My good old friend, Mr. Schufield, use a western expression, is a IHtl )fft smooth,1' remurked Mr. Green hi I opening his address. "This riding has ftun more thnn one occasion glVen him such au ample majority and yet he |tytells you thnt you have not eome here to hear him but to hear me. Me i-j a very modest young num." Mr. Green continued that Mr. Schofleld had not told Jlieiu what he had done for .them, he had not lold them I thnt no member of the local house jihad worked harder nor more consist- Gently to meet the needs of his riding ijthan Mr. Schofleld. "You'll make a Spretty good team, Hob," ejaculated one of the audience. When tho applause which followed the interruption had subsided, Mr. j'jGret'ii continued that Mr. Scliofield jalsci* had not told them that tbe at- tt'iUfon that British Columbia was re* reiving In the old country was din- very large extent to Sir Richard IcBrlde. The. premier, he said, was gely responsible for bringing to llie Attention-of. the old country not only ^British Columbia but' Canada as n 'jiwhole.. British Columbia during the #7 years that tho speaker hncl been ip the province hnd never heen better [[governed than It was at present an.d-| fjhe 'believed, that lr* never would he. .'And ll would continue to be well gov- jerned as long ns tbe electorate seal ■•[such men ns Mr. Schofleld to the leg '.taint lire, Thanks for Election, Mr. Green expressed his thanks for [Having been paid the groat compli ment of being sent to Ottawa by ac- ctamation. He was nut living In the riding when be bad. been nominated; the convention, In fact, had met the morning after lie had arrived In Nplson from the coast aim "he had not asked a single jnan ^for.n vote, yet he had been nominated and men elected by acclamation. He' therefore had tn •thank the people of Kootenay for the greatest compliment, that had ever been paid him In his life and be did so sincerely, i Congratulates Settlers, j When he looked oven, the west arm and saw the remarkable developmenl that had taken place Jn the? past few years he felt that the-people of the district had to be congratulated, no.t only upon having such 'a glorious -country, but also upon the men who had made a smiling garden of what was a few years ago a wilderness, Feferrlilg to public works, Mr. Green remarked that with the exception of wharves nnd aids to navigation, there was little for tlie Dominion government to do. His recollection was lhal until about five yenrs ngo there were practically no wharves on tho wesl arm and thnt much of what hnd-slneo-i been done hail been hy the provincial government. The local government did not have to carry out such work but had done so simply to aid the settlers and he thought deserved much credit for so doing. To Meet People Personally. After obaerviiig that he was In (bis district for the purpose nf meeting Ihe people and discovering- their needs, • the speaker declared that he believed .that the people of Hrltish Columbia wore paying moro toward the* revenue of the Dominion thnn they should; In proportion to what thoy had been receiving, but expressed his belief thai If proper representations were made to nttawn'they would gel what Ihey were entitled to. Toward the end or October and during the early part of November. Mr. Green said that he would make an extended tour over' tho whole of Koolenay. He believed that by mooting tbe people personally he could secure a much better Idea of the need:; of the constituency than by correspondence. It was fur this reason llini/l he proposed to miyke this tour bofore going to Ottawa for the session, lu ihls connection he would like to make one or two remarks. Rome was nol built In n day and since the present government hud eome into power under the leadership of ill. Hon. R, L. Burden much had boon accomplished and tbe government had been endeavoring to get into touch with the needs and niciuireinonts of the different parts of tlie Dominion; the point thai he would tike lo make was that when this district made any representations to the government through the speaker everyllifng could not always be accomplished In the immediate future. Hilt if Ills constituents would only benr-wltb him mid the demands wore just they could have confidence thai he,. Mr. Green, would accomplish whit I was desired before be quit. Congratulates Association. He .congratulated the Proctor and District Conservative association upon Ihe efforts which had been put forth to make the picnic a success and expressed his regret that tho gods bad not boon more propllinns as regards tbe weather. Hut this was a matte for which they were not responsibl and he heartily congratulated the ne soclatlon upon the success which bad been achieved. When (bo Conservative party wa; not as prosperous In British Columbia as It was today tbey did not hold pl< nlcs nor conventions. This year would be held the seventh annual convention of the Conservatives of tbo province"; To these gatherings all Con sorvatives were Inviled and opportunity was given for the members of the parly to express tholr opinions and for (huso from various parts of the province to exchange ideas and to feel thnt the party was united. Picnics could accomplish much In Ihe same way locally as .conventions nceom* pUshed provlnclully. For this reason be was very much in favor of such gatherings as thai which he was addressing. Protection Means Prosperity. Coming to Ibe broader questions af fectlng tbe whole Dominion, Mr Oroen remarked lhat the revenue ol Canada was growing by leaps and hounds and he could assure his audi ence that the Conservatives were nol doing anything lo prevent this expansion. The present finance minister Hon. W. T. While, had shown nn aptl tude for the position and a large amount of Canada's bonded Indebtedness hud been pnld off. During pusl years tbe country had prospered, ho said, In spite of Ibe Liberal party, as It was tho policy of protection which had mu-de Canndn as prosperous as il wns today.

