Transportation of this description is a work\nof men. I claim for my government\nthat we have reduced to the farmer of\nthe west the cost of transportation by\nat least 37 per cent.

Is there any man in\nthis audience who can charge me with\nover having acted unfairly to anybody? I lay my. own record and my\nwhole lite before the people and I\nthink they will say that my policy has\nalways been the policy ot harmony and\nconciliation. I am no longer a young\nman; I have not many years to live;\nhut when I am in my grave, no man\nwill be able to say that Laurier haB\nfavored discord In this land.\"\nHe predicted a still greater future\nfpr western Canada. \"It's past and\npresent are glorious,\" he said, \"but we\nare only on the fringe of what Is to\ncome.

So did four other Canadians. But McHarg did better. He\nfollowed it up with another at the 600\nyard range, making his match Bcore a\npossible. And yet he failed to win the\n\u00a3100 offered iby the Prince of Wales,\nfor Sergt Waldingford bad also a possible at both ranges. Under the rules\nties in this match are decided hy counting out and in this instance it meant\nascertaining \"centres.\" It was here\nthat Waldingford showed up best and\nCapt.

Forrest\nof Vancouver was third with 83.\nKeen Shooting\nHow much keener shooting is this\nyear may be gathered from the fact that\nin addition to McHarg's possible, the\nCanadians today put on two 84s, three\n83s, three S2s, two Sis and, ten out of\n25 Canadians competing in this match\nwould hav\u00a9 come in the prize list last\nyear.

Holt of the United\nStates district court of New York, made\nthis statement before the Wisconsin bar\nassociation.\nIf by his career after being discharged from prison a convict proves himself\na continual menace to society Judge\nHolt would impose the death penalty.\n\"I think society would be justified\nIn assuming that the time to attempt to\na'eform htm had passed,\" said the speaker. \"Upon his commission of another\ncrime I would have him tried for what\nI think is the greatest crime a man can\nfoe charged with, that of having become\nan habitual and incorrigible enemy of\nsociety.\n\"X would give him a fair trial. I\nwould require proof that he had been\nan habitual criminal for a long term of\nyears.   '\nDeplored Mob Violence\n\"I would give him an opportunity to\nmake a full defence and If finally it\nwere established by clear proof that the\nman was one of those, numbers of\nwhom exist in modern society,\nwhose nature had been depraved by a\ni life ot undeviating wickedness into that\nof a wild beast, Incapable of any substantial Improvement or alteration, such\na man in my opinion should be solemnly\nadjudged to be put to death. But If, In\nview of the squeamish sentimentality\nof this age such a course be deemed\nimpracticable, I should shut him up for\n-life where he could do no more evil\nto society.\"\nThe jurist said that the tendency to\nmob violence and the extent of unpunished crime were the greatest menace\nto American society.\nHundreds of thousands of persons\nhave taken part in lynchlngs In this\ncountry in the last 40 years, according\nto the Judge's statistics, and all, he said\nwere guilty of murder if they acted\nwilfully, yet no person has ever been\nconvicted of murder for taking part in\na lynching.\nHe estimated that there are one hundred thousand unhanged murderers of\nthis type, most of whom live in the\nsouthern states. He said that In the\nsouthern states where night riders regulate tobacco cultivation by force, a condition of anarchy prevails.

It would be impossible to fix the line from which the\nthree mile limit should he measured inasmuch as the limits of the large bays\nwere not specified in the negotiations\nof the treaty ol 1818. Maps were not\nused, so nothing was settled concerning the limits of the bays. After the\ntreaty Great Britain had never seized\nAmerican fishing vessels in large bays\nat a distance of more than three miles\nfrom the shore and he maintained that\nGreat Britain was wrong in asserting\nthat before 1836 Americans had not\nfished in certain bays because there\nwas no mackerel in them. Before that\ndate the bays abounded with fish of all\nkinds. Up to 1905 the right of Americans to fish in large bays at a distance\nof three miles from shore had always\nbeen recognized and respected by Great\nBritain and her colonies.\nSoreness of the muscles, wnether induced\nby violent exerci&e or Injury, Is quickly\nrelieved by the free application or Chamberlain's Liniment.

