Frank Oliver, ex-minister of the interior, that\nhis contention, submitted to. the board\nin a letter, that his statements in (he\nh'OUse of commons that the population\nof Kootenay had decreased and that\nIt was less than 10 years ago wore\nborne out by census figures, was Incorrect. \u201e\nWhen It. F. Green, M.P., wns in Nelson recently thc executive of thc Conservative association took up with\nhim tlie question of thc establishment\nof rural mall delivery along the west\narm, said J. I*;. Annuble, who brought\nthis matter to the attention of the\nboard. The member for Kootenny had\npromised to do all In his power to secure the service and had suggested\nthat data as to the number of settlers\nand the mileage should be secured, and\nMr. Annabie suggested that a committee should be appointed to lake up this*.\nAt the usual rate of pay a mail carrier between Nelson and Balfour would\nreceive $100 per month, auld Mr, Annabie, who thought that ri man who\nnlso handled parcels and express packages could make a living out of tbe\nwork. The board appointed Mr, Annabie a committee to report as ta the\nnumber of settlers and tb secure the\nother necessary Information. '**\nTo Hold Business Locally\nIn moving a resolution urging on\nthe provincial government to pass an\nact which would prevent Insurance being placed with companies which\nwere not registered cither In British\nColumbia or with the Dominion, and\nwhich would make Invalid policies\nwhich \"were not signed or countersigned by a British Columbia nsent,\nC. F. McHardy contended that such\nprovisions would protect the insurer\nagainst whilt be described as \"underground\" companies* who were not registered In tlio province and from which\nlosses could not bo collected\nBritish Columbia court and also that\nthoy would conserve for the Insurance\nagentB of this province the business\nWhich was rightly theirs, The resolution was not iiinied at lho non-board\ncompanies and would nol affect rales,\nbe said.\n^Ald, W, M. Cunliffe thought that\nsuch a resolution, coming from insurance agents, might be regarded by tlie\npublic wlib suspicion. It might be\n(bought that the. board companies\nwished to strengthen a monopoly by\npreventing outside competition which\ntended to keep the rates down.\nMr. McHardy explained that the\nIdea of the resolution was to prevent\npersons or companies residing in British Columbia from Insuring with thc\nhead olliccs of insurance companies,\nwith the result thnt Insurance agents\nin British Columbia did not receive tho\ncommission to which they were entitled. Such legislation as that proposed had been put into force in other\nprovinces and in many of the states\nand had proved effective In conserving\nlocal buslnes for the local man, he declared.\nShould Extend Plan\nR. W. Hinton smilingly observed\nthat ho thought tbo idea was a good\none,1 and that it should be extended to\nplhcr businesses, forcing mining companies, for instance, to purchase their\nmachinery through a British Columbia\nagent.\nHugh VV. Robertson supported tho\nresolution and pointed out that a person Insuring wltb a United States\ni company which was not registered in\nj this province could only compel pay-\ni ment by appealing to the courts south\n; of tho line. Such companies could not\ncanvas for business in the province,\nI but could write insurance by mail, he\nsnld. Companies licensed In British\n' Columbia had to put up bond:, with the\n1 government to protect tho Insure;-\nagainst loss and consequently had to\nphargo higher rates than tha \"underground\" companies from the outside.\nHo explained that the resolution had\n| been prepared as the result of a meet-\n', ing of local board agents who had\ntaken steps with a view to a reduction\nrates which hnd resulted In the\nmainland board of lire underwriters\nBULLET CUTS SI\nROBBER'S CAREER\nOna Killed Another Captured in Fight\nWith Police\u2014Bandit* Murdered\nHotelkeeoor\n(Ttv TmVv Nf>wa leaned Wfr\u00ab.i\ntJANTBVBR, Germany, Kept. 11.\u2014\nTho carer of the Hamburg iiulomubili\nbandits who looted the Communal\nsavings bank at Wllhemsburg after\nshooting tho cashier dead was checked early today at ostexode, 50 miles\nfrom this cily.

