He ("till had the difference of 50 hcn-se power- to a.ccount for as between what the city would require during the greater part of the year and the minimum which the company ii sisted upon in Its agreement, so he asked McPhee if ho thought sufficient i;ew lights could be connected up to. tbe system to utilize the 50 horse power for which the city appeared at present tc he.ve no use.

It may be true, as he contends, that-he has the support of the "best." people of >the town; that the "best" people want light and want it' without any bother; that the bank managers aU favor the deal with the company; that no reliance cau be placed on the city engineer's estimates as to the cost of developing power on Kootenay river; that even if the city issued the debentures for tho work, they would be unsaleable; that,' taking it all in all, Nfelson can't do anything but wait until times change for the better.

The appointment of Jules de Labarthe of Trail to the superi'ntendency of the Northport smelter goes to show that young men who have gained much of their experience in Canadian mines and smelters take high rank as practical managers. Mr. de Labarthe has been assistant superintendent of th�� Trail Fmelter for some tlnie, and his work must have been very satisfactory or he would not have been selected by the new management of the Le Roi for the re-- sponsible position of superintendent of that company's .melter'at Northport Mayor Fletcher is being "put through his paces," to use a horseman's phrase, and he is not showing up well.'

', s By a Cahadian. NEW ( YORK,. October 30.���David Mills, minister of justice from Canada," has an important article in the November number of the Empire Review, says the. Tribune's London correspondent. In it how the Monroe doctrine was proclaimed .and, the Clay ton-Etui wei- treaty * .negotiated' are described in detail and the j conclusions are urawn that: the United .States government is assuming sovereignty over both Nor! h'and South- America; that it is striving to restrict the commerce of the other .states' for its own advantage- that Canada will never be content to submit to any other rule than-that of perfect'equality res- pecting^he canal, and that her interests must not be sacrificed by the United Kingdom for any consideration. Mr. Mills' contends that uie neutrality of the canal must be guaranteed as pro- -vided_f or_by- the. Clayton- Bulwer-treaty- and that the United Kingdom must not yield to the demands of what he describes as an ambitious and not overscrupulous state to erect fortifications upon the borders of a waterway and to take possession of it. The real object of this article, continues the Tribune's correspondent, is disclosed in the last seven * lines, ^in which reference is made to the fact that the United States haa taken possession of Dyeaand Skagway and has refused to submit the matter to arbitration. Mr. Mill.', dees not say so, but clearly hints that the foreign office ought to obtain a quid pro quo in Alaska, on the Canadian frontier, for tho abrogation or revision of the canal treaty.

