C,   TUESDAY,  JULY  21. 1908\nNO. 75\n,\nFRONTAGE TAX\nTwo Cement Sidewalks Are\nto Be Laid\nRIGHTS OF FREE SPEECH\nSTRONG COMPLAINTS OF NATURE\nOF RECENT STREET PREACHING MADE\u2014TAKING OVER OF\nPOWER PLANT AND APPOINTING OF FOREMAN.\nThere was another lengthy sitting of\nthe city council last night when the question of cement sidewalks' and a frontage\ntax was definitely taken up, the taking\nover of the city power plant was approved and a superintendent of the city plant\nappointed. There was also an Interesting\ndiscussion on the restrictions to be placed, it any, oh free speech. A question\nrelative to the taking over of the tramway was deferred to the next meeting.\nThere were present mayor Taylor, aldermen MpMorrts, Procter, Steed, Patenaude apd Hale.\nRECREATION GROUNDS\nAfter the reading of the minutes the\n. first business taken up waa the acquiring, If'-necessary, of the lots in blocks\n\u25a0 ty, and 60, at the north side of the re*\n'''^S__rn ETOlintl*   A reP~rt of the special\nt'tfWwUtee appointed wtth reference to\nthis Inotter stated the price at which they\n1 -couhi. he acquired but as there ls_other\nbusiness lii connection with these' lots,\nthe closing of the lane and a portion of\nHentlr-Jj street, the committee was. em*\n\/ poweremto make further negotiations.\n1 ;    -U CORRESPONDENCE\nTwo-i%ters were received from R. J\nHowley, representing the Tramway com\npany, thanking the city council for Its\ncourtesy but leaving the matter of the\nsafeguarding of the property of the company on the site of the recent fires in\nthe hands of the city.\nMessrs. McDermid & McHardy complained that the debris left by these fires\n.was hurting the sale of neighboring property. Under the bylaws the city has no\npower to clean up these lots, nor compel the owners to do so except that the\nconditions were dangerous or unhealthy.\nNevertheless the mayor said he would\nsee that a man was employed for a day\nor so making some kind of order.\nCITY POWER PLANT\nCorrespondence was read between the\ncouncil and R. S. Lennie, representing\nthe Allis-Chalmers-Bullock company,\nanent the taking over of the power plant.\nThe effect of this was published in The\nDaily NewB on Sunday morning laBt,\nThe company agrees to the terms of\nthe resolution regarding the taking over\nof the power plant which were passed at\nthe meeting of the city council on Monday week, and makes three stipulations:\nFirst, that the company's responsibility\nshould not ?o beyond the $3000 w-thhe d;\nsecond, that the company was otherwise\nrelieved of all further liability, and third\nthat Cecil B. Smith be not debarred from\nputting fn an Allls-Chalmers-Bullock\ncompany's governor should he so desire.\nThis met with the approval of the\ncouncil. The mayor further stated that\nhe had communicated with Mr. Smith,\nwho had stated that he could supply a\nsatisfactory governor, which would fulfill the conditions exacted from the he-\nginning, for a sum not exceeding $2500.\nOf this action the council also approved.\nPOWER PLANT FOREMAN\nNext was taken up the question of the\nforeman or superintendent of the power\nplant, who will be under the control of\nthe city electrician, R. Brawn. There\nwere three applications, Clark, Runchey\nand Read, the latter two being present,\nand both being married men. It was\nunderstood that a house be built lor the\nman appointed and that the appointee\nchoose his own shift. Mr. Brown explained that as soon as the governor was\nInstalled the plant should run itself day\ntn and day out. Hence an eight hour\nshift was no hardship. There was no\noiling to be done. Hence the foreman\nshould not object to spending some two\nhours daily in supervising the work of\nhis subordinates. That was why he was\ngetting extra money.\nThe council called on the personal applicants and having talked to them of\ntheir qualifications, proceeded to make\ntheir choice by* ballot. The result was\nthat J. A. Runchey was appointed unanimously.\nIt was decided that the superintendent's salary be fixed at $150 a month\nand that of the assistants at $100 pet-\nmonth. Further, that contracts be entered into with each man, the superintendent to give three months' notice and\nthe assistants one month's In case of\ntheir desiring to vacate their positions.\nElectrician Brown was instructed to\ninstall Mr. Runchey the next morning\nand to get the necessary contracts signed\nFRONTAGE TAX\nThe chairman of the hoard of works\nsubmitted specifications which bad been\ncarefully drawn up by the city engineer,\nJ .0. Dufresne, as to the putting in of\ncement pavements.\nThe next question was whether the cement work should be put on by the olty\nor by contract.\nAid. Procter urged that the method\nshould be contract but that the contractor be placed under bonds to finish within a specified time and to have the work\nstand a year.\nMayor Taylor said that bonds were not\nworth much in some cases. Tbe city had\nc\u00bbly settled such a caw that very night\nand had narrowly escaped a lawsuit,\neven then having to finish the work\nitself. The city engineer had proved himself capable and economical. There were\ntwo fe.lt.on8 presented tor the morth and\nsouth sides of Baker street, between\nJosephine and Ward streets. The bank\nof Montreal bad been approached on the\nmatter bad returned a favorable answer.\nAid. Procter sugggested that tbe Hume\nand Strathcona hotels be permitted to do\nthe same.\nMayor Taylor said there would be no\ntrouble If the bank would finance the\nscheme.\nAid. McMorris moved and Aid. Procter\nseconded, that the petitions be granted,\nthe bank consenting, the loans to be repaid In six years with six per cent Interest.   This carried.\nCONTRACT OR DAY LABOR\nWith regard to day work or contract\nwork ln the laying of the sidewalks the\ncity engine.r s_ld he had no gre t experience but on being pressed said be would\nhave no hesitation in undertaking it on\nbehalf of the city. On the other hand\nthe specifications were drawn very tightly and a contractor would be well held\ndown. With the same machinery he\ncould lay as good a sidewalk as cheaply\nas a contractor.\nAid. McMorris pointed out that con-\ntrace work as exemplified in this city,\nwas not good.\nEngineer Dufresne stated that Victoria\nhad Its sidewalks laid by day work and\nVancouver by contract. Victoria's cost\nthe most.\nMayor Taylor said that he was ln favor of day work. The Victoria sidewalks\nwere not to be surpassed, while Vancouver's sidewalks, in the business section at all events, were not particularly\ngood and in some cases defective.\nAid. Patenaude remarked that Montreal's sidewalks were laid by contract\nand the city suffered.\nAid. Hale said that the contractors\nwould understand that if they laid defective walks there would he no more\nwork for them.