Meanwhile the Lem onwelr flooded hy a cloudburst several miles up Ibe vnlley, had torn away the hVitlge and unwarned, thu engineer could not stop his train lu time to save it from plunging Into the river. Relief trains bearing doctors and nurses were sent nut from several nearby towns. Many of the Injured nre women and children and railroad men regard II ns wonderful that so few lives were lost, considering tho crowd on the train. ' " Tn order to avoid three mountains and to get a water grade from Klngs- gitte to Grand Fonts, tbe Canadian Pacific will build additional mileage llirough the northwestern part of the slate of Washington and will utilize the Spokane International, Idaho & Washington Northern and Spokane Falls & Northern, thus Insuring a new freight line which will be one of Ihe important railroad factors In the northwest, according to a report which has reached the city from Spokane. The Shaughnessy road, it is said, lias secured frum the Uhl tine a right lo use that part of tbe Spokane Fulls & Northern known as tbe Red Mountain line from Northport to Kosslund and the further extension of the Hill line to Nelson known as' thc Nelson & Fort Sbopard. Another important link in the new freight line Is the new Canadian Pacific extension which is being located and surveyed from the terminus uf the lilnckwe.il mail at Ate ta line Falls to Waneta at the lork of the Columbia and Peud d* Oreille rivers. When this braftch is completea the Ciinudlun Pacific will have only a short piece to build in Washington, says the report. Use Three Lines.

Hetween Metallne Falls nnd the boundary line the Canadian Pacific will build 11 tunnels, according to Engineer Dlbblee. With this enormous amount of heavy engineering a remarkably fine grade has been secured. Tlie -10-mile line from Metallne Fulls to Trail will cost, $3,000,000, according to estimates of engineers for the Canadian Pacific in charge of tlie work. The line from the boundary will follow the Pend d' Oreille river to Waneta on tbo Columbia river, where It wiU cross the Columbia and follow along tile west Shore to Trull, Make Donations To Murray Fund Four additional-subscriptions-to The Dally News fund In aid of the Widow and family of the late David Murray of Columbia Gardens yesterday sent the total to $160.50.

In aditlon to an extraordinary rainfall, tho electrical features were most spectacular. The steady rain caused every stream to leave its hanks.

BEVERLEY, Mass., Sept. 2.—The nnoiiiieement that Great Britain will appeal ot the Hague tribunal to settle its claim of violation of the Hay- Pauncefote treaty by the Panama eannl act, came as a surprise to President Taft. lie had heard reports that such an appeal was contemplated but was of the opinion llmt the matter would be taken up In the usual diplomatic The president wns not ready tonight to make an expression on the appeal to the Hague. He had no official wnrd from the state department nnd did not expect to consider the case until he reuehed Wnshlngton dii Wednesday. It was said that a deefsion might hot be reached until thc return of Secretary of State Knox, who is now on his way to Japan. Mr. KnoX Is due back in this country early In October. The president is known to place great reliance upon M-r. Knox's judgement nnd Is hardly likely to lake such a decisive itep without consulting him. It was pointed out here tonight that Great Britain's notice of appeal does not mean that the matter must go to the Hague. The United Stales has as much right to refuse to submit to arbitration as Great Britain has lo ask tt. Friends of tho president realized that Great Britain's action has placed him In a delicate puslllnn. As the foremost advocate of universal arbitration and arbitration of every subject he Is called upon to submit to the Hague a case that Involves something in which every American feels himself vitally interested. It was pointed out, however, that the president will have firm ground on whicii to base a refusal to Arbitrate. Ills proposed arbitration court was to havo been composed of oilis-,ens of the two countries In dispute, and might therefore, expect to give a "square, deal" to tho parlies nt Issue. The Hague court, however, would not contain a number of Americans equal to the number of other members from other countries. All Europe feels much as Great Britain docs about the Panama act and a tribunal composed largely of Europeans could hardly be just to America.

