NO. 97 *PH0NE_ LINE City May Inaugurate a Service Across Lake SUPPLY ELECTRIC POWER NEW MOVE MADE BY CITY COUN- CII-—QUESTION OF GREATLY IMPROVED CITY WHARF ALSO TAKEN UP—IMPROVEMENT OF THE STREETS. The chief matter coming before thel city council la&t night was a propo->ed extension of the llguilng system across the lake coupled with a municipal telephone service and the mayor was au- uiomeu to prepare a report as to the probable cost of in_tallatlou and provable revenue thereby derivable. Another Important question was twit of extending and Improving the city wharf in which it is likely the city wlU have the oo-operatlon of the C. P. R. and ot tne Great Northern. There were present mayor Gillett, aldermen Hume, McMorris .Irving, Selous and Rose. After the minutes had been read and the finance committee s report adopted, the question of obnoxious weed, came up. On thi- ths city engineer reported ulat lie luu a man at work CU-..1..,, d.w.i obnoxious weeds an over uie city, lt was then pointed out that there were many obnoxious weeds In the 0. P. K. s right of way and a resolution was pass- , ed that the C. P. R.'s attent^n be called to the municipal by-law govertiing this and that they cut down the weeds complained of. The cost of the improvement on Front street was then taken up and the city engineer reported that the macadamize tion of Front street had cost 88 cencs a cubic yard or a tolal cost of $350. This, however, included.the Improvements on Lake atreet, which actually coat 160. Hence the net cost would be under 75 cents per cubic yard. The city engineer declared tbat the system employed of ■' using peooie and gravel would prove to be. equally good aa broken atone which Is far more expensive. a i.e chief of the fire department made his usual report .Including in it, however, a recommendation for the removal of the flre hall from its present site, which is inconvenient. Chief Deasy reported that tbe present building was out of repair and recommended tne location of the future fire hall on the southwest corner of Silica and Stanley streets. The council thought the question could not betaken up this year at all events, Me-srs. Isaac & Hlnton, of the Nelaon Iron Foundry, Intimated in a letter that they were about to erect concrete wall buildings and wauled to buy granite from the city at $1 n yard for the foundation of the proposed building. The permission asked was granted subject to the approval of the city engineer. J. P. Hughes laid a system of numbering the city before the council. Shortly the system is that of having a hundred numbers to each block and having all blocks in similar localities of the same hundred. This, he claimed, would facilitate the finding of houses by the fire department, by the mall carrier and by the tradesmen's deliveries. A resolution was passed that the former by-law governing the numbering of tne city be amended so as to adopt the system now suggested, known as the Philadelphia system. .-.-.erman Selous gave notice of the introduction of the necessary amendments at the next meeting of the council. On the motion of alderman Selous, seconded by alderman Rose, Mr. Hughes was granted permission to number the city on the Philadelphia system at 50 cents a number .the numbers used to be of the regulation size, thee inches, and of the regulation metal. Where houses had already suitable figuring of the regulation size tne expense of renumbering will be met by the city. Mayor Glllett, reporting on tbe city dock, said that the C. P. R. and Great Northern had made tentative offers to help the city in improving the dock. The idea Ib to extend the T at the end of tne wharf, now 80 feet, to 200 feet, so as to accommodate the Kuskanook and also leave room for the other steamers, one at either side. Also the pier shoufti be broadened. The cost of these Improvements and the necessary repairs would be about $.000. The cost of putting In over the present planking a road way 14 feet wide, with COxfiO feet at the end would be $800. With the other repairs necessary this would be brought up to $1000. The matter was left In the hands of the mayor for further nepitiatlon and reoort, Mayor Glllett said there was power to spare* and be would recommend thnt the city electrician be sent across the lake and ascertain how many people would take light and telephone service from the city. Alderman Irving said he thought the electrician should firtt ascertain the coat for each mile of poles and wire plus the cost for a cable across tbe lake. Alderman Hume thought that ranch- f ers would also take power as well aa light and telephone-. Mayor Gillett said there was an ap plication for light and power from F. M. Black on his ranch which ls about three mnes from the olty. The mayor was authorized to get a report made upon the subject. City engineer Lawrence reporting on the Whitewater flume said the Hume had been broken in four places by trees, further that a portion of the flume had been burned. Also that the dam on Cottonwood lake was in a bad state of repair. Whenever a severe frost occurred tbe burnt portion of the flume, which was reduced in height .froze to the top and no water came through. Last winter this occurred three times. There was plenty of cedar growing close to the Cottonwood lake dam so that repairs would not be excessive, alderman Rose asked whether city engineer MeCulloeh had reported on the amount of rental fixed for the use of the city's hoisting plant by the mayor. Tue city clerk said no report had been made. luayor Gillett Baid that the city engineer had fixed the rental at $16 a month. There had also heen a question of his stealing good rock from the city. He considered that he had Improved the city by doing what he had done. i nere had never been an application to reserve such rock since he had been in the council, no wthree years. The rate by-law for the year was finally accepted. City clerk Wasson stated that the collection of the road tax had been started upon. Tbe scavenging department then came under review. This was not paying mainly because of the cost of collection. The mayor recommended the collection of arrears both of scavenging and of olectric light be entrusted to some one man on a percentage basis which, he thought, would remedy matters. The question was referred to the finance committee for report. The council then adjourned until Monday, August 20.

