V. & E. Bill\na Stage\nStubborn Opposition Developed by C.P.R.\nand Conservatives-Further Trouble\nis Expected Tomorrow\n[Special to The Dally News]\nOttawa\/June 211.\u2014_i]_e Victoria, Vancouver & Eastern bill was up again today at tho railway committee. This\nwaa tLe fourth lime which it has heen\nunder consideration, On the three previous days little or no progress was\nmade. The bill asks tor such an amendment as would guarantee to the company all that the provincial statute purported to give so that those who put\ntheir money into the project would he\nsafeguarded. A similar clause as that\narranged tor this bill was put in the\nSlmllkameen, Nicola __ Kamloops railway bill without any opposition, yet\nwhen it was suggested lor the present\n[bill, It was met with sIuimoiu resistance.\nThe report of the suh-comiulttee,\nwhich had the clause undor consideration was received today, lt said that\nthe clause was sufficient to legally meet\nall that was required. But as soon as\nthe report was presented Mr. Foster\ntook exception to the clause on its merits and with Mr. Foster was Mr. Fltz-\npatrick. No argument was advanced\nagainst the bill. There was no argument to ho found against it. The whole\nopposition was either the raising of legal points to give the lawyers time lo\n\u25a0talk or the (fettles, klud of quibbling.\nToday Mr. Ayiesworth appeared along\n\u2022Willi Mr. Hal McGlvern, in favor of the\njbill. Mr Duncan Ross called up Mr.\nAyleswonth, who was heard in favor of\nthe amendment to the bill.\nMr. Ayiesworth gave a history of the\nlegislation which was first passed in\n18S7 by the British Columbia legislature\nThe ttrovlricial statute declared it to\nbe a work for the general advantage of\nCanada. From that time the Incorporators had to come to the dominion for\nWhatever legislation was necessary. The\ndominion now controlled the work. No\nextra powers were asked. What the\ncompany desired was to retain that\nwhich they had About two million dollars had been expended on the road.\nMr. Fitzpatrick said that the company\nshould not get any more privileges than\nit had. He suggested a long legal amendment which would prevent the company\nrunning a telegraph business, which\nwould prevent any changes In the route\nof the road made necessary through engineering difficulties or to obtain better grades, which would prevent the expropriation of lands, and so far as It\nappeared, would merely give the company power to expropriate lands under\nthe Dominion Act and not under the\nprovincial statute.\nMr. Ayiesworth said, speaking for\nhimself, he would nol say where they\nwould stand If they accepted Mr. Fltz-\npatrlck's amendment. He asked that\nthe clause wliich the sub-committee had\nreported, should be adopted.\nMr Fitzpatrick said that he dosired to\nlob the company of all powers except to\nbuild a railway.\nMr. Fltzpatrlck's amendment was lost\nby 62 for to 58 against, and the clause\nwas then carried.\nIn reference to the dip into the United\nStates territory, so as to avoid the\nmountains, Mr. Ross explained the load\nwas going to be built to develop trade\nin British Columbia and not to carry\ntrade away from lt. No one would suggest the Chinese policy ot the closed\ndoor to any other point of the dominion\nexcept British Columbia. Mr. Drinkwater haB suggest_d a route for this\nroad whldb. was to carry it over the\nCascade mountains, 6000 feet high.\nWhen the C. P. R. wanted to build a\nroad In British Columbia they wanted a\nland and cash subsidy, but they though,\nthat all that was necessary for the V.\nV. & E. was to draw a blue line across\nthe mountains, but Mr. Drinkwater was\nnot employed to draw plans for the V.\nV. & E. The engineer of the road. Mr.\nKennedy, was engaged for that work.\nAt the suggestion ot Mr. Emmei-Bon,\nthe promoters accepted an amendment\nthat no connection would be made with\nthe United States system except by the\napproval of the government In council.\nMr. Drinkwater said that the reason\nwhy the C. P. B- was opposing this\nroad was that by the V. V. & E. taking the easy route by passing through\nUnited States territory, a million of dollars would he saved in construction as\ncompared with the Columbia & Western, which was a C. P. R. line and\nwhicli had to keep within Canadian territory.\n\u25a0Mr. Wrightman\u2014You have given your\ncase away now and given the true reason why the line passed through United\nStates. (Laughter.) \",\nMr. Kennedy asked what subsidy tho\nColumbia - Western got.\nMr. Drinkwater\u2014Twenty thousand\nacre, a mile. The building of the Columbia & Western cost about $40,000 a\nmile.\nMr. Prlngle-Can't you get a dominion\ncharter for an easier grade.\nBUiuioia' \"\u00ab\u2014\nNELSON, B. 0., WEDNESDAY, JUNE  21, 1905\nMr. Drinkwater said the Cana-dla.-\nPacific wanted to stay ln Canadian territory.\nMr. Ross contradicted this and showed\nwhere the C.P.R. was running through\nthe United States.