C, Sept. 2.— Charles Strager, a German rancher about 40 years of age, residing a short distance east of Craigellachle, 28 miles west of Revelstoke, received severe injuries from a dynamite blast. He was blasting stumps, when he was struck by the blast, which tore away one of his hands and part of the other hand, also terribly mangling his' features. A neighbor named John Mackano also received injuries to one of his arms by the same blast. Strager was brought to the Revelstoke hospital, tout his recovery Is doubtful. On September fi and 6 there will be played at Revelstoke a tennis tournament. Golden, Rossland, Nelson and Kamloops have signified their intention of being represented. E. B. Parklnam, collector of inland revenue for British Columbia, visited! Revelstoke on an official trip .of Inspection Thursday and Friday of last week. The provincial police of Revelstoke are investigating the reports of blasting for fish In the river at Malakwa, contrary to the game ■ regulations. PESTS FOLLOW BIRD MIGRATION The World Knows the best preventive and corrective of disorders of the digestive organs is the gentle, harmless, vegetable, always effective family remedy BEECHAM'S PILLS SoU -M-erywher-Bt • In boze*. 25c Dominion Expert Investigates With View to Preparing to Fight Coditn Moth and San Jose Scale. Just what course is likely to be taken by fruit pests such as the cod- lln moth and the San Jose scale should they enter British Columbia from the south Is the object of Borne investigations which are being carried out by C. L. Keegan, Dominion entomologist stationed at Agassis;, B. C, who was at the Hume last night on his return from a visit to Washington, Idaho and Montana. The codlln moth, he said, will follow the course taken by the birds In their migrations, while the San Jose scale is actually carried from place to place ■by birds. ' . By ascertaining the course taken by the birds from the soutli, Mr. Keegan will secure knowledge as to the points in the province which nre most likely to he first attocked by the pests. This knowledge, he stated, would prove of Immense value In exterminating the pests, ... That British Columbia has up to the present time heen practically immune from the codlin moth is in Mr, Kee- gan's opinion due to the Inspection of fruit and trees made nt ports of entrance by Thomas Cunningham, fruit pest inspector, and his assistants. One carload of fruit was resealed and Bent hack to its shipping point south of the line a few weeks ago which was literally buzzing with codlin moths, he stated. But In spite of this Inspecllon work he believes it inevitable that the moths and the San Jose scale should some time follow the migrations of the birds and reach this province. It Is in or der that the government experts may be best prepared to fight the pests thnt present Investigations nre being made. NEWS OF PROSPEROUS PEND D'OREILLE VALLEY (Special to Thp Ball* News.)

