No. 103. NELSON, B. C, TUESDAY, OCTOBER 2, 1906. Fifty Cents a Month STILL UNDECIDED Rales for City Power Not Yet Settled. MOTOR USERS ANXIOUS Council Meeting Attended by Large Delegation���Third Reading of Bylaw 172 Defeated. Last night's council meeting lasted two bout, and a hair, but no part of it wus wasted. Most of It was dovol- issi to 11 dismission of rates to be charged ror power, and generally of the policy to ho adopted by tho city towards customers of tbe power plant. The council met a few minutes after S with ull present except Alderman An- iliilsle. Tins niillllles of llle last meeting were road and adopted. The report of the finance committee was received ami adopted. A report from Ur. Arthur, city medical health officer, on 1'. Hums & Co.'s slaughter house, stated thut the changes proposed hy the company would make it fur less objectionable ihan ut present, hut, he thought, any slaughter house on tho present site would Inevitably be offensive to the employees of the (J. 1*. It. machine shops. The report waB referred to the hoard of health. Chief Deusy reported for September two alarms, uo losses, three drills und many inspections, llo referred to the very small loss from fires���tl 10��� dining his tenure of office. Ho ugain urged the prohibition of ashes being deposited near luflunimable material. He also strongly recommended an up- town fire hall, with adequate equipment, to avoid the delay Inevitable under present circumstances In taking apparatus up the hill. The report was referred to the fire, water aud light oommlttee. A letter from the manager of thc Niisini Iron works asked for Information as to Ihe future policy of tlie council on the supply of power, especially details as to time, coBt and method of charging, by metre or otherwise, lie also wished lo know if the eity would continue to sell water power. The eity engineer, In reply to the mayor, said thut installation would take place in from HO days to six weeks, vv. p, Dickson suggested that Information he obtained ai once as to the demand for power from each consumer. , 11 wus agreed, on the suggestion of Mr. Dickson, that December 1 he set as tlie probable date for beginning of operation of the plant. As to the question of metres Mr. Dickson and Mr. McCulloch IkiIIi recommended a minimum rate for power asked for,' and charge liy metro for the power actually consumed. The question In the letter asking if the city would continue to sell water power after electrlo power is available, revived the old question, The mayor���If we pass the bylaw Introduced last meeting no one can uf- ford to use water power. Alderman Selous���It will he |ionr business policy tor the owners of an electric power plum to continue selling water power at a lower rate In competition. No sane man win buy electrlo power when he can get waler power for a third of the cost. Many motor users were present and spoke by invitation. R. W. Hinton���We ure anxious for curly Information, afl we fear long delay in geitlng motors and transformers, which cannot be ordered until these questions are settled. The method or charging, too, vitally affects us. lr wo are charged a flat rate for our maximum use, any other form of [lower will be cheaper. Any increase of cost to ns might also cost us our outside Irade, which Is of real and considerable benefit to the city. II. 0. Travis���I entirely endorse what Mr. Hinton had said. ���I W. Holmes���We noed'cheap power If we are lo stay in business. We can't afford lo pay the rates rixed by the bylaw. Wo Hko the water power but we want moro. An informal discussion followed, which resolved Itself Into a discussion between Alderman Selous and the visitors. Alderman Selous said that the city's waler pipes would not carry any more water than ut present. Many motor users ure asking for more power. More water power cannot be given. Tliey must use some other form of power. He assured tlieni that the bylaw would nol necessarily be- conio operative on its third reading, uud that nothing would he done lo bumper motor users. Ill tills lie wus strongly supported liy Aidermftn Irving. Aldermuii Selous to Mr. Hinton��� We are trying to assure you that you will not be Interfered witii until we are lu a position to supply you with electric power and every facility for using it. W, Shackleion, addressing Aldermuii Selous, suld ihat tho proposed rates would muku Nelson power dearer than lhat or any other city and would drive uianuluctuera away Instead of attracting them. , A dialogue followed. Alderman Selous slated thut tlie grunt of the right to use water motors had robbed owners of lawns of water they were entitled to, and had enormously lucreus- ed the city's hill to the West Koolenay Power _ Light company. The muyor questioned tho statement, but W. P. Dickson endorsed it, though he could not say to whut