solid against him. Taylor, in Revelstoke riding, John Houston in Nelson and Bob Green in the Siocan���all anti-Martin���will be.elected sure. Murphy in West. Yale, Prince Ellison in East Yale, either Fulton or Deane in North Yale and Wells in North-east Kootenay, everybody knows, are certain winners. Martin has no candidates in Cariboo, Cassiar, and North and South Nanaimo, so that,it is impossible to concciye anything but absolute defeat for the Government. Promises given by Smith Curtis are worthless. This feeling is so general among visitors that the Times, if it had no other source of information, could have no doubt pf the result. Mr. Curtis is seeking support as a member of the Government two great political parties stand on; a common ground.; when these.rights of the 7pebple*yaVe;;;7attacked. v When ya LieutenahtiGovernor foists, a.-gb'verri.- tbent of- hijj own.making upon the free a'nd independent electors 6f Brifisli* Columbia, Liberals and Conservatives must stand shoulder to shoulder to teach this satrap that no such conduct will be tolerated in this province aud if their votes will strengthen the hands of the Liberal government at Ottawa in its desire to remove, from office a man who would thus disregard'the.people's rights, their votes will be cast in the right direction. ThereHs still another serious view to take of the ;situa.tion. To endorse the motley.crew who are masquerading as statesmen under; the title of the Martin government would be to tell the world that the electors of this Province have but little regard for the kind of men they.place in charge of the important work'of administering the ��� affairs of this Province. , They would simply be placing a premium on repudiation, upon wild and impracticable schemes, and they would be taking a great step forward townYds damning the business putlpok-of tiie Province.

In.'a brilliant"speech,-delivered at Nanaimo recently, Mr. Ralph Smith, president of the Dominion Trades'and Labour; Council, conclusively showed thatfeMartin was prepared to form a coalition similar to the one which he so severely condemned when Mr. Semlin |tras they'-illeged instigator. ��� Mr. Smith said :- '-.But after, the government was defeated,-,arid -Martin, was called.on to form a new government, the first thing he did was to,propose a coalition with the .same; party.

Next Saturday the electors of British Columbia iwill be called upon to decide upon matters that so far as they affect the future ��� of fhe province, are the most important that has^.ever been connected with its political; life. The electors have a serious duty to preform arid the responsibility-is no light one. There are grave issues involved. An autocratic and erratic Lieutenant-Governor wrecked the Constitution in order to place au adventurer in power. He dismissed the representatives of the people and placed in-their stead a man who represented no one but himself and represented nothing but his own ambition and thirst for vsngeance. Every vote cast on Saturday for Joseph Martin or a Martin candidate condones this travesty ou constitutional rights. Those electors who support Martinism tell the world that they have but little regard for the constitution which has been.perfected only after hundreds of years of struggle by the people.

Possibly the> most/masterly part of E. V.. Bodwell's.! great speech at Rossland dealt'with theJevil effects Martinism is having on this Province : .' "I have been a resident of British Colurribiiaforthe past 15 years^ During that period I have seen this Province rise from a state of small importance to one of no little distinction/audywith the promise'of a glorious future.5' Its course upward has been a painful journey, prosecuted amid great diffi-! culties:and beset with;many discouragements. Its record is an enduring monument to -the energy, the patient courage, the unstained; integrity; and the abiding confidence in the ultimate result to be secured by thedevelop- mentof our native wealth which has always possessed those who-have guided our; legislative; affairs, ylt is true that our public men have not always displayed the7-most ..marked talent. - Their attempts have, ..often been the: subject of very well directed criticism., Rooking back with the experience of after years-upon us we can up w see how much might ha ve been done which has been left unfinished^ We.can; understand how better-7results 7cbuld have been obtained if different methods had beeri^adopted,- ButJ -nevertheless, 'sir; the('progress' has been steadily' forward towards better things;-There never has been even a suspicion of'bad- faith-of disloyalty, to what wa s consid- ered the,best interests of the country.; And so it came to pass, sir, from year j to year, that this young, 'province was- made a place where thelaw was honored and obeyed, w-here-.the sanctity'-'of. contracts was inviolable, where property :was safe.and.investments were protected, arid it was rapidly being known as a favorite field for foreign capital to enter to exploit the great wealth of our undeveloped resources. (Applause ) But, sir, what has happened? Mr. MafHri appeared upon the scene1. iBy a fortuitous set of circumstances'a'hcl.lndt from any peculiar merit of his own he: was hoisted into a,position of. power in the government. In Ti short twelve months his efforts had nearly ruined the whole structure, which had;ibeen reared through such long years1 of patient toil. Happily his proceedings will, I believe, soon be completely stayed. Yet the marks of the destroyer will long remain, and much valuable time will be lost in the attempt to, restore that which has been so ruthlessly attacked." ,.',-. '...., JAPS AND FRENCH-CANADIANS.

