FULL DELEGATION Will Be Sent by Nelson to Convention TO ALL CONSERVATIVES Mass Meeting Saturday Night Will Be Opec to All Who Favor Policy oi the Party. The Conservatives of Nelson will meet in Miners' Union hall Saturday evening at 8.30 to elect delegates to represent the parly in this provincial riding at the provincial convention to he held in Vancouver on Friday and Saturday of next week. The Conservative party is not a close corporation. While the meeting has been arranged by tbe executive of tbe Conservative Association, and will be held under the auspices of that association, all Conservatives, in Xelson and all who intend to support tbe Conservative party in Dominion politics, are invited to attend . to take part in any discussions, and to vote for the election of delegates. ' According to the plans drawn up for tht.* conduct of the convention, there will be no voting by proxy. Only delegates duly accredited and attending may exercise their rights in deciding on resolutions to be adopted and officers to be elected. It is important in the Interest of the Conservative party as a whole, as well as In their own, that tbe numbers of the pany in the interior be fully represented. Reports from other ridings of Kootenay and Yale indicate that full delegations will be sent from all. Nelson cannot afford to do less. The usual convention rates have been granted by the railways, single lare to all convention delegates and their wives, provided that at least a bundled delegatus are in attendance, a provision that is certain to be met. Attendance at and support to the necessary conventions of the party are duties that Conservatives owe to their country as well as to their party. That the convention may be truly represents tlve of all that is beat in the party throughout the province, careful selection should be made in each riding. British Columbia is overwhelmingly Conservative. There are no elements of disunion in the p.irty. Tho people generally have come to a realization ol the fact that the Interest* of Canada, and especially of the West, will be best .served by that party which is blstori cally the champion of development, progress and unity. The sentiments and ideals of ttritish Columbia are very poorly represented by its present delegation at Ottawa. They owed their election in 1904 not to their individual characters or abilities u����r to any general confidence in the polio? or admlnletratlon of sir Wilfrid l.uuiier, but almost entirely W> tlu hick of organization among Cons* rva lives. This condition cannot be allowed to endure. British Columbia must send to Ottawa men with knowledge of and sympathy with its needs, the ability to express them in the parliament of tbe Dominion und conupflnd consideration Tor thetn. To attain that end efficient organisation Is essential, and the Conservatives of Nelson must do their share. Alabama, Arkansas, Florida.

BRITISIHREMIER Aiiubk of Heart Failure After Speaking DOHA IS CONSERVATIVE Russian Parliament Opened���Patriotic Demonstration by Majority��� Socialists Silent. St. Petersburg. Nov. 14.���The third Russian parliament was opened In the Tauride Palace this morning in the prcsiiiice of Premier Stnlypfn and the cabinet, by Mr. Golelmff, vice president of the council of the empire. The "religious service bore preceding the opening was conducted by the Metropolitan Antolous and a large number of bishops and other high ecclesiastics, was made the occasion for a great display of patriotic enthusiasm on the part of the Conservatives and mod"rn members. The national hymn was repeatedly sung and the empeior was vigorously cheered. Tbe city is quiet. A few hundred students gathered In tho vicinity of the palace but did not attempt to make a demonstration. The only discordant note was struck hy the Social Democrats, who remained in the committee room during the read ing of the emperor's greeting and entered the main hall only when It was necessary to sign the oath. The constitutional Democrats showed no marked enthusiasm in singing the national hymn or in the cheering but otherwise the participated decotirously in the proceed! nga. M. Khomyakoff. Octoberist, was elected president of the house, receiving 371 votes on the first ballot. M. C-olubeff's speech in opening the parliament was as follows: "His Majesty the emperor has charged mo with the high duty to bid the members of tho third Douma welcome tn his name and he implores God's blessing on the work before us, of establishing peac in our beloved fatherland and of promoting the enlightenment and well being of the people, of consolidating the new state organization and of strengthening the great and indivisible Russian empire." The ceremony of opening parliament was simple. M. Golubeff, accompanied by S"cretary of the Kmnire Baron Cokell de Gyldenband. mounted the tribune, invited the members to rise, and road, the Imperial ukase convoUlm: the parliament and a brief greeting from the emperor.

