With this rapid consumption, who is there can say what the future of stumpage, so advantageously situated as ours is may he within the next tew years? This subject is so wide, so all comprehensive, so seductive, that I must of necessity adhere ii> my written manuscript, otherwise I might nc led into ibe unpardonable sin of violating your thirty-minute rule. I will, therefore, plunge at once into the center of my subject— mines, fisheries, agriculture, lumbering—the profitable aud permanent exploitation nf which gives rise to many varied and serious problems, witb whicli tbe political leaders of this province must of necessity grapple. The one greal central fact (0 which youi ai tent ion cannot be too often drawn is that thc development ol each and every one of them depends upon something else.

But the facl is that water In the places where it is wanted in the province Is none too abundant, and tbat elsewhere lhe amount is ov.i-plentiful— for the time being only—simply because our population is not yet large enough hi make use of it. According to tbe expert of the Dominion governmenl, we hove harnessed less than 4 per cent of the obviously available power, while another rmscrvatlve estimate plnces the figures at less than one per cent.

This was the first important notion which was tried before Mr. Justice Clement unit a jury at Nelson, pertaining to a disastrous fire during the season of 1910 which destroyed thc limits of the King Lumber Mills, Limited, ut Vahk. The estimate of Hn* damages is In the neighborhood ol $140,000.00. The question of liability alone was determined in the notion, their being reference us to the actual amount of daiiiai**es sustained hy the plaintiffs to be fixed hy, thu court should tlie parlies not be able lo agree. Tbe action was commenced on the 1 ;it h of February and was continued until lho 28rd, when a verdict was returned for the plaintiffs. The plaintiffs called in all iu the neighborhood of twenty witnesses while the defendants called some thirty-two witnesses. The jury found that the fire commenced on the right-of-way oi the .defendant company. They also found that the defendants bad notice through their section foreman that, the fire was burning on the right-of- way and also that thc defendants, after receiving notice, did not take sufficient precautions to prevent the escape of thc fire. There was no actual finding by the jury as to whether the fire came from a locomotive of tho company, nor did tho jury find that thc defendants had proper appliances tor the prevention of the escape ot sparks. The verdict for the plaintiffs was based on tbe fact of the fire having commenced on the right- of-way; tbc company having notice of the said fire and not taking steps to extinguish same. The jury further found negligence oa the part of the railway company in not maintaining a clean right-of-way. The fire which the plaintiffs complained of commenced on the right-of- way on the 4th day of July, 1910, bul did nol destroy the timber limits until the -Hs-t day of July, the plain- t111 showing that tbc same fire hadi not iKtn extinguished and bad blown up on 'be Hist of July, causing the damage. The defendant company contended: Firstly, that the fire did not commence on the right-of-way on July Ith, hui commenced adjacent to the right-of-way on or about the 8th of July. They also contended that the fire which destroyed the King limits was known as the Cur- zon fire, which swept from the west and up Meadow Creek. Thc jury, however, found that the original iin; o July Ith was the cause ol tlie groat lire. The following counsel appeared in the action: For the plaintiffs, tht her Mills, Limited: Mr, lor, K.C, and Mr. M. A. of Vancouver. B.C., ami Macduvtald, of Cranbrook, Fi i the defendants; tbe Canadian Pacific Railway Company: Mr. E. I'. Davis, K.C, und Mr. .1. 1* of Vancouver, B.C., aiid Gurd, of Cranhrook, 11 C. King Lum* s. s. Tay- Hacdonald, Mr. A. II. McMulten Mr. VV. F. Nelson, II. C, Feb. 28.—The semiannual meeting of the Presbytery of, Kootenay met at the assembly room' of the V.M.C.A. yesterday. Rev. C. 0. Main's resignation of Knox church, Cranhrook, was presented. Mr. Laurie, of Cranhrook,1 appealed in feeling terms on behalf ol Knox church. The presbytery with great regret accepted Rev. Mr. Main's resignation. Rev. Main believed the invitation to Vernon a call from God and reluctantly concurred in the resignation. A committee was appointed to draft an expression rf the Presbytery in appreciation of Rev. Main. Rev. IL R. Grant was appointed interim moderator ot the Cranhrook i congregation and was asked to preach there tm March ll>th and declare the pulpit vacant, lie was also given powers to moderate In a call as soon as tbe people had agreed, upan a successor to Mr. Main. | Among other business transacted was the uniting of Phoenix ami Greenwood into one congrcgal Ion with the happy prospect in view of soon having Rev. Mr. Munroe as the pastor. i The question of systematic giving presented hy Capt. McMorrts brought forth much discussion. The concensus of opinion was that this presbytery's share of the JltHI.OUO budget, lately issued by the chirch, was tco much. Presbyterians'm Kootenay to meet this budget are asked to increase their donations to the schemes of the church about one hundred per ccnt. This is considered a heavy burden, especially in Fast Kootenay, where depressing labor conditions at present prevail. A committee was appointed to ileal wilb the whole question and to report at a later sederunt, in view of tho great need of ministers throughout this growing country tlu- question of securing ministers large in number and large iu calibre brought ' forth cutisiderable interest as to methods for securing and training recruits, At the present rate of loss il was estimated tbat six hundred men were lost to the church during tlie last five years Itecause ul the small remuneration received. A call to Rossland in favor of Rev, Mr. Sarkissian was sustained and placed in his bauds tor consideration. Mr. Sarkissian asked for lime to consider the matter. Provisional ar- langements were math1 for Induction lo take place on April 3 at K p.m. There were present Rev. S. H. Sarkissian, of Creslou; Rev. G. A. Hackney, of Trail, Rev, C. 0.

The Ernest Gamble Concert company has been called "small numerically, but bit; artistically." It is a trio of artists, and the entertainment is a musical treat, the combination ot piano, violin and voice 1*niit| unite ideal. The selections Were from the classics, the work ut the company lying on a lofty plane ol artistic endeavor, but at no time was the performance over the heads ol ihe large audience. "Not so popular as tu be musically cheap, and not so severely classical as not to be popular," as a leading musical critic has saitl of the Gambit Concerl company's music. Mr. Ernest Gamble 1ms a basso can tantc voice ot wonderful depth nnd sweetness, nnd his well chosen selections are treated wilb consummate art nml rare skill. He was heard to especial advantage last evening in a quaint old Irish tunc, "The Stuttering Lovers" (Herbert Hughes) and ga\e a magnilicenl rendition ot GoU- nod's Vulcan's Aria from "Philemon nnd Baucis." Miss Verna Leona Page, the concert violinist of iht* company, plays with a charm nnd sympathy that reaches the audience at once. Her playing is one of Intelligent interpretations rather than a display ol wonderful technique. Edward M. Sbonert, the pianist and accompanist, is a really bit; player. His .style has the breadth and his conception the masterfulness of the real artist and bis interpretations nre Interesting to every class ol lislener. The recital as a whole was one ot the best in the series of concerts under auspices ol tin- Santa Fo Reading Room dub. This attraction will he at the Auditorium March 8th.
