He left the'\nemploy of Mr. Lapoiuto about ten\ndays ago aud, it is said, began drink\ning. On Tuesday ho went out to do\nsome work ou the Poorman. He did\nnot work in the mcruing but began his\ntask in the afternoon. Towards tho\nend of tho day, he showed signs of\nmental abberation, bnt attracted little\nattention.\nIt is well-known that dolirinm\ntremens is not so much the result of\nexcessive drinking as it is of sudden cessation either through deprivation of or inability to assimilate the\npoison. There was no liquor to bo got\nanywhere near the mine and the mau\nbecame deranged through want of it.\nWhen the days work was done, he\nwent with others to the sleeping ap-\npartmeuts and lay down. About four\no'clock he got out. of his bunk and securing a pocket kai;.. he stabbed hia\nstomach, the blade making a cut over\nthree inches long and penetrating to\nthe liver. The man was by this time\na raving maniac aud the miners aroused from their sleep, found hpi\nrolling on the ground. They seized\nand tried to quiet him, but found it\ndifficult to hold him. Word was sent\nimmediately to Dr. La Ban, in the\ncity but he being absent, his partner,\nDr. Forin went out to the mine.\nWhen Dr. Forin arrived ho found\nthe man in a very exhausted state and\nstill ravine and struggling. The\nwound in the abdomen was a very bad\none. The struggles of tho man had\nforced the liver, one lobe of wliich had\nbeeu severed, out through the aperture,\nand dust, dirt and straw had got into\nthe wounds from contact with the\nearth.\nThe man presented a distressing\nsight and Dr. Foriii had uever been\ncalled to a worse case. The doctor did\nwhat he could to relieve the sufferer\nand hurried him to town, where he\narrived about 2 o'clock, and was taken\nimmediately to Miss Crickmay's hos\npital. The patients strength still held\nout and ho was put under the influence of narcotics. The protruding\nliver was then thoroughly cleansed with\nantiseptics and the wounds stitched\nhy Dr. La Bau who had joined Dr.\nForin, bnt it is not probable that the\nman will livo.

This\nprovinco is most favorably situated for\nthe snecoss of the industry which Dr.\nLanghammer shows to be so desirable 11\noue in tho economic progress of tho province. Great bodies of gulona have been\nfound in all parts of tho province and\nloads aro being extonisvoly worked\neverywhere.

A.\nGregg, of the Victoria Times, who arrived in the city from Rossland on\nTuesday evening.\nMr. Gregg is combining business\nwith pleasure in his trip through the\nKootenays, the question of the organization of the Liberal party in the interior of the Province occupying a\npart of his attention. Mr. Gregg's\nattention was drawn to an article\nwhich recently appeared in the Rossland Miner to tho effect that an alteration in the Federal representation of\nthis provinco was imminent. This\nstatement was characterized by Mr.\nGregg as a fabrication. Ho had heard\nnothing of the change nor had Mr.\nBostock. who would, presumably, have\nhad somo notice of tho matter. Thus\nthe announcement may be dismissed\nas having no foundation, though such\nadditional representation for the Kootenays may be in many respects desirable.\nReferring to provincial politics, Mr.\nGregg considered that tho Turner\nparty had absolutely collapsed, their\ndefeat being much more complete than\ntho election returns would indicate. It\nhns been known for sonic time that\nColonel Baker i.s leaving the province,\nand now Mr. Turner has thrown up\nthe sponge. The ex-premier bus\nleased his house, and is about to\ndepart for the old country whero he\nwill in future reside. Thero is no\ndoubt about this, as Mr. Turner has\nhimself authorized the statement.\nMr. Gregg considered the determination of tho conservative party to\nfight the next election on party lines\nas a tactical blunder, for tho result\nwould be that tho present administration would pull tho entire liberal vote,\nand also attract the numerous conservative supporters of Messrs. ttom- j\nIin and Cotton.\nSpeaking of the present administration, Mr. Gregg said that tho Hon. ,1. '\nPred Hume had surprised even his\nfriends by the. masterly way ho was ,\nalready managing the affairs of his!\ndepartment, Mr. Humo is displaying, :\nas Tho Minor predicted ho would.'grent\nacumen and administrative capacity,\nwhile tho weakness his opponents used\nto profess to discern, is conspicuous by\nits absence.