Graadrient, Cape.Colony, June 4.��� The people's congress opened here today. Mr. Pretoris, member of the legislative assembly, offered a resolution declaring that in the opinion of tlie majority of the Cape Colonists the chief cause of the war was unwarranted and intolerable interference of the ministry in London in theiriterhal affairs of the .South African republics. The member speaking ^ in support' of the resolution said it "would be impossible to hold out the hand of friendship after the war, and asked: "Caii I take.an English hand that perhaps is stained with the blood of my brother?" The resolution was adopted unanimously. Another resolution presented affirmed that if the republics were ��� annexed, the peace and prosperity of the country would be irretrievably wrecked and that in order to insure lasting friendship and prosperity the ��� settlement must include the restoration of unqualified freedom and independence to the republics and the colonists be allowed a voice in the appointment of a governor of Cape Colony. A delegate was appointed to visit Great Britain, Canada and Australia to explain the views of those represented at the congress. Before the close of the people's congress, Olive Schrie.ner (Mrs. Con- wrigh) made an impressive speech in which she predicted that the South African Republics jroutd regain their independence. A. E. McEwen,the mining engineer, is examining properties in Fairview camp. vfiere is what he^saidlit in Columbia: '"The bill would be unfair to French-Canadians, and wciuld not keep Japs out of the'mines, as the Japs can learn7 to read 7 and write English in ;six months, but'it'takes -the French-Canadian^ years "-'to"* learn."

Mr. Mackintosh made a final appeal j to the electors, of the constituency in the Rossland Miner of Sunday." It wasinainly a refutation of the many falsehoods and slanders circulated against him during the'contest and k_ the interest of Mr. Smith Curtis! It is a powerful appeal, and will not be without its influence. One matter in' it will bear referring to here. After Mr.1 Mackintosh visited London to organize the company that has insured Ross- land's future, Mr. Joseph Martin wrote I��abouchere, of Truth, "warning-* him, and hoping through- : him to "warri"1 England, against . wildcat schemes,1' such as ' tlie: B.