\nMr. Drinkwater went on to show how\nthe C. P. R. waa progressing In British Columbia and predicted a gloomy\nfuture for the province If the V. V. &\nE. were bulk, as it would not go to the\ncoast. There was no guarantee as to\nthe road being built to the coast. Mr.\nDrinkwater was talking when time was\ncalled and the committee adjourned until Thursday. The third clause was\nthen under discussion.\nMr. Slfton was present and supported\nthe bill. Among those Who voted for\nplacing the monopoly on British Columbia against railway competition was W.\nF. McLean of South York. There was\nnot a single conservative who voted for\nthe V. V. & E. bill today, of the 58 all\nwere liberals.\nARMISTICE IS LAGGING\nJAPAN   RELUCTANT   TO   FOREGO\nMANIFEST ADVANTAGES\nSUGGESTED THAT DELAY IS CONSEQUENT ON JAPAN'S DIPLOMACY\nSt. Petersburg, June 20.\u2014The only\nhope for an armistice pending the\nmeeting of the peace plenipotentiaries\nseems to rest with president Roosevelt,\nand even that hope is considered to be\nslender. So far as known the president\nhas not taken a positive step in this\ndirection. The impression here continues strong that Japan only with reluctance can be induced to forego the advantages of the strategic position of\ntoday which is regarded as being altogether favorable lo field mnrshal Oyama,\nand agree to a suspension of hostilities\nfor at least six weeks. During that\ntime thousands of reinforcements can\nreach general Llnevltch apd Vladivostok can be strengthened with munitions and military supplies with which\nto stand a siege.\nIt Is suggested that Japan has deliberately planned to postpone the meeting long enough to give Oyama a\nchance to administer to Russia a fresh,\ndefeat on land and so rob the war party\nIn Russia of their last card and thus\nfacilitate au acquiescence with Japan's\npeace terraB.\nSAYS IT WAS DESERTION\nBUT JURY \"BRINGS IN VERDICT OF\nMURDER.\nDEVELOPMENTS IN THE fRAGEDY\nIN PLYMTON WOODS.\nHalifax, June 20.\u2014The coroner',? jury\nIn the Plymton tragedy, has brought in\na verdict tliat May Ward, the six-year-\nold girl found dead in the woods, came\nto her death by suffocation at the hands\nof Mrs. Hope Young, and while the evidence was strong against Kingsley Mel-\nanson as being party to the death of\nthe said May Ward, the'jury did not feel\njustified in holding Melunson responsible for the child's death.\nTlie authorities are asked to investigate Melanson's connection with the\nmurder, information has been sworn\nagainst Mi's. Hope Young and Melanson,\nboth of whom are now under arrest on\nthe charge of murder. Tlie autopsy\nshowed no sign of food in the stomach\nof the child. This goes to disprove tha\nevidence of Mrs. Young, who claimed\nto have left the children at 5 o'clock ou\nFriday evening each with a piece of\n\u2022bread and corncake.\nRAILWAY COMMISSION.\nColin F.

Bowen, United States\n-minister to Venezuela, and the exoneration of assistant secretary of state Francis B. Loomis, of the allegations brought\nagainst him are directed by president\nRoosevelt, In a letter addressed to secretary Taft, made public tonight, approving Mr. Tuft's report on his findings\nand conclusions in the case. The president warmly arraigns minister Bowen,\ndeclaring that his conduct \"is especially\nreprehensible\" in that he asked one of\n'his witnesses to enter the employ of a\ncertain company for the purpose \"in\nplain words of stealing\" documents\nwhich he hoped might incriminate Mr.\nLoomis, aud that Mr. Bowcn has \"evidently for many months, Indeed, for the\nlast two years,\" devoted himself \"to\nhunting np scandal and gossip until it\nbecame a monomania\" uiut caused him\n\"to show complete disloyally\" to the\ncountry he represented.\nThe president says he hud hoped to\npromote Air. Bowen, as during much of\nhis service he had done good work, ibuit\nthat 'his usefulness in tho diplomatic\nservice is now at an end.\nThe president adds that he would direct that Mr. Bowen's resignation be requested but for his statement that ho\nwould consider a resignation an admission of misconduct and the dismissal is\ntherefore ordered. The letter quotes\ncorrespondence and testimony. President Roosevelt states lhat it appears\nthat M. Bowen while minister secured\nthe publication of attacks on Mr. Loomis and furnished to the press documents\npending before tho state department for\napproval, and that his explanation is inexcusable and shows his entire unfitness\nfor the service. \"Even if Mr, Loomis\nhad been guilty,\" says the president,\n\"Mr. Bowen's conduct would be unpardonable.\"\nINANH0E CLOSING DOWN\nCOST    OF    MINING,    FREIGHT    AND\nTREATMENT   TOO  HIGH\nRICH   STRIKES   ON   RAMBLER\n_LA8T CHANCE\nFERNAU ZINC SMELTER.\nNow Well Underway\u2014Operations at the\nFrank Colliery Continue.\nGood progress is being made on lhe\nFernau zinc smelter building., at Frank,\nAlberta.

