C, Tuesday, August 4, 1903\nNo. 79\nThe Government Gives $500\nTowards ReBullding the\nBridge Street Bridge,\nMayor Burrell was prevented from\nattending the city council meeting\nlast night on account of sickness. On\nmotion of Aid. Gaw, Mr. McCallum\ntook the chair. All the aldermen\nwere present,\nA communication from E. Jacobs,\nof Greenwood, making a proposition\nto give Grand Forks and vicinity\na two-page \"write-up\" in a certain\nmining journal, was laid over for one\nweek.\nA ripple of applause was created in\nthe council chamber when the clerk'\nread a letter from Minister of Finance\nTatlow, stating that the government\nhad set as,ide $500 for the rebuilding\nof the Bridge street bridge, and that\nthe same would be forwarded on receipt of proper vouchers signed by the\nmayor and city clerk. It appears that\nthe council has put through a pretty\nclever piece of financing in this matter.\nThe government' gave $500, and the\nGranby smelter 2100, to warns the\nrebuilding of the bridge; then the\ncouncil let the contract for $575. If\nthe aldermen would only keep on building bridges, they might pay off the\ncity's bonded indebtedness before their\nterms expire.\nThe usual number of bills were ordered paid.\nAid. Gaw stated that there were\nten applicants for city water in the\nBuckle addition who would be willing\nto bear the expense of laying the pipe,\nand perform the work to the satisfaction of the city engineer, if the city\nwould deduct the cost from their water\nrates. The matter was referred to the\nchairman of the water and light committee, with power to act.\n' Similar action was taken on the application of Mr. Cameron, who made\na like proposition for water in his new\nresidence on Fifth street, near Observation mountain.\nMid. McLellan stated that the city\nowed Mr. W. K. C. Manly $30 rent\nfor the use a second-hand wagon. He\nthought it would be cheaper to buy it\noutright at $65. The chairman of\nthe board oi works was authorized to\ndo so. \u00E2\u0096\u00A0\nAid. McLellan stated that the city\nteam was having a good time at pres-\neht doing nothing, and suggested that\nit might be a good idea to put it to\nwork improving the grade on the Winnipeg avenue hill near Mr. Henderson's\nresidence. Mr. Gaw took the same\nview. The matter was left to the\ndiscretion of the chairman of the board\nof works, and as that gentleman and\nAid. McLellan are closely related,\nthe prospects of the city team idling\naway much more time ara not very\nbright.\nAid. Peterson drew attention to the\ndangerous condition of Bridge street\nniar the C. P. C. bridge. He thought\na fence should be built along the river\nbank. In the present condition of\nthe street, there was danger, on dark,\nnights or in case of runaways, of teams\ngoing over the embankment. This\nmight also happen to pedestrians. The\nmatter was discussed for some time,\nand then referred to a committee consisting of Mr. Peterson and the chairman of the board of works.\nOn motion of Aid. Gaw and Peterson, the road tax by-law passed its\nfirst and second readings.\nGrand Forks riding now leads all\nthe interior' districts, with the exceptant of Nelson, in the number of registered voters. Last night there were\n810 names on the list, 45 having been\nadded to it during the day. It is now\nconfidently expected that when the list\ncloses on the 14th inst. there will be\nnearly one thousand names on it. As\nNelson only leads by a few names at\npresent, the prediction is being freely\nmade that Grand Forks will be. the\nbanner district of the interior of the\nprovince.\nJames Addison, the cotractor, left\nlast Saturday evening for Calgary,\nwhere he will spend a week or more.\nHe was accompanied by his daughter.\nWhile picking berries on Observation mountain last Thursday evening,\nMamie Barrett, eleven-year-old daughter of Miles Barrett, foreman at the\nGranby smelter, received a vicious bite\nfrom a rattlesnake. Prompt medical\ntreatment saved her life, and she has\nnow nearly recovered her usual health.