Hie capital of the company be iuoreasod to .£80,000 by thc creation of 15,000 new shares of CI each, to lie called proforonce shares, to whieh there shall lie attached the special rights and privileges following, that is to say: 1, The holders of such preference shares shall bo entitled to receive out of tlio profits of tbe company as n first chargo, a cumulative preferential dividend at the rate of ten per cent, per annum of the capital for the time being paid up ou such shares respectively. "2. Whenever the profits of tbe cum- pany iu respect of any year shall be more than Buttlelont to pay tbe _*ro-' feroutial dividend aforesaid to tho close of such year, lho holders of the preference shares shall be entitled, in addition to ibe said preferential dividend, to participate in tbo surplus pari passu with tho holders of the othor shares. .'1. In tho event of the winding up of the company, the holders of thc preference shares shall be entitled to have tlio surplus assets applied first in paying olf the capital paid up on tho preference shares held by them respectively. Secondly, in paying off tho arrears fif any) of ihe preferential dividend aforesaid to tho commencement of the winding up, and thereafter to participate ratoably with the holders of other shares in tlio residue (if any) of suoh surplus assets which shall re main after paying olf the capital paid up ou such other shares. 1. If the preference shares aforesaid shall be converted into stock, such stock shall bo called preference stock, and the rights and privileges attached to tho preference shares shall, as nearly as may lie, be attached to tbo preference stock. 5. Every holder of preference shares shall have ono vote for every preference share held by him. (i. Except as heroin provided, ths proforonce shares shall bo subject to the regulations contained in the articles of association, as if forming part of tbe original ordinary capital of the company. Dr. Baker, who presided, said tho matter having been fully explained when they last mot, ho would confine himself simply to moving the formal resolutions. Tho present shareholders could apply for as many of the prefer- once shares as thoy wished to take up, Thoy must have 10,000 preference shares taken up or lose their proporty for want of Unishiug thoir work: otherwise, there was only reconstruction before them. Of course, if tho Issuo wus not sulllcicntly subscribed, the amount that bad been contributed would be returned. As tbey wauled money immediately, 2s.

Wilkinson, who came over fcr tho Jublloo in tho Interests of the Vancouver World, ttie most important journal on Hie mainland of British Columbia, litis given his impressions to a representative of tin* British Columbia Roviow which ho has gleaned during his visit. Whon ho lirst arrivod lie was somewhat disappointed at. the little interest wbicb was taken in the mines of Southern British Columbia, but Ihe increase of interest has of late been very considerable. He spoke in the highest terms of tho successful efforts which an* boing made by the Canadian Pacific Railway, under the very able muuagoinonfc of Mr. Archer Baker, to bring the great mineral wealth of British Columbia aud Outario prominently before tho public. Concerning Hie Jubilee und the cordiality which it engendered among till members of the Empire, ho spoko most enthusiastically, uc.Mng that: 'Tbey will hardly.believe me when I got back and tell thorn of the hospitality which was extended to me by complete strangers, for they told nu* I should find folk in the old country 'stiff.' " Mr. Wilkinson, bow- over, is the possessor of such tin luter- ■sting and genial personality that he lluds friends everywhere When ho talks about tho country of which ho is so fond ho excites the keenest desire in the minds of his hearers to pay that lair hind a visit, so he will probably meet .several of his new acquaintances in British Columhia shortly. His last words were: "There is room for thousands, and lol them only gol a linipse of Southern British Columbia, and there will be no desire to go norlli to the Klondike/' Review.

