It is a matter of regret that the C P.R. could not see their way to treat moro liberally the people of Donald who huve suffered heavily bv th-3 Company's action in removing the workshops. The experience of the Donald people ia a severe object lesson to the people of Canada, and supports tho contention that trafficking in townsites by railway companies should be put An end to. The people of Donald made thoir homes there under representations which gave tliein evory reason to believe that Donald was to bo a permanent railway centre, and it is very hard u.,ou many of the residents that, alter they have spent the host part of their lives there, they should ho force,*l to turn out and make new homos for ti.omselves, while they are handicapped by heavy loses iu buildings nud improvements which have been rendered valueless. Mr. Forrest, the owner of the Forest House, has alouu lost, some where between $1000 and $5000, and other firms have suffered in proportion, It. is a serious thing to have to recognise that there i�� no stability in any C.P.R. townsite, but that is really the position in the face cf the statements and propositions submitted by Mr. D'Arcy. That fact ought to be known and recognised from one end ol the Dominion to the other, and should have the early attention of Parliament. TETEJAUNtiGACHE GOLDFIELD. THE SHORTEST ROUTE.

It removes at oiu'O thecaiwo .-mil 'ho diseaf-o immediately disappears, The first dose greatly buueHu. 75 cents. Sold by U. A. Warren, Tho Lyeftufr Company, On April 24th and 25tb tbe people of From ft!l appearances there is likely to bo a big rush of people to Tote Jaune Cache in ihe early spring, although at tho present lime thero is no information to justify such a rush. The question now comes uppermost as to which is the nearest and best route. We claim then that the* route by the Columbia and Canoe rivers is the best bv long odds. In point of distance in tho first place, the route from Gulden has distinctly the advantage, thu distance from hero to Tete Jaune Cache being 180 miles, as against, 250 from Kamloops, and 480 from Edmonton. There is no denying the fact tbat distance bas much to do with a route to a new gold field where there are no ronds or trails built. The next point to be considered is convenience of travel. To start with there is a trail now existing over thegreater length and most difficult part cf the journey. Thut trail was orginally built by Mv. Moberly, the eminent CMP.R*. engineer, wbo thoroughly explored the country for a railway line, and was, as a result, in favor of taking the C.P.R, along the Columbia Vallev north. Mr. Moberly, in his explorations, built Wbat has since been known as the Moberly trail, running from Golden, nud following the valleys of the Black* iv a tor and Columbia river to Canoe rivor. That trail has sinVe been used a groat deal, and although the bridges and improvements made by Mr Moberly have in soriio cases hech obliterated, many of the advantages of the route remain. Certainly it is a remarkably flue natural route, with easy grades, and as direct as it is possible to get ��uch a route. The Government have since adopted the route, and have efft-cted considerable improvements on it by the bridging of the Wait-a-bit, Bluewater, und Blackwatfer rivers. A boat has been placed Rt Bush river and the cVos^ing marked o��f at Sullivan river. After parsing Wood river, near the mouth of the junction of Canoe river with the Columbia river, there aro no difficulties of oomfahnicatiori and the route is said to be unsurpassed. All the prospectors who have been over tho trail toll us that by the expenditure of $3000 or so this trail can he put in excellent shape by following the. b'-mch Iniitlft. So much for the land travel. But this route has also excellent water carriage. From Beaver there is good water for 20 toiles, then a portage over Surprise Rapids, Then there is good water for 40 miles to the foot of ICinbasket lake, whence thero aro 20 miles of rapids to the junction with Canoe river. There will have to bo a portage over this 20 miles. Then there is excellent water over Canoe River for a distance of 40 miles. Thus, with 24 miles of portage, there is excellent water communication to within ST. PAUL'S CHURCH ANNUAL THE VESTRY MEETING. Golden will have �� chance to witness! 60 miles of Tete Jamie Cache.

We don't wish to disparage the Revelstoke or Kamloops route, hut it is very certain that .neither of them hus a patch of the advantages of this route from Golden. Then, again, GoMeii is the best outfitting point. With a route such as we have outlined in tho way of distance and natural advantages it is a great thing for prospectors to be able to get their supplies at the gateway of this route as choaply and ns effectively as at any other point. The freight and trouble of packing is thus saved. Golden has hitherto dono almost the whole of the outfitting for this new route,ami is capable of doing, ami ought to do, the whole of it iti the future. Our inc'rchauts are live men who k?cp good stocks at reasonable prices, and this contention is already vouched for by tho largo area for whicli Golden is alrcuily a supply point. The annual vestry meeting was held at aSt. Paul's Church, Goi&u, B.C., on Easter Monday, April 3rd, 189!), at 7:30 p.m. Rev, H. B. Turner, Vicar, in tiie chair, There were present, Messrs. J. K.

