/ / *ae**i-&w&mniits*-isk\ British Columbian. VOLUME 1 NEW WESTMINSTER, B. C, THURSDAY EVENING, AUGUST 19, 1886. NUMBER 17 gailj) fritislv Columbian Tkarndar Evealu, .U«u»t Itt. law. Referring to the treaty of 1818 between Great Britain and the United States, the iS(. James Gazette says: "The fuet that the changed conditions of the fishing industries have mode the treaty work differently from what was intended by its authors, may be an excellent reason for revising it, but it is uo excuse whatever for violating its provisions; The Canadians are not averse to relax its terms for good considerations;'. The Americans made' a bad bargain in. 1818s aiul they cannot expect its to endorse their pretension to rescind it for nothing. Canada is technically right, and she is entitled to our support." The, Colonist says that Mr. J. J". Withrow, Walter S. Lee, W. J. Matthews, and ex-Aid. Moore; when in Victoria, had au interview with the Hon. Mr. Smithe and Hon. Mr. Robsou with the object pf obtaining government assistance towards procuring an exhibit of British Columbia products at the exhibition of the Industrial and Arts Association in Toronto. Toronto is the commercial us well us the political capital of Ontario, and it. is so central and so uocossible that no -more appropriate .place in the Dominion could be selected for an interpovinoiul exhibition. We are glad, therefore, to find that the application of these gentlemen wus received favorably by the government, and it is to be hoped the scheme will be carried out successfully. There appears to be considerable uncertainty with1 regard to the pricee to be paid for'this season's wheat crop. A few weeks ago tite prospect for high figures seemed to be capital, but later and more fav orable reports from the Western States have had rather a bearish tendency on the market, and Chicago quotations are unquestionably low. Whether or not there will be an improvement later on it is diflicult to predict The present price is so low thut a further drop can scarcely be expeoted, and it' there is tlie shortage in the general crop that has been reported an upward movement is not unlikely. Still, us a rule, it is wisdom to sell early. This was the policy pursued by. our farmers with the crop of 1885, and tiiey got better prices last fall and winter than they could get now. If a' reasonable price is offered, they will dot go far astray if they pursue a similar policy this year, while early returns from the harvest fields are certainly in the general interests of the country. There is at least the satisfaction of knowing that, with the improvement in the quality of the grain, the farmers are sure to get better prices for the crop bf 1886 than for that bf the last three or four years.- The samples shown are declared to be almost invariably excellent.—Winnipeg Sun. The German press has completely changed front on the Batoum incident. At first it was not Germany's affair, it was solely England's; the feebleness of government in Mr. Gladstone's hands hod brought it on. But now the Cologne Gazette, which then defended Russia's proceeding, turns round and advocates the English annexation of Egypt as a set-oil' against Russia's closing of Batoum. The truth is, Germany is beginning to recognize that the European branch of the eastern' question is primarily a German affair, not an English one—the Danube is it German river, and Russian supremacy yt the Black Sea would threaten other besides English interests. Accordingly, the usual annual meeting of the three Emperors gives place this yeur to a meeting of the Emperors of Germany and Austria alone. Austria hits discovered that the Russian interpretation of the compact between the three Empires is that Russia shall lay down tho law, and that Germany 'bull support her in coaxing Austria to yield*, nud wheiiever, as iu the Bulgarian and Greek questions, Russia's aims are widely divergent from those of Austria^und. she fails to obtain submission to her views, she follows an. independent line of her own. Hence, naturally, the alliance has come to un end; nnd it is' useful to note in this changed nspeot of affairs that the Paris Figaro announces that arrangements are being made for a conference between M. de Freyci- net and M. de Giers, the French and Russian ministers for foreign affairs.-—Whi Week T\ JIIcI.KAN, JI.

