STORMY TIME IN AUSTRALIA
CAPITALISTIC  FORCES  BEING ORGANIZED AGAINST LABOR.
AGITATION WAS STARTED TO EFFECT ECONOMIES.
A movement for economy and retrenchment is under way In much-governed Australia. Australians hnve been
taught much by the consummation of
federation, snys a Melborurne correspondent of The Daily Chronicle. They find
that nil the most important legislative
work of the commonwealth is boing
done by the house of representatives of
75 members and a senate of 3t> members.
Yet they say that in the states they aro
saddled with fourteen houses of parliament, consisting of 751 members, to
manage the state affairs of 3,750,000 citizens. They see, too, that they have on
thoir backs a national debt of £200,000,-
000, which lias to be borno by 1,000,000
bread winners, of whom one man in
every eight is a civil servant. They waited patiently for u year and a half for
their state parliaments to reduce their
numbers to limits commensurate with
the new perspective created by the institution of a national legislature . . .
Strangely enough the ball has been set
rolling in Victoria by an obscure country district, Kynbrnm. A group of men,
led by a Mr. Goddard, hero propounded
n programme which would effect the
following substantial reductions In the
parliamentary mnchlne:
At present. Proposed
Ministers          8 5
M. P.'s       143 69
Member's snlory 6300     £200
But though this programme would ensure a saving of over £50,000 a year, It
left the entire constitutional and admla
Istratlvo trouble out of the question.
It needed, therefore the powerful advocacy of the great radical dally, The
Age, to raise the entire crusade to n
high platform. Adopting Lord Rose-
bery's cry of efficiency, The Age published n series of "Papers for the Times/'
In which tho utter rottennes of state
politics was exposed with fierce truthfulness which was positively startling In
its operation on the minds of tho electors,
The Age proved that the Victorian
state railways are being run at a loss
of £1,000 a day! that no less than
twelve Victorian royal commlslons arc
roaming the country at public expense,
doing work that should fall to the lot
of tho responsible and highly paid ministers; that, as compared with the American and Canadian states, and every
European country, Victoria is the most
extravagant democracy In the world;
that, despite the fact that the great departments of the postofllce, customs aud
defence have passed to tho federal government, tho wages bill for the civil service has gone up from £1,142,781 In
1809 to £1,312,720 In 1902, or an increase
of £109,930; and, finally, that tlio entire state administration has become
paralysed by the Inefficiency of ministers nnd tho absence of an alternative
government. This expose led to the
immediate and spontaneous formation
of reform leagues throughout tho state.
For throe weeks past there has boon a
series of crowded meetings In every
large centre, at which resolutions demanding retrenchment and reorganization have beon passed with hardly a
handful of dissentients.
Tho correspondent points out that this
movement Is In some measure associated
with "the Anti-Socialism wave of reaction now passing over Australia." He
goes on: The labor party in tlip two
premier states has, mistakenly, I think,
taken up an attitude of opposition to
the reform plus reduction crusade. Instead of utilizing tho popular clamor the
party leaders in Sydney and Melbourne
—usually 'cuto and tactful men—have
given color to tbe idea that they dread
the fruits of a policy which must result in the creation of larger constituencies, and, therefore, of increased difficulties In the patli of labor candidates.
There Is, however, something to be said
for their position in view of the ominous
combination of capitalists and employers now in process of formation, with a
view to test the strength at the next
state elections. This combination,
known In Victoria as the Employers'
Federation, has just unified all the employing interests, and this week issued
a manifesto in which state parliamentary reform Is likened with the most insolent Toryism nnd the most antiquated
economics. The federation declares It
will fight the re-enaction of the Victor-
Ian factories act tooth and nail, especially the minimum wage clauses; nnd
that it will oppose generally all that
organized labor holds dear. The manifesto opens, significantly, thus:
"For many years the employers nnd
capitalists of Australia have stood
mostly on the defensive against tho aggressions of socialistic legislation, which
has so long swayed our parliament; but
the time has now come when this must
be actively combated and opposed."
In these circumstnnces it is not to bo
wondered ut If advanced labor men see
In the reform agitation their old enemy
the "freedom of contract" individualist
in a new garment
NEWMAN WAS BANQUETTE!)
TRAINMEN   ENTERTAIN   ONE   OF