\nMayor Taylor remarked If they were\ndefective there would be no more cement\nsidewalks for some years,\nA compromise was arrived at by the\npassage of a resolution calling for tenders for the work, jthe lowest of any tender not necessarily being accepted.\nFREE SPEECH\nRev, F. H. Graham, while premising\nthat he had no objection to free speech,\nobjected to an attack made upon the\nchurch of England by a preacher of an\nunknown sect on tbe street corner while\nhe was passing. Mr. Graham had requested the right to reply but waB refused. He would like to have the right\nof free speech himself. There had been\nother complaints from other denominations including the Salvation army, the\nMethodists and the Baptists,\nMayor Taylor said the right of tree\nspeech should he safeguarded, but the\nman's voice in question was a public\nnuisance.\nA resolution was moved by Aid. Steed,\nand seconded by Aid. Patenaude that all\npersons using the streets for public services, shall first get the consent of the\ncouncil. The order is to take effect on\nJuly 27. In the meantime the preacher\nin question'would be limited ln time and\nstrength of voice and It be incited a\nbreach of the peace he would be stopped\nentirely.\nCITY  ENGINEER'S  REPORT\nThe following report was submitted by\nthe city engineer:\nIn Ihe street department tbere |s\n$500.10, of which $326.55 is chargeable to\nthe improvement* on Hall street, at approach to city wharf. This work is now\na little better than half completed. Of\nthe balance, top dressing Baker street\ncost $45.30; grading lane back of the\nStrathcona, $51; catch basin on Silica\nstreet, $15, and cleaning and general repairs, $62.25.\nConcrete Sidewalks\u2014I have looked into\nthis matter very carefully, and have prepared a set of specifications together\nwith an approximate estimate of cost,\nwhich I have handed to the chairman of\nthe board of works. I have written to\nthe city engineers of Victoria, .Vancouver, Calgary and Edmonton, but so far\nhave had no reply from the two latter;\nthe two former had no printed specifications and gave me their figures only.\nRock Breaking Plant\u2014I have carefully\ngone over the plant and cannot see any\npossible way of using it in Its present\ncondition. I would recommend tearing\ndown the old plant and reconstructing\nit as per sketch herewith. The present\ntimbers, bins and sills, are all rotten\nand broken down, but the machinery,\nexcept for rust, Is In good condition. I\nwould judge that it could be set up in\ngood working order for about $800 or\n$900. I wouid also recommend that it\nbe run by an electric motor; a 15-horse\npower motor suitable for this purpose\ncould be laid down here and Installed\nfor $400. The plant was previously driven with the steam roller, which would\nbe both clumsy and costly. '\nTbe initial cost seemed great hut the\nengineer explained that there would be\neventually a great saving to the city aud\nstrongly supported his suggestion. The\nmayor, however, was of the opinion that\ntbe city was so financially situated that\nthe matter had better rest, for a week\nuntil it was decided whether the cement\nBidcwalka should be laid by contract or\nday work. The streets would have to\nbe macadamized but that might well be\nlaid over for another year, even though\nthe macadam on Baker street were so\nworn .In places that the cobble stones\nbelow had almost been reached.\nELECTRIC SIGNS\nThe bylaw dealing with electric signs,\nother signs and awnings was finally\nadopted.   \u201e \u25a0\nCITY FINANCES\nBylaws providing for Interest on sinking fund and debentures for general expenditure and for school purposes were\npassed through their first stages.\nid a tax on\nland of 28 mills and 2 mills on improvements. This was 13 mills for Interest\non debentures and 15 mills for sinking\nfund.\nThe hour being well after 11 o'clock,\nthe council deferred the further discussion of its finances until the next meeting.\nThe city electrician was instructed to\nInstall a ram at tbe power plant for tbe\nsupply of water for domestic purposes.\nThe council then adjourned until Monday evening next.\nAMERICA DAY\nCaptures Three Events in\nthe Finals\nReception  Postponed\nBecause of the convention today and the public meeting this\nevening, the boat club has postponed their reception to the winners of the N.P.A.A.O. regatta\nat Seattle until a later date.\nWAITS FOR THE PAGEANT\nQUEBEC CROWDED ON EVE OF ITS\nTERCENTENARY\nPREPARATIONS   FOR   ARRIVAL   OF\nTHE PRINCE\nQUEBEC, July 20.\u2014There was a\nremavkable accession to the number of\nvisitors here today, crowds promises to\nexceed all expectations. Troops mounted and unmounted from all outlaying\nProvinces of the Dominion are pouring\ninto the city. By tomorrow there will\nbe a force of 14,000.\nThirty northwest mounted police arrived this morning, and rode into camp\nde Saiaberry, also thirty members of\nthe 19th Alberta mounted rifles.\nMarquis de Lavls Mirepoix, who arrived yesterday, with marquis de Montcalm .says the marquis is so delighted\nwith Quebec that he will tour Canada\nright across to Vancouver. He is a\nslender young man of charming manners but to his great regret cannot\nspeak a word of English.\nPrince of Wales and suite will arrive\nin Quebec at two p. m, on Wednesday.\nSalutes will be fired as the Indomitable\napproaches. The admirals and captains\nor the Atlantic fleet will first go on\nhoard, accompanied Tjy rear admiral\nKlngsmlll as the head of the Canadian\nfleet After the governor general, accompanied by lord Roberts, will attend,\nfollowed by Sir Wilfrid Laurier and Jos.\nPope, under secretary of state for Canada. Sir Wilfrid Laurier will present\nan address on behalf of the Dominion.\nAt four o'clock the prince will land.\nThe American-battleship New Hampshire arrived In port this afternoon and\nmade a most picturesque entry. When\nopposite the Louise basin she fired 19\nguns which were immediately answered\nby the muffled, roar of the citadel guns.\nThen the New Hampshire ran up the\nBritish flag and saluted the British men-\nof-war. The British men-of-war ran up\nthe American flag and replied.\nLord Roberts will sail for England\non August 21.\nGREAT BRITAIN LEADING\nTRIAL HEAT8 OF THE DAY ARE\nMUCH IN FAVOR OF THE ENGLISHMEN \u2014 OTHER NATIONS\nHAVE NOT IMPROVED THEIR\nRELATIVE   STANDINGS.\nEMBARGO JOT RAISED\nA   STATEMENT MADE   IN   BRITISH\nCOMMONS YESTERDAY\nGOVERNMENT HAS  NO  INTENTION\nOF  MOVING\nLONDON, July 20.\u2014Sir. Ed. Strachay,\nmember of parliament for the south division of Somerset, representative of\ntbe board of agriculture in the house of\ncommons, dashed the hopes of those\nwho have advocated the raising of the\nembargo on Canadian cattle by stating\ndefinitely in the house of commons this\nafternoon that the government had no\npresent intention of proposing legislation removing the prohibition of such\nimportations.\nNEARLY  DROWNED\nWells and Balmer Rescue J.

