This\nleaves the real property of Sandon\nuntaxed, and wilt give the city an\nopportunity of making its own as*\nneamnnt. This should be taken advantage of, and the burden of tax\nMtion placet! entirely, or as nearly\nso as tlte law will permit, upon the\nlis re land values, exclusive of any\nimprovements. At no place anywhere Is this more inijierativc than\nin Sandon. where there is no insurance ind the man doing business has\nto take all the risk. The practice\nof building on leased ground, which\nis so common here, is another reason\nin favor of this method. Here the\nleMMee takes all risk of being burned\nand of failure in business, and the\nland owner takes no risk at all.\nWhere the land owner has built his\nown improvement* he would be bene-\ntited in the mine manner as the man\nwho has built or Is doing business on\nleased land. He would play more\nthan even, and is consequently interested in having this plan adopted.\nThe matter is one of right and just-\nticc, and no question of personal interest or delicacy bas any place In\nit. *\nLOCAL AND GENERAL\nSilver has been quoted for several\ndays at fttif.\nOre shipments from Sandon this\nweek 830 tons.\nJ.

There\nwere many striking character representations among both the ladies\nand gentlemen. Of the ladies we\ngive a partial list:\nMiss Percival wore a gown which\nconsisted entirely of Paystheaks,\nand was voted the most graceful\nskater among the ladies.\nMiss Cliffe was charming in a\nwhite gown trimmed with roses, as\nSummer.\nMiss Crandall wore a red and\nblack costume, with a big red hat\nMiss McCrae wore a bridal gown\nand veil to correspond.\nMiss Crawford was radiant in a\nScotch plaid.\nMiss McArthur's costume of black\nwith golden stars was very effective.\nMiss Bade was saintly as a nun.\nMiss Connelly as the pirate's maid\nwore a becoming gown of red.\nMiss Skinner made an irrcsistable\nBo Peep.\nMissMcDougal wore a bewitching\nmilk maid's gown.\nRobinson Crusoe Hood was by fsr\nthe most stunning looking girl on\nthe ice.\nMrs. Cooley.Mrs. Phypers and Mrs.\nSharp as the three little girls in\nblue, with gingham aprons and\nsun bonnets, were delightfully comical.\nMrs. Olson was dressed in a becoming toboggan suit.\nHoward Cameron as \"Whoa Bill,'*\nwas well impersonated.\nThe wish is generally expressed\nthat the management give another\ncarnival at an early date.\nThe Whitewater Sold.\nNegotiations for the sale of the\nWhitewater mine, pending for several months, were reported closed\nlast week. The purchasers are the\nLondon aud British Columbia Gold\nFields Company. Ltd,, the deal being\nclosed by J. Roderick Robertson,\nrepresenting thst strong English\ncompany. The Whitewater group\nwas examined several months aro\nw by S. S. Fowler, engineer for the\ncompany, and about three weeks\nago by J. D. Kendall; consulting\nengineer for the corporation. Favorable reports were sent by both\ngentlemen and an option given to\nthe London and British Columbia\nGold Fields Company, Ltd till the\n8rd inst. This was taken up by a\nrecent cash payment on account in\nKaslo. The deal is virtually a cash\ntransaction, as deferred payments\ncame in quick succession. The\nWhitewater group of four claims Is\nlocated two miles from Whitewater\nstation on the Kaslo and Slocan\nrailway. The controlling interest\n, of two-thirds was acquired several\nyears ago by J. C. Eaton, of Spokane, and W. E. Price, of Oakland,\nCal. Tbe remaining third was owned by W. E. Mann, of Spokane,\nMajor J. L. Montgomery, of New\nYork, and J. L. Retallack, of Kaslo.\nThe purchasing corporation acquires\nthe Interest of Eaton and Price. Mr.\nEaton has given personal attention\nto development of tbe claim for four\nyears.