THEIR HOSPITALITY IS SHARED BY

an American citizen the privilege of Joining in the first toast. Speaking of the order uf railway trainmen, Mr. Newman said
few In Canada realized from what Insignificant beginnings It had grown intu its
present vast proportions. Twenty years
ago seven brakemen had met together nnd
outlined a plan uf organization which today Is represented by the Inrgest railway
organization on earth, numbering In Its*
membership upwards of 57,000 men. The
relations existing between the organization
and the various railway corporation^ were
of the most harmonious nature. The goneral managers of tho railways realized today that It was not the object of their organization to foment trouble, but rather
to assist in every honorable way to advance the best interests of the companies,
At the snmc time they expected to share
In the advantages secured by the companies through their efforts. Mr. Newman
went on to compare tho conditions prevailing todny with those prevalent twenty
years ngo. Thore Is now no arbitrary resort to strikes, followed by sullen return
to work after their money bad run. oul
and the beer was nil consumed. Grievances
were today systematically Investigated,
nnd where a member hnd been disciplined
for mlscondccl the action of the railway
official would be upheld. The Brotherhood
now consisted of fB9 lodges, and nt the last
convention a resoluilon was adopted favoring arbitration und conciliation as the
best method of adjusting nil labor dlfflc-
cullies, lt was the policy of their order to
QXh'aust every honorable moans of settling
their grievances before resorting to u
strike. This policy had proved eminently
satisfactory to all concerned and had
given iheir order an Influonco fur good
that could hnve boen obtained In no other
way. Mr. Newman described the method
In force of dealing with all difficulties that
arose affecting nny member of the order.
Tho chief rule being that there must be
no precipitate or aggressive action, lie
described tho Insurance und beneficiary
features of the order, nnd nlso told of the
methods of conducting the business at
hendquarters In Cleveland* Inclosing Mr.
Newman congratulated tho Canadian
brethren upon the success thut had Invariably attended their efforts to adjust
Iheir grievances with the C. P. II.. His
visit hud not beon In connection with any
trouble, but simply a social one. "Our Officials" the next toast was responded to
hy J. a. Lawrence und ,1. Hamilton. Mayor
Fletcher responded to the toast of "Our
City." For "Kootenny Lodge No. 658" the
speakers wore J. S, Irving und A. Ilalltett.

Kill Bodwell's Chnrter.
Victoria, Juno IB.—(Special to The Dally
News.)—The three million loan hill was
passed, and assented to by the lieutenant-
governor toduy.

FRANCHISE IS WIDE OPEN
PROVINCIAL,  LEGISLATURE  GIVES
THE BOYS A VOTE.
WOMEN SUFFRAGISTS FAIL TO SECURE A MAJORITY.
Victoria, June 12.—(Sneclnl to
Tlie Dally News.)—Tho legislature sprung another surprise upon the province todny. It enmo
while the house was considering
a bill to amend the Provincial
Elections Act, when an amendment wns offered changing the
ago nt which the franchise ban
be exercised from 21 to 18 years.
Those who were instrumental in
securing the change doubtless
sounded a number of members
before the amendment was introduced, as the vote was overwhelmingly In its favor, standing 22
to six. The vote is surprising in
that nothing was heard of nny
agitation for a change, and the
nows thnt it has been mado will
doubtless be the first. Intimation
that most people will have that
the change was even contemplated.
The friends of the woman's
franchise were not so successful.
Year nfter yenr the advocates of
thla change have conducted n
lobby to secure tho amendmont
to tho olection act thut they desire, and on one or two occasions they have secured a sufficient number of promises from
the Individual members of tho
house to secure a pnssnge of
their fancied reform, but when lt
came to the Ana) vote their converts Invariably fell away. Tho
amendment wns moved ngain today, but it was three votes short
in a slim houso, being defeated
on a division of 15 to 12.
It is expected now thnt tho business of the present session will
be concluded on Wednesday.
This will make tlie present sitting ono of tho longest in the history of the province, nnd it has
certainly been the most lively,
even It it has not been very profitable for the province.

Disastrous Plagues.
St. Petersburg, June n.-Tho famine In
Siberia is spreading with Increasing Intensity. Reports from Irkutsk show that an

FABBBHAPPY
MANITOBA'S   CROP   OUTLOOK IS VERY BRIGHT.
CHANGES   ABE   THAT   CANADA
WILL HAVE   ANOTHER
PROSPEROUS SEASON.
Winnipeg, June 13.—Crop bulletin No.
60 wus Issued tonight by the Manitoba
department of agriculture, and Is compiled from returns received by the department up to June 11th from all
parts of tho province. Reports Indicate
tbat the germination of seed has been
perfect, and thut wherever tho seed
wus muddod in, and farmers had difficulty In drawing seeders off the flelds,
the prospects are surprising. Farmers
have done their work as well as could
be expected under tho conditions, and
from tho past experience It Is only natural to expect a good harvest. Seeding
commenced in some parts of the province as early ns the llrst of April, but
was not general until nfter tlio 15tU.
In most parts of tlie province wheat
seeding was not finished until May 24th.
Oats and barley und other crops wero
sown up to the end of the first wook in
June. Flax was sown as late as Juno
10th. Seeding was greatly retarded in
all parts of the province by a heavy rain
fall throughout the month ot Mny.
There was more ruin during Bcedlng
than farmers desired, resulting In a few
cases in a decreased acreage In wheat,
but this has been anipiy compensated
by tiio wonderful rapid growth which
all crops have made. A feature of tho
past season was tlie heavy rain fall In
March, there being nn average of 1.75
Inches. April wns light In contrast, being only .21 Inches for the points reported. Tlio rainfall for May was tho
heaviest record for tbnt month, being
iM. as compared with .91 in 1901.
Grass, like grain crops, hus mnde remarkable progress under the prevailing
favorable Influences, and pastures uro
in the finest possible condition. Hay
meadows nre now flooded, and If they
dry sufficiently by haying time, tbe crop
will be equal to that of last year in
quantity, and superior In quality.
Correspondents nre almost unanimous
In their reports that all kinds of live
stock nre In prime condition. Tho abundance of foder nf all kinds, nnd courso
grains, has enabled fanners to feed liberally. The only unfavorable reports
nre to the effect that the cold wot spring
and heavy work of seeding* has somewhat reduced the condition of horses.
In most localities fanners have a surplus of hay on band owing to the early
date at which cattle were turned on tho