extent. Alderman Selous���Our pipe system Is designed only for domestic service. V\\'e ure supplying molur users now. Other! are certain to apply. Shall we try to give it?, J. W. Holmes���New upplicants have- no plants or vested rights. Alderman Irving���Vou are in a worse position under iho present law. li. C. Travis���No one pays at the present rato. It. W. Hinton���They couldn't. IS'o one has money enough. Mr. .Magic���You needn't fear new applications at these rates. W. P. Dickson���There Bhould be a fixed charge for power, whether water or electric, probably lower than the one pro]iosed. T. J. Scanlon thought that the real trouble was that no motor user got tho power he was supisosed to get on account of Insufficient volume. W. P. Dickson explained that everything depended on the adjustment of the rates according to the hours for which it wub used. A rate of $3.50 per horsepower would amount only to about fsl.50 for 10 hours' use. It was then agreed lhat sMr. Isaac's letter be answered, hy fixing the dute or operations as probably December 1; that rales would be charged by metre, and that no motor user would be emharrassel by sudden change. A. K. Watter t��> 1 i i i. .ri, < 1 for a street light on the comer of Park and Ver- non streets. It was referred to the city superintendent of electric lights. Au Invitation to join the union ot municipalities and be represented at the annual meeting to bo held this year at Kamloops, was read and ac- llon deferred to the next meeting. The mayor mentioned a movement for such a union among the larger cities. Letters rrom R. A. Renwlck slated that the courthouse building would lie given to tho city on condition that the city remove It from Its present site, and put It in repair for use until the new building Is ready. The mayor salsl lhal no site hnd yel been seenred. lie thought It could be moved n block for uboui $5(111. It wus resolved to accept llie ofrer. A loiter from A. D. Munro offering the she at the corner ot Ward and Lake streets, a half lot, for $1600, was filed. A lei Ier from lhe clly solicitor Btat- ed that the hylaw governing rates for wilier and light, In or out of the clly, mlghl be amended hy the council wllh the assent of the electors. A. T. Walley applied to purchase a lot from the city's purchase near Ihe dumping ground not required by tlie city. Alderman Selous decided not to press bylaw No. 172 at present. A resolution was passed authorizing a transaction with the Hank of Montreal, ponding Uio receipt of tho proceeds of tho last debentures. Tho mayor reported having let a contract lo .1. McDonald for lho erection of the pole line In the dtp. A. L. McCulloch remarked tluit it would take some time to educate peo pie to metro rates for water, as waste Is general. The council then adjourned to Wednesday night to consider the power rales again. , POLITICAL SCOUNDREL IS ARRESTED * Most Dramatic Exposure of Political Corruption Ever Disgracing Canada Revealed at London Last Week���Statement Contains List of Paid Vtoers���Offender Declines Election. The Vancouver News Advertiser publllbefl special despatches revealing political corruption of a sensational nature fn the by-elections of 1905 in (he city of London. Ont. The arrest of one of the guilty parties took place on Saturday and the story of the conspiracy fs interesting in the extreme. It says: , The arrest of John C. o'Gormun in the first step in the exposure of the conspiracy that purchased London for Hon. C, S. ilyman In the by-election of .905. Mr. "Hilly" Gray, who fought London un Ihe National Schools issue has ben on the trail of lion. C. S. Hy- man ever since. Jerry Collins, a hotel keeper in London West, revealed part of the .Ilyman plan of campaign, and the Ontario government put Inspector Kogers on the case and the ���arrei-tt /of .(J'Uormau this afternoon is regarded as the first move In one of the most dramatic and complete exposures of iwlitical corruption ln the history of Canada's party warfare. O'Uoi'nan t/ttt a well-known and trusted Liberal in London. Recently he has beeu living in Streetsville. The crown agreed to adjourn till Monday after hearing one witness. Collins and O'Gorman are now under arrest, pending the production of flOOO ball. Jeremiah Collins, returning officer in political subdivision 82,-city of London, during the by-election of June, .9.5, when Mr. Ilyman defeated William Gray, Conservative, has made complaint of corrupt practice on the part of John O'Gorman, and other Liberal workers unknown, _yid of wholesale bribery. Collins was examined on Saturday, and said that he had been given $800 to buy votes In his subdivision. William Mulloy, who worked in London West for Mr. Hyman, would put the money in an envelope and iu the presence of' a voter would hand the envelope to Collins to hold. A list was kept and when a man