The purchasing corporation will undoubtedly continue vigorous development of\nthe property. \t\nThe Cltu'a Reoenuea.\nTlie Mining Review, in dlscussine\nthe city's revenues, advocates petitioning the legislature to grant power\nto municipalities to tax merchandise,\npersonal property and professional\nmen, and not require the \"poor land\nowner,\" fbr whom our agricultural\ncontemporary appears to have unusual\nregard, to bear tbe burden. It is\nnot probable that the council will\nact on this advice, or if they did, is\nit likely that the provincial government would take a move which\nwould mean a step backward of\ntwenty years. It is a matter of\npride with all economic thinkers\nthat British Columbia has recognized, although it may be in only a\nlimited degree, the injustice of taxing industry and enterprise, while\nan abundant supply of revenue is\nobtainable from land'values, wealth\nunquestionably made by the community ss a whole and not by the\nindividual owner. It is plainly to\nbe seen that professional and business men pay a tax when thev\npay rent to the landlord, and to assess their stocks of merchandise or\ntheir calling is requiring them to\npay a doable tax.\nThat the council will evolve a\nmethod in due course ot time of rais\ning funds is without question, and in\nthe meantime wi!) gladly r.celve\nand consider sensible suggestions\nfrnm anv source.\nSANDON, 11. 0.\nAmarku-n Plan,tSSnparday.\nKaropean Vton. \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD*.'\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD* pet Amy.\nStrictly Strut el*.*-.\nMRS.

According to Dr. Selwyn, former director of\nthe Geological Survey of Canada, the\nwestern fields contain 41,992,0011 tons of\ncoal per square mile, and the area, with\ncoal deposits explored up to the present, consists of about 150 square miles.\nThe coal area is in. the southern part\nof the country known aa East Kootenay. The whole Kootenay district is\nbeyond the North-West Territories, extending some 300 miles north of the\ninternational boundary. East Kootenav alone is ahout two-thirds the size\nof the kingdom of Greece. Now that a\nrailroad is being pushed through this\nterra incognita, a period of great development is anticipated.\nThe coal fields are 60 miles southeast\nof Fort Steele and in proximity to\nCrow's Nest Pass. It is not unlikely\nthat in the near future a network of\nAmerican railways, like these in West\nKootenay, tapping the minini? region\nfor the benefit o tbe Great Northern\nand Northern Pacific, will traverse tbe\neastern section. The discovery of the\ndeposits occurred during the early\neighties, but it was not until 1887 that\nthe country was thoroughly prospected\nfor coal. Then the fields, covering an\narea of 150 square miles, were discovered\nThe first de|*o*>its are not far from the\nwest end of < row'-.

One (-ream,\nfrom 90 to HO feet thick, is 1,500 feet up\nthe mountain, across the face of a\nbroken sandstone cliff. Higher is another seam, erect and 80 feet wide Ten\nother broad seams are in close succession The iiniitfnt.itv of the deposit*,\ncan scarcely be realised. Of coking\ncoal their is an abundance.

Preservation of old forests, with their masses of\ndry underbrush and fire-inviting collections of dry lea ves, may be advisable\nfor some reasons. These immense\nmasses of firewood undoubtedly tend to\ncollect snow, which, bv its gradual\nmelting, furnishesa supply to the water\nreservoirs benesth the surface of the\nSround.

