It was on -the examination\nof Samuel Wingate, by the defense, he\nhaving been passed by the state last\nweek. After the confession of Orchard-\nhe said he came to a conclusion, but.\nnot a. conclusion as to the guilt or innocence of the accused, nor as to the\nguilt oi innocence of Harry Orchard.\nThe juror said he could not sit on the\ntrial of Harry Orchard and render a\nfair and impartial verdict,\n\"How would the opinion affect you\nas a juror?\"\n\"I would be prejudiced against that\nwitness.\"\n\"You know you don'\nlieve all a witness says\nardaon.\n\"No; I thought I had to belie]\nthey say,\" was the reply. \"Well, I\ncould not believe Orchard under oath,\"\nexclaimed the juror.\nRichardson explained that it was not.\nnecessary for the jury to believe all\nany witness said. He said he merely\nhad to follow the rules laid down by the\ncourt.\nThe juror thought he could follow the\nrules laid down by the court providing\nthe court did not order him to believe\ntbat one witness.

He said that Henry staled to him\nthat if Moyer, Haywood and Pe\".tibone\nbad not been mixed up in the murder\nof Steunenberg they would never have\nbeen arrested.   On examination by Borah Lovelace said he came here directly\nfrom Chicago.   He said that he first\nbecame acquainted with Henry in April.\nLovelace said he commenced the conversation with Henry. He talked about\nsocialism.\ng   \"Are you a socialist?\" asked Borah.\n'    \"Yes.\"\n.   \"You began the conversation?\"\nL    \"Yes; * I talked about labor troubles\nand told him 1 did not believe the West-\nfern Federation of Miners had any 'ln-\n| ner Circle\" and did not believe the members were responsible for any murders.\nThen  he spoke about the Homestead\ntroubles.

He\nadmitted Workman was employed to\nlearn all he could about the jurors.\nHe had reported to Workman .the previous day. He said he was in the court\nroom for the purpose of hearing the\nanswers of various jurors to questions.\nHenry was again examined by Borah\nas follows:\n\"Mr. Henry, you have heard Mr.\nLovelace's statement, what do you say\nabout it?\"\nregarding the Homestead strike, I\nmerely told him of what one of the\nstrikers at Pittsburg told me he had\ndone there.\" He said Lovelace brought\nup the conversation, that he had no recollection of telling Lovelace that the\ndefendants must be connected* with the\nSteunenberg murder or they would not\nbe under arrest.\"\n. In. answer to Darrow's question,\n\"whatj do you mean by 'radical' ?\" the\njuror replied, \"When a man says he can\nget out and kill off half of a town in\nhalf a day, I would call that a radical\nstatement. Debs, I call radical.\n(Laughter throughout the court room.)\nIn answer to a direct answer by Darrow, Henry admitted that he did -say\nsomething to Lovelace to the effect that\nthe defendants must have been mixed\nup in the crime in some way or they\nwould not have been arrested.\n\"I think that's all,\" replied Darrow.\n\"The court will allow the challenge,\"\n|said judge Wood.   Henry was excused.\nWilliam Godall, a coal dealer was accepted to take Henry's place and that\nfilled the box.

Further that what concerns any\nindividual member of the organization\nis the concern of all, whether they live\nin Port Arthur, Nelson or any other\nplace.\"\nThe deputation in conclusion expressed the hope that in future more care\nwould be taken io ascertain the real\nI facts of any case which might arise,\nbefore publication and so avoid poisoning the mind of the public against organized labor.\nINDIAN SCHOOLS -IN WEST\nToronto, May 15\u2014 The question of\ncarrying on Indian schools in the west,\nwhich has been a matter of conference\nbetween representatives of the Anglican, Methodist and Presbyterian*,\nchurches, was considered by the foreign-\nmission of the latter body today.

He was at once placed under\nobservation. When he noticed that he\nwas being shadowed he became panic\nstricken and sought the authorities;\nthen broke down and voluntarily made\nhis confession after which he begged\nfor protection.\nAll the threads of this conspiracy,\n[which is radically different from former attempts of this nature, are not yet\nin the hands of the secret -service men.\nA few underlings have been apprehended, but the real instigators of the\ncrime and the men who furnished the\nblood money have not yet been identi-\nfid. It is thought that the money used\nis part of the proceeds of several political robberies committed during last\nfall and winter. -Many of the participants in these so called expropriations\nhave been arrested and executed, but\nthe loot was never located. The police\nofficials maintain a mysterious silence\nwhen questioned regarding this conspiracy. They refuse either to affirm or\ndeny the story and limit themselves to\nstating that there are indications that\nthe men arrested last week in this city\nwere connected with this conspiracy.\nThis statement coincides with information obtained in revolutionary circles,\nwhere it is declared that the men apprehended last week were occupied\nwith the reorganization of the fighting\nbands of the revolutionists which the\npolice succeeded last year in -breaking\nup, and that the authors of the present\nconspiracy must be sought outside of\nSt. Petersburg.\nRUEF PLEADED GUILTY\nFRISCO'S   ERSTWHILB   DICTATOR\nASTONISHES COURT\nHIS STORY MADE EVEN VETERAN\nREPORTERS WEEP\nDROP IN S. 0. DIVIDENDS\nNew York. May 15\u2014The directors of\nthe Standard Oil company today declared a quarterly dividend of $9 per\nshare. This compares with a dividend\nof $16 declared three months ago.\nSan Francisco, May 15 \u2014 Abraham\nRuef, the acknowledged advisor of\nmayor Schmi-lz and the recognized dictator of municipal affairs in San Francisco, pleaded guilty today to the charge\nof extortion in judge Dunne's department of the superior court.