was to have the regular price, $10, his name was simply marked and If he was Ut get a different sum, say $5, the mint was marked. Two hundred and forty-nine votes were polled ln the Eighth division, including 104 bought by Mr. Hyman. The vote was, ilyman, 1*14; Gray,, 105. In the Seventh division of Ward VIII.. Kd Sifton and Tom Lewis appeared to carry on thc same work as Mulloy and Collins did In thc Eighth division. Lewis told Collins that No. 7 division cost about $1100 or $1200. Sifton went and got the money from O'Gorman. On the day following the polling Mulloy handed Collins a sum of money which he sajn was the amount required to pay the voters bought and Collins began paying all who came for whom he was holder, both in the Seventh and Eighth divisions. Dan Wiley, a clerk in the customs, was pitsont, and took receipts. When Collins found that he was short $120 he told Mulloy, and Wiley said he would secure the money from George Reid. He returned in half an hour with that sum. Collins says that at the last election there would be two inside scrutineers for Mr. Hyman. One of them would do the ordinary scrutineering and have a list as marked by tne canvassers. The other would have a clean, un- murked list of voters and would mark with "X" eaeh voter's name whose ballot was put In the box with the right hand, and with an "O" the names of those who put In votes with the left hand. Thus tliey would have a record of each vote. Collins' statement Is accompanied by a list of paid voters In the division of which he was returning officer. As a' fact, at the polls, Collins did not fold the ballots as suggested by O'Gorman. O'Gorman declined to elect when arraigned before Magistrate Denison. Mr. Rohlnette objected to the proceedings being held ln Toronto, but Mr. Duvernet held that such procedure wars necessary In order to establish O'Gorman's connection with the charges having application to their jurisdiction. The Investigation has been adjourned until Tuesday. Collins says he was promised a government job but he did not get it 8CD00L BOARD ACCEPTS Non-Resident Pupils May Attend Without Paying Fees���Department's Offer Approved. A special meeting of the board of school trustees was held yesterday afternoon at 4 o'clock in the office of Dr. E. C. Arthur, secretary. There were present A. D. Emory, chairman, Dr. Arthur, Dr. Hall and K .J. Steel. The letter from A. Robinson, superintendent of eUuctuiou, published in yesterday's issue, offering to reimburse the city for the cost of education of pupils not resident within the city limits, was read and diseussed. Ou motion of Dr. Hall the offer wus accepted. A. Sullivan, principal of the public school, was present. He had a list of 22 non-resident pupils attending, who hati paid various amounts to date. He was instructed to return all money collected aud enroll all non-resident pupils who applied, who complied with other requirements. The board, however, have accepted the department's comprotnise only for the current half year, it's further acceptance will depend upon tin1 board of 1807. Owing to the crowded state of nit the junior class rooms a new division will become imperative in .luminary, and tin- presence of tiny considerable number of outside pupils may cause further requirement's iu the way 0( class rooms. Mr. Sullivan asked for Instructions In the case of three children applying to enter. They hnve attended the school of the Sisters of St. Joseph since the beginning of the present term. All are beginners and fit only for the primary department, which fs already overcrowded. It was resolved that the rule adopt ed by the board allowing only a fortnight at the beginning of each term for the enrollment of new pupils be enforced In this case as In others. Mr. Sullvan suggested that authority be sought to open the schools at 9 n. m. through the winter mouths Instead of 0:80, and close half nn hour earlier In the afternoon. Tho secretary wna Instructed to tnke up the matter with llie department and. If possible, secure authority for tho change. Connect With Honolulu.

Oct. 2.���The Tribune today says: "Unless the United States pure food commission changes its mind the people of the United States will soon be using granulated and other sugars that have a distinctly yellowish tinge. The commission hus decreed that no mineral substance be used In blenching. Sugar refiners nnd their chemists arc much disturbed. Sugar chemists say they use four pounds of a mineral blueing substance to every 1,000,000 pounds of sugar for blenching purposes. This sugar, thu chemists sny, Is not adulterated. The pure food commission cannot see it In that light and Insist that the whiting process lie abandoned. If thnt Is done the result will hn that all sugar refined under the commission's new directions will be of a distinctly -,'ellow- Ish shade.