The convention, a report of whose proceedings occupies much of our telegraphic spnce to-day, is one of great influence and importance. The per sistouce and generosity of the advocates of Irish liberty in America has been quite remarkable. While the dynamite wing of the patriots lias made itself detested everywhere, the great majority of Irish-Americans, who have counselled the employment of legitimate weapons only, have steadfastly given their influence and their money to the bloodless battle iu the Uritish commons whicli Mr. Gladstone so nearly carried to bloodless victory. The proceedings of the convention will be watched with great interest. Cause and Effect. When Miv Gladstone introduced his home rule bill, it will bo remembered that the Orangemen of Ireland were greatly exercised and declared that they were prepared to take up arms in defence of the integrity of the empire. The attitude of the "loyal Irish Orangemen" was seized upon by Tory politicians ns a card that might be played with advantage to their own cause. Lord Randolph Churchill started post haste for Belfast, not to restrain the belligerent sentiments that were even then threatening the public peace, but to add fuel to the Hame. Lord Randolph made a speech the evident purpose of Which was to strengthen the Orangemen of Belfast in their determination to resist by force any attempt to apply to Ireland a scheme of home rule such as had been proposed by Mr. Gladstone. The words spoken by Chur chill might have. been harmless agencies for the accomplishment of a political end under ordinary circumstances, but in the circumstances then existing they were dnngerous and inexcusable. It is quite possible that the recent riots and ex-! cesses in Belfast, which have shocked the whole world, are due in part at least to the foolish and unpatriotic act of Churchill. It may lie said with the utmost correctness at least thnt the Tory leader lost an opportunity such as he may never have again to rise above party stratagem and put the highest interests of the country before personal ag gmhdisement. His failure to foi low the disinterested ndvice which his better judgment must have suggested leaves him open to the charge of being responsible to some extent for the Belfast riots. Store to Let.

Vnn Waters, oi Seattle, who hits lieen nppointed by tlie Canadinn Pneilit! Railway general passenger ami freight ngent for V, S. ports on Puget Sound, in his nn- noum-ement to the people of tliat important territory, published in the ftpst-Jntelliysnecr, says: "Afteryears of discrimination and injustice at the hands of railway corporations, the Puget Sound district hus nt last received that recognition and respect which it has so long and richly deserved." The people of Puget Sound nre to be congratulated on what tthey have renson to regard as a commercial emancipation. We believe tlie improved condition of things will but convince them of the necessity of having more complete und efficient communication with the 0. P. ft. by connecting themselves by railway with this city. The accomplishment of tliis scheme is but a question of time, and the sooner the work is undertaken uud completed the sooner will the immense country lying between become settled and mnde wealth •producing. If our American neighbors will but consider the benefits which must accrue from having such a connection, and go to work with tlieir churncteristic energy and ability towards securing it, we shall not wnit long for the railway. The project of connecting the western termini of the Canadinn Pacific Railway and the Northern Pacific Railway by a. line reaching this city from Washington Territory is not new. It has been put forward more than once, and has sometimes almost reached the point where success might lw safely predicted. But hitherto a misapprehension of the results of such a connection lias beeu allowed to defeat the scheme, and its promoters hnve suffered loss and discouragement. The people of this city, and the people of the fertile lauds which lie bi-tween us nud tlie boundary, nro most anxious that* it should be accomplished, and they may be relied upon to co-operate in any movement looking in that direction.