Phoenix, Juno 12.—(Special to
The Daily Nows.)—A few days

Knob Hill mine, while springing
a deep hole (in that property. J.
McCIusky was loading the hole,
liiid pul In tho powder, and lighted the fuse, and was pouring iu
water when the Idast went off.
HlB eyes were almost blown nut,
and his partner. A. Redmond,

WOB taken to tho Phoenix hospital, recently opened, and this
wei'k the surgeon In charge
found it necessary to take out
what remained of both eyes.
The case Is peculiarly sad, ns
McCIusky has no friends or relatives that are known. He Is a
single man of about 10 years and
a native of Quebec, and is now
loft without Sight and without
means of support. No blame is
attached to the management ot
the mine for the accident, McCIusky having been specially

This to he a memorable session of tho
legislature. On top of reckless squandering of public money and public land on
railway promoters conies tho announcement tbat by a vote of 22 to G our legislators have extended tho franchise In
provincial elections to all males over
18 years of age, who would otherwise
be qualified to voto. This Is an Innovation, aud, wc think, quite uncalled for.
There has boen no agitation looking to
tbo granting ot tho franchise to youths
between tbe ages of 18 and 21, aud it is
very questionable whether these youths
will appreciate the privilege, apart altogether from tbo very important consideration of tbeir lltuess for exercising it.
The franchise should not be lightly
tampered witb. Manhood suffrage bas
on tho whole worked satisfactorily, and
only a few reactionaries would today
seek to have limitations placed upon it.
Hut to extend that privilege to youths
is a very serious move, und one that
should not have been hastily decided
upon. Everyone wbo lias had anything
to do witb political campaigns knows
bow dlillcult it is to Interest many
grown men in the issues at stake. AU
too frequently tho experience is that a
large portion of tho electorate gives no
thought to tho politics of the respectives
parties, and votes blindly In support of
some party name. By this extension of
tbo franchise the proportion of voters
wbo will take llttlo real iutcrest in
public affairs bas been materially increased. It is no unjust charge to make
against the youth of the province to say
that tbey will not exercise their franchise Intelligently. Iu tho nature of
things they cannot he expected to have
tho grasp of legislation and the principles of public administration that alono
qualifies a man to vote Intelligently.
There Is another aspect of the question
that our legislators probably never gave
a moment's thought to. By granting to
youths of 18 the franchise they are also
burdened with all the responsibilities of
citizenship. This is fair neither to tbo
youths nor to their seniors. The age of
21 has heretofore been considered time
enough for the assumption of these responsibilities, and wc are nut inclined to
think that British Columbia will ever
have occasion to rejoice over tlie innovation that a fool legislature has thrust
upon it unawares. The thing is done,
and the best must be made of the situation. British Columbia boys aro bright
enough and quite as precocious as those
of any other county. Tbey may rise to
tbo occlusion, and set their elders an example by the wise exercise of a privilege
ol inestimable value.
BRITISH COLUMBIA IRON.
An excursion party went from Victoria to Irondule, on PUget Sound, last
Sunday to look over the iron works established thoro. The most peculiar feature of tho affair Is that the Iron ore
and the fuel used at tlie Iromialo works
are obtained from this province, so that
we aro us a matter of fact allowing our
nelgbors to the south to enjoy the benefits that should be ours. There Is something Incongruous In such a condition of
affairs.   It Is absurd lo think that al
though we possess every requisite for tho
making of pig iron and steel, no attempt
is made to do so, hut that the material
Is actually shipped out of the country
and, In a foreign laud is made Into a
product for which there is a great demand by those with whom we are striving to build up a trade. It is simply
placing a powerful weapon into the
hands of one of our most energetic competitors for tho very same trade. Were
tho situation less serious it would almost be ridiculous.
Why do we not produce our own pig
iron? There is nothing peculiarly essential to the process, about the climate
of the Sound that makes It a specially
desirable spot for Iron works. Just as
good a result would follow were tho
blast furnaces erected on this side of
tho line. Presumably it Is a question of
money, the same old cry of people who
are too lacking in enterprise to grapple
with the problem in investing their own
money In such an enterprise. The capital required for the erection of blast
furnaces Is large, hut if it will pay on
tbe Sound it should surely be no less
remunerative on the island, nnd if there
is no other way of raising tho money
for the establishing of iron works in
the province surely It would not bo an
impossible undertaking to form a company and secure the needed capital by
the sale of shares. Tbe question Is a
very serious ono. Every yonr the blowing In of our own blast furnaces is delayed tho firmer the foothold obtained
by our competitors in tho foreign markets. The measure introduced into the
local houso for the encouragement of
the iron industry is an indication that
tho Importance of the matter Is not unrecognized. Tho groat need Is for immediate action.
EDITORIAL NOTES.
J.N. Greenshields, K. C, upon his
return to Montreal informed the public
that his mission to British Columbia
bad been very successful. He is well
satisfied with tlie cash subsidies voted
for tho construction of the Canadian
Northern, nnd well be may be for his
clients will receive over $3,000,000 for
work that tbey would have been compelled to do even If our legislature had
not voted them n five cent piece. But
Mr. Greenshields is not very grateful
for the generous treatment be received
at Victoria. Ho told tbo people of Montreal that business was unsatisfactory
In British Columbia. Surely be found
business pretty good. Of course ho may
havo been forced to pny fairly heavy
commissions and Is feeling sore. To
explain the cause of the alleged unsatisfactory condition of business in this
province Mr. Greenshields resorted to
the usual fiction, lie stated that there
Is considerable unrest over tbe labor
question. Mr. Greenshields knows
nothing of any labor question In this
provinco beyond that involved In working through tho legislature a bill to
bonus a wealthy syndicate of railroad
promoters. Possibly that labor question
did causo him some unrest but ho did
well enough, and could bave afforded to
havo kept silent regarding the long
hours ho put in sparring with attorney-
general Eberts for points. Mr. Greenshields in talking about unrest over labor questions simply sought to mislead
tbe people of Montreal. If business bo
dull In tills provinco the cause Is nearer
to men of the stripe of Mr. Greenshields
than to any labor question. Fool legislators, land grabbers, charter mongers,
and company promoters have worked
moro Injury to British Columbia than
any labor trouble ever has or ever will.
The fortyVthird annual meeting of
the Eastern Townships bank was held
iu Sherbrooke, Que, last week. Tho
financial statement shows a net profit
for the year's operations of ovor a quarter of a million dollars. A dividend for
tbo year of 8 per cent hns been paid, or
will be by the 2nd proximo. The reserve fund has been strengthened by an
additional $150,000, bringing that account up to $1,200,000. Mr. Hcncker,
the president, in his address stated that
the results from the British Columbia
brunches at Grand Forks and Phoenix
were vory satisfactory. It Is pleasing
to note this reference to business in
this province, for of late eastern financiers havo been in a very critical mood
when discussing British Columbia affairs,
Many easterners who put a few dollars
Into fake mining schemes foisted upon
them by their fellow townsmen, because
they bavo not made millions go about
abusing the province. British Columbia
Is all right, and offers better opportunities for Investment than any other province in the Dominion, but 2 cent shares
In $5,000,000 companies cannot be considered gilt edged investments.
.T. ,T. Hill, president of tho Groat
Northern railway, was tho principal
speaker at a recent dinner of the Illinois Manufacturers' Association. He bad
something to sny about "trusts," and
offered this suggestion:
"Tlio only serious objection to so-
called trusts has boon tho method of
creating them—not for tho purpose of
manufacturing any public commodity in
tho first place, but for tho purpose of
selling sheaves of printed securities
which   represent   nothing   more   than
good-will and prospective profits to the
promoters.
"if it is the desire of tho gcscrnl government, through congress, to prevent
tho growth of such corporations, it has
always seined to me that n simple remedy was within their reach.
"Under the constitutional provision
allowing congress to regulate commerce
betweon tho states, all companies desiring to transact business outside of the
stnto in which they are incorporated
should be held to a uniform provision
of federal law.
"They should satisfy a commission
that their capital stock was actually
paid up In cash or in property, at a fair
valuation, just ns the capital stock of
the national bank is certified to be paid
up.
"With that simple law, the temptation to make companies for the purpose of selling prospective profits would
be nt an end, and, at the same time, no
legitimate business would suffer." A
law upon similar lines in Canada would
put a stop to a lot of fake mining company promotions which havo done and
aro doing incalculable harm to legitimate mining undertakings.