Jn Victoria\nItself, however, the papers appear to have\nbeard nothing of the alleged  enterprise:\nNowhere has the inauguration of passenger airship service been observed with\nmore practical interest than, in British\nColumbia, and more particularly by those\nengaged in promoting colonization in New\nCariboo, having Fort George as Us future\ncapital. The necessity of securing Immediate and convenient transportation to\nthis new centre of population is acutely\nfelt and tbe airship is looked upon as of-,\nferlng unique facilities for meeting existing difficulties in the nature of the country to be traversed In securing connection\nwith established railways.\nThe building of roads Involves time, and\ntime saving ls regarded as extra Important\nat the present juncture. If airships can be\nemployed to connect Fort George with\npoints on the Canadian Pacific railway, a\nvery obvious difficulty In Cariboo's colonization wilt be solved. A group of capitalists particularly interested has therefore\nsent an ugent to Berlin to patronize the\nnew German agency of communication\nand to investigate all Incidental costs in\nconnection with the possible establishment\nof a similar airship service in central\nBritish   Columbia.\nIf satisfactory arrangements can be\nmade the inauguration of aerial communication between Fort George and Ashcroit\nmay be brought about by next spring at\nleast. The German airship service covers\na route of 300 miles in length and the\ndirigible employed Is said to be able to\ntravel 700 miles without a stop. The speed\non the first trip averaged almost 35 mites\nor better than that of the ordinary passenger train on many western railroads. The\nlifting capacity was 22 tons, while with :'<>\npassengers tho total weight of the load\ncarried was only five tons and a half, including the restaurant car and other\nequipment for the comfort of tbe passengers.\nSuch an airship might easily be navigated from points on the Canadian Pacific\nrailway mainland to the Cariboo, the Chilcotin or Fort George. If two or three\nstops were made on the way at bases like\nQuesnel It would not be necessary to go\nmore than 100 miles In a single flight en\nroute from Ashcroft to Fort George and\nvice versa.\nPOLICY OF THE KAI8ER IN\nLAND OF PALESTINE\nHow the  Course  of  Events  Is Summarized in Recent Press\nComments\nAfter the recent visit of the German\nemperor's second son to Palestine, the\npapers devoted a good deal of space to\nthe growing influence of Germany in\nSyria and L'Oplnlon a new French paper, published an Interesting article on\nthe subject, which was summarized by\ntiie Spectator. The course of events in\nPalestine is thus described:\n\"Twelve years ago Emperor William\nproclaimed as the object of his Syrian\nambition the 'pacific co-existence of\nProtestantism and the other confessions.' When he visited Palestine in\n1 S9S the kaiser found the Christian population alarmed <hy the massacres of\nwhich they had recently been the victims and the Mohammedans uneasy by\nfears of European retaliation. The\npresence of the German emperor did\nsomething to lessen the fears of both.\nOriental Catholicism was soon startled\nby the news that, after long negotiations at Constantinople, the chief Protestant sovereign of the European continent had obtained from the sultan a\nsite for a Roman Catholic church on\nMount Sion.\nProtectorate of Latin Catholics\n\"The protectorate of Lf.tln Catholics\nso long claimed by France had been\ngiven up by the Republican government\nand, though some of the races in whose\nfavor it had been exerted took no notice of tbe change, others accepted the\ntransfer without hesitation. Until the\ndate of the imperial visit the German\nRoman Catholics had had nothing Jn\nJerusalem beyond an unimportant mission and though various attempts had\nbeen made to give importance to the\n'German Protestant congregations, they\nhad not been attended with much success.\nJerusalem Bishopric\nThe Jerusalem Bishopric, of which\nGreat Britain and Prussia were the\njoint founders, had come to an end in\n1886 and long before that time German\ncongregations had been set up outside\nthe bishop's jurisdiction and the German Protestant chnrch in Palestine\nhad started on a career of Its own.\nFrederick William IV had re-established the Bradenburg branch of the Order\nof St. John and in 1856 he asked the\n.sultan to give him the site of the hospice wind) had'belonged to the order\nduring the existence of the Latin kingdom in Jerusalem.\nProtestant Knights of St. John\n\"It needed 12 years to gain the necessary consents, for it was not until\n,1869 that Abdul Aziz yielded to the persistent demands of the Prussian government. The Protestant Knights were now\nin possession of what had been the property of the Roman Catholic order\nseven centuries earlier.\n\"Will the German emperor succeed\nto that protectorate of Christians which\nseems the only possible substitute for\nthe protectorate of the Roman Catholic\nwhich France has abandoned? That is\na question which hardly admits of a\npositive answer. Why, it may be asked,\nshould the German government be so\ngreatly Interested in the progress of\nthe German colony in Palestine? Two\nadvantages possibly present themselves\nto German minds. One is that If, after\nall, the breaking up of the Turkish\nempire should not be averted iby the\nrecent revolution, if the heritage of the\nTurks should still have to be scrambled for, It is intelligible that a far sighted ruler may wish to secure a good\nstart. Or tbe German emperor's desire\nfor colonies is well known and he may\nthink, that Palestine has merits from,\nthis point of view, even if lt remains\nin the bands of the present owners.\"\nChamberlain's Stomach and Liver Tablets gently stimulate the liver and, bowels\nto expel poisonous matter, cleanse tbe.sys-\nI ten, cure constipation and sick headache.\nSold by all druggists ami deal**,\nstand the summer?\nThat's the real test for durability\nWhen your furnace is not in'use, the cool, damp\nair in the cellar, coming into contact with the steel or\niron dome and radiator, causes the metal to \"sweat.\"\nThis \"sweat,\" or moisture, attacks the metal* and\nquickly makes it rust.

