When men come Irom Spokane to secure options on business property in Cranbrook it looks as if they appreciated the value of the Corbln road to this town. When one reads of the thousands 1 .lied in the conflict between the Russian and Japanese armies they can readily believe the statement made by General Sherman that "War IsHell." The Herald will pay a live dollar note lor the best answer to the ipics- tion: "What is the matter with liiit- wb Columbia'.'" This is a province that should be ome of lhe most prosperous in the Dominion. Hul it is not. Today it is virtually bankrupt. The government are scheming light and day In make hoth ends nert. There is something radically wron-r. What i.s It? That is what the Herald would like to know. Any communication will receive due consideration and be published if the language is couched iu the proper terms. The work of cleaning out the town of pimps and hop fiends should go i n. It is said that regular opium joints are run in the town antl that they are patronized by white men and women regularly. It is an easy matter to atop that kind of a thing.

Thoy are a curse to the community. Melp Constable Morris in his work. It Is to tbe interest of every other element that this class should be forced lu leave. The will of Leroy Sage is the lirst bequest In Cranbrook for public charity. Mr. Sage was a man with a lug heart during life, and he desired to do what be could with Ins property for the alleviation of dUiress. His will provided ihat his just dehls ■hould be paid and that what was left oi his property should be held in trust for the benefit of the deserving needy Mr. Sage at the time of his death was not a rich man, but he had his store property and a stock of goods worth some money. The Herald trusts that the sum thus contributed by Mr. Sage may be the means of ,!oing good. if so his soul will rest in peace, for his great desire to do \_ooA will meet with fulfillment. The Herald has one desire, and one hope, and that is the advancement of Cranbrook and South East Knotem.7. The meeting of the board ..f trade last evening is an augury of better times in Cranbrook. It gave evidence of increased interest in the alT-iirs of the town. The Herald wants tu see meetings of the board attended by •very property owner in town ami iv- 1HFFICTI.T TO SETTLE. Victoria Times*. The government is still fciiippling wiih the question of railway legislation, it is safe to say however, tliat a solution is no nea'f than it was this time week. In fact there are reasons for believing that lhe premier is more perplexed .*0W over the quest ion than he was a week ago. A caucus was held Monday night, and the Conservative members will iin into consultation again this evcni.ijj in the hope ol arriving at a settlement, While the announcement is generally made that there will have to be some railway legislation introduced, some government supporters de spair of reaching a decision. The various elements will not agree upon any line of action. F. M. Holland is still pressing ff r recognition for ai least fill miles of his Kettle Valley line to Franklyn camp. Several members who are in teres tod in the building ol a Coast Kootenay line seem prepared lo saw the rival Coast-Kootenay lines, oil on this, and consequent ly McLean Hros. and John Hendry, representing somewhat less active. Mr. Pollen, of the Kootenay Central, who has secured the necessary capital for the Kootenay Central, is yet in the cily urging the claims of his line to some aid, either by guarantee or laud grant. 0. W. I). Clifford's pet scheme, the Pacific Northern A Umitieea, is ;.lso asking for recognition. This line Is now prepared to transform the $5,000 a mile grant into a laud subsidy. For the 150 miles from Kitiinaat to Ha* zleton there is asked 15,000 acres mile. In accepting this the company agrees to begin work by June, and to have the line complete in two year Furthermore the land within the grant is to be open to settlement on the very same terms as government land is pre-empted. The laud is lot to be exempt from any taxation, now ever. The Grand Trunk Pacific officials are also said lo have become more pressing for a decision as to whether their company is to get a land giant J, S. Dennis, of the C. P. It., has spent several days in the city endeavoring to arrive at a settlement with respect to the land grant to the Columbia A Western line. Mr. Don nis wants land to take the place ol the blocks cancelled by the famuli: bill 10, introduced by Col. Prior': government. According to the terms of the agreement between the comp. uy aud the government the section of tin- road from Midway to Pen tic ion was to be built before the land grant should he made for the section built to Midway. This was over-ridden when blocks 4503 and -150-1 were given. The C. P. H., it is said, demand that a settlement shall be made some manner by the government. Regular conferences have been held with the premier in arriving at some scheme. DEATH OF LEROY SAGE. On the 9th of this month, at the hospital in Spokane, Leroy Sage, of Cranbrook, died of liver complaint, after a lingering illness of four months. The remains were brought back to Cranbrook on Tuesday by James Greer, who went to Spokane for that purpose, and rthe funeral was held Tuesday afternoon at the late residence of tbe deceased, at 4 o'clock Hev. Thompson, of the Methodist church, officiating. The services were brief and were attended by many of the friends ol the deceased. Tbe remains were interred in the Cranbrook cemetery. J. Manning, J. P. Fink, W. T. Keid, F. Godderies, F. E. Simpson and G. H. Hremner acted as pall hearers. Leroy Sage was a Cranbrook pioneer. He was born in Kentucky about 50 years ago and aside from a sister, whom he had not seen for over twenty years, he had mi close relatives. He moved from Montana to Wardner in the early days of that town and had a hard struggle there for a year or more. Finally he got on his feet and from that time to his death he prospered. When Cranbrook was giving promise oi being a town Mr, Sage came here and built the building in which he carried on bis business up to the last. Starting in modestly in a few years he carried quite a large stock and had worked up a big business in the secondhand line, other arrangements are made all probability permanently. aud in HEV.

