The possibility of increasing the\nassessment bv extending the c'ty limits was canvassed hut thought Impracticable or at least unpromising.\nThe mayor asked Dr. Arthur who attended on behnlf of the board, if lt\nwou'd be possible to build oily a part\ncf the new building this year.\nDr. Arthur replied that such a course\nwould result In a patched and permanently- unsatisfactory building.\nThe mayor\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdWhen do you want to\nbegin building.\nDi*.

The\nleases also carried privileges which\ngave the lessee power to purchase ten\nper cent of his leasehold at tl per\nacre, and it waa granted to gentlemen\nwho did not live in the country at the\ntime, who had no interest in the country, and who never owned any cattle\nin tbe country, and who held these\nleases for the purposes of speculation.\nAt the same time -cattle men who had\nbeen engaged ln the cattle business for\na great number of years, and who had\nbeen trying ln every* possible way to\nobtain leases were refused lhat privilege.\nBy an order In council, passed on\nMarch 23rd, 1903, and Dec. 24, 1903, lt\nwas determined t-at closed irrevocable grazing leases should lasue to H.\nP. Brown among others. In accordance therewith a lease was drawn up\nln the department ln favor of Mr.\nBrown and dispatched to his address\nat Great Falls, Montana, on Jan. 14th,\n1904. This communication was accompanied by a lease ln duplicate, which\nhe was asked to sign and return at once\ntogether with six months rental, amount\ning to about (600 payable in advance.\nBrown never acknowledged this letter,\nnever signed any lease and never paid a\ncent of rent. The government held the\nland for him. No other rancher could\nlease it; no settler could come In. Notwithstanding repeated efforts extending\nover a period of eighteen months the\ndepartment was unable to reach Brown.\nAs Brown signed no lease and paid no\nrent under the terms of the lease, his\nprivilege waa forfeited and the minister\nhad full power to withdraw the offer of\nDec. 24, 1903.\nWhen the new minister ot the interior took office Brown was still undiscovered, but when the concession was\napparently in jeopardy, A. J. Adamson.\nM. P., came upon the scene and presented a transfer of Browu'a right to the\nGalway Horse and Cattle company, although tbe transfer was dated Sept. 17,\n1903, a date at which llrown had no\nlease, and the Galway Horse and Cattle\ncompany had no corporate existence.\nThe government, nevertheless, recognized the transfer and agreed to grunt to\nthe Galawy Horse & Cattle company a\nnew lease for 21 yeurs from Auguat,\n1905. This new lease when grantetd\nwas revocable*, but under pressure the\nminister subsequently made tt a closed,\nIrrevocable lease. The Galway Horse\n_ Cattle company was composed of a\nLiberal member of the house, and a\nc.susin of the same person, wbo were\nresiding at least 500 miles from the land\nIn question, and who never had been ln\nthe cattle business. This company\nnever owned a head of stock and never\nhad any Intention of engaging in ranching, lt seems as though the company\nhal p-ocurel the lease tor the sole\npurp.:s or trafficking in It. At any\nrale that was ceitalnly what they did.\nAfter the Hon. Clifford Sifton had resigned, the Hon. Mr. Oliver, as his successor, came to the conclusion thai H.\nP. Brown must disclose himself, pay\nthe rent of lose his concession. Then\na strange thing happened. On July 17,\n1905, just at lhe close of the parliamentary session, A. J. Adamson, M. P. for\nHumboldt, presented himself to thc department and produced nn assignment\nfrom H. P. Brown to the Galway Horse\n& Cattle company. This assignment\nwns datPd Sept. 17, 1903, and had appar.\nnetly been carried In Adamson's pocket\nfor a year and len months, during which\ntime the department had vainly\nsearched Montana for Brown, and during which time (he government had\nkept out settlers and had prevented\nbona fide ranchers from entering upon\nthis territory. Adamson would not pay\nthe overdue rental of (2400 and aecure\nan irrevocable lease, but took a revoca\nble lease, commencing August 1, 1905,\npaying six months rental of (650. Adam-\nson's brother-in-law, Turriff, M. P.,\nknew th\" difference In value between\na revocable and an irrevocable lease,\ngot after the minister for a change and\nOliver yielded to Tariff's demand and a\nnew lease was Issued to the Oalway\nHorse ft Cattle company with the revocable clause struck out. Within a week\ntbe company had disposed of the lease\nto John Gowdry Macleod, for 122,500.