Chicago, Aug. 12—The str ke of the tele- ftfiph op00,_00 a y?ar and probably more to the expenses of the A.P. The A.P. Is mutual In Its charncter, makes no profits .ind hag no surplus fund out of which such a sum could be pad. Any such Increase must of necess.ty be levied back upon the newspapers na' a part ot their weekly assessments. As genera; manager I hnve no power to mike such an Increase either In salaries or aa- Hc.5ni.nts without authority from the board of d rector., and it is obviously impossible to call this board together in the time nnmed. The board consists of 15 members throughout the entire country. At the same time, acting under authority heretofore granted me by the board or directors, I shall be glad at any t me to meet a committee of our own operators and confer with them respecting hours of service and compensation with a view to making Borne recommendation to the next meeting ' of the board of d rectors, which shall meet any fair or just expectations of those tn our operating service. Even were I more free to act, I th'nk you must agree with me that a question of thu magnitude should net be pressed to a conclusion within the fimits of a few hours and without an opportunity for consultation between myself and representatives of our operating department.

Toronto, Aug. 12—The death took place last night of Dr. James Alexander McLellan, formerly of the Ontario normal college at Hamilton. He was a oollesgne of Dr. Edgerton Ryerton and an educational pioneer of Ontario, He was born in Shubenacadle, N. S., in 1832. Watts, the well known Watts- burg mill man, said: "For somo months past the supply of cars for the removal of lumber on the Crow's Nest Pass railway has been very Inadequate. The Interior mills had an abundance of orders, but through this scarcity of cars they could not ship, yet at the same time the coast manufacturers were supplied with cars and were enabled to WHIP the northwest territories with lumber. Concurent- ly Interior mills were receiving cancellation orders owing to their inability to ship. The recent stringency in the «onej market has curtailed <»Mump- tion of lumber, stocks to the prairie are very large and there I now practically no demand „ consequence of this state o affairs many of the biggest Interior lumber concerns h»ve al ready closed down and Us feared that all the mills wirMve to do likewise very shortly. Moreover, as the stocks of logs are larger than usual logging operations this winter are expected to be comparatively insignificant. BIG SUBSIDY Canada Prepared to Take an Important Part ATLANTIC 4-DAY SERVICE PACIFIC CABLE IMPROVES IN IITS EARNING CAPACITY—BRITISH TRADE EXPANDING GREATLY UNDER PREFERENCE TARIFF- SIR WILFRID'S HEALTH. Ottawa, Aug. 12.—Canada la prepared to shoulder half of the total subsidy required for the Atlantic end of the projected fast all-red line. The company of capitalists behind the enterprise have arranged for an annual subsidy of $2,500,000 for the proposed new four- day service between Canada and England. The Canadian government through sir Wilfrid Laurier has promised to pay half if this amount, $1,250,000, leaving the imperial government, Australia and New Zealand to pay the other half. That arrangements will finally be effected among the interested parties to the agreement looking to the realization of the enterprise is confidently expected by tbe premier. Delays in working out the details of the scheme are, of course, necessary, but the assurance given by member- of the i.n- periai government wheu the nutter wis discussed at ihe colonial conference indicative of tho desire of the Carapbell- Bennerman government to have established a direct fast transportation line connecting Great Britain with Canada. Australia and New Zealand, still bold good, and when lord Strathcona returns to England the