"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/1.0187998/source.json"@en . "application/pdf"@en .

This ds the .first pause in reinforcements since the war began. Sir Redvers Buller, second in command in the field, and lord Wolseley are understood alSo to cqpisider that no more artillery is needed. > Lord Roberts' has altogether GJ2 guns, including siege pieces. Jfis quite clear that general Buller will not try anything large in the future, as he is to lose sir Charles Warren and the latter'* 10,000 men, who have been ordered to join lord Roberts. It is the expectation of the war office that lord Roberts, notwithstanding th6 necessity of garrisoning his depots, will be able to operate a constantly. increasing force, so that by tho . time tho Transvaal frontier is -.reached he_will have-70,000-troops. His telegrams dealing with nonessentials are taken to moan that he is up to some mischief, as his apparent inactivity usually spells uncommon activity. Mafeking, as a beleaguered town, attracts some Sentiment and sympathy. Nothing has- been heard from there since February 19th. There is a rumor this morning that colonel Baden-Powell has- boon relieved r but this cannot be traced to any reliable source. Britain to be Supreme.

It is easy to understand the change of front of some Conservatives 'bince they in convention de- * cided to make a bcraight Conservative fight. Thoy were not then confronted with tho immediate prospect of .1 oseph Martin for premier, and the right-about which \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD many of them havo taken may be accounted for in the changed conditions which they meet upou what most people consider the eve of an election.\" Charles Wilson is not any too firm in the saddle as leader of .the Conservatives, and\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BDin -view- of- this it might be dangerous for him to push the members of the party too far in a policy which is repugnant to them. It is not necessary to go outside of Vancouver to secure first-class evidence of open revolt from the resolution of the Conservative convention at New Westminster. No loss than three of the most prominent Conservatives of that city having expre^ed their determination of breaking away. They aio F. C. Cotton, tho leadei of the late Semlin party, Charles I']. Tisdall and mayor Garden, whoso popukuity with the party is not second to that of the present leader. In addition to these may be added every Conservative member of the late government party.

Cool, daring, resourceful ancl possessed of a wonderful power of self-restraint, lord Kitchener is the very maii for the position he fills in South Africa. He is not the soldiers' idol that lord Roberts, his. great chief, is, because Kitchener never spares his men; nor, for that \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD matter, does he spare himself. Once a project is afoot, oucc a goal is to be readied, 'Kitchener means to get there. -It is'.hardly to be wondered at that a man of this hard, cold, calculating disposition is not loved; and \"Tommy\" will never make a pet of lord Kitchener. But he admires him and phices implicit faith in his judgment, and avouIcI follow him wherever he chose to go. And what more would a commander have? Every soldier hopes for a 'chance,' and many hope in vain. Kitchener's chance came in 1SS2, when the rising tide of Mahdism threatened to sweep from end to end of the Soudan. But it was expected that the false prophet's successes were being exaggerated, and young Kitchener was deputed to make investigations and report. He dressed himself as an Arab trader and entered Omdurman, taking his life in his hands. He went among the wild Kababish and treacherous pashas,.'who, had they ouce penetrated his disguise, would havo shown him little mercy. One day he witnessed the execution of a supposed-spy in the town. The poor wretch was subjected to such \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD torture that Kitchener procured\" a tiny \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD phial of cyanide of potassium, I, which he concealed about his person. 'As'ho subsequently remarked Lo a bi other pHiccr: \"Death at thqir ha*ute f did nob fear: iu fact/I ox - } ectud it. J3utMich Mvdt'athf For two 3'ears Kitchener lived under these conditions, never knowing when lie might be brought face to face with a violent death; but all tho while communicating to the heads of the Egyptian intelligence department information of the utmost importance regarding the Mahdi aiid his movements. So strictly was his identity preserved that the British troops did not know him, and a 'Tommy' on one occasion flung a brickbat at the brave young oflieer, whom he mistook for a 'blooming negro.' The blow inflicted a rather nasty scalp wound, and had the additional result of creating a .-.-.proverb: 'Throw a brick at a negro and you'll hit the Sirdar.'. Adventures by the score happened to Kitchener in the excit- iug role of detective of spies. On one occasion two suspected Arabs were brought into the British camp and confined in the guard, tent. Shortly'afterward they were joined by a third. The trio held an animated conversation for some minutes, aud then, much to the .astonishment of the sentry, the latest arrival stepped forward and said in indisputable English: \"All right, sentry; I'm going to the general.\" The third prisoner, .was Kitchener, who by this daring ruse, coupled with-a perfect knowledge of native languages, confirmed the suspicion the fellows were dangerous' which Kirehener tugged thoughtfully at his moustache. Then he said : \"Ah, I am glad.\" Lord Kitchener does not claim to be a ladies' man. Such then is lord Roberts' right hand man iu the present campaign. The subjugation of the Boers will afford lord Kitchener ample scope for the exercise of those sterling qualities which he possesses in such an eminent degree.

Perhaps the most striking trait in lord Kitchener's character is his disinclination to put a married man in a position of responsibility under him. He appears to hold the opinion that matrimony interferes with busiuess. He backs up'his precept by example, for, as everybody knows, lord Kitchener is a bachelor. Like many a notable, personage before him, lie does not shine in the society of ladies. It is related\"that on one occasion he was presented to a certain'well-known countess of Cairo, and evened the conveisation by,asking: \"Do you find Cairo nice at this: season of the year?\" \"Delightful,\" she replied.
