B.C.. FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 4, 1903\nNO. 118\nTIE QUESTION\nIS\nReliance Wins Third Race\nfor Cup\nScene at the Finish Was a\nDramatic One\nNew York, Sept. 8.-JThe official time In\ntho America's cup race today was ns follows: i\nSTART.\nReliance 1:01:56\nShamrock 1:02:W\nFINISH.\nReliance 5:30:02\nShamrock Did not finish\nReliance, tho America's cup defender,\ntoday won tho third and final race and the\naeries, for tbe America's cup.\nIn a dense fog, which prevented vision\nboyond-axi yards, she tlnlshed the race at\n5:30:02. Shamrock 111., after running for\nmoro thnn nn hour in the fog, missed the\nfinish lino passed It, und Ihen returned to\nIt from the opposlto direction. As the\nReliance wns then being towed through\ntho licet, Shamrock III. did not cross the\nfinish line.\nThis successful result was achieved only\nafter four futile attempts to sail off the\nfinal race and after the outcome had been\nadmitted, by even sir Thomas Lipton, to\nbe a foregone conclusion. Today's race\nwas the eighth attempt to sail a race.\nlAfter one fluke, tho Rolianco won the\ntwo following contest, ono bv seven\nminutes, nnd three seconds; and tiie other\nby ono minute and nineteen seconds.\nA week ngo today an attempt lo sail the\nthird rnce failed, ami attempts have been\nmade every day this week. On two, tbe\nReliance lend the Shamrock to t\"no finish\nline by about two miles, but failed to reach\nIt before tbo expiration of the tlmo limit\nor five and a halt hours.\nToday's victory moans that the cup Is\ndestined to remain In America for at least\nanother year.\nRarely, if ever, has there been a more\nspectacular finish than tbo Reliance's today. After sailing for fore than nn hour\nat a terrific speed through a blinding fog,\n,tho Reliance hurst through the wall of\nmist upon tbe view of the spectators on\ntho licet nssemhled at the finish line, and\nheeling over under n great bellying balloon\njib topsail until her loo mil was awash,\nfled across tbo finish line almost before\nthe spectators could determine for n\ncertainty lhat It was sho. Once more a\nYankee bont had added to the long string\nof victories In contests for tbe honored old\nsliver trophy that carries with It tho blue\nribbon of the sea.\nA fleet of less than 30 vessels wont down\nto the familiar waters of the International\ncourse to witness this fifth effort of the\nReliance to covor tbe course of thirty\nmiles within the time limit. It had become a race of the American bout against\ntime, Instead of a contest of two well\nmatched crafts.\nWhen they reached tbo lightship a gentle\nsoutheast wind of five knots that barely\nwrinkled the surface of the sen, gave but\nfaint promise tbat this was to be tho\nflnal day, hut a shift uf the wind to the\nsouth shortly before noon revived the despairing hopes of the yachtsmen for it\nblow away the misty haze which had been\nbanging over the course since the easterly storm of last week. The regatta committee waited until the lust moment to\nsend the boats awuy at one o'clock, after\nwhich hour had been agreed thai no ruce\nshould be slarted.\nTho duel between the skippers began at\nthe Bound of the preparatory gun and continued through a series of brilliunt manoeuvres in whicli captain Barr proved his\nsplendid seamanship by out-guneiullng\noaptaln Wringe. During the Iii minutes\nbefore tho starting gun, captain Barr held\ntbe British bout under his lee and tor\nmost of tho tlmo blanketted him. Hc\nnever relinquished the windward position\nwhich ho held when tbo preparatory gun\nwas llred. Ten minutes later both boats\nwere heading away from the tine, the\nShamrock luffed and forced Uie Reliance\nabout. The Reliance held her under her\nlee.\nThe official starting time wus Reliance\n1,01:68, Shafrock 1:02:00. Tho Shamrock\nactually crossed tho lino at 1:03:03 and suffered a handicap of three seconds. Both\nwere heading seaward, but as the Reliance\n(from tiie ieo bow of tho Shamrock wus\nback-winding 'ner hcudsalls, the Shamrock\nIII. promptly whirled about and headed\ndown the Jersey coast. Tbe Reliance held\non for a minute then followed. The manoeuvre placed the Reliance to windward\nbut astern of the Shamrock. They wont\noff at a swift pace in the freshening\nbreeze, Captain Wringe attempted to outsail the defender by giving bis boat a good\nfill, while captain Barr pinched the Reliance close to the wind and cleverly nursed her toward tho turning mark, The\nShamrock at llrst footed faster but the Reliance more than mudo it good by outpointing her.