\nAmes proceeded to speak of the per-\nsonell 'of the Galway company. It consisted of A. J, Adamson, M. P., J. M.\nAdamson, sister of Mr. Turriff, M. P.,\nand A. J. Bell, cousin of J. M. Adamson. The company was Incorporated\napparently for the sole purpose of trafficking in grating leases. It only existed from March 11, 1904, to April 2,\n1906, when It was struck off the register of the N. W. T. Its one transaction\nconsisted of acquiring the H. P. Brown\nlease and the disposal of It to John\nGowdry. For over a year the lease wu\npeddled round Alberta at sums ranging from $30,000 down to $25,000. Only\nwhen the revocable c'ause waa struck\nout was a purchaser found. An examination of the application of Brown for\nthe lease revealed that the magic letters\n\"per J. D. M.\" appeared under Brown's\nsignature, evidencing the presence of J.\nD. McGregor of the Grand Forks Cattle company fame.\nAM facts showed that the government permitted an area T)f 106 square\nmiles to be blanketed by a hogns entry\nfor a period of four years, during which\nthne ranchers and settlers were kept\nout. This valuable concession wu\nhawked about the country, and 122,500\ncame to a member of parliament ln Invest in Cobalts in -consequence ot the\nprotection of one minister and the weak\nness of his successor.\nREPORT ON STOESSEL\nRevelation of Condition* In Port Arthur Garrison at TM** of Surrender to\nAINSWORTH CAMP\nScene of Great Mining\nActivity Ws Year\nONLY ENCODRAGEIENT\nResults boo Derelopaeat\nVarious Pro-pertks\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdOperations Described.\nSt. Petersburg, Feb. 28.\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdA copy of\nthe secret report on the defense of Port\nArthur, which Is the bull of tbe Indict-\nment on which Lieutenant General\nStoessel, Lientenant General Fock, who\ncommanded the Fourth But Siberian\ninfantry at Port Arthur, and Major General Reiss, chief of staff ot General\nStoessel, are standing trial for their\nlives before the supreme court martial,\nhas been obtained by the Associated\nPress.

Let us thereto\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd be careful what we\nlay.'*\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdCokfi'OTVs.\nTHE LAHOH PROBLEM.\nWith tlie approach or 8|iring the problem which ls of mosi Importance In\nHritish Columbin ls tho labor problem.\nOther Issues may be dealt with more\nMsurely but this one Is pressing. Sev-\nerly aB the famine of laborers, mechanics ansl artisans was felt last summer\nlhe Btraln will be muth more trying\nneit Bummer unless rails f is speedily\nobtained. Thai this ls genorualy recognizes! throughout the province is evident, but not all parts of iht; province\nare taking such systematic steps (o\nface and solve (he problem us Is being\ndone In Victoria. There the board of\ntrade has laken the matter up anil will\nthoroughly investigate local conditions\nand In conjunction wllh the (taJe and\nlabor council will prepare a reporl upon\nthe subject which will b \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd somewhat\nsimilar to the report of a commission,\nit is proposed io arrange fssr interviews\nwith the managers of large anil small\nIndustries, employersof labor In ginerul\nand representative citizens, farmers' In-\ns Itutos and like Institutions who aro\nwil ing to go on record its lo the best\nmethod to be adopted lo overcome the\nlabor famine.\nAs Ib now well known a petition Is\nbeing circulated in the capital city ask.\nIng Uie Dominion government lo repeal\nthe Chinese head lax of JfiOO or at least\nreduce it to the nominal figure al which\nlt stood a couple of years ago. The\nsubject was under discussion ln the\nboard of trade at Victoria recently but\ndid not comeito a vote because so Important it was felt (ha( (he senliinent\nof the whole country sliould be obtain\ned. Hence the formation of lhe committee.\nWhatever differences of opinion may\nexist between various sections of society on the question of reducing the\nlis ad tax on Chinese the delay and\nthorough investigsition before taking ac.