\nSentence will be pronounced on bim\ntwO weeks hence.\nAfter a conference with his four attorneys in judge Dunne's private chambers this afternoon and after they had\nwithdrawn from his case because of his\nresolve to change his plea and avoid\ntrial,-Ruef, to the utter astonishment\nof the prosecution, arose in court and\nannounced; in.a dramatic address, that\nafter long and earnest consideration he\nhad determined to withdraw his plea of\nnot guilty and enter a plea of guilty,\nHe then asked that the jury be dismissed and the trial abandoned.\nRuef read his statement from a manuscript which he had prepared in the\npresence of his attorneys a few minutes\nbefore judge Dunne's court opened.\nHe showed by his voice by his expression, by his gestureless attitude,\nand by the tears that again and again\nflowed down his cheeks, the great emotion and utter humiliation that he suffered. The pathos of the scene communicated itself to the crowd that thronged the court room. Tears sprang to the\neyes of veteran reporters, who have\nbeen Ruef s life long acquaintances and\n\u25a0whose papers have conducted, against\nhim and his political associates, a long\nand bitter campaign for the purification of municipal affairs. Ruef was\nseveral times all but overcome by emotion. When he reached the final words\nof his address. \"I desire to withdraw\nmy plea of not guilty, and enter the\ncontrary plea,\" his voice sank to a\nwhisper. But so tense was the silence\n\u2022that it was heard in every corner of the\nroom. Though- Ruef has formally declared himself to be guilty of the charge\non which he was brought to be tried,\nhe nevertheless proclaimed his innocence. He confesses that he is guilty\ni of having connived at corruption in municipal affairs, but he denies, with all\nthe emphasis a man in .his unhappy po\nj sit loo can command, that he is not\nguilty of the crime of extortion charged against him. He declares that his\nsole motive in accusing himself in open\ncourt was to save the lives of those\nwho are nearest and dearest to him,\nhis aged father and mother, his maiden\nsister and a niece.\nIn the -course of a long conversation\nthis afternoon with a representative of\nthe Associated Press in the house at\n2849 Filmore street, which for the last\nmonth or more has been his prison,\nRuef said:\n\"I shall not mislead anyone. Never,\nnever in the wide world could I have\nbeen convicted on this charge. No one\nknows as well as myseHL Then why,\none may ask, did J plead guilty? i\npleaded guilty to save the lives of those\nwho are nearest and dearest to me on\nearth.\"\nRuef 3 eyes filled with tears when he\nsaid this. He turned and gazed out of\n\u2022the window. When he had master d\nhimself, he went on.\n\"Last night I gathered my family\nabout me in this prison house of mine\nand prepared them for the act I had\ndetermined upon. That would mean one\nday of uneasiness, one day of sorrow.\nTo go on would have meant months of\nagony and death. I do not know what\nmy sentence will be. For myself I do\nnot greatly care. I say that no man\npossesses physical nerve more than 1\ndo. I could face a crowd of 5000 or 10,-\n000 men, every one with a rope in his\nhand and calling for my life. I could\nface them calmly and meet my end\nwithout flinching; but the suffering of I\nthose I love I could, endure no longer.\n\"I believe that with my presonality,\nleaving out of the question the feelings\nof those who love me and have stood\n\u25a0by me, I could spend five years in San\nQuentin prison almost as comfortably\nas in an hotel or at a summer resort.\nBut if the step I took this morning had\nmeant five or fourteen years, the fear\nof that would not have deterred me.\n\"I have made no confession. I know\nmuch; some things I shall tell, some\nthings I shall not. Wherever an innocent man has been forced info corruption against his will, that man* I shall\nprotect. Wherever! a man, be he high\nor low, has entered into corruption with,\nhis eyes open, that man I shall expose.\n\"I shall not say at the present time\nthat mayor Schmitz is guilty of the\ncharges that have been brought against\nhim, or that he is innocent.. I will say\nthis, that I wanted to break away from\nSchmitz before the election a year* ago\nlast November, and said to him': 'I am\nsick of the whole thing and I want to\nget out. I cannot stand for all these\nunion bums you have gathered around\nyou and will appoint. They would eat\nthe paint off a house.'\n\"In answer the mayor begged me to\nstay with him, and put up tho argument\nthat these fellows must be allowed' their\nshare or we could never hold the machine together; There was too much\nStruth in that; i stayed* with \u2022 Schmitz\nand I stayed with the machine that I\nat great labor and pains had built up\nand assembled. I found then that I had\ntaken a step away from the high and\nclean ideals with whloh I originally entered -the political field. I found, in\nshort, that to hold the machine together\nI had to permit and connive at corruption. In the state of affairs existing\nit was necessary. But I, myself, never'\nasked a dollar from a man, never took\na dishonest dollar from the public.\nThe things that 1 did were things that\nhurt no one.\"\nSTRIKE OF\nPLUMBERS\nToronto Faces Complete\nTie-Up of All the Building Trades.\nHEAVY STORMS IN THE SOUTH\nMemphis, Tenn., May 16.\u2014Reports\nreceived today from west Tennessee,\nnorthern Alabama and -Mississippi indicate that the worst rain storm of\nrecent years.fell yesterday throughout\nthis section,'amounting in some places\nto a waterspout, and accompanied by\nhigh winds.