When tbe spot was\nreached It was found that the man had sank.\nWith exact pmelseness the gaff hook wus\nlowertd and the man's shirt was hooked\n(into it and he was dragged up and\ninto the boat. He proved to be J. O Ighton.\nThe man must have been under the water\nabout four minutes and It took some time\nanil trouble to revive him but this was\neventually accomplished. Messrs. * Wells\nand Balmer are deserving of special credit\nfor their p. ompt work.

McMORRIS  Manager\nDUNCAN  ROSS' DEFENDERS\nThe liberals of Eastern, and particularly of Southeastern British Columbia.\n. are gradually awakening to the unpleasant certainty that in the next dominion parliament Yale-Cariboo and\nKootenay are most likely to be repre\nsented by conservatives, and hence we\nhave another protest, which we publish\nthis morning, upon the stand tuken in\nthese columns against Duncan Ross'\ncowardly postponement of the Yale-Cariboo election.\nDr. Watt, of Fort Steele, in his letter\npublished in this issue, declares that\nDuncan Ross is a very brave man; that\nhe scorns to take any undue advantage in election matters, and that an\nelection in Yale-Cariboo on the general\nelection day ls an Impossibility.\nIn addition the doctor abuses The\nDaily News aa \"narrow\" and very \"ignorant,\" and closes with the oft told tale\nthat any way as the conservatives In\nthe past held bye-elections in Yale- Carl-\nboo, they cannot now point tbe finger\nYOUR CROPS REFUND ITS COST\u2014AND MORE\nAnimal Fertilizer\n.,!\u25a0   Guaranteed Free From Chemical Adulteration\n\u25a0fr...

C.\nof scorn at the liberals and cry cowards, for doing the same thing.\nPerhaps The Dally News is a little\nnarrow at times, but if we were broader, men like doctor Watt and some\nothers that might be mentioned would\nbe handled without gloves, and there is\ntime to do that yet. It may astonish\nsome very good people, hut we admit\nthat we do not know everything, but\nadd that we hope to In time.\nAn undoubtedly wise man like Dr.\nHugh Watt, however, should confine\nhimself to generalities in his valued\n'communications, because when he\ntouches actual facts, as he occasionally\ndoes, he invariably does his party harm\nand makes himself look rather ridiculous. It is no real defence, to say tbat\nwhat the conservatives of the past have\ndone in their day and generation, must\nhave been right, and cannot be questioned by the conservatives of today.\nThe question is always, is this or that\nmatter right now. That Is what the\npeople of today want to know. In so\nsmall a matter as the holding of a bye-\nelection In Yale-Cariboo, however, Dr.\nWatt falls into very grievous error. In\nthe last general dominion elections held\nunder conservative administration,\nthose held on June 23, 1896, not only\nwas the Yale-Cariboo election held on\nthe general election day but at that\ntime the constituency embraced the\nwhole of what Is now known as Kootenay.\nThink of it! The liberals of today,\nincluding Duncan Ross, Dr. Hugh Watt\nand F. J. Deane, say that with all the\nimproved means of communication\nwhich admittedly exist now, that lt is\nimpossible for a reasonably honest returning officer to cover Yale-Cariboo in\nMme .to hold the election on the general election day, while under the last\ntory government, not only was Yale-\nCariboo covered within the time, but\nthe whole of Kootenay also, and by\njust one returning officer. If the conservatives could do what they did In\n1896, and the liberals today say that\nthey find part of the work impossible\nwithin the time allowed, fs It not time\nthat the electors put the out-of-date\nK-t .ts where they belong, and replace\nthem by decent up-to-date conservatives?\nTh3 Daily News may be narrow, and\nit may be ignorant in a measure also,\nbut it ventures to assert that Duncan\nRoss1 cowardly attitude in trying to\nobtain an unfair advantage in the next\ndominion elections will cost him hla\nseat for a certainty and we hope it will.\nWestern people want their public men\nto play fair. They will forgive many\nshortcomings In a reasonably decent\ncandidate but anything that is palpably\nunfair, they will resent.\nTo claim that the holding of the next\nelection in Yale-Cariboo on the general\nelection day, is an impossibility now,\nwhen it was more than done ln 1896, is\nabsurd and to defend such an act, shows\nwant of ordinary, everyday horse sense.\nTODAY'S CONVENTION\nStalwart conservatives from all over\nthe big constituency of Kootenay are in\nthe city today for the purpose of organizing for the approaching dominion campaign and chiefly to aelect a conservative candidate for the riding.\nIt is always difficult in the west to\nInduce really representative men, men\nwho reflect credit upon those who elect\nthem, aa well as upon themselves, by the\ncharacter of the good work accomplished\nat Ottawa, to1 accept party nominations.\nThis has been the case where the aver-\nMINARD LINAMENT CO., LIMITED.\nDears Sirs: This fall I got thrown on a\nfence and hurt my chest very bail, so I\ncould not work and It hurt me to breathe.\nI tiled all kinds of linamunt-* and they did\ntne no good.\nOne bottle of MINARD'S LINAMENT,\nwarmed on flannela and applied on my\nbreast, cured me completely.\nC.

S.\nage session at Ottawa was about three\nmonths, and it Is doubly so now when\nthe sessions last from six to seven\nmonths in place of three,\nAny man accepting a nomination at\nthe present time must be prepared to\nmake a great personal sacrifice, as unlike members representing constituencies comparatively near the capital, he\nmust stay the session through to the end\nand cannot well revisit his home and\nplace of business between times.\nThe conservatives jot Kootenay are\nfortunate in having within their rank3\nmen who are willing to make a great\npersonal sacrifice for the good of the\nparty and for the well being of the conn-\ntry at large but the fact that who over\nIs chosen as the conservative standard\nbearer In Kootenay will perforce be called upon to sacrifice, to a greater or less\nextent, his business affairs, should be\nweil remembered hy the rank and file\nof the party, and who ever is chosen to\ndefeat Smith Curtis should receive the\nmost generous support from the conservatives of Kootenay.\nThe situation has been,greatly cleared\nby the selection of Smith Curtis by the\nliberals as their candidate. Had Mr.\nGalliher run again it would have been\na difficult matter for the torles to win\nout, but, providing the convention today\nmakes a wise choice, and we have no\nhesitation in saying that the right man\nwill be found, even if a little extra persuasion has to be used to fOTuce the gentleman to run, Kootenay should beyond\nquestion be found In the conservative\nlist on next election day.\nEDITORIAL NOTES\nStreet evangelists seldom abuse the\nprivilege freely given them of addressing the public on street corners. Many\nof the inconveniences caused hy the\npractice have been readily overlooked\nhere and elsewhere but abuse of other,\nreligious bodies does not or should not\ncome within tlie lines the street preachers are supposed to follow. It is quite\npossible to believe in and stand up for\nfree speech in the fullest sense, and\nyet to object to the abuse of alleged\nfree speech when it ls used, not for the\nbenefit of mankind, not to elevate and\neducate the people, but simply to abuse\nthose with whom the speaker happens\nto differ with upon religious questions.\nSome spot down on the d P.