\nFor mure than an hour they sailed down\npast the shore ol* Sandy Hook, and the\nhighlands of Navcsink to Seabrighl, and\nduring all that time the Reliance steadily\nworked up to windward of the beaten challenger, outpointing and outooling her at\nthe same time, and passing to windward\nof her. When tliev tacked off Seabrlght\nheading seaward, the American boat bad\ngained a quarter of a mile straight to\nwindward of tho British craft, On this\nnew tack, captain Wringe again gave his\nboat a good fill and shot through the\nReliance's lead at an alarming gait, but\nall W no purpose. When at 3:10 both boats\nheaded off to the mark six miles away, the\nReliance was a good mile ahead and gaining. Heeling to a freshening wind and\nJumping into a rising sea which at times\nthrew their long bows high out of the\n\u25a0water to come down with a splash that\nsent minnture clouds of foam Hying from\nunder their powerful shoulders, tho boats\nwere making a pretty spectacle of It.\nThey wero gaining in Bpeed with every\nmile, and Shamrlck III. was a long mile\nastern when Reliance whirled about the\nmark and towering stretches of canvas\nbroke and bellied out from her spinnaker\npolo and over her lean bow. The home\nstretch had begun.\nTho boats were timed at the turn as follows:\nReliance 3:40:35\nShamrock 8:61:46\nThe Reliance had gained 11 minutes and\n' three seconds in the thresh to windward.\nAs tho boats started the run homeward\nunder spinnakers and balloon Jib topsails,\na split about three foot long appeared in\ntbe foot of Reliance's spinnaker, but as\nIt drew well, captain Barr continued to\ncarry it. For threo quarters of an hour\nthe only variation wos a slow gain by the\nleading boat. The sky was clenr and the\nslanting rays of the yellow western sun\nwere painting a beautiful marlno picture\nwith the two yachts as contml figures,\nwhen at 4:20 o'clock, with almost half the\ncourse yet to be sailed, a thick bank of\nfog came rolling in before a southeast wind\nand enveloped the Shamrock in a blind\ngray mist that shut her out of the vision\nof the fleet as though she bad been wiped\noff tbe surface of the sea. The Reliance\nran along for Ave minutes longer wilh the\nsun glinting upon her soils until tho fog\nbank reached and rolled over her and\nsho too disappeared from sight..\nThe two racers sailed in this dangerous\nfashion at topspeed for an hour, meantime\nthe navigator carrying the regatta committee hunted for the lightship to establish the finish line. It was 6.2U before\nshe found it and the ileet began to gather\nabout her. All was a black wall of fog.\nTen minutes they waited, then tho Reliance, heeling low before tho wind, her\nsails bellying hard and her rails drugging\nup tliu spent-drift, ran through the veil\nof tho fog and burst upon the view of the\nwatchers of the fleet. Hardly had they\nrecognized tbo familiar features of the\n.American craft, with her great jib topsail fluttered into the arms of her nimble\ncrew out on her bowsprit as sho lied across tbo lino down tnruugh the line of\nyachts to victory. The whistles of every\ncraft In tho fleet opened wide in recognition of her achievement. The Reliance's\ntug searched the fleet for the racer and\nthen towed her though it with yachting\nensigns fluttering frum her mast and\nspreaders, while Hags appeared at various points ou the spars and rigging uf\nthe Corsair und the whistles of the fleet\nagain saluted the defender, Mcuntlme the\nregatta committee's tug whistled shrilly\nin Its guiding signals to tho missing Shamrock. The Reliance had crossed the line\nut 5:30:02, and It was alter 6 o'clock, the\nfug lifting afterward, disclosed tlio challenger hovering to the north of the line.\nCaptain Wringe had missed it ln the fog\nand passed by to tbe east of It. The Sham\nrock did not attempt to cross the line,\nbut after a feeble suluto from the fleet\nwus taken In tow to the hook. The fleet\nstarted for borne and Ihe series of races\nIn defence of the America's cup for 11)03\nwere ended and American genius, brains,\nand seamanship were once moru triumphant.\nMINTO WAS INDISCREET\nGOSSIP OP GREENWOOD.\nISpoclal to The Dally News.]\nGreenwood, Sept. 3,\u2014Tbe Greenwood\nboard of trade had a large number pies-\nent at a special meeting yesterday.

