"The Tribune was published in Nelson, in the Central Kootenay region of southeastern British Columbia, and ran from November 1892 to November 1905. The Tribune was published and edited by John Houston, an outspoken journalist who would later embark on a successful political career, which included four terms as the mayor of Nelson and two terms in the provincial legislature. Houston had established the Miner in Nelson in 1890, and, after leaving the Miner in the summer of 1892, he established the Tribune to compete with his former paper. In August 1901, the title of the paper was changed to the Nelson Tribune."@en . ""@en . "https://open.library.ubc.ca/collections/xtribune/items/1.0187582/source.json"@en . "application/pdf"@en .

Lust Thursday afternoon a serious and fatal accident occurred at \"St. Mary's river, west of Lethbridge, where a bridge is being constructed for the Crow's Nest railway. A. p-u.-by of men were engaged on ilie framework, though a heavy wind was prevailing a!, the time. Suddenly a portion of the woodwork gave way, carrying with it eight men. A man named Ferguson, of Renfrew, Out., was kiPed, and the others were seriously injured. The men fell about sixty feet. AH the injured were removed to the Lethbridge hospital.- Later advices state that fur- ' Brought Down that is as Unfair as it Could Possibly Be. Governments, like individuals, must be judged by their acts, not by their professions. The government in power in British Columbia., if judged by this standard, can he likened only to the sure-thing fakir. An election is approaching, and instead of uiking even chancer of being returned lo power by the people, the government, by a. scheme of redistribution of seats, gives the people as little chance to 1 win as does the .-^lire-thing fakir. Unimportant sections, sparsely populated, like Esquimalt, Lillooet, and Cassiar, are given two members each, while sections that not only contribute large sums in revenue but have large population are given but one. The membership ot the house has been increased from 33 to 81'. The representation on Vancouver Island remains the same. The representation on the Mainland is increased by four: the in- <\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD crease giving Vancouver, Cassiar, East Kootenay, and West Kootenay each one additional member. East Kootenay is to take in part of West Kootenay (presumably, all that portion of West Kootenay to the east of Kootenay lake and Duncan river). West Kootenay laps over on Vale, so as to r.ake iu the Boundary Creek country. By this scheme, it is expected that the opposition member from Vancouver will be offset by a government member from Oassiar, and that the opposition member from West Kootenay will be paired with a government supporter from East Kootenay. West Kootenay is to be divided into three ridings: Revelstoke and the adjacent mining divisions will be known as North Kootenay; Slocan, Ainsworth, and Nelson mining divisions will be known as Center Kootenay, and South Kootenay wilt take in the Trail mining division and the Boundary Creek country. South Kootenay will have a population of not less tan 7000 and a voting strength of probably 1-100; Center Kootenay will have a population of 10,000 and a voting strength of 2000: North Kootenay will have a population of 3000 and a voting strength of (iOO. East. Kootenay is to be divided into two ridings. The north riding will have a population of 17.30 and a voting strength of 350, and the south riding a . population of 2500 and a voting strength of (i00. This is equal representation according to the Turner government's idea of equality. But the above is not so glaringly unt.\jiial as tiie following: East and West Lillooet and Cariboo, with a voting strength nf about 1000, are allowed four members, or four times the representation of the center riding of West Kootenay, with its 2000 voters. South Kootenay and Center Kootenay, with the incorporated cities of' Rossland, Nelson, Kaslo, and Sandon, with great dividend jiaying mines employing thousands of well-paid tuiuers, with 12 branches of chartered banks, with hundreds of wholesale aud retail houses, with-a thousand or more children attending schools, are al- - lowed just the same representation as Esquimalt, a district known only because it returns government supporters by acclamation. Vet, the people are told that the Turner government