In addition lo these\n95 fires, which called for llic employ\nment of men to fight ihem, In thi\nneighborhood of 500 outbreaks were\nprevented by patrol men. who discovered them in time to prevent\nspreading.\nTlio past season's record is considered particularly satlsfaclory by Mr.\nRosb, as there were L80i) milt's of\nrailway construction in progress In\nthe province, work which Is known to\ncarry with it great danger of outbreaks of forest fires. From fires originating along this LSOii miles of\nconstruction tbo total area of forest\nburned over was only about three\nsquare miles.\nMany Men Employed.\nForest fire funds, contributed to\nequally hy the lumbermen and the\ngovernment, totalled this year $:U4*\n000, and 115 men were employed regu\nlarly by the government. Of this number 250 were paid out of the forest\nprotection fund and the balance out\nof the general revenue of the province,\ntho latter'aiding In gonoral forest\nwork. Railways employed 00 patrolmen, who worked under tbe Instructions of the government officials. At\na few moments' notice 100 additional\nmen could have been thrown Into the\nfield of operations if they had been\nrequired provision having been made\nto secure tills number.\nThis year has been inaugurated the\npollcv of building up a permanent\nforce of forestry protection officials,\ntho training of these men being directed In the first place toward tho\nprevention of outbreaks and in the\nsecond place to eo arranging patrols\nthat a fire will he discovered at the\nearliest poggjble moment after Its inception in order that it may be extinguished before it has spread to dangerous proportions. The idea of the\nminister is to secure a permanent\nforce of efficient foresters who by remaining on the staff will become year\nafter year better equipped to protect\ntbe timber wealth of the province from\nfire. There is no such permanent forest protection service In any other\nprovince in Canada.\nBuild Trails and Telephones.\nTn tbe neighborhood of 190.000 remains in this year's fire protection\nfund, and during the fall a large num-*\nber of trails and telephone Iinea will\nbe constructed. All these are designed\nfor the purpose of providing ft means\nof communication with large areas of\nvaluable timber which Is at present\npractically Inaccessible.

There were no court\nproceedings. Thaw's arraignment is\nbeing put off by mutual consent until\n10 o'clock tomorrow morning and\nThaw's lawyers, apparently thinking\nhim saTer ln tbo custody nf tbe sheriff\nthan nt large, abandoned their attempt, to release him on a writ of\nhabeas corpus.\nGuards Increased.\nThe guards about Thaw's hotel were\nIncreased tonight from 12 to 20 All\nweie armed and under tbe direction\nof Chief of Police Charles Kelly.

Doherty, the acting minister of the interior, and the authorities of the immigration department aro not disposed\nto regard with any seriousness the allegations made by counsel for Harry\nThaw and in anonymous interviews,\ndeclaring the deportation to be an outrage of justice and contempt and defiance of the court of King's bench\nof Quebec, That they should feel sore\nabout, the unexpected development Is\nreadily understood, but the charge of\ncontempt Is declared to be wholly wide\nof tlie mark.\nThe position taken by Mr. Doherty\nis that no order of any court or any\njudge either restrained him or purported to restrain him from acting as hn\ndid. Sitting himself in appeal from\nthe direction of the hoard of inquiry,\nho confirmed that body's action in tho\nease, and when this is done the law\nsays the rejected persons shall be deported forthwith.\nAs was pointed out by the minister\nyesterday, the writ of habeas corpus\nwns directed to tbo inquiry board. It\ndid not say that the minister was enjoined from ptirformlng his official\nfunction. It. is doubtful if anv court\nwould do that, 1ml if it did Us authority would, of course, be respected.\nIn a nutshell it appears that Thaw's\nlawyers aimed their restraining or prohibitive writ only at subordinates\nwithout attempting tn similarly prevent the superior authority from exercising those powers which under the\nact are mandatory.\nIt Is not intended to ignore the further proceedings. When the caso\ncomes up in court, on Monday, counsel\non behalf o.f tlte immigration officers\nwill explain why tho production of\nThaw is not possible and the department is confident of its ability to fully\njustify tlie action it has taken.\nFIFTY THOUSAND DOLLARS\nSTOLEN FROM TRAIN\nSAVANNAH, Georgia, Sept. ll.\u2014\nFifty thousand dollars in transit-, from\nChase National Bank of Ncw York to\nthe Savannah Bank &.