\nHon is wise. It was by the mosl strenuous and persistent agitation that the\npresent lax was secured. It has been\nin operation but a short time but It has\nbeen effective ln checking the Invasion\nof Mongolians. That conditions should\nhave so suddenly changed as to make\nwhat was so urgently advocuted a\ncouple of yenrs ago undesirable uow Is\na matter which cannot be believed\nwithout abundant proof. The voice of\nthe whole country has a right to be\nheard. The question is one upon which\nlabor unions as well as employers have\na right lo be consulted. The Investigation by the committee, lf lt ls made sufficiently (borough, will reveal whether\nor no( the fixing of the tax at $500 was\na poliUcal move or whether It was un\nhonest endeavor to conserve Ihe widely\nvaried interests of the country. ThiB\nis perhaps the most Important discovery thut will be made and ll will be\nawaited with interest.\nIn the meantime the provincial government Is earnestly facilitating the\ncarrying out of the agreement with the\nSalvation Anny bellevelng that many\ndesirable Anglo-Saxon Immigrants will\nbe secured In this way. The first contingent Of these immigrants Is expected\nto arrive early next month. These men\nare certainly preferable to Chinese as\nmany will bring their families wiih\nthem and augment the supply of domestic servants, As is well known the\nprovincial government hus nothing to\ndo with controlling the importation of\nChinese but lis efforts to supply or at\nleast assist in supplying (he crying need\nof the oountry will meet with general\napproval. Thnt the demand of the\nwhole country will be amply supplied\nfrom any quarter during thc present\nsummer Is Impossible but we submit It\nls far better to have picked Immigrants whose placcB are ready to be\nfilled, aB under the system approved by\nthe government, than to adopt any\nmethod which will lead to haphazard\ndistribution of new comers frsim any\ncountry. This experiences with the\nSikhs has been sufficiently serious to\nconvince us of this. Whither these men\nhave vanished wo are not aware. They\nhave deserted our sttvets and the st'tt-\nsatlounl Items relating their experiences\nsent in from various parts of the country ins longer appear upon our pages.\nThe thrilling tales of robbery, assault\nand other things with which they were\ncharged In the coast cities no longed\nslarll'e us with their flaring head lilies.\nOur experience with tho\/i was Bhort\nbut it wus long enopg ttieutch us a sal-\nlent lesson on the clusmsf Immigrants\nthnt will Le most uaefptp the country,\nlt will at once appear t|*ial It Is better\nto go slowly and sSuyjjIn (material for\ncitizenship fiom the iigiit Quarter rather\nthan to rush Into the Importation of\nundesirables for the sake of temporary\nadvantage. No man Is ioj good foi\nBritish Columbia, either us a workman,\nmi employer or an investor. We covei\n(he bes( and by the adoption of proper\nmethods we may obtain them. Hut ln\nthis as In many other matters 1( Is well\nto make haste slowly.\nUNIVERSAL PEACE\t\nSludents of events cannot fall lo be\nImpressed wllh (he apparent desire on\nthe part ol\" the leudlug nations of the\nworld lo approach (he problem of a\nworld peace at (he nexl Hague conference wllh (he ull seriousness. So far\nas the Occident is concerned scarcely\na nation bus allowed itself to be omitted from the categorc of those which\nhave expressed the hope lhat the conference will result in some substantial\nagreement among nations for disarmament or at least the reduction of the\nmunitions of war. This disposition is\nin commendable contrast with the spirit\nof the same nations less than a decade\nago. The defiant If not belligerent attitude of most of the European power8\nkept the world ln constant dread that\nwar might develop ut any moment und\nInternationa) relations were kept strained, first ut one point then at another\ntill rumors of war were the sensations\nof the hour.\nAll this seems to be happily passing\naway. It Is tme thn( Britain. Germany\nand the United Stntes are still adding\n(o their navies but this Is Imperative\nor at least intelligible until such time\nas a genera! agreement to disarm is\nreached, While we agree with King\nHaakon that it Is too much to expect\n(he next Hague conference to finally\nnettle the question there would seem to\nbe no doubt, If the spirK manifesled\ncan be laken seriously, thai a modus\nVivendi will be arranged which will\nhasten the day predicted by prophets\nand patriarchs of old.