Bullen, with his world-wide experience, Iti a good judge of how the people\nol any country regard the problem of\nmaintaining \"peace, order and good government.\" In the following paper he\nmakes some Interesting comparisons between Canada and some other countries :\nThere Is one fascinating topic arising out\nof a fairly wide observation of conditions\nin this country which 1 have left until\nnow, because I wished to make fairly certain of my ground before venturing upun\nit. It is that of law\u2014of law In Its incidence upon the minds of the people, in\nits associations with morals, with public\nwell-being In all its bearings, whether or\ncomfort, security to life and property or\nprotection from the greed of monopolies.\n1 do not know enough of Canadian law,\nlawyers and Judges to trace the workings\nof the various statutes, but i do know\nwhat the results are, and 1 am filled with\nadmiration for them,\n1 do really believe that in spite of the\nimmense number of aliens, whose ideas\nor right and wrong and Justice between\nman and man are inchoate and primitive,\nand who continually pour into her that\nCanada possesses the most law-abiding\npopulation upon the face of the earth today.\nIt is no easy task to indoctrinate these\nsemi-savages from eastern Europe, and especially from southern Italy, with British\nconceptions of law, but It Is being done\nsteadily and continuously by precept and\nexample, especially in tbe schools. True,\nthere are now and then cases of serious\ncrimes, such as murder and shocking assault, among these semi-savages, but even\nthey do feel a new leaven at work among\nthem which is sternly repressing such outbursts.\nCompared With the States.\nUnfortunately It Is impossible to consider this matter tborougniy and give it\nthe importance which It undoubtedly deserves without drawing comparisons with\nthe United States. It is one of the most\nsingular facts of which I have become\ncognizant in this country, that while the\nmanner of speech, idioms, modes of dress,\nof living, methods of business, almost\neverything in dally life in Canada, are\nborrowed from the United States, the line\n\u25a0is most sharply, definitely drawn at law-\nBy which I mean contempt, for law,\ndeliberate flouting of law hy people in\nhigh places, a general opinion that law\nand Justice are oppusltes, and that every\nman must he a law unto himself, prepared\nto enforce what he may consider to be\nhis rights or revenge his wrongs with a.\nlethal weapon, which leads to such extraordinary doings as I see reported in newspapers of wholesale train-robbery nenr\nlOgden, Utah, which supports an Immense army of hoboes, or, ns we nail them,\ntramps, in the United States, and makes\nof the great cities of the great republic,\naccording to their own newspapers and\nmagazines, sinks of municipal corruption.\nCanada Is- Law-abiding.\nNow I will not go so far as to say that\nthere are no hoboes in Canada, or railway\nhighwaymen, or cases of municipal corruption, but I find no evidences of them.\nI read In the daily press no reports of\nsuch outrages upon society. What is more\nstrange still, with so much of what at\nhome we are apt to call grandmotherly\nlegislation, Involving the creation of new\noffences, there Is still so little to occupy\nthe attention or Judges and magistrates.\nI have no statistics to guide me, only\nan earnest perusal of the daily newspapers\nin tbe cities from tha Atlantic to the\nPacific, but I should not hesitate to say\nfrom my observation of the conditions of\nlife out here that the administration of\nJustice was more cheaply provided for here\nthan anywhere else In Vis world per head\nof the population, exorfpt perhaps New\nZealand,\nCanada has no hooligan class, savngeB\not civilization, such as Infest our great\noities at home in Great Britain. The\ncorner boy, that bloodthirsty loafer ot\nUnited States cities, knoWB no countermart here. The larrikin of Australia, combining all the detestable qualities of the\nfirst two, Ib entirely unknown. You may\nBearoh Montreal, Toronto, Winnipeg, Vancouver, for him In vain, thank God, and I\ntrust that It may ever be impossible for\nany Canadian variety of the villain to\nexist. As to why Canada should be thus\nfavored there may be many theories. 1,\nns a mere visitor, would prefer to let the\nnative speak on the subject., It ls sufficiently gratifying to me to note the fact to\nbelieve as I do most fervently that lt is\n\u2022not only possible but usual for women\nwho may happen to be out late at night\non business or pleasure to go from one\n3,000 YEARS AGO THE\nEGYPTIANS CURED\nDISEASE WITH FRUIT\nTo-day, Canadians Are Doing\nIt With \"Fruit-a-tives\"\n\u2014^The Famous Fruit Mediclm\nWe are apt to consider the age we live\nin as the most wonderful age that the\nworld has ever known. It is, in many\nrespects. Yet the ancients surpassed\nus in some things. Engineers of onr\n40-story sky-scrapers still marvel at the\nmassive pyramids and the sphinx. So,\ntoo, the Egyptian physicians of 3,000\nyears ago, used fruit juices as a medicine\ntor treating blood trouble, liver and\nkidney disease, and stomach weakness.\nTheir method of mixing fruit juice as a\nmedicine, is also one of the lost arts.\nA well known Canadian physician,\nhowever, perfected a method of utilizing\nfruit juices, which is one of the greatest\ndiscoveries of modern medical research.\n\"Fruit-a-tives\" is the natural cure\nfor Chronic Constipation, Biliousness,\nIndigestion, Torpid Liver, Kidney\nDisease, Fain in the Back, Bad Complexion, Rheumatism, Nervousness,\nHeadache and Neuralgia.\n50c. a box, 6 for (2.50, or trial box, 35c,\nAt all dealers, or from Fruit-a-tives\nLimited, Ottawa.\nend of a big city to another without tbe\nslightest danger of molestation by anyone.\nThe thing ls not even thought of, much\nless practicable.\nBetter Than  Britain.\nAlas, It Is only two certain that in our\nown land of law and liberty such a thing\nIs not possible. Not only so, but every\ncriminal case tried goes to prove that all\nthe sentiment of the lower strata of society ls against the law and Its guardians,\nthe police. I know of no sadder reading\nfor one who loves his country than that\nwhich tells how witnesses, dragged against\ntheir will to give evidence in criminal\ncases, go thereafter In danger of life and\nlimb. All police testimony at home goes\nto show how difficult lt Is to get witnesses\nto prove any crime, simply because of the\nwidespread determination to defeat the\nlaw and to keep the criminal immune from\nJustice. And what shameful reading It ls,\ntoo, the frequent report of brutal assaults\nUpon the police in the execution of their\nduty, the savage mutilation of men whose\noffice it U to protect the citizen from\nviolence, and who, it may safely be said,\ndeserve well of their countrymen for the\nWay they do their work. I do not know-\nhow many times I have read recently of\na policeman being beaten, defaced, almost\noverpowered in his efforts to arrest some\nsavage brute, and some brave woman, at\nthe com of much pain and Injury to herself, blowing his whistle, and bringing him\nhelp against the cowardly mob.\nFront such scondnlous chronicles Canada\nis free, and white, I repeat, I do not\nunderstand how It is, what subtle forces\nare at work which enable the great Dominion thus to keep a high Ideal of law-\nabldingness before Us* citizens, I am content to note that It Is so and rejoice thereat.     .\nPolitical Exaggeration.\nUnfortunately, since no person or country is immaculate, it comes about that at\nsuch election times, ncciiRntlnns of dishonesty against rival politicians or men In\noffice are freely baiuneu auum, una it one\ntook these things seriously it would ap*\npear as If the science of graft were taking\ndeep root in Canadian politics. But tile\ncharges are bo puerile, the amounts In\nquestion are so absurdly small, that the\nwhole thing strikes an outsider as mere\nplaying to the gallery arter tne manner\nof our politicians at home, who have successfully solved the question, \"When Is a\nHe not a lie?\" by answering, \"When It is\ntold for political reasons or purpose of\nstate.\"\nNo, I am delighted to end ns I began\nthis article, with tiie asservatlon that nowhere on the surface of the globe Is there\nto be round a people who are more deeply\nImbued with tbe spirit which consents unto the law that it Is Rood, not merely for\nthe other fellow, but for themselves, which\ndoes aim at nnd strive successfully for\nthe greatest good to the greatest number.\nBUMPER RASPBERRY CROP\nIN CRESTON  DISTRICT\n(Special to The Dally News.)\nCRESTON, July 12,\u2014The water In the\nfamous Kootenay flats at Creston Is going down fast, nnd In n few weeks thousands of tons of good hay will be ready\nto cut and many of the local ranchers will\ntake advantage of this fact nnd will lay\nup their winter's hay nt the nominal cost\nof simply hauling it from the vast hay\nfields, These vast meadows In the immediate vicinity of Creston probably aggregate 20,000 acres.