The wheat yield\nwill be the best the country ever had.\nIn quantity it mny Hot greatly, If tit\nall, exceed the wheat yield of lust\nyear, but it will grnde to a much higher average or quality. This Is a Rood\nyear for wheat. All the countries\nwhose harvest. Is reaped in the third\nquarter of the year have fine wheat\ncrops. It Is estimated that t'anad;\nwestern wheat crop will amount to\nabout 200,000,000 bushels, that th\nwheat crop of the United States wil!\namount to about 700;000,000 bushels\nand that of Russia to, 800,000,000 bushels. Argentina, whose harvest comos\nearlier in the year, had a good yield.\nThe world's total wheat crop will ba\ngreater this year than it ever was before, aggregating about 4.000,000,000\nbushels.\nOf Itself such an enlarged supply\nwould raise expectations of a fall in\nprice, says the Toronto Mail and Empire. If there were a fall in price\nCanada's large and excellent wheat\nyield might bring a smaller money re\nturn than the lesser crop of two years\nago. But there are other Influences\nbesides tlie quantity of wheat that exert a force In determining the price of\nwheat. One of these is the corn crop.\nThis year the corn crop or the United\nStates, the great corn-producing country of the world, will he seven or etghl\nhundrd million bushels less than it\nwas last year. As corn nowadays i*=\nlargely drawn upon as a foodstuff for\nhuman beings, the shortage Is certain\nto have Bome effect to raise the pric*\"-\nof food. It would appear as if the\nIncreased yield of wheat this year\nwould not much more than make Up\nfor the decreased yield of corn, anJ\nthat, therefore, the price of wheat\nmight be maintained. Our western\nfarmers are likely to get as large n\nmoney return for their wheat crop of\nthis year as they got for that of last\nyear. This favorable outlook for the\nwheat grower Is not promising for a\nlowering ot tbe cost of living for Uu\nwheat consumer. Indeed, the corn\nshortage and tbe almost absence of\nInferior wheat prepare us to expect a\nfurther falling off In the number of\ncattle fattened thiB winter. It looks,\ntherefore, as if beef and other meats\nmight be higher than ever.\nOn the country's welfare as a whole\nthe effect of the fine grain crops haa\nalready proved very telling for good.\nIt has silenced the pessimists, has put\nnew confidence in our business men,\nand has caused a Blackening of British\ninvestors' purse strings in favor of\nCanadian security Issues. The new\ncrop Is giving a new push forward to\nthis great country.\nNa-Dru-Co laxatives\nare different in that they\ndo not gripe, purge nor\ncause nausea, nor does\ncontinued use lessen their\neffectiveness.

Nor would the rasli\njudgment be ventured that their de\ncision must operate to the disadvantage of the common interest of the\nempire.\nNew Zealand, however, ns an Australasian state Is by no means unwilling to co-operate with its big brother\nin the arrangement of matters of Joint\nadvantage. The Dominion and tho\nCommonwealth have both old age pension schemes and an agreement was\nrecently reached providing for reciprocity in their administration. The\nbill embodying the arrangement waB\nintroduced In the end of July in the\nNew Zealand legislature, and It practically provides that the requisite residence in any part of Australasia will\nentitle nil persons to pensions In that\nstate where they have resided for 1J\nmonths before making application.\nNew Zealand's proportion of the cost\nis one-seventh, irrespective of tho\nlength of residence.

We haven't noticed\nthe exodus here, but It is just possible\nthat we are so close to the vortex of\ntilings that a few details of tin* swiftly moving panorama of human events\nhave escaped the home folks. Still we\nare reluctant to put too much credence\nIn the story. We know our stenographers too well.

The type\nand general appearance may be good,\nthe temperament and disposition may\npromise fair results, but the real value\nof each one Is to be measured actually\nand practically by Just her individual\nyield, not the average of the herd as a\nwhole, at the end of. a full season's\nwork.\nOver and over again when dairy\nfarmers have cheeked up the production separately of each cow there have\nbeoh found wonderful surprises nnd\nserious disappointments. Those \"good\nlookers\" have turned out to he poor\nproducers; the despised cow of insignificant appearance bas often proved\na splendid money-mnker when her\nmoderate cost of feed has been deducted from the large total yield of\nmilk and fat. Some cow testing figures recorded by tbe dairy division,\nOttawa, show great contrasts. For Instance, two cows yielding the same\nweight of milk may differ in production of fat by 17;i pounds of fat. Two\ncows tho same ago may differ In profit by -SLTt.OO. The aged cow may do\nfar better than lbe five-year-old. Two\nmaturo cows In the same herd have\nbeen known to differ In production by\n8000 pounds of milk.

For over 20 years a glacier\nof solid lee existed there, and remained visible when the snows on. adjoining peaks had mejled nnd disappeared\nbeneath thc rays of the summer sun.\nThe remarkable absence of the white\nspot on the lofty peak whieh has always been such, a familiar and notable\nsight, visible many miles distant, has\ncreated much interest.\nThe summit of Mount Rose bas for\ntho last few years been the scene of\nvalued experimental work by govern'\nment officials and professors of thi\nUniversity of Nevada, In determining\nellmatological causes nnd: offects as\nrelntes to melting snow and rainfalls,\nwhich fact hns drawn particular attention to that peak and its ever-present\nspot of snow..\nsending a representative to make a\nre-rating of the cily.\nThe legislation proposed would not\nralBe rates, averred T.

Cunliffe objected to the board\nvoting on the resolution becauise it\nhad come from the Insurance men rather than from the public and there\nwero too many Insurance men present,\nhe said. He thought that It was for\nthe insurance agents to combine and\nforce their companies to pay them\ncommission on all business originating\nin their territory, a plan which was\ncustomary lu other businesses. Fred\nA. Starkey was also opposed to passing the resolution without further\nconsideration.\nAn amendment by W, H, Jones and\nR. W.