prospect Is .that some definite announcement will w made by the imperial authorities looking to the consummation of the scheme. At the present time sir Wilfrid Laurier is one of the hardest worked men in Canada. In addition to being prime minister with its pressing duties, voluminous correspondence, receiving deputations and choosing cabinet ministers, he Is also minister of Inland revenue, marine and fisheries, railways and canals, trade and commerce and the interior, and this comes after the round of his public duties in connection with the imperial conference, with" but two or three days rest since his return. Fortunately his health and strength are proving equal to the task which would be too much for most men of younger years and much more physique. The report of the Pacific cable board for the year ending March 31, which has just been issued, shows a gross message revenue of .ClltMOl against £94.- 456 for the previous year. Tlie entire net revenue was £113,510 ,expenditure i-j_,395. After providing for interest and sinking lund.the deficit is £54,923, compared with £72.556 for the previous year. For the year now current the traffic revenue is estimated at £103,000, deficit at ~uj,369. It is given out by the Oxford tariff commission that under the Canadian preference there has been a fourfold increase in the exports of British refined sugar to Canada since 1900, the exports of jams, confectionery and preserved fruits have increased fivefold. Claims to South African war medals from civilians engaged in thelate campaign will not be entertained after December 1, 1907, by the war office. An application for these decorations before that date should be addressed to the secretary of the war office, London, accompanied by full particulars as fo the nature of the duties nerformed, the corps to which the applicant was attached, with the names of the officers under whose immediate orders he served. A local broker estimates that when Ottawa went crazy over Cobalt, between ten and eleven million dollars was Invested in these mining enterprises. Twenty thousand dollars has so far been collected for the purpose of rebuilding the Sacred Heart church, which was destroyed by fire early in the season. The work of rebuilding the destroyed edifice will not be commenced till the late autumn. INCREASED SUBSIDIES. Dominion Treasury Will Not Disgorge Until Text of Bill Received. Ottawa, Aug. 12.—Although a press dispatch announces that the royal ascent has been given to the B. N. A. Amending Act the financial department has not received any word to that effect. It ia officially announced that no steps will be taken to send out cheques for the increased subsidies to the various provinces until the text of the bill has been received, in order that the dominion may be sure that Its Interests have been fully safeguarded, so that the provincial treasurers will have to possess their souls in patience for some weeks.

Today's race was ou a triangular course of seven mile sides, tho open being near tlie the mouth of tlio Genesee river.

A limit of 5 hours had been set on all races and will be ample lime If there is sufficient wind lo justify a terminal contest. In today's race, all thu bouys were left eastward. At first lhe Seneca was lo windward but some clever manoeuvres on the part of skipper Jarvls ousted her from thii. advantageous liosllion and tlie defender was kepi to leeward despite all skipper Hanlan's effoits to win back again, The two bouts reached back and across the line until the whistle blew 1 o'clock and then they passed over so closely that the Allele's bowsprit crossed ine line about 5 seconds ahead, both boats getting away at the whistle. The Adelo kept weather guage and blanketed the Seneca for a while so that her skipper was forced to bear away a little. DEATH OF COLONEL DEACON. Lindsay.