"The Colonies and India says: We understand tlmt the Chinese government proposes to send a commission to various British colonies, Canada included, to roport upon the social condition of Chinese residents. Tlie investigations of the commission in Canada will obviously be chiefly, if not entirely, confined to the proviuce of British Columbia. Ayer's Sarsaparilla, is designed for tliose who need a medicine to purify their blood, build them ,up, increase their appetite, and rejuvenate their wholo ays* stem. No other preparation so well meets this wait, it touches the exact spot. Its record of forty years is one of constant triumph over disease. Arrested.—Mi'. Sam.. Greer, who is not unknown to the courts, was arrested, yesterday becauso he resisted tho sheriffs officers who were taking possession of his lot at Vancouver for the O.P.R. He broke away from his captors and bounced tho wholo posse off his promises. Accident.—A little daughter of Mr. J. B. Henderson's, while playing on a bridge on Provost street, near Trinity church, yeBterday, fell off and dislo* cat 1 her shoulder. The injury waa atte 'ed to by Dr. Molnnes, and the child will soon be all right again. Strange to say, ahe jumped up after the accident and ran home almost as if nothing had happened. Canadian Pacific Tea Route.— One thing that will help the Canadian Pacific railway, says the Mail, is the circumstance that a long sea journey impairs the quality of tea. If the route by way of Canada from China to London is 2,000 milea shorter than the route via the Suez canal, aiid if 3,000 milos ot land travel forma part of the Canadian route, folly 5,000 mites of ocean will be saved by the importation of teas from China ond Japan via the Canadian Paoifio. Canoe Pahh Entrance.—There is now a good deal of traffic through Canoe Pass, and great difficulty is experienced in entering the pass on account of the absence of any buoys or beacons to mark the channel. It has often happened that tugs and small vessels have hnd to remain out ou the shoals all night exposed to the exigencies of the weather, because they wero tillable to find the entrance. The channef could be marked by buoys or piles at a moderate expense, and the benefit to trade would be very great. By taking Canoo Pass the voyage . to Mud Bay is shortened by about 15 miles. Further Tea Shipments.—Messrs. Fraser & Co., of New York and Yokohama, tho great tea shippers, liave issued a circular stating that' the Brit* ish bark Carrie Delap has been placed on the/ berth in Hiogo and Yokohama to load teiw for Vancouver, B. C, in transit for eastern cities over the Canadian Pacific Railway. Tliis will be tlie veaael for August sailing, the rate being the sume as for the previous three ships. The cargo of the W. B. Flint is now being delivered. Tlie Fiom P. Stafford sailed from Yokohama on the 10th of July, and is due at Vancouver, while the third ship, the Zoroya, sailed on the 3rd of August. The freight earnings to the Canadian Pacific from the above three ships will in tho vicinity of hnlf a million dollars. A Toronto despatch says that Messrs. Meis- son tfc Morrow of that city have been advised of the withdrawal of the Cyprus iu Shanghai and the placing on the berth in Hiogo and Yokohama of the Carrie Delap to load with teas, etc., for Vancouver, in transit for enst- orn cities over the 0. P. R. Return of the Sockeyes.—- Laat night aiid to-day the river was full of sockeyes. Boats last night took as many ns 120 each, and one boat thia forenoon had taken 00. One of Mr. Laidlaw's boats last night took GO fish at a single drift. Mr. Vianen, whose experience ought.to be yaluablo, is of opinion that tliese fish passfld up the river during high water to the customary spawning grounds. But they went up too early, and are now returning for the purpose of awaiting the time when they will arrive at maturity. As soon as they reach salt water in the river, he aays, they will turn bnck again, and that is the reason why. they are not found near the mouth. Mr. Vianen is also of opinion that the practice of placing nets on the flats at the river mouth will prove disastrous to the river fishing. The tish, finding their progress up uie river barred by obstructions, may go off elsewhere to spawn, und tlie river will be forsaken, If this opinion is correct tho mutter should receive prompt attention, ' for it would bo an immense loss to the river and the whole country if tlie fish took offence and left us. Mr. Vianen thinks tlie present unexpected run of fish may continue for some time. Unfortunately tlie Indians, upon whom the caiinerymen depend so much for catching, have nearly all gone away and in the event of tlie fish remaining it may be diflicult to procure sufficient help to catch them. Northwest Coast News.—Reports received by the mail steamer Barbara Boscowitz, whioh arrived in Victoria from the northwest coast on Tuesday, state that the salmon pack of the Skeena district is one of the beat on record. The Skeena cannery heads the Hat with 10,000 cnaea; Inverness, 10,500; Britisli American, 11,000; Alert Bay, 1,300; Rivera Inlet, 15,- 000, and Metlakatla, 8,000: total, 01,- 800 oasea. The aalmon were never ao plentiful in the Skeena before. Mr. Helgesen nut up 800 harrela Bait aalmon at Rivors Inlet. Just before the departure of the Bescowitz, the achooner Skeena had arrived fromMas* Bet and reported that the Indians of Graham Island, of the Queen Charlotte group, had refused permission to a pnrty of men, representing the Y«- koun Valley Coal Mining Co,, to prospect for coal. They demanded of the Kov, M,r. Harrison that he should protect their rights, aa Mr. Duncan protected the interests of the Metlakat- lans, threatening thnt if he did uut. do so hit*, position would be more unpleasant than it had been. The ballot boxes used in the Cassiar election arrived at Port Simpson just before the steamer luft and wore to be taken to Metlakatla tu ho openud antl counted on the following day. There ia therefore nothing known aa to the re suit of thu contest botween Messrs. Dempster mid Grant. An estimate of the-vote polled at Lurue Creek, Aberdeen, Inverness, Metlakatlah and Naas gives Mr.' Dempster 27 or 28 and Mr. Grant 14 or 15. The latter gentleman will require a majority of 14 at the other pulling places to he elected. The messenger who brought the ballot boxes down to the coast reported that the miners of the interior were u unit for Grant. There aro a number of varieties of yorus.