One writes—"1 told my grocer, Mr.-—, that I would buy 'Royal Household * regularly if he would always keep it on hand, but he said he wouldn't take on another brand of flour until he was obliged to." Another says—"My grocer is an 'old logic' and never gets the newest or the best things until the year after." A third says—"We haven't an enterprising grocer in our town and are obliged to send t0 -'o'" 'Royal Household' or take a poorer hour." Write dirert to Og'ilvie's. If you can't get "Royal Household" from your grocer, write to us direct—we will immediate^ give vou the name of the nearest grocer who keeps "Royal Household" and send you also the "Royal Household" recipes. There is no good reason why your grocer should compel you to use inferior flour—no lirst cla^s grocer will hesitate to order "Royal Household" ibr you, and even the smallest dealer will get it if you insist upon it.

The arrival ot these boats from Jennings, Monl.. was a great event those days. Koi t Steele was the only village iu lhe country at that lime aud people were llockiug iu there to wait for the railroad, whieh was lo open up and develop this part of il.e world. At that time there were no women between Kort Steele antl Nelson, although before fall tbere were several. The Cranhrook house was built that fall and Irom its door nothing could be seen, with the exception of Col. Baiter's bouse, but a vast stretch of prairie with a background of beautiful rock les. I drove over from Steele very often that summer and one would need to slretch One's Imagination a wee bit when they were told that the depot was to le built over there, and the hotels over there, and such a man had purchased such lots and so on, as an huudred acres of tbe towuslte wan a Held o( oats, and there were a good many more acres ol hay upon the low places. Mr. Ilaket informed me that he realized $U,000 from his hay and oats that year. The price ol provisions was very high those days in Kort Stifle. Flour $16 a barrel, eggs 75 cents a dozrn, butter B0 cents a pound, oil 75 cents per gallon, and so forth. However, there was plenty ol work and good wages. The roads were something awful. Tbe stage made trips from Kalispel, Mont., and from Golden, B. C, 1G0 miles either way, and no choice of roads. Accidents happened very often. On one trip tlie stage coming in from Golden was overturned and a man by the name of James Brady had two ribs fractured and his arm broken. This happened far away from habitation and a messenger had to be sent hack to Golden for help, a distance of 50 miles. The passengers had to camp for the night to wait for the return of the messenger and the horses. "I novor will forget a trip I took that winter over what was called the tote road from Swansea :i tho hiding at Ktisliauook. I was going to California for the winter. This road which was const* toted to n» »■*5 supplies (or men woraing ai thu tu.i.cl and |tong the line, was Very t.aiiow ti trips. The passengers were all safely landed. This steamer was afterward raised and repaired. "What a change when next I saw Cranbrook. Well, it was wonderful, The printing office, C, P. 11. store house, hardware store, drug store, and the store now occupied hy Mr. McDermot had been built and lumber was on the ground everywhere for new buildings. This was In May. The first Herald is dated March 22, r-nd from its pages the first artiele we ste is headed "Beaut If 111 Cranbrook." In glowing terms it tell us of the ideal spot that nature has intended for lhc building of a large city. It tells ns that O. H. Miner is about to start up in the hardware business and Mr. Beattie in the drug business. It tells of Mrs. Donahue in her East Kootenay hotel and dwells upon her splendid cooking. It tells us of lhc Cranbrook Lumber company and its well equipped plant. It tells of the first religions services held in the dining room of the East Kootenay hotel. J. G. Duncan preached to a large congregation, population considered. Some writers have staled lli.tt Rev. Mr. Ball preached lhc first sermon in Cranhrook but such is not the case. Another minister by the name of Oliver preached here several times that summer before Mr. .tall came. "There