HEIRS FIND FORTUNE Unexpected Discovery of Old Coins Leads to Litigation���Female Miser's Testament. Xew York, Oct. 2.���A Hudson, N. *f_ despatch to the Herald says that pots of .old filled with cuius dating back to tho reign of George .III., bearing the Uate 1770, and bills tied ln knots stuffed In vases and cups were found yesterday in the most unexpected places of the Robinson homestead at liudson, where four weeks ago neigh- jj bors found tlie body of .Miss Prances Caroline Kobinson. Until the bidden money was found it was supposed that ! Miss Kobinson left no more than $.0001 but with the finding of the coin and treasures the estate ls brought up to more than $50,000. The finding of the hidden treasure will, lt Is thought, cause a contest of tbe will that Miss Robinson left. The next of kin will probably take the matter Into the surrogate court ln the ground that Miss Robinson was of unsound mind, although she was always regarded tis alert in business transactions. The will divides the estate Into four eHual parts, one to the American Seaman's Friendly society, one to tbe American Bible society, a thirl part to the American Tract 80cies> and the fourth portion to tho Hudson Homo for the Aged. Already lasvyers have been engaged by both sides for the will, contest. -llss Kobinsoa was au odd character. it) years eld, and a recluse, but known- ti every oue of pror.ilnonci ln the -ty. Her father was one of the old am. clipper captains, whose boast wu toe number cf trips he had -round the world. Tho curios -aptoJ* Kobinson pie.ed up ln .mis-., were maay. Among these ���_e Utorge 111. coins that formed part ol the treasure found y<-_tcrday. It was not believed that Miss Rob- nsoa had any money, so tbat when -he was found dead there was no special activity among the next of kin >ut!::d.' cf having an Inventory taken. It s.-i while this iuventory was being .ado that the first jar of coins was u.so.vored. These coins were all ut Uie bottom of a jar and the rest ol the -. a-r wub stuffed with spools and ,uos> threuds. A systematic search v.ai tiiun made. Pitchers filled with ~-iu3 were fouud behind doors, cov- -red with rags and sacking. Under cirpcts were found bills tied up and _i:rj coins. More money was found ovir the copings and in the garret Thore was hardly a room in the Iiouso that did not conceal money. All .ho property had been turned over to tho public administrators. m_4�� No Race Next Year. i>ew York, Oct. 2.���There will be no race for tho America cup in 1907, according to the Times, which today says: ���Whatever may be Ihe ultimate out- c-mo or Sir Thomas Llpton'8 negotiations for another America cup race, lt can be Btated tbat there will be no r^c next year. Assurances are said ti have been positively given that un- d-r no conditions would the New York Yaciit club consider a race In 1907.

Xew York, Oct. 2.���A special' despatch front London stales that oue sequel to tho British Intrusion In the forbidden land of Thibet, from which long custom excluded Western inventions, will be the Immediate introduction of automobiles by Captiln O Connor, British trade agent at Lhnssa ot Tashl Lsunipo.

Tn? phenomenal growth of Canada is nothing ir not surprising. During the last decade the country has made startling advances and is now attracting the attention of the whole world. This is not because the country is adopting measures to bring itself to the notice of the world, but because the goods are here and all the country has to do is to deliver them. The local Liberal press delights to speak of the '"wise Immigration policy" of the Laurier administration as though thai policy makes the success of Canada, while Canada, because of her natural resources and the advertising she is receiving at the hands of private individuals, or corporations, is winning her laurels in the eyes of the world. It is Impossible in these days of competition and inquiry to keep long secret the resources of a country like Canada. While capital and labor are both vieing with one another to find new fields to conquer, it can scarcely be supposed that Canada could hide her resources under a bushel. The immense riches for which the country is now becoming famous can no longer be disguised and like the United States of a quarter of a century ago. the facts must become patent to all *'ho would know them. So it has |me to pass, that Canada has filleted the eyes of the world and is , perhaps the one country which Is receiving the attention of both cap- Hal and labor the whole world over. What will be the outcome of this attention it is not difficult to forecast. The United States, facetiously called America, has indirectly done much to advertise this country and as it has now reached almost the limit ol its expansion, what it has done to make itself known will redound lo the advantage of Canada. Expansion across the bordet has almost reached iis limit untl what is to come in the way of development will be much more to the advantage of this country than to lhat of the United States. The prairie provinces will enjoy their share of the prospective advancement but British Columbia is yet young iu the field of contention for her rights. That she will avail herself of her opportunities and rise to the occasion need not be doubted, With her mineral and horticultural possibilities, she wilt take her place among the provinces of the Dominion and a rapid expansion may be looked tor. The world is after all, a small sphere, and the opportunities existing here for investment in many promising ways is too pronounced to be overlooked. And just as the province comes into its own in the matter of public attention, so will the Kootenay districts attract the attention of the world at large. While mines, farms and fruit growing areas are being sought, the Kootenay will be among the winners. The signs of the limes nre improving and there is a general feeling of encouragement, the expression of the "stand patter" being that good times are ahead. The general revival of confidence means much to every kind of business undertaking and that the people of the Kootenays believe in the future of the country is evidenced every day. There is no place in the Kootenays