Boston, Aug. 12.—There was au excited group of importers at the custom house yesterday. They were large dealers in canned mackerel, a branch of business of more than usual importance at this time owing to the great scarcity of mackerel iu American waters, and they were. annoyed by the somewhat arbitrary and unexpected action of the local customs authorities in raising the duties levied ou canned mackerel from 25 to 100 per cent, ad valorem. The duty uu these goods has long been levied in accordance with tho ruling of the department at Washington at 25 per cont. On this basis tho dealers have buen rushing importations from the British provinces where mackerel are plenty, and on tliis basis large contracts for future delivery havo been entered into. Suddenly aud without warning the customs oflicers decided tHat importations of canned mackerel must be governed by nnother decision of the department at Washington which prescribes a duty of 100 per dent, upon importations of canned meats. A teat cose ia to be made and in the meantime dealers muat go ou filling orders at a very serious loss. How lo fell a flirt's Age.

London, Aug. 19.—At the hour parliament met a depressing and persistent rain was falling, and the crowd gathered about Westminster buildings was small. Some enthusiasm was displayed on the arrival of various prominent lenders, but it was generally faint. Thc attendance in the house of commons was largo. Many members arrived before they had breakfasted In order to secure good scats. The Queen's speech was a*- follows: "My lords and gentlemen: I liave summoned you to meet at this unusual season for the transaction of indispensable business. The session of lost parliament was interrupted before the ordinary work of the year had been completed in order that tlio souse of my people might be taken ou certain important proposals with regard to the govornment of Irelani Tho result of that appeal has been to confirm tho conclusion to which the late parliament had come. The provisional naturo of the arrangement mode by lost parliament for the publio charges of the year renders it Inexpedient to postpone any further consideration of necessary financial legislation. Gentlemen of the honst- of commons: The estimates, which were submitted to tlio last parliament, and only Rartlally voted, will be laid before you. [y lords and gentlemen: As this iB tho period of tho year usually assigned for recess, and after the prolonged nnd exceptional labor to whieh many of you have been subjected, I abstain from recommending now for your consideration any measures except those which arc essential to the conduct of the publie service during the remaining part of the financial year. I nm confident they will receive your prompt and careful attention." Chicago, Aug. 19.—The convention reassembled this morning and elected Judge Fitzgerald permanent chairman. In thanking the convention for the honor of the position he said he would certainly endeavor to give a full hearing to every delegate on any subject to come before tho convention, "I know no ring, I know no clique,1' said the speaker, "nnd I am here for united Ireland." He closed with a caution tliat delegates should have only one sentiment, and that was to prepare to fight the common enemy, and engender no feuds among themselves. II We hate her," said he, "because she hated ub and despoiled up. When she declares peace then may we, and not till theu will we, cease hating her." He closed with tliis declaration: "Wo can have, we will have, tio pence until England ceases her deadly hostility to the friends of freedom and freedom's isle." Hon. Jno. P. Finerty rose in his scat, and hts appearance was a signal for tremendous cheering. He said ho only rose to read a cablegram addressed to him; it was as follows: "Dublin; Aug. 19, To Finerty, Chicago convention, Thc manhood of Ireland is with you and trusts the convention will, by resolutfon, endorse Ireland's rights and resolve to bo free. Signed, Charles Macarthy Feeling.!' Mr. Davitt rose and said ho desired to say a word in explanation. Mr. Davitt did not question the right of any one in Ire* laud to send a dispatch from Ireland. but said Mr. Feeling had no