should be returned to office because they are not niggardly'with the people's money. No more is the sure-thing fakir niggardly with the money lie wiiis from his victims. Will Erect a Stamp Mill. A. E. Rand, of Vancouver, has been in town this week straightening up matters in connection with the Athabasca mine preparatory to the property being turned over to its English purchasers. This coin- pa,ny has been -organized with a capital amounting to \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD200,000/aud they assume the management of the Athabasca on May 1st. A small force of men have been employed on the property all winter, but will be largely increased. Arrangements have also been made for the immediate erection of a- 10-st.ainp mill for treating the ore, on Give-out creek, about three miles from Nelson. Steady operations will continue on the mine, aud the returns promise to be most profitable. Stock in the Athabasca is rising rapidly, and the demand from the coast is increasing. <. \: Free Coinage Shows Well. T. C. Collins completed assessment work on the Free Coinage, situated close to the Lizzie C. yesterday. The work has been confined to stripping the ledge in a number of places, and the results are gratifying. The showing of quartz, which gives $22 in gold, has widened out to three feet,' mixed with;galena- and copper. Ju this strike the galena shows less zinc and is of higher grade, and to judge from the samples Thomas G. brought down, the property will soon be on a shipping basis. Upwards of $1000 worth of work has been done on the Free Coinage, and it is the intention to have it surveyed for a crown grant. A proposition is to be made to a company to work the property this summer. ther deaths have occurred from the effects of the accident. The killed are : D. Ferguson. Renfrew, Out.; Leon Rieux, Quebec ; Jacob Thompson, Revelstoke. The injured are: A. J. Nordland, Lethbridge; Rory Campbell, Glengarry; John Bres- Iain, Montreal; M. J. Kenny, Glenyille; Thomas McBirney, Revelstoke. WEEK'S EXPORTS TOTAL $70,826. Nelson Shipments Confined Principally to the Hall Mines Smelter.

Johnson appeared before his honor Judge Forin, under the speedy trials act, on Tuesday, charged with the seduction of a Finnish girl, at Kaslo, over a year ago, under promise of marriage. W. A. Macdonalcl appeared for the crown and W. Calliher for tho defendaut. At his preliminary trial Johnson was allowed outou bail, to appear at the late assizes in Nelson. He failed to put in an appearance, and his bail was forfeited. Later on he was arrested on .a bench warrant and lodged in the provincial jail, where he sobbed and wept over his errors. Tuesday morning his case was gone through, to the morbid delight of a large audience. The plaintiff, who is a young girl of 20 years and pleasing appearance, was present with her infant, and was forced to give the revolting details. Upon the conclusion of the evidence, Mr. Calliher moved for the discharge of the prisoner, as no corroborative testimony of the ages of defendant or plaintiff had been adduced, or the promise of marriage proven. His honor noted the objections raised, and stated that he would much like to give Johnson the rights he deserved, as it was clearly a villainous case, tho prisonernow not being willing to support his offspring or, marry the girl he had so cruelly wronged. The court adjourned the case till 'Monday next, as he wished to confer with Mr. Justice Irving as to the legality of the case being hauded down to a lower court for trial when the prisoner had pleaded in a higher tribunal. Launching- of the Hercules. The new tug which has been building for some time past at Bogustown, was launched on Tuesday morning, just as the Kokanee was steaming into port. Mrs. Angus Campbell christened the craft the Hercules as the trim little vessel slid off the ways into the water. The launching was a success in every way. Messrs. Hale, Elliot and Campbell are the owners,' and they have in the Hercules the most powerful tug on the inland waters of British Columbia. She is SO feet long and her engines, are of 200 horse power. Nelson will be its home port. Burial of G. B. Wright. The funeral of the late G. B. Wright took place at New Westminster on Tuesday morning at 10.30 o'clock, from D. Murchie's undertaking parlor to the Masonic cemetery at Sapperton, the services being conducted, by Rev. A. Shildrick. The pallbearers were C.