On lie contrary, it is all but forgotten and s prized no moro than the junk of the ailroad s,crap pile. The lelic wasjiuilt t 'the Unsted State's military car, shops tJ Alexandria, Virginia, in the latter ays of the Avai. and was used by the imancipator on his visits to th**1 army of tho Potomac and to other points during tho trouble-fillet times of civic stufe. The old car is torty two feet long and eight and one-half feet wide, nd is bullet pi oof, theie being a complete armor ot bteel plate& between th"*1 wall?. Nothing remains today of the car's onginal magnificence; the inside as devoid of even a bench; the walls .aie rain stained, having'long ago lost their last trace of paint ard .amish, and -there are uo longer Aisible the co.it of arms of tho various stateb ofthe umor. avhich a skilful, hand painted upon tha ���panels of the walls. Nobody would evei imagine that rich, crimson corded silk upholstery ieaching,"half to the ceilng in parts of the'ear, once helped to make of it, the wiudowless hulk cr today, a marvel of elegance among earlier railroad equipment. Originally there was but one entiance to the car," a dor in the corner of one ���end 01 one side. Eatrarce to the then > separate 1001ns was had fiom thi"**- passageway The mir room was larger than the others, and was used by pros Silent Lincoln for an olfice and study, a.T.d also at. a leception room, in which he received ihe geaeuils of tne -vmv. It' is' safe to fcay that in this, compartment Mr. Lii'coln hastily wrote th^ _notes_for"hisT"'l,amous~spcccn'*"at_the field- of Gettysburg. At any rate the president occupied tho coach on 'his trip to ttettysbuig on that cccaston Among the cars furniture weie several leclin- jng chairs, and one paiticul_.rly lorg ,sofa for the tpccial uj-o nf the tall executive. This .sofa could oe adjusted at might into a double oed. It is not definitely known wnat became of the various articles ot furniture with the ev- 'ccption of one old fashioned chair ���which mav be .seen in the private office of the superintendent of ti asportation, Buckingham, of the Jnlon Pacific load, at Omaha Tho old, battered and ill looking hulk also carried Lincoln's remains frcm Washington to Springfield. Illinois. It was in this car that the body lay dining that memorable journov, which lasted irom April 21tst to May _hd��� 1865. In 18C6 the government auctioned a great deal of its railway n.aterlal bullr ior wai needs, and amonp the things .Was tho famous coach, which noca'ne through, pui chase the property of president Sidney lMlon, of ihe Union Pacific Railway who immediately removed .it to Omaha. Por .some time it was used as a directors car, but it. great i weight caused by the armor piate, made it objectionable, and it was' withdrawn from the service, standing for j ears under a shed constructed' for its custody. Thero was talk m J.89S ^f inaugurating a movement among the B,colored population of che United* States with a view of seeming funds with which to purchase the car, restore it and to piovide for it a suitable building in Washington, where it might be preserved. Nothing, however, came of tho idea. by no neans, reconcile himself to ,soli- tary living. Vop eight years he persistently and va nly sc ught her in every corner of' the continent Their home had been in Ottajva . _ Having no means o'f his own ho had to search and (tarn his living at the same time, wtll.mg from town to town, doing odd jobs in .each for food and shelter, saving eveiy penny ho could make aid spare' He searched every likely place in Noith America, and then went over to Ei.gland, where his wife liad been<born and where her relatives lived. / There ho pickul up tidings which tcok him to Nch) Zealand the moment he had money enough to pay his passage there. He resolutely lefu.ed to believe tne ..as dead, aud set pari for New' Zealand fully convinced that he would find his aged wife theie. Whether ho did or l.ot is not Known. Nearly twenty yecrs'jfigo a Bristol merchant quanciled witn Lis wife, whe left him He was" inconsolable, and having a su.picion that" she had gone, to Melbourne he sai led'for Australia. But he failed ���to find his wife there, and. searc Lir g foi a living he drifted to 'the Au&ti-?iaii ��?old fields. There, after many "mont'is'^Ol" apparently hopeless labor, he met with success, and having stayed long enough to j consolidate ms good foi tune* ho went hack to Melbourne, v here the idpidly made a for t"ne. In ^the meantime ,he had vainly ad- vcitised m all parts of the world for, his wife. He returned to, England anr". searched in eveiy.- ^direction. Prom England he carre, to ('America, and he searcned both north, and south. From theie he went to South Africa, throng1! eveiy district in which the English tongue wa'i spoken .But nowhere could he. find a tiace'fof the woman and only after nearly eight ''ycais' incessant' seaich he came to" the conclusion his wife niuslj.be dead. - A joung French,politician-, who possessed -a considerable fortune fell in lo\o with a 'lady he paw at a Paria picture gallery. * Judging by appearances j.nd cne or two sentences'-he overheard Jier^-utler.^hpweyer.^lie^guossed-she-was- the dfaughter of a Frenchman holding a good pcsition under the government. He searched Paris for her, employing private n��*]uiry agents to assist him but all they were able to discover was that she had left Paris a few days later. ^ Spies weie sent^put all over Franc3, but the lady was^not found. Finally, after more "than two years of weary tiavel and patient' labor he found the lady iri* Madagascar, where her father was a' military officpr Whether it never struck this susceptible gentleman that the lady might be already married it is impossible to i.ay.

While there will be some additions to the roll of cardinals it is certain that none of these-will be from the United States. The full roll of cardinals is lixed at seventy and tbe pontifical desire is to have as many of them as possible near Rome. The real reason for avoiding the naming of another cardinal for this country during cardinal Gibbon's life time is to avoid setting a precedent for two car-' dinals within (he United States. 1'nere are more than one, however, within countries in which there i& a concordiat between the government and the church. There is no, indication yet as to who will be cardinal Martinelli's successor. Even the gossip at Rome that Monsignor Falconi, new Muncio at Ottawa, would be chosen has at least for the present subsided. It is significant in this connection that tho selection of both cardinals Sat- olli and' Martinelli were practically compete surprises to those wjio had been figuring on the vacancies to which they wero chosen.