DEANE_\nA CHANCE TO ADVERTISE.\nIt may seem surprising but nevertheless, it Ib a fact, thnt nowhere do the\nfruit raising possibilities of south east\nKootenay require more steady, persistent advertising,\u2014advertising lhat will\nbring the quickest results,\u2014than at our\nown coast cities.\nJust a year ago when one of the quarterly moelJinfjs of the provincial fruit\ngrowers' association was flrst held in\n\u25a0this city, tlio very officials of that organization, who above ull others might\nliave been expected to have a thorough\niknowlt.d_.ei of what was going un In their\nown province In their particular line,\nhad to confess their Ignorance in the\n\u25a0.past ami their astonishment at, what\nthey Hum learned. Some good missionary work has been accomplished in the\npast twelve months, but much more remains to be done.\nAt the Dominion exhibition ln New\n\"Westminster, next fall, a very much\nlarger number of visitors will he present than we can hope to draw here to\nour own fair. Moreover, among the visitors at Now Westminster, will be many\nInvestors of the class we are anxious\nto attract here. They come to the\nprovince with vague ideas of localities,\nand an excellent opportunity will he\ngiven of properly Impressing them with\nthe possibilities of this district from _\u25a0\nfruit ranching point of view.\nArrangements are already underway\nto make a creditable display from thli\nsection at New Westminster, and those\nin charge should use every effort to\nmako the exhibit a varied and finished\none, anil one that will later on attract\npurchasers here.\nThe board of horticulture of tlie\nDominion fair has offered as a special\nInducement to small fruit growers, extra money prizes for exhibitor., having\nmoderate sized ranches. This Is in addition to the premiums offered for the\nlargo commercial concerns, and should\nresult In the ranchers hereabouts sending in Individual exhibits apart from tlie\ngeneral collection wbh;h is being arranged for. The fruit, Industry wants\nall tho legitimate advertising it can get.\nEDITORIAL NOTES.\nRider Haggard, the well known novelist who haa personally Investigated the\nconditions and character of the farm\ncolonies organized in the United States\nby the Salvatlou army has reported very\nfavorably on the scheme to the British\ngovernment and- as a result similar setr\ntlements may be encouraged hy the\nauthorities in Canada and other British\npossessions. How would it do for the\nSalvation army in H. C. to start a\nfruit ranch near here on the lines which\nMr. Haggard has declared work out\nsuccessfully over the border?\nAccording io a despatch from London\nexperiments conducted for six years in\nthe Cavendish   laboratory,   Cambridge\nuniversity, by .lames Burke,   a   young\nprofessor who worked with    professor\nThompson, have almost certainly demonstrated tho possibilities   of spontaneous generation.   By means of   radium\nand sterilized bouillon placed together in\na test tube, professor Burke   obtained\ncultures presenting many appearances of\nvitality, such as growth and subdivision.\nSeven or eight years ago the announcement was made with a great flourish of\ntrumpets that the theory of spontaneous\ngeneration had been clearly demonstrated, and for a while there   was   a great\ndeal of   excitement   in   the   scieutiile\nworW.   A little later, however, further\nexperiments demonstrated the worthless-\nness of tlie alleged discovery, and the\nscientific law, that Hie can only be produced by life, has remained undisturbed\nuntil tliis present announcement   If as\nalleged, spontaneous generation has been\ndemonstrated,    many    high    scientific\nauthorities havo beeu wrong in the past.'\nMuch lies behind the simple statement\n! of what is now said to have been dem-\n\/ onstrated, and if it is eventually proved\nto lie correct many   scientific   theories\nwill have to be reconstructed.\nThe Daily News learns upon excellent\nauthority that the New York end of the\nMontreal & Boston finances has been\nsatisfactorily arranged and a resumption\nof operations may be looked for within\nthe next thinty days. This will he good\nnews for Greenwood, and for that matter, for the whole province.\nSUPPORT HOME MERCHANTS\nThose Who   Buy   at.   Home   Build Up\nTheir Own Town.\nIn the struggle between home merchants and the big city catalogue houses\nfor local patronage there are Ave points\nthat have weight with the buyer, says\ntlie Dry Good Reporter.\nThese are quality, price, prompt service, courteous treatment, and steady,\nwell thought out local advertising. The\ncontender for patronage must \"make\ngood\" on each of these points.