B. C.\nA CUNDITION OF UNREST.\nof the last general election The next\nthought is that even the Attorney\nGeneralship is a cheup price for politi-\nOAl prostitution. He has the satisfaction of knowing thnt the Government\nrgan in his own constituency told\nthe public a week ago that he was not\nlit for the place. He also knows that\nihe Premier had not the slighast intention of offering him the office until\nhe found that no oue else would take\nit.\"\nIf His Honor is half as solicitious\nfor the public welfare as he professed\nto be wheu he thought it necessary to\nforce Mr. Tnruer out, he will insist\non nn early issue of the writ for the\nelection in New Westminster. The\npresent situation is oue of uncertainty,\nand the effect it nan produced can\nonly be described as that of extreme\ndisquiet. A period should be put to\nit as speedily as possible. Should Mi.\nHenderson succeed in seenring his re-\nelectiou there will bo improvement in\nthe situation, as it would mean that\nthe life ofl the Government was insured until the next meeting of the Legis\n1 iture. From tho business poiut of\nview that would be a point gained.\nThe people would then be free to clear\ntheir minds of the apprehension that\nis now disturbing them and to turn\ntheir attention to the consideration of\ntheir own affairs. At present they are\ntoo much consumed with anxiety as\nto what may happen next. A Ministerial crisis affords excellent entertainment for the politicians, but *he general business of the country suffers by\nit.\nIt is most desirable, therefore, that\ntbo New Westminster election should\nhe hurried. If Mr . Semliu is to cou-\ntinue in office until the Legislature\nmeets in regular session, the people\ncannot know it too soon If Mr. Henderson fails to carry his sent, it would\nmean the resignation of the Government' That at loast is the presumption, and it Mr Semliu should prove\nincapable of so great a virtue as resignation he should be dismissed. In\neither case there wonld necess.itily be\na general election, for it is not likely\nthat any person would nccept tbe responsibility of forming a new Government without the assurance of a dissolution.\nMuch, therefore, is depending on tbe\nNew Westminster election, and until\nit is determined the public mind will\nremain unsettled, to tlie great injury\nof business generally. Mr. Henderson's snecess would afford tho country\nthe relief ol a truce; his defuit wouln\nbring matters to a head, and while for\nthe moment aggravating the evil, would\niu the end clear the uir and bring about\na more Bottled conditiou of things.\nThat would seem to ho thu situation.\nMr.Semlin is probably content to have\nthe uncertainty indefinitely prolonged,\nas in the meautime he is in possession\nand cau partake of such enjoyment ns\ntho posiiton affords. But it is not bo\ngratifying to the country generally,\nand as far aB may be consistent with a\nreasonable exereiBo of his constitutional\nauthority it is to be hoped His Honor\nwill hasten the issue and permit the\ncountry to become restful once more.\nIt has had enough of excitoraent, the\nmore especially ns it has been mixed\nwith apprehension that iu tho absorbing pursuit of their Bohomiug and iu-\ntrigulrig Ministers have neglected those\npublio duties they are paid to discharge.\nVia The Monetary Times, Toronto,\nwe learn that the British Columbia\nFruit Growers' Association are sending a carload of first-class plums to the\nNorthwest. A carload or less of first-\nclass native plums, carefully Ducked\nas these will he. would he welcome in\nNelson, if offered ,\\l a piice within\nthe leacbjof the average family. This\nii supposed to he n fruit Province, yet\nin this not distant corner of it we are\nmade to pay greater than prairie prices\nfor the limited quantity supplied us.\nWhether it is the Association, or the\nrailways, we do not know, but it costs\nmore to eat British Columbia fruit\nat home thau it does abroad.\nTHOSK SUDBURY MINERS.\nEditor of Tho Miner:\nSir\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdIu The Tribune of August 8th\nthere is a delightful contradiction\nwhich will amuse even those whose\nviows coincide with those expressed\nhy the editor of that erratic organ.\nUnder the heading \"Concentrates\" it\niB stated that the men imported from\nSudbury \"by the Nelson District Mine\nOwners Association came in ou transportation furnished hy tho Canadian\nPacific. The pass was made out, etc.\"\nOn tho editorial p.ige it is stated\nthat \"Their transportation from Suu-\nbury to the mim cost in the neighborhood of $500.''\nThe word transportation is equiva-\nle n here to a free Dass iu fact.\nTho Tribune is particular in pointing out that n \"pass\" was made out.\nWho then benefits by the $500 which\nthe editor estimates as the cost of\ntransportation? Not the C. P. R. lor,\naccording to The Tribune's reporter\nthe C. P. R. gave the meu a pass.\nI has endeavored lo obtain\nsome light on the meaning of this\nenigma. All that could be elicited\nwas that tbe men's fare was paid tor\nin hard cash before before they started\nfrom Sudbury and that The Tribnne\neditor's brain, after the effect of a two\ncolumn sermon, is perhaps a little\nclonded. I would suggest that a\nwalk along the C. P. R track iu the\ndirection of Robson might help to\ndrive away the cobwebs from that\nmaster intellect. But if it wore not\nfor these ridiculous inconsistencies\nwho on earth would take the trouble\nto read The Trbune?';,'\nThe following which I clip fiom the\nVauconverWorld shows that the ianie of\ntheTribune and tis head push has reached theOoast: \"The Nelson Tribune does\nuot attich importance to the recent\nmeeting of the Boards of Trade of the\ninterior, ^which Jwas !_heldj last week\nat Hossland.