Business Transacted at the Regular Meeting Last Night. Mayor Hardy presided at last night's council meeting, with Aldermen Galloway, Sharpe, Bannerman, Cropley and Sullivan' present. Re communications : Secretary Ehrlich of the celebration committee asked the council for the use of the streets for races on the 29th and that Friday, June 29th, be declared a public holiday. Both of these re- | quests were granted. W. C. Tilsey's bonds of $400, as required of master plumbers, were accepted. It was also agreed by the council that plumbers wishing to obtain certificates must first pass the examinations, as required of former applicants. T. M. Gulley asked the council for grades of Silver street, as he intended j erecting a building in the rear of his store and fronting on Silver street. It was decided 'that the city engineer replace stakes in alley-ways of blocks 7 and 12, and also give Mr. Gulley the frontage for Silver street. F. S. Barnard wished to know what compensation the council would give for expropriating his alley-way and frontage. The clerk was instructed to write Mr. Barnard offering him $1 per foot for land taken on Silver street. Letters from E. W. Bishop and T. J. Burns regarding the plumbing question were received and filed. ���' C. F. Alston's bill of $257 for ser- . , Of vices rendered during the month of May was put. through, and the clerk instructed to pay Mr. Alston $150 on account. . . Fire Chief Henton reported that the fire.wagon was paid for in full and that it was the desire of the fiTe department to turn the cart over to the city.; D. A. Cameron, on behalf of the. celebration committee, addressed the council asking that the council donate something towards the celebration on June 29th.; The council thought $300 sufficient and gave[that amount. The matter of laying water pipes on Gold street was next brought up, and the water works committee instructed to interview the city engineer and have the pipes laid as soon as-possible. y.B-law 47, introduced by Alderman Cropley, arid having to do with the annexation of Anaconda to Greenwood, wasread the first time. Meeting, adjourned until Wednesday night at 8.9'clock. . . LOOKING TO DENVER. To the Editor :���.-���. At a meeting of the Greenwood Trades and Eabor Council, held:Monday evening, June. 4th, a resolution was passed instructing the secretary to contradict a statement appearing in The Times of June 2nd, editorially, in regard to Chris Foley, wherein it was made to appear that Chris Foley was an alien, and therefore was1 not qualified to discuss political questions in this country. Mr. Foley is a native of this country, was born in Toronto, Ontaria, Canada, and is now and always has been a British1 subject. He has resided in Rossland for the last five years. He was sent to Denver, Colorado, the past month as a delegate from the Rossland Miners'Union to the. eight annual convention of the Western Federation of Miners, and just returned a few days sprevipus (to the Curtis rrieeting, May 28th. iin Rosslandywhere Mr. Foley is best known, he is considered very conservative and ism highly respected by business men and all classes of citizens. A reply to your anonymous cor- ���res^riderit/yoyerVthe signature "A Eovel^of "-Truths'"^ the writer had;been a lover of truth or honesty he would; riot have -attacked a fellowfcitizen ariqnyinously. Hoping [you will give this space in this columns,- ���-."��� ; , E.G. Fishbr, Sec'y Trades and Labor Council. Greenwood, June 5,1900. The Times did not state that Mr. Cnris Foley was an American. The article to which Mr. Fisher takes exception was based on Mr. Foley's con-, fessibn at the Smith Curtis meeting. He stated that he had just returned from Defaver and that he was not acquainted with the political issues of the day. We are bound to accept his first statement and all who heard Mr. Foley will heartily endorse his second. It is quite possible that Mr. Foley was born in Torsnto, but accident of birth does not control a man's good citizenship; that is regulated by his training and environment. The article in The Times was not an attack on Mr. Foley's citizenship but was for the purpose of showing what is an important point, viz that the only labor leaders who are supporting Joe Martin in this election look to Denver for instructions, while the truly loyal and patriotic British laboring man who finds in the history of his own country sufficient to direct his political course, is found fighting Martinism and for good government.