What would be\nthought or said if the King on some\npublic occasion espoused the cause of\nMr .Chamberlain? What would be\nsaid if he used the language of Lord\nMinto at the Montreal banauet?\nThe King, of course, would not be\nso 111 advised, but If he ventured on\nsuch a course the great esteem in. which\nhe is held would not save him from\ngeneral censure. It may be a hardship that the governor general must\nnecessarily be restricted ln his utterances, but It is a restriction to which\nthe King of England submits, and it\ncan scarcely be objected to by the King's\nrepresentative.\"\nNEIL McCALLUM RETIRES.\n[Special to The Daily News.]\nGrand Forks, Sept, 3.\u2014Neil McCallum. the liberal candidate for this district, has notified his election committee that as he has to leave for the\neast shortly tn connection with the administration of an estate of which he is\none of the trustees, and will be detained\nseveral months, he must retire from the\ncampaign.

Last evennlg a despatch\nwas received by A. O. Goodeve, secretary\nof the board, from W. A. Galllher, M.P.,\nstating that the direct service from Nelson had been authorized. Thla will mean\nthat a large amount of business that has\nbeen heretofore lost to Nelson will now\nfollow the natural channels und be transacted here.\nThe,matter was first called to the attention of tho board early lust summer by\nThe Dally News, lo whom representations\nhad been made by the merchants and\npeople of the upper country. The board\ntook Uie matter up vigorously, but was\nunable to have anything done last year\nowing to certain objections raised by tlio\npost offlce department. It was alleged\ntbat as Trout Lako was closed to navigation for at least four months of tlio\nyear, the changing around of the service\nwould bo very inconvenient ond lead to\ncomplications. Last winter It wns brought\nup again by tbe board of trade several\ntimes, with tho object of having the service established when navigation opened,\nbut the department still refused to act.\nMr. Galliher, however, never let up In\npressing the necessities of the case on the\nattention of the olllcials, and ns mentioned\nabove tho department has ut last authorized the service.\nThe changes It will make In the postal\nservice betwen here and Poplar creek, for\nInstance, will be Immense. At present a\nletter posted at Nelson for Poplar creek,\non say Saturday night, would leave on\nMonday evening's train for Robson. At\nRobson It would rest over night, going\non by tug to Thompson's Landing Wednesday murnlng. From Beaton It would\ntravel on Wednesday by stage to Ferguson and thence to Trout Lake, nnd If It\narrived In time would catch the afternoon\nbont for Gerrard, and thence on to Poplar\nthat evening. In one instance a letter was\nBent from Trout Lake addressed lo Nelson\non a Wednesday. The following Friday\nthe writer rode over to Camborne nnd\nthence on to Beaton, slopping at the latter point over night. Saturday he came to\nNelson but there was no letter hero, and\nIt did not show up till tiie following Tuesday. This caso was representative of\nmany others. As a consequence the merchants of the Lardeau towns preferred\nsending an order to Revelstoke or even\nVancouver, knowing that they could figure\nout to within a day or two when an express or mall package would arrive, and\neven guess within a couple of weeks regarding freight. With Nelson orders it\nwas too much of a gamble, as if by any\nchance the merchant to whom the order\nwas addressed happened to bo out of certain lines a good part of the seuson would\nbe over before explanations nnd counter\norders could be made. There was not\neven a direct telegraph service, messages\nhaving to be sent by telephone to ltenlon,\nnnd thence wired via Arrowhead, Naturally the merchants of this city did business at a disadvantage with these towns.\nNow this will all be changed. A rush\norder sent rom Ferguson or Trout Lake\nsay Monday afternoon would reach here\non Tuesday morning, and the goods could\nbo sent out on thf boat the same afternoon, reaching tho buyer by midnight.