are five advertisements in this paper, the two hotels and hardware store already mentioned, J. II. Sibbald, contractor, G, L. Milliard, blacksmith. There were live ladies here at that time, Mrs. Angus Morrison, Mrs. Donahue, Mrs. R. L. Pratt, Miss Lizzie McPI.cc and Mrs. Eyre. This paper says that Mr. Sili-bald intends starting a dairy but hesitates on account of cows.He says, however, that with the fine quantities of good spring water here two or three cows would easily give a barrel of milk. The next paper tells of the paymaster passing through town accompanied by mounted police. People who carried money those days had to be careful or they would lose both money and life, as there was aboui 2,'ion men working upon the railroad along the line. A paper of May loth tells It was not built for the traveling 0( iIr* MeMullin starting a bakery and June 7th Mr. ami Mrs. Ey I restaurant and the Leiteh Bathers a gents' furnishing store 011 Baker street. This paper speaks of deer destroying a garden two miles out of 1 town. April 20tli the first show was held in Leiteh Brothers opera house, a wandering minstrel and wife gave a musicals. "June 11th we hear of the building of the Commercial or Manitoba hotel and it says 'that it will be the finest in the Kootenays, the front in particular will be quite attractive, ' having two mammoth bay windows in each side of lhe second story. The interior will be furnished in flrstclass j style. About this time T. A. Oreigh- tou slat ted in the retail grocery business iu lhc store now occupied by Morrow A .McFarlane, and L. B. Van Decar built the building now owned by the Bank of Commerce. The soiling of this building lo the Hank of Commerce was the first house and lot sold in Cranbrook. "July liiih excavating for tho cellar of the Cosmopolitan hotel was begun. "July 26th town lots iu Elko are put on the market. The paper says, 'some want gold, some want silver, and all want lots in Elko. Choice business lots, 30x100 feet, w(th 20 foot alley, from $50 to $11)0 a lot.' A paper of August 4th tells us that the Leiteh Brothers have sold their gents' furnishing business lo Reid A Co. of Wardner and Moyie. "August 18th Rev. Cattanach, representing the Methodist church ol Canada, held services in the Commercial, that is the Manitoba hotel, and he secured the promise of a lot lor building a church. "Ou Saturday afternoon, August 23rd, at three o'clock, the lirsi train Of cars passed over the Kootenay liver at Wardner. Conductor Lock heart had charge of the train, Hugh Brock was at the throttle, Fireman Campbell was at the furnace, and in the cab were Hugh Council and F. Iv Simpson. "The steel was laid inlo Cranbrook on August 23rd. After this date the growth of our town was rapid. No more long boat rides, tedious, lire- some and dangerous drives lu old lumbering stages. Hereafter we can make our trips in comfort and case, rolling over the country in Pullmans. But not quite yet, lor our lirst cats were box cars with slat seats and the trains were something after the 1'in- negan style, 'off again, on again, gone again,1 and as the cars did not go down to the boat at the landing there was a long walk from the cars lo the boat. I have copied from lhe Herald one man's experience coming over from Nelson to Cranhrook. lie says: "The boat lands the passengers on the trestle that is built across the swamp and lower end of the lake. There is an incline of about 50 feet, then there i.s a walk of about a mile across the bridge. To a tight rope walker this trip might be a pleasure, but to ordinary mortals it's a different proposition. Sometimes . the ties were in position, some till they were not. If not you had to take to the stringers and with satchel in one hand and air tn the other ynu had to do the best you could, as failure meant a ducking or worse yet, broken limbs, so we hob- hied hopped and crawled until land was reached.' "K. E, Simpson, Who had been en- til this time at Wardner in the news* paper business, eame to Cunhrouk to lake personal charge o| iho lleial.f, having done only editorial work un the paper up to that time. H- T. Brown, ui Spokane, was In partnership with Mr, Simpson for two years. They