The  \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd'manifesto' contains many daring  statements. It bears the names of  the many members of the parliament  who issued it and most forcibly denounces the. grand dukes and the  land, owners. The document concludes with the ominous words:  \"Down with the government. Down  with the emporer. Long live the  dear, free Russian people.\" Warrants, charging them with treason,  have been issued for the arrest of  those who signed the manifesto.      \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd  St. Petersburg, Aug. 3.\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdThe  government is panic stricken over  the continued success of the Sveaborg revolt. Sveaborg, the Russian  Gibraltar, is completely in the hands  of the revolutionists, who sunk, two  torpedo boats and-ovcrwhelmingly  defeated the government troops and  warships in the bloody battles of  Monday and Tuesday. Yesterday  revolutionist workmen urged a general .strike and il is slated that the  population is responding to the call  to arms. Revolts are expected to  occur at the Cronstadt and Sevastopol fortresses at any minute.

The Hon. Richard McBride, Premier and .Minister of Mines- for British Columbia, arrived in camp by  Tuesday's boat. He spent Tuesday,  Wednesday and Thursday driving  about the various creeks and inspecting the mining operations being  carried on.  \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd When Premier McBride addressed  a public meeting at Discover}' on  Wednesday evening, Arctic Brotherhood hall was well filled by people  who gave him a hearty reception.  Tbe applause that punctuated the  speech\" gave evidence of the keen  appreciation of the. good points  scored by the minister. Mr. Jules  Eggert, president of the Conservative Association, was in the chair  aud the local member, Dr. Young,  M.P.P., who gave a short and forcible address, was very warmly applauded.  The chairman opened briefly by  referring to the Premier's trip as a  good practical way to get an insight  into local requirements and conditions. He also incidentally pointed  out the satisfactory manner in which  the present government had put the  finances of the province on a sound  business basis. .  The Premier in opening dealt  shortly with the points brought out  by the chairman, showing how from  a condition borderingon bankruptcy,  the McBride government had lifted  the province into favorable financial  standing and that for the past three  years there has been a substantial  surplus in the treasur}'. He mentioned Dr. Young in eulogistic terms  showing his devotion to the interests  of Atlin district and the good work  he had accomplished including the  recent amendments to the Placer  Act. Referring to the general policy  of the government the Premier showed that instead of being under the  thumbs of corporations, they had increased the taxes on railways and in  other ways had shifted the burden  of taxation to the shoulders of. those  most able to bear it and relieving  the poor man as far as possible. The  result of tho various bye-elections  proved that the policy pursued met  with public approval. Tbe government, by forcing the lumbermen to  saw the timber within the province,  had been instrumental in enormously increasing ihe sawmill industry;  they had encouraged fruit growing  and agriculture, had discouraged  charter mongers, , brought about  economies in tlie civil service and  had brought stability to mining by  refusing to tinker.with the legislation affecting that industry. He defended the Kaien Island deal, showing that it was a business-like bargain in the bestinterestsof thepeople  of the province, and incidentally he  mentioned the fact that he bad received a telegram from Victoria  stating that the charges made by the  Vancouver World iu the Pendray  matter had collapsed when inquired  into before the Royal Commission  and Mr. Higgius had been forced to  admit that after hearing the evidence  he was obliged to change his opinion.  Upon the Premier resuming his  seat the audience was invited to ask  any questions or bring up auy matter that is was desired to place before him as Minister of Mines.  Nobody volunteering  Dr. Young  said be had heard that men were  coining here lo call the government  down \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd and so he added, \"If any of  those fellows have anything to say  get up and do it now.''  \"They can't do it Doc,\" remarked  a voice and the audience laughed  heartily.  Dr. Young then made a brief  speech testifying to the good legislation carried out by the government  and liow they had acted in tbe best  interest of the district. He answered a number of questions for information on various matters and invited  anyone to make suggestions .that  might be useful when be went back  to the next session of the legislature.  In reply to Mr. Norman McLeod,  Dr. Young said that the policy  pursued today was to cancel hydraulic leases where the ground  was not being worked.  Mr. Conroy rising, to make a general'charge of favoritism against an  official, Dr. Young said he had already, when the rumor was brought  to him, asked for a specific. charge  in writing but no one had ever done  this.  The Premier remarked that, if a  specific charge was made he would  have it- thoroughly investigated.1  He also pointed out that in regard  to. troubles over some of the leaseholds, these leases had been granted  before the present government came .  into\" power and some were in' lili-  gation. The government could not  step in till there was some breach of  the statute that justified cancellation  and where the courts were dealing  with ground the government had to  wait till litigation was settled.  The meeting broke up with a vote  of thanks to the chair and applause  for the speakers of the evening.  On Thursday night the Premier  addressed a meeting at the Kootenay  hall which was well attended, many  ladies being present. The speaker  touched on practically tbe same  points as at Discovery.  At the close of the Premier's address Mr. Woods took the platform'  to refute the attack made on the  Gold Commissioner the evening  previous, and at the same time he  wished himself put on record as declaring the McBride government  the weakest British Columbia has  ever had, declaring it was governed  by the Socialists. Mr. Woods spoke  at some length on this question and  in concluding moved a vote of confidence in Mr. Fraser, which was  seconded by Mr. Wheeling and  unanimously carried.  Before the close of the meeting  the Premier answered Mr. Woods  and his attack on the government,  and in a'few. words made many iu  the audience shake hands with  themselves that they had not made  an attack. He thought that Mr.  Woods' whole speech was \"Wa-wa.\"  The Premier, Mr. Macrae and;  Dr. Young left at midnight Thursday for Taku, where the R.N.W.M.  Police launch Gladys awaited to  take them to Carcross, at which  place they were to be met by His  Hon. Gov. Mclmiis. ATLIN,    B.

In places in\nBritish Columbia this provision, has\napparently worked   a'seeming hardship when the prospector lias had to\npack the pests with which to  stake!\na claim up over a mountain   range;\nand   the   result   has  been   several\nheavy lawsuits iu   which'lhe:   provision has been up-held.\nIn the Yukon, however, a inan\nmay erect stone monuments if he is\nabove timber line, or where the\ntimber is not easily available.\nOn the Wheaton river all the\nclaims are high up the mountains,\nu great deal of the limber has at\nsome time or other been destroyed\nby fire, and the result is that every\nclaim has been slaked bv ereclinsr\nmonuments. The mountains are\ncovered by rock slides and it is impossible to locate the monuments\nunless you happen to run right on\ntop of them.\nA great deal of dissatisfaction exists among the prospectors on account of tbe use of monuments, and\npractically all agree that the compulsory use of stakes would be more\nsatisfactory all round.\nOne man in particular spent a\nweek prospecting a sidchill\u2014he\nlooked all over for monuments,\nstaked and travelled forty miles to\nrecord his claim, only to learn after:\nwards that he had overlooked three\nlarge monuments which' were only\ndistinguishable when within fifteen\nfeet of them by reason of the nature\nof the rocky sides of the mountain.\nThe British Columbia provision\nmay seem'hardy but after all it\nworks for the benefit of the prospector.\nendowed with that sort of plenary\npower known in slang as 'the long\ngreen.' Of this he had plenty, and'-\nlie also had his instructions. In\nfuel, from our information, he appeals to have had everything except\nthe brains necessary to carry his\nproject to a successful conclusion.\nThe lack of this most desirable requisite led him lo distribute (he\n\"palm-oil\" he brought wilh so little\ndiscretion as lo overlook two of the\nmost prominent officials.