Are the towns and cities of the\nKootenay-Boundary content to sit down\nand do nothing- while those who are\ncompeting with ub for settlers and capital are using every means in their\npower?   Will that pay?\nIs this the position,\u2014that our towns\nand cities will be glad to see private\nindividuals do the work at their own\nexpense, hut that if private individuals\ndo nothing, then nothing is to be done;\nor if the work done by private individuals is weakened by lack of funds,\nnothing is to be done to make up the\ndeficiency?\nOr shall we, by declining to consider\nthe facts of the situation and the inevitable consequences of inaction,\navoid the necessity of making up our\nminds one way or another, and simply\ndrift along? When people drift they\nusually drift downward.\nThe Dominion government spends\nmoney on immigration work; so does\nthe C. P. R.fso does the Q. N, R. Is\nthat bad business? It seems to The\nDaily News that as matters are nowadays a city or district in a new country looking for settlers and capital is\nno more justified in doing nothing to\nget them than a private business firm\nwould be justified in doing nothing to\nsell its goods.\nIt is of course not enough to make\nan appropriation unless the money is\nto be spent efficiently and effectively.\nIt is better to keep our money in our\npockets and'accomplish little than to\nthrow it away and accomplish little.\nTo get the best results in the present\nease there should be united action on\nthe part of the whole Kootenay. Surely it is obvious that no part of the\nKootenay has so much superfluous\nmoney to spend in this way that it can\nafford the waste, the loss of effectiveness and the needless duplication of\nmachinery that comes from scattered\nindividual effort.\nThe Kootenay should have a development league representing the settlers and outlying districts as well as\n\\he towns possessing boards of trade,\nand giving to all of these a voice In\nthe election of officers and the management of affairs. In such an organization the city might well take\npart. It would be fair and reasonable\nfor tbe city to make a substantial con*\ntribution to the work of development\nthat would be carried on by Buch an\norganizattlon so formed as to afford a\nguarantee of efficiency   and effectivp-\ni tor amarj at adept\nmmaammmmteaamm\nIMMIGRATION ACTS AND IMMIGRATION OFFICIALS.\nEvery once in a while reports come\nof stupid and offensive treatment of\npasaengers from Canada to the United\nStates by United States immigration\nofficials. We seem to be no better\nourselves for quite as frequently come\nsimilar reports of similar conduct on\nthe part of Canadian officials towards\npersons coming into Canada, notably\nat seaports.\nprobably the reason is the same in\nloth cases. Appointments are too frequently made as a matter of political\npatronage rather than because ot per\ntonal fitness for the office. Govern-\nare thereby brought   into din*\ncredit through the action of officials\nwho lack the good judgment and tact\nthey should hav e in order to discharge\nproperly the functions with which\nthey are entrusted.\nSome of the questions provided to\nbe asked by our immigration regulations are rather ridiculous,\u2014\"Were\nyo u ever in Jail,\" for instance. Of\ncourse the man who has been is likely to say he has not. If he Ib truthful\nenough to own up he is probably more\ndesirable than his fellow who denies\nthe fact. Sensible people of course do\nnot regard necessary questions as offensive any more than in the case of\na census taker, but all people are not\nalways sensible. Generally speaking\nthe regulations are good and should\nbe maintained and strictly enforced.\nBut evidently a good deal in their enforcement must depend upon the good\njudgment and good manners of tbe official in charge and there is a certain\ntype of person who is exceedingly apt\nto become puffed up when dreBBed in\na little authority, and when puffed up\nto become obnoxious. All such officials should be eliminated as speedily\nas possible.\nhead and frowned at him.

PITTSBURG, July 12\u2014According to\nrumors which have been quietly circulated for several days and which\nfind their way into print, this afternoon, negotiations are effected for the\nsale of a well known park in the Belle-\nfield district here to a syndicate which\nis said to contemplate organizing a\nbaseball team as rivals to tbe National\nLeague club here.\nThe rumors connect the name of\nPresident Ben Johnson of the American league with the reported deal. In\nview, however, of the understanding\nthat the American league club could\nnot invade Pittsburg without violating\nthe rules of the National baseball commission, the outcome of the reported\nnegotiations Ib a matter of keen interest and conjecture.\nBaptist Negroes Approve.\nWASHINGTON, July 12\u2014One of the\nindications of the sentiment against\nthe Johnson-Jeffries fight pictures was\nevidenced today when a religious organization representing 20,000 Baptist\nnegroes in Washington publicly commended the district commissioners for\nbarring the fight pictures here.\nZingari Leading.\nLONDON, July 12\u2014In their last innings against the gentlemen of Surrey, the Canadian Zingari cricketers\nBcored 179, W.