Foster's Trip to tlie West.\nHis Prophetic Powers\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdMajor\nWalsh Interviewed-\nOttawa, Sept. 10.\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdin the chorus of\ncongratulation and endorsation which\nhas been called forth by the success of\ntho government's efforts to bring about\nImperial penny postage it is pleasant\nto find a word of approval from a\ndistinguished member of the opposition, Sir Adolphe Oaron, postmaster\ngeneral, in the late government, says\nthat ho always approved of Imperial\npeny postage but could not see how\nCanada could afford it. Possibly if the\nmoney spent during his regime in paying contractors for carrying mails had\nbeen $100,000 less, as it now is under\nMr. Mulock, and the other leakages\nstopped, as they are now, the ex postmaster general would have been as\nwell ablo to bring about the reform as\nhis successor was. But the minister\nwho was responsible for the expenditure of $112,700 during the elections of 1892 in that sectiou of Quebec\nunder his management, money which\nby his own confession was \"milked\"\nfrom the public contracts, ,'otild not* be\nexpected to troublo himself about the\nminor economies of bis department.\nREMINISCENCES.\nThoro were other departments also,\nwhere public works might have heen\ncarried out, and needed reforms\neffected, but* for the scandalous looting\nof the public treasury, which made\nthe record of the late administration a\nbye-word among the nations. It is\nnot a pleasant, task to recall our\ncountry's shame, but when the opposition press and platform speakers,\nfrom the ex-cabinet ministers down',\npresist in talking about extravagance\nand boodling, and increased expenditure, it becomes the duty of public\njournals to remind the electors of the\npast. They should not be allowed to\nforget the record of the department of\nrailways and canals when the 14 mile\nbranch of the St. Charles railwav cost\n$1,760,000 instead of $186,000 as estimated, and six miles of the Tay canal\ncost $470,128 instead of $182,660 as\nestimated, since earning abnnt $100 a\nyear towards the $2500 that it* costs the\ncountry annually to maintain them.\nThen there is the Galops Rapids channel in tho Cornwall canal costing\ndouble the contrast prico, and, on the\nadmission of tho minister in parliament is even then useless; and the\nSheiks island dam in the same locality\nupon which jiloo.OOO was expended tind\nthen the work stopped. At least a\ndozen other transactions equally wasteful, might be quoted in this department alone, when it was under the\nguidance of Hon. John Haggart.\nPUBLIC WORKS SCANDAL.\nTurning to the public works department the detractors of Hon. J. Israel\nTarto, when indulging in petty criticism of expenditures necessitated by\nhis tour of inspection this summer\nthrough tho east, might with advantage recall the Langevin Block\nscandal where the now departmental\nblock in this city which was to cost\nloss than $500,00 actually cost over\n$1,000,000, the roof alone costing as\nmuch as the original estimate for the\nwhole building. Tho Conuolly-Mc-\nGreevy frauds, in wliich tho country\nlost $700,000, the result of a straight\nsteal, is another example, and a painful\natendant circumstance must not be forgotten, that a very comfortable percentage of tho boodle found its way\neventually into the ('conservative election fund. The Curran bridge scandal in whieh the bridge built over tho\nLachine canal iu Montreal eventually\ncost $4110,000, the original estimate was\nbut* $1211,000 and the government's own\ncourt of inquiry decided that $1(10,000\nwould be ample, so that tho country\nwas left $270,000 poorer, though the\ninvestigation in the public accounts\ncommittee showed that tho conservative election fund was proportionally\nenriched.\nMANY MOKE MIGHT BK ADDED.\nTho list niight bo considerably extended, for the simple enumeration of\nthe scandals of that period, not alleged by a disgruntled opposition, but\nproved by sworn evidence of unwilling\nwitnesses before parlimcntary committees, was a lengthy one. When conservative speakers and writers discourse glibly on expenditure and extravagance, using the words inter-\nchangably, as if they were synonymous, the public memory is incapable\nof the task of going back a few years\nIt is not possible in this one paragraph, to go fully into details but if\nthe oppositionists have fhe temerity to\ndeny any or nil of these charges, we\nshall be compelled to furnish sufficient\ndetail to satisfy tho most sceptical,\nHON. MR. FOSTER SEES SIGNS.