For years the delays occurring at the Vernon customs . have baen'a soiuce of annoyance and loss to those resident\"in this portion of the district. \" Goods are shipped from points across the line, and as a rule they generally get as far as Vernon before being very seriously held up; but there they strike the catecoinbs and only the greatest vigilance and persistence on the part of the consignee can rescue them from eternal oblivion. If it were a case of liquors, and the consignee were not too thirsty, the mellowing effect of a decade or two in the catecoinbs might not be so much amiss, provided the consignee be youug enough to survive the period of waiting. Fortunately shippers are in the habit of sending invoices and shipping bills when goods are sent out', otherwise it would ..be all-off. with the consignee, who need never expect to be notified from the customs at Vernon. The receipt by mail of an invoice or a shipping bill is quite an advantage, to the consignee. He can consult his calendar 'and hisgeograohy and interview travellers who have been over the route and by these means arrive' approximately at the arrival hi Vernon, to which he .will dp well toadd a week or two.

Now if it is good parliamentary precedent in England to search the cellars of the House each session for old Guy Fawkes, (and Sir Wilfrid is such a stickler for English precedent) what is the matter with having the customs catecoinbs at Vernon searched at least once a year for the wandering Willies and homeless Kates in the shape of bonded goods that have never yet reached their' owners ? Now tliis great family journal lias had poured into its sympathetic ear tales of wrong suffered at the hands of the customs at Vernon. It has a lofty stack of correspondence on various items of business between itself and the customs, and it still mourns the loss of a consignment that left Chicago early in February, must have reached Vernon some time in the same month, was cleared of the customs on March 10th, and has never been heard of since.

Hedley poultry-fanciers are going in extensively for the raising of aristocratic birds. No poultry association lnis yet been formed, but in this as in everything else it is a case of \"birds of a feather.\" Mine host McArthur of the hotel Similkameen is in frequent consultatiori with Fred Revely, and all the fine points of the subject from spurs to wattles are referred to Mr. Rolls. Stock-raisers are said to have a code governing the equitable distribution of slick-ears, aud poultry-raisers might find it advantageous to make similar arrangements to minimize the loss from henslaying abroad. At present when a hen cackles all owners of hens that have . a. roving commission must-run to the door, and with- hand to ear, endeavor to locate the sound. The eternal vigilance required in this way is a mental and physical strain, to say nothing of the strenuousness of the sprint necessary to capture the prize.

A picture post card was received from them last mail dated San Francisco, April 17th, announcing their, arrival there, and the disaster befell the city shortly after 5 o'clock next morning. It is to be hoped that Mrs. Forbes' friends at Green Mountain may have heard from them since.

An earthquake shock so violent and prolonged that it damaged every building on the peninsula in some degree, the damage being from cracks in the walls, toppled chimneys and cornices, to complete collapse of hundreds of buildings, loclced the\"earth for fully two'minutes. It was like a cataclysm. People' cried out to each other, like the coming of the end of the world. The oscillation was north and south in a succession of increasing7 and appa,r- eiitly renewed shocks, wi th a twisting movement that threw sleeping people out of their beds.,. In those two minutes the great city was r ii i n ed .Ma hy were killed, perhaps hundreds, Tier- haps thousands, for in the shattering, followed by confusion and fire,, no one may estimate the number of dead. No part of the city , escaped from wreck, fire and death. Gas, water and electric power were suddenly cut off. The business section from the water front to 10th street suffered most appallingly froni the disaster. It lies devastated by the trembler and the fire. \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD -. Fire chief Sullivan, who served in the fire department for over a quarter of a century, was killed hi his engine house, adjoining the California hotel. In homes where early fires had been lighted for preparing breakfast, the fires were started by the tumbling over of coal or oil stoves, or the disconnecting] of gas pipes. In saloons, dance halls and lodging houses on the water front and Barbary coast, where oil lamps were used, the overturned lamps caused the fires. In the business districts along the water front and in the Mission, the furnaces and the trembler worked destruction together. The suddenness and the awrfulness of the disaster left the police as powerless as the fire, department. General Funston at once offered chief of police Dinan aid. He detailed a regiment of soldiers to work with the police in the rescuing of the wounded