\nCareful investigation will prove that\nweek In aud week out the local merchant surpasses his big city competitor\nin every respect; Value to home institutions is named last but it is firwt in importance The patronage of catalogue\ni houses is a positive detriment to home,\nf schools, churches and all similar enterprises whose support comes bo largely\nfrom tho home business men. Cripple\nthe business enterprises of your town\nand all the institutions for good will\nsuffer.\nBeaten at evory point that should\ncount In legitimate trade pulling, how\ndoes the catalogue house get such a\nlarge patronage?\nBy deceptive methods!\nBait bargains, deceptive values and slick\nadvertising are the chief implements of\ncatalogue houses They buy from tho\nsame sources as tho retailer, making a\nspecial search for \"seconds\" which can\n'be gotten cheaply. These \"^seconds\" or\ninferior grades, they often buy in quantities, but the goods for thousands of\ntheir orders are bought after the order\nis received. Their *'city buyer\" wagons\nare -scurrying about every iniuute of the\nday getting these small \"dabs\" or stuff\nfor individual orders.\nAdded to the cost of the merchandise,\nwhich is on tlie average equal or in excess of what the retailer pays, is the necessarily high freight, express or postage charges ou small shipments. (This\nthey are trying to get the taxpayers to\npay for them with a parcels post.)\nAdded to all this is an excessive selling\nexpense, including high rentals, tlie\ntremendous cost of printing and distributing their catalogues aud their general\nadvertising.\nEvery citizen in or near a community,\nin tbe buying of his merchandise, gives\nhis help and the weight of his Influence\nto one side or the other. Individual Interests and community Interests are on\nthe same side In this struggle.\nWhich ought to win, the catalogue\nhouse, or the home merchant?\nDENY THE IMPUTATION\nGREAT   BRITAIN   NOT  ADVISING   JAPAN AGAINST PBACB\nBUT INSISTS ON   NO MORB  SINKING\nOP  NEUTRAL  SHIPS\nThe prlno list for Nelson's first annual\nflower,  fruit and  vegetable show,  to   be\nheld in the exhibition building hero during\nthe  Dominion  Day  celebration,   on  June\n80th and July 1st, is appended.\" With rour\nexceptions first aind second  money prizes\nfrom 51) centa lo $10 are offered tor each\nexhibit in tho several classes mentioned.\nSpecial'prizes are given by J.

Bogle, now of Winnipeg,\nwho visited Nelson very recently, has\nun interesting article In the Winnipeg\nFree Press ot last week on the varied\nresources of south eastern British Columbia,\nMr. Bogle says;\nIt may havo happened to some to pass\nsuddenly from a busy, hot, dusty street\nroaring with traffic into a oool shady\ngarden redolent with the perfume of\nflowers, whose contrast with tbe ibuwy\nworld outside is accentuated by tbe\nnearness of it. A similar sensation Is\nawakened as ono passes through the valleys of British. Columbia after the\nstrenuous spectacle of the plaiua witb\n.their rush of eager homeseekers. It is\ncurious to watch one of tbe big trains\nshedding off its cargo of human beings\nhero, there and everywhere, on to tbe\nprairie which absorbs them as sand absorbs water, and yet seems n_ vast, as\nsilent, and as empty aa before. Where-\nover tbey all go they do not cross the\nmountains. Along tbe Crow's Nest Pass\nthere might be one or two headed for\nCranbrook, British Columbia's Lumber\ncentre, and a few foreigners going to\nwork in tho coal mines at Ferule, but\ntliere is no movement of population to\nBritish Columbia. Southern British\nColumbia has today all the outward appearance ot au old settled country.\nFourteen years ago the little city of\n'Nelson was one of the rawest spots on\nthe face of tbe earth. Today it is buried in verdure and tbe inhabitants are\nbusy witb their lawns and fruits and\nflowers aud bees. I do not know whether\nthey keep bees or uot. If they do not,'\nthey should. Bees would be an appropriate concomitant of the Sabbath calm\nwhich broods over this supposed-to-be\nmining and trading metropolis With\nthe mining industry we associate ideas\nof excitement uud speculation, sudden\nfortunes, a short life and a merry one.\nBut in southern British Columbia today\nthere is no excitement, there is no speculation, and to be boisterously merry\nwould bo like laughing in church.