There\nwas none of the disorder and ragged-\nness of last evening's play, Jim Bates\ngiving excellent decisions as umpire.\nCranbrook got one over in the first innings and from that until the seventh\n.it was that lonely one for Cranbrook\nand nothing doing for Nelson. In the\nseventh Cranbrook scored again and\nNelson made its only run in the first\nof the ninth, leaving the 2-1 for the\nhome team, without being required to\nplay the last innings.\nPitched Good Ball\nKeene pitched good hall for Nelson,\nthough the Cranbrook lads found him\nthree times for the once that Nelson\nmen could find Mulloy. He is not yet\n*19 years old and recently pitched for\nGonzaga college, Spokane, of which\nhe is a graduate, against the Spokane\nprofessional team and allowed them\nonly three hits. He showed this evening that he Is away beyond the average\nof pitchers and will, likely enough be\npicked up hy one of the big leagues.\nThe same will be the natural course\nfor Mulligan, another Gonzaga boy, now-\nplaying high class hall for Cranbrook.\nIt is only fair to Keene to say he had\nnot the support tbat Mulloy had in the\nfield. It was a splendid game, about\nthe best ever seen in Cranbrook but tbe\nbetter team won, and it was team work\ndid it.\nPlayers Beat Gentlemen\nLONDON, July  12\u2014Kent cricketers\ntodav heat Somerset hy 305 runs, and\nthe Players beat the Gentlemen by ten\n.wickets,\nHillside Wins Springhlll Plate.\nNEWMARKET, July 12\u2014The Spring-\nhill selling plate of 200 sovereigns for\nthree year olds and up, distance the\nChesterfield course, five furlongs, was\nwon by Mr. Whitney's Hillside.

He declared that Jeffries could have beaten a\ndozen Johnsons before July 4, but that\nworry over several things cauBed his\ndefeat. Corbett said that Jeffries worried over the stopping of the fight by\nGov. Gillett and he feared constantly\never the news that his friends were\nbetting all their money on him and\nalso the fact that Billy Delaney, his old\nmanager, was going to aid Johnson.\nWas All In.\nCorbett, speaking of the final rub\ndown before tbe fight said. \"I have\nseen many a fellow who was all in before a fight but never one to compare\nwith Jeffries. We found our room all\nright and the big fellow Btrlpped for\na rub down.

It will interest you, no doubt\u2014read it.\nTo you as a fair minded business man, I desire to put two\nsimple questions which In self-interest you cannot put off answering.\nIs our property so Insured that in case of Its destruction\nby fire you could pay dollar for dollar to your creditors?\nAgain, in case of fire up\u00b0n your premises would your savings, perhaps of a lifetime be safeguarded by enough and sound\nInsurance to keep them intact?\nIf you cannot give me an emphatic \"yes\" as your answer,\nthen you are taking longer chances than anyone has aright to\ntake.\nWith the hazard of fire always present, not to mention\nthe hazard of conflagration\u2014 with property losses In the United\nStates steadily mounting, hav inS averaged during five years ending December 31, 1907, $250,\u00b000,000 annually, almost $690,000\ndally, does it speak well for the common sense and honor of the\nAmerican retail merchant tha t a credit man for one of the largest\nhardware houses In the Ian d can say that \"of the great number\nof property statements coming under his observation, not one\nin fifty shows that the trader is carrying sufficient insurance.\"\nIt may he that you, II ke hundreds ot other business men,\nconsider yourself comparatively free from danger of fire loss,\nbecause, perchance, your to wa or city has thus far escaped a\nscorching; a fact that Is mor \u00a9 likely due to good fortune than to\nany inherent advantages, for conditions similar to those all\nabout you have contributed again and again to widespread and\ndisastrous fires.\nYou owe it to yourself, y our family and your creditors to\nsurround your business with safeguards that will reduce to a\nminimum your chances of being embarrassed by a fire whloh\nmay begin in your premise s, or perhaps In the premises of a\nfellow townsman several blocks away. This means not only Insurance but adequate insurance* **\\\nIn most lines, stocks are larger in certain periods ot the\nyear than in others, so with changes in the value of your\nBtock, do not overlook chan King the amount of your insurance.\nTo take a chance with yo\u00abr Insurance is not business, it is\njust as important to charge Into the selling price of your goods\nthe cost of insurance as rent or interest or taxes.\nNo one can afford to se 11 you on time or lend you money if\nj you are not fully Insured, for your ability to pay when the debt\nIs due would be destroyed by fire and your creditors in that\ncase would find that they had been your insurers without the\ncompensation which a prud ent insurance company would have\ncharged for the service.\nI am not writing as an Insurance man but as a business man.\nMy only interest so far as insuring companies are concerned Is\nthat they be strong enough to meet their losses and that they\nsell insurance at a fair price.\nMy purpose 1b to see my customers protected against disaster. That's why this leaflet is written and that is why it is to\nhe followed by others whic h will point out some other matters\non insurance almost as impo -tant as that you fully insure. Perhaps you will be able to handle your insurance more under-\nstandingly after you have re ad them,\ninsure, and do It now\u2014otherwise your assets today may be\ncinders tomorrow.\nAre vou fully insured?

The house subsequently referred the bill to a committee of the\nwhole which means that the bill will\nbe shelved until tbe next year. The\ninteresting 'debate showed that many\nleading men, Including Winston\nSpencer Churchill and A. J.