Labor\nhad increased -10 per cent and food\nand supplies :55 per cent In 10 years,\nhe said while the expenses of the\nlumbermen were further increased by\ntho fact that logs had to he hauled\na greater distance than a decade ago.\nThe board passed a resolution, moved by Aid.

You are\nprobably aware that while figures do\nnot. lie they can be go adjusted as\nto prove anything.

K.

The reports\nthat Sir'Oliver Lodge in bis inaugural\naddress bffore the British Association\nat Birmingham on Wednesday night\nwould grt further than he had ever\ngone before in putting forth bis belief\nIn the possibility of communication\nby the spirits of departed with this\nworld, and that his remarks would-be\nIn the nature of a reply to tbe mil-*\nterlulltUle argument with which i'r\u00bbr\nKdward Albert Schaefer opened the\nlast congress, served to kindle general Interest to a remarkable degree.\nThe address, although It did not\nquite come up to expectation! as a sensational pronouncement, has been the\nsubject of broad discussion among\nthe scientists who listened to It and\nothers who have read the full reports,\npublished in the large papers,\nThe address is being widely discussed. The Times, under the heading \"The New Agnosticism,\" says:\n\"The whole discourse is a protest\nagainst urmgunce. In recent years\nscience has been asserting its claims\nagainst a dogmatic theology. perhaps some over-assertion was neces.\nsiiry, but over-asserting there certainly was. The public woke to tint!\nthat they hnd only exchanged one\npriesthood for another. The laws of\nscience were more sacrosanct than\nholy writ. Nothing which could not be\nweighted or measured was allowed any\nValidity, In* the mildest form this\nbigotry called itself agnosticism.\"\nThe Times concludes: \"By natural\ntransition; sir Oliver Lodge passes on\nfrom existence In this world lo lis\ncontinuity hereafter and tn ihe question of immortality. Quietly, but firmly he made his profession of fnith In\nthe persistence of personality beyond\nbodily death, of which he hus been\nconvinced by strict evidence and in\nthe broad irutb of religion. An impressive close wns thus made to a line\neffort\u2014one more consonant\u2014we believe, with the present trend of advanced thought than repugnant to 11.\"\nThe Dally Telegraph says: \"If there\nIs a constant and idem leal personality\nrunning through one's experiences, we\nget a fair definition of whut a soul\nmeans as distinct from Its material\nembodiment. We arc guided by the\npresident of the association from a\ndiscussion of atoms and ether, electricity and radiation up to that final\nhypothesis which seems so astounding to the judgment of ordinary men\nof the world, that the dead can communicate witin the living.\"\nTiie Dally News says: \"It Is probable that his conscience will be challenged as building too vast a structure upon unproved speculations, but\nnone will deny ,the force of his protest\nagainst the negations of science, or\nthe validity of.hls appeal to the primal\nInstincts and Intimations of men in\nall ages and all lands.\"\nNEW HIGH LEVELS\nREACHED IN MONTREAL\nCBy Dally News Leased Wire.)\nMDNTIlMAU Hept, IL\u2014With the\nrecent upward tendency continued on\nthe local market today, assisted by\nthe strong tone prevailing In New\nVork, leading issues scored new high\nlevels for tiie \"-movement, notably\nMontreal Power, C, P.

Aside from over-produq-\nMon in Itrltlsh Columbia, the determining factor as to lho price obtained\nhas 'been the vast importations' into\nthe prairie provinces, which is our\nsole market, or idmuor from the\nt'n'ted States, owing lo lack bt pro*\nteeth \u25a0\u2022 of the Canadian market.

Identical royalties\nshould i,e payable, grade fnr grade,\non mountain and coast timber. We\nare Stronsly of th,. opinion that the\nmajor portion of any Increase In royalty charges should lie upon No. |-\nor the highest grade of logs, and tha1\nNo. 2 logs should heir an increase on\na ratio of no per ;ent of an Increase\non No. 1 logs, and that No. 3 bigs,\nupon which (here lias never hern anj\nprofit in manufacture, should bear no\nincrease whatever during tho entire\nperiod.\n\"Should tho decision of the government bu againsi grading logs for royalty purposes, then\u2014owing to the Inferiority of mountain timber ti*> compared to coast timber, and owing tt\nthn very unjus1 inequality now existing in the matter of ground rentals\nand fife guarding charges\u2014that mouftr\ntain timber should lie required to pay\nroyalty on the basis of one-third less\nof that chargeable, upon coast timber\n\"We believe the period for fixer7\nroyalties hnd rentals 8h\u00bbuld be a I\nleast 30 years, for th,, reason that\nunder existing conditions It Is absolutely Impossible for manufacturers\nto obtain any financial assistance upon their timber resources o'Wlntj i<\nthe luck of slnbllity as to carrying\ncharges and royalties.