This slip was\nnot discovered until the convention\npassed the chamber, when Switzerland\nbrought their claim to the notice ot\nEngland.\nThe French deputies, being too late\nto do anything in their own house,\nworked upon the senators for the department of Centre Jura, where the silk\nand watchmaking interests are strong,\nand thus the opposition began.\nIt was argued that these trades were\namong those for whom the concessions\nhad been most boasted of, and now\nSwitzerland Ib to share In the benefits,\nthe value of the concessions to fall to\nthe ground.

Not in its long history of\n300 years has the ancient town of St.\nfjawrence entertained so great & crowd.\nAll Is In readiness for the biggest historical exhibition of modern times, and\nwith the official reception tomorrow to\nthe French, English and American battleships and the distinguished guests,\nthe week's festivities will be fairly inaugurated. The prince of Wales, now\nspeeding across the Atlantic on the famous mystery ship, the British cruiser\nIndomitable, will arrive Wednesday\nafternoon, and his reception will bespeak the regard in which all Canadians\nhold their future king. Vice-president\nFairbanks will be among tbe distinguished men who will greet the prince\nand b-d him welcome to the new world.\nHeralds clad in all the finery of a\nby-gone age and mounted on dashing\nsteeds cantered through the streets of\nQuebec today and men of the watch\nshouted out announcements to the\ncrowds of the great events to come.\nPracticlally all of the hotel accommodations of Quebec were engaged tar in\nadvance by parties of distinguished\nmen and women from other lands, and\nthe rank and file of the vis.tors will be\naccommodated in the tent cities which\nhave sprung up as If by magic on the\nheights ot Quebec and In other places\nin and near the city. Hundreds of private . residences have. been opened to\nvisitors, and all the educational and\nreligious institutions of Quebec and Levis have transformed their class rooms\nand dormitories into sleeping rooms\nwhich will accommodate thousands.\nTemporary restaurants and lunch\nrooms have been established by scores\nand the' provisions of the' thousands is\nnot considered to be a matter for apprehension. V'\nWhile the gathering of such a crowd\ntn so small a city is bound to result, ln\nsome discomfort for the visitors, the\ngreat spectacle will be Well worth it.\nThere Is no such other stage in the\nworld for dramatic pageantry as the\nPlains of Abraham, where the grandeur\nof the natural scenery defies description, and where the _ti\u201e000 spectators\nin the giand stand, face the St. Lawrence, 300 feet below, at the point\nwhere Wolfe's Highlanders clambered\nup the heights.\nFrom the foot of the statue, where\nstands for all time the bronze figure of\nthe great Champlaln, stepping ashore,\nas lt were, as he did ~. long ago, to\ntake possession of this new country\nof the west, the prince of Wales and\nvice president Fairbanks with other il-\nluV-rfous guests, will see in procession\nbeftre them all the great men and women who have made thfs country what\nIt Is, and later on will see, as in a\ndream, the moving, living pictures of\nthe great events ot those early days.\n. On the banks of that river, when the\nlong rays of the sun stretch over the\nplains, shall be seen again, as Cartler\nsaw nearly 400 years ago, a cluster of\nwigwams aet beneath the trees. Away\non the broad waters, of the river will\ncome, the little boats with Cartler and\nhis crew, their names still preserved\nand their descendants impersonating\nthem.\nThen the spectators will be transported in their dreams to the court of\nFrance, the gardens at Fontainbleu, and\nh'gh on a white charger, trapped with\ncloth of gold, rides the proud figure of\nFrancis I. as they see him in pictures\npainted when he lived and was surrounded by his court.\nThen back again to the little old\nvillage of Stadacona to see Champlaln\nas he brings his girl wife to the new\ncountry.\nSo on through many scenes, and then\nat last in a final scene the armies of\ntwo brave nations, side by side in a\nparade of honor, the scarlet and gold\nof the British and the blue and white of\nthe French, headed by four noble generals\u2014Montcalm and Wolfe, Levis and\nMurray. The flags wave, the drums\nrattle, the trumpets blare, the dream of\nthe past is over and only the wonder\nof the present and the infinite possibilities of the future remain.\nNo descendants of either major general James Wolfe or of the marquis de\nMontcalm remain to take part in the\nceremonies in the Ancient Capital and\nas for Samuel de Champlaln, there are\nnone of his descendants known to be\nin existence.\nThese are the three principal figures\nof the demonstration whose names will\nbe linked for all time with the founding of Quebec and the most notable\nbattles.\nGeneral \"Wolfe, as history informs us,\ndied unmarried, though his action\nwhile in the sloop of war before landing for his last fight, would tend to\nshow he was betrothed to a Miss Low*\nther. Seated In the cabin by the side\nof his former schoolfellow, commander\nJohn Jervls, afterwards earl St. Vincent,\nhe.told the latter that he expected to\nfali In the battle of next day, and taking from his bosom a miniature of Miss\nLowther, he gave it to him with the request, that he would return it to her\nBhould the presentment prove true.

Of\ncourse there were some difficulties and\nof course there were some grievances\nexpressed. Some people aB yet do not\nsee tiie reason of the change and say\nthat the morning hours in which no\nbusiness is done any wuy and consequently want none or them. Of the local establishments, as far as could be\nlearned, tbere was only one, that of\nof W. G, Glllett, which kept to.the old\ntime. The teamsters aiso have stood\nby the hours io which they have been\naccustomed. Exactly why these huve\nnot (.alien in is not understood. On tne\nother hand the banks and business offices, the stores, have fallen Into line.\nOne storekeeper, speaking yesterday\nof the change and whether the C.P.R.\nwould or would not have fallen Into\nline said that while he hoped that the\nouservance of the new hours would he\ngeneral yet at the same time even if\nthe Canadian Pacific were not to keep\nthe new time there would he a certain\nbenefit derivable from the practice. The\nstores closing at 6 o'clock, city time,\nand the freight offices calling that hour\nonly 5 p. m., would mean that the delivery wagons would have an extra hour\nto get down to the depot with their out\nof town consignments. It would be\nbetter for their rural customers.\nThere might be some difference made\nas. to the Wednesday boats up the lake.\nThe stores closed at 12 on half-holidays\nand if the boat were to start out on\ncity tlmev there would be given ample\ntime to get to lunch and go for a jaunt\non the lake and yet be able to return\nto Nelson that night or arrive in Kaslo\nin plenty of time for an evening's fish-\ning and return next morning In time\nfor business. But if they left at 3\no'clock, c.ty time, there would just one\nhour less for this and the chances were\nthat not nearly as many people would\navail themselves of the opportunity afforded.\nThere has been some objection expressed with regard to the effect that\nthe new hours will have in the winter,\nbut It does not seem to be well founded.\nTaking the carpenters, for example, the\nonly body of union men who objected to\nIhe change. Now, under old hours, in\nthe winter time a carpter could seldom\nget in a whole day. It was too dark to\nwork long before closing hoursodiflree\nwork long before closing time came. He\nwas consequently paid by the hour. Under the new arrangement he will lose\nnothing In the morning to speak of and\nwill be able to finish in the afternoon.\nThe net result is calculated to give him\ngreater earning power for the winter\nday than was formerly the case. As to\nthe school children they will now be\nable to work altogether in daylight and\nthe stores will certainly save In their\nlighting bills.\nTaken all round, the general concensus of opinion is strongly ln favor of the\nnew system, and, indeed, may he said to\nbe  even  enthusiastic.\nTHE BIG  HILL\nGreat Undertaking on C P.