Akehurst in Fraternity Hall last ovening by the members of the Sons of England and the members of the congregation of St. Sa.iour's church was very flattering to tho retiring rector. The feature of the evening was the presentation to the rector by the Sons of England of a beautifully illuminated address and a handsome, brass clock arid candlesticks. The address was the work of P. Shonfeld and was ' read by Fred Starkey on behalf of the society. Following this presentation, H. E." Croasdaile, in a few well chosen remarks, presented Mr. Akehurst with a well-filled purse as the gift of the members of the congregation. In acknowledging the presentations Mr. Akehurst said: "I am sure you will not expect very much from me upon an occasion of this kind. So far I have not been able to think very much upon the prospect of leaving Nelson, because it has been too painful. I may say this p^igting was not necessary to assure me that* h$d the sympathy and best wishes of ia great' pi^Jiy of the people of Nelson.

Buller's Dispatch to White. LONDON, October SO.—The National .Review givet the essential terms Qf the "spatchcocked- dispatch of sir Reavers Buller tt« ffcner«-l George White when in command of the beleaguered British garrison at Ladysmith. According to this unthority the message ran 0? follows: <*i jiave been rep«i»««\, You will burn J'tmr coppers ana destroy all your arppiiijiltion, You will make the best terpis yon pan with the Boers after I have fortified mybelf on tHi» Twg«la." General Buller, in tho M.ee?n W},ieh led to big dismissal from the command of the first Army Corps, challenged the National Review to publish the complete dispatch and to explain how it was obtained, deilaring that he would "then publish ft peptiflo4 qopy of thfj original and allow the PUblJc tfi jU<.ge the matter. The editor pf the Rational Review now explaine that he goi; the aispatoh from a civilian who was in Ladysmith at the time and who said there was nothing secret about it, He,asserts, also, that he understands that both general Buller and general White have officially asked P-,rniis3ion to : publish ;tho authorized version and he cannot conceive why permission has been withheld, The said informant, giving an alleged explanation of the fact.that there waB no co-operation between general Buller and general White during the battle of Colenso, says generalWhite was informed that the attack was fixed for December 17th, but general Buller commenced the attack December 15th, to the dismay of general White who had not completed his preparations. ; The Papal Consistory.

WASHINGTON, Octooer, 30.—Admiral Dewey has resigned the presidency of the Metropolitan Club because of the criticisms made by some of its members on the * Schley court of inquiry.? It tis believed ,the board of governors will endeavor to have him withdraw it, but frieids-of ihe admiral-say-he is deter- :nii ed not to do so. The faun found with the court,is .that its rulinn-'are unduly favorable to admiral Scheiy, -'and that it's • members were "prejudiced in favor of tho hero of • Santiago. * The criticism was .aimed mainly'at admiral 'Dewey/ although admirals Benham and Ramsey'also came in for a share"'of it. The report was lhat admiral Dewey-had also resigned his membership m the club, but this proved incorrect.,The Metropolitan Club is teh most exclusive organi- zbtion of its kind-in the city. It has on its rolls the names of all t^ie more prominent army and- navy officers and most of the high civil oflicials.of the government.

Title | The Nelson Tribune |
Publisher | Nelson, B.C. : Tribune Publishing Company |
Date Issued | 1901-10-31 |
Description | The Tribune was published in Nelson, in the Central Kootenay region of southeastern British Columbia, and ran from November 1892 to November 1905. The Tribune was published and edited by John Houston, an outspoken journalist who would later embark on a successful political career, which included four terms as the mayor of Nelson and two terms in the provincial legislature. Houston had established the Miner in Nelson in 1890, and, after leaving the Miner in the summer of 1892, he established the Tribune to compete with his former paper. In August 1901, the title of the paper was changed to the Nelson Tribune. |