Charles Rolles Dashed to Death\nin Presence of Large Crowd of\nSpectators\nBOURNEMOUTH, England, July 12\u2014\nThe first flying tournament In England\nwas brought to a tragic end by the\ndeath of the most popular British aviator, the Hon. Charles S. Holies, third\nson of Lord Llangatock. In the presence of a great company of spectators,\na majority of whom were ladles and\nchildren and many personal friends of\nthe young aviator, the biplane on which\nhe was flying suddenly dropped with\nterrific speed from a height of 100 feet.\nIt struck the ground close to the crowd\nsmashing it to a tangled mass and\nbefore the doctors and assistants could\nreach the spot Rolles was dead.\nThe event In which Rolles was competing was for a prize for the aviator\nalighting nearest a given mark. The\nmark was directly in front of the grand\nstand where the spectators were massed. He had risen to a good height,\nthen shut off his motor and was gliding in a broad circle towards the mark.\nWithout warning the tall of the biplane\nsnapped off* The machine gave a sudden lurch and the frame work crumpled\nup In the air. When it struck the\nground lt was smashed to splinters. The\ndoctors found that Rolles had a fractured skull. The wrecked machine surrounded the body so that there was dif*\nficulty in extricating him. Immediately after the result of the Holies accident the committee announced that\nflying was suspended for the day.\nDOWNING STREET WILL\nINVESTIGATE  IMMIGRATION  LAWS\nLONDON, July 12.\u2014In the commons today, Colonel Seeley, under 'Secretary ot\nstate for the colonies, said he would open\ncommunications with the Canadian government In regard to Immigration regulations.\nVICTORIA BONDS LISTED.\nLONDON, July 12-City of Victoria\n\u00a3159,800, four per cent debentures\nhave been lilted on the London stock\nexchange.\nThe High school valedictory on Monday evening was a consummation and\na revelation.   Some sixty bright boys\nand girls met along with a few older\nfriends for the purpose of telling the\nretiring principal   of the   school, C.\nMcLean Fraser, what they thought of\nhim and of giving to one another a\nglimpse of the hopes which they cher-\niBh for one another In the future.   It\nwas a mingling of the beauty   and\nglory of sunset and-dawn like that\nwhich can sometimes   be   witnessed\nfrom the deck of a ship in mid ocean\nat midsummer.   The gladness of their\nyoung lives waB for the moment subdued hy the sense that this was a high\nand solemn moment    Those who had\nworked so cheerily   together   might\nnever all meet on earth again. Thence*\nforth however high they might climb\nthey would for the most   part climb\napart.    It waB not surprising that one\nveteran confessed that all through the\nevening he had had tears in his eyes\nand the softening of his voice as he\ntold of his old teachers gave pathos\nto his testimony.   There was the revelation throughout of the steady fruitful influence of a quiet strong man's\npersonality.      Seven years had gone\nsince Mr. Fraser had begun his work\nin  Nelson High  school.    More than\ntwo hundred boys and girls had passed through his hands.     The   former\npupils had Joined with the present to\nshow him  honor.     As one  speaker\nsaid, Mr. Fraser   had   hy his work\ngained prestige for the school    and\nbad established a tradition the lustre\nof which was not likely to pass away.\nBrilliant Promise.\nThe program was sustained by the\npupils and beyond doubt gave evidence\nof brilliant promise. There was a class\nhistory   narrated by MIbb Edith Mid-\ndleton happily recording many notable\nevents.  There waB a class prophecy in\nwhich R. M, Ferguson   with   fertile\nhumorous invention forecast the careers of those now leaving the school.\nThere was a cIbbb poem in which Miss\nAdeline Lobb  touched with  graceful\nfacility on the characteristics of many\nclass mates. And there was a valedictory by Miss Mary Rutherford through\nwhich the ideal gleamed with sweet-\nnesB   and   charm.    Songs   and   instrumental music at intervals lightened the program.     Then Ernest   Matthews came forward and read from a\nbeautifully  illustrated manuscript  an\naddress of warm acknowledgment   of\nthe principal's services   and abruptly\npressed It into his hands along with\na well-filled purse containing the gifts\nof many friends.\n' Principal Replies.\nIt was difficult for Mr. Fraser to\nreply, but as he gradually gained\ncommand of his thoughts and his voice\nhe allowed himself to show something of hlB high and noble conception of the teacher's life and influence.\nMr. Fraser is not one of those who\nwears the heart upon the sleeve. He\nsaid Just enough to show what was in\nhis heart and one felt that the hearts\nof his pupils were beating in grateful\nunison with his own. Happy iB the\ncity that can enjoy the services of such\na man for seven years. And happy\nare the boys and girls who will carry\nhis image in. their memories all\nthrough their Uvea. It is not alone as\na teacher in the formal sense that Mr.\nFraBer has done his work. He has\nspared no pains to associate himself\nwith his pupils in helpful ways. The\nschool publication, the Mountaineer,\nthe vigorous literary society, the re-\nflectoscope, lectureB, the sports, the\nimprovement of the grounds, and\nmany other things have owed much to\nhis inspiration and wise guidance. He\nhas made no fuss, hut he has given\ntone to a school. He haB never advertised himself, but he has made boys\nand girls wish to be like him in the\nbest features of his character. If they\nhave not got a basts from which to\nmake a good start in life it will not\nbe due to any dullness or inefficiency\non his part.\nBrief  Addresses.\nSome brief addresses followed.   Dr.\nE. C. Arthur expressed the pride he felt\nin the high position and vital spirit\nof the High school.   Dr. J. T. Ferguson on behalf ot the parents   ot the\npupils spoke warmly of the modesty,\nklndneBs and competence of the retiring principal.   R. G. Joy in a singularly happy vein expressed for the school\ntrustees their high appreciation of his\nwork.   The principal of course was the\nhero of the evening, but the work of\nother members of the staff was not\nforgotten.    Then  came refreshments\nand an hour of dancing and conversation and then the inevitable break-up.\nBert Ferguson presided throughout tn\nhis usual unobtrusively efficient manner.     One recalled at the close   the\ngraceful lines of the school poetess:\nThey pass, they fade, they melt away\nAmong the twilight shadows gray.\nThey vanish from within our ken,\nNo longer boys and girls, but men\nAnd women, fitted for the strife\nOf minds and hands tbe world calls\nlife.\nAnd shall we know them then no more\nAnd must their influence he o'er?\nO, far from finished! just begun\nThe work which they in us have done\nAnd we have done in them, we hope,\nFor, through the fancy's telescope\nFar in the future we can see\nHow large a thing that work may be.\nThe Address.\nThe following ls a copy of the address presented to Mr. Fraser:\nC. McLean Fraser, Esq., M. A.\nDear Mr. FraBer,\u2014Goethe hat said,\n\"Where there is much, light there ls\nmuch shade,'' and It la with the deepest regret that we have learned of\nyour decision to resign as our principal.