Some of\nthe detail*) given can hm-dly be repeated\nIn a general newspaper, but Dr. Allen declares that a receiver in one of the post\noffice public telephones at the central er\nchange was'wiped with a awab to test the\nexistence of germs in' the mouthpiece.

The second guinea pig died twenty-.seven days after inoculation, and examination after death gave\na s'mllar result. Dr. Allan urges the absolute necessity of .all public telephones\nand telephone boxes being ripldly cleansed\nand disinfected day by day. \"As these\ncall boxeB are at present constructed and\n\u2022situated.\" he f?aya, \"St la difficult to imagine how.

BEALBY HAS DONE IN\nA SHORT TIME x\nVisitors to the Queen City of the\nKootenays, who are in the habit of\npassing up and down the West Arm,\nmay have noticed during the past winter and spring, the gradual erection\nof light and airy structures of glass at\nabout three miles from the city and on\nthe southern sshore of the lake. Whilst\nnot of such gigantic dimensions as are\nsometimes used in the east and in certain parts of the United States, these\nglaBS erections are of very respectable\nsize, namely 60 to 100 feet long and 12\nto 20 feet wide. Their construction is a\ntribute to the attractions of the Kootenays. J. T. Bealby, who has built\nthem, came out from the old country\nfull of enthusiasm for the beauty and\nperfection of the fruit produced in this\ndistrict. He argued that, if the sunof\nGlorious Kootenay can ripen outdoor\nfruit to such perfection, It ought, in a\nsimilar way, to help produce indoor\nfruit of an equally excellent quality.\nAccordingly, having the courage to put\nhis reasoning to the test of practical\nexperience, he has invested capital in\nthe enterprise, and spent several weeks\nof hard labor in erecting and equipping\nfour fine houses. And the results, as\nfar as they admit of being summarized,\nabundantly justify the constructor's anticipations. In one of the largest of\nthe houses there is at this present moment hanging on the plants as noble a\ncrop of tomatoes as a man need wish\nto see. From another house Mr. Bealby\nhas been cutting cucumbers almost\nevery day since the middle of April.\nBoth tomatoes and cucumbers were exhibited recently at the Calgary Dominion fair and excited a considerable\namount of Interest; they were, as stated in our columns a few days ago, the\nhest fruit of their kind at the fair.\nA third house is also planted with tomatoes, now beginning to fruit, and\nthe fourth house is filled with (lowering\nplants, conscluous amongst them being\nsome begonias, fuschlas, cannas,\nlorn'as and balsams. But it will be in\nwinter that this house will be at its\nbest, for It Is intended to make a special feaure of winter flowers, such as\nroses, chrysanthemums, carnations, cyclamen, primulas, -cirerarias, genistas,\ntuberoses, sohmums, and so forlh.\nThere Is on the ranch a fifth house,\nwhich is now filled with ferns and\nBeedl!ng begonias, but ts eventually to\nbe devoted to ferns and similar green\nfolloged p'ants. The visitor laat once\n8'.ruck by the remarkably fresh aud verdant appearance of the plants in every\nhouse, a fact reflecting the highest\ncredit upon the skill nnd attention of\nMr. Bealby's gardner, A. Lawrie, a man\nof pride and varied experience in his\nprofession. In order to secure a con-\nslant supply of water to the houses,\nand also to the ranch generally, Mr.\nBealby has set up a powerful pump and\nsteel-frame windmill, by means of which\nwater is lifted to a large tank situated\nat one of the highest points of the\nproperty, whence it finds its way\nthrough iron pipes by natural gravitation into the glasshouses, and to the\ndahlias, chrysanthemums, and other\ncrops growing all over the ranch. There\nis every reason to^belleve that venture\nwill result not only in satisfactory financial returns to the enterprising builder, but also in accession of honor to\nNelson and the Kootenays in general.\nHAD A FIT\nLittle Twelve-Year-Old boy Drowned at\nFort William\nFORT WILLIAM, July 20.-A young lad\n12 yean old, named Lcvalor, was drowned\nyesterday while playing on the docks.

C.\nWHAT BORDEN GAINED\nHIS GREAT BATTLE OVER THE\nAYLESWORTH ACT\nABJECT SURRENDER OF LAURIER\nGOVERNMENT\n(The Mail-Empire.)\nThe gain made by tbe people as a consequence ot the great fight carried on by\nMr Borden and his parliamentary friends\nagainst the Aylesworth election bill can\nbe appreciated when the bill, as it was,\nand the bill, as it is, are compared. Under the original scheme the government\nproposed to take to Itself the right to\nappoint officers of its own choice to make\nvoters' lists in British Columbia, Manitoba, New Ontario and unorganized Quebec.   The government also sought, under the proposed legislation, power to\nappoint officers of its own choice to rearrange the provincial voters' lists ln\nManitoba so as to make them fit tbe\nfederal constituencies which are not coterminous with those for the legislature.\nHad the plans of Ottawa politicians\nsucceeded it would have been possible\nfor government candidates in Manitoba,\nBritish Columbia, New Ontario and unorganized Quebec to nominate the men\nwhom the government would appoint to\ndeal with the lists.   Thus, active poltl-\nclans on one side would have had the\ncontrol of the first step towards and election.   Whatever these men might undertake to do would have been legal.   And\nwhile they could not have been punished\nfor any injustice done by them, the electors whom they might disfranchise would\nhave had no redress.   In the preparation\nof the voters' list for the portions of the\ncountry   named   the   polticians   would\nhave had a free hand and in the allocation of electors in the Manitoba constituencies   the   same   state   if affairs\nwould have presented Itself.   This was\nthe original form of the bill.   On May\n12th, after the opposition had pointed out\nwhat the thing meant, and had informed the country of the iniquity concealed\nIn It, sir Wilfrid Laurier came down a\nlittle.    He professed to be anxious to\nmeet the criticisms that had been made.\nHe proposed that federal voters' lists\nshould be made in Manitoba, British Columbia,  New  Ontario and  unorganized\nQuebec; also that the lists in Manitoba\nshould be carved to fit the federal constituencies, but he was willing now to\nallow the work to he done by Judges.\nThe plant to give the control of the voters' lists to partisans was abandoned,\nbut the policy of having federal lists to\nsupercede the provincial lists was insisted upon.   Had this proposition been\naccepted the people who have been enfranchised under the legislation devised\nby provincial governments would have\nbeen put to the trouble of registering\nagain for the federal contest.   The politicians, moreover, woud have been given\nanother chance to get electors off the\nlists, or to put non-electors on the list.\nAgainst this modified scheme the opposition fought, and today the bill is, comparatively speaking, moderate.   The attempt to make new federal lists In Manitoba is abandoned.   The attempt to make\nsuch lists In British Columbia has been\ndropped.    The  attempt  to make new\nfederal lists in Quebec is no longer pressed.  All that the government proposes is\nthat in Manitoba judges shall make the\nprovincial lists fit the federal constituencies, and that In New Ontario judges\nshall appoint enumerators to take the\nnames of voters who are not on the Ontario lists and shall adjudicate upon tbe\ndemand for enfranchisement of these peo\npie.    The measure as It stands is all\nright in so far as Manitoba is concerned,\nfor somebody must make the lists fit the\nconstituencies and the judges can do this\nwork better than the returning officers.\nBut lt Is not excusable in the case of\nOntario.   There is no need for federal\nlists in the province and the proposition\nthat such lists be made is of the nature\nof an Insult.   It Is discriminatory and\nIt implies injustice or fraud on the part\nof Ontario alone.   The country has gained very considerably by the fight conducted by the opposition for the bill has\nbeen \"whittled  down   considerably.    If\nthis improper scheme had never been\nlaunched the fight would not have been\nnecessary  and  if  the  fight had been\navoided   parliament   would   have  prorogued 6lx weeks or two months ago, In\nwhich event the country would have been\nsaved the huge expenditure which the\nprolongation of the session in the attempt to pass the nefarious bill bas involved.\nWords of -taiie\nI*t_*w-\u00abr-___fredV\u00bbt_-rfwtJ-*l*\nPlena's medic-tin an composed, ta siren\nby leaden in all tike mml stboobof\nmedicine, should ban Car more weight\n(ban any \u25a0mount of no^prabaatonal tea-\nUmc-ni-Jfl.