It \ufffd\ufffdvill ho necessary shortly to\nopiii the trail owing to the urowiug\nimportance of the mines iu that .district. Hut the land which includes\nthat portion of BillAA street his been\ndecided by the Government to the\nHall Mines Limited, and they now\npropo'U to sell n portion of it to the\ngas 01 ipany. Now if the trail is re-\nopinio 1 that portion of the route which\nran through Silica streot will have to\nbo changed. The only other possible\nalternative route would carry it not\nonly through tho C. P. yard hut along\npatt ot the siding and track. I* must\nbo patent to everyone that this will\nmean serious ir.r.ovenionce to thn\npublic who use tbe trail Tlio C\nP K nanoot bo expected to '>rnuk up\nfroijtut trains that happen to be on\nthe tiding in order to let people pass.\nA\ufffd\ufffd.n.i people do uot want to be dodging engines and oars In order to pass\nto tho mines. Api.rt from all Ihis is\nthe danger to the public an4 the question whether tho Government would\never graut the new right of way.\nOlearly tbo most convenient ronte\nwool I be Hint of tne old trail, namely\nalong Silica streot. This route the\npnblio had a right to. The City Council maintain that that right still exists\nnud in endeavoring to assert that right\nthev aio but studying the convenience\nof tho public.\nTbe wharf question is ft little more\ncomplicated. A promiueut citizen\ntold The Miner tht.t tho sugge tion\nthat the 0; ft Bw would like to see\nthe Hull street: wh\ufffd\ufffdrf abandoned ftnd a\nnew wharf built at the foot of auotber\nstreet, ou both sides of which the C.\nP R. owns the land, is childish The\nC. P. R. havo spert nearly tlfi.OOC on\ntheir own wharf, and it would sutlice\nfor nil their wants. Why should ihe\nuse tho Government (or rather the\nOity) wharf! It is questionable\nin the event nf wharf dues being\ncharged, whether they will do so in\nnay case. The mud flat which runs\nout from the foot of Josephine street\ntn tl.e 0. P. K. wharf would moko the\no st of a new wharf a heuvv item in\norder to allow boats to roach it ftt low\nwater.\nWhat the City really want to know\nis whether they are to own tlie land on\nwhich the wharf is built? Those win\naro lirerestert in the Nelsou Saw and\nPlaining Mills Ltd., naturally reseut\nthis as it might raise the question as\nto what their rights nre if any. As\npointed out lo Thn Miner, Tbe Tribune seems :o take a keen interest in\nsafe gunrdin'4 tbe Saw Mill from the\npersistent enqnir.es of the City Path\ners. What is Iho reason of tbis? Another citizen went so far as to suggest\nlhat it was ihe Nelson Saw Mill that\nreally wanted the wharf moved, in\nfact that ohe who is interested in thnt\ncompany had suggested this plan to one\nof the Aldermen. Tho Saw Mill's title\nto the land whioh it is built is somewhat vague. It would oertniuly be\nin tho iuterests of that oompany to\nacquire an indisputable title to the\nland they new occupy and poBsibly ft\nlittle bit more.\nAt any rate the Oity Council seem to\nknow what thoy are about and, some\nof tbe members nt least, are keeping\nthait \"weather eye\" on other companion\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdmid their agents\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdthan the C.\nP.

(However, there was\nnothing in it ind he wrote to friends\niu Nelsou to see if there was anything\nhere he conld d i. He was expected\nto arrive in Nel-nn any i-ay.
