The significant feature of the premier's speech was found in his amplification of the paragraph of his honor's speech dealing indefinitely with railways, the first minister making it clear that ;.| tire | resent inten- t ons of the government there is no ;!i"i!L'iit of bringing forward any railway le. ■ during the pre sent sessioi vernment hold- in. that the time has come when nilway construction Co ambi i should be undertaken as an unassisted business, receiving r land or m >v y subsidies from tbe provii Tbe premier also tnmunced th t ..!..• mh.i. nts to the Public Schools Act would be brought forward at an early date in the direction of improving the machinery of this much criticised measure. He warmly defended the bargain in respect to the granting of Kaien! island lands for Grand Trunk Pacific terminus purposes, as one of the best that has ever been made iu the interest of the people and revenues of the province of IL C. At the sixth annual convention Reeves' Association of li. C, N W • itminstor on ths 9th >■ s; . A I.'. B. Maogowan, M.i .1'.. .-peaking in defence of the new Sen.ml Act, stated that the act was large'v a copy of the New Brunswick one. where it was spoken oi very high y. Personally he considered tiiat the municipalities should have as mUi h -sihle over tluir schools; the more municipal eo-i- trol there is the better for the school. This idea was baa his long connection with the - board in Vancouver No place had been bit harder by the new act than V. .iivt; it had been hit tothe tune of $10,000 per annum, yet the authorities there bad mei the government exceedingly nice'y and tackled the additional ; manfully.

HE EXPIRED NINEMINl'TES AFTER ACCIDENT. When George Carothers left town on Wednesday en route to Spokane to spend the remainder ol the winter with his married daughter (Mrs. Tom Leavall) he was as happy as a schoolboy. Faithfully he has plugged away on the bilis which overhang our peaceful little town, and the holiday and re-t he was in pursuit nf was the first tak'n for i. any long days. Men who shook the horie.t old U How's hand on the quay last Wednesday in British and wished him bon voyage and a ipeedy return envied his light- heartedness, but o-jce more the axiom tbat " man proposes, but God dispose. " was to. paiufully brought to mind. Mr. Carothers had -.ached that part of his journev at Lardo where passengers southward bound leave the train for the boat, and * \ilst walking along the track he was knocked down by the engine which suddenly backed up. The wheele passed over his body, completely amputating his right leg When picked up he was quite conscious, for he rem;..-k'i to the men who bore him gently away. " For God's sake boys, sm I g-ing to die f" In less than en minutes he passed awav, and ids body was taken on board the s s. Kokanee bound for Kaslo. Relations oi the deceased were at once communicated with, but in the absence of definite instructions hi- remains will be brought to Trout Lake to he interred by the Oddfellows. rr_s_swi. iiT-*r_T*____sw___ . rge Washington Carothers was born at Kalkasha, Mich., in 1>47. He came to the Lardeau in 1889, and by his geniality and unselfishness soon won the hearts of all. He held some excellent mining properties here, on which he worked as.-idiously during the summer months. " Dad,"' as be was familiarly called, was an accomplished musician. He was a first-class violinist, an excellent eornettist, and a good performer on almost any instrument. He organized the town band, to which bs was bandmaster and instructor, lie was in politics a staunch Conservative, tod after becoming a llritish subject in li*03 took an active interest in Provincial and Domini.m affairs. Always a keen figure in local functions, scarcely a day passed bul what he was either working for or assisting in some scheme for the social advantage of the town, lie was an enthusiastic member <>t the I.O.O.F., and was a Past NIL Sober, honest and ir.- dustrious he commanded the respect of all, and be -mild ill have been spared.