The encouragement of knowing that\nothers are engaged In the same intellectual or social or moral work would be\nmissed by most people if it were not for\npublicity. As Mr. Strachey pointed out,\nplans may even be made to check evil\nthrough publicity.\nAs communication has become perfected, a tendency has grown up to exaggerate the power of the press. Possibly those who over-estimate this power\nmost fail to remember that a newspaper\nIs a news carrier aud should not have a\npersonal bias against the interests of\none section of the well doing community\nor in favor of another. Some of the\nworld's doings no newspaper would publish. The first limit to publicity ls that\nlt should be given to truth and not to\nerror. Information which a newspaper\nowes to Its public may come into a newspaper office and only by submitting the\nalleged facts to publicity ls it possible\nto find out what Is true and what is\nmistaken. It has often happened that\na report at first sight Incredible has turn\ned out to be true. If a newspaper waited\nfor scientific accuracy, there would soon\nbe no newspaper. Without newspapers\nthere would be practically no publicity,\nwhich Is one of the greatest powers for\nadvancement in the world.\nMr. Strachey puts .the case for the\nnewspaper ably. It is no exaggeration,\nhowever, to say that publicity eventually\nturns always In the interest of the world\nat large and cannot be used for the purposes of any  particular section.   The\nA. E. G.

He laid down as a first\nprinciple that the business of the paper\nis publicity and cited an Incident from\ntlie life of Delane, edtor of the Times\nwhen that paper was at Its greatest, to\nshow that the most conservative and successful Journalists have no other idea of a\nnewspaper than that It exists for this\npurpose only. One of Delane's friends\nwas complaining that some item of news\nhad appeared lu the Times which ought\nnot to have been there. \"You forget,\"\nreplied Delane, \"that my business is\npublicity.\"\nThe use of publicity Is to enable great\nnumbers of individuals to rule their actions ln business and in private as well as\nin public life, so that they may relate\nthemselves successfully to the progress\nof the world.