-G. Major, L. Gui- chon, J as. Leamy. Benj. Douglas, J. C. Armstrong and W. W. Dickinson. Among those who witnessed the last sad rites, in addition to the pallbearers, were: J. A. Webster, Jas. Wise, .Peter Grant, T. L. Briggs and Capt. Peele; also mesdames Dickinson, English, Clute, Leamy and Woods. . Moonshiners Captured. Last week a squad of North '\"West Mounted police captured two moonshiners, named J. Gagnon and J. Lachasseur, near the Twenty-mile house, on the Crow's Nest right-of-way. Their complete paraphernalia was seized and destroyed. The prisoners were brought here by officer Wilson on Monday, and appeared before W. A. Jowett, J. P., this morning. They were remanded until next Tuesday. War Eagle Improving. The War Eagle mine at Rossland has been proved to a depth of 025 feet, giving an estimated amount of ore in sight ot $3,500,000. Iu one place the vein is exposed to a width of 50 feet, giving an average assay of $25. The force is to be increased to 250 men. Stock prices are strengthening rapidly, being now worth $.1.50 per share. Supreme Court Sittings. Supreme court ^sittings were to have been held here yesterday, but were postponed till today, pending the arrival of Mr. Justice Irving. Among those present at the opening of the court this morning were J. Abbott, A. MacNeill, A. Gait and C. Hamilton, of Rossland, and A. Sutton, of Grand Forks. I Engineer McCulloch Instructed to Survey new -Cemetery Site. The thirteenth regular meeting of the city council was held on Monday afternoon. Present, Mayor Houston, in. the chair; aldermen Gilker, llillyer and Malone.' Routine business disposed of, the mayor reported that he and three aldermen had visited and inspected the land adjoining the southern boundary of the city, between the Nelson 6c Fort Sheppard railway and Cottonwood creek, and found that it would be a suitable site for a cemetery. The city engineer was instructed to make a survey of the land in question, in order that it may be procured for a cemetery. Tenders for building a retaining wall on the west side of Stanley street, between Victoria and Silica streets, were received from Noel & Thompson, stone wall, $549 ; earth excavation, $152; deductions or additions, $8 per cubic yard for wall, and -JOc. for excavations. K. Canuell, whole work, $719; deductions or additions, $3 per cubic: yard of wall aud (iOc. for excavation. Eric Paliuquist, $780 \"for whole work. Winchester &'Hernianson, whole work, $838.25 ; deductions and additions, wall. $3.75, and excavation, '10c. Moved by aldermen llillyer and Gilker that the tenders be received aud not acted on. Carried. The reason for this was that the estimate of the owners of the Phair hotel for the work was about $-100, of which they woidd pay half : the tenders were deemed too high. By-law No. 29, streets and sidewalks amendment, was introduced, and read a lirst, second and third time. It will come up for final treatment at next meeting of the council. By-law No. 30, for imposing a tax on fire insurance companies, was introduced by aldermen Hillyer and Malone. It was read a first, second and third time, and will come up for final action , at next meeting of the council. The city engineer, on motion of aldermen Malone and llillyer, was instructed to prepare plans and specifications for grading Hall street, between Baker street aud the C. P. R. track; he to report at next meeting of the council. Mayor Houston was authorized to purchase shades for windows of city clerk's office, to have sign fixed to door of office, and to have name painted on safe.\" City engineer McCulloch was instructed to prepare plans and specifications for retaining wall, aud for filling in of the intersection of Ward and Silica streets to grade. It was resolved, on motion of aldermen Gilker aud Malone, that Carbonate, Silica and Mill streets be opened from Hendryx street east to the city limit, and that all other residence streets be cleared of stumps and logs, and that the work be done by day labor, under a competent foreman. It was decided to expend a sum not exceeding $200 in clearing the city park of fallen timber and dead underbrush: the work to be done by day labor. City engineer McCulloch was instructed to take levels for grading the recreation grounds and prepare an estimate of the amount of material to be moved, and report at next meeting of council.