\nThis will give our wholesalers and Jobbers\nan opportunity to secure the trade of this\ndistrict lhat should not be overlooked, and\nIs not likely to be.\nThis constitutes the third Important improvement that Mr. Galllher has secured\nln the Kootenay moll service during the\npresent session, nnd as Nelson has received the principal advantages to he derived\nfrom these changes In each instance it Is\nprobable some, action will be taken by\ntbe board of trade to\/express the appreciation of tho business men for Mr. Galliher's\nefforts on their behalf.\nMORE DETAILS.\nWhat the Recent Strike Near Trout\nLake Means to tbo Lardeau.\n[Special to The Dally News.]\nTrout Lako, Sept. 3\u2014Tho greatest\nexcitement prevailed in Trout Lake on\nMonday last, caused by the discovery of\nfree gold in large quantities on the\nWlnslow claim, five miles from Trout\nLake, on the summit, of the trail.\nAlthough the original discoverers,\nDavie and O'Donnell, wished to keep\ntbe matter quiet, it leaked out, and on\nSunday night men were hurrying up\nthe trail with lanterns, to be on the\nground by daylight\nThe news .gradually spread, and by\nnoon on Monday a general stampede\nhad set ln, leaving the town pretty\nshort of men.

P.\nIs Seriously BI and His Death is Momentarily Expected.\nLondon, Sept. 3.\u2014News of ttie serious illness of Kelr Hurdle will be received with\nInterest ln organized labor circles in America, for, by reason of his several visits\nto the United States, his name ia almost\nas familiar ln that country as on this side\nor the water. For several weeks he lias\nlain at his London lodgings, too ill to be\nremoved to bis home ln Scotland. His\ndeath, which it is feared may be Imminent, undoubtedly would leave a gap in the\nranks of British trades unionism which It\nwould be dlfllcult to fill, however much\npublic opinion may be at variance regarding the man himself.\nFor years Mr. Hardie has occupied a conspicuous place in tho public eye, His\nfollowers speak of bim as the greatest\nlabor leader England has produced. Those\nwhoso doctrines do not coincide with his\nterm him a mere empty fraud, a blatherskite, pure and simple. It Is evident that\none who draws forth such cxtermes of\npraise and vituperation must of necessity\nbe possessed of qualities out of the ordinary. Hardlo Is now nearlng bis fiftieth\nyear and has been Identified with labor\nunions and socialistic propaganda ever\nsinco be was able to think for himself,\nand be begun to think when he was a\nmere lad. Born in a little village ln tbo\nmining region of Ayrshire, he got a very\nscanty education, and then bad to go to\nwork. Like his father and most of his\nrelatives he began work as a driver at\nthe surface dumps of tbo coal mines.\nWhen lie got older ho went to work underground. He early became imbued with\nthe Idea that the laborer was getting anything but justice. From ttie teachings of\nIds fellow-laborers he became interested\nin the theory of socialism and began an extensive course of reading. He had a natural facility In speech\u2014a \"gift of gab\"\nhis enomies call it\u2014and before ho was\ntwenty-one was one of tho best public\nspeakers In tho region where he lived.\nBefore he wus twenty-five his leadership\nIn several strikes had made his name welt\nknown In all the border mining regions\nund from there spread throughout the\nEnglish laboring world. Hut Hardle WM\nnot satisfied with merely speaking ot socialism and talking of the things that might\nbe accomplished for and by the laboring\nclasses. Legislation was the only means\nof bringing about the desired reforms,\nand to legislation and its attendant, practical politics, Mr. Hardlo turned his attention. After studying the situation ho organized tbe independent labor party. Tho\nindependent labor party grew slowly in\npower until in 1893 It was able to elect\nHardie to the house of commons. With\ntheir leader in the commons tlio members\nof the party