Winston Churchill, M.P.,\nwho met with a heany reception, in seconding the resolution -mid most of those\npresent were young people and he\nthought it was an exhilarating reflection that the tercentenary of Canada\nshould ret-all to their mind that the venerable island which nourished them had\nalready a daughter 300 years old.\nDr. Parkin, whose long and persevering labors in the cause oi' imperial federation were weii known to all of them,\nand he thought recognized gratefully\nwherever they were known, had referred\nto many of the stages in the history of\nCanada, many of tbe noble milestones ln\nthe.majestic march of imperial federation.* Tne history ol Canada was already\na long one, but its future attracted them\neven more than its past. He agreed with\nwhat Dr. Parkin had said that there was\nperhaps no other region in the whole\nworld which had a greater potentiality of\n\u2022expansion, a greater future and a greater range ot hope before It.\nThere they saw an active, thriving,\npeaceable, free population in a vast land\nV}sBes3ed of every form of natural\nwealth; tbey saw that those people were\nmoving steadily on all the great high\nroads of social and political progress and\n-while they developed to the full tbelr\ncapacity for the onward and forward\nMovement they nevertheless preserved\nthat dignity, that decorum, tbat sobriety\nof public and private life which as an\nelement had yet to be shown to great\nand perhaps inestimable value to the\nwhole continent of America.\nThey had come there to consider the\nmeans by wblcb the.city and tbe unlver-\nEity should participate in the celebrations\nwhich were to take place In Canada In\nJuly to Wolfe and Montcalm, two soldiers who died on the same field of battle. He was struck by the reference of\nthe vice-chancellor to the quotation\nwhich general Wolfe made from Grey's\nElegy as he was moving up to the attack on tbe heights of Abraham. The\nlines were well known, \"The paths of\nglory lead but to the grave.\" They all\nremembered the high compliment which\nthe young soldier paid to the poet, \"The\npaths of glory lead but to the grave.\"\nBut it was not true. All paths of glory\ndid not lead to tbe grave. They were\nalmost the only paths that could overleap the grave.\nLet them consider for a moment what\nwould have happened if tbe British\ntroops had stormed the heights ot Abraham after some shabby or great breach\not the laws of honorable warfare, or if\nthe victory had been sullied by massacre, or the French had fled with cowardly precipitation, this very battle,\nwhich today both races In Canada would\nhave joined together to celebrate, would\nhave been a canker, a corrosive sore and\nthe Ink with which it was recorded would\nhave blurrnd page after page of history\nand instead of being, as It was today\na memory of union, of peace and of reconciliation, an Inspiring and noble memory, it would have been a cause of\nfitinme and a curse poisoning tbe relations between the two peoples of that\ngreat land. No, the conflicts of base\nmen, by barborous methods for sordid\nand petty aims, might lead only to the\ngrave, but the combats of heroes had in\nthem the seeds of future unity and reconciliation.   (Applause.)\nHe thought it might also be found true\nIn the evolution of events that South\nAfrica would be the scene of another\nBimilar union. There they bad had an\nequally fierce and furious encounter.\nThere they had had equally valiant men\ndoing their duty on either side and there\nagain the day would come\u2014he did not\nknow whether they would live to celebrate It, but there would undoubtedly\nbe an occasion when there In Oxford another generation would assemble to celebrate the union In South Africa\u2014of people who would look back to the events of\n\u2022recent, history, not with feelings of\nrivalry and of hatred, but with the feeling of common pride that the people of\nCanada today regard tbe struggle of\nWolfe and Montcalm.\nAnd then all those battles and struggles in the South African war, which\nseemed so horrid when they took place\nand which were accompanied by such\nharsh and bitter feelings would themselves be preserved as but a romance in\nthe history of South Africa, and as a\ntreasure house from which future South\nAfricans would draw, just as Canadians\nwere drawing today, examples of manliness and sacrifices to discipline and courage to instruct and guide tbe youth of\nlater times.\nDr. Parkin had spoken of the comprehensive character of the British empire\nand its wide tolerance, which they should\nlabor to preserve. There ought to be\nroom in the wide dominions of the king\nfor all sorts of races and all kinds of\nmen, for every different type of human\nexcellence; there ought to be room for\nthem, not as mere repititions of the British type, but to develop their own special\nand peculiar excellencies In their own\nparticular way. Dr. Parkin had shown\nhow the French-Canadian had come with\nIn the circle of the British empire and\nfound peace and freedom under the shelter of our flag and the next few years\nwould show how the Dutch race In South\nAfrica had come within the circle. He\nwould be bold to say, but he hoped that\nJ their wisdom and wit would be sufficient\nto make the Irish people, too, effective\npartners iu British Imperial glory.\nIt was this comprehensive character\nabout tbe British empire which, to bis\nmind, gave it Its most substantial and\npermanent claim upon the admiration\nand enthusiasm of those who were gath-\nfered there that night. They saw a peace\nful league of free communities formed\nunder tbe crown scattered all over the\nworld; they saw native races, vast dependencies, subsidiary empires, governed\nalso under the law and authority which\nemanated from this country. The British empire was a model on a small scale\nto the whole world and the union of\nthese different kindB of people under\nevery sky and clime, under such different circumstances of racial, political and\nsocial development, the union of all the'-e\nwithin one circle in friendly and peaceful co-operation, under a common head\nwas a sigh and model of what perhaps\nthey all hoped the whole world would\neorne day become, in days which they\nwould not see, but which were coming\nand towards this hapny event they might\nperhaps themselves In some degree contribute.\nThey bad had the circumstances and\nobjects of the meeting put clearly and\nforcibly before them. He thought that\nthe celebration of Montcalm and Wolfe\nand of the tercentenary of Canada on\nthe heights of Abraham was a great historical event and Oxford, which had always admired brave deeds and supported\ngreat men, would, he trusted, always\ncherish every generous force which made\nfor the unification and consolidation of\nthe British empire; and when such matters were being done on the other side\nof the Atlantic tW ought not to be\nwholly excluded from any participation\nin them. He had the greatest pleasure\nand satisfaction In seconding the resolution which the vice-chancellor had read\nand which Dr. Parkin had so eloquently\nand ably proposed.\nTHREE DEATHS\nPortland Man Kills a Woman and Her\nFriend and Then Suicides\nPORTLAND, July 20.-David Connelll,\nchief steward at the Arlington club in this\ncity; last night shot to death Mrs. Dolly.\nSharp and a' man whose name haa not yet\nbeen learned.* Connelll waa pursued to hia\nown room torn, flften or twenty squares\ndistant by a howling mob of several hundred men and boys.\nOnce ln hia room Connelll turned the key\nin the face of hla pursuers and before tbey\ncould force their way In he blew his brains\nout.\nThe cause of tbe tragedy has not been ascertained, but It Ls understood Connelll had\nbeen paying attention to the woman and\nhe became maddened with Jealousy upon\ndiscovering her In the company of another\nman.\nMONTCALM'S QRAVE\nCanada Commencing to Realize Its\nDuty to Historical Past\nThe days of celebration at Quebec are\nlikely to result In greater care being\ntaken to preserve historical places. Apparently this movement has begun, not\njust too late, as so many efforts to stay\nthe wear and tear of time have been\nmade, but at the most opportune season.\nThe house where Montcalm died at daybreak on Sept. IB, 1769, which was the\ndwelling of the old surgeon Arnoux, Is a\npossession too significant to be allowed\nto disappear. It Is worth while .keeping\nin memory such a wonderful historical\nlink as that which has come to light in\nQuebec, forming a connecting link as it\ndoes between Montcalm's day and our\nown. Montcalm was buried in a improvised grave in the Ursuline chapel\nat Quebec. No tablet was set to mark\nthe exact spot; and in 150 years there\nwas much doubt as to where his body\nhad been laid. But there Is still living in\nthe Ursuline convent at Quebec a nun\nwho is more than 90 years old. A few\nyears of her novitiate in the convent\nwere spent under tbe superiority of La\nMere de St. Ignace, The mother superior as a girl had herself stood beside the\nshallow grave into which the remains of\nMontcalm, honored of all Canadians,\nwere lowered. La Mere de St. Ignace\ntold the story and pointed out the exact\nspot where the grave was more than 70\nyears ago. The aged nun, now living\nIn Quebec, has repeated what she heard,\nshowing the spot which was shown to\nher. investigation has proved the accuracy of her recollection. The rough\ncoffin, made from the panels of an oak\ndoor, as recorded by an eye witness who\nhelped to prepare the body lor burial,\nwas found in the place pointed out by\nthe nun of the Ursuline convent. A few\nyears more and Montcalm's grave might\nnever have been identified. Canada has\nbegun to realize the richness of its historical past. We are happily in good\ntime to care for these- outward signs of\nnational honor.\nTROUBLES OF JAPAN\nChamber of Commerce Criticize Abnormal Military Expenditure\nVICTORIA, July 20.\u2014News of a remarkable interview with the Japanese\nminister of communication by a deputation from joint Japanese chambers of\ncommerce Ib given In mail advices from\nJapan. The delegation criticized the abnormal military expenditures and fi-\nnancal arrangements which they said\ncaused the great financial depression.\nThe minister of finance said existing armaments could not be reduced and regretted that Japan had not two more divisions during the recent war. This\nwould have enabled the Japanese to'\ncrush the Russians at Mukden and enabled them to secure a large indemnity,\nThe deputation said that economy was\nnecessary and the minister promised that\ntaxation would not be further increased,\nalthough existing taxation would be\nmaintained.\n_JfrmjlRE0T0RY^\nSilver King Hotel\nBAKER ST., NBLSON.\nD.