LONDON, Sept. 2—The "Jezreelites"—-the singular Kentish sect, whose unfinished temple stands near Chatham, which every traveller to Thannet asks the origin of—seems to hnve taken a fresh lease of life. Of all freak religions, this is certainly the merryist as well as one of the strangest. At present the head of the sect, a certain Prince Michael, Is seeking to support himself and his rather singular household by engaging in trade and has sent around a circular, which Is a jumble of texts of scripture,'concerning hlB wares. It Is not generally known that the Jezreelites are quite an established sect, and that there was a time when they closely resembled In religious views the Agapemonites. One Gold, a Kentish merchant long deceased, was the founder of the Jezreelites, so named because of tho old gentleman imagined himself to be the Prince Jezreel who reigned over'Israel In Judah. Meetings were held at first in a hop warehouse belonging to Gold, and many wild excesses took place that created no little hubbub In Kent. Then it was gravely announced that the promised "Shlloh" (the Savior of the World) was shortly to he born to one of the young women with whom the elderly ''prophet*' consorted. It was In honor of this great event that the temple was commenced. But "Shlloh" proved to be a girl, and the sect almost came to an end, while the gaunt remains of the temple stood as a monument of folly. It Is worthy of note that both this sect and the Agapemonites came into being at the same time, and with much the same principles. Serious Disaster Narrowly Averted on Ruiaian -Read—Logs on Track — Miacreant Captured. ODESSA,. .Sept. 2.—What might have pro^'to1 be a serious railway disaster .'.'was*':-, narrowly averted the other day by,/.tiie vigilance of an engine driver, on thc Southwestern system. A passenger train from Odessa to Kleff wap. approuchlng in the early dawn tbe small station of Sapalgorod when he very fortunately observed an obstruction.aboiit 100 yards ahead. He Immediately applied the Westinghouse brake and i$eveMJed the engine, coming to a halt only: a few paces from two heavy oak logs laid siiuarely across the metals. ! The local, police failing to trace the author of the. outrage, telegraphed to Odessa for the assistance of the widely famed* dbg defective Spitz, and the animal was immediately despatched in charge ofageiidarnit' officer, On thc scene of the .'attempted outrage. Spitz made a careful Sniffing examination of the oak logs; ahd then unhesitatingly struck a trail, led the officers through an adjacent wood, beyond which was a small hamlet. Spitz was here unleashed, and at once bounded off, nose to ground,' 'to a two-roomed hut, occupied by a woodman named Yukoff, at the door of which ho barked impatiently. When admitted the dog rushed Into the bedroom and BeUed the sleeping woodman by the leg, dragging him from his couch. Yukoff at first strongly protested his /innocence, then, suddenly paling and pointing to Spitz, asked whose dog it was. Yukoff no sooner heard the dog's name than— such is the animal's celebrity through the province—he at once confessed. The culprit had a couple of months ago been dismissed from the railway service, and, with the revengeful desire of procuring the "distance chiefs" dismissal, he had attempted to derail the train. Spitz has never yet failed in tracking down any criminal quarry upon whose trail he has been put; he is incomparably the cleverest member of the Odessa detective corps.

Patenaude BABY BONUS LATEST AUSTRALIAN PLAN McQttattie & Robertson Principle of State Aid Develops Under Labor Administration—Taxpayers' Bill Heavy. MELBOURNE, Sept. 2.—The announcement by the federal labor government, of the details of Us maternity grant scheme—or "baby bonus," as lt Is termed—has set Australia dlseusa- ing the limits of social subsidies from a new standpoint,. The popularity of the plan under which every needy mother is to receive )25 on tho registration of a newly born child Is undoubted. It is fiercely denounced by Fusion politicians as a low-down bribe to the women and as a kind of Bet-bff to the Labor party's abolition of postal voting. But thoughtful Liberal leaders like Mr. Deakin do not take this line; they recognize the Justice of some aid at the maternity period of the life of a woman whose husband Is so poor as to be unable to give her essential comforts. It is an open secret that long before the Labor ministry's'announcement several leading liberals were quietly feeling their way toward a workable scheme. Liberal Alternative. As It Is, at least one Liberal organization has made public Us Ideas concerning an alternative. Only this week at the second annual conference of the Tasmanlan Liberal league, at which 120 delegates were present, It was unanimously agreed that a state fund be established for thc relief of poor widows left with young children. Gradually the principle of state aid is being conceded, and the discussion is converging on safeguards from fraud and questions of thrift contributions, and, above all, of cost, The Australian taxpayer is alarmed at the prospective cost of the fulfillment of Labor's dreams. The Labor party has turned its back on the German and Lloyd George social Insurance systems because they Involve personal contributions. All its own schemes are free doles from the treasi ury—extensions of the Invalid and old age pension systems. Public men outside the Labor rankB are, therefore, vigorously Bounding a warning note. A few days ago, stepping straight from the state into the federal arena, the new premier of Victoria, Mr. Watt, delivered a speech in which this note rang from end to end of a vigorous deliverance. Heavy Bill for Taxpayers. Mr. Watt's theme centred in a remarkable calculation of the financial effects of the "grantz system," as supplied to the pockets of the 1,040,000 bread-winners of Australia, His calculation was hosed on very low charges for the keeping and feeding of children, and was not extravagant in other details. Yet, when he had finished, the "grants system" produced a bill of nearly $8*5,000,000 a year for the taxpayer to pay—and this without the "baby bonus." The widespread circulation of these figures is having a marked Influence on electors, and unless they can be broken down by detailed analysis, they will have a material effect on the next federal elections, when the Labor party will ask for a further lease of power. Liberals will meet the situation with an adaptation of Australian conditions of the Imperial parliament's great Insurance act.