Hi. telegraphs recently doubled and ln some cases almost trebled Its charges for an alleged Associated Press service under definite promise of a "greatly improved service," The service has not been Improved in any measure commensurate with the increased cost. Publishers ot British Columbia dally papers are simply being compelled to pay for what they do not get. For calling attention to this state of affatra, C. P. R. apologists allege that we are guilty of "abusing the C. P. R." This is really remarkable reasoning. Why should the press of British Columbia remain silent under exactions of this nature and if they dare to voice a complaint be accused of heaping abuse upon the big railroad corporation. If the C. P. R. telegraphs made an honest effort to carry out its contract It might fairly be said that to continue to find fault would savor more of abuse than of legitimate criticism. There is no sound reason why the C. P. R. should be Immune from criticism. It Is a s.ml- publlc organization that has been most liberally dealt with by the people of Canada and when it undertakes to supply a news service for Canadian papers and signally falls to fulfill its contract there is not the slightest reason why the sufferers should not endeavor to shame the corporation into doing better. Private remonstrances affect nothing whatever and it is only by interesting the public tn the matter that there ls any likelihood of redress. ■A SNAP- Two Corners on Stanley and Observatory Streets.

Wf_ THOMSON Bookseller and Stationer • VJ• I I IV/HlU\/l» Baker Btrset, Nelson Plione - We believe the visit of the British, journalists may aid somewhat ln a campaign that this paper has conducted since Its inception for a better news service tor Canadian papers. Without exception the visitors expressed surprise at the miserable telegraphic service palmed off on Canadian newspapers. They all noted with regret the entire absence of news of the old land and the Araerlcanftone of every news item published lu the Canadian papers from telegraphic sources. Promises of cordial support In any effort made from this end to improve matters were freely accorded and .moreover, several of the most influential ot tho visiting Journalists agreed to take the matter up on their return to London and to see what could be done to organize an imperial news service. We may rest assured that there never will be any Improvement lt the Canadian papers meekly decide to accept just what the C. P. R| telegraphs may chose to work oft upon them. If it be "abuse" to And fault with the C. P. R. telegraph service, for which we are now compelled to pay almost three times as much as formerly, we can only say that this paper Wi.. keep right on in its offense, until Its object is gained or lt is forced to suspend publication Wc seek no favors from the C. P. R'. telegraphs, we are quite prepared to pay promptly all legitimate charges, but we must Insist upon a square deal anil some exercise of Intelligence ln the handling of the news. If the C. P. R. lie not ln a position to handle efficiently a press news service It should wake up lo the fact and bring its telegraph department up to the standard of other departments, which compare more than favorably with the best railroad practice on the American continent. EDITORIAL NOTES. We commend the following extract from Joseph Popes life of sir John A. Macdonald to those torles wbo can see nothing but evil ln sir Wilfrid Laurler's deliberation in reconstructing Ills cabinet: "This, (sir John's quality of caution) was illustrated ln many ways; for example, in his choice of colleagues, and in his administration ot patronage. It ls very easy for a prime minister to invite a man to enter his cabinet, but It ls very difficult to repair a hasty selection. It is equally easy to All a vacant oftlce, but the step once taken Is practically Irrevocable. It has often been remarked by those who »re not prime ministers that, by promptly Ailing vacancies as they occured, he would have saved himself much trouble and annoyance arising from the difficulty of deciding between the merits and claims of numerous aspirants thereto. Such a course might have saved him embarrasc- ment, but, in his opinion, delay was often advantageous to the state, and to the party Interests he wan commissioned to guard. He preferred as a general rule to "hasten slowly," to weigh well all the circumstances, to keep his hand free as long as possible, and to act only in the light of the fullest knowledge he could gather. Such a course, he has observed, often saved him from the disastrous consequences of hasty and ill- considered action. He was a Arm believer ln the efficacy of time as a solvent o( many difficulties which beset his pain, and his wisdom In this regard has time and again been exempUAed,' TO RAISE FUNDS. Twenty Thousand Club are Making a Final and Supreme Effort. Something of the nature of the work which has been accomplished recently by tbe 20,000 club ot this city ln advertising Its resources far and wide has recently come home to the public of Nelson In various ways. It has been seen that whatsoever mistakes that club may have made in its Inception that lt lias done good work nevertheless and now ,ln addition, the club ls being run upon business principles under the care of a nactive secretary. The loss of Uie ciub would be a serious loss to the city. Even if there were no advertising done outside and much of such advertising is done although far more remains to bo accomplished, still the very fact of the club possessing a neat building has attracted inside of its portals every day numerous visitors In the town. Once Inside they are given every sort of Information about the district and its capabilities. Many of these visitors* otherwise, would not be able to get any such Information and In consequence would not be so much impressed with the intent possibilities for themselves anil their fortunes In life iu the future of the elty. It Is not too much to say that every week the 20,000 club has attracted four or Ave settlers to the city, directly or indirectly. How much there exlsls the need of further advertising is shown by the British Jonrnalists recently visiting this city. They declared we have all heard of the northwest, that is a familiar word to us. But we have not heard of British Columbia. We have been told, those of us to whom some inkling of the geographical position of the place has penetrated, that the country was no country for a poor man but wc And that you have plenty of room for mechanics and artisans all of whom would b getting from t Sto 16 b day. It you people will advertise your city and your country In Great Britain we see no reason why you should not get all the settlers you want. Or again take that which was told lo the man who went with the Nelson exhibit to the prairie provinces to the effect that Okanagan ' was the whole thing in fruit ranching and wanting to know where Kootenay waa and whether or not lt was a district of tne Okanagan! This will show what yet remains to be done and done constantly, day In and day ont, ln advertising this country. Every settler Ml-A-D'S LINIMBNT CO.. Ltd.