B. C, JAN. 29, 1896\nA rotlLHARIlV KXPKUITIUN.\nThe joint military expedition for\nthe relief of hungry gold banters at\nDawson, arranged by Hon. Clifford\nSifton on tbe part of Canada, and Secretary Gage for the United States, is\nat best a foolhardy undertaking. It\nis proposed to transport 300; 000 pounds\nof provisions, which, if all goes well\nand none of the perils of mountain\ntravel are met with, will require\n1500 pack animals and 500 men.\nSuch an expedition is almost certain\nto meet with great peril. It would\nbe difficult for such ao army of men\nand horses to travel over snow-covered mountains without causing dis-\nlodgment of the snow, and the result\nof a slide would be disastrous. However good tbe route selected may be,\nthe expedition is certain to be the\ncause of great loss of life.\nShould the party get through ssfe-\nly, which is extremely doubtful, the\nmen will have to be furnished with\nreturn transportation. Feed will\nhave to be furnished fbr them tor\nprobably 60 days. At a ration of\nfour and one halt pounds per day to\nthe man, the drivers will eat 135,003\npounds of grub, or nearly half of the\nsupplies provided. What the animals\nwill do for food or how many will survive the trip is a quandary.\nThe latest advices from Dawson\nshow there is now absolutely no need\nofthe expedition. The miners can\nworry along until the opening of\nnavigation, when thousands of tons of\nsupplies will reachvDawt_on. What\ngalls the Victoria and Vancouver\npeople is that all the goods, which\nare coming from, the states, will be\nadmitted free ol duty and are tn be\ndistributed free to the miners, meaning a corresponding displacement of\nCanadian products without any\nequivalent therefore. British Col\numbisns look upon the whole project\nas a Yankee trick designed to cripple\nCanadian trade with the new gold-\nfields, and to foster the Impression\nthat the Klondike is in Alaska Mr.\nSifton's concession Is in striking contrast to the action of the American\ngovernment, which in. 1870 refused\npermission to tbe Chicora. with the\nRed River expedition under Lord\nWolsley, to pass throagh the Soo\nCanal, necessitating the portaging of\nmen and supplies on the Ontario side\nof the river.\nMININCT CORPORATIONS.\n* i i\nThe work of incorporating provincial companies under the guise of\nmining concern)-, goes merrily on.\nThey are all covered by much the\nsame stereotyped form of charter\nunder which they msy run any kind\nof enterprise from a railroad to a\npawnshop. It is doubtful whether\nthe statute book of any other British\noolony would permit the incorporation of such a comprehensive \"Jack\nof all-trades\" gang of concerns under\nthe masquerading, title of mining\ncompanies. An incorporated company should be strictly limited to one\ndefined pursuit, and the neglect o\nthis wholesome rule will surely yield\na plentiful crop of trouUe in tbe near\nfuture. One of the first acts of the\ncoming session of the Legislature\nshould be to pass legislation to meet\nthis evil, based upon British law.\nLONDON PHOMOTKRS.\nBl'tlLB BONO.\nThe splendor fall* ou email*- walla\nAnd mowy wnmmtt* old In sbwt:\nThe Ions lUtht nhakea arrow tbe lakca,\nAnd th*,* wild cataract jWim in gtot*.\nBlow, bog**, blow, art ttw wild \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BDrao*M lying.\nBli-w,lMct(r;aiwwer.-wlrr>>*>>a,dyliitf.dvla-f. -sygsszz v\nKuanUn Caviar*\nHamlmrjr K*| In J\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BDH\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\nAnchovy I'aM*\nHhrim-r Wmate\nVatee At Wont Vim*\nWat* d* Wok**, 0-jSt Tout.\nt'\" iad Mr-ata at -It -itwi.\n(Tlaml'lMi-nlrr\nWmnry Hl\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD>- Vdot 'iirJrn\nCalifornia A*i*nr\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD*oi* extern tin* -Air, 1 Yr*t,.>.\n,.-r\.-j.-a.mj.\nmt*U CtauilWH-,\nSalad t'ir\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD.|n(r\nHrT^tirallt'tiiitiwr*/\nlttH-a(.|i|<\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD <\"lWar\nElam Qif\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BDm\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\nUmlrtrr**\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BDr t \ie.*e\nFn.tn.IKe oV Kr\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD|i.r*'\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD.rt I 'lire**.\nVteme qV Ikl<< (lu****\nMarLan-ii'n Im-atrlal ttwwa* tall\nWttoeb t'r-jmrrd Muatanl\n**o* cruel chain'*,\nPur-gut ia\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BDr aorrewa aad tbalr fjabta;\nfar \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BDi jlblnff ptoamtw mad* Ufa arem\n' borMrom and a happy dream.\nIda aaajerert him. and oft ha awore\nhirly rond thai newr aa*re\njiahl ah\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BDdt-ftac* bar priaotly Una\nly carina; for Mrh wretch-ad awln*--\ntot au hia tort* he crar ,-altt*d\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\nlllnd. aTuirlua atait by Mm enthralled,\nma day, waea atridlua ap tha path\nMob to the foeat M.