Published at Nelaon Every Morning Except Sunday, by Tha News Publishing Company, Limited. W. G. POSTER, Editor and Manager. TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 3 C. P. R'S. PLAN8. j It is now reported that, instead of purchasing the Nelson and Port Shepherd and tbo Red Mountain railways between Marcus and Nelson and Ross- jand respectively, a step which it was recently stated the Canadian Pacific railway had under advisement, that Company has secured running rights ■jiver the lines mentioned. To this Is •lidded a statement to the effect that by building a lino along the Pend ■^'Oreille river, a distance of some 30 Allies, from Metalline Falls, Wash., to Trail, the Canadian Pacific railway Intends to provide a freight route between Crow's Nest polntB, east of Yank, and Rossland, Trail, the Boundary and the coast. .Such a policy it is quite conceivable might <be adopted as an abandonment of the construction of tho line from Kootenay Landing to Proctor, and H la aocoptod by some already that this ia tho policy of tho Canadian Pacific Railway company. Whether ft Is or toot is for tho officials of lhat corporation to know, and to say if they choose. The Daily News Is not In the confidence of the Canadian Pacific railway, but it can say that It is hardly likely that tbo company would adopt any such course It Is under obligation to the people of Canada and to the people of this dislrict to build the line between Kootenay Landing and Proctor when called upon to do so by tbo proper authorities. But apart from this is the fact that when ■ through connection is established between tho Kootenays and the coast, the demand will be for the shortest and the best route and there is no ■question but what this can be obtained through tho construction of the line from Kootenay Landing to Proctor. which would givo a continuous lino of railway from Hope to Winnipeg, independent of the main line and wholly through Canadian territory. one of extreme impertinence. What right had they, in the first place, to mako any such demnnds as they did? Surely . the women of Canada know their own minds and can speak for themselves in such a matter. But even if the women who addressed Mr. Borden on the subject could in any way Justify their action in attempting to Interfere in a matter that is of purely Canadian Interest, what can be said In support of the attitude which they assumed in presenting their views? That he had no intention of complying with the wishes of Uie English suffragettes in regard to so altering tho franchise system of Canada as to thrust upon the women of this country the duty of voting, whether or not thoy were willing to accept that duty, was made abundantly clear by the Canadian premier. What will be the next move of the English suffragettes in the matter will be interesting to sec. This much, however, can be said, that if these women attempt to Introduce Into Canada any of the methods which have brought disgrace upon their cause in tho Old Country, they should ho punished, without regard to sex or standing. A firm attitude at thc start will save trouble later. EDITORIAL NOTES. Judging by telegraphic dispatches, Labor day was properly celebrated from one end of Canada to tho other. Tho prairie is having good weather, which will compensate to a certain de- greo at least for the kind which British Columbia is undergoing at present. Apparently President Taft was on tho horns of a dilemma when he signed the Panama canal bill In thc face of the terms of tho Hay-Pauncefote treaty. Now he finds himself still there—only more so. fi FIRM ATTITUDE WILL SAVE TROUBLE. \ Premier Borden Is now on his way home, probably In no way dismayed by the threat of the English suffragettes that they may introduce their militant methods into Canada in order to force him to bestow upon the Women of Canada the right to vote in parliamentary elections. It was ln vain that Mr. Borden pointed out to tfyese women that the Dominion government does not of itself control the franchise, but that for its purposes it accepts that of the various provinces. They demanded, more or less calmly, that the Dominion government should reverse Us policy in this respect and should assume control of the franchise for the purpose of supplying votes to tbe women of Canada, whether or not the women of Canada were anxious to bc placed upon an equality with men in this respect. Falling this the threat was mado that Canada would bc invaded by amazons of the type which have for tho past few years made the lives of British cabinet ministers miserable for the purposes of waging a similar war against the members or t|ie Canadian government. The attitude taken by thc suffragettes in addressing Mr. Borden was I Cold Storage | "How much are these puppies, little boy?"

