WILL RUSH RAILWAY TO HEAD OF CANAL A press dispatch from Eastern Canada, dated Oct. 7, tells of a turn in the tide of affairs political which, in the shadow of a general Dominion election, is regarded by leading newspapers and politicians as an indication of what will happen, especially in Ontario, when the Laurier administration makes its appeal to the electorate. It was a provincial bye-election in i the constituency of Brockville which had been straight Liberal for so long (over thirty years) that it was thought nothing could shake its faith. The constituency had been opened by the resignation of Hon. Geooge P. i Graham who has been taken into the Domin'on cabinet, and E. P. Donovan whom he had defeated at the previous general election, was again the Conservative candidate, with Mr. Lewis opposed to h;m. Mr. Donovan fought his campaign on wide political lines, and his success is regarded more as a victory for the Conservative party than as a personal triumph. He had the influence of the Ottawa government strong against him, and he won cut by 300 majority. Heavy Fog in Vancouver. A telegraphic despatch from Vancouver says that the Steamer Tartar collided with the Charmer in a heavy fog in English bay, and that the bow of the latter was stove in. The Charmer was able to make port ^ without assistance. No one was injured. The dispatch also says the fog was so thick in Vancouver that people could scarcely see each other on the streets, and drivers of vehicles were compelled to put bells on their horses as a precaution against collisions. Ladies Meet and Sew. The ladies of the Prebyterian church held a sewing bee at the residence of Mrs. C. A. Cox on Thursday afternoon of this week, and fin;shed a number of pretty pieces of handiwork which will be offered for sale at the fair to be held on Halloween. The ladies present were: Mrs. T. S. Glassford, Mrs. A. W. Neill, Mrs. (Dr.) Morgan, Mrs. D. H. Riddell, Mrs. E. L. Gill and Mrs. C. A. Cox. President Shaughnessy Makes an Emphatic Announcement—Construction Will Soon be Commenced From This End. BANK MANAGERS QUICKLY CHANGED H. K. Wright Receives Sudden Notice and Leavs For Vancouver. "The extension of the E. &, N. raii- way line from Wellington to Alberni will be prosecuted with all possible speed." Such is the statement made by Sir Thomas Shaughnessy, president of the Canadian Pacific Railway company, in Victoria and Vancouver this woek. It was expected that before he made his announcement, Sir Thomas would have taken a trip over the line to satisfy himself of the possibilities of the proposition, but evidently work has been advanced to that stage where no further information about feasib:lity J of routes or prospects of profitable traffic is required, and he did not consider it necessary to take a personal view of the situation. All along the surveyed route there are already signs of increased activity, and it will not be long till this makes itself directly felt in Alberni. Frank Shepherd's party is to be d'vided into two forces, and additional men are now being employed. One of the parties will move further this way to do location work, while the other will continue operations in the neighborhood of the present camp. H. H. Browne's party of locators which was moved a short distance east last week to do a little revisionary work, will, in all probability, be moving camp to a point this side of the summit some time next week. It is expected that the work of location from the summit down to the head of the canal will be finished before the first of next year, and that as soon as it is constiuction work will be commenced at this end.