hoped to secure much. Other\nlabor parties also were hopeful, and politicians generally awaited with some anxiety Bardie's next move,\nThe flrst surprise camo the day he took\nIlls seat. It is an unwritten law of tho\nhouse of commons that each member\nshall wear a black frock coat and a silk\nhat Mr. Hardie did not feel bound In any\nway by this rule, and when he appeared\nTie hud on a coster's cap, and n greasy\nsack coat. To say lhat ho created a sensation is to put it mildly, Tho old members were shocked at what seemed to\nthem a sacrilegious trampling upon tradition. But Mr. Hardies followers were\npleased Immensely.\nWON'T GIVE OUT MEDALS\nNONE FOR CANADIANS WHO DID\nNOT SMELL POWDER.\nOSLER'S DENIAL.\u2014BRITISH COLUMBIA MARKSMEN.\nOttawa, Sept. 3.\u2014In the houso this\nmorning the correspondence between\nthe Caadian and the British military authorities regarding medals for the 3rd,\n4th, 5th, and 6th Canadian contingents\nwhich arrived In Soutli Africa after the\nend of the war, was brought down.

J. R. Carter, second secretary of the United States embassy, and Mr. Pope, a representative of\nthe Canadian government, were appointed\nas assistant secretaries.

At the end of the\nroom a platform has been constructed\nand on It was a long desk with a blue\ncovering. Behind this desk are six chairs\nfor the commissioners. Separate tables\nwero provided for tho counsel.\nWhen the commissioners assembled they\nImmediately began a private conference\nwhich resulted in tho selection of tho\nofficers mentioned. Later the commissioners exchanged credentials and took\ntho oath required by the treaty.\nA few minutes ufter II o'clock the commissioners took their seats. Senator Turner on the extreme right then sir Louis\nJette, formerly of the superior court ot\nQuebec, Ueutennnt governor of Quebec,\nand doctor of civil law; E.

The agents of the\nrespective governments sat at the extreme\nright and left of the commission, while\ncounsel and the stenographers occupied\ndesks facing the commissioners. Lord AlverBtone after announcing that tbo commission was in session, stated that *ie had\nbeen selected us president, an honor which\nhe highly appreciated, and saying that Mr.\nTower hud beon selected as secretary and.\nMr. Carter and Joseph Pope aa assistant\nsecretaries, asked counsel when they do-\nslred to begin the oral arguments. Sir\nRobert B. Flndlay, the attorney-general\nin behalf of tbe British counsel, suggested\nthat at least two weeks would be required for preparation, to which Judgo John\nM. Dickinson, representing the American\ncounsel, assented though he said the American counsel would be ready In a week.\nOctober 9th wns fixed upon as tbe day\nwhen the oral argument would be finished.\nTho commission decided to sit five days\nper week commencing September 6th and\nexcluding Saturdays, and granted permission to admit a limited representation\nof the press.\nIt 1ms been arranged that threo counsel\nfor each government shall mako arguments, the BrltiBli opening, and being followed alternatively by Americans and\nBritish, tho former securing the advantage of delivery of tho closing argument.\nThe commission then removed the Injunction of secretion of documents liithorto\nexchanged and the sitting was adjourned,\nthe commissioners, agents and counsel\nproceeding to tho quadrangle, where they\nwere photographed.\nTHE KING ON THE CONTINENT.\nCordial Relations Between His Majesty\nand the Austrian Emperor.\nVJonnn, Sept. 3.\u2014King Edward left Vienna this morning for London emperor\nFrancis Joseph accompanied his majesty\nto tlio railroad station whero the leave\ntaking was most cordial.\nAlthough during his visit here king Edward has not sought a private conference\nwith premier count Ooluchowski, it is believed the Balkan troubles have been the\nsubject of discussion between tbo king and\ntho Austrian emperor, it is pointed out\nthat count Qoluchowskl and other Austrian ministers bnve attended the numerous imperial functions in king Edward's\nhonor.