JEWS DRIVEN INTO EXILE
FORCED OUT OP ROUMANIA THEY
WILL SETTLE IN CANADA.
UNFORTUNATE HEBREWS FORBIDDEN TO WORK OR TALK.
The nntl-forclgncrs' law soon to bo put
Into operation will drive iWO.OOO Roumanians from Carmen Sylvn's kingdom. Theso
natives will be sent across tlie frontier
like so many barbarian invaders, because
their religion differs from tho accepted
faith, and tho majority of them are coming to Canada,
For tho anti-foreigners' law is really an
anti-Jew law. This legislative act forbids
Jews to engage In manual labor of any
kind. They are neither allowed to bo artisans nor to till the soil.
Russia excused her persecution of Jews
on tho ground lhat they refused to engage in agriculture; Roumanla goes the
big sister empire one better and says Jews
shall out engage In nny honest work
whatever. It Is like binding a man hand
and foot and pushing him out of doors to
starve. Rut that isn't all, for in addition
to being robbed of the use of his limbs he
Is muzzled.
This government, pledged to destroy
the Jew, hns suspended the constitution
as far as he is concerned; the right of free
speech is taken away from him, and respectful protest against the contemplated
outrage Is styled "high treason," Wherever in Roumanla Jews come together in
peaceful assemblage to talk over the dread
Situation they arc liable to arrest and punishment by court-martial.
Canadian readers mny well doubt that
such is possible In a civilized country In
tlie heart of Europe, The other day a
band of 2U7 native Jews passed through
Bucharest) en route for Hamburg, and
others, bound for German, Italian and Belgian ports, may be met daily on the railways and roads leading to the frontier.
With one or two exceptions every man was
a Roumanian citizen by birth nnd education. Some hnd grandfathers and greatgrandfathers living or eurled in this country long beforo the present dynasty emigrated to Roumanla from Sigmnrlngen.
As to their occupation, tho majority were
Artisans, brleklnyers, carpenters and joiners, tailors, bakers, nnd the like; thirty or
more were small farmers; 150 had worked
on farms—not a saloonkeeper, horse dealer
or petty banker among them.
COMING TO CANADA.
The badly frelghtened and heart-broken
men nnd women snld they imped to reach
the Hirsoh colonies in Northwestern Canada by the middle of June, Numerous
friends and compatriots of theirs are nlso
going there before and aftor tho law
against Israelites takes effect. All carried
testimonials of their former mayors or vil-
liage elders proving good conduct. None
had been fined for mlsdcmennor even.
Further written testimonials by tho authorities showed thnt the average wngc of
theso peoplo was about twenty cents n
dny; the women got eight to nine cents for
twelve or fourteen hours' work In the flulda
nt harvesting time.
"On tills we could live, ns we hnd our
homes; we even added to our snvlngs yearly," snld a patriarch, who neted ns spokesman. "Hut the government in Bucharest
thought we were getting too rich. As n
matter of fact, wo were no better off thnn
our Christian neighbors, though wc were
compelled to work harder. And so they
sent us away."
The poor people hod to sell their huts
nnd furniture for a mere pittance. Only
the well-to-do of each community carried
their household linen along. The rest had
to part with that also to pay their debts
nnd obtain traveling expenses. They looked like a badly nourished crowd; their
clothes were the most primitive. The women were even moro emaciated than the
men. And such poor babies ns they have
nre ordinarily found only lu the cily workmen's quarters,
The writer asked tho rabbi If they had
been allowed to carry away lhe "Ark of
Covenant," nn Imitation of which Is kept
In the synagogues.
"We never possessed the blessed Ark,"
he answered. "All we ever had Is this
Tnrnh supposed to lie n thousand years
old." The Tornh, a copy of the Old Testn-
ment, written on parchment nnd rolled on
n staff of ebony, is probably tho most ancient now In existence outside of tho museums. If these poor peoplo would only
part With It they might sell lt for a price
that would start overy one of them In
business on the othor slfte. But when It
was suggested io the rabbi he turned awny
disgusted. "They robbed us of our livelihood, our home, our country," he snld.
"Shnll we now give up our God, too?
Never! This Tornh speaks to us In the
tongue of our Lord. Thero Is even a saying that one of the prophets indited lt with
Ills own hands."
ONLY ONE HUNDRED FRANCS EACH.
"Yes we have had an application from
Roumanla to provide for und settle a hundred families in Cnnuda," snld Air. W. H.
Raker, superintendent of the Huron de
Illrsch Institute today.
"That Is all I know regarding the matter
beyond the fact that we were informed the
Immigrants would probably average about
100 francs nplece, which as you know
is utterly useless to help these people. We,
of course, hnve no funds to assist them
with, so we have referred the matter to
the head olllce, of the Institute In Paris.
Bo far as we know no agent of tho Institute
hns been appointed to accompany them.
"Wero you notified of the expected expulsion of theso Roumanian Jews?"
"No, we knew there wns some trouble
brewing, that Is all. But tho matter has all
heen referred to tlie head office of the
Baron do Illrsch Institute In Purls, which
will denl with It."
The ngent of the Bnron de Hirsch Association accompanying the emigrants snld
that he had to travel ahead and under nn
assumed name to avoid meeting the crowds
of poor Jews who desired to bo taken
along, though entirely destitute. "Take us
as servants," they cried; "wo will work
for vou In America until our passage money l* paid If it takes ton years,"
"Doi't leave us to starve," wailed wo-
mo an] children,  "there will bo  nothing
left foi ns hut thnt when the new law
goes InU effect."
Tho age,t nays:   "Tho Situation cries to
heaven, lithe grent powers who confirmed lloumnnhn Independence nt tho Berlin
congress ullov this outrage, they will for
feit their claim to civilization and Christianity,
"Though I have travelled all over Roumanla, I have yet to lind a muyor or police
president wlio says that the Jew is not a
good citizen. Why, in some districts the
number of criminals among Jows is from
GO to 5 per cent less In proportion to population than among persons of other denominations. Yet they hnvo to go, because a narrow-minded law won't allow
them to live if they remain.
"Among those characterized ns foreigners by the new low are native Roumanians
whose families lived nnd thrived here when
this territory was still a Turkish province.
Numerous Jew families, now driven out
as strangers, received their very family
names from tho princes whom King Carol
succeeded   as   sovereign."—Montreal   Star.
JACKING UP THE COUNCIL
BOARD OF TRADE REQUESTS A RELIEF FOR FERNIE.
STEPS BEING TAKEN TO   SECURE
TARIFF AMENDMENTS.
At the board of trade meeting Inst evening there was n lively session, In which J.
Dover, F. Starkey and A. J. Marks had
some warm words with secretary Swnnnell.
The trouble urose over a letter which hud
been sent out by the Vancouver board to
Nelson, endorsing the action of the latter
board in endeavoring to secure Increased
duties on lead. This letter was received
by the secretary two days after the lust
regular meeting, and had been Shown Informally by him to a number of the members soon after its receipt, but he had not
brought It to the meeting, which action
wus resented by tho members in question.
Outside of tills the meeting was nn Interesting one, and considerable business was
transacted.
Those present were Messrs. W. W, Beer,
Hugh R. Cameron, C, Morrison, J. McDonald, H. Black, George Nunn, H. P.
Uyers, J. Dover, F. Starkey, A. J. Marks,
W. G. Glllett, H, Goodeve, Rowley, W. R.
McLean, nnd H. Laing.
In the absence of the president, the chair
was tuken by Mr. Morrison. After various
routine matters of huslnes had been attended to a letter was read from the Fernie Board of Trade regarding the late disaster at that town nnd asking the Nelson
hoard to take action on the matter. Mr.
Swannell announced that at a meeting of
the council of the board of trade a recommendation had been drafted that the board
should request the Nelson city council to
donate not less than WOO to the Fernie relief fund. On motion of Mr. Rowley, seconded by Mr. McLean, a motion to this effect was passed unanimously, to be forwarded to the council nl its next meeting.
Tho secretary then read letters from tho
Victoria and Vancouver boards endorsing
the letter sent out by the Nelson board
regarding tho necessity for an Increased
duty on  lead.
Messrs. Black and Robertson, who hnd
been appointed a committee at the last
meeting to draft a letter to be sent out
to the retail dealers of the Kootenays reported thnt they had completed the letter,
which wos accordingly read by tbo secretary. The letter after briefly reciting the
facts regarding the present depression existing through the silver-lead districts und
tho causes, asked that each denier who received lt should forward a personal letttor
to nt least ono wholesaler lu the oast telling them of the condition of affairs, and
asking them to use tholr Influence with
their member of parliament lo have the
necessnry legislation passed that would put
an end to such condition of affairs ns at
present exists. A few statistics were given,
to be quoted in the letter sent out by the
retailer, who was also nsked to write the
secretary of the Nelson hoard for any further Information required,
On motion of Mr. Cameron, seconded by
Mr. Murks, tho report of the committee
was adopted and It wns decided to hove a
uslllcicnt ncmber of copies of tlio letter
printed to circulate among nil retailers,
Also that the committee should be continued to nssist the secretary In circulating
lhe lettera.
Mr. Robertson mnde a short speech In
which he suggested that each member of
the bonrd present should mnke it n point
to sec at least one retail denier of Iho city
nnd get him to send one of tho letters, as
it was only by using every possible means
thnt tho mnttcr ctmlil he brought up
strongly enough before the Dominion house
to secure nny results.