There was a hyu. potlatch on the Sechart Indian reserve, on the north side of the Somas river, about a mile from town, this week. It was commenced on Monday morning, and brought to a conclusion on Wednesday afternoon when the chief entertainer, Johnny Yucum, and his friends had reached the limit of the funds provided for the joyful occasion. The Indians of the Hoputishet reserve, which is close to town, on this side of the river, were the guests of the Secharts during the festivities, and there was something doing all the time, day and night. It was not one of those weird and tragic potlatches such as were indulged in before the provincial police established their civilizing influence over the tribes. It was, comparatively a mild affair, where nothing more exciting than a rasping chorus of voices with a torn torn accompaniment, some bloodless dances and a pole climbing competition were on the programme of attractions, and the many white people who visited the scene were disappointed. The most exciting feature of the period of events was the pole climbing competition which has a smack of the old times about it. The occasion of the potlatch was the arrival at the age of womanhood of Yucum's daughter, and from this time on she is expected to have a number of admirers. In the likelihood of there being more than one suitor when the time of decision arrives, the pole that was used in this competition will be re-planted and i greased, and the brave who can outdo his rivals in the climbing act will also be the winner in love. Yesterday there was another pot- j latch, but on a much smaller scale. Yucum had money and friends with money, so the purse was large and the refreshments unlimited while the entertainment lasted. One of the guests who is distinguished by the euphonious and sweet-scented name of "Cultus Bob," took particular note of one thing, and that was that Yucum did not have to pay the whole bill himself. Bob would have a potlatch every day if his friends would supply the cash, and while the Indians were in the mood he discovered that one of his daughters had also arrived at the age of womanhood. Bob was disappointed in the support he received, but he determined to play the game out if he had to stand it all alone. The result was that Bob's guests were few. All he had to give away was a few biscuits and some tea which was nothing more or less than the average white woman enjoys every afternoon she drops in to see how her neighbor's family is progressing sociably, and this was no temptation to the indians who had been sumptuously fed by Charlie Yucum, and every one of whom carried away a present, ranging in value from one to ten dollars. Cultus Bob is reported to have made a couple of heroic efforts to secure a supply of lemon extract and Florida water which, as liquid refreshment, might have been a strong drawing card, but the dealers in such goods didn't want his money. As a potlatcher Cultus Bob is not among the top notchers. Tees Arrives The steamer Tees was held outside the canal by fog most of last night, and arrived about 9 o'clock this morning on its way to Victoria. Mrs. A. LaBelle and Miss Mary Drinkwater took passage for the Capital City, and Judge J. M. Hawthorne and George Brown for Haye's Landing. Business is done quickly and on short notice in banking circles sometimes nowadays, and an illustration of this occurred in Alberni yesterday afternoon. H. K. Wright, the manager of the branch of the Royal Bank of Canada, expected to be relieved next week in order that he rnigh' proceed to Vancouver to take ch Oo of the head branch there in the absence of F. T. Walker who is on a prolonged sick leave. At 3 o'clock yesterday afternoon he received a telegram from C. A. Crosby, supervisor of British Columbia branches, who was in Nanaimo, to be prepared to turn the bank over to W. R. H. Prescott, who had been selected ! as his successor here, at 5 o'clock, and i to leave for Vancouver the same evening. About 5:30 an automobile came rush- : ing into town, and the passengers were: C. A. Neil, assistant-general manager, Montreal; C. A. Crosby, and Mr. Prescott and his wife. The party, accompanied by Mr. Wright, visited New Alberni, returned to the Arlington hotel here, had dinner, and by 7 o'clock Messrs. Neil, Crosby and Wright were on their . way to Vancouver. Mr. Prescott the new manager, was married recently to Miss Ethel Raymond, of Vernon, daughter of George Raymond, who some years ago was owner of the Wilson House in Nanaimo, and who is well known to many people in Alberni. The bride is an accomplished and amiable lady who will be a pleasant acquisition to Alberni society. Mr. and Mrs. Prescott are at present quartered at the Arlington hotel. Play This Afternoon. An association football match will be played this afternoon on Clarke's field when a team of Albernites, captained by W. R. W. Mitchell, will try conclusions with the Siwashes. Mr. Mitchell's team will be compcsed of himself, Charles Taylor, James Drinkwater, A. Drinkwater, B. Drinkwater, William Norton, Robert Erickson, H. Bishop, George Ward, George Drinkwater and George Roff. The game is billed to commence at 2 o'clock- LAND ACT. ALBERNI LAND DISTRICT. District of Clayoquot.

The Pioneer News naturally knows less about the plans of the C. P. R. than Sir Thomas does, but nevertheless it is on record as having made a sinrlar announcement many days ahead of him. "COX CAN'T WAIT" Senator Cox has spoken, and that to a large extent settles the question of where the Dominion government stand?, and will stand, on the question of unrestricted Oriental immigration. At a luncheon given recently in his honor at Calgary, he said he was convinced, looking at the general welfare of the whole country, that the true policy at this particnlar time was to open our doors and encourage labor from every country. Senator Cox is tha gentleman who stands behind the scenes and manipulates things when the Laurier government is putting on a drama for the general public. The people have not had to rush upon the stage to discover this. The senator is an impatient j man. He can't wait. He exposes | himself. He does not want to have this labor immigration made a political issue, he says, and he appeals to both parties to think alike and as he thinks on the question. The appeal comes a little late. The issue has already been made. The Grand Trunk Pacific Railway company wants Japanese, Chinese, Hindus and all other races that have among them men who can be handled on the slave trade principle, to build its road, and to people who have eyes to see it is as plain as daylight that this is why such hordes of these undesirables have been rushed into this country of late. The chief factors of the Liberal party realize that the people are becoming wise to the scheme, and they are making all sorts of desperate efforts (Hon. William Templeman being conspicuous for his stupidity) to shift the responsibility. But it is of no use. Senator Cox, with his characteristic impatience, objects to the door swinging on its hinges, and will have it thrown wide open and nailed to the wall, if such a thing is within the limit of his extensive power. He knows how far the Lan.iier government is in his power, and he can be relied upon to make the best of this knowledge. As we said before, the railway is coming. There was a bye-election in Brock- ville recently, and from the Hon. Emmerson to the Hon. Templeman the result made the whole Liberal line shiver. It is even betting in Alberni sporting circles that Billy Sloan, who is dead to the world, as far as this constituency is concerned, will not wait for the first mail car over the E. & N. extension to bring in an announcement of his return to life. We have nothing further to prescribe for any man who is interested in Alberni and is troubled with cold feet. The man who needs anything more is in the chronic class, and could not keep his pedal extremities warm if he had them turned upwards towards the sun while the thermometer is registering 102 in the shade. Sir Thomas Shaughnessy, president of the Canadian Pacific Railway company, has announced that the E. & N. line will be extended to Alberni, and LAND ACT-ALBERNI LAND DISTRICT. District of Clayoquot.