\nWhat is the meaning of it all? Have\nthe soft breezes of tbe Pacific stilled tbe\ncountry with their languorous embrace\nand sapped the energy of the people? Or\nhas this portion of British Columbia\nwith its $13,000,000 of mineral production annually reached its limit? Are\nthere no more mines in the bills? Are\nthe prospectors who bave deserted the\ncountry never coming back? It is never\nsafe to prophecy about a mining country. Nevada went to sleep for a quarter\nof a century. Then some ouo discovered Tonapah and Nevada woke up again,\nif wo aro to understand the situation in\nBritish Columbia it Is necessary to di-\nvido its metal mining history into three\nperiods. From 1800 to 1895 tho country lived on hope and surface showings\nsaleable at small prices. From 1895 to\n11.U0 the country lived riotously on\nspeculation. Tbe future was capitalized\nand sold at a premium to English and\nCanadian Investors. From 1900 to l'J05\nUie country bas been undergoing a process of steady intensive development.\nThe mining industry of southern British\nColumbia today is upon a foundation as\nsolid ;is a rock. Tbe rivers supply power,\nthe coal mines coke, and the'railways\nbring fuel to the smelters. There Is a\ncomplete industrial chain with a resultant economy of production not surpassed anywhere in tho world. Tbe forming\nof this industrial chain within a decade\nhas been one of tho most stupendous\nachievements iu tbo history of Canadian development. Think of what lt\nmeant. It meant tho building of a railway from cast to west over vast mountain ranges and across mighty rivers. It\ntook brute force to do it. It meant also\nthe harnessing of rivers and the carriage of power thirty to forty miles\nthrough an extremely difficult country.\nIt meant the development of a huge coal\nmine with alts equipment of 1500 to 2000\ncoke ovens always glowing. It meant\ntho building of smelters in the Boundary country to handle well on to a\nmillion tons of ore a year, ore too whose\ncost of treatment had to be economized down to cents per ton. It meant\nwrestling and si niggling with tho very\ncomplicated problem of Rossland ores.\nIt meant facing and overcoming very\ndifficult market conditions In refer-\nonce to the lead ores of the country, lt\nmeant the settlement of labor conditions in the face of thnt post of all new\ncountries, the man who thinks because\nit is a new country ho can legislate out\nof natural law and create a Utopia.\nThat has all been done within ten\nyears.' It was done by meu who were\nface to face with new conditions and\nhad to buy their experience. It was\ndone very largely by Canadians, and It\nis something Canada may well be proud\nof. The railway waa built by a Canadian company, the river was harnessed\nby a Switchman, the coal and coke Industry was developed by a Toronto company, tho Granby copper mines wero\ndeveloped and made productive and profitable by a far-sighted old gentleman\nrrom the province of Quebec.\nThero had to be a pause for results.\nIntensive development had to take tho\nplace of extensive development for a\ntime. But there is still an empire of\nresource., to conquer for Canada in\nSouthern British Columbia This peculiarly favored country has gas, coal, petroleum, Iron oro, mountains of it, lead,\nzinc, silver, gold, copper, water power\nwithout limit, lumber and fruit growing. It cannot stay where it is. It has\nmerely paused for breath, as It were.\nIf we stand off from the details of the\npresent quietude of tho country, and\ngrasp the broad outlliics of Its progress,\nwe realizo at once that its future is Infinitely greater than anything so fnr\nrealized.\nThis territory is of particular interest to the people of tho city of Winnipeg\nnot, merely -because industry is the\ncomplement of agriculture and their\nIntor-rolation necessary to a proper civilization, but also becauso all of British\nColumbia, as far west as tho Cascade\nmountains, Is part of Winnipeg's commercial territory. Nine out of every ten\npeople who think of the territory whose\nresources are to make Winnipeg a great\ncity have their Imaginations limited by\nthe Rocky mountains. That is not as\nit should be, because a great city must\nknow its territory and the business of\nlt, if it is to rule over It.\nGOLD BRICK FROM JUNO\nRESULT OP FIRST CLEANUP 19 VERY\nSATISFACTORY\nANOTHER FROM CYANIDE PLANT TO\nFOLLOW IN  FEW DAYS\nTho importance) to Nelson of tho successful operation of tho mines In the immediate environs of the city Is generally\nappreciated. The benefit derived from a\nmine by Nelson merchants Is In Inverse\nproportion to the distance of a mine from\ntho city, even when It Is within tho sphere\nof Interest of Nelson as a wholesale centre\nof tho district. The loss to tho city by the\ntemporary abandonment of the Silver King\nthe Athabasca and the Venus mines may\nyet bo made good by tho success which la\nalready attending tho development of tho\nJuno.