Phis is whal the Grand Forks Miner says: "There 3oemsto be a prevailing opin- ionamong a number of the loading papers of tho province that the Turner government is tottering to its fall, and that tho premier is endeavoring to re- irgauizo bis cabinet. Just whom lie has slated to succeed Col. Baker aud Mr. Martin is beyond the apprehension of till, and lho belief's expressed that tlio premier will lie unable tn induce any one to join his administration who will briuglum auy real strength, While there seems to bo a division of opinion ou this point thore appears to be no doubt in the minds of many that ho will be turned down ut lho next sos- sionof tho provincial legislature. Sucli being the case, the question arises in the minds of every voter and taxpayer in British Columbia, who is tho bost man to succeed him, and in disotisslug tho question tlie Rossland Minor suggests Hie name of Hewitt Bostock'. M. P., as in every way qualified lo succeed Mr. Turner There is no question but that Mr. Bostock has made .in admirable member of parliament and during his short career has Iready endeared himself fo his oon- tituenls, aud if ho will consent to the .so of his name, under his leadership the interiorof the province would rally to his support with a solid delegation, while in Victoria and other island constituencies he is held in high ostootu, ami there somas to bo uo doubt but Hint, ho would carry the capital city against, anyone who might stand st him, oven if it was the premier himself. Prom Vancouver aud Now Westminster conies flic roport that tho liberals of that section eau be do- ponded on aud there seems tube no question but that Mr. Bostock hus only to be named to rally around him all the reform forces of the provinco.

Higglns, speaker of the legislative assembly, on tlie street, il Mail reporter look advantage of the opportunity In interview him ou the provincial political situation in which his name lias figured so prominent ly recently. "You are the llrsl person to nsk me about, this since 1 arrived in town, and tho first, person to whom l have said anything about politics." said Mr. Higgins. when the object of the en (piiry was broached. -And even to you," lie continued. "1 have nothing I" say, except, thai. I am uol, dismissing the provincial political situation; that things are coming out. all right, and that, the time for action will soon come around." Pressed for more delluite information about his reform movement, ho absolutely refused to he drawn out, aud, ill Ills affable way. kept whal he knew on the subject (and the Mail father thinks lie knows something) In himself. But more about Mr. Spoakor Higgins wil! be hoard before another election has cume and gono. Kotnnay Mail.

The decision ofthe magistrate was that. Peter should serve a term of three months at, hard labor and pay all costs some 830; also, for being drunk al hard labor. Although Peter has been dealt with very leniently by the authorities, we aro glad to see a determination to stamp out this evil of intemperance on j 1 he pari of I udjnns ;md others I bat loo . frequently are found on tbo resorva tion.

A tlcnlof no little importance litis just boon consummated bySoattlo merchants, and manufacturing houses, ns n result oE whioh merchandise to the vuluo of 80,20(1 was disposed of to Brit isii Columbia parties. The enterprise in wii icli these articles aro to be used is nt the beginning of its career, and it is safe to say that in its future operations much or itstrndo wilt be directed to tliis city. Tho company is called tlio Toslln A Yulam Transportation Com puny, and includes as ils principle stookholdors Jamos Dunsmuh*, Horace Davie and W. JI. Yorko, nf Viotorla.