PRINTERS' INK PHILOSOPHY.
It Is a great mistake to conclude you
can get along without advertising. The
man who decides to dispense with advertising sliould naturally expect his business to grow less and less. The whole
matter rests on the subject of whether
he expects to continue to live long
enough to outlive the prosperity whieh
Ills past exertion may force upon him.
If he Is able to get along without advertising this year he will be able to get
along with less help next year and each
year will see a decrease in the volume
of his transactions. If he is wise ho
will keep up his advertising as strongly
as possible in order that he may reap
in the end the results which come as a
satisfaction to the man who has individuality enough to stop experimenting.
Sticking to it is what counts In advertising. One advertisement one day
may, and often does, produce results,
hut people have many things to look at
and think of. To Impress them permanently with any one article takes persistent and continued hammering.
It Is a mistake to suppose a thing has
become sufficiently well known to need
no moro advertising. The public has a
strangely short memory, A firm which
had for twenty years spent $50,000 a
year in mnking a particular article public, tried the experiment of reducing
their outlay to $25,000 per annum. But
the next year it took $100,000 to restore
them to their position. Enormous fortunes are massed by those who advertise largely, judiciously and incessantly;
hut all who hnve had experience in the
matter will confirm the statement that
the latter is the one preat point. It does
not do to relax In exertion.