\nThe flrst gold brick from the Juno waa\nbrought down yesterday afternoon and\nsafely deposited ln the offlco of tho Royal\nBank of Canada. When asked on to tno\nresult of this, the flrst cleanup, manager\nM. S. Logan said:\n\"In my position as managing director of\nthe company, I nm not at liberty to mako\nthe returns public. The figure.-, will have\nto eomo in proper order from the head ot-\nflce of the company in Montreal. Rut I\nfeel free to state that the present brick,\n.Mjvhlch Is mado up of the contents or tne\nplates only, will be found to be eminently\nsnlsfactory. A cleanup of tho metal saved\nby tho cyandlo process will follow. Another brick will be brought down in a day\nor so.\"\nMr. Logan, though unable to toll for\npublication the value of tho flrHt gold\nbrick, had no hesitation In admitting that\nIt was finite equal to his expectations, and,\nhe thought, would justify those of his\nfellow-directors and of tho shareholders\nwhen It Is known.\nAbout 20 men are steadily engaged at tho\nmine and mill and everything !s working\nsatisfactorily.\nHALCYON ARIUVTAL.S\nHarry Mcintosh, who has disposed of the\nHoffman house at Rossland and livisod the\nHalcyon Hot Springs sanitarium, has added\nBeveral Improvements to this favorite\nhealth resort and guests fire assured of &\nflrst class service mnd tho hest of attention,\nAmong recent arrivals at the sanitarium\nare: J. llulfour, Lcnnoxville; Wm.

C, WEDNESMif, rftflffi 2i, 1905\nNELSON\nBRITISH    COLUMBIA\nThe Commercial Centre\nand Distributing Point\nfor Southern Kootenay\nReplete in Banking and\nMercantile Houses\nA   Picturesque   City   of\n6000 Inhabitants\nElements Which Contribute to Its Importance\nThe progress of a town or city Is not\n\u25a0to be estimated by the number of its\nbooms, the extent ol its transient or\nperiodical population, nor any o[ the\nother superficial evidences uf life and\nactivity which cannot be otherwise than\ntransitory. Such conditions are by no\nmeans to be relied upon in calculating\na community's advancement and progression towards permanency and municipal stability.\nThe essential elements in civic existence as considered from the standpoint\nof permanency are generally considered\nin the following order: First, location,\nwith a-view largely to mercantile and\ncommercial advantage; second, transportation facilities, both as to export\nand import requirement; third, climate,\nits relation to health, sanitation, equability and desirability. These three\npoints are recognized as the essential\n\u2022elements In a city's permanency and\nshould receive primary consideration,\nwhen any community is made the subject of discussion. So we will readily\nsee wiiy Nelson has achieved her present standing and importance because of\nher aptitude in meeting and fulfilling\nthe great primary conditions of municipal -success and establishment. Transportation facilities are good. The climate is, we might say, betler thau the\naverage. The health of tlie citizens is\ngood. Nature has pointed the way and\nman has followed her directing linger to\na land of rich resources and great possibilities.\nNelson is well supplied with all the\nelements for the comfort, educational\nand religious advantages of its citizens,\nand for the transient the hotel accommodations are much to superior to the\naverage city. The stores of all sorts\nwill compare favorably with those of\nother and larger cities, aud the merchants are noted fur liberality, enterprise and fair dealing,\n\u25a0Nelson Is the government headquarters for the southern district of Wost\nKootenay. The offices of the government agent and gold commissioner and\n\u2022deputy registrar of the supreme court\nand land registry office for Kootenay\n\u25a0Being located here. It is also port of\nentry for Kootenay customs district.\nIt is headquarters for the superintendent, divisional shops, district aud passenger agents of the Kootenay branches\nof tbe Canadian Pacific Hallway, and\nthe western terminus of the Crow's Nest\nPass Railway. It is also the Northern\nterminus of the Spokane Falls & Northern Railway, running to Spokane, 200\nmiles distant.\n\u25a0Nelson is now established as the business centre and distributing point for\nsouthern Kootenay. There are four\nhanks, two daily and one weekly newspaper, two sawmills, sash and door\nfactory, two foundry and machine shops.\nThe prlnicpal industry is the Hall\nMines smelter, which gives employment\nto a large number of men.