right to speak for the people of Ireland." (Loud applause.) Mr. Finerty rose to speak. and there were loud cheers. Hynos, of Illinois, made a poiut ot order that uo motion was before the con vention,and no delegate had a right to the floor. The chair decided that thc point was well taken. Mr. Finerty then rose to a question of personal privilege, and was finally given the floor, amid considerable cnufnsion. The delegates from i New York and Hynea interrupted repeatedly. Mr. Hynes said Mr. Finerty should not Bpeak of a personal question. Cries were raised for Finerty to take the platform. "I will be heard anywhere," said Finerty. The Chair—" Mr. Finerty is no spring chicken; he. can he heard anywhere in the hall." Mr, Hynes-" I protest against Finerty sppaking," Mr. Finerty—-"I will speak." The chair admonished Mr. Finerty not to make unotlier such remark. Mr, Finerty, comparative order having been restored, said: " I nm surprised to seo the father of the laud leaguers rise in his place and qucstiou tlmt telegram." Here another scene of confusion ensued. In the midst of the uproar Mr, Finerty was heard to say: " It is wlmt wo have believed for many years, and I Bhall hold to mv views fur the freedom of Ireland to the day of my death. Mr. Feeling is not iu the league. If he holds to thnt sentiment he is certainly entitled to belong to it." As another scene of confusion ensued; Mr. Finerty declined to say anything further, aud ceased speaking. He was cheered by thc main body of thu convention. Rov, Mr. Hell, chairman ot tbe committee on resolutions, reported as follows: ."Your committee on resolutions respect fully submit the following report: Wo, the delegates of the Irish national hragtie of America in convention assembled, tu-mly believing in principles of human freedom and in the right of the people to frame their owu laws, a right which lies at the foundation of tho pros- purity and greatness of tbis republic, mid which has been advantageously ex- . tended to the colonial possessions of Great Britain, do hereby resolve: ■ (I) Thn,t we express onr henrtiest nud j most unqualified approval of national self government for Iroland; (2) thnt we heartily approve of thc course pursued - liy Charles Stewart Parnell antl bis par- - liniiu-utary associates in the Knglish . honse of commons, and we renew the ex pressiou of our entire confidence in their Wisdom nnd in their ability to achieve ' home rulo for Ireland.

Thanks to the resolute manner in whicli the Company has declined to embark upon extravagant methods of procuring business, thr working expenses of the company bear to the total income the very small ratio of between 17 and 18 per cent. A point attesting the soundness of the finances of the Company is the fact that the interest income is sufficient to pay the death claims- -which in a company of the age of tho Confederation Life is something to be proud of. The assets and liabilities are set forth in minute detail, and the tables show that, after making allowance for all possible contingencies and providing for every debt, there is a surplus of $282,109 over liabilities and capital combined. The increase in the assets in the lost year was $200,300.

It has been found to be so well adapted for statuary and monuments, that companies have been for some time established at Bridgeport, Conn., Detroit, Mich., Des Moines, Iowa, aud St. Thomas, Canada, who arc making monuments of all kinds and styles. From experiments made by these companies, it has been found that the matt-rial will stand exposure for an iiid-'iinitt' period—it is practically indestructible. White Bronze being non- corrosive and unchangeable, it is stated to be equal to gold, silver or platinum, nnd superior to copper or antique bronze, which throws off a verdigris. -The monuments are cast from refined zinc, aud are givttu their sparkling appearance by the sand blast, sand being blown against the work nnder a high pressure of steam, which cuts the surface, but docs not adhere to it. A thin film of oxide wliich forms on this bronze is iudistructible by the elements; it cannot be dissolved by water, and air cannot penetrate it, although tbe film is so thin as tn be immeasurable.
