He was dismissed\nfrom tlie public service. Thlelkuhl\nhas now issued a signed statement alleging that the man who was really\nraising the filibustering company was\nWebster Davis, then Assistant Secretary of the Interior, and that, Thlelkuhl himself was merely a mask for\nDavis. It was not until lifter th\nicheme had failed that MBj^JPfs uvm\nto the Transvaal to- lA\nConditions there for hiuisl\nThlelkuhl asserts thiiTSsii'.' liavis.\nhaving learned that he was a Boer\nsympathizer, sent for him and proposed that Thlelkuhl should insert an\nadvertisement in the Washington pa-\ntiers in Thlelkukl'8 name, asking for\n\"able-bodied men with military experience to go to the Transvaal.\"\nDavis, of course, was Thiclknhl's SU-\npeiior officer at that time.

Thlelkuhl\nobeyed, he says, and continued to receive applications, getting about Hill)\npersonal applications from restdentsof\nthe District of Columbia alone, besides letters.\nOn December :.', 1800, he says, tlie\nAssistant Secretary Informed him that\nhe, Davis, had concluded to go to\nSouth Africa himself, \"in it was necessary foi him to sec President Kruger, so as to arrange for the payment\nand shipment of men who had applied\nto us. Also to secure payment for liis\ntime and expense, all of which I have\nno doubt he succeeded in doing.\"\nThlelkuhl concludes:\n\"My understanding with Mr. Davis\nwas that he was to see that I and all\nthe men that went to South Africa\nwere to be well paid, and that we\nwere to have shares set aside for us ill\ntlie Klmborley diamond fields as well\nas receiving other compensation and\nexpenses, but I have never received\nany Compensation from Mr. Davis or\nany Other person for my services and\nexpenses ill connection with this matter, which were considerable Mr.\nDavis having kepi none of the promises lie made to me. Mr. Davis expected lo receive a large sum of money\nfrom President Kruger for our ser\nvices in the Doer cause and 1 presume\nhis expectations were realized. I have\nwrtten him more than twenty letters\nsince December 2, 1800, when 1 last\nsaw him iu Washington, and since his\nreturn to this country, but I have not\nseen him nor heard from him iu any\nway since.\n\"I believe that the Hoers are prolonging the war at the present time\non tlie strength of representations and\npromises made to President Kruger\nby Mr. Davis of tlie sympathy and assistance of the United states if Bryan\nshould be elected.