One\ngentleman, who went throegh to Vlc-\n| joria. expressed the opinion that he\nwould Just as soon live in Nelson as in\nj Victoria and for seme reasons would\nhave preferred tbe interior town to the\n.oisi to.'.a. Bu; hiving been taken\nrhtouuh to Victoria, he bad Invested\nthere and would, (or a time at least,\nfcave to live there.  He thought if some\nsystematic effort were made to induce\npeople from Manitoba, seeking homes\nin this province, to adopt the Crow's\nNest route, a far greater percentage\nwould finally locate In the Kootenay\ncountry than is the case at present. It\nwas pointed out to this genteman that\nthe solution ot this question rests largely with the C.P.R. If the big railroad\ncompany would assist In the matter of\ndiverting traffic this way, Nelson would\ngladly do Its part, but without the active co-operation of the railway company, it was well nigh impossible for\nNelson to undertake the heavy expense\nof adequately advertising in the east the\nadvantages to intending settlers of visiting the Kootenay districts before going to the coast.\nIt appears that the C.P.R. is not anxious to divert traffic over the Crow's\nNest branch from ih\u00bb ma n line and consequently little or no effort Is made to\nacquaint travellers with the advantages\nof the former route.\nThe wide circulation of well prepared\nfolders, placed for distribution at all\neastern ticket offices and leading hotels\nwould serve \"a useful purpose.

The detaile<i, report of the com-'\nmission giving full and reliable details\nas to the whole cost of the completed\ncanal, the location and character of the\nstructural works required, the Water\npowers available, etc., is now in course\nof preparation and will be presented to\nparliament next session.\nFor the first time the country will\nthen have reliable and adequate information as to the cost and feasibility of\nthis great project which has been before the public for half a century\nThe engineers of the commission have\nnot compiled the final estimate as to\nthe whole cost of the canal but from\nthe information now available it ls -safe\nto say that the total expenditure required for a continuous and fully navigable waterway with a minimum depth\nof) 21 feet from Georgian bay to tidewater will be close to $100,000,000. The\nreport, when presented will also show\nthat from an engineering standpoint,\nthe enterprise is entirely feasible With\nno very great engineering difficulties\nto surmount. The only question for\nparliament to consider will be whether\nthe benefits which will accrue to the\ndominion through the construction of\na waterway, making Fort William an\nocean part and shortening the present\n\u2022distance by water from Fort William\nto Montreal by over 400 miles will justify an expenditure larger by $15,000,-\n000 than has been spent on the great\nlakes and St. Lawrence waterways system. The engineers have been able to\nsolve the chief engineering problem of\nthe canal, namely the question of maintaining a sufficient water supply across\nthe height of land between lake Nipis-\nslng and Trout lake; it has been found\npracticable by conserving the flood waters of the Ottawa river to maintain\na continuous and adequate supply\nof water during the whole season of navigation without having to excavate\nfrom Trout lake to the level of lake\nNipissing, which would have involved\nthe expenditure of a vast sum.\n| One of the most interesting features\nof the report will be the statement (that\nit will be easily possible at a moderate\nexpenditure to considerably reduce, the\nflood level of the Ottawa river and increase the low water level by a series\nof dams and control of tributary waters.\n\u2022This would result In increasing wonderfully the value of the water powers now\navailable, would prove of great benefit\nto the lumber industries of the Ottawa\nvalley and would also serve to materially raise the low water level In Montreal harbor. It is estimated that with\nthe completion of the canal there would\n'be 500,000 horsepower available along\nits course, almost as much as is available at Niagara. With so much cheap\npower available and with its great resources of iron ores and timber the Ottawa valley would doubtless become one\nof the greatest manufacturing centers\nof the continent.\nReferring to the early construction\nof the canal sir Wilfrid Laurier recently said that if he had the money to do\nso he would hegin work tomorrow.\nWATCHES\nfor Railroad Men\nWe carry standard grades and give eas>\\\nterms.

O\nTo Architects\nThe school board Of Nelson Is calling\nfor competitive plans for a new school\nbuilding to contain 11 class rooms, pencil\ndrawings to be in by noon, May 27. Architects desiring to compete can obtain blue\nprint-J and rules of competition from E.\nC. Arthur, secretary of the \u00abu*i*ool board.\nNelson.\nYesterday's press dispatch stating\nthat the seditious movement amongst\nthe\" Hindus in Madras province, India,\nwas spreading very rapidly, is but another link in the long chain of cable\nadvices received during the last month\nindicating the approach of a serious\ncrisis in Britain's most populous dependency. It can no longer be doubted\nthat events in. India are assuming an\naspect which the most unsensational\nminds in the public and the press\nthroughout the empire recognize to be:\ngrave. A correspondent of a coast paper, who interviewed several natives\nof India in Oakland, Cal., elicited some\nvery startling statements, the value of\nwhich must, of course, be struck with\na dug regard for the fervid language\nof the East Indian,\n\"In two years'- time we will drive\nthe English out of India,\" said the\nHindu spokesman. \"We will not be\nalone in the undertaking. There\" is\nnow a thorough understanding among\nthe great mass of people from Japan\nin the east to Turkey in Europe. Our\nslogan will be 'India for the Indians\nand' Asia for the Asiatics.' Wfe realize\nthat it is pot the power of a few thousand British soldiers th$t is keeping\nthe great population of India in subjection, It is our own ignorance of\nour power and the bitter caste prejudices that have kept us divided through\n\u25a0 all the centuries.' Through education\nwe have learned the trick whereby\nEngland conquered us and kept us in\nsubjection, fighting her battle for commercial expansion, and it will be by\neducation that we will emancipate ourselves. It is true that we shall -have\nto use force, for we know, that England\nWill not surrender the richest possession\non the face of the earth without drawing to. the limit on her vast resources.\nYes, we are coming to this country\nand Canada for certain specific purposes, but we meet with scant cordiality in any, of the British possessions.\nWe are npt permitted to laud In Australia or New' Zealand, and Canada\nonly tolerates us on account of the\nhead tax on the Chinese, it is true\nthat We are not- well received in the.