and the protection of property. Tim flames, fanned by the rising breeze, swept down the main wholesale business streets to within 100 feet of the Union ferry depot, the high tower of which stood at a. dangerous angle. The big wholesale grocery establishment of Wellman, Peck & Co. was on fire from cellar to roof, and the heat was so oppressive that passengers from the ferry boats were obliged to keep close to the water's edge, in order to get past the burning structure. . It was impossible to reach the. centre of the citv from the bav without skirting the shore for a long distance, so as to get around the burning district. At 9 o'clock this morning a thousand men from the Presidio arrived down town to patrol tlie city. The 18th infantry, 1000 strong, arrived from Angel Island a little later and went on patrol'at once! The soldiers have been ordered to shoot down thieves caught in the act of robbing the dead, and to guard with their lives the millions of dolhus worth of property which has been placed in the streets that it may escape the ravages of the Haines. The 1st California armory, 200 strong, two companies, have been detailed to patrol duty on Ellis street. Two more companies are patrolling Broadway in the Italian section. Early in the morning the prisoners confined in the city prison on the fifth floor of the hall of justice were transferred to the-basement of the structure. Later they were removed to the Broadway jail, and if necessary they will be taken to the branch county jail on Mission road. Commissioner E. Myron announced at noon that the 80 odd fire insurance companies interested had decided' to pay dollar for dollar to everyone insured with them. The companies will not discriminate between fire, and earthquake and every one insured will be paid to the extent of the loss. But two of the companies affected are Pacific coats concerns, the others having principal offices' in the east, or in Europe,-mid all will -stand the loss without danger of failure. One of the. first orders issued by the chief of police this 'morning was the closing of every saloon''in the city. The step was taken to prevent.drink crazed rioting in tlie streets. BASEBALL MATCH. Hedley Wins Its First Game of the Season From Gt.- Northern Survey Team. The first baseball game of the season was held on Sunday last between the Hedley . baseballers and a team from the Great Northern survev gang. Lack of practice was evident on both sides, as might be expected from the fact that; this was the first game of the season. The .Great Northern men were, with a single exception, a different team from that played last year. Spine of. them were new to the game, but as there is' sufficient-old material to coach theni a long they may be expected to give a' better account of themselves befor-e the season is over. Without Wes. Rodgers in-the box, Hedley is reduced a few grades, but with some judicious re-construction in the personnel of the team so as to bring up some of the weaker spots to a better average and with more, faithful practice for all, they may put up a fairly strong game before the season is out. , Belo\y is a list of the players and the score : Hedley Bragg, 3b... .4 Messenger, lb. .2 Watson, c 4 Mott, p ...'.\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD ...6 Allen, 2b. 2 Brule, s.s '. 3 Revely, cf .4 Henderson, If. .2 Irwin, rf 2 29 Surveyors November, c... 1 Craig, lb ..1 Scott, p .1 Good, cf .3 Ferguson, 2b. .1 Broadfoot, s.s .0 Hall, 3b: 1 Morton, If.. .. .1 Flood........ .1 10 The Twenty-Mile Road. Last summer a petition was circulated by Mr. J. .T. Marks to obtain a road up Twenty-Mile. It was signed by everybody in town, for all were of the opinion that it was just what was wanted, both for the town and the camps up Twenty-Mile and over eastward towards Riordan Mountain, as well as the claims on Nickel Plate Mountain it-self. There was not a dissenting voice anywhere in town, and the acquiesence did not consist merely in passively signing the petition, but all were prepared to advocate it. A few months later the Premier and the Chief Commissioner of Lands and Works visited Hedley, and in the public meeting which was held Mr. Shatford declared his determination to press for an appropriation to build it, and still everyone contended that it was the correct thing. After a hard fight- in caucus Mr. Shatford secured the appropriation, which was the signal for a clique who thought that some political grist might come to his null because of it, began forthwith to decry and condemn the whole scheme. If Hedley expects to prosper by the exhibition of the particular brand of politics that would foster that sort of thing, then God help the town. In politics there is supposed to be room for difference of opinion, but when the interests of tlie town are at stake all political differences should be dropped. One of the clique let the cat out of the bag when he confidentially chuckled that if they could once catch Shatford having the road go by way of the Oregon they would fix him plenty, and yet that is the way that they must now preach that it should go when they condemn the Twenty-Mile route.