Last Thursday Frank Larsley shot A. Myers on the Pend d'Orei.lle river, having mistaken him for a deer. Myers was shot in the left side. The wound is not a dangerous one, the shot having cut the flesh without penetrating the intestines. The authorities are investigating the case. No. 1 Shipping to Nelson. The No. 1 mine at \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD'Ainsworth is beginning to -hip its ore to the Hall Mines smelter at this city. A scowload of the product was brought down on Sunday by the tug Kaslo. It was first put through the crusher at Pilot Bay. Other shipments from this and other mines will follow. Seduced with Promises. After all the seductive promises mat hy e them by the Turner government, the people of the great city of Rossland who wore willing to traffic on their manhood, get just what the little district of West Lillooet gets. The Rossland Miner should be sent to a reform school. Exports for the Quarter. Exports from the port of Nelson I'or the quarter ending March 31 amounted to $2,700,513. Shaft on the Gold Cup Group Taps Three Distinct Ledges. II. llamill, foreman on the Gold Cup group of claims in the Salmon river country, now being operated by the Margurete Gold Mining Company, came into Nelson last night. Work on the property is being hindered by seepage water from the. snow, which is melting very fast, so he came in to secure a pump to keep the shaft dry. Me is also taking out with, him three more men, increasing the force to eight, which number will be still further increased as accommodations are provided. . v. The main shaft on the Gold Cup is now down 50 feet, with inside measurements of 5A feet by S_ feet. At this depth three veins are exposed, evidently through a squeezing of the country rock, as they Centre Star and War Eagle is being received, and it will not be longorethe bins are full. The War Eagle is under con- tract to supply 200 tons daily. \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BDTHIRTY.' MINERAL SPECIMENS. as will doubtless widen out to one full vein when the \"horse\" is passed. The main vein is three feet wide, with a solid pay- streak two feet wide, carrying gold, galena aud copper. Assays from this . give $33 in gold, 22 ounces silver, and I2i per cent copper, demonstrating the prop-' erty to be valuable. No. 2 ledge cuts across the main vein at right angles, and is close to two feet in width. The third vein, which is a foot wide, issues from the No. 1 in a northerly direction. All three veins are fully mineralized aud carry .shipping ore. There is considerable shipping ore on the dump, which will be largely increased by the time the 100-foot level is reached. In two weeks a force of men will be put on to cut out the trail to wagon road guage, which, when completed, will enable the company to ship. California to Start Up. The California mine, one of the most promising properties in the Slocan country, and situated on Silver mountain, adjoining New Denver, will resume operations in a few days.1 A. J. Marks, of this city, who is heavily interested in the mine with Messrs. Burns and Van Houten. is arraugiug the preliminaries. He will obtain the bulk of the supplies iu Nelson, as the prices are about 30 per cent, cheaper than in New Denver. Quarters will be erected for about thirty men. and this number will be kept constantly employed and the property put on a shipping basis. Pack animals will be sent up from here to h_._d'e the supplies. One of the first improvements to be effected will be the laying _f a track iu the crosscut tunnel for dumn cars. The working of the California will mean a great deal to New Denver. Ten Mile's Bonanza Property. Owing to,every available space being blocked with ore and the roads breaking up, the Enterprise mine, On Ten Mile creek, has reduced its force of fifty inen to eight, and these will be kept at development work only. During the winter 1,000 tons of high: grade ore has been hauled to the lake for shipment, while at the mine is stored as much more; Not a pound of ore has been shipped, the management playing a waiting game. Sufficient development work has been done, foreman Harrington says, and enough ore blocked out to keep a. large force of men stoping for the next eight years. It is oh the ticket to have large reduction works erected in the summer on the creek below the mine, to treat the zinc in the ore, which is present in a large percentage. Noble Five Trouble Ended. The trouble which has involved the Noble Five mine, in the Slocan country, for so long has at length been settled, and the management is now working with a clear hand. The winding-up order against the property has been set aside by the