The\nColonist particularly objects to any\ncomments made by this paper upon\nMcBrlde's scurvy treatment of the men\nwho helped Mm into office, and to his\nconnection with the Columbia and the\nland grant scandal.\nThe Colonist has a very short memory. At the time McBride was called\nupon to form a government the conservative Colonist was one of the first papers in the province to revile him for\nhis treatment of the liberals who work-\nwith him in opposition, and to pointedly refer to his connection with the\nColumbia and Western land grant scandal.\nThe Colonist remarks anent McBrlde's\ntreatment of his former supporters were\nas follow:\n\" If he (McBrido) has to take the\ndisagreeable alternative of playing fast\nand loose with the liberal supporters\nln the legislature, as against playing\nfast and loose with the conservative\nparty, we have certainly no advice to\ngive him upon the ethical aspects of\nBuch a choice, but we can toll him this,\nthat if he plays fast and loose with the\nconservative party, that party will drop\nhim a thousand fathoms deep.\"\nIt is well known that McBride preferred to play fast and loose with the\nliberals, who brought about the situation which foisted him into ofllce. As\nlo McBrlde's connection with the Columbia and Western land grant scandal,\nthe Colonist said:\n\" It must further be remembered that\nthe position of McBrlde in reference to\na very large section of the conservative\nparty Is complicated by the series of\npolitical events leading up to bill No.\n10. There aro a number of conservatives who will ask what difference in\nreality exists between D. M. Eberts and\nR. McBrido, that the ono should be\nbrought low and the other elevated as\nthe result of matters to which it is\nneedless to refer.\"\nThe Colonist emphasised the fact\nthat McBride was not considered as a\nleader of the conservative, party, but\nmerely \"an expedient,\" and that his\ngovernment was \"a temporary and\nmakeshift government.\"\nln a later Issue the Colonist referred\nto ' 'the purely temporary character of\nthe McBride government,\" and declared\nthat \"it is a radically unfair thing to\nask conservatives to vote confidence in\nhim.'\nTho Colonist sees things in a dlf-\nferene light now. It is prepared to\naccept McBrido as leader of the conservative party. It seeks to have ignored his cowardly betrayal of the men\nwho helped him to secure ofllce, and it\nis particularly desirous that no further\nreference should be made to his connection with the Columbia and Western\nland grant scandal.\nMcBride has forced himself upon tho\nconservative party. Kor a short time\ntho Colonist hoped to be able to induce him to cltaco himself so that\nColonel Prior might resume tho leadership, but McBrlde evinced such a disposition to hold on to what he hod\nso treacherously obtained that the\nColonist Anally decided to throw In its\nlot with him. McBrido was then, and\nis now, regarded with very littlo favor\nby the conservative party. He was\nopenly decried by conservative papers\nthat have since accepted his leadership.\nBecause the conservative press see lit\nto forgot McBrlde's record is no reason\nwhy the liberal press should follow\nfollow suit McBrlde has been condemned by his own party papers. In\nclear and unmistakable language he was\ncharged with treachery to both political parties, and In equally clear language ho was accused of as guilty participation in tho Columbia and Western\nland grant scandals as D M. Eberts.\nTho facts of McBrldo's treachery to I\nYou won't harden or shrink\nwoolens with Sunlight Soap.\nThe purity of the oils and fats\nand the absence of free alkali\nprevent that 8B\nhis former supporters are known to all\nmen, and his connection with the land\nscandal Is set forth in the evidence\ntaken by the committee of Inquiry into\nthat outrageous attempt to rob the province.\nThe Daily News will make no unfair\nattack upon premier McBride or any\nother political opponent, but McBrlde's\npenile actions are fair matters of comment, and .as such will be plainly\ndealt with in these columns whenever\nnecessity arises.