Whitney Go v- erumeiit is.; \"Waging out a new trail of its own, and making many radical reforms' in the conduct of .public affairs. ^ One of their so-called heresies is that of standing out for tlie rights of the people against the corporations and some very sweeping cha.ng.es are likely to result from the agitation that is going on in reference to power obtained from Niagara Falls. The former Government had given large franchises to a few favorites which' practically constituted a monopoly, but tlie present Government may claim the right to regulate rates to such an extent as to minimize tho ill effects'of the monopoly eicated. In addition to this the Government are likely,, themselves to go into the power business by developing power and selling it to manufacturers at a rate that wijl not only provide a handsome revenue to the province, but will completely checkmate any attempt on the part of the big power corporations to charge excessive or extortionate rates for power. ' In all this there is a lesson for British Columbia. We have here a piece of legislation known as the Water Clauses Consolidation Act which, while containing a few very good features, leaves much to be desired in tlie way of protecting the rights of the public against monopoly on the part of corporations, which, by taking advantage of the Act in the acquisition of water rights upon the provisions therein laid down, are able not only to clog tlie wheels of progress by pursuing a dog in the manger policy towards all others who may require power, but may even interfere with the domestic supply for the general public. The rates at which power and light can be supplied from Niagara for manufacturing purposes in Ontario, will make people in this province consider the question anew. Chearjer power \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BDwill give a greater impetus to the mining industry which is and will be the greatest industry in the province, and it will also cheapen the cost of living. The eyes of the Dominion will be turned on Ontario to watch the effect of efforts put forth by a strong Government bent upon conserving the public interests, and if they solve satisfactorily the problem of cheap power and light for the people it will pay the legislatures in the other provinces to lose no unneces sary time in moving jsame direction. ^ i Another evidence of the. cour- lage of Mr. 'Whitney's Admiiiis- jtration is seen in the decision which they have made to retain for the province -a rich mining section in the now \"famous Cobalt district. They have demonstrated the practicability of public ownership of railways by making the Kaministiqua Railway-yield a handsome profit to the province after giving a good service to the people at reasonable rates. Instead of being afraid to move without a precedent, Mr Whitney doesn't hesitate to make one. Dm-ing the debate on the address at the opening of the present session of the Dominion Parliament, Sir Wilfrid Laurier in replying to his critics, defended the failure of his Government as a whole and of Mr. Mulock in particular to introduce a bill making it illegal for any member of-parliament to be appointed to a position of emolument under the Government Avithin two years after he had occupied a seat in the House, on the ground that there was no English precedent for such legislation. Mr. Mulock did introduce' such a bill when in opposition and presumably with the approval of his leader, so that if lack of precedent is a bar now to the introduction of such legislation it should also have prevented its introduction when in opposition. A fig for precedent! Had those who gave us our constitution and our laws required a precedent for everything which they did we would have no laws to-day. What every country needs is an administration with sufficient courage, honesty and common sense to legislate for present wants and future requirements, free from the cobwebs of precedent. Ontario apparently has- that sort of goveniment'-now, and other provinces will do well to watch closely the outcome of some of the courageous steps that Mr. Whitney and his followers are taking. ,.