\nUnited States, and we understand; the\nreason why.\n\"We are about in the same position\nthat the people of this country were\nlu prior to the great American revolution, when you thrashed tho British out\nof America, Yes, thanks to the. spread\nof education, we are aware of those\nfacts. You cannot blame us if we come\nh,ere te study conditions and acquire\nknowledge from your people with a\nview of doing in the near future what\nyou have admirably succeeded- la doing\nin the past. We dq not doubt our\nability to succeed in our task. We\nhave hundreds of thousands of Hindus\nwho have passed through the ranks of\nthe British army in India. We have\nthousands now serving. Then, when\nthe time comes, the connecting links\nof sympathy will manifest their importance. Japan, China (with its hundreds of millions)T Burmah, Afghanistan, Balloochlstftn,: Persia, Egypt,\nTurkey\u2014all will be there to see fair\nplay.\n\"Russia is broken, no power at home\nor abroad, and England will follow\n[suit when the hundreds oi millions now\nin abject slavery in India rise in their\nmight and direct them tp the seaports\nof Bombay and Calcutta, where ,'ttiey\nmay take transport to tbe land of their\nbirth. Yes, in two years' time the\nBritish will be driven out,\"\n\u25a0 Another Indian whom the interviewer\npointed to the result of the mutiny in\n1887, to the improvements made in\nweapons of warfare since then, and to\nthe Suez canal, said;\n\"We have certainly studied all the\npoints indicated. We have also studied\ncauses. The British did not suppress\nthe mutiny. . We suppressed1 it ourselves through caste prejudice. Prior\ntp the mutiny the terriiorial system pf\nenlistment was in operation; that is,\nthe several regiments were enlisted-\nfr-om the districts, and as a consequence\nthere was a solidarity among the regiments resulting in the mutiny, After\nthe restoration of peace reorganization\nwas effected and the British diplomats,\nwith a view to preventing a recurrence\nof a mutiny, organized regiments with\na certain number of companies of Hindus and Mussel mans, and in the Pun-\njau'b they Introduced,' the Pathan or Afghan. In this mere caste prejijdjpe\nwas the factor in maintaining discipline. It has worked* well. In the Suez\ncanal we have nothing to fear. The\ncanal can be put out of business in a I\nfew minutes, and Egypt is with us, We\nI fully, realize that there are dark \u25a0 times\nahead, and we are prepared to meet\nalj exigencies. We are well aware of the\ngeneral unrest manifested in all European countries and- we know the\n| cause. Our bitter experiences for the\npast two years cannot be easily effaced.\nWe shall, therefore, move majestically\nforward, keeping our objective in view.\n'India for the Indians.' Here we will\ndraw the line, proceed in our own\nprovince. The fortifications of Lahore\nment of greater knowledge. Allah will\nbe with us. Jandi Ka-wechi Kasani\nKiah. Under the flag we have taken\nthe oath.\"\nEverything seems tp point to the imminence of a native outbreak near bail ore, and the authorities are taking all\nthe steps possible tp suppress it by force\npf arms. The political unrest is hourly assuming a graver appearance. Bands\nof stalwarts armed with bludgeons, who\n, have been enlisted by the leaders of\nthe sedition, are crowding into the native oily, and troops of all arms and\nbodies of police, mounted and dismounted, are being drafted- into the\ncity of Lahore from all parts of the\nprovince. The fortifications of Lahoer\nhave been subjected to a special inspection. * and the artillerymen have\nbeen reinforced.\nThe origin of the unrest is to be\nj found in tbe agitation for self government conducted by the Punjabi, a native journal.   Some\/ime ago the pro\nprietbf and -*<!u^r were sentence.-} to.\ntwo years and six months respectively\n1 in -prison for inventing statement's to\nshow that in murder' cases the British\ngovernment refused justice to natives\nas against Europeans.' On an appeal to\nthe revising court tlie two years' sentence was reduced to six months.. Whet,\nthe prisoners were being taken to jai)\nthe military escort was pelted by a moo\nanl isolated. Europeans were assaulted\non the Mail. The serious feature of\nthe whole affair Is that the Punjab is\nfull of first rate fighting paen. The\nSikhs are the most warlike race in*\nIndia, and while they have not in\ngreat nitobers taken part in the, rioting, they have not ranged themselves,\non the side of the government or\n-spoken out against the lawless nets of:\nthe Hindus of other races.\nShould an organized rising take place\nits flrst objective would he tbe capture\nof the great Lahore prison , and the\nfreeing of its 8,<KK> prisoners. The city\nis one of the most historic spots in all\nHindustan. It has a population of close\nupon) 160,000, the Mohammedans being\na very considerable element. It was\na walled city before the annexation of\nthe Punjab in 1849, but shortly, afterwards the ditch was filled in and the\nwalls cut down very materially for\nsanitary reasons. The fort, formerly\nthe stronghold of Ranjlt Singh, is still\nheld by a small garrison .but the bulk\nof the troops are stationed at the Mian\nMir cantonment, some five miles .southeast of Lahore,\nThe capital of the Punjab is 1,27?\nmiles from Calcutta and 1,230 miles\nfrom Bombay. It has excellent railway connections, and troops can fo'\"-\nrushed to the city from both the east\nand west coasts of India.\nWOMAN'S AUXILIARY.\nFirst Bay of Annual Meeting of Kootenay Diocesan Branch.\nThe first annual meeting of the Kootenay diocesan,branch of -tho Woman's\nAuxiliary was opened yesterday morning 'by a special communion service in\n\u25a0St.. Saviour's church, including an able\nsermon preached by Ven. Archdeacon\nBeer of Kaslo.\n' *In the afternoon In the parish hall\nRev, F. H. Graham opened the business\nmeeting with the W. A. Utaay.\nThe honorary president, -Mrs. Beer,\nwas regretably absent, and letters were\nread from the lord bishop and the\nclergy of the parochial branches, regretting their inability to be present.\nThe delegates from Kaslo were Mrs.\nW. J. Holmes and .Mrs. James Anderson.\nThe president, Mrs. F. A. Starkey,\ntook the chair and gave a most excellent address, which will be reported\nat length to the various branches or\ntheir representatives.\nThe reports of the secretaries were\nread and adopted. The report of the\n'Nelson branch was read hy Mrs. Coul-\ndery, of the Kaslo branch by Mrs,\nHolmes, of the Kelowna branch 'by\nMrs. Hodge, and of the Armstrong\nbranch by Mrs. Miltonberger.\nIt was proposed to proceed with the\nelection of officers for the ensuing year,\nand tfee motion -carried, the meeting\nbeing fully representative. Only two\nnew officers were elected, Mrs. ,-R. M.\nBird aa treasurer and Mrs, Couldery as\nDorcas secretary in piace of Mrs. 6. S.\nFowler, who retired.

