Zbc fl&afMberafo WEDNESDAY, JULY 11, 190!) A NEW COURTHOUSE The necessity ior the establishment oi a land registry ollice at Kevelsloke wus pressed upon Premier McBride during his recent visit, and the need of a courthouse in connection with it was urged by the Board of Trade at its meeting last Thursday night, Kaslo, Fernie, Cranbrook and other points are each having new brick and stone courthouses built, and as Kevelstoke is as important as any ol these places, its claim.- should be considered: more particularly in view of the advice of the public works engineer, when lie told tht government agent to waste no more money in repairing the present antiquated and dilapidated shed on the hilltop. While justice do-s not r'-ide in brick and stone the blind goddes? ol the eword and scales ban always been enveloped witb :i certain amount ol religious reveren • n thi • >■- of the British people, and they have Bought to enshrine her in temples worthy ol bi r high degree, We do not Bay .-• ■ i- v.. .. be administered better iti a brick than in a wooden court- si but we do claim lhat there i_i something to the eye more consonant with th*- liritish idea ol justice in a solid, permanent -truc- ture than in a temporary wooden shack, Apart Irom this, however, it is evident that the lime has come when a choice must be made between patching and tinkering at the present building nr erecting another that will la-t. It seems to us that the first cost, though heavy, will be lietter than a constant dribbling with unsatisfactory re- ■•ulte: and this is clearly a case in which the dearest Article would prove cheapest in the end. 'I'he building of a new courthouse would at tbe (same time pave the way for tbe establishment of u land registry ollice at tbis point, because in the new (Structure il would be easy to make provision for it '1 bu I AND REGISTRY Tbr question of the establishment of a land registry ollice, though involved in tbe latest hoard of trade proposal with that of a new Courthouse, is really a separate matter as tar as the merits go. To register a mortgage or a deed the citizen of Rovelstoke is compelled to send to Nelson, a distance of 18U miles. Naturally the business at so great a distance has to be done almost wholly by mail with most unsatisfactory results. A man wishes to sell a piece of property and give the title and get the money in order perhaps to take a journey to lhe east or to the Old Country, or to make an immediate investment elsewhere; but he finds his plans baulked by a wait of six months or more before he can get a certilicate of title from the distant registry ollice. Another case is cited in which an agent procured money to loan on a property for which the owner assured him that be bad a clear title, but after a month or two of correspondence and passing to and fro it was found that a lis pendens bad been filed against it. Again, cases have been qouted in which owners have attempted to raise money by nnirt gage, and have been compelled to wait months In-fore a certilicate of incumbrance could be obtained. Possibly these things are not due to the fault of the land registry ollice, where the help may be insufficient to enable them to keep up with the work, but it i- e\\ that if the person who wished to register a title or ascertain the standing oi one i ould go per- -.'i..illy and make his search luisi- ness would bt done with much greater expedition Ink and paper sh • out of a mail bag can never appeal with the I nn e and -Iir-1 ■ in-- of a human being meeting another eye to • ' e. It ;- •■■.idenl ii-" thai a reg . ■'■ . e al Revelstoke would serve .i a large district in eastern Br . 11. i... '.-. bid 11 s ttislactorily supplied by an i pigeonholed away down among the hills and lakes of South Kootenay. Anyone in Kit-Id for example wishing lo register a title must send lo Nelson, a distance of over 800 miles, whore the sume service could be performed at Revelstoke a distance of one hundred and sixty miles. Golden, only 96 miles distant, must now semi 278 miles. Moreover, a land registry ollice nl Kevelstoke would be more convenient to the whole Okanagan valley than is that at Kamloops to which tbey must at present apply. When they strike the main line at Sicamous tbey must travel SI miles to Kamloops, where 45 miles would bring tbem to Kevelstoke. A Registry ollice at this point, therefore, would prove more convenient for all people for an indefinite distance to the north, as far south as Nakusp, us far east as the boundary of Alberta, and as far west as Sicamous or Salmon Arm. When it is considered that in serving this large territory it would at the same time lighten tbe work of the Nelson ollice, and enable the people of South Kootenay to have a more satisfactory service, it will be seen that the request for the establishment of a land registry office is not only reasonable, but that it is a vital necessity for this growing portion of Uritish Columbia. RABID PARTISANSHIP In the latest issue of the Kamloops Standard appears an article under the above heading well worthy of perusal by any thoughtful citizen. Its opinions of tbe political tactics of a local organ here, though coming from an outside source, are, we believe, but an echo of the opinion of all citizens of Revelstoke who do not allow partisan zeal to run away with discretion. The paper that puts party passion first and relegates the welfare ol its own locality to a secondary position, certainly does the district no service, and in tbe end does nothing but barm to its own party. The K.uii,■ - ime ■ . - ii pathetii (urnishes a pathetic toke i Ibwrver .a-- The other : i be ministers ot the passed through thai citj . editor ol the I Ibnerver in refereni e to his pan ng goes on to say "that none of the faithful were at the station to meet him for they evidently know his sentiments regarding Taylori-ni uud gnift." Tbis is not the first, instance by any means thai the Observer bus been guilty of nn offence of this character, for almost, every issues brings further evidence of the partizan feeling tbat animates man who directs it. Rut rabid parti- zanship can breed nothing but ev 1 and is destructive both to parly and national good. If the editor ol the Revelsloke Observer think that ho is rendering service when ho indulges in these Hellish and sinister methods be is far amiss for be is working harm to himself and to bis party. What little prestige he may have owned will he undermined anil ultimately he will lind himself despised by his own and Bcorned by