\nThese things have, of course, not\ncome about of themselves. There must\nbe a guiding spirit somewhere and thc\npurpose is evidently being pursued with\na resistless energy, u worshipful tact\nand a sublime patience and persuasive\npower. It will be recalled thut a few\nmonths ago the Associated Press announced that as a result of the good of-\nfices of King Edward a new dreibund\nhud been formed on the European continent. Although the report was officially denied lt will not down and has\nbeen reaffirmed repeatesliy. We know\nof no monarch more likely to be the\nguiding spirit of such u pucflc purpose.\nWe know of none more qualified to execute it nor can we at (his moment sug-\nges( anyone In a more fnvoruble position for the carrying out of such a\nlofty resolution. Without assuming the\ntruth of the suggestion it would bo\npleasing to reflect that the King of England, a nallon which has for centuries\nbeen first in war und whose flug has\nbeen trailed In Beas of blood, could be\ntho medium through which the horrors\nof war may be abolished. And we may\nadd thnt lt ls not a( all unlikely that\nthis will prove (he case.\nThe commercial (reatles which are being extended between the nations is a\nhealthy sign (ha( (he ravages of commercial warfare can also be obviated and\naltogether (he outlook for a more general recognition of (he universal broth*\nerhood of niun Ib encouraging. It is not\nnecessary to rhapsodize upon the prospect. It la yet too far away to do those\nnow in middle life much good but it is\nsome satisfaction to think thai (he rising generalion may live long enough to\nread with the same starled wondnr Ihe\nB(ory of wars of our age aB did little\nPeterkln listen to the tales of his grandfather und wonder what the}' killed\neach other for. Thc lesson sliould bo\nan Imprtsslon ln the lesser walks of\nlife. While nations are drawing closer\ntogether and entering Into bonds of\npeace liiillvlduuls should not overlook\nthe opportunities to do the sums; thing\namong themselves and the world come\nin have un object lesson in how ideas,\nam a thing It ls to see people dwelling\ntogether In unity.\nEDITORIAL COMMENT.\nSpeaking of the approaching colonial\nconference and of Canada's attitude towards any readjustment of larlffB within the empire ehe Toronto Ologe suys:\n\"Canada's position will be stated with\nfrankness.

It\nopens with the circular Issued lo the\ngovernors of Ihe self-governing colonies,\nsent out by Mr. Lyttlcton in the spilng\noi 1905, suggesting the title \"colonial\nconferences\" be discarded In favor of\nthe term \"imperial council.\" to be applied to councils of the empire to be\nheld at regular intervals, with a permanent representative commission to\ndraft resolu.ions aB su.ge.-tid by the\ngovernments interested. The proposal\nwus accupsed by Cape Colony, Natal\nand Australia, while Canada and New-\nloundland dissented from it. The Canadian government took the ground that\nany change in title should be left to\nthe conference Itself, while the suggested permanent commission was regarded\nby Canada aB likely to \"Interfere with\ntbo working of responsible government.\" The conference, which was to\nbe held in 1906, was, however, postponed until 1907.\nThe Canadian government endeav.\nored to have the conference of 1907\npostponed until May, but the colonial\nsecretary pointed out that this would\nbe inconvenient; that the conference\nshould meet on April 15th and not last\nmore than four weeks, as the premier\nof South Africa and other delegates\nwould have to leave for home about the\nmiddle of May.\nAustralia. New Zealand and Cape\nColony, replying to a request of the\ncolonial secretary, submitted a list of\nthe Bubjects which they considered\nshould be discussed at the conference.\nHut the government of Canada replied\nthat it had no suggestions to make.\nphiliTihoi\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd Kiiith eighty I'iinhi., tlielue com\n\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd.Iglily sliniii.. tbenn iiurili t'llllitj* ehalns Iss\n|\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdiml ol I's'llimclH'i'lsu'Ul.\nDmoil Ki-b.
