M. Goreniykln's elevation to the premiership created amazement. He Is not only regarded as a re-\nMtlouary, but tho general opinion is\nthat hs Is not equal to the task of facing the coming crisis.\nCount Witte's retirement from public\nlife Is complete, as there ls now no question of hlB appointment as president of\nthe council ot the empire. He again\nwill assume the role of a spectator of\nthe great events which are transpiring,\nreturning to private life, from which he\nwias summoned last summer to negotiate\nthe peace of Portsmouth.\nThe work of removing his furniture\nfrom the annex of the winter palace\nback to his old residence has already\nbegun. Reasons of health are assigned\nfor his retirement hut it must iw accepted as a victory for the reactionaries at\ncourt. Count Wltte simply served the\nctar's purpose as a barrier between him\nand the people during the trying months\nof the revolution, and now* that the uprising Is suppressed and the treasury\nagain replenished the count has been\ndismissed Ignomlnlously. M. Goremykln, the new premier, was exposed in\n1899, end since then has been Uie retiring premier's most unrelenting enemy. At that time, the former minister\nof the Interior made a report to the\ncsar to the effect that the stories of\nfamine and suffering which were said to\nexist in certain provinces were untrue.\nWitte, then minister of finance, there-J\n- upon produced documents to prove that\nthe conditions ln the Interior were as\nthey had been represented. When the\ncsar confronted M. Goremykln wtth this\nlie Is said to have fallen on his knees,\nto have wept and begged forgiveness,\nbeing bo overcome that the czar himself brought him a glass of water. Later\nM, Goremykln took part In the von\nPlehve cabal, which drove Witts from\nthe ministry of finance ln 1903.\nM. Goremykln is reported to be a mediocre man, oil insignificant appearance as\nwelt as capacity. He wears side whiskers and looks like an English butler.\nWhile for some time past he bas been\ncalled a liberal It was only ln contrast\nwith such men as von Plehve and M.\nSiplaguine, the late Interior minister.\nHe began bis career In the ministry of\njustice, becoming assistant minister,\nfrom which post, he was called In 1895,\nas a protege of the dowager empress, lo\nbecome, minister of the interior. The\nstudent troubles, the forerunners of the\nrecent revolution, were Just then beginning, and M. Goremykln lacked the\nenergy necessary to end them.\nHe was supplanted Itt 1899 by M. Siplaguine. Last year, when interior minister iDurnovo legislated out ot existence\nthe rural commission of which Wltte\nwaa president, and which had been Investigating the agrarian question for\nseveral years, M. Goremykln was appointed head of the agricultural commission, which supplanted It. When he\nbecame premier, Wltte retaliated on\nGoremykln by retiring the commission.\nIt Ib stated today that minister of Justice Skymoff will also follow count Wltte\ninto retirement though not aa a friend\nof the former premier.\nBRITAIN'S NAVY. _\nLarge Number of Vessels Now Under\nConstruction.\n\"London, May 2.\u2014According to official reports Oreat Britain has at present\nno less than six battleships, ten armored cruisers, eighteen destroyers and fifteen submarines under construction.\nDuring 1906-07 four armored vessels\n17 destroyers and 13 BUbmarlnes will be\ncommenced.

The vein upon the property\nis high grade and runs from four inches\nto two feet in width, being the paystreak\nof fissure lodge averaging two feet In\nwidth, the values chiefly being found on\neither side of the talc, a characteristic of\nthe fissure.\nThis vein has been exploited by tunnel down to the fifth level and now it\nIs ln order to go deeper. But the surface inclinations are such that a tunnel\nIs no longer au economic method ot development. Hence It Is necessary to\nsink. But to sink to advantage the\nmethod must be by winze. That is to\nsay that the sinking must begin from\nwithin tbe interior of the mine. Hence\non the fifth tunnel a chamber has been\nexcavated to receive the winding plant\nand outside a compressor is being erected at a convenient distance in order to\nsupply power by pipe line. The hoist\nand compressor, the latter being a double\nten drill plant, Lldgerwood type, the\nold standby of miners from Its campact-\nness, Is now in process of erection and\nat a later date the Ottawa will be able\nto resume Its shipments, as Mr. McPhee pharses It \"In pursuit of dividends\"\nPOWER BILL\nMeasure Introduced to Regulate Exportation of Electric Power\nOttawa, May 2\u2014Hon.