\nSome of the small children of the\nNorth addition have recently acquired\nthe habit of going berry picking,\nand at about 6 o'clock last Thursday\nevening half a dozen of them were\nbusily engaged in this pastime on the\nmountain side, which is covered with\na dense growth of vegetation and\nbrambles. Miss Barrett alarmed her\ncompanions by uttering a piercing\nscream and exclaiming that she had\nbeen bitten by a rattler. They rushed\nto her aid, and carried her to her\nfather's residence on Wellington avenue, a few hundred feet distant. An\nexamination showed a puncture below\nthe knee, and the limb began to swell\nrapidly. Liberal doses of whisky were\nadministered pending the arrival of\nDr. Northrop, who had been summoned by telephone. On reaching the\nhouse the doctor used the rapid\nmethod of laying the wound freely\nopen, cauterizing, etc., and admister-\ning antidotal remedies internally. The\npatient soon obtained relief and the\nswelling was checked within three\nhours.\nDr. K. C. MacDonald left last Saturday for Vancouver on a tjwo weeks'\npleasure trip.\nJohn Houston, president of the\nProvincial Conservative association,\nsays in the Nelson Tribune: No man\nin the province has anything coming\nto him from the Conservative party,\nleast of all Richard McBride. Premier\nMcBride and his colleagues have the\noffices, but in order to retain them\nthey must first prove that they are\nworthy of the high positions theyluue\ngained.\nLiberal associations were recently\norganized at the Nickel Plate mine\nand Princeton, as well as Camp McKinney. There are now live Liberal\nassociations at Camp McKinney, Fair-\nview, Okanagan Falls, Hedley, Nickel\nPlate, Princeton and Keremeos, so\nthat the Liberals in that district are\nwell organized. /\nThe excursion to Leon lake, which\nwill be held under the auspices of the\nlocal lodges of the I. O. O. F., Knights\nof Pythias, and the Ladies of the Maccabees, on Wednesday, the 12th inst.,\nwill undoubtedly be the biggest event\nof its kind of the season. Hundreds\nof people, young and old, will assuredly avail themselves of the opportunity of visiting the famous Washington summer resort, where over\n1000 visitors are now encamped. The\ntrain will leave here at about 6:30 or\n7:00 a.m., and the run will b > made in\nabout four hours. An- excellent program has been preqared. There . will\nbe foot races for fat men, ladies and\nchildren; boat and swimming races.\nThe prizes, some twenty-five in number, were donated by local business\nmen, and will be placed en exhibtion\nin Geo. Massie's window, Bridge\nstreet. The owners of the resort also\nprovide an excellent program. A\nFerris wheel is in operation, and a\ncelebrated diver will be engaged to\nmake a 125-foot dive into the lake.\nMayor Burrell has proclaimed the day\na civic holiday.\nMayor Burrell is confined to his\nhome, suffering from a severe attack\nof sciatica.\nJohn Houston, president of the\nProvincial Conservative association,\nhas issued an official notice fixing Saturday, August 8th, as the date of the\nholding of primaries in the Grand\nForks riding for the election of delegates for a Conservative nominating\nconvention to be held here on Saturday, August 15th, at 2:30 p.m. At\nthe various primaries the following\ndelegates will be elected: Grand\nForks, 6; Phoenix, 4; Columbia, 3;\nCascade, 1; Gladstone, 1. The primaries will be held at the above-\nnamed places.\nBorn\u00E2\u0080\u0094In Grand Forks, on Sunday,\nAugust 2, 1903, to Mr. and Mrs.\nJames A. Murray, a son.\nTomorrow, the 5th, aldermanic candidates will be nominated to fill the\nvacancies now existing in the East\nand Centre wards. Very little interest is taken in this election, and from\nall appearances a couple of dark horses\nwill take their seats at the next coun\ncil meeting.\nThe Rossland Miner (Conservative)\nsays: There are corporation influences within the Conservative party\nthat are trying to the best of their\nabilities to keep the prospector and\nthe common people out of their just\nand unquestionable rights and dispose of the East Kootenay coal lands,\nnow vested in the crown, for the sole\nbenefit of the C. P. R. or the Crow's\nNest coal monopoly.\nPhoenix Right cf Way\u00E2\u0080\u0094It is a\npopular belief that the V., V. & E.