BOERS BECOMING FRIENDLY
ONLY    BITTERNESS    IS   AGAINST
FRANCE AND GERMANY.
WAR WAS PROTRACTED IN HOPE
OF THEIR INTERVENTION.
Pretoria, Wednesday, Juno 13.-In nil
11,225 Boers hnvo surrendered up to date.
Many are youngsters of 11 years old and
upwards, The majority nre under 30,
though somo nro septuagenarians, Advices from all the districts say thnt tlie
burghers nre increasingly friendly. The
only bitterness observable among tlie leading Boers hero is against France and Qer-
mnny. They declare tho war waa protracted unnecessarily owing to hopes held out
by the French nnd German press. Somo
of the Boors nre so Incensed that they
havo expressed tho hope thnt some day
they will fight on the side of the British
ngnlnst one of these powers.
The antlolpnted friction between the surrendered Boers nnd their former comrades
of the Natal scouts has not materollzed
to any extent.
The Boers admit they received nmunition
through Portuguese  territory.
Goneral Dewet snys tho youngsters were
his best fighters, nnd frequently held positions nfter the old burgers hnd cleared
out.
The Boers of (he Ornnge River Colony
nre handing only a smnll percentage of
their ammunition. They explain thnt they
used most of It hunting game since the
peace agreement was signed.