edited both the International of W.irdurt and Herald of Cranbiouk. "August 21th, in a car stationed in the north part of town, a girl baby was born to Air. and Mrs.Turnbtitl, This was Cranbrook's first baby ami L. A. Hamilton aud Col. Baker presented the mother a deed to a lot as a gift to the child who first saw the the light of day iu Cranbrook. This lot is in block in. "September 1st the following items appear in the Herald: 'The Rev. C. W. Gordon, of St. Stephens churh, Winnipeg, who is ou a missionary trip through East and West Kootenay will preach In Cranhrook on Sabbath next in the Hank of Commerce morco building.' This is the celebrated Ralph Conner,' who was gathering information for his hooks. This paper tells of an open- air service being held upon a street comer while within a block au Indian horse race held full sway. "September 29th Rev. Ball arrived to take charge ol thu Presbyterian church services which were being held In the Perdue block. Our first Thanksgiving service was held in that block, Hev. Ball preaching. The Presbyterian church was dedicated December Uth. Rev. Robert Frew of Nelson, preached the sermon. "The church of England was opened January 12th antl the Rev. Henry Ir- vin (Father Pat) ol Rossland, delivered the sermon. The lirst death was .Mrs. Anna Brown, who died ol pneumonia in a (Mt. "Our first bride waa Mrs. John Hutchinson. "Our first school teacher was Mies Maud Kcay. "Ot our first church entertainment there are onlj^lhreo In town now who look part In the program. "Ou tho 15th of December Mr. .McFarlane established ihe first baths here. No account i.s given as to whether anyone had taken a bath up to this time or not. "Bert VanDecar owned the first milk wagon, which consisted ol a cart and milk can drawn by a dog. "This takes us through the first year of Cranhrook. It did not take much to make us happy those days- Calls were not formal. We did not need cards. Our parlors were not elegant, nor our china rare, hut good ill and kindly feeling prevailed. Strangers were welcomed and altogether we were a happy people. Many who were with us then have gone r,j foreign lands, many have passed over the great divide, and some arc here tonight. "The building of a new town .vith its ever changing population reminds one of Longfellow's beautiful lines: 'Ships that pass In the night ;>nJ speak each other in passing, Only a signal shown and a distant voice in the darkness, So on the ocean of life, we pass and speak one another, Only a look and a voice, then darkness again and a silence'.'1 W.

This tipple ..was the largest in the wUt. 1 I strotehes from the north to tdc south side ef the val-ey, and was in reality an immense bridge about thirty feet wide and mill to 1000 feet long. All tin tracks leading into the three mlin - crossed it. There was siding ''nam for some lniutlieds of loaded anil empty ears. Connected with it was all the cosily and extensive planl for sorting and cleaning the coal, con* slstlng ot' elevators, belts, hoppers, etc. All ibis is completely destroy ed, and even if tlio lumber pan ol ihe struct tiro can be replaced and temporary arrangements made fm loading, il will lake at least six months to procure duplicates ol the eoillpliiatfil m.o-liim'Tv ami have ii set tip. Unfortunately this tlnees not i iver cover the fid; extent ol the disaster. The splendid power house containing lhc dynamos whicli furnished all the power lo operate tbe hauling ainUut- ling nf the coal, the lighting ol Ihjo mines and the pumping oi Water i.,.iu lowei' workings lifts fallen a victim lo the names. Except for the work ol repairing the damage, this will nnl ,- tunately mean the almost entire !*'.s- ing of Coal Creek mines until the new tipple akd power bouse can he ion- structed. Fortunately tho trade can be supplied from the Michel nud Mui- risscy mines, and it is the Intent! m of the company lo find wmk for Ihe Coal Creek miners at those points. After their long series of-disasters, this, one of the heaviest financially, is greatly to be regret ted. The total loss will exceed $300,001., not taking into .consideration lho Indirect losses resulting from enforced idleness. -0— A WORD OF PRAISE.