As it was\nthrough passengers had to be transferred from train to train, the derelict\ncoaches and tender still blocking the\n(track. According to the account of\none of tbe passengers last evening the\nescape of the morning from a serious\ncalamity waB a very narrow one. It\nseems the Juat beyond tbe filled ln culvert on which the accident occurred Is\nan emergency water tank. Some wayfarer had drawn water and carelessly\nleft the flow open. The water soaking\nalong the track sank through the bridge,\nrecently filled In, tearing away the supports. Juat at this point the railway is\nrunning on the west bank of the outlet\nto Slocan lake, about 100 feet above the\nstream, vertically, the bank between\nsloping at an angle of 45 degees.\nThe effect of the seepage was to leave\nthe rails hanging In the air. The momentum of the engine, running at 35 to\n40 imlles an hour, was sufficient to take\nIt over the narrow span of tbe washout\nbut the tender fell through. Behind\nwere two coaches which buckled, the\ncoupled ends standing out over the bank\nIn such a manner as to -suggest that a\nslight push would send them oer. They\nwere still so standing as the coast train\ncame up. Had the train's momentum\nheen insufficient and the engine, Instead\nof the tender, have fallen through the\nculvert, the direct stoppage would infallibly have precipitated the coaches\ninto the river with disastrous consequences.

For the\nManufacturers' Life to Impose a penalty\nwould work to the advantage of other\ncompanies.\nPabbs, the actuary of the Manufacturers'\nLife, formerly ot the Canada Lire, was\nalso examined.

Western & Yukon Bill\n(Special to The Daily News) \u2022\nOttawa, May 2.\u2014At the railway committee of the senate today, the Vancouver, Western and Yukon bill, for a line\nto Edmonton, waa reported. Senator\nMcMullen opposed it on the ground that\nAmericans were behind it. Hon. Mr\nTempleman appeared before the com-\n\u25a0mtttee on behalf of the government. He\nobjected to any attempt to prevent legitimate railway building in Canada. The\nbill, he declared was a Canadian project, backed by John Hendry, the biggest lumber man in Canada, and it was\nwanted to tap the Alberta wheat fields\nfor the beneflt of Vancouver. There\nwas no danger of diverting Canadian\nbusiness to the United States. Mr.\nTempleman said he would be glad If J.\nJ. Hill was behind It as was asserted, as\nhe was the only man who built railways In British Columbia without wanting a subsidy.\nR. G. Macpherson supported the bill\nas did also senator Macdonald. Senator Ferguson, conservative, said the bill\nwas a sinister project to capture the\nYellowhead Pass and thereby hold up\nthe Canadian Northern.\nThe British money market bill was reported.\nLord Grey has received the following\ncablegram from the British ambassador\nat Athens; \"Congratulations on Slier-\nrlng'd victory.

Clifford Slfton returned thla\nmorning from a trip to the Bahamas.\nHe noticed, he satd in the house today,\nIn New York newspapers his name connected with the North Atlantic Trad-\nlug company, and had wired the premier\nto try and hold the debate until he arrived, but the telegram reached sir Wilfrid Laurler too late for this.\nMr. Slfton declared thai he had had\nno opportunity as yet of hearing all\nthat had been said. He wanted, however, to say in reply to Foster, that\nthere was not one word of truth ln the\nInsinuation made by the member for\nNorth Toronto. There were no relations between the North Atlantic Trading company and himself beyond what\nwas on file. Tbere was no justification\nfor Mr. Foster's lnsinuation.4. which\nwere made out of whole cloth. After\nhaving given the insinuations a moat\nemphatic denial, Mr. Slfton challenged\nMr. Foster to make good his luuendoes\nand stated ho would give him every facility to do so. Mr. Slfton waa cheered at every sentence and no one on tho\nopposition side found himself able to\nmake any reply.\nAt the railway committee of the houso\nof commons the bill to Incorporate tho\nAahcroft-Barkerville and Fort George\nrailway was reported. It authorized tho\nconstruction of a line from Ashcroft or\nKamloops to Fort George. Permission\nfor branches to Barkerville and to the\nGrand Trunk Pacific were refused.\nR. G. Macpherson introduced a bill\nrespecting the Dominion Flre Insurance\ncompany.\nThere was a conference today between\nthe representatives of tho Lord's Day\nAlliance and the railway aud shipping\nInterests with a view of reaching a compromise as to transportation and shipping on Sunday.