\nThere is not a thinking man in the\nprovince today at all conversant with\nMcBrlde's record, and more particularly\nwith the facts of his connection with\nthe Columbia and Western land grant\nscandal, but believes that if he has not\nalready done so he is fully prepared to\nsacrifice the prospects of Individual\nprospectors and the province in the\nEast Kootenay coal and oil lands for\nthe benefit of the Canadian Pacific\nRailway company.\nTHE WHITE PLAGUE.\nA most important question is that of\npublic health. Preventive medicine\nhas made rapid strides within the past\nfew years, and a great struggle Is now\nin course of progress for overcoming\nthe dread ravages of the most insiduous\ndiseases which seem more able to resist the efforts of hygienists to lessen\ntheir frequency and virulence.\nTho fight against consumption is an\nrafsiuiire of the warfare that is being\nwaged constantly nowadays to Improve\nthe general health conditions of the\nworld at large. Many associations\nhavo been formed to combat the inroads of the white plague, and re-\ncetly another such has been added to\nthe list of such societies in Canada.\nThis is the St Francis League, formed\nln the province of Quebec, and of it and\neo yc eta taoin sirrdlu taoin hrdluht\nthe work it proposes to do the Monetary Times says:\nThe objecft of the society Is to prevent the spread of the disease of tuberculosis, commonly known as consumption, by distributing literature regarding the means to be adopted for its\nprevention; by assisting needy consumptives; by securing legislation such as\nwill tend to limit the spread of the disease. A committee of medical men\nwas appointed to draw up suggestions\nto aid ithe various committees in the\nwork. This journal has repeatedly\nurged the need of restrictive measures\nto repress this dire disease. There\nare various ways of combating it.\nPeople must be taught that the spitting of consumptives is a source of\ndanger. Thousands of spores may be\nsot free to fill the air with poisonous\ngerms from the sputa of a single consumptive spitting ln a street car. And\nthe modern methods of isolation of patients and their outdoor treatment\nshould be taught to those who do not\nknow that this disease can be combated\nsuccessfully.\nThe health measures taken by the authorities of the province of Ontario have\nbeon of such effect that the province\nhas a right to claim that its mortality\nper thousand from contagious diseases\nof 0.43 was lower than ln any other\ncountry in tho list, including Great\nBritain, in which Scotland was lowest,\nwith a mortality of 0.47 per 1,000. In\nNew Jersey the rate Per thousand population of deaths from smallpox, diph-\nthoriu, and scarlet fever was 0.72;\nwhereas ln Illinois and Massachusetts\nit was 0.80. The chairman of the provincial board of health, Dr. H. E. Vaux,\nsays tbat the increasing adoption of\nregular systems of sewerage and waterworks by many towns, notably Stratford, Listowel, Woodstock, and Southampton, has had much to do with the\nreduced number of cases of typhoid fever.\nEDITORIAL NOTES.\nThe Reliance has finally won, and\ntho races for the America's cup this\nyear are over, something to be thankful for, since the flrst two races plainly\nshowed whicli was tho better boat, and\ntho prolongation of the agony was cx-\ncossively trying. It Is a relief also\nto learn that Sir Thomas never made\nthe remarks about lils designer credited\nto him ln tho Associated Press reports\nof tho lost two days' racing. He has\nperfect confidence ln his designer,\nskipper, and crew, and will make no\nchange among his fellow workers if\nhe tries to lift the cup another year.\nTho Dominion must regain tho Canada's\ncup beforo making tho greater venture,\n%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%*%*%%%Vt*%%%%%%1\n?THE\nSUBSCRIPTION 83 PER ANNUM.

It is denied that there\nis any manipulating ln the present\nmovement, but one of the best informed authorities In the United States\ndeclares that to some extent speculation is responsible for the rise, adding\nthat the status of the silver market for\nthe immediate future will depend largely\non the tactics of the American Smelting and Refining company.
