It has been\nsuggested to go back to the assessment\nplan, but that was considered inipract-\nable by the best authorities A similar\nproposition in tlm United States was\nthus spoken of in the engineering and\nMining Journal of March 15th. and the\ninference to be deducted was decidedly\nfavorable so our system\n'I had a proposal from one of the\n\u25a0ifi,rgest~minuig\"vompanieo\"iirth6\"n\u00a300te*\"\nnay, and the plan placed before me by\nthe manager would not onlv. in his\nopinion, increase the revenue, but popularise the Government in the Mining\ndistricts, 1 will read the memorandum\nsubmitted by him. He says:\u2014\n\"The plan proposed as a substitute\nfor the two per cent tax is* to tax all\nmineral claims, excluding surface improvements. The total amount to be\nraised is to be a definite sum, to be determined each year by the Lieutenant-\nGovenor in Council, \"who shall, when\nthe assessment roles are complete, levy\nthe particular rates to get this sum.\n''Details of assessment should be left\nto the Assessors. All that is wanted is\nto have uniformity of method iu all districts, and Assessors will naturally and\nnecessarily do this\n\"The advantage of the plan are as follows:\u2014\nI. It relieves the Government of its\ndi iHculties:\n\"(a) By giving it mure revenue than\nthe2 percent tax, and a definite sum\nwhich may be counted upon:\n\"(li) By'loavjig the amount and rale\nfor each year entirely in the hands of\nthe Government:\n\"(c) By securing the credit for reforming a specially unpopular and irritating\nmeasure\n\"2, 'r relieves the inining industry\nfrom the peculiar evil ol the 2 per\ncent, tax, wliich in the fact that as lower grades of ores are mined the tux\nseizes increasing percentages of the net\nprofits This stops or limits all new\nenterprises for utilising low-grade ores\n\"8, It not only relieves the industry\nfrom this evil, Imt will, moreover, actually benefit ,t bv checking another\npeculiar evil tn which it is suliect.

Slocan\non Tuesday. Of all holidays\u2014and Canadians are partial to holidays\u2014but of\nthem all, Dominion Day seems to rest\nclosest to the heart, and few people\nthere are who will not celebrate the\nday if given the slightest excuse to do\nso. The citizens of- Slocan provided\nthat excuse. They did not pretend to\nmake the celebration a big affair, with\nlat purses as prize money, but they did\ntry to get the best for the money offered\nand to pull off the events promptly ou\ntime and in a manner to give satisfaction to contestants and spectators. And\nin this they succeeded in everything\nbut the baseball match between New\nDenver and Slocan junior teams for\nthis the weather clerk was partly to\nblame, but not so much so as the umpire, who, after \"cheating us out of two\nruns\"\u2014to use the expression of one of\nthe viaititig team\u2014gave the game to\nSlocan at tbe end of the seventh inning\nwith the score standing 10 to 9. This\nkind of treatment has a tinge of unfairness about it, and is a blot on the page\nof otherwise, clean sport.\nThe morning was devoted principally\nto keepiug in out of the wet, but in the\n\u25a0afternoon-the-sun-presented-his-mellow'\nmug daintily veiled with clouds, and\nthe ladies came out in gala attire as\nif fairyland had turned loose. Tho\nfootraces and jumping contests were\nwon by the Slocan regulars, Gusty of\nSandon taking- many firsts, and Hicks\nof Slocan walKiiitf on with first \\r, pole\nvaulting and high jumping. The bicycle races were tame affairs, there bo\nina only enough entries to capture the\nprizes.' The uovelty and Victoria Cross\nnorse races were decidedly tho racing\nfeatures of the day, and caused the\nprincipal excitement of the dny.\nThe drilling contest was well put on.\nThree teams entered: Gillette and\nFoley, of the Ottawa; Ftndlay and\nIhompson, of the Fisher Maiden, and\nPendrav and Aitchison, of the Arlington. The result of the drilling was a\nsurprise to everyboiv. The Ottawa\nteam nut down tiie lirst hole. They\nwere poorly coached, their changes\nwere poorly made, their striking nervous and steel handling uncertain,\nwhile seven of their steel broke in the\nhole. On the other hand the Fisher\nMaiden and Arlington teams hit well,\nchanged well, kept their steel free, and\nwere well coached- But. when the holes\nwere measured it was found there was\nonly an inch difference between the\nlirxt and third piissc winners: Gillette\n& Foley drilled il\\ inches; Findlay &\nThompson, 21J; and Pcndrny \u201e Aitchison, 22J.\nThere was a single and double scull\nrace on the hike in the evening, but\nlittle interest was manifested, and just\nbefore the boat pulled put Slocan s\nstrong men pulled the world over the\nchalk mark at the end of a rope.\nA ball in the evening wound up a verv\nwell-managed celebration, to which\nniliny New Denverites staid to participate'.\nplayed their respective parts last night.\nMr. Seven-Oakes was dignified in bearing; albeit a trifle stout, and had the\ntrue conception of thc character. Miss\nEmma Mathes was very good in her\npart as Oliva, which slie played very\ntastefully. The costumes of all the actors and actresses were correct to a\nfault and the scenery was all that\ncould be desired.\nTOURIST ASSOCIATION.\nFollowing theJead.of.Kootenay towns\nthe coast cities are establishing a tourist\nassociation Vancouver organized one\nlast week.