GETTING DOWN TO BUSINESS. People Went Wild With Joy at the News. CELEBRATION AT NIGHT Most Inspiring, Most Wonderful Exhibition of Enthusiasm Ever Seen Anywhere. ILondon, June 6.���England has been celebrating the.relief of Pretoria very much as they did the relief Mafeking. Drunkeuess was sli^litly less conspicuous, but after midnight the crowds became uproarious and discordant noises of every description ascended from the city streets, usually silent at this hour. All during- the evening processions marched along the Strand, Picadilly and the other leading thoroughfares. In fact, so great was the crush that the easiest method of locomotion was to join one of the processions, for whose" strident choruses and waving flags all traffic was stopped. Cabs and coaches were freely chartered in honor of the joyful occasion, aud these were soon ��� so packed with invited and uninvited guests that they assumed the. aspect of living pyramids of Bachanalians. Babies in arms, white-headed women, girls of.the street, club men in evening dress and "Whttechapel coster-mongers gaily intermingled along the flaming thoroughfares, bent on celebrating the victory. In the faces of all were continually thrust huge peacock feathers, described, for no known reason, as "Kruger's preservers." Girls were indiscriminately kissed, jostled and tossed around amidst the ecstatic jubilation of the midnight crowd. A species of confetti, which stuck to the clothes of the paraders, proved a popular form of show ing one's joy until the stores of the peddlers ran out. The night grew older and rowdyism of the worst form held sway. From almost every bar room, came sounds of inebriate attempts to sing "God.Save the Queen" and "Rule Britannia." At the music halls and .theatres last evening, the mention of L,ord Roberts at Pretoria, brought every audience to its feet in a second and it was almost impossible for the performers to hold the interest of those in front of them. Every building possessing an illt'm- inating device used it for all it was worth, until the metropolis was a blaze with light. The clubs on Pall Mall were lit up with huge torches and the staid old street murky buildings was scarcely recognised around Marlborough House. The Prince of Wales came to town yesterday afternoon, aud went to the opera in the evening. His drive to and from the performance.was marked by a tremendous welcome. The news was wired to the Queen at Balmoral immediately on its receipt and the Union Jack was hoisted on the Royal residences throughout the ~^"co"u^try^ahd*iliuminations-*occurred'-on a large scale. Effigies of Kruger were burned and innumerable telegrams of congratulations were sent to the Little Field Marshall who'had made England so happy. Lord "Wolsley received the news while visiting Mr. Henry James at Rye. He improved the occasion by at-, tending the local municipal meeting, and joined in the cablegram to Lord Roberts. The Rev. Dr. Talmage, who was shut up in the Mansion House by the density 6f the crowd after luncheon with the Lord Mayor, said to a representee of the Associated Press: " t is the most inspiring, the most wonderful exhibition of enthusiasm I have ever seen. In some respects it reminds me of the peace jubilee in Boston, at the close of the American Civil War. The Boer cause is lost. They talk of guerilla warfare.but judging from what I have learned, it scarcely seems likely that this will amount to anything." A DENIAL. -' To the Editor: The Miner of Tuesday says: "One of the most contemptible things of tlie whole campaign,' if current reports be true, is tliat a collector of votes, after taking down the names of those wishing to be registered, found out the political feelings of the electors and only sent to Rossland those pronouncedly in favor of C. H. Mackintosh." Having been instrumental in placing over half the names at present on the list, many of which "otherwise would not have been there at all, I simply wish to say that if the above refers to myself it is absolutely untrue. I did not take a single name that was not forwarded to Rossland, a statement which is easily capable of proof. R. E. Gosnei.i.. The Martin "push" have issued a map of the proposed Coast-Kootenay railway, which is so interesting in its way that The Times has no objection to giving it a free write-up. It is very much after the style of the ordinary railway imps got up for advertising- purposes, which overcomes space and physical obstacles in a remarkable way and'exaggerates the sinuosities of opposing lines. The success which has attended this effort of the premier in this instance demonstrates beyond a shadow of doubt that he would make a first-class booster for a railway system or as a townsite agent. We have no objection to referring to a few salient features in the map in question. Distance and mountain ranges have been practically eliminated. There are a few sharp curves in the line, but uot sharper than Joe has taken so frequently in his own political route in life. The way is. actually encumbered with the precious metals, which would indicate that the ties will be of silver, the rails of cop- ger and -.he cars of burnished gold. The C. P. R. line takes a tremendous detour and is labelled "scenery" from end to end. There is a train of cars extending from Ashcroft to Shuswap. The artist's idea of proportion was evidently