A meeting of the finance committee was held yesterday afternoon and a program prepared for an active solicitation of subscriptions all round the city in order to carry on the work of the club for the remainedr'of the year.

MINERS PINED POR STRIK-NO I_'nton, Aug. 12—Throe doMrs was deducted from the pay check today or each of the 300 miners of the Summit Coil Co., malting a total fine of *8 for each man who took part ln a recent strike contrary to the provision ln the contract with tne state miners' organlzalon. The stilke lasted eight daya and each m'ner was asse_B- ed U a day, or a total or 12400, which goes Into the coffers ot the co.il compnny. 'mils the first time the contract was ever enforced against striking; miners. The Bummlt mine was closed when the men demanded the dlschargre of tne m'ne boss and the company refused! to comply, nil the miners walking out. The ng:eement tletween the mine s and operators pro- vdes for a forfeiture In tho w_y ot a fine for the parties who stop the m'ne In case of labor trouble without first submitting the grievance to the iegu.*ar board of arbitration. The miners failed to observe thlB pait of the agreement and the coal company insisted upon the 11 a day penalty, deducting It from the pay checKs.

S. Taylor, who Is lcoklng arter the case of Nelson against the f«>l*!jfet ratea which are being changed into this city and thus Increasing the cost of living na. been-ln correspondence with the secretary of the board of railway commissioners and is of the opinion that the matter w-ill be taken up very seriously by that body and thnt Nelson stands a very good chance of getting what It hns been striving for these many months past. The following correspondence on the matter is seir-ex- planatory. The first Tetter was addressed by Mr. Taylor to the railway commissioners at Vnncouver on July 31: "We have already had correspondence with you on this m.'.ter. Tho Nelson board of trade desire: (1) To protest against the right of railways to mike rates based on terminal ccast point mtes plus the local rate back to Interior points. The principle, a. a whole, they contest and ask to be heard before any decision !s given In matters now**pend!ng before the commissioners. The Importance of the point raised you, no doubt, recognize and we understand that no such case haa In Canada yet been tried. Tho practice or fixing rates na above has borno and Is bearing very heavily upon this country. The board of trade desires to know when they can be heard upon the above question. (2) The board of trade also Htslie to present a strong case against rates based upon present classifications. This presentation will be a challenge ot present ratea even upon the present princ.plo or fixing such iates. Th's discussion Involves an attack, upon the hearing of which the railway companies will desl.e to be heard and hence we desire to k now Jiow you want tne cuse prepared aod when It wifl possibly be heard. (3) The board also attacks very bitterly somo Isolated oi___ of freight cliai_.es. This also Involves a trial, upon which the railways will requiie to be heaid and, like the last It means dctnlNd preparation, on the part of tho board of trade. We desire full Instinct ons ns to how you want this case prepared and what prpcedure shall bo followed; also wheu and where the same will te heard, A hearing at Nelson, B.C. Is most desired." To this came the following reply, dated from the car Arcnda en rout* to Winnipeg, Aug. 8. and was signed by U. Richardson, secretary to the ccmm'fl-lon: Your letter of 31st July wus received by me in Vnncouver, I am directed by the board to my that It regrets-that Its arrangements requlro It to retuin to Winnipeg directly and prevents it f om visiting Nelson nt piesent.