all othere." The proposal nf Mayor Lindmark that nil buildings in the city should be connected with the sewers from tbe street line to the plumbing, by the oity itself,and repayment made on a five years' frontage lax by piopertV-owners, is one that comes closely home lo many citizens. It seems to ns lhat there wns merit in the observation of Aid. Kimberley that when a man wished lo dig for bis own sewer be should be allowed to do so, and thus save himself expense. Probably lhe better plan would be for the city to provide and lay the pipes, und allow tbe property-owners to get tbe digging done as tbey pleased so long as il was satisfactory to tbe oity inspector. This won id enable the man who wished to economise by digging tlie drain himself in bis spare time to do so, nntl it would work no hardship on others, since those who would not care to do tin- work themselves would generally be in a position to pay someone else. We would recommend our readers to peruse the thoughtful letter signed "Citizen" which appears in another column. Revelstoke is essentially a railway town, and if some ariangement could be reached with tbe C. P. K. Company which would facilitate their work here and encourage them to increase tlieir working staff, the whole town would benefit. Certainly it is to be desired that both corporations should work in harmony, even if some concessions are required to accomplish that end. WANTED WANTED—All kinds of typewriting nnd stenography work.

Another "Sunshine" Feature This U an entirely new idea, and will especially interest people who reside in natural gmm districts. The gas ring takes the place of the lower Sunshine fire-pot, thus making it possible to burn gas in your furnace without inconvenience. Such is not possible in a furnace where the ordinary gas log is inserted; for, should the gas give out, a coal or wood fire could not be started until the g.ts pipes were disconnected. To provide against sweating in the summer time, Sunshine Furnace is equipped with ;i nickelled sleel radiator and dome. All bolts and rivets are nickelled, all rods eopper-plated. This special treatment, besides meaning quicker and greater radiation from the radiator and dome than cold chill iron could possibly give, acts as protection for the bolls, rivets and rods from Inroads of gas. When cast iron conies in contact wilh our nickelled steel it is coined with our special Anti-Rust treatment, which prevents the slightest possibility of rust commencing anywhere in Sunshine Furnace.

MrliAIIIIRAN, Agent fm Lafayette Lamb, Dated .June .Ird, 1008. jun 2.'! CORRESPONDENCE The City and The C. P, R, Kilitor Mill. Hbhii.I). Sir,—Tbe present autumn, inaugurating as it does the shipping of Alberta wheat westward over lhe "A B C" route, Bhould mean much to Rjvel- sioke, the most important divisional point on the main line of the C,P.K. between Calgsry and Vancouver. It is very greatly to be regretted that some years ago tbe city and the railway authorities failed to agree in the matter of a supply of electric power for the local shops. RevelBtoke has been teeling the effects of that failure ever since. In eaBtern Canada towns not nearly as large aa Reveletoke are only too glad to give large cash bonuses, besides free water and light and exemption from taxation lor a term of years, in order to Becure industries that do not mean half ns much to them as au increase of a hundred or two hundred men on the stall' ol the shops, coupled with the go tl-will of the ollicials, would mean to us. It is all very well to say, as has been said in the paat, lhat the C. P. R. must maintain shopB here anyway and that we would be foolish to grant them any concessions. Everyone knows tbat it is a comparatively easy matter for a railway company to move its rolling stock a hundred miles or so, and even a "dead" engine can be hauled to Calgary or Vancouver for repairs without very much expense to the oom pony. Practically the only factor which they have to consider in such a case is the matter ol delay. In view, theiefore, ol tbe increased convenience and saving ol time that would result to the railway company and of the many benefits that would accrue to Ihe city, it would seem that tbe old policy of antagonism should give way to one ol a better aud broauer understanding between tbe two corporations. If the working staff of the shops cuuld be increased by one htindrei or two hundred men, il an equitable distributing rate could be secured fur Reveletoke, il the grounds about the depot could be beaulilied, if the city could be given the opportunity ol adequately advertising its excellent natural resources and attraction!: in the printed matter i.-sued by the cumpany Irom time to time, and if steps could be taken jointly that wauld have the effect of inducing a larger percentage of tourists than at present to stay over in our ciiy for a few days wbile ou their way through tbe mountains, would Dot all these amply repay the city tor dealing very liberally with tbe railway company in the matter ot light aud power, aud even, perhaps, in the mattei ol taxation? Might 1 suggest that the City Council and the Board ol Trade give these matters their serious codeidcration and try to bring about eome results aloug the lines Bet forth in this communication? I am, etc., Citizen. July 8th, 1900. Orange Church Parade On Sunday evening the local Orange lodge some thirty strong, paraded iu full regalia to St. Andrews church. The paBtor, Rev. W. C. Calder, preached a strong sermon appropriate to the occasion. Rev. Mr. Calder did not mince his words at all, but said plainly that in his opinion the existence of the Oranger order was made necessary by the political aims ol the Church of Rome. While he protessed no emnily to that powerful organization it was plain that they were aiming at the supreme control of the whole continent ol North America. He roundly condemned Sir Wilfrid Laurier for truckling to the papacy in saddling separate schools on Alberta and Saskatchewan, and declared tbat the same hand was still at work in extending the northern boundaries of (Quebec to include a portion ol Ungava, aud in refusing tu include Keewatin within the b.iundaries ol Manitoba where a national school system prevailed. After the service the brethren paraded back to their lodgoroom, where a vote of thanks was unanimously passed to the Rev. Mr. Calder for his stirring discourse. A psstmsBter'e jewel wsb also presented to Bro. J. H. Armstrong in recognition of hie valuable services to the cause.