affected by the influence.of the Martin-Cnrtis imagination, as each of the cars is at least 40 miles long. It was always understood that the C. P. R. was a wonderful line of railway, and we may reasonably anticipate a rush of travel as soon as the outside world fully appreciates the magnitude of some of its undertakings. Even if the Coast-Kootenay railway is never built, such an advertisement cannot but be of immense benefit to British Columbia. Wecmight almost conclude, if we did not know that Joe. Martin was intensely in, earnest about the proposed .railway, that he was in the pay of the C. P. R.; but we "have it on the best authority that he has some time since ceased to draw salary from that corporation. The advantages of the Coast-Kopte- nay line are admirably set forth, but they go to show that, like the proposed copper refinery, it is intended strangely enough to .benefit the Coast, for Mr. Martin says: " This railway will double the population of Vancouver and Victoria in three years." It does not so state, but it is inferred that Dunsmuir's coke-ovens will do a rushing business. In .order, however, to allay the fears of the' people of the interior, "notice" is given that "this map demonstrates' that the proposed government railway will pay from the start and REDUCE THE TAXES ENORMOUSLY." Since the project was first announced a few months ago, it has developed rapidly into definiteness. Definitetiess Mr. Curtis says, is one of the strong points in Martin's policy. The time table has not yet been published. It has been delayed for a few days, we be; lieve owing to some difficulties about arranging connections with the Great Northern road at Midway, Rossland, Nelson and Kuskanook, but all arrangements are expected to be com- ,p_leie4___X i_lg__i';k of_Juiie, or a few days later at the outsideT "His~H61ior Lieutenant-Governor Mclnnest who, it is understood from Billy, the boy orator, has been trying to resign for two years, owing to the worry and arduous duties incident to his ofliee, is to be conductor on the fast express and will have his uniform altered and cut down for the purpose. If little Willy fails to be elected in North Nanaimo he is to have charge of the through freight. T R. E. Mclnnes, private secretary, who is something of a poet, will have charge of the advertising literature. The freight and passenger rates, however, have been definitely fixed. Here is the exact schedule, but we do not know for a certainty that the margin of profit has been sufficiently guaranteed iu order that the taxes will be reduced enormously: Vancouver to Greenwood, freight rates.

(20 miles an hour) Any lingering- doubts as to the feasibility and great advantages of the i new railway will now be dispelled. I The only objection to the scheme is I that Joe Martin evidently intends to j introduce cents into this country, otherwise it would be impossible to make change out of $10. for $9.24. The people of British Columbia will exist with a government railway among them, but they wont.stand eastern coppers. He must revise the tariff or suffer defeat. THE GOVERNMENT RAILWAY. The Sunset mine is located in Similkameen district. It is a property with a large showing of rich copper ore and is likely to make a big mine. It is owned by a joint stock company, Hon. Joseph Martin and Hon. Smith Curtis being* among the principal shareholders. To develop the mine a large amount of capital will be required. In order to secure the capital it must be demonstrated that there is a ledge of good values; that the company is comprised of business men, and that the mine is likely to be reached by a railway within a reasonably short time. The Coast-Kootenay railway is supposed to pass near the Sunset. The principal shareholders .can say to the mining market of the world : " We are the premier and the minister of mines of the Province of British Columbia; we stand together as of yore, and we run the government. We want a jail- way to the Sunset and the Province will pay for it. It is rather a wild scheme, costing anywhere from $15,- 000,000 to $20,000,000, but it will be a good thing ft.r the Sunset mine and us." The scheme would / work out beautifully if it were- not for the people. They are more interested in saving the credit of the Province than they are in boosting Martin-Curtis mi-iing enterprises, and. any Sunset mine prospectus issued after June 9th cannot truthfully, proclaim the advantages of being near a railway to bev built at the expense of the Province. A gentleman writing under the nora de plume of "Anglo-Canuck" sends us for publication a column letter, in which he uses all the stock- worn Curtis arguments, dressed up a; little differently, perhaps, but still the same much-used and weak arguments. The columns of The Times are usually open to communications dealing with questions of public interest, but our space is now needed for more important matter than "Anglo-Canuck's" letter. We believe it is the duty of every newspaper having the interests of the Province at heart to do its share in securing a sound and progressive government, and consequently we can offer but little encouragement to those who are laboring under the impression that their lengthy communications will help the cause of Joseph Martin or Smith Curtis. ,. : A Monster Devil Fish Destroying its victim, is a type of Constipation.