The Sun has been published continuously since that time, und :s usually considered one of tbe most Influential of American newspapers. The first Sunday school was held in Gloucester, England, V& years ago today, the Idea having originated with Robert Raikes, an editor of that city.

People Not Behind Panama Bill. He hud no quarrel with tho people to- the south, continued Mr. Green. They wero wise people and knew a good thing when thoy saw It and for that reason had wanted reciprocity with Canada. While Liberals pointed to Saskatchewan and said that reciprocity wns not dead, he had no hesitation in saying that as far as British Columbia was concerned, as fnr as any province in Canada was concerned, reciprocity was a dead issue. Many things were henrd of the people to the south. Somo apparently unkind things were said of them with some Justification. With regard tb the Panama canal it was goncrnlly stated In the press of Canada, Great Britain and in somo of the papers In tho United States that the hill did not live up to the Hay-Pauncefote treaty inasmuch that it would discriminate against British Columbia. It was true that this law had been passed by congress and the senate, that it had received the president's signature and that it was on the statute books of the United States, but ho knew tho A.merlcan people welt enough to say that they had never authorized such an act, that they would see that lt wos never carried out and that tbe treaty Would be observed. He did not bcllevo that the United States should be criticised too harshly. It should be remembered that an election was coming on and that somo of the politicians south of thc line were anxious to get into the limelight. If the hearts of thc people were reached, Mr. Green was sure that It would bo found thnt they wished to act honorably and that the people of tho British empire would got what was coming to them. Will Aid Motherland. Thc keynote which had been struck by Sir Richard McBride, imperialism, continued thc speaker, was an idea Which had been carried further by Premier Borden nnd Hon. J. D. Hazen by their visit to the old country to confer as to what Canada should do for the empiro in the matter of the navy. "I believe that the-people of Canada are a unit on this matter and that the Dominion will do what Is necessary to help the old motherland to fight her battles," said Mr. Green, who paid a tribute to Mr. Borden for the manner in which he liad>'carried-out the conference with the British ministers: "Canada will not take a hack scat when It Is necessary for funds to be provided," declared the speaker t After pointing out tbe manner ln which Sir Richard McBride had aided in furthering this sentiment, tho mem1 ber for Kootenay concluded; "Every statesman, every politician—I say politician 'because there Is a difference— every man born in Canada, every man who has been naturalized in Canada, believes in one flng, one King, one land and one navy." A vote of thanks to Mr. Green was moved by Mr. Shannon of tho Willow Point-association and seconded by Mr. Robb, representing thc Kaslo Conservative association. Pierrots Delight Many.

Sometimes this Is not the case iind we see some people much distressed by a continuous or Intermittent flow of tonrs en-- tirely independent of any sentimental causes. This is due to two causes principally. One Is nervous irritation or spasm, the other follows Ihe first and Is nervous exhaustion.