\nbranch of the Great Northern from\nGrand Forks to Phoenix will not be\nconstructed for some little time. Yet\nthe right of way agents continue to\nclose deals for pieces of property on\nthe right of way in a manner that\ngives rise to the belief that the days of\nconstruction may not be so very far\naway after all, says the Phoenix\nPioneer. About two weeks ago options were given on the Udion hotel\nproperty, owned by Joseph H. Graham; the Miners' Exchange hotel,\nowned by M. H. Roy and partner,\nand the John Riordan residence, all\nbeing in the lower end of \"the city,' at\nthe junction of Banner street and Dominion avenue, where the railway survey crosses tiie latter thoroughfare.\nThe option was for but fifteen days,\nand this week, before the time expired, a wire was received from Chas.\nA. DesBrisay, the right of way agent,\nfrom Spokane, to prepare the deeds\nfor this property, and the money\nwould be ready. While the amount\ninvolved in these deals is not made\npublic, it is understood to be in the\nneighborhood of $6000. The general\npublic will await with interest the\nnext move in this railway game, and\nsee whether James J. Hill's agents\nwill keep on buying up Phoenix\nrealty without doing something on\nconstruction account one of these fine\ndays.\nWm. Spier, chairman of the board\nof school trustees, offers a medal to the\nGrand Forks boy or girl heading the\nprovincial list of entrance pupils.\nThe Grand Forks public school will\nreopen on Monday next, the 10th\ninst.\nThe Sun will be sent to new i subscribers from now until after the election for 25 cents.\nHOTEL jUMVALS.\nYALE.\nW.

It certainly would be a most singular\nresult if Mr. Houston should be\nendorsed by his constituents, and\nMr. McBride be sustained by thc\nelection of a majority of the Conservative candidates! Verily, Mr.\nHltetori is the Joe Martin or \"bete\nnofr' of provincial Conservatism.\nHow to get rid of him is as great a\nquestion to -he Conservatives as how-\nto overcome thc Grits. Who has\nmade the mistake\u00E2\u0080\u0094Mr. McBride or\nMr. Houston? That the latter's\ncourse is more in accord with public sentiment than the former's is\nevidenced by the resolutions being\npassed by interior Conservative associations. If Mr. Houston is sustained, how will Mr. McBride and\nhis injudicious and inexpedient\npolicy, which is so diametrically\nopposite, be disposed of ? They say\nMartin was shipped to this coast in\norder to relieve the eastern Liberal\nparty of a disturbing element which\nit could not bear up under, and\nperhaps the Conservatives of this\nprovince may profit by thq lesson\nand export John to the eastern\ncoast.\nSUNSET SIGNALS\nREGISTER YOUR VOTE.\nThe political propets of Cranbrook\nclaim that 500 votes will be polled\nthere during the coming election.\nMrs. Dahl left last Saturday for\nSeattle on a visit with friends.\nF.

Should\nit continue the second furnace will\nbe blown in again in a few days.\nIn the past it has been coming by\nfits and starts. Only a steady supply will prove satisfactory.\nThe Sunset mine has been closed\ntemporarily on account of other\nmines wishing to ship to the Boundary Falls smelter. The management have therefore, decided to accept custom ores and reserve their\nown from the Sunset until the second third furuaces are blown in.\nBill White has been doing development work on his Granby and Monitor group of claims, situated on Volcanic mountain. He drove a tunnel\na distance of 60 feet, and has caught\n; what appear to be a large body of\n; pay ore with neither wall in siflht.\nThe face of the tunnel has gained a\n' depth of 57 feet. A surface showing\n1125 feet distant may yet prove to be\nthe same lead. It has been stripped\nfor a distance of sixteen feet and\nshows up good shipping ore. Mr.\nWhite thinks he has got the makings\nof a good mine.\nA party of mining men visited the\nRoderick Dhu, in Long Lake camp,\nlast week. The Roderick Dhu is under bond to Thomas McDonnell, Drl\nSimmons and other Greenwood men.\nThe party included a doctor, a dentist,\na lawyer politician, a prospector, and\na mining magnate.