The erection of the buildings Is\nthe fulfillment of a promise made by the\ncompany to tho people of Fernle, that\nthey would make Fernle the central point\nof a business, whose future proportions\nnone can at present predict. It Is a guarantee of the permanency of Fernle as a\ncity. Coal mining towns are not usually\nof an enduring character, at least such is\nthe experience In this province, as tmny\ninvestors In real estate In Wellington.\nNorthfield and South Wellington can testify. But the conl area In tliere tlireo\nlast named places, although million's hnve\nbeen made by the owners, Is small, in\ncomparison with that owned within a radius of a few miles of the elty of Fernle.\nThe coal In the Coal Creek valley may be\nsaid to be Inexhaustible. The certainty ot\nmining coal for many generations to come\nand the centralization of the business ln\nthe city of Fernle, is a guarantee of a\ngreat future. It was therefore considered\nright nnd proper (lint tbe erection of these\n.buildings which meant so much tn Kot-nie\nshould be celebrated by appropriate cere-\nmony In connection wth th*\u00bb lavng of lhe\ncorner stone. It Is now some weeks since\nH. Oldlands took the train lor Morns \u2022..*>'\nand there alighting, walked back _.) Fertile In search of a stone whl.ih would answer the requirements of * cftrter stone,\nThe stone wns found, lond.d on a flat car\nand brought into the city where il ...is\ndressed to meet the MK| ui.fii'.iU*. of thr\noccasion. The ceremony w<s n\\._ for 2\np.m. yesterday and cards of Invitation\nwere Issued by the company' to ihelr cf-\nf.vhir and prominent ctM^ns of Fernle\n\"to he 'present on the occn-sloi.\nWh-wi tho appointed uonr i* . o'rioc*\narrived, the platform which had h* en\nerrctcd nbout the corner of the building,\nWas well filled with ladles and _i PtiiMlb.n,\ndressed In oonfovni'ty with th:* event b \u25a0\nregardless of the weather. As a hnppy\naugury, the rain which had heen falling\nIntermittently nil the morning, censed,\nthe clouds rolled up their curtains nnd\nhung In leaden sullenness above the happy\ngathering on the platform.\nThe whole proceedings were under the\nable management of A. H. Wright, thn\nchief engineer of the company. Tho first\nItem on the program wns a prayer by\nRev. Bartlett, rector of Christ's church,\nwho invoked a divine blessing on the Work\nto be carried on In the projected edifice.\nMr. Llndsey's youngest son, a wee tot of\nfive summers or thereabouts. th-\u00bbn rilied\nthe Canadian flag to the stirring strains\nof \"The Maple Leaf,\" by the band. At\nthis juncture Mr. Wright came forward\nwith a metal box in lils hand and i.edres-\nsing tho general manager, s->t(i he was\n\u25a0about to place lt within the tpace In the\ncentre of the corner stone, deslgrnl to\nhold It. He sa(d that It contained a erpy\nof Tho Dally News of Ne'son; the current\nissue of the Fernle Free Press, and a copy\nof -the Hrst issue i>\u00a3 the name paper; u\nChristmas edition oC the Free Pr\u00bbf8, 11(18.\na current copy of Lite ledge; a list cf tlio\npresent officials nf -bo company; a. n.tcry\nof tho company frrtn Its inception to tho\npresent date, and StitliUcs cf the t* r.jinny;\na copy of the records rf tlie h.ni lodge\nA.F. and A.M.; ,a set rt the current Mlver\n25, 10 and 5 cent pieces; also some dominion\ncoins of the dominion, consisting -at b9,\nbills of the .1. t. and ;i denominations.\nMr, Wright then stopped fprwnrd and\nplaced the box within the receptacle prepared  for   It.\nG. Q. S. Lindsey, the general manager of\nthn company, then came forward and\naddressed the large audience present. Mr.\nLindsey Indulged In no flight of oratory,\nbut his address, taken, from a point of\ngeneral manager, waa a most excellent\none. It was clear and incisive and engaged the attention of those present from\nstart to finish. Beginmdjng with a complimentary allusion to tlie presence of tho\nladies, the general manager proceeded to\npoint out the great Importance which surrounded the laying of the corner stone.\nHe stated without hesitation., mat tno\nlaying of this corner stono was the lay.ng*\nof the corner stono of the future capital\nof tho K\u00abootenays, and he felt convinced\nthat t ho Koolenays would eventually he\nthe most important district of the foremost\nprovince of the dominion. Ho regretted\nthe absence or Mr. \"Fernle. ns his presence\nwould have lent additional eclat to tho\noccasion.\nHe then proceeded to give a short history\nof the eoal company and told how la tho\ndays of the 90's much difficulty had been\nmet with in obtaining the necessary capital\nto develop the coal mines. They must not\nforget old friends, however, and one ot\nthe best *ind earliest friends tlie company\nhad was tho Canadian Pacific railway,\nwhich had built Into tho region of tbe\nCrow's Nest and made It possible to market the coal.\nHo gave a few statistics in coniuci on\nwith the outputs and predicted that the\nday was not far distant when the company would be able to supply smelters\nwith coke at a figure which would enable\nmany mines to be developed that wero\nnot at present in existence.