for knockers and they are consequently finding life more and more troublesome. Optimism, healthy optimism is the reigning and dominant spirit Iu the interior and while in itself a hopeful spirit the developments of the country are such as give it every excuse for existence, RAILWAY LAND DEALS. The Opposition press In Itritish Columbia has had a good deal to say aboul the sale of the Kaien island railway lands and the responsibility of the AIcBridc administration in tbat case. Tin* Canadian again desires to call attention to the fact that what is light at Ottawa cannot he wrong at Victoria. In a recent speech Mr. H. L. Horden called attention to the fact that a deal had been made at Moncton which bote all the earmarks of a deliberately arranged advantage taken of inside information respecting a deal in lands which ultimately passed into the hands of a railway company. Here are his words, and they cannot be rein ted: "Extravagance has not been confined to the department of marine and fisheries. A friendly partizan who had good reason to believe that certain land at Moncton would be taken over by the government purchased it for $5075 and sold it within a few weeks to the Intercolonial railway for $13,- 8S0 just a few days before a general election. The sum of $300 was paid to a lawyer for conducting the negotiations with the owner of the land. The friendly middleman pocketed the balance, thus receiving a clear profit of $85*05. This transaction was thoroughly approved by the government and their siij>[M_rters who voted unanimously against a resolution protesting the payment to the partisan middleman of this enormous profit." While there Is no similarity between this deal and the sale of the Kaien island lands ii is up to the Liberal press to explain what is tin1 matter with lho Ottawa authorities, or in other words, while the Laurier government makes deals which are on their race, openly in violation of business honor, how can ihe Vietoria government In* condemned for deals which are not at all in the same class? POLITICAL COKHUPTION. The story ul political and moral turpitude exhibited in the revelations connected wiih the election of Hon. 0. S. Ilyman in Loudon during 1905 shoulil arouse indignation throughout all Canada. The motto of the Liberal party seems now to he power and place at any cost. With the disclosures in Nova Scotia repealing themselves in Ontario there seems to be no longer any la-ck of material for political scandals in the eastern provinces. Of course It is too early to predict the sum total of the revelations that will follow iu the Hyman case. Al the bottom of the scandal there seems to be a disappointed place seeker, one who it Is alleged was promised some gift from the party which his superiors failed to deliver. This inay, to some tent modify the allegations, but that ere was an understanding seems be already well proved. The pnss- i of money in large sums seems al- ady established and that fact alone sufficient to bring disgrace to the rty whose agents corruptly handled coin. Never was there a more timely plea an that of Hon. II. L. Horden for rity in elections and in the admin- ration of public affairs. EDITORIAL COMMENT. The Globe says editorially: "The transfer of Mr. Justice Duff of Hritish Columbia to a Beat on the supreme court bench of the Dominion will be heartily approved by public opinion. Though comparatively young In years, he has already earned a good reputation as a jurist, partly by his ability as an advocate and partly by his decisions during his still brief term on the Hritish Columbia bench. Mr. Dttfr Is a native uf this province, and he was educated here, having distinguished himself in the University of Toronto as a mathematician. The best wishes of his former fellow students, with whom ho was highly popular, will go with him to Ottawa, where a long career of usefulness and distinction seems opening up for him. TIMBER NOTICES.

Olmsted, owner of the Columbian Mines in Sheep Creek Valley, hat) re turned from a business trip to Seattle. Mr. mid Mrs W. W, Beer returned last evening from Spokane, where they hud lieen attending the Interstate Fair. Tho adjourned meeting of tho City Council will be held to-morrow night at H o'clock, and will be followed by D meeting of the board of health. (leorge Fleming, the Fairview politician and rancher, will have his windmill in operation in a few days, and the problem of irrigating small fruit ranches will soon bo solved. A large number of Nelson people are in Spokane this week attending the Interstate Fair. While the exhibition is considered very good, the horse races seem to attract most attention. The Mines Department advertises that if a BOffloient number of candidates are offering there will be an examination for Provincial assayers held in Nelson this autumn as well as at Victoria. Suburban fruit-growers are greatly interested tn an apple tree growing in the garden of Mr. .Tiskowiez, in Fairview, which is so heavily loaded with fruit that twenty-four strips of boards are required to keep the branches from breaking down. Tlie court stenographers were obliged to work all last night on the evidence given in the preliminary examination of Brooe, charged with murder. Thc type* written copy of the evidence was not in the hands of the Chief Justice until late this forenoon. The owners of water motors are deeply nterested in the discussion now going on as to the probability of electricity being substituted for water in the various manufacturing industries in the city It was believed that electricity would be cheaper power than the water, but after the discussion at the council meeting last evening the impression prevails that under new conditions the cost of engaging in manufacturing enterprises will be greatly increased. The performance given last evening by the Sutton company at Sherman's Opera Honae, was well attended and gave universal satisfaction. The play itself, "The Church Aerosa the Way," is of tho meloj drama type, but it Is well '-oustrunted and affords ample scope to bring out the histrionic talents of the company. The specialties were exceptionally good, particularly the performance of the Mnllaley sisters.