ENGLISH BREAD TAX,
Becomes a Very Serious Imposition on the
British Poor.
Tlie Cobden Club lias Issued n leaflet on
the subject of the bread tax, showing how
this Impost affects ttie poorest clnsH in
Great Britain. This is tlio "under-fed
class," the dimensions of which In the
United Kingdom nre enormous. One-fourth
of the town population are either III the
plight of not having fond enough to keep
their bodily powers In good working order,
or nre on the border line between a sufficient and an Insufficient supply. This appalling foot hns lately been brought ont
by the researches of Mr. Charles Booth
and Mr. Rowntroe. Now, the bread tax
Is estimated by the chancellor of the ox-
chequer to produce about $13,000,000, But
this does not represent lhe full amount
that will be paid. The price of groin
grown In the Unltod Kingdom will be Increased in the same proportion us that of
the imported article, This will add hair
as much more lo the burdens of lhe consumer, bringing the total up to $20,000,000,
But tills docs not tell the whole story. The
linkers ure not going to pay tills sum out
of their own pockets. They will charge it
over to the purchasers of bread, and the
extra cost Is estimated to 1)0 oqual to half
a farthing a loaf. As there Is no hucTi
coin as half farthing, the extra charge lo
all who buy a single loaf-that is, to the
very poorest class—Will bo a whole farthing. Therefore, tho heaviest burden will
fall Upon those least able to bear it.   Tills
usually happens in the adjustment of Indirect taxes. The Cobden Club intends to
light against It, whether the war In South
Africa continues or not, The leaflet says
that the buttle will bo waged, not on tiie
grounds of froo trade merely, but for the
welfare of the most helpless purl of the
community, and especially for the Utile
children of the poor who suffer most from
the bread tax.
TO ENQUIRE INTO THB WAR,

PARASITES CAUSE ALL HAIR

Nine-tenths of the diseases of the scalp

The Importance of this discovery by Professor t'liiia of the charily Hospital, Hamburg, Germany, can not tic ovorostlmated,
it explains why ordinary hair preparations,
even of tho most expensive character fail
to cute dandruff] because they do not, and
they cab not kill the dandruff genu. Tho
only hair preparation In the world thnt

| Lost Opportunity.
EVERY time a package goes out of
your store which does not contain
some   advertising matter,  you are
losing an opportunity to make your
store the store of the town.
Each package you send out is proof
that a sale has* been made. Every sale is
supposedly of goods that are going to give
the customer full value, and arc going to give
satisfaction.' This will create a favorable
impression. Every sale proves that some
person has shown a disposition to trade
with you,
Now this disposition is either great or
small. In either case it can be made
greater. And one of the most effective
methodsjto bring about this desired effect is
to place the advertising matter in the packages you send out.

Captain West, of tlie Ilalys, who came
in on Thursday from Balfour, brought
with him an Indian suffering from n
severe wound on his arm, which he had
received in a most remarkable way, He
had been hunting, armed with a shotgun, and happened to come unexpecedly
on a large buck at close quarters. He
fired both charges of shot, and tlie deer
turned on him suddenly. He drew a
hunting knife he was carrying, but was
knocked over beforo lie could use it,
and falling on the knife severed one of
the arteries of his arm. He crawled part
of the way to West's ranch, and was discovered on the trail nearly dead from
loss of blood. Captain West bound Up
tho wound as well as possible, and
brought him In for medical attendance.

At the police court yesterday morning
John Hughes was tried on the charge of
stealing ?44 from the person of T. Ait-
man. The prisoner pleaded guilty and
was remanded until this morning for
sentence. The case reflects credit on the
police for the quick finding of the guilty
party, as the charge was only laid tlie
previous afternoon. Aitmaii had not
tho sligliest suspicion of Hughes but
suspected another man, although
Hughes had been with him about the
time the affair occurred. A slight circumstance, however, caused Hughes to
be watched, and finally searched, when
one twenty dollar note, with three
lives, wero found on him. The money
stolen had consisted of a twenty, four
fives, and four ones. As it was known
that Hughes had been without money
the day before, and as ho could not give
any satisfactory explanation of how he
camo into possession of it he was arrested.