The loss is one   that\ncannot soon he made good.\nIn the seven years during which you\nhave worked with us, your efforts have\ngone far towards pucing the school\nin its present excellent position. In\nthe class room, your work has been\nmade bright, interesting and profitable. Tou have inspired us to and\nguided us in tbe acquisition of a more\ndeveloped life.

He suggested that it was time a\nBritish 'team visited Australia.! Lord\nCheylesmore, on behalf of the Natlonnl\nRifle association, promised to do what\nhe could. He suggested that the Commonwealth council ot the rifle associations of Australia request that the next\nmatch for the Empire trophy which is\npresented toy Itself, he held at such\nplace as would enable British and Australian teams to compete.

The discussion has concerned the African elephant chiefly,\nbecause tbe Indian elephant through\nhard work as a helper of mankind, has\nbecome a valuable member of society\nand has practically saved himself; but\nthe big fellow of the African veldt has\nmerely hasked In the sunshine, played in the pools, tramped down the\nearly settler's corn and been such a\nnuisance and an idler that he has been\nconBiderd a good target for ivory hunters' guns.\nWhen the Dutch landed at Cape\nTown about 250 years ago his evil\ndays began. At that time one of the\nearly governors reported that there\nwere bo many elephants that they were\na menace to the farmer and the settler. Hunting was encouraged and\nsome remarkable bags were reported.\nIt is recorded thtt hunting parties\nwould some days kill as many as fifty\nof the big brutes. There must have\nbeen something of a chance for the\nelephant in those days of crude firearms, for even with modern firearms\nan elephant hunt is not a sport for\nthe novice.\nOne of the old-time hunters left an\nespecially interesting record for daring\nand skill. It was a trick with him to\ncall attention, according to the stories\nthat are told of his prowess to some\nfine big old hull in a herd, make a\nchalk mark on him and then kill him.\nObjected to Being Chalked.\nThe wages that this hunter made\nwith tenderfeet, It is said, kept him\nIn gin and tobacco until be happened\nto run across a lively old brute that\nobjected to being chalked and plugged\nwith lead to adorn a hunter's tale.\nThiB old hero of the herd turned on\nthe great hunter, tusked him and\ntrampled him until there was not an\nunbroken bone in bis body.\nJacobus Botha, ancestor of one of\nthe Boer leaders in the war against\nEngland, was famous as an elephant\nhunter. He used to kill four or five\nelephants a day and in this way laid\nthe foundation of quite a respectable\nSouth African fortune. A historian that\nwandered along the African coast at\nthat time reported that Botha killed\n22 elephants on two different occca-\nslonB, and that he shot as many as 13\nelephants in a day. Some one who\nknew Botha declared that it was doubtful if he ever said such a thing, and\nsuggested that some one else told the\nstory for him In order to see how\ngreat a tale that historian would believe.\nOswell, who was one of the greatest\nAfrican hunters of Livingstone's time,\nrelates that in one of his expeditions\nhe saw 400 elephants in one herd. \"As\nfar as tbe eye could reach in a fairly\nopen country,\" he said, \"there was\nnothing but elephants. I do not mean\nin serried mass, but in small groups.\"\nGordon Cumming was another famous African hunter who killed his full\nshare of big game, and F. C. Selous\nwas another. The latter is said to\nhave shot 73 elephants in three seasons with an old Dutch elephant gun.\nAlmost Exterminated.\nThe result of this slaughter lias been\nto exterminate the elephant In South\nAfrica. Today there are no herds south\nof the Zambesi and the Cunene rivers\nexcept two or three small protected\nherds in Cape Colony, a small troop\nor two in Bamangwto and Bechuana-\nland and a few in Mush on a land and\nperhaps in Matabeleland. This is all\nthat remains of the herds that 60 or\n70 years ago roamed in freedom over\nmost of the South African interior.\nThe English have taken a special interest In the elephant since they have\nseen It disappear rapidly from their\nSouth African colonies and several societies have been formed to preserve\nit. Tiiese societies have apparently\nbeen gathered into one which lias for\nits purpose the preservation of the\nfauna of all the British empire.\n\"The society devotes considerable\nattention to the preservation of the\nelephant and has sent many deputations on the subject to successive foreign and colonial secretaries,\" said\nLieut.-Col. Patterson. \"Elephant reserves at present exist In all African\ncolonies where these animals are\nfound, in Cape Colony, Transvaal,\nRhodesia. British Central Africa, British East Africa, Uganda, Somalil.tnd.\nSudan and our West African dependencies. In British Gambia no elephants\nare allowed to he killed.\"\nThe strict enforcement of the laws\nagainst the killing of elephants has\nbrought about some odd results in\nsome of the colonies. One of the missionary stations last year sent <wt a\nhurry call for some one in authority\nto come and relieve them from a slate\nof siege that had been brought about\nby a herd of elephants camping in\ntheir grounds.\nAggressive Were Killed.\nThe people of the station, on account of the game laws, could not 1.U1\n(he beasts and they could not go niit\ninto the fields to work for fear of Le*\ning trampled or run down. An officer\nwas finally detailed to kill the most,\naggressive of the herd and to drive the\nothers away to safe distance.\nOne of the greatest of tho preserves\nIs in the Kuysna foreBt, a few miles\nfrom Port Elizabeth, Here there are\nlarge herds that roam 'around fearlessly and with such an assurance of\nsecurity that they do not take 'right\nat the sight of man.\nIn the British Central African protectorate there is another wide a-ea\nset apart for the fauna of the district.\nIt Is called the Elephant Marshes, but\ncuriously enough the elephants for a\nGreater Than Ever!\nThe Red Mark Sale\nOne would naturally think that the great selling force of this sale\nwould weaken. That it would lose or exhaust some of Its wonderful\nresources.\nBut such is not the case.