DRANU\nSUBSCRIPTION RATES\nDally, per year 16.00\nDally, per month W\nAll r-ubHcriptiona payable In advance.\nIS A DAILY PAPER WANTED?\nIn the course of a very kindly reference to the fourth anniversary of The\nDally News, the Lardeau Mining Review says;\n\"The Dally Newa lit for Nelson\nand Kootenay, flrst, last and all the\nlime, aud aa a dally newspaper Is\nan Instance of the survival\nfittest \u2014 at least tn Nelson.\nFirst In tbe field with the latest\nnews of tbe world, it well merits\nthe good wishes of its readers\nand advertisers for an unbroken\nrun of prosperity.\"\nThis makes very nlco reading and\nmight be accepted as an affirmative\nanswer to the question, Is a dally paper\nwanted? Onfpfinnately, however, kind\nwords will not finance a newspaper.\nOutside thc city of Nelson, throughout\nthe Kootenay and Boundary districts,\nThe Daily Newa enjoys a steadily grow\ning circulation, Indicating la the surest\nmanner possible that a live daily newspaper Is wiuiit'ii nnd that the efforts of\nThe Daily News to fill this want are appreciated. Hut circulation alone will not\nsupport a dally newspaper and without\nadequate advertising patronage Its continued publication can only result ln\nheavier Joss to the publisher. The mala\nsupport of a daily paper published in\nthe city of Nelson must come from the\nbusiness men of Neison. If the business,\nactual and potential, does not justify the\nexpenditure in publicity that will make\nthe publication of a daily newspaper a\npaying proposition the right and proper course Is to discontinue the publication of a daily and return to a weekly\nor twlce-a-week Issue.\nPerhaps the simplest solution of the\nproblem, so far as The Daily News ls\nconcerned, would be at once to discontinue a daily Issue, and were it not for\nthe fact that the circulation secured by\nThe Dally News is such as to warrant\nan advertising patronage that would\nplace lt on a profit earning basis that\ncourse would have been adopted ere this.\nBut with a circulation that gives the\nbusiness men of Nelson access to practically the entire purchasing public of\nsouthern British Columbia, and In view\nof Nelson's claim to be the distributing\npoint for southern British Columbia, it\nwould appear reasonable to assume that\nthe advertising columns of The Daily\nNews should have an earning capacity\nequal at least to the cost of operation,\nand It is upon this assumption that publication Is continued.- Whether or not\npublication of a dally newspaper will be\ncontinued much longer depends entirely\nupon some Immediate evidence that the\nforegoing assumption is well-founded.\nIt must be confessed that the newspaper business, at least the advertising\nend of it, has In the past been badly disorganized In Nelson. Methods were in\nforce here that largely killed advwtlB-\nIng values and an impression was created In the minds of many business men\nPRUNING SHEARS\nSPADES\nHOES\nRAKES\nSPADING FORKS\nGARDEN HOSE\nLAWN SPRINKLERS\nThese are only a few leaders hut we are prepared to supply all\nyour wants.\nGARDEN TOOLS\nRANCH SUPPLIES\nLit local Tails' Will.\nTake rarl Coajtrt\nHsy'th.\nillHllllllllllllll'*.^%%%%*t>%*i^^%-\u00ab%%*t^*\u00ab*?\u00bb*S^'\n-*k**k**r%*\u00bb%%**|\nok wo make tae, 11\n\\hM\nI Out Very Styllll) Spring following prices: aiglish0Biack ana'uiu.1\nk fiiitinere Uawa sWiuaii snd Fancy Worsteds and real scotch\nI > OUIIings nave Hmveu Tweeds, splendid Huallty, suits IS; the\n(1 very best In stock, your choice, t*7. uur\nM.

The maximum temperature was 64.03 degrees Fahrenheit,\nranging from 51 to 74, being 1.71 degrees\nabove average. The minimum temperature was 37.1)3, ranging from 27 to 52,\n.72 above average. The mean temperature was 50.63, 1.74 degrees above average. The range was 27 degrees, the greatest being 38 degrees and the least 14,\nbeing 2.07 degrees- above the mean\naverage April range between the maximum and minimum temperatures. The\nhighest temperature recorded was 76\ndegrees on April 29, the second being\n76 on' April 12, the record being 76 ln\nApril 1904 and again In 1905. Tbe lowest\nwas 27 degrees on April 12, the record\nbeing 20 in April. 1904.\nThere were only 32 hours of rainfall,\nthis being 42 below average, but in\namount there waa little difference, the\nprecipitation being 1.10 inch or .06 below average, lt has been thought that\nthe precipitation has been somewhat deficient this year but this can hardly be\nsaid to be the case.