Sir Htnry Caiiipbell-Bannerman, after addressing a ixilltical meeting, was seized with sudden illness last night at the residence here of William Howell Davis, Liberal member of parliament for South Bristol. Doctors attended the sufferer for hours and although the sharpness of the attack hud ceased, the premier's comlltlou is such that London doctors havo been summoned. Heart trouble ls believed to be the cause of the illness. Sir Henry Campbeli-Bannerman, prime minister and llrst lord of the treasury since 1S05, was born in 1836. Bristol, Nov. 14.���Later it was announced that the premier's sudden illness was due to a severe spasm of Uie heart which gradually was relieved by restoratives. He was progressing favorably this afternoon. At one time during the night the premier's condition created the gravest alarm. Mr. Hlrrell who also Is at Bristol, was hastily summoned to see his chief. Oxygen was administered and relief was obtained. The doctors staled this afternoon that the premier was out of danger. ALASKA REPUBLICANS. Advocate Home Rule for and Endorse Roosevelt.

Lowery, however, rel'used to accept freedom up on these terms and carried his case to the court of appeals which not only quashed conviction but refused to grain tho magistrate ap order of protection Seattle. Nov. 14.���The latest advices from Alaska prophesy a lively time at the Republican territorial convention which meets at Juneau today to elect six delegates and six alternates to the Republican national convention of 1H08. lt is intimated that Governor W. B. lloggatt will meet with violent opposition in tho convention., The delegates from the Nome and Fairbanks districts go to the convention pledged to home rule for Alaska .ind unalterably opivosed to the policy or Gov. Hoggatt, who maintains that the territory does not want self-government. Another feature of the convention is the probability thnt not only will It indorse President Roosevelt for a third term, but it will also. If permitted send. its delegates to the national convention with Roosevelt instructions. Thero Is no doubt that tho convention will indorse Tom C'nle, the nonpartisan present delegate to Congress, and! pledge him com Inued support. There is also some talk that Cale will be selected as one of the delegates to the national eon-rentloti, although his irlends are desirous that he keep free fiom any political alliance for the reason that he was elected to his present sent by all'parties combined.

In many count ii. vbj ious safeguanls have been attempted to j.revent mombers of liic legislature*. from becoming in effect tlie paid s. i vanLs of the govern,neiil nl the day. Can ada years ago passed an Independ. no of Parliament Act. which declares II unlawful for a iii.ii.i.ei i.i parliament Li accept an appointment to office during tlie term <>f parliament tor which he has been elected.