He also produoed a balauce sheet showing that he had collected $170.50 for ihe church debt and had ptiid 5100 to tho mortgagor leaving $70.50 on hand. Mr. C. JL Parson moved and Mr. al E.

Plowright for his efforts to reduce the church debt. Rev. H. B. Turner Spoke of the pleasure it had given him aud many members of the congregation to see an old friend of St. Paul's in Golden n^ain in Mr. J. F. Armstron and his wife from Fort Steele und spoke of the valuable work he had dono for the church whilst a resident here, and of the great pleasure he felt personally tti see so many people at the services during Holy week and on Easter Day, the number of communicants being three times as large as on Easter day lest year. After a few well chosen ro- liinrks he then rbad a letter from 25 nieinbors of tho congregation asking Mr. Plowright's acceptance of a cheque for S45 in return for his many years service to the Church as organist. Mr. Plowright, who was completely tnkon ahiick at the unexpected turn things had taken, expressed the great pleasure lie fe't iu do.ng anything fur the church which ho had helped to build and had attended since its erection, uud desired to thank Mr. Turner and the members of the congregation who had given him this beautiful present. After the Blossing the liie'cCinrt adjourned at 8:30 p.m. C. P. R. DONALD. AND FINAL DECISION RE COMPEL SAT10N. Visit of the Claims Af ent. On Monday Mr, D'Arcy, Claim* i\gent for the CPE., arrived at t)oo* aid und everybody was on tip-toe td learn tho decision of the Compahy iri regard to tlio compensation to be paid to the rosidonts ot tho tbwn who Suffered damage hy the action of th*$ Company, in removing the divisional nnd workshop point front Donald. Mr; D'Arcy met the leading residents of the town and told them that the only tilings the Company could do for them wero to allow them all the transportation they required in looking out new business sites and in transferring their effects to their new locations. Nd cash compensation would be allowed. In regard to the town lots the present holders would be allowed what they had paid on the purchase of lots in any other C.P.R townsite. - The gentlemen present *bipr6fisw much dissatisfaction that the Company proposed to show them no great- or liberality, and said that the statement made by Mr. D'Arcy was uo* settlement at all. They cotitended that the effect of Mr. D'Arcy'a prt$d- sition was tantamount to saying that the C P.It. accepted no responsibility for their townsites, but might destroy a townsite when they chose, or remove the means of supporting it. The public had thus no pledge of good faith from the Company in purchatihig loti iu their townsite. Mr. Forrest remarked that the day might not be far distant when eveti Cranbrook might he broken up in the samp way aS Donald was now, although the Company had made repre-' sentations that this was to he ibl^r favored townsite of the Crows NesC Road. Mr. D'Arcy said that was exactly so; The Company gave, and -ftottlS givey no guarantee of support to any of their townsites, or of the continuation oi their operations ther*, if it should at. any time better meet the economic- working to the road to rumove to sbttMs other point.

The prosecutor -vas represented by Mr. Fulton, of Kamloops, and accused was tlofended by Messrs. McCnrter of Revel- staako, and Hnggbn, of Golden. Evidence wns taken shewing tbo statements of the prosecutor to have been contradictory and unsupported, while the evidonco adduced on behalf of tho accused bore out his version that ho was innocent of tho charge and fully corroborated his Htory as to how he came by the money in Ins possession. After a patient and exhaustive hearing extending from 8 a.m. till noon His Worship dismissed tho charge as being entirely unsupported. Heart disease relieved in so MINUTES.-Di*.

"Well," tlio young man went on, "this waiter wants to charge mo tl fur a whole duck, when I've eaten only hull a duck. It's absnrd.

I told him 1 was very skeptical as to any benefit that could be derived from any proprietary medicine and had no fait li in them. There tiie matter rested until four months ago, when reading so much about what Dr. Ward's Blood and Nerve Bills have done for so many people with impoverished blood, I concluded to give them a trial. I have taken four boxes and my unbelief so far as Dr. Ward's Blood and Nerve Bills are concerned lias been entirely rou.'oved. They are a splendid blood builder and strength restorer, and an invaluable medicine for weak, enervated people.

Many mining men, bus; uess iiiiiii and prospectors do not give it the support to which it is entitled more throngh carelessness than because of a stingy spirit. Rightly managed, the local paper is ciritiinly of immense value to any mining district. Its influence and standing are not confined to the limits of tin* district in which it is published, for lhe news it gives of the camp is reproduced and given circulation a thousand fold, and some of it, when unusually important, is scattered to the ends of the earth."