courts, and money is on hand to put the mine on a paying basis. . No.shipments of ore will be made for a year, but everything will be handled in a common-sense manner. If custom work 'offer's the concentrator will be run, but not otherwise. Those elected to the management are : president, James Diitismuir, of Victoria ; vice-president, J. D. Porter, of Spokane; secretary, F. J. Hoi man, of Spokane: assistant secretary, G. B. McDonald, of Cody; other directors, C. E. Pooley, of Victoria; J. G. McGuigaii. of Spokane: and B. J. Perry, of Victoria. Will Erect a Lead Stack. The C. P. R. are arranging details for the erection of a lead stack as an adjunct to the Trail smelter. The stack is to be in operation by the end of the present year, and will have a capacity of about 150 tons daily. Supplies of wet ores will be drawn 'principally from the Slocan country via Slocan City. The erection,of the stack will obviate the necessity of a smelter at Robson. Sentenced to Three Months. L. Marchand and A. Deroehcr, charged with breaking info C. P. R. freight cars at Robson, came before \V. A. Jowett, .1. P., last week and were committed for trial. On Thursday of tins week they appeared before Judge Forin, under tho speedy trials act, and were sentenced to three months' hard labor. Improving the Reverberatories. Under C. P. I?. management, many important improvements arc being effected at the Trail smelter. The old reverbera- tory furnaces are being pulled down, and in their place two new blasts will lie erected, which will give the planta capacity of 500 tons pur day. being double that under the Fleinzf: regime. Ore. from the its force ol em- hoi car The concentrating plant to be put in by the Tamilrac. will treat 50 tons per day. Ground i'or the Dundee concentrator has been obtained at the mouth of Bear creek. Work is to be resinned on the Wilcox, in the Vmir camp, owned by the'Cana: dian Pacific Gold Eields Co. . Harrow & French have resumed opem- tions on the Big Patch, on Porcupine creek. Assays from this chum have given $5,000 in gold. Registration papers have been granted the Albion Mining Co., of Spokane, which has a capital of $1,000,000 in $1 shares. Ainsworth is the provincial headquarters, with IT. Giegerich in charge. The Alberta Gold Mining Co., of Spokane, has been gazetted to do business in the Rossland camp, with a capitalization of $1,000,000, in $1 shares. James Hunter is the company's agent. L. M. Hyde, of this city, has been appointed attorney for the Goldendale in place of R. E. Lemon. J. D. Graham, of Revelstoke, is now the attorney of the Waverley Mine, Limited, vice J. Grant, of Albert Canyon. A special general meeting of the Fourteen Gold Mines Consolidated Co. will be held in Rossland on April 30, to authorize sale of property. The shareholders of the Lily May wijl meet at Rossland on May 7, to endorse disposal of assets. Ymir business men will build a trail to the Second Relief mine, near Craigtown. Operations have been recommenced on the Commonwealth group, in the L_idea.ii cam]). Five men are developing the Union Jack, near Ferguson. A force of seven men has been put to work on the Black Eagle, less than two miles from Ferguson. Five hundred tons of Silver Cup (in the Trout Lake camp) ore is scattered along the road lo the Lauding on the lake, to be shipped to the American smelters. On the Free Coinage, in the Lardeau camp, the workmen are driving in clean ore. \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 Rose Bud group of claims, on the north fork of Kettle river, a promising free milling proposition, is to be thoroughly 'developed this summer. It is attracting the attention of capitalists. George Young, a Camp McKinney miner, had his leg broken last Tuesday by falling rock. Development work on the Duplicate group, in Summit camp, is to be commenced at once. Ore of a satisfactory and paying', grade has been struck on the Norfolk, in Central camp. The vein shows up strongly. Three feet of ore has been struck on the Gladstone-group,. owned by the Canada Mutual Mining and Development Co. The ore assays about $11 to the ton. Ross Thompson lias 'been elected -president: J. Fred Ritchie, vice-president ; G. W. Richardson, secretary-treasurer ; and E. Donahue, M. Moses and D. B.

The owners of the-Cliff initio, at Rossland, arc quarreling among themselves, thus blocking incorporation proceedings. The ore chute in the Silver Cup mine, in the Lardeau, has been proven upwards of 200 feet in length. One hundred and fifty tons is the manthly output. Bonds have been taken at good figures; on the Klondyke and Big Five groups in the Lardeau district. Upwards of fifty men quit work this week at'the Silver King.