Mr. Ferguson has been all over Al-\nberta recently and in the Okanagan\ncountry, trying to get a number pf\nhorses to supply the growing demand\nin and ground Nelson, but he was unable tp secure heavy enough animals\nand has -been forced- to go to1 Ontario\nfor the class of horses wanted,\n8y the time Mr, Ferguson reaches Ontario most of the horses will have been\ncollected and he will pick out about\n30 of tbe best and shi-p them direct to\nthis city. He expects to get here again\nin about three weeks' time. The Ontario horses chosen will run firqm1 1,4$)\nto l',600 pounds,; aind wjl-1 be 'suiti&Rl^\nfor logging -pamps, faming, dray-lug\nand. general purposes. There is a\ngrowing demand for draught horses in\nthis neighborhood, and (Mr, Ferguson\nexpects this first consignment to be\ngrabbed up, once they get here.\nU. S. IMPORTS OF MEXICAN ZINC.\nSince the effectiveness of the ruling\nmaking certain foreign zinc ores non-\ndutiable, there is reported to have been\na marked increase of Mexican importations hy United States buyers, says\nthe Denver Mining Review, who are\noffering higher prices than formerly.\nEvidence of this is shown by the recent\nsuspension of operations at several\nMexican -calcining plants, which were'\nunable to meet the competitive ore\nprices of the .American zinc purchasers,\niThe considerable tonnage of Mexican\nores previously shipped tp Eurppe has\nalso greatly decreased'.\nQOEAST\nTHE ORIENTAL\nLimited\nFqr Elegance and Somfart\nTrain leaves Nelson 8.00 a,m. every day\nconnects at Spokane with trains:\neast an,d west arriving at\nSeattle, 7 a.m. na-ext morning.

All the energies of the Spanish\ninvaders were devoted to the search\nfor\" silver, which was more easily found\nand reduced to bullion. Some 'idea of\nthe disparity in the production of the\ntwo metals during the Spanish occupancy may be gained from the coinage\nstatistics of the various Mexican mints.\n\u25a0From 1537, when the flrst money was\nissued, to 1821, the coinage of silver\n| amounted to $2,081,217,785,095, while\nthat of gold only amounted to $68,874,-\n968 . Since 1821 the coinage of silver\nhas been increased to $3,563,178,979.34\nand that of gold to $131,573,256. These\namounts do not include the coinage\nbetween March 31, 1*905, and March 31,\n1907, which will increase\" the- totals\nvery materially. The ratio of increase\nin the production of the two metals\nsince 1821} is largely in favor of gold,\nof which was produced in the period\nas much as was produced in the previous 300 years, while of silver but\nlittle more than half as much. The\ngreater portion of this increased production of gold was made in very recent years.\nHow foolish this neglect of the yellow metal -was by the older prospectors\nis being demonstrated at the present\nday, when gold mines far exceed ng\nIn Value any of the 'Spanish antlgua\nsilver mines are being discovered and\ndeveloped. Expert mining men have\nsaid that the time is not far distant\nwhen Mexico will be the first in the\nproduction of gold as she is today flrst\nIn the production of silver. Her deposits\nof gold are the wonder of all- who are\nmailing scientific exploratons of our\nmineral resources. The marvel grows\neach year that it has reserved for the\n20th century operators to open up these\nlong hidden storehouses of the yellow\nmetal:\nThe richest and largest deposits of\ngold thus far found lie in that region\nof Mexico where the three states of\nChihuahua, Sonora and Sinaloa meeti\nIn the mountain fastnesses of the Surra\n\u25a0Madre, on the western slope, are be ng\nworked today several gold mines of\nfabulous1 richness that have been discovered within ten years.\nThis section has long been famous\nfor its great silver mines and its gold\nplacer workings. This district of Alamos, in the state of Sonora, border ng\non Sinaloa and Chihuahua, has been a;\ngreat producer of gold for generations,\nprincipally in placer, though much\ngold in recent years has been found\nin its copper ores, which are found In\ngreat abundance and richness. It has\nj been discovered that as greater depth\nis being attained, the gold values of\nthese copper ores rapidly increase,\nwhich has led many of the ablest mining experts to make ihe prediction tiat\nmany of the copper deposits ii> -this\nsection would turn into gold mines entirely at great depths.\nThe district of Alamos, like all rich'\nmining sections in Mexico, has its conditions of great gold and silver mines\nabandoned by the ancient workers because of Indian wars, revolutions, the\ninvasion of water and suffocation with\nfoul air, which, for lack) of -modern\nmining machinery and scientific equipment and handling, the owners could\nnot prevent. Many of these abandoned\nantiguas are being reclaimed and profitably worked with up to date min ng\nappliances, under the management of\nskilled mining engineers.