ROBERTSON, Agent lor liritish American Live Stock Association, POSSIBILITIES OE REVELSTOKE Wall-known Journalist Urges Campaign for Cultivation Of the Land P, J. O'Farrell, a contributor to Collier'fl Weekly, the Scientilic American and other well known eastern magazines, and former Kootenay newspaper man was a visitor in Revelstoke last week end. He has been a frequent visitor to British Columbia of late yi 'in h and expressed great faith in tbe possibilities of RevelBtoke. "Vou have here," he said looking Irom the front verandah of the Hotel Revelstoke down the green expanse of the Columbia valley, "a country thai il properly developed should support a 0 ty of 20,000.people. Take the city 01 Spokane. All tbe land around tbere has been cleared and planted and they have to irrigate, tint it has built up tbe town. If you had the bush cleared off these valleys, you ought here to be able to grow as good Iruit as anywhere in the world and you don't have to irrigate. Land is needed—it is becoming valuable all over the world. lt simply irritates me to come through here year alter year and see wild trees growing where there ought to be fruit trees. 1 am glad tu see that they are doing something in Kootenay. Vou people here want to wake up. Why by this time you ought to have a settled country and a trolley car line running between here and the Arrow lakes." The interviewer pointed out that the country was still young, and in the past the atteniion of the people bad been chiefly directed to timber and mines. "That iB all right," said Mr. O'Farrell, "but you will never have a great country without agriculture. Why, 1 find that my hotelkeeper is using butter made in Alberta, while there in the list kind of dairying land lying right nt our feet. The town should wake up and try tu develop the surrounding country, and tbe city would take care of itself." Mr. O'Farrell, who was travelling with James G. Blaine of New York, left for lhe coast Saturday afternoon. Government Annuities It is all too little to know that the government of the dominion haB provided a plan whereby any citizen ol Canada, may lor a small sum paid weekly purchase an annuity that will render anyone independent of clnirity io old age. The scheme originated with Sir Richard Cartwright and is carried out through the agency of the department of trade and commerce. A young man starting at the age ol twenty to pay 25 cents a week into the annuity funds, would at the age of 55 be entitled to draw $85.58 annually, or il he let it go till he was sixty he could draw $120 01 each year, at sixty-tivc he could draw $203 and at seventy would be entitled to$336 yearly. For lemales the ratio is slightly different, but the system is t he same. Larger weekly payments will in eacli case Becure larger annuities iu proportion. Payments may be made yearly, half yearly or quarterly as desired. If the pcisiin paying in should die beljre tbe annuity becomes due the contributions with three per cent interest would be returned to tbe heirs. The amount of contribution is of course increased as age advances. Too much praise cannot he given this scheme tbat teaches the people to be providi nt. and Bell-helping. While the British governmtnt places a premium on thriltlcBsness and hand to mouth living by its system of old age pensions, this scheme gives to every workingman and woman in Canada an opportunity to Becure by small contributions, a sum at least sullicient to keep them from want in old age. Full information aB to the working ol this schanie can be obtained from 8. T. Hastedo, Superintendent ol Canadian Government annuities, Department ol Trade and Commerce, Ottawa. Important to Revelstoke General E. Deville, surveyor general for the Dominion, who is now in British Columbia, statetl in Vancouver last week that in anticipation ol a How ol immigration over tho Rockies, A, O. Whoeler has been given the task of making a survey of the possibilities ol the railway belt between Kamloops and Golden. He will report on the suitability ol land (or ranching, Iruit growing and small farming in Buch manner as t.i give Ottawa immigration ollicials full details for informing sottlers. Mr. Wheeler has now three parties in the Held and it is expected that his report on the classification ol the region east of Kamloops will bo ready lor next year when subdivision work in the region will probably bo undertaken. Mr. Deville states that bis department has now eight survey parties out in the railway holt working in connection with the new ordor of the department whereby its officials muBt Biirvcy timber borths. The government is this year also doing extensive survey work on Dominion landB in tho Peace River district to prepare lor an expected rush on the opening ol the railway.