Now Denver will be his headquarters, and ho purposes acquiring oilier Charley BurrlU's Short Hiring of Life Measured up. A wave of regret parsed over the city on Monday evening when it, became known ihal Charley Burritt had h>\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BDt, his life in the rapids- of the Kootenay rivi-t-, about out' and one-ha If miles from .WUnn. The Miner stall' \vn- (akinga hi.'idny. and Burritt and \V. McMorri\". both of whom were employed in ihe. ('(imposing loom, decided to spend the afternoon in fishing at the rapids-. They embarked in a canoe belonging to Burritt, who has been the leading canoeist on inland waters for years. When just about Squire's point the. boys left their sails on shorf, and then ran the rapids to the island. After fishing ad different points with varying' success, the couple commenced their return journey about -1.30. They navigated a portion of the river in safety, but in shooting the big eddy a wave suddenly struck the.canoe, and in a moment; the craft, was overturned and the occupants thrown into, the icy waLer. McMorris sti uck out for shore, but went under several times before he got on to tin. i-land, when he sank to the ground completely exhausted. lie lay iu a dead swoon, for twenty minutes or so, and when he recovered his senses saw the canoe floating round in the eddy upside down, but there was no sign of his companion. lie remembers seeing Burritt astride of the canoe, as he was struggling ashore. McMorris lay on the island till about seven o'clock, when his cries for assistance were heard by Messrs. Jowett and Day, who rescued him in the nick of time, as ho was suffering intensely from exposure. The news spread rapidly through the city on their arrival, j.nd the next day the fire brigade, of which deceased was a member, ami many others joined in the search for the body. Dj'iiamite was fired over the eddy, but the body could not be found. The canoe was discovered about a quarter of a mile from the railway bridge, with, the bow staved in from having struck a rock. Monthly evening a telegram was sent to the deceased's father in Vancouver, and he arrived on Wednesday and has been searching the river ever since, assisted by government men. Charley Burritt was only twenty-three years of age, aud came here from Vancouver five years ago. His parents and relatives reside on Mount Pleasant, a suburb of that city, Mr. Burritt; being mail collector. Deceased was a manly young fellow, being noted for his integrity and sobriety. He had been a member of the fire brigade ever since it was organized, aud his fellows in the brigade feel his loss keenly. They have had the Union Jack at half-mast over the hall ever since the accident. Burritt was a most intrepid canoeist, and had shot the rapids in safety scores of times. About three months ago he got upset in about the same spot, but was rescued in time. The father and other members of the family are broken-hearted over the affair, as they 'had not seen him since his leaving Vancouver five years ago. Burritt was well known in this vicinity, and the regret at his sudden death is sincere. Boundary Thankful to Nelson. J. Naden, of Greenwood City, was in Nelson on Wednesday. He reports his section looking well, with a bright outlook for mining. ;'; Boundary Creek feels indebted to Nelson for its influence on behalf of the Corbin charter, which will prove a life-giving factor to that camp. Mr. Naden\".saw.Mr. Ross, one of the Boundary country newspaper men, just before he left. Mr. Ross had been to Ottawa lobbying for Corbin, and he stated the C. P.

Lord Aberdeen'on Tuesday signed an order in council allowing the law to take its course in the case of John Davis, alias Doyle or Sullivan, who is sentenced to be hanged for the murder of Dennis Connors iu a bar room at ivtiskonook on-Febriiary 13th. Next Friday morning, at S o'clock, |)av,is will bo executed in the Nelson jail yard. Davis does not seem to care much, and he still t efiises ministerial assistance, lie is in the pink of health, and looks better now than when incarcerated., A limited number of invitations have.been issued for the execution, not over two dozen people being given admittance, though the applications are numerous.

ISSiS Uua.st merchants and pa tiers are feeling the effect of their hasty and ill-judged opposition to the Kettle River railway. Boundary merchants have withdrawn their patronage from Victoria and Vancouver, and all orders aro being transferred to eastern bouses. The same thing happened when the Nelson 6c Fort Sheppard railway was being built into this place. Coast; iniluences opposed the road, and tho .markets of this vicinity have been'Iost to Vancouver and Victoria ever .since. One such costly lesson would have sufficed for t.ho average class of people, but it takes repeated scourgings for coast merchants to come to their senses. When too late they realize the errors of their ways. They raise the cry of Canada for the Canadians, and then act iu a manner to drive their own trade away. The Victoria Times has grasped the situation and characterizes coast opposition to the'Cor- bin interests as a boomerang, which has returned to those who shot it with telling force, causing loss of trade ami profit,. The Times rubs it into the Victoria and Vancouver boards of trade and those \"drivelling organs.