\nThe northeastern section of the state\nof Sinaloa has long been famous for\nits gold deposits. The placer, deposits\nalong the rivers Choix and Fuerte have\nyielded vast .amounts of gold in the past\nand are attracting the attention ofi\nAmerican capitalists at the present\ntime. I n this section of Sinaloa is\nfound the celebrated Guadaloupe de los\nReyes mine, which since 1800 has\nproduced $85,000,000 and still yields ore\naveraging $100 per ton. For years this\nmine was the source of many quarrels\nand numbeVles -bloody fights between\ntwo families who claimed its ownership. The noted Vega family * longj\nheld possession, their great wealth and\npolitical power ennabling them to control not only this very rich mine, but\nthe whole state of Sinaloa.\nNot far away, in the neighborhood\nof Cosala, lie the celebrated Golconda |\ngold mine and the Saragossa silver\nmine, which is famous for its beautiful\nspecimens of virgin silver, ore very\nmuch like the rich specimens found in\nthe Nipissing mines, in the Cobalt region of Canada. Another famous old\nmine near Cosala is the Estaca, -that\nwas once extremely rich. Tradit on I\nsays that its owners were so rich and\nrealized such fortunes from its possession that they ued to lay down silver bricks for their ladies to walk upon\non their .way to church, which were\nthen taken up again by their servants,\na piece of extravagant gallantry evidencing as well the possession of un- j\nlimited wealth. Another celebrated\nmine, the San Jose de Gracia, which j\nhas produced many millions,- is also\nlocated in- this region. Many more\nmines of - extreme richness that were\nonce great producers are to be found\nfin this .interesting mountainous region\nnow lying idle and waiting for capital.!\nscientific equipment and skilled management to put them Into operat on\nagain, tb make them yield ten fold\ngreater than ever before.\nRich as are the gold and silver mines,\nquartz and placer, of Sonora and- Slna- j\nloa. their production cannot rival those j\nof Chihuahua in this section.   In this\nzoO is iooated the famous.Batopilas\nmine, from which o'-% $160,000,060 has\nbeen* taken. TbiS mine is controlled\nby the Shepherd esiate. Many millions\nhave been spent in opening up the\nmine;., tunnels- thousands of feet in\nlength have been constructed, and\ngreat prosperity is assured this ancient\nproperty for many years to come.\nThe.iluvia de Oro, probably the\nrichest gold mine on the -continent, was\nfound in this corner of Chihuahua less\nthan five years ago. The richness and\nquantity of its ores is \u2022something marvelous. Ore running as high as $30,000\nper ton has been taken out. On one\noccasion $60,000 worth was dug out in\nless than two hours. But little has\nbeen said about this great discovery,\nas no stock has ever been offered for\nsale and probaTily never will he. The\ncompany owning it is a close corporation \"and made up of a very few St.\nI Louis and New York capitalists, among,\nthem B. F. Yoakum, the well known\nraiiroad man .chairman of the Rock\n[island railroad system, and H. E. Carey,\nto whose energy and ex-pert mining- <i '-\nganization is largely due the discovery\nand successful operation of this great\nproperty.\nI The discovery of the Lluvia de Oro-\nwill compel a new statement -concerning the deposits of precious metals in\nMexico. The golden age has been\nushered in and some day silver will\nhave taken second place in Mexico.\n(Forty miles south of the Lluvia de\nOro lies the Cal abaci 11 as mine, another\ngold property, discovered about six\nyears ago, which bids fair to rival the\nLluvia de Oro. The mine is of great\n.extent in the width and. length) of its\nore deposits and is very high in value,\noften above $500 per ton*. One ore\nchute now being worked miners of that\nsection believe will produce millions.\nThe same people who managed the\nLluvia de Oro are also developing this\nproperty. They have gone about their\nwork very quietly, such a thing as publicity for speculative purposes being\nabsolutely wanting. No shares of, this\nmine have been offered for sale. The\nmine has produced over $500,000 in\nthe -course.of- the' development work\nalone. The ore, like that of the Lluvia\nde Oro, is a cyaniding proposition, and\na cyaniding plant of the most scientific\ncharacter Is being successfully operated.\nThis region is of a most beautiful\ncharacter, the scenery of the grandest\ndescription, the climate perfect, temperate the year round, no extremes of\nAlaskan cold and equatorial heat; ample water and fuel, a spot where work\ngoes on every day. Railroads are\nrapidly pushing their way into this\nlong neglected region, and some day\nthere will he a great rush here wlhen\nthe world wakes up to a knowledge of\nits marvelous mineral wealth. A few\nAmerican capitalists have, as will be\nseen, already pre-empted some of its\nrichest deposits, thus identifying themselves with the development of the\nregion, \u2022\u25a0\u00bb?\u00a3?\u00a5\nAuction Sale\n\"or\nHOUSEHOLD FuENITuRE\nAT 2 P.