\nHon. G. E. Foster, ex-minister of\nfinance, has returned from his trip to\nthe west. In the course of his peregrinations, he more than once assured\nthose he met that his tour was entirely\na business trip; but he found frequent\nopportunity for impromptu political\nmeetings, which ho took advantage of i\nt) place his views on current politics\nbefore the electors. He appears to have\ngone over the old hackneyed ground of\nexploded charges against the government, ringing the changes with com-\nmendable impartiality upon the ''ex-'\ntravagance\" of the public expenditure, !\nthe \"rottenness\" of the Yukon administration, the Crow's Nest railway\ndeal and other deals, and so forth.\nWith so much material to his hand,\nbut\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdthough this does not appear to\nhave troubled him\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdwith precious little\nevidence to support his position, the\nvoluble ex-minister did not find time\nto refer to the settlement* of the Maui- |\ntoba scliool question or the operations\nof tho preferential trade, the postmaster general's Imperial penny postage victory aud the wiping out* of the\ndeficit in his department, the redemption of the re-election promises to reform the superannuation scheme, repeal the franchise act, aud take a prohibition plebiscite, and so forth.\nA SAFE PREDICTION.\nUpon his return to Ottawa Mr.\nFoster i.s reported to have said (bat he\nnever saw the country in such splendid\ncondition or the people so prosperous,\nand Ihis is an honest admission for\nwhich he should receive credit, lie\nadded, however, that the public were I\nfully alive to the \"villanies\" of the\nGrit government and were impatiently\nwaiting for the first opportunity to\nsweep it out of power. Mr. Foster is\nto be congratulated upon his optimistic\ndisposition which must greatly assist\nhim to bear up under the absolute failure of all his prophesies of blue ruin\nand disaster. While finding such unmistakable signs of conservative re\naction throughout the west, it is certainly hard to understand why Mr.\nFoster did not notice accurately the\ntrend of local politics in British Columbia, in view of the fact that they\nwere occupying so large a share of\npublic atetention when he was at the\ncoast.\nIn an interview reported in the Mail\nand Empire and other conservative\npapers of the (ith inst., Mr. Foster in\nspeaking of tlie trouble in Pacific\npolitics is alleged to have said, \"What\nwill bo tho outcome no one knows;\nprobably in the end a rearrangement\nof parties on straight party lines.\"\nThree days before, tbe conservatives of\nthe province in convention assembled,\npassed a resolution declaring that (he\nparty, as a party, would in the future\ntake part in provincial elections. Really\nMr. Foster should keep better posted\nin current news if he wishes his\nprophesies of the future to carry\nweight.\nA LOST OPPORTUNITY.\nThe Mail and Empire correspondent*\nin Winnipeg has interviewed Major\nWalsh respecting his experiences in\nthe Klondike. The major speaks of\nthe probable output, of the number of\npeople in Dawson, of the mining prospects of the future, of the most promising points lo make for, and so on,\nbut strange to say he is not asked\nabout the. boodling operations of the\ngovernment officials, of tho incompetence and exactions of tho postal clerics,\nof the shameful trafficing in mining\nclaims, of the outrageous actions of\nthe government- in practically giving\naway valuable wharfage privileges, of\ntho discontent, almost amounting to\nrebellion iii Dawson against officially\ntyranny, of his own disgust at lhe\nprevailing condition of things, and of\n50 other things in which conservative\npapers have shown such an interest\nduring the past few months and which\nis of far more national importance\nthan the question of whether Hunter\ncreek or Sulphur creek is likely to\nprove the richer.\n1898 PROVINCIAL 1898\nExhibition\nuniler lliu direction nl\nThe Royal Agricultural and Industrial\nSociety of British Columbia.\nOCT. 5 to 13 Inclusive\n\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd AT-\nNew Westminster\nin oonjuction with the\n(itas'Grand Yeaiiu Celebration\nSSS9SSSS\ufffd\ufffdS89*S\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd 89SS SS\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffde9\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdSS\ufffd\ufffdS69\ufffd\ufffd9\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdSS6S\ufffd\ufffdSS?:\ufffd\ufffdS\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd9\nTHE FIRST TRIAL S\nof our Clothing is generally sufficient to S)\nnmke u lifo long customer.