C. T. O'Hara,\nthe new deputy minister of trade and\ncommerce, left today for the Pacific\ncoast and during his trip across the continent will have an opportunity of meeting the officials of the department who\nhave charge of the enforcement bf the\nChinese Immigration Act, the Grain Inspection Act, and the payment of the\nbounty to lead industries. Mr. O'Hara\nwill remain in the west until September.\nThe following Is the speech delivered\nfrom the throne today upon the final\nadjournment of parliament:\nHonorable  Gentlemen   of  the   Senate,\nGentlemen  of  the  House  of Commons\u2014\nI am glad to be able? to relieve you\nfrom further attendance on the long\nprotracted session and I thank you for\nthe assiduity and care you have given\nto the unusually large number of Important subjects that have been submitted for your consideration. It is,\nhowever, satisfactory to note the many\nexcellent measures that have been\npassed, and which, It is hoped, will\nprove beneficial to the people of\nCanada.\nAmong other acts, attention may be\ncalled to the Manitoba Grain Act, and\nthe Grain Inspection Act, whfch, while\nprotecting the high standards of western gtafn from inferior mixtures, secures to the farmer the value attaching\nto those staudards.\nIn response to advanced public opinion, appointments and promotions in\nthe civil service will be made henceforth only after a competitive examination, in which those who excell will receive the reward of merit, and while\nthe operations of the act are limited\nto the service at the seat of government, its provisions may later on be extended .to the service througiiout the\ndominion.\nThe act revising and consolidating\nthe laws and regulations affecting the\ndisposition of public lands will, it Is\nbelieved, meet with the hearty approval\nof the western provinces more immediately interested. One of the principal features of the act is the permission\nto take up a second homestead within a\nlimited area, and also the provision for\nhomestead to acquire by purchase the\nadjoining quarter section. It Is intended that the proceeds of these sales\nshall, in the first place, he set apart as\na fund for the construction of a railway\nlo Hudson's bay.\nThe amendments to the banking act\nallowing, under certain restrictions, an\nexpansion in the circulation of notes of\nthe banks during the period of the year\nthe wheat crops are being moved, will,\nIt is considered, facilitate the quick\ntransportation of the products of the\nfarm to the markets of the world.\nImportant amendments have been\nmade to the act respecting elections\nwhich, it is confidently believed, will\nmore effectively protect the rights of\nthe voters and guard against the exercise of undue influence in electoral con-\nsts. ,\nThe proposal-to make a free grant*\nof land as a bounty to the volunteers,\nwho rendered valuable service to the\nEmpire in the South African war, will\nmeet with hearty approval.\nThe reduction of the duty on dropped\nletters in cities and certain towns, and\nthe enlargement ofl the area within\nwhich the postage on certain classes\nof newspapers may be carried free, will,\nI feel sure, be appreciated.\nThe amendment made to the Inland\nRevenue Act, where the discrimination\nagainst Canadian grown tobacco, created by distinctive labels used on cigars\nand tobacco, will no longer exist; and\nit is confidently believed that these\namendments to the act will have the\neffect of improving and encouraging\nhome-grown tobacco, and prove of great\nbenefit to that portion of our agricultural population engaged in that industry.\nThe increasing demands for improved\ntransportation facilities in a country so\nwidely extended, and so sparsely set-\ntied as this dominion, warrants public\naid in the construction of railways and\nthe experience of the past amply justifies the liberal subsidies in the act that\nhas been assented to.\nThe placing of the telegraphs and the\ntelephone systems under the jurisdiction of the railway commissioners, will\nmeet with the hearty approval of all\nclasses in the Dominion.\nThe rapidly increasing number of applications to the board of railway commissioners involves the necessity foi\nthe appointment of additional members\non the board.\nThe extension of the time for the payment of a bounty on lead ores, and the\nenlargement of the conditions of which\nthe bounty may be earned will, It Ib believed stimulate the growth of an important industry In the province of British Columbia.\nThe Issue of government annuities for\nold age will\/ It ts confidently Mjieved,\nencourage habits of thrift and economy,\nto\nW       We Ml tke Sue Ctodsftf Less None-\nOne Price far Ek-j-W* ttt That Ike Ltwest\nto\nto\nto\nto\nto\ntoto\nStora\nopeni daily\nat 8 a.**.\nMEAGHER'S\nStora\nolocoa at\n8 p.m.\nTHE BIG JULY SALE\nto   Extra Price Reductions on New Goods Today\niii\nto\nto\nto\nto\nto\nto\nMors and more people are taking advantage of thla big sa'e.

I am glad to\nknow that a satisfactory arrangement\nhas been effected, and I feel assured\nthat, the terms of the agreement will\ncontinue to be faithfully carriedl out.\nAn arrangement with regard to Immigration from India having also become desirable, a representative of the\ngovernment was sent to England to discuss the question with the authorities\nof the United Kingdom, with results\nthat promise to be entirely satisfactory.\nIn both these cases it has been the\ndesire of my government that while\ncaring properly for the interests of the\ndominion the welfare of the empire\nshould also be regarded.\nThe Gold and Silver Manufacturing\nAct will stimulate a manufacture of a\nsuperior quality of those articles composed of the precious metals, and at the\nsame time, will protect the public from\nfraudulent representations.\nThe act restraining the use of tobacco by young persons, will, it is hoped,\ncheck a growing habit that Is seriously\naffecting the health of many aCnadlan\nboys.\nWhen parliament opened in November last, a serious financial depression\nprevailed throughout the adjoining republic, the effect of which was far\nreaching, involving in a large degree\nthose countries having business relations with it. The crisis in the money\nmarket that followed, coupled with the\ndiminished value of the prairie provinces, seriously affected the yearly Increasing prosperity which Canada had\nenjoyed during the preceding years. The\nhopeful outlook for an unusually large\nsa'e of cereals, and products of the soil,\nwill, it js believed, make it the beginning of a large series of years of plenty,\nand prosperity.\nIt is gratifying to observe the patriotic enthusiasm that has been aroused,\nnot only ln all parts of the dominion,\nhut throughout the empire, at the approaching celebration of Ihe founding\nof the city of Quebec, 300 years ago, by\nthe French navigator, Samuel de Cham-\nplain. To add to the glory of the occasion, his gracious majesty, the king,\nhas delegated his royal highness the\nprince of Wales to represent him at\nthe interesting pageants that will be\npresented at tlie event The presence\nalso of representatives of France and\nthe United States at the ceremony will\nbe hailed with intense pleasure by the\npeople of Canada, aud will be accepted\nas an evidence ot friendship on the part\nof the citizens of those two great republics.\nGentlemen of the House of Commons\n\u2014I thank you for the liberal provision\nyou have made for the public service.\nHonorable Gentlemen of the Senate-\nGentlemen of the House of Commons-\nLet us earnestly hope that when we\nmeet again, the present bright prospects for a bountiful harvest In all\nparts of the dominion will have been\nrealized, prompting an additional reason for expressing our hoartfelt thanks\nto a kind providence for the many blessings we enjoy in this favored land.\nA Word With You\nJ have just received a new selection\nof English Tweeds arid Serges.