WALKER JEV\ELEk A!\D OPTICIAN sent to parliament to guard the public Interests, lie has not been there long when his independence is impaired by the intimation that the government has valuable positions in Its gift, and that one of thorn is for him. That man has the choice of serving the people, and losing the job, or of voting for all lhe wrongs, and slipping into a fat office for life. That he will throw away the office is improbable; and in nine cases out of ten he takes the bait. The time was when the preservation of the independence of parliament was a Liberal principle; but this view was before the evil men secured control of the party." OKLAHOMA^ENTRME Sketch of 46th Member of Sisterhood of American States���Wealthy and Populous. Washington, Nov. 14. ��� Oklahoma makes tlie forty-sixth state in the American union; and it Is greater in area, in population and In natural resources than was any of the other states at the time of Its admission. Its million and a half people are half as many as were in all of the thirteen colonies when Independence was secured. And even now its population is greater than twenty- three of the other states, so that Okla- h.uiia begins lis career half way un the ladder. (if Oklahoma great things are ex- pected on account of its blood and its agricultural possibilities. The two great American aristocracies, the southerners and the Cherokee Indians���have united to form the basis of Us population, and the superstructure is made up of at least 500 representatives of each of the other stales, and men and women from every European country. Those who see in ibis bumaq niongrellzation one or the secrets of the power and wealth of the I'nited States have reason to believe that Oklahoma will produce a larger number of typical Americans than any other state. What New York Is tn the cities of the Culled States In Hi, matter of mixed population, Oklahoma Is to the states; for. standing in the doorway of a little Oklahoma valley, a visitor counted 31 houses, representing '22 slates and two foreign countries. Oklahoma, until 188(1, wan a land of romance, There the cowboy. Ihe gun- lighter, the Indian and the buffalo made their last stand against the advancing tide of agriculture. When the land was thrown open to settlement, the farms swept the ranches out of existence, and for some years they have been about as scarce in Oklahoma as ln Ontario. Almost incessantly since the agricultural settlement of tho territory there has heen a demand for state rights; and of late years ihe cry became too Insist,ml to be Ignored. Oklahoma was invited to draw up a constitution In readiness lor the day when another star should be sewed on the Hag. The constitution was prepared and forwarded to Washington, where President Roosevelt, after reading it. declared thai his opinion wasn't lit to print. Mr. Ilryce, the liritish ambassador, on the contrary, was warm In his praise of the Instrument, and tin- clash in tlie two distinguished opinions threatened to create an unpleasant situation. Sent back lo Oklahoma, the people ratified lt by twice the majority they gave to the Democratic ticket. Some of the features of the constitution were no doubt unusual, as, for instance, lhe prohibition of the sale of liquor for twenty one years iu the Indian territory part ol tlie state. In consequence or objections made to this clause, the people of Oklahoma nn led mil ami v..lei fnr slate- wide prohibition, s,. that tbe saloon has tO)Iowed III" buffalo and the Had Mao to the limbo of things that were and are not.

S ISili'lioll. ���r KoilK Hill, near Armstrong, a fruit grower Willi many yearn' experience In California, is likely to be of Interest. Mr. Iiurnett oin lined the BVHtem adopted there for the liiark-elini* and distributing of the fruit from the extensive orange groves as follows: A central organization, known as the Soul hern California Prult Exchange, covered the whole of Southern California with offices in L.OS Angeles. This organization made all arrangements for Helling the fruit, had complete charge of all the machinery of distribution, directed the various agents employed In looking up markets, arranged for transportation, engaged refrigerator cars, and received all orders. The orders are then distributed on a definite pro rata system to the county exchanges, tlie managers or which have no other duty but to effct further distribution to the local exchanges. The secretaries of these latter have all the work and responsibility connected with the ajciual lining of the order. As they get the orders in. it is their business to arrange with the farmers for the supplying of the fruit. A man Ib sent round to obtain an estimate of how many boxes can be obtained throughout the district. All fruit is delivered at il... packing house loose in what are called picking boxes. First and second grades are separated out and culls thrown out. Then an ingenious piece of machinery is employed to grade the fruit as to size, and to facilitate the packing. The local exchanges are very strict with regard to sending out only the best fruit Growers were credited with tho weight as delivered at the door and agreed to pool their product's as far as price w-as concerned for periods of one to two months, the period to be fixed by the directors. Payments were not made Immediately on delivery, but a partial payment would be made, say in the middle of the pool period. This was always Biich as to allow a safe margin for loss, damage, etc. The organization was strictly 00- operaiive. the capital being limited to the small amount necessary to pay for ���bads, . ,|iii|iiu.iiis. etc., none but frult- pro.liuvrs being members of the ex- , h.nge, and none owning more than one share. There was thus no dividends, all the profits of the business s-oing to the growers. Asked whetlur ihe various exoaange, did not lend to lose their Individuality NOTICB.

Gustavus Venner, born King of Kahnburg, was abducted as an infant and wanders over the globe as a soldier of fortune, only to come back in his full manhood and be placed on his own throne, through a conspiracy, because he looked like the king, who as an infant had been substituted for himself, but who now, owing tu a blow on the head, had become a maniac While acting as a Hham king. Gustavus accidentally learnn during u strong act between himself and the black prophet, who hud been a party to the abduction, that he himself is in fact the real king. Chanty Ball.