ItcH. there for several months, water being
applied from time to timo by means uf a
hose. This process pulverizes the ground.
When the stuff [S ready it is passed
through revolving screens and sent to a
pun with a large amount of water. The
diamonds settle nt the bottom of tlio pan,
while the matrix, being lighter, is carried
away over the side of tho pan. Tlie diamonds, together with the heaviest part or
the matrix, aro taken from the pans, placed on tables nnd sorted.
AT THE HOTELS.
The diamond deposits of South Africa,
brought prominently to notice lately on account of the death of tho diamond king.
Cecil Rhodes, are all lying within a radius of one und one-half miles. They have
the world famous Do Boors mine as the
center and are grouped together. St Augustine mine, Klmberloy mine, Town of
Klmberloy, Lu Beors mine, DutoltSpan
mine,  liulfontelii mine.
It Is claimed that tlie first diamond was
found lu 1867 by a farmer's boy, at a place
called Hope Town, and situated about IK'
miles south of Klmberloy. Two years
luter u Hottentot found the famous ".Star
of South Africa," which was sold for WO,-
ooo. Such a discovery started a mad rush
und the year JS70 saw the banks of the
Vuul rvlor covered witli tenia and huts
of every size and shape, lu tho river the
men, ball" naked, panned, rocked cradles
and searched the products of tha rockers,
But thu result was very disappointing.
At lho same time many Dutch farmer.-'
began to dig on their farms, lu the hope
of limlhig diamonds. This diamond digging did not attract much attention at
llrst, but after a few months, however,
tho frequent finding of Diamonds caused a
gonorai stampede from iho river to the
farm Du Tottspan, which was thrown open
to the diggers, to whom tho owner sold
claims 'Al feet square for $2, Then tlie diggers went to the Do Beers farm. In July,
1871, thu Kl ni bur ley mine was found, aud
the farms were bought by thu government
of thu Cape Colony for J50.LWJ. The mines
ure held by the payment <if a license by
thu owners or their successors. Jn ISTA
Kimbcrley had grown to a town of 26,000
Inhabitants, For many years tho valuo of
the diamonds extracted amounted to $60,-
000,000 a. year, and about three-quarters of
this amount came from tho Klmberloy
mino alone.    Of late years all  the mines
havo been consolidated Into a trust, which
prevents the forcing down of the prico of
diamonds by too many of thorn being
placed on tlie market. It is claimed that
tlio world's market can absorb as much aw
Jir.,U00,WW worth uf diamonds each year,
without any material falling off in price.
Outside of the fields of South Africa
Brazil and India arc tho two countries
which produce diamonds in commercial
quantities, in the middle of the sandstone
of the Was the diamond mines appear as
volcanic necks, from 'COO to 0u0 feet in diameter.
TIIE   KIMHKKLKY   MINE.
The doposlt of diamond-bearing ground
Is oval. Tlie giingus of thu ore or blue
ground was a red and sandy soil, forming
a    low    knob    above    tho  SUrfaCO    of   the
ground.  The first diamond is said to have
been found 20 foot deep. The mine has
been worked as on open quarry down i"
a depth of BOO feot, nml a prospecting shaft
has since been sunk in the bottom of tho
mine. The general opinion Is that the formation of the diamond-bearing deposits
was due to aqueous rather than Ignoous
agencies, and that It Is possible something
lu the nature of a.mud volcano.    A very

THE KICKERS' COLUMN.
WANTS   A CELEBRATION.
Editor of. Tlie Daily News: In almost
every town and city of the British empire preparations are being mado to celebrate thu coronation, la Nelson, a city
generally noted for Its loyalty und patriot-
Ism lho matter Is being treated with
apathy only equal to the indifference with
Which the declaration of peace was treated.
Nothing Is done here to celebrate tho holiday given In honor of tlie empire's most
glorious monarch—Victoria Day. The grent
Dominion holiday, the 1st of July, thla year
Is being passed over, and are we to allow
the coronation day lo pass over in the
same manner. If nothing else can be done
surely the day can bo made one that the
younger generation will remember. To lei
the children of tho city have a celebration
thnt they will always remember should
be an easy matter. The projected smoker
seems to hnve fallen through und It will
ho to Nelson's lusting disgrace if nothing
Is done to celebrate au event uniiiue in the
lives of most of us.
One of the socitfes In town had somo talk
of holding a banquet open to nil British
subjects, thnt too for some unexplained
reason hus been dropped,
Unless something is done soon, the two
great holidays in the yenr will pass unnoticed in Nelson. The regatta to be
held nt tlie end of July Is no doubt a greul
affair, but should that bo allowed to prevent us celebrating tlie coronation of King
Edward VII,     Yours truly,
LOYALIST.

equipments, notably the Duudoiiald gun

rather lute in life, as he was 17 when the
South African war broke out, and had
hitherto been chiefly known as the belted

CAUSE OF CHINESE LOYALTY.
Minister W'u Tliig-Fnng said, ut the
Georgia military college, that all efforts
mado by Americans and other foreigners
to guess the cause of absolute loyalty and
devotion of tlie Chinese subjects in time of
trouble had heen futile. He explained thai
Il was dun to college training, ami was
ono of tlie live relations Inbred in Chinese
children, viz., to honor father und mother
lu life and ufler death, so us Io preserve
under all conditions devotion to tho sovereign power; to respect ago; to hallow tho
relation belween husband and wife, and
nlso Unit between friend und friend.
lie said no Chinese merchant hud ever de-
fruuded a man out of a penny in business
transactions, and no parent's will hud ever
been attacked lu China. He snys China
does not have to be governed by the sword,
because thi' principles of loyalty nnd dov->-
tlon nre too thoroughly instilled In the
youth of the land, und thai this is due to
college training as well as to other causes,
lie said Ihe chief difference between college education in America and In China is
Hint here primary Importance Is given to
Ihe mental training, ami hi China moral
improvement is mnde of flrst Importance-

An Affair of
PURE BUSINESS

Advertising is not an affair
of scntimant and favoritism.
It is an aflair of pure business, ol dollars and cents—
as much so as buying or selling goods. Advertisers are
after results. They want
the worth of their money.
They aim to reach not only
the greatest number, but also
the best class of readers.
They advertise whore they
find it pays to make known
their wants and their wares.
To secure the worth of their money in Southern British Columbia, advertisers should use
the columns ol
The Daily News,
published at Nelson, every day in the week
except Mondays.
