The true wealth of Canada consists less in the abundance of our material possessions than iii these moral qualities and habits of\nthought which have come down to us as an inheritance\nfrom the past. In the new period of expansion which lies\nbefore us, it is our highest duty to conserve this\ninheritance for the benefit of those who will some day\nstand, in our places.

Their forwards were in surprisingly good form\nand combined much better than the home boys, while their\ndefence men were the more tenacious and purposeful. Ross-\nland's real weakness lay in its defence, despite the fact that\nPratt was quite the most dangerous Rossland player.\nEFENCE DEAR\nThe home defence allowed itself to be penetrated several\ntimes and permitted the visitors many shots at Palfrey that\nm goalie should not have been (\t\nLied on to save.

In criticism of the\nRossland hockey team at Monday's\nmeeting.\nKindly publish this signed letter, as\nIt ls the desire of the Rossland hockey\nteam and the Rossland citizens that the\npublic should be acquainted with facts\nnot referred to in the unsigned letters\npublished by your paper. It is further\nthe desire of the Rossland officials and\ncitizens that hockey should be played as\na scientific, athletic game rather than\nas a slugging competition, which has\nbeen the case In the two league games\nplayed this season.\nMAIMING\nCROSS-CHECKING\nAt Monday's meeting, and after eight\nminutes of play. Norris, captain of the\nRossland club, decided to take the Rossland team off the Ice rather than have\nthem cut up and crippled by the cross-'\nchecking and slugging of several members of the Nelson team. Norris was\nfinally persuaded by Managers Hunter\nof Rossland and Pelletler of Nelson to\ncontinue.\nWe class cross-checking as practiced\nby Sid Deslreau, holding stick firmly ln\ntwo hands and forcing it against the\nthroat and face, as a dangerous and foul\n\u2022check. This form of check was made\nhy Deslreau against Lauriente when\nknocked out, and very nearly put him\nout of the game.\nPelletler, the playing captain of the\nNelson team, hammered Dewar on the\nback of the head with his stick while\nhe was lying face down on the Ice, and\nalso endeavored to malm Lauriente by\nkicking with his skates. Waiman of\nNelson slashed the Rossland goalie, Palfrey, over the head, which might easily\nhave proved the most serious accident\nof Monday's sluggin? match.\nTACTICS INFLAMED\nPASSION\nThe killing knockout tactics employed\nby the Deslreaus and Pelletler from thc\nopening of the play were bound to inflame the temper of the Rossland players, and if these men had played clean\nhockey no trouble would have developed\nI as till Uie Rossland hockey team was\ngiven orders not to retaliate. The .greater part of this was done behind the\nreferee's back.\nIt is reported that Sid Deslreau made\nthe statement that he wan out to get\nNorris and Dewar of the Rossland forward line. If Buch a report were true.\nlt would account for much.\nWARREN CROWE.\nO. E. HUNTER.\nL. W. NORRIS.\nREGINA.

M D. Wyatt, ln command of the British steamer Innerton,\nthat delay wu being caused to vessels\nIn receiving grain oargoee at the port\noi Vancouver, were denied today by\npert officials, who declared that all\ngrain loading ships are granted berthing at the elevators by the port war\n\u25a0den's certificate given the vessel en\nentering the harbor.\nCaptain Wyatt who with 20 other\nehip masters were guests of a Ki-\n\u25a0wanls club luncheon, in the course of\nnls remarks, made the statement that\n\"there are a mighty lot of masters\nwho do not think the way grain elevators are now being managed ls an\nimprovement over the old system.

This sort of thing Is going to\ngive th* port a bad name,\"\nCRITICIZES\nFCMIOATION\nCaptain Wyatt criticized the local\niumlgatlon system, declaring \"the way\nfumigation of vessels ls Handled ls, as\nfar as we are concerned, scandalous.\nWe do not kick at fumigation, but at\nthe delays. Some ships have been delayed over two days awaiting fumigation. Today, figuratively speaking, we\nhave to go on our hands and knees\nto get a birth. This delay may mean\na ship losing its charter.\"\nCommenting on Captain Wyatt's criticism. Dr. H. P. Cox, fumigation offi-\nII -cer, stated, that arrangements for docking any vessel were in the hands of the\nship's agents. \"We are willing to undertake fumigation of a ship as soon\nas she presents herself for that purpose. The trouble has been there is\nlittle accommodation for the Bhips to\ndock for this purpose,\" he said.\nArmour Issues Heavily Bought;\nSt Paul Issues Make\nNew Highs\nWinnipeg Grain\nWHEAT\u2014 Open High Low Close\n\u2022>\u00ab 13054 130% 130Vi 130%\na*>V 186y, 136V4 136% 136\nJMly 135% 135*,', 136% 135%\n04TB\u2014\nOk 60%. 60% 60% 60%\nMay 63% 63% 63% 63%\n\u2022July 62% 62% 62% 62%\nBARLEY\u2014\n\"\u00ab 84% 84% 83% 83%\nMay \u2014 \u00bb71t, 871* 87% 87%'\nJuly 86% 85% 86*\/, 86%\nJ-LAX\u2014\nDec 178% 178%\nMay 186 186% 186 186%\n'\u2022\"\"ly 188% 188% 188% 188%\nHT*\u2014\n*\u2022*\u00ab 102% 102% 102% 102%\nMay 107% 107% 107% 107%\nCASH WHEAT\u2014No. 1 northern 138%.\nIfo. 2 northern 133%, No. 3 northern\n1M\u00bb.