Good Accommodation and Strict Attention to the Wants of the Public. Livery Barn in Connection. THE HEDLEY GAZETTE, APRIL 26, 1006 Town and District. Billy Summers of Princeton was in town last week. A balcony is heing put up in front of the Great Northern. Superintendent Murpoleof the C.P.R paid a visit to Penticton last week. Mi*. S.:L. Smith was very ill on Monday, but is improving again. The new cable for the Daly Reduction Go's tramway came in last -week and is ready to be put in place. Harvey'Tingley has taken the contract of building a cottage for J. Mair- hoft'er, on his lots across the creek. The mountain sheep yarns that are afloat since that one was seen up the creek a couple of weeks ago would lead one to suppose that the country is to be over-run with \"big horn.\" Liist week the Gt. Northern surveyors who were working at Brushy Bottom moved their camp up the river to a, point in the vicinity of the old sawmill. The Similkameen river and Twenty- Mile creek have been rising during the past week, This is one of the reasons given by local fishermen to excuse tho smallness of the catch. Indian Agent Irwin of Kamloops was in town last week accompanied by his wife. While here he negotiated a grazing lease for Indian Johnnie Su- sanne with Cawston . & Edmonds, butchers. Word has come from Princeton that work has been suspended at Voigt's Camp. The cessation of operations is declared to be only temporary and that during the interim, additional plant may be put in. The Daly Reduction Co\", have had a large kiln of charcoal burned, up Twenty-Mile, and the teams are drawing it to the works. The charcoal is for use in the bullion furnaces and will also be used in the assay department. The bakery run by David James in connection with the restaurant is appreciated by liohse-keepers. The hot- cross buns on Good Friday were pro- nouced O.K., and the. bread and pastry obtainable at all times is a great convenience. ; It is not fully-decided whether another base-ball match will be played with the railroaders on Sunday. If they move . camp again during this week their next camp may be too far op the river,to make it convenient for them to come. The Kamloops Presbytery have decided to send a man into this field. The one selected is Mr. D. P. Smith of Manitoba college, Winnipeg. The exact date of his arrival has not yet been \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BDannounced but in all probability he will be along in a few days more. Harry Twiddle's injury at the Central Hotel fire at Keremeos, developed into a case of blood poisoning. Dr. McEwen was summoned by \"phone and went down to attend him. The trouble was checked and lie is now on a fair way to recovery. There has been a rumor about for a few days to the effect that the Golden Zone group had been placed by the holder of the bond, Mr. W. D McMillan. So far the Gazette has had no opportunity to verify the story, which however, has strong probabilities in its favoi-. Bobbv Stevenson came down on .Sunday and has gone up on the mountain to look after some important mining interests which he holds to the northeast of Riordan mountain. Bobby, the oldest survivor of all the old- timers, has wintered well and is able to outlast many of the Chechakhos. Chief Engineer Kennedy of the V. V. & E. has been called to Ottawa to 'appeal' before the Raihvay Commission in reference to approval ol the Company's plans for building on the north side of the river at Hedley. No definite information had been received concerning the result up to the time of going to press. Last week it was held to be a debatable question whether or not it was a sin to play baseball on Sunday. After last game a good many would be of the same opinion as the Lord's Day Alliance, that it would decidedly be a sin to play such ball as was played then. Good ball may be good but bad ball is always bad and bad things are sinful. The earlier reports from San Francisco spoke of a tidal wave attended Avith terrible loss of life, and as all telegraphic communication out of the city was cut off those who had friends living there were left in terrible suspense. Mrs. Burritt's people were living in San Francisco, and it was not until Satm-? day that the assurance came to hand that they were fill safe at Oakland. There is a general kick on the manner in which the telephone office at Penticton is conducted. Half the time they will refuse to answer the 'phone at all, and when they do think worth while to take down the receiver and listen they recognize no responsibility in the matter of bringing people to the 'phone. This sort of thing is a fraud on subscribers who are paying their monthly rental, and it is up to superintendent Stevens and the Department of Interior to see that the thing is remedied. Our local billiard cracks ran up against a snag last week. The snag (who shall Vie nameless because nobody knew what his name was) sauntered into Hairsine's billiaul room with a pal with whom he played a' game or two in an indifferent sort of way. His locks were long and fair. When he proposeda. game to Carl it looked like an easy two bits,' while the barber made a mental note\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\"there's four bits there for me sure.\" In his play Paddy Roosky began to show sjgns of awakening. Alter getting away with Carl he was.switched on to Harry Rose for a couple of games, and Harry has quite a time since then explaining how it happened. Paddy was.a caution. Dear John is himself authority for the\"information that he has been stealing a march on the other buttinsky\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD the Nicola one. Relying on the lttashy influence of his callow youth and smug, smirky smiles he hello-ed to the hello-girl at Kamloops and requested her to visit the jail there and endeavor to comfort the Chinkaphobia- felons from Penticton. As the hello-girls all along the line will fall over themselves to oblige dear John, of course, she went. It was perhaps rather unfair of John to butt-in again all alone and not give the other fellow a chance, even if he had been slighted and done out of his share of the cigars. Dear John couldn't understand why the Chinka- phobians should send cigars to anyone who had rented his house to Chinks for a laundry, and slight him just because he had a long .time - ago'. hired Chinks to work on his i*anch \" allee saniee\" big land companies. But never mind; dear John has .a corner on the hello-girls and the other fellows can keep their old cigars. But now wouldn't it be a measly trick if those jail chaps at Kamloops should try to smile sweeter than John and thus alien- site the affections of the hello-girls?