Austin, Texas, Aug. 12—What is admittedly the most drastic anti-trust law ever passed hy any state legislature becomes effective in Texas today, having been passed at the recent session of the legislature. According to attorney general Davidson, however, reports tbat the act would serve to prevent Texas merchants from handling trust-made goods are not true. The law will be applied only to the agents and representatives of trusts operating in Texas and not to merchants or jobbers buying their goods in the open market. Any trader who is doing his own business may buy and sell trust-made goods without limit. The penalties under the new law apply only to persons or corporations who become agents of trusts under exclusive agreement and wbo willfully and knowingly promote the Interests of trusts or illegal combinations. "The entire purpose and effect of this statute," says attorney general A. W. Davidson, "is to make it a felony for any person or Arm or corporation to organize outside of or within this state, or to carry on or maintain in this state any monopoly or conspiracy in restraint of trade. Experience has demonstrated that our former laws defining trusts, monopolies and conspiracies In restraint of trade and prescribing penalties for violation thereof, were entirely inadequate to meet existing conditions. It was to meet these conditions and to reach those who were active in the creation and maintenance of trusts, as, for Instance, officers, employees and agents of trusts, and not to extend the definition ot trusts to embrace those who purchase trust-made goods, that this statute was enacted. "Further anti-trust Hgtslatlon of this character was the result of the well- known purpose of the trusts of the country to convert and appropriate the torrirbry of Texas for their greed and exploitation. This bill is Intended to reach the officers, agents and employees of these freebooters, and makes it a felony for them to ply their vocations in this state. The purrfshment for the.e malefactors will be 'stripes.' This bill, If strictly Inforced, as It will be, wtll put the stamp of criminality upon the trust magnates and make them outlaws In Texas, to be run down and punlBhcd fn the same manner as.a cattle rustler or a horse thief.

Hot Sprl-gB, Ark., Aug. 12.—Hot Springs today gave an enthusiastic welcome to hundreds of union printers gatnered here for the fifty-third session of the International Typographical uulon, which commenced this morning. Every section of the country is represented ln the great throng ot typos that has swooped down upon the city, lt is estimated that the total nunib.r of d;.e- _,.Ue3 and tnelr lelaaves und f.len_s will reach 3,000, and the ba_ne:a a_d professional men of the city, acting in conjunction with the local typographical union and other bodies of organized labor, have made elaborate preparations for their entertainment. The programme for the opening session included addresses of welcome hy mayor Jodd, chairman Eisele of the business men's league and others, and a response by president Lynch of the International union. According to the report of secretary- treasurer J. W. Bramwood, the total membership of the union Is now 42,- 438. Of the affiliates list-is, (he Ger> man-Americans havo 824 i_e__-'6, the mailers 1,056 members and the Newspaper Writers 46 members. The receipts from per capita tax for the year were fl77.89li.95 and trom assessments 11,571,490.89. Beneats drawn irom the strike fund during the year amounted to »1,407,719.66. The total receipts for the last vear were 11,804,950.56, as against $984,744.54 In 1906. A wide range ot activities are covered in the annual report of the president James M. Lynch o( Indianapolis. Chief of these Is the fight for the eig_t- hcus day, which has neen successfully waged liy the printers of the country during the last tew years. "The strike toll haj been lc.luc;d to comparatively inconsequential proportions in all but a few cities," siys president Lynch. "In these centers of agitation and trouble, such as Philadelphia, Buffalo, Detroit, St. Paul and Louisville, we are still stubbornly opposed bv the employers conducting what are lo us untair offfflces, and we ate just as stubbornly contesting for the recognition of the eight-hour day." One of the Important matters to he considered ls the report of the committee appointed at last year's Co.o- rado Springs' convention to devise ways and means for the establlsnineut oi a pension system tor superannuated and incapacitated members. It ls announced that the fight on the Los Angeles Times, admittedly the foremost opponent of union labor In the west, will be continued with greater earnestness than ever betore. During the last year the Los Angeles union haa leceived J5.6C0 for use in this struggle. Efforts to stamp oat tuberculosis among printers will be continued as in the past by means of the Union Printer's Home at Colorado Springs, where hundreds of victims ot the "white plague" have been cared tor and restored to health. As an evidence of presperity now obtaining among the printers of the United States and Canada, statistics have been presented to the convention showing that the average wage per hour is over twice as much as received by European printers. According to these figures, the average wage ln this country is 45 cents,' in Gteat Britain 18 cents, ln Germany 14 cents and France 13 cents per hour.