But at the\nsame tune it indicates the unalterable\ndetermination ol the storthing to adhere to the action in dissolving the\nunion with Sweden. The text is aa follows:\n\"lour majesty; Norway's storthing\nrespectfully begs to advise your majesty and, tihiough your majesty, Sweden's\nrtkariag and Sweden's people, as follows:\n\"What has been happening recently\nin Norway is the inevitable result of a\ncomlDination of late political events, and\ncannot be altered, and it is certain lhat\n\u2022neither of the two peoples is desirous of\nreturning to the lormer conditions of the\nunion. The storthing is of the opinion\nthat it ought nol tu reconsider tbe various questions of the constitution and\npublic law that have been brought up\nin your majesty.'a note to the storthing's\npresident iu connection with the resolutions adopted, and on which tlie storthing and the government have already\nexpressed themselves in detail.\n\"Tlio .storthing fully recognizes your\nmajesty's (Difficult position, and never\nfor a moment has doulbtod thai your majesty's decisions are in accordance with\nwhat your majesty regarded as the\nrights aud duties of tbe crown. At the\nsame time, Uie storthing is desirous of\naddressing an appeal to your majesty,\nto the riksdag, and to the people of\nSweden, with the object of contributing\nlo tlie peaceful carrying through of the\ndissolution of tiie union, and tlie safe-\nguaiding of tbe friendship and concord\nof the two peoples of the peninsula. The\nstorthing has seen that tlie resolution\nWhich the storthing felt it to be its duty\nto the fatherland to adopt, declaring\nthe union of the two kingdoms dissolved, has been mortifying to Sweden.\nThat lias never beeu its intention.\n\"What has happened, and what had to\nhappen in Norway, was merely the\nmaintenance of Norway's constitutional\nrights. The Norwegian people never\nintended to assail Sweden's honor. As\nyour majesty's council, May 28th, declared you were uiu.ble to sanction the\nstorthing's resolution for the establishment of a separate Norwegian consular\nservice, and as no Norwegian government could bo obtained by your majesty,\ntho constitutional state of Norway was\nbo far distant tliat tiie union could no\nlonger bo maintained. Upon Norway's\nstorthing, therefore, was imposed the\nnecessity of procuring without delay a\ngovernment for tlie country. Every\nother course was closed; all the more so\nas your majesty's Swedish government\nhad, on April 25th. very explicitly declined to enter into new negotiations\nwith tlie dissolution of the union as an\nalternative iu the event that it was\nfound Impossible to arrive at an agreement in regard to a new form of union.\n\"The storthing, as already staled, and\ntlie Norwegian people do not hold any\nbitterness or animosity against your majesty or the Swedisli people. 'Die statement to tho coutiary, wliich possibly\nhave been uttered on occasions, liave\nwholly and solely been grounded ou the\ndissatisfaction with Norway's position\nin the union, and as that source of bitterness and animosity would disappear\nwilh the dissolution of its union, its effects would also vanish. Ninety years\nof co-operation in material and intellectual labors have awakened in the\nNorwegian people these feelings. They\nno longer occupy a position offensive to\nNorway's national independence. That\nindependence will once more grow apace\nand ensure the entrance of a mutual\nunderstanding between tlie peoples. In\ntlie belief that the Swedish people share\nthese views, the storthing suggests to\nSweden's constitutional authorities that\nthey cuter upon the negotiations requisite for a final settlement on Die dissolution of the union, with the recognition\nof Norway's new status and her sovereign rights,\n\"The storthing Is prepared to meet\nevery fair and reasonable wish that may\nbe put forward to safeguard tlie kingdom's Independence and integrity. Constitutionally the two peoples will hence-\nfoiih be separate, but at the same time\ntlio storthing is fully convinced that this\nwill lead to tiie development of a good\nand trustful relationship for the defence of their mutual Interests If the\nfuture settlement can be obtained without prejudice and bitterness, the storthing Is convinced thut what has happened will prove for the everlasting welfare of Uie people of the north. For\nthe sake of that north, the storthing addresses this appeal to the people of\nSweden, who by their magnanimity and\nchivalry, have attained an eminent\nplace among nations, and with whom\nthe Norwegian people desire most earnestly to maintain good relations.\"\nNEWS NOTES OF GRAND FORKS\nQuestion of City Officials Still Excites\nPublic Mind.\nISpecIal to The Dally News]\nGrand Forks, June 20.\u2014An interesting session of the city council was held\nlast evening at which a most representative gathering of citizens appeared in\ntho galleries of tlie council chamber.