The New Alberni Social club has made elaborate preparations for its inaugural dance to be given in Water- house's hall on Tuesday evening of next week. In the way of providing music and refreshments nothing that would go to make the function an unqualified success, will be left undone. The people of the old town are invited, and it is expected that a large number will be present. George Smith, C. E., returned to town on Sunday last, and will be engaged on survey work in this neighborhood for the next few weeks. Dr. A. P.

He says that this locality has the attention of investors in Vancouver and Victoria, and that since President Shaughnessy has, by his emphatic announcement removed all doubt as to immed ate construction of the E. & N. extension to New Alberni, there will be a continual stream of people looking for opportunities to turn over money.

WOLF ATTACKS HERD OF CALVES Jim Hills Makes a Good and Earns the $5.00 Bounty. Shot Dr. T. L. Davis, the eminent surgeon of Nanaimo, and Prof. Eugene Arnold, the Paderewski of British Columbia, drove into town on Thursday afternoon. The professor is the Vancouver Island representative of the Sun Life Insurance company of Canada, and came here on business, while the doctor was in search of nothing more or less valuable than healthful recreation. Compar'ng notes on their departure the doctor and the professor agreed that for business and pleasure Alberni is the most fruitful field in the Domin'on. Because of the ravages of panthers and wolves, deer are becoming noticeably scarcer in this district. Meanwhile these sneak ng beasts of destruction are multiplying or, owing to a shortage of the beautiful animals on which they prey, are becoming much bolder. Following the killing of a panther that was trying to rob a piggery, about a mile from town, last week, a three hundred pound wolf ventured on to the McKenzie ranch, Beaver Creek, on the afternoon of Tuesday last and, within 150 yards of the house, attacked a small herd of young calves. It had wounded one before the attention of the people of the ranch was attracted to its presence. Jim Hills who had called at the McKenzie home, and had a rifle with him, was the first to get a shot at the wolf, and the' bullet landed right between its eyes making a second shot unnecessary. Mr. Hills and J. McKenzie drove into town with the carcass, and claimed the provincial government bounty of $5. "Stf GOOD WORK ON TRAIL. [L. S.] JAMES DUNSMU1K, Lieutenant-Governor: CANADA.

William Moore, a well known mining man, of Nelson, was in town for four days this week, looking for a proposition in which he couid invest some money. He was told before coming here that it would be a waste of time, but after seeing a little for himself he believes there are some rich copper properties on the canal. He left on Thursday for Phoenix where he has a deal to complete, and expects to return here within two weeks when he will be prepared to talk business to some of the claim owners hereabouts. He took a number of samples of Alberni ore Progress of Work Between Bamfield and Carmanah. Twenty miles of the Dominion government trail from Bamfield to Carmanah, are about completed, and according to reports from the scene of construction the work so far has all been done in a thorough manner, and is being prosecuted with commendable speed by the men engaged on it. There are altogether about sixty men, with three foremen and a supei-- intendent, on the job. Work was commenced last June, and considering the difficulties that had to be overcome, there is little time that cannot be accounted for in the work so far accomplished. Work was started at Bamfield, and the men have been following a surveyed line almost directly east to Carmanah, a distance of about forty miles. John Chesterman's gang is still working towards Pachena Light, while William Randall's and A. Vanden's men are further east. The trail is about eight feet wide, and the bridges about 14 feet. Chief Constable Cox, of Alberni, who was over the route this wetk collecting poll tax, says that the trail, as far as completed, is fit for smooth and fast travel, and that all the bridges are well constructed. The best class of men to be had is engaged on the work. Joseph McDonald, of Victoria, is the superintendent.