RUSSIAN EVILS.\nBY  DEPRIVING  GOVERNMENT OF\nREVENUE FROM THIS SOURCE.\nThe New York Independent points\nout that the vulnerable point of the\nRussian government is its finance, and\nproceeds to show how the revolutionaries may quickly obtain their end by\nquite peaceful and entirely praiseworthy\nmeans.\nWith a heavy war debt to pay, with\na constant drain upon the treasury for\nmaintaining the semblance of order\nand ferreting out nests of revolutionists, with a large part of the country\ndevastated by famine, and with commerce and manufacture crippled 'by\nstrikes and hard times, the Russian\ngovernment would be practically bankrupt if it were not for one branch of\nthe revenue which has brought in increasing instead of decreasing returns\n\u2014that is, the tax on alcoholic spirits.\nMarie Antoinette showed a psychological insight for which she has never\nreceived credit when she asked* of -those\nwho told her that the peasants had no\nbread, \"Why don't they eat cake, then?''\nThat is just what the Russian people\nare doing now. Deprived of the necessities of life, they have taken to its\nluxuries. Thrown out of work, they\ndevote themselves to play. Travelers\ntell us that the capital was never more\ngay. The higher classes are lavish* in\nexpending money on balls, theaters\nand dinners, and the lower classes are\nimitating them so far as their means\npermit or farther, by indulging more\nthan ever in gambling and .drink. From\nthe latter habit the government reaps\na double harvest, the internal revenue\ntax upon liquor, and the retailer's profit,\nfor Count Witte, the Tillman of Russia,\nmade the sale of vodka a government\nmonopoly. In 1906 the vodka shops\nyielded a net profit of i5284.219.000, and j\nthe minister of finance, in presenting\nthe budget -to the douma, ' estimated\nthat this year the revenue from that\nsource wuold be $362,500,000. To this\nmust be added the revenue, from the\ntax on spirits, which in 1906 was $15,-\n407-,000. Tobacco can also be classed\nwith vodka as a similar and not indispensable luxury. The tax on this\nproduced $24,339,000 in 1906. Altogether\nthis makes nearly a third of the total\nordinary revenue of the Russian government, which in the same year was\n$1,013,929,000, The first douma broke\nwith the government because it demanded that the crown domains be\ngiven to the public, yet the revenue\nfrom the lands and forests of the state\nwas onl y$38,392.000, less than a tenth\nof that derived from the liquor traffic.\nEvidently, then, the Russian people\nhave in their own hands a more powerful weapon than assassination,\nstrikes or mutiny. In a perfectly\npeaceful manner they can, if they will,\nthrow the government into bankruptcy\nand force it to grant their terms. When\nthe czar dissolved the douma most of\nthe members went to Viborg and called\nupon the peasants to revenge them by\nrefusing to pay taxes. By this act\nJ they put themselves in a revolutionary\nattitude and ruined their political careers and risked their lives and fortunes, because it gave the government\nan excuse to prosecute them in the\ncourts and cut thm off from the second\ndouma. By this act they accomplished\nnothing, for the peasants do not pay\nany direct taxes to amount to anything.\nIf instead of their jeu de paume oath\n.they had signed the temperance pledge\nand called upon the peasants to. do\nlikewise, they might have accomplished\nsomething. \u2022 It is claimed that nine-\ntenths ox some such fraction of the\npeasants are, in favor of the revolution.\nIf so they ought to be willing to drink\nwater for a while for the good of the\ncause.   It would also cool their blood.\n'Probably If would not be necessary\nJ for them to abstain for more than a\nmonth or two. A week to show their\npower, as they did in the strikes of last\nyear, might be sufficient, for the mere\nthreat of depriving the revenue of\nsomething like $400,000,000 would produce a greater effect upon foreign bondholders than the pleadings of revolutionist emissaries and the resolutions\njOf American mass meetings. Let Uje\nterrorists organize Bands of Hope and\nlodges of Good Templars instead of\nbunds and conspiracies.. Let them import and circulate temperance tracts\ninstead of anarchistic'literature. Let\nthem manufacture ginger ale and soda\npop instead of bombs. So long as the\npeasants and workingmen of Russia refuse to boycott the vodka shop, which\nis their worst enemy, both nationally\nand individually, tbey will ' not gain\nthe sympathy to which the righteousness of their cause entitles them.\nGOOD WORDS FOR CHAMBERLAIN'S\nCOUGH REMEDY\nPeople everywhere take pleasure in testifying to the good qualities of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy.