A ball and numerous excursions to points of interest In the vicinity of Hot Springs will round out the week. A unique feature of the convention will he the pirates' reunion. The pirates are not bold bucaneers of the seas, but "tourist prints" who, in the old days when all type was set by hand, roamed about the country from one end to the other. Many well known editors and publishers are now enrolled among the pirates. FRANCE AND MOROCCO. French May be Forced Into a War of ■ Conquest. Paris Aug. 12.—While it ls officially declared that the French government will not extend the scope ot Its action in Morocco beyond what was communicated to the powers .namely, to confine it-If to the restoration of order and theorganlzation of the International police, it may be significant of a possible change In the attitude of France that she has declined to agree to theinvl- tatlon of Spain to send a new joint note to the powers reaffirming the solldarits ot the views and actions of the two governments. Without doubt France desires to keep within the terms ot the Algeclras convention, but she ls reluctant to join Spain in a new note to the powers, in the face of the situation which may force her hand. For the moment, however, it is declared that even the dispatch of French troops to Morocco h;s not been decided upon. The mobilizations In Algeria and at Toulon, it is explained are precautionary measures with the view of having more effective men ready ln the event of a sudden emergency. The section of the press which Is convinced that France must assume the task of putting an end to the existing anarchy in Morocco, believes it to be the duty of the government not to try to delude either Itself or the world with the belief that to establish permanent order In Morocco, tbat country must be conquered as Algeria was, mul that in order to ao- compluh this the tonus ot ..'WW mart be freed from ^ res'.ilc.ions of t- Algeclras convention. Therefore, the papers argue, the powers should induce Germany to give her consent to the conquest of Morocco, nnd that then France must prepare tor a long campaign. Of course the natural sequel to the conquest, the ahsorbtlon of Morocco Is not concealed. "How otherwise can France s bill be paid?" tbe papers ask.

One House Alone Reports an Increase of Treble Its Output. One evidence of many of the Increasing prosperity of Nelson is that afforded by one of Its wholesale houses, that of J. A. Macdonald, dealing In wholesale confectln _ry and fruit. It Is but a short Ume since wholesale confectionery was started by Mr. Macdonald, but already his business has increased to such an extent that he has enlarged his premises to something like four times Its previous floor space. This has been done by taking In the whole of the floor above, formerly occupied by The Daily News. Here will be stored the manufactured product and here also will be placed a part af the factory. A portion of the floor will be taken up by a sample room where will be shown fancy cases for confectionery, as good, Mr, Macdonald claims, as anything that can be got outside and at as reasonable rates. A new line is that of fancy biscuits of which the first car load wilt be brought in tills week. The increase of business this year Is so great, having, of course, been more pushed, that its volume is expected to be three times that of last. QUEBEC POLITICS.