\" the Colonist and World, ft scores the provincial government also for passing the anti-Corbin resolution\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BDthe combined action of all resulting in the coast section of the province being reduced to be servile servants of the C. L\ R. The Times would have it that the coast merchants have been blinded and led on in their opposition by Canada's big monopoly to their own undoing. It characterizes the resolutions passed as stupid, with deplorable and disastrous consequences, and the blunders committed as inexcusable. It cannot and does not blame the people of the Boundary country for the bitter feeling they show for the treatment accorded them. The Times concludes its \"boomerang\" thusly: \"Every British Columbian ought to feel \"heartily ashamed to. think that the \"'affairs of this province are in the hands \"of men who would give iiway their souls \"(if they had any) if 'sir'William' Van \" Home demanded them. I'd is time for a \"change; turn the rascals out.\" The coast merchants deserve just as much censure, for Kootenay aud Boundary is lost to them for all time to come. A ti.iim.k alliance has been formed between the school trustrees, city council and South ICootenay board of trade, for the purpose of elevating iVolson to the proud position of running, her own educational system. To do this, they believe they have a, strong case against the provincial government in that the financial grants in tiie past have been scant and insufficient, and the three bodies have formulated a united demand upon the exchequer for funds for a twelve-roomed central school and $(5,000 cash, ff this be secured, the city guarantees to assume full control of local school matters on and after.\"Inly I. Government assistance does not keep pace with the rapid growth of population'iu Nelson, and instead o[\"having accommodation provided ahead, the authorities permit matters to struggle along in a most haphazard manner. There is an average daily attendance at the school of-'300 pupils, and this number is constantly increasing. Besides, there are scores of youngsters who do not attend school because the facilities are so meagre. No provision has been made for the furtherance of the instruction of the higher grades, and pupils are turned adrift with an insufficient education. Were the city in control of its own schools, adequate accommodation could be provided in keeping with the increase in population, and the evils existing in the present system would be reduced to a minimum. At the same time, any town that aspires to the dignity of a city should have sufficient stamina and backbone to carve its own way in the world without seeking aid. from the government I'or its public departments. The provincial authorities would gain by the proposed transaction, and Nelson would have the satisfaction of showing her sister cities that she is quite capable.of taking care oi' her own interests. Canada's lead smelting industry will stand encouragement, and the united influence of all interested mercantile and industrial bodies in-British Columbia is being exerted towards having an import duty placed upon all lead products by the dominion government. Jvaslo board of trade has taken a practical way of showing its sympathy in the movement by sending a delegate, in tho person of G. O. Buchanan, to interview Sir Wilfrid Ltuir- ier on the subject. Mi: Buchanan's hands have been strengthened by receiving the ondorsation of the South Kootenay'board of trade, at its annual meeting in this city on Thursday evoning. Naturally the first district to feel the impetus to the smelting industry-that would follow,upon encouraging legislation would be Kootenay, -and it behooves all interested in mining to help the good cause along. Canada is credited -with lining close to 21000 tons annually of load and its byproducts. To supply this demand, works of considerable: magnitude would bo kept running continuous!y. With the homo marts secure from outside competition, the'Canadian smelters could make a bid for a. portion of the foreign trade, particu- ) ii !y in China and Japan. The proximity (,!' i iu. A'-ial.ic market, and the centralization of lire.--, fluxosailjd fuel, together with (juii-k and efficient transportation facili t:, i.i ,!,, -iiotiMl .place the hoottmay country 'root, ra nk of I ho forward march of Tn 10 mining committee of the legislature has this week recommended several changes in the min_ral act, among others being that no license shall be granted except to a British subject, or no crown grant issued a claim unless it be in the name of ;i British subject. This alien clause will work disaster to the mining industry of this country, should it be adopted. It is hard to realize that the members of tho committee would have entertained the proposition, though it has come before them time and again. There can be no disguising the fact that West Kootenay, and all southeastern British Columbia owes its present advancement to the far-seeing enterprise of the American capitalist. Jn the majority of cases the investment of British capital has been attended by the wholesale waste of money and the most extravagant ideas of mine development. The Briton has stepped in only where the path has been made smootI.i by the American