The electric light plant will be used to light tho steamer. The craft will be built especially for unvigiting tlie upper waters of the Yukon basin. She will be 12-j foot long, and will have a carryiug capacity of 80 tons. She will be flat-bottomed, drawing only two feet of water. Tho organization of tho Victoria company, with ample capital back nf it. and tho opouingoEa new route tn tlie Klondike are fontnros nf the rapid do- volopmout of the now-.'old producing district. The provincial government has already expended about 83,000 on tho trail from Telegraph crook to Teslin hike. It has authorized the expenditure of £:i.(\»o additional this full and ;i further appropriation is expected by the legislature nf British Columbia this winter, Evidently tho British Columbians nre determined tn be pioneers in the development of the new gold Holds, with the intention of reaping all tho advantages iuoident thereto. The provincial government already has two men ougngod lu sounding tho waters of tho Hootaliuqua and Lewis rivors with a view tn ascortalulug what, if any, dangers to navigation exist. It is believed that theriver is suscoptiblo to navigation by light draft steamers as t'tir up as Teslin lake. It isa pari ul' the plan of ihe British Yukon Development Company lo operate a lino nf steamers on Ilie lnke and thence to the Yukon by the Hootaliuqua river. Mr. Yorko was soon at the Hotel Northern last night. He said: "I wish you would bo careful not to say anything that would induce a rush of pooplo tn tlmt country this full. Several men aro goingiuto tho Yukon by Hint route, as they escape climbing the mountain raugo to the north, via the Ohilcoot and While passes. Al present lho puck trains from Tolograph creek tire not largeouough tn carry tho outfits nf vory many men. When the trail is opened and the government wagon road is finished, the vou.o will be the most fonsiblo one on tho map. The maximum elevation on the trail to Teslin lako is less than 1,000 foot. Besides, it is a good grass counlry and thoro is good timber. When tiie road is finished we will be able to take men over tho trail hy stave line nnd in a hurry. 1 believe wo will be able to deliver miners lo the Yukon at 8200, anil 20 cents por pound for freight. At present packing over the Irail is 25 cents por pound." Mr. Yorko. purchased two onginos and the sawmill plant Irom Mitchell, Lewis and Slaver. Prom Hie North- western Fixture Company ho secured Ilie plant, nnd Irnm the Vulcan Iron Works nrderod the onginos nnd boilers Tor tin. steniuers.

Aug. 11).- The Klondike craze is just beginning tn manifest itself hero. Many will wait aud go in the spring. ,T. B. Powell, who is in the lity awaiting tho arrival of the presi lent of tho Great Canadian Develop mont and Mining Company, is surrounded al all times by eager men. Mr. Powoll is manager of the company which has undertaken the building o{ agon road from Bdmouton into the gold fields. The survey party loaves the 1st of September from Edmonton, Xo one will be allowed but mon who will work I'm* tho company, but ninny aro eager to go. line woman insists on going. She is IS yoars or age, but it is not probable she will gain her point. The men will work all winter building bridges, etc. Stables will be built evory twelve miles so that travelers an change horsos, thus covering LOO miles oi- more por day. Cayusos, reindeer and dogs will be used. Every 100 miles houses will lie built where travelers can vest and sleep. Stores will be scattered along the route and niuply provisioned. Men will be takou into the couutry and given a year's provisions I'or 8500. Each ninn will be given a oortillcilto on tho coupon basis, and with it during the year ho can get provisions at auy of tho stores. If he wishes, he can sell his certillcato at any figure he eau, or ho can give it away. Other companies will not allow Hint. The coinpuny intends getting lho road ready by May, and then large numbers will leave evory otlior day from Edmonton. One rond will go by wny nf Polly river, ono of tho headwaters nl'the Yukon: the olher by the Liiird river, ono of tho main branches of tin*- Mackenzie river. Millions are buck of the scheme in the person of Ottawa, Montreal nml Toronto capitalists. The road has the hourly on operation nt tho Dominion government and the Cniiaditin Vncillc. railroad, Limited companies should be careful to follow out the strict letter of the law, particularly on lho paper thoy have printed on which lo transact their business. The T. Knlon Co, (limited), of Toronto, has boou sued for having nu ils billheads, advertisement!! and elsewhere doslgUtttod itself as "ltd," instead of having spelled tho word •limited" in full. Tho law is perfectly clear nud explicit, and takes no account nl' defective Spoiling nor does it permit of abrovlatlon. The word must bo (■polled in accordance with the statute. Tho case, therefore, against the firm seems peiTeetly clear. -*£__ <_. .\...>' NOTICE.. -tailed Tenders will be rucdvert liy tin (leralRiicd up lo Tliunidiiy noon, lhe 10th et HcpLeiiiher, fm maintain im. ami nperjillng the Silence's Bridge Ferry for n term uf live (fi) ' BSeellkatloitBLiin beacon ami blank form for tender-inilto execute nboml may lie till- laineil ai Mr. Clemen' Hole], Snuiiee'H HrhlBu, at Uie Government Olllce, Kmnlooiia, tit tliu limv-.nai_.it Ofllce.