Maodonald the name of \"Old Tomorrow.\" They are more Complimentary to the son, whom they cull\n\"The Man Who Keeps His Word.\" It\nis high praise, and no one deserves it\nmore than Mr. Hugh dolin Maodonald, the man who is resigning the\nPremiership of Manitoba to throw in\nhis fortunes with tlie Federal Opposition. The people of Canada admire n\nman who keeps his word. Too many\nof our politicians arc so much given\nto expediency that they will keep a\npublic pledge or promt 0 only when it\ndoes not prove inconvenient to their\nown or their party's advantage, Mr.\nMaodonald was never known to break\nhis word, lie goes on the principle\nthat u public man should be honest\nwith the people; that lie should make\nno pledge he does not intend to carry\nout, and that when once made it be\nregarded as sacred.\nMr. Macdonahl is now making a\ntour of the Eastern Provinces in company with the leader of the Opposition, and everywhe a he is hailed as\nthe man who keeps his word. 'The incident to which he chiefly owes this\ndistinction occurred in connection\nwith the question of prohibition in\nManitoba, lie is not himself a prohibitionist, and be has been honest\nenough to so declare himself whenever\nthe occasion made it necessary. Manitoba had twice voted on prohibition.\nund both times In favor of it by ovcr-\nwhelmnlng majorities. There could\nhe no doubt lis to the desire of the\npeople in regard to that question. At\nn convention of the Conservative party\nto formulate a pol'.cy in opposition to\nthe Groenuny Government this matter\ncame up, and it was decided to embody iu the pany platform a promise\nthat if returned to power they would\ngive prohibition to the extreme limit\nof the Provincial ju Isdlctiou, As\nleader of the pari.v..Mr. Maodonald expressed the opinion that the people\nwho had twice voted for it we -c entitled to this measure of respect for\ntheir convictions, lie would say that\nmuch, although not himself a poblbl-\ntionist. It was suggested that the\nparty might adopt it as part of their\nplatform, hut that in ease of victory\nat the polls it need not he strictly adhered to; that.in fact, the party could\ntrifle with the question as Sir Wilfrid\nLaurier and Mr. Green way hud done.\nTo this Mr. Macdonalil stoutly demurred, vowing that if adopted and\nthey were successful lie. as leader.\nwould feel himself iu honor hound to\nimplement the promise. And implemented it was. as is now well known.\nThe people gave Mr. Macdonahl a\nmajority, and Mr. Macdonahl has\ngiven tiie people the prohibition\npromised them,\nHe kept his word. He was doubtful of the wis.loin of such legislation;\nbut the people demanded it and the\nparty whose leader he was agreed to\ngive it. ami rather than break the\npromise to which he was thus committed he would retire from public\nlife. He would not trifle With tlie\npeople who trusted him. Such is his\nrecord, and it is little wonder he is\nbeing received with honor wherever\nhe appears. Canada would be blessed\nin such a leader, and the holiest and\nsincere of both parties will hope that\none day he may sit highest in power\n\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BDt Ottawa and continue to he ae-\ncluimeil the man who keeps his word.\nThe Coast newspapers that are so\ngleefully demanding to know wdio\nwould wish to return to the disastrous\nfinancial conditions of the lust years\nof Conservative administration might\ninfer from a study of the Hgures that\nthere are many who would he glad to\ndo so. The total Federal expenditure\nfor the fiscal year ending .lime, 1896,\nwas 841,702,383. Sir Wilfrid Lauricr thought this was much larger than\na country like Canada could aitord,\nand promised if returned to power to\nreduce it by three or four millions.\nThe expenditure for the year ending\nlast ,I line was 853,718,810. instead\nof a reduction of three or four millions, the Liberals have increased it\nby over eleven millions. They lire not\nmen who Itccp their word.\nDuring the four years they have\nbeen in power the Liberals never\nmoved a hand to relieve the lend industry of Hritish Columbia. Now\nthat the elections are coming on, we\nshall probably have a promise that if\nagain returned they will clap a heavier duty on lead products imported\nfrom abroad, and thus give a measure\nof protection to the industry that\nwill insure its prosperity. Hut we\nhave seen what a Liberal promise is\nin their treatment of the Chinese\nquestion. Throughout all Hritish Columbia they are known as men who\ndo not keep their word.\nSoo Line\nFAMOUS\n(imperial Liinifcei.\nBBBVIOE\nEast and West\nFirst Class Sleepers on all trains from\nAltllllWMKAIl ANIl KillITKNA VLANIIi.NO\nTourist Ours pass Medicine Hat\ndaily for St. Paul) Saturdays for\nMontreal and Huston; Mondays and\nThursdays for Toronto, Same cars\npass Revelstoke one day earlier,\nCONNECTIONS.\n7:10 Lv Nelson Ar 10:X>\n[6:80 Lv Nelson Ar LS:lfi\nMorning train daily for und from\nRossland, and for Revelstoke, main\nline and 1'ucilic ('oust.\nAfternoon train daily for and from\nRossland, and from Revelstoke, main\nHue and I'aeilie Const, and daily\n(except Suudiiy) for und from Boundary points.\n7:80 Lv 1 N . ,.

The Workings consist of a shaft and Two\nTunnels, driven to tap the ore body on three separate and distinct veins. No. 1\nTunnel on this vein is in over too feet, and No. :> Tunnel on this vein has\nreached a depth of 11 2 feel, with three and one-half feet of shipping ore in\nsight, and forty feet of the ledge to cross-cut. The ore is identical with the\nLe Roi ore, the High-Grade Gold-Copper Ore of the camp. The No. 3 Vein\nhas been opened in five places for 2,000 feet, which dips to the I. X. L. adjoining, which is now shipping the highest grade ore in British Columbia. Several\nbuildings arc on the ground, with two blacksmith shops and large boarding\nhouse, etc., with water and timber in abundance.\nOur assays have averaged from $5.00 to $800 in Gold. Copper and\nSilver; and the shipping facilities are the best. The Great Northern Railway\nruns three times through the ground, three smelters close at hand, and reduced\ncharges of $4.50 per ton for shipping and smelting, and we are now ready to\nstart shipping ore.\nThe shares in this Company have been strictly pooled, and we will issue\nPooled Receipts only until the Pool is dissolved. We need money, and will\nsend you 100 shares for $7.00, 1.000 for $00.00, 5,000 for $275.00, and 10,000\nfor $500.00. Address\nJAMES LAWLER, Managing Director,\nBOX 645, ROSSLAND, B.