argonaut. The American, for it is against him the alien clause mainly applies, is pre-eminently the miner.of the day, and. it is due to his exertions that British Columbia has advanced so rapidly in mineral development. It would be a great injustice to sacrifice the interests of those who have invested their millions in the mines of the country. Were the clause adopted, more than fifty per cent, of the mines would be closed down, the towns would become deserted, and disaster would overwhelm business. There can be no reasonable ground advanced for the proposed amendment, while the negative arguments are numerous ami pronounced. Till-: Corbin charter is still forcing its way through the dominion house, and there is little doubt that it will receive official sanction, liven when introduced into the commons, after-parsing the railway committee, the C. I\ 11. maintained and followed out a course of-strict opposition to the charter. Among the best speeches in support of the Corbin -application was that made by .'J. Boss oobertson, who took a common' souse view of the situation. Competition is the life of trade,'and the mercantile and industrial interests of the country can be best served by having rival railway lines. Mr. Iiobertson's idea of the greatest good to tho greatest: number is a safe basis to work upon, and is aptly fitted to the sanctioning ot the Kettle ll.iver railway. The interests of Canada are by no means endangered by granting to the people of the Boundary country the right lo have a competitive line of railway built at private expense. By means of American push and enterprise this great district of Oxi<: of the most striking features of the numerous debates in the legislature this session, has been the uncourteous and unbecoming language so frequently used by the occupants of the government benches, necessitating sharp censure from Mr. Speaker. The cabinet members have been the most violent offenders and they have reduced proceedings to a most undignified level, rather befitting a backwoods camp than the legislative halls of an educated people. Slany home-searching truths have been uttered by the Opposition, to be received by JMr. Turner's colleagues with personal abuse and nasty epithets hurled across the door against the speakers, unmindful of and disrespectful to the. dignitary presiding, .lion. Mr. Martin has followed the lead of his superiors, aud has ventured the polite retort of \"Itats!\" to the remarks of an opponent. Dr. Walke'm has also added his quota by telling Mr. Speaker that he would not permit him or any one else to interfere with his speeches. These incidents create an unwholesome impression throughout the country, and public opinion naturally condemns the premier who will permit these things to continue. So far as Dr. Walkem is concerned, lie is a lightweight, and his fro things are not deemed serious: but Hon. Messrs. Booley. and Martin et al are old enough to know better. Their bull-dozing tactics in the house are ruining their reputations in the country. Tin-: TfMios, of Victoria, like nine-tenths of the newspapers iu Canada, imagines that Rassland is Kootenay. In an article on redistribution, it gives Bossland l.rXlO voters, and the remainder of Kootenay 3,000. Jt would give Bosslaud one member, and the remainder of Kootenay three. Now a return brought down to the house shows that Trail Creek mining division, which includes the town of Trail and the city of Rossland, has 590 names on the voters' list; Nelson, Ainsworth and Slocan divisions, in which are tho cities of Nelson, .Kaslo and Sandon, has 1,8(57; lievelstoke, lllecillewaetand Trout Lake divisions, 1.3-1-1 voters, and the divisions in East Kootenay, 715 voters. The return shows that Kootenay has -1,55-1 voters on the lists, of which the city of Itossland and town of Trail have but 590. This lea.ves 4,000 for the remainder of Kootenay. According to the Times, these 1,000 voters are entitled to three members, while Sew Westminster district, with 3,772 voters, is entitled to five members. The Times should know that Rossland is not Kootenay. Trail Creek mining division, of which Rossland is the chief town, is fairly entitled to one of the six members that should be given Hast and West Kootenay. Hall Mines Meeting. All extraordinary general meeting of the Hall Mines, Limited, was held in London on March 22, the attendance being limited. The mooting was convened with the object of sanctioningLcertain alterations in the articles of association, proposed by the board, and necessary for the company to succeed in its application for an official quotation by the London Stock Exchange. Sir Joseph Trntcli explained those of the alterations which were not quite clear, and iu due course the various resolutions were put^ to the meeting and adopted uuauimbusly.', They will come up for confirmation at a subsequent meeting. The chief alterations were the provision in Article I oUI CeJ E BRANCH MARKETS .....

Hindi & Campbell, of Spokane, heavily interested in milling properties in this district, have purchased three placer claims in the Klondyke, paying $150,000 therefor. Last week the Lo Roi shipped 1.0!):) tons of ore to North port. Rossland exppols to have 1.200 men working in its mines by next fall, due to the inori.HMid force under the Jhitish America Corporation control.