In that year Russia Indulged In an extensive coinage of silver,\nand the price at one time rose as high\nas'31 9-16d. per oa. From that date,'\nhowever, prices experienced a steady\ndownward movement, varied by brief\nrallies*,' which have redeemed the movement from an uninterrupted decline, but\nWevtet-thfeless sufficiently persistent to\nalmost Justify the description dn balance\nas continuous up td the year 1903. The\nnadir in values was reached in November, ISO1!, when bar silver was quoted\nat 21 11-lGd. per ot. In the following\nyear large purchases on behalf on the\nIndian government rescued the price\nfrom the abyss to which lt had fallen;\nand, subject to fluctuations from time to\ntime, the tendency has since been gradually upward, until by the end of February of the present year lt bad touched 30 13-16d per oi. Therefore, between\nNovember, 1902, and February, 1906, silver on balance had risen Djid. per oz.\nla value.\nThe maintenance of silver at the present level of prices, which has now ex-,\ntended over a period ot six months, is\ndue mainly to the buying on behalf of\nthe Indian government, and also to some\nlarge purchases on French account. The\nconsumption by Indla-durlng this period\nhas been very large. During tbe current\nyear the exports to India have amounted\nln value to about Ave and a-half millions sterling, ss compared with about\ntwo and a-half 'millions sterling for the\ncorresponding period of 1905.\nWith tbe figures of the past two years\nin evidence it would hardly be sate to\nanticipate a continuance of this large\nincrease did w.e not bear ln mind thfl\nstrong hoarding Instructs of the native\nIndian, and the fact that the Indian\ngovernment continues in the market is\nevidence that the present demands are\nnot yet satisfied. How long that demand will 1st it is impossible to say, and\nof course it may .be suspended at any\ntime; but there are at present no ladi-\ncations of it, and while the requirements\nof tba Indian government remain unsatisfied they will continue lu the market,\nnd consequently support of the price of\nthe white mell. Any cessation of tbat\ndemand villi, of course,\"cause the price\nto give way, unless other demands\narise simultaneously wltb the present\nIndian requirements a further rise ln\nthe price ot silver would probably result.\nThe question now Is, What Is likely\nto he Russia's requirements In the near\nfuture? With the completion of the\nforthcoming loan it la not unreasonable\nto expect that that country will be a\nlarge purchaser of sliver for a considerable time, and tbis is what the market\nis anticipating. In that event, it Is natural also to anticipate that there will\nbe a further Increase In the price of bar\nsliver,; No doubt this will be the result,\nglveu the buying on the part of the\nIndian government does not fall off; but\nthat is Just what the best-Informed\nauthorities on the subject are anticipating may happen. In which event It is\na moot point whether the present price\ncan be maintained. So far Indications\npoint to a slight reaction from that\ncause, but its probable effect may be\nfully neutralized by purchases ln other\ndlrecUons, not only for Russia, but also\nfor France, which is regarded as a likely large purchaser when the Russian\nloan is disposed of.\nPROFESSIONAL UNIONS\nJoseph Martin, K.C, on tbe Bthlcs of\nProfessional Advertising.\n\"It strifes me as nonsensical to say.\nthat the B.

Bach\nis afraid to Investigate a colleague, because If he did he, naturally, would not\nget his vote on some pet motion.\nThe benchers ln B. C. collect \"20 a\nyear from every practicing lawyer, more\nthan double what Is collected ln Manitoba, and more than is collected by similar bodies in any part of the world.\nYet they are always broke hecauso they\nthrow the money away. Once It was\nused on behalf of the conservative party.\n\"I would like to draw out a reply\nabout these matters, but I do not expect\nIt because they know that I can prove\nall that I say up to the hilt.\n\"Lawsuits cost more than twice too\nmuch in this province. That is a matter that would require considerable space\nto explain. It would be better for the\nprofession if the costs were less.\n\"Reverting to the dental and medical\nprofessions, there should be an examination to test ability but the board of admission should not be composed of men\nIn the profession.\"\nIT IS DANGEROIIU TO NEGLECT A\nCOLD.\nHow often do you hoar It remarked: \"It's\nonly a cold,\" anil a few days later learn\nthat the man Is on Ills back with pneumonia.