Reliable cruisers, who have covered ,the\nground, estimate the merchantable timber at not less than 700,000.000 feet.\nWhile all this timber will not be manufactured at Trout Lake, the logging operations have to be carried on\/'which\n[will bring grist to the mill of the Trout\nLake business man. A large portion\nwill, however, be manufactured at Trout\nLake City by a company who will begin as soon as the snow is off the\nground to erect an up to date plant.\nThe mineral resources are now being\ndeveloped in a systematic manner. The\nSilver Cup has proven to be a mine of\nexceeding richness. As depth is attained, the ore shoots are proving to be permanent and of equal value to 'the surface showings. The lowest level of\nthe mine is now nearly 800 feet, vertical\ndepth, from the surface at which point\nthe ore body shows strong and gives\nevery indication of continuace.\nBroadview development ares proving up large bodies of ore.which will\ngive employment to hundreds of men\nin the near future. This company intends to put in their own reduction\nworks at some point on Trout lake\nwhich will add materially to the prosperity of the district.\nWe are informed that a Spokane company will during the summer harness\nup the immense water power of the\nLardeau river and supply electric power\nto the whole surrounding country, on\npractically the same lines as the West\nKootenay Power and Light Co.\n1 Another industry, which as yet is\nonly in its infancy, but which has great\npossibilities, is the ranching, market-\ngardening and small fruits. The valley between Trout Lake and Beaton is\nfertile and rich and will add- thousands\nof dollars arinually to the wealth of\nthe district.\nAs a summer resort and for tourist\ntravel the Lardeau presents an ever\nchanging scene of beauty. ,\nIn the valleys and foothills are found\nlakes and streams abundantly supplied\nwith all kinds of fish, while higher up\nin the peaks and glaciers the hunter\ncan delight in getting after the bigger\ngame. Here the tourist can have a climate unsurpassed., No excessive heat,\nno mosquito pests everything that is\nlovely and nothing that is vile.\nCOSMOPOLITE OF WORLD\nTHE JEW AS A RACE IS PASSING\nRAPIDLY AWAY.\nlit tiiimi\nCALL TO *DB PEOPLE SOUNDED BY\nFAMOUS HEBREW ORATOR.\nFRANK OLIVER IN CALGARY\nMinister of the 'Interior Talks* of Irrigation Projects.\nCalgary, May 14.\u2014In an interview today Hon. Frank Oliver stated' that the\ngovernment was taking important steps\nin regard to irrigation in the provinces\nof Alberta and Saskatchewan. At present they were investigating the district\nnorth of Mdicine Hat, Bowen, the Red\nDeer and Bow rivers. On the report of\nengineers to a great extent it would be\ndecided whether the government\nwould enter upon the matter of irrigation or not. He stated further that\nthere are more applications in now for\nirrigation propositions than there are\ndistricts to be irrigated, but at present\nthe government was rather holding off\nthe applications. He stated furl her that\nnew coal regulations had been issued\nthe day before he left Ottawa. The new\nregulations are in line with the announcement by Mr. Oliver some weeks\nago. In future no coal lands will he\nsold, but 21-year leases will be granted.\nWashington, May 15.\u2014<Ra&bi Abram\nSi mo n, j the famous Hebrew orator,\nsounds a bugle call to his people in* a\nwarning that is fraught with profound\ninterest to Jew and Gentile alike the\nwhole world over. He is the pastor\nof the Washington Hebrew congregation, and during his residence inj\nWashington has -firmly established'\nhimself as one of the nation's* leading\n\u2022religious workers, cultured- preachers\nand profound thinkers. With the material aid of several prominent Hebrews\nhe keeps that race fo the foremost in\nevery big liberal movement here and\nin the country. A few words about his\nearly life may be of interest He was\nborn in Nashville, Tenn., and at an\nearly age moved to Cincinnati. Ohio.\nThere he subsequently graduated from\nthe Cincinnati university, and from the\nHebrew Union college, receiving from\nthe former the degree of A. B., and from\n\u2022the latter the enviable title of rabbi.\nHis first charge was in Sacramento,\nCal., where he was for some years! the\nguiding spirit in the Society for \u25a0 the I\nPrevention of Cruelty to Children. {Later he was a pastor for five years in\nOmaha, Neb., and from there he came\nto Washington in February, 10W. , So\nsuccessful has he been as a rabbi thta he j\nhas been re-elected for another term of\nfive years. He is one of the leading\ninstructors at George Washington university; and is highly regarded by all\nclasses of the people. He was married\nin 1896 to Miss Carrie Obendorfer of\nCincinnati in 1896, by whom he has two\nsons',\nv Discussing \"Some Jewish1 Problems\"\nJ and reviewing the persecutions which\nthe Jews have endured for the past\n3,500 years, he says that the \"Jew as\n8 race is. passing: away. The greatest\ndifficulty with which the Jew had to\ncontend for the last 3.5 centuries is that\nof \u25a0 prejudice,. and that because all nations have objected to the Jewish interpretation of the Ruler of the Universe.\nHis history throughout all the ages\nhas shown him to be an intense individualist,, a believer in the unity ot\"\nGod, and in this 'belief he will accept\nno compromise.\n\"It is because of his 'steadfast devotion to the faith of his fathers that he\nhas been made the victim of a prejudice\nunworthy of Christianity, and of manhood and womanhood. The Jew as a\nrace has practically passed away, and\nhe is today the. cosmopolite of the;\nworld. The pure blood of Abraham\ndoes not run in my veins more than\nlo yours. The Jews of today are descended from the two tribes, numbering\n42,000,' who returned after their wanderings in Palestine. How. much purej\nblood is left to their descendants, who\n\u2022for the past 3,500 years have been' put\nto the vilest persecutions?\n'Though it is said! a Jew is known\nby his racial characteristics, his desire\nto acquire money, his determination to\nexact the pound, of felsh and an eye\n-for an eye and a tooth for a tooth, the\nworld is beginning to realize that these\nracial characteristics are rapidly passing away, and that the Jew is of that\ncountry in which he resides, an Ameri-'\ncan, German, Frenchman or Russian.\nThese* nations, however, refuse to accept him because of his belief that God J\nis a -unit. The time has come to think\nof the Jew as a human being, and to\nrealize that all the persecutions to which\nhe has been subjected have done the\nworld no good.\n\"If the descendants of the two tribes]\nwho returned to Palestine are responsible for all the sins laid at their door\nby Russia and' other countries of Eu- j\nrope, what would be the result if the ten j\nlost tribes were resurrected The task\nof the Jew today is not to burden himself with the. troubles of his race, or,\nfollowing the dream of the prophets,\nto return to Palestine, there to found\na nation respected by the world, but\nto make that country in which he lives\nhis nearest and dearest possession.\" \u2022\n'DwiiflK\nThey are the smartest models known to the Corset\nManufacturer's art,science\ntad sense having achieved\na wonderful triumph.\n, Prices range from |i.oo to $6.00.\nWill Improve Your Figure.\n.