In the past year\nthey have apparently taken to the\nsanctuary thus formed and are cooling\nto it in numbers.\n\u2022 In recent years it has often been\nnaked why the question of the preservation of the African elephant could not\nbe solved in the same way as the preservation of the Indian elep tant;\nthat is, by making him useful. One\nof the greatest needs in South Africa\nIs a beast of burden, and if the elephant could be trained the Bettlars\nwould have one of their greatest problems solved.\nTraining the Elephant.\nIt. seems to be not so much the case\nthat the African elephant can lot be\ntrained as It is that he can not be\nfound In sufficient numbers to Justify\nthe attempt. The habits of the African elephant are not altogether similar to those of his brother in India.\nThe latter has bis home in jungles and\nthe natives know to a reasonable degree of certainty where they may find\nhtm, but the African elephant lives\nmore in the open country and tomorrow he may he 20 miles away from\nwhere he was seen today.\nBesides the African native has not\nthe same patience or aptitude for\ntraining tbat the Indian has shown.\n\"With an Indian population in Africa,\" says an English writer, \"the\nAfrican elephant might have been\nmade quite as useful as the Asiatic\nelephant.\"\nlt is not the white hunter that is\nfeared now ns the destroyer of tho elephant, but the native who kills merely\nfor the ivory that lie can obtain. The\nbig beast,  as hns nlready been seen,\nis pretty well protected In most of tho\nEuropean colonies. The work of preservation must take into account the\nnative ivory hunter and be carried on\nin the untraveled and unfrequented\nparts ot the continent. From the amount of ivory that has been imported\nfrom Africa into Europe In the last\nten years It is estimated that about\n115,000 elephants annually have fallen\nvictims to the ivory hunters.\nUNFORTUNATE  AVIATOR\nCOMMITS SUICIDE\nMARBLBHEAD, Mass., July 12\u2014\nLieut.

Following the sudden\nresignation of Minister of the Interior\nvan Moltke and Minister of Agriculture\nvon Arnim-Kriewon, the announcement\nof the resignation of the finance minister, Froiherr von Rheinbaben naturally heightened the confusion, as his\nretirement removed the leading figure\nof the Prussian administration and a\nknown favorite of the kaiser.\nHerr Rheinbaben's desire to retiro\nafter nine years of conspicuous public\nlife is ascribed largely to the violent\nattacks made upon him, the business\nworld charging him with incompetence.\nSimultaneously with these changes\ncame the announcement that von\nSchoen has resigned. His resignation\nfollowing so soon after that of Colonial Secretary Dornburg's, which occurred a few weekB ago, and the fact\nthat five important ministerial changes\nhave been made within a month are\ncausing an excited discussion in political circles, where It ls pointed out\nthat the internal situation resulting\nfrom Chancellor Betthmann-Hollweg's\nlack of definite policies ls rapidly becoming confused and unstable.      \u2014\nKING AND QUEEN OF BELGIUM\nENTERTAINED IN FRANCE\nPARIS, July 12 \u2014 The King and\nQueen of Belgium have arrived on an\nofficial visit.

Of the total number\n1507 cabin passengers long ago reserved their accommodation for tbe best\nmonth in the year in which to cross the\nAtlantic.\nIt has been the best shipping season\nfor the port of Montreal since the prosperous year of 1907 and the figures for\nthis week as far as most of the lines\nare concerned, represent the culmination of the outgoing passenger business.\nAfter this there may be a lull for a\nfew weeks but the rush will recommence when the thousands of Canadians return home from their travels.\n\"For six weeks after Aug. 15 every\nherth has been reserved, both first and\nsecond class,\" said George Hannah of\nthe Allan line.\nA Record Season\n\"It will probably turn out to be the\nbest passenger season we ever had,\"\ndeclared the officials of the Canadian\nPacific Railway Steamship company,\nspeaking of the bookings on the Empress steamers.\nIn general the busy shipping men\nlook upon it as a particularly healthy\nsign that with two large new lines coming to Montreal this season, there\nshould still be more than enough passenger business to go all around and\nmake them all happy.\nThe following table gives an Idea of\nthe passengers leaving by this port at\nthe end of the week:\nRoyal George  '.

They are something more than mere pastimes. True,\nthey are primarily a recreation and a consequent aid to the more far-reaching alms\n.of our dally life, but running through\nthem all there is an upper current which\ncalls forth and develops the same characteristics which make or mare us in affairs of greater moment. The athlete\nlearns to appreciate the good qualities\nbrought out In himself and his comrades\nby actual competition. He learns to value\ntne great quality of gameness, the spirit\nwhich fights on undismayed In the face of\napparent defeat, and again and again at\nthe last moment pulls out a vlotory. He\nlearns to respect the rights of bis antagonists and oomes to realise that his\nIndividual success or failure Is nothing\ncompared to the success of the meeting\ndn which he Is participating, that he must\nregard the rights of the officials and the\nIs the spirit which should govern competition.\n\"In a word, then, track and Held athletics deserve to be encouraged, because\nthey are thoroughly democratic In charac\nter, becauNe they furnish an opportunity\nfor the development of brain tad muscle,\nand- because they teach a man how to\noopt*rol_l!'Ama>iajhP and how to conduct him-\nonadian\nWheat\nJlakes\nCANADIAN\nWHEAT FLAKES]\nLarge packages of \"B A K\" quality,\neach containing as a premium a piece I\nof popular white and Gold Clover Leaf '\nChlnaware.   dood goods, valuable premium.