In Spirit of Cordiality. (By DHily News Leased Wire.) LONDON, Sept. 3.—The Daily News in an editorial this morning nrgues thnt the British demand for arbitration concerning the Panama canal toll act was made in the spirit of cordfnltty which has existed between the United States und Great Britain for ninny years and which last year brought about an ntetmpt lo establish permanent, machinery for arbitration, which attempt proved unsuccessful owing to Hie adverse action of the American senate. Tbe Daily News continues: "Tho demand will furnish an excellent test of the working of tho system President Toft then hoped to create. It Is not wholly to be regretted thut the approaching celebration of a century of peace between the two nations should bo preceded by an opportunity of showing how that pence hns boon maintained and will bo secured as an enduring monument to the good senae and enlightenment of the English- rpeaiting race." War Ineffective. (By Daily News Logged Wire.) LONDON, Sept. *.~-"Normnn An- goll" (Ralph Norman Angoli Lane), the author nnd newspaper correspondent who has been thn general manager of thc Dally Mail In Paris since 1905 contributes to lhat paper a strlk Ing article on tlio Panama canal law entitled "Why Not Fight?" He starts out by suggesting hypothetical^ a series of offences committed by Germany against England which ho says would give an Anglo- German war infinitely greater justifi- cation than most of the wars of history and would Indeed, make war Inev itable. Thoso offences nre intended as exact parallels of what the English regard as American offences ngnlnsi England In the past, 10 yenrs and whoso logical method of settlement would he by war. "But," suys Mr. Lime, "we have nol gone to war. We shall not go to war We arc nol even thinking'o^f wnr." This, he argues, is not because blood is thicker than water for when the Americans were really of English blond which they nre not now, went to wnr wilh them twice, so it is not for that reason that we submit to the affronts of the Americans, The* mnnon is because war would bo ineffective. "We could not impose our will by war, America is not only impregna bio bijt is quite obviously Impregnable. Wo could, it is true, destroy her navy; hqmbnrd her ports, blockade her consts hut we should thereby create n positlnn far more serious for ourselves than for her. She would bo embarrassed; we would starve." SECURES CONTRACT. (~v Dnlly News Leased Wire.)

The weather was .anything but cricket-like on Saturday, but a small band of Nolsonltes journeyed down to Jfrultvale to meet' the local eleven. Both teams wore short-handed, Nelson only playing' eight men. A start was made about 2 o'clock, and Wilkinson and Main went out to the wicket, but the former retired early, falling a vlc- ln.. to Aldersmlth. The first three wickets Iell fairly fast, but Greig and Williamson made a stand and warmed up tho chilly1, fields a little. Palmer and Parks continued the good work and raised the score to a very respectable total. Later on Graham, by adhering striotly to baseball methods, made a few meteoric hlta to the boundary. The score was 71, and Fruitvale found this far 'beyond their powers, Greig and WiUilnsbn were in rare bowling fettle ahd':a long series of ducks were soon marked up against the Fruitvale hatters. Kldd broke the sequence at last with a nice couple to leg and soon' afterwards Sutellffe did a little bit on his own. Four fours In one over from Greig brightened matters up a little, .'but soon afterward thc innings closed for 34, Nelson thus winning by 87 runs. Afternoon tea was provided hy tho ladles of Frult- vsle. A most enjoyable smoker took place In the evening at the Fruitvale hotel. On Saturday, owing to the Inclement weather, it was impossible to start play until well into the afternoon, Fruitvale won the toss and decided to bat, sending in Gerrard and Greenwood to face the bowling of Wilkinson and Greig. In Wilkinson's second over Green* wood was clean bowled, and in the following over Gillespie, who had taken his place, was also bowled. Gerrard and Sutellffe mado a stand, but rum* eame very slowly. With the score at 20, Greig, who had been howling an exceptioaaily good length, beat Gc: rard. Kuns began to come a llttlo more quickly and with tho score nt 59 for six wickets Fruitvale decided to declare, leaving Nelson just under 30 minutes in which to make the runs. This looked almost a hopeless task on a slow ground. Nelson sent in Wilkinson and Greig to face the bowllhg of Gillespie and Aldersmlth, and with some fine hitting and clean drives carried the score to 62 before thc call of time, Wilkinson heing not out 30 and Greig not out 23, and Nelson thus winning by 10 wickets.

MONTREAL, Sept. 2.—The players of the Irish-Canadian lacrosse team surely earned their salaries at the Mafsonneuve grounds on the holiday when they took the Nationals Into camp In an easy manner by a score of 6-4 and at times fairly played them off their feet. There was a vast difference between the game played on Labor day and that of Saturday. The officials had the men under better control and only one or two mlxups occured during the 80 minutes of play. In one of these Gauthier was given the butt end of a stick ln thc side and had to rotlre for the remainder of the afternoon. The other took plnce when Pftre fouled Monday and they clinched and went at it In earnest.

(Special to The Dallv Nows.) ROSSLAND, B. C, Sept. 2.—The football game between Trail and Rossland wns one of Ihe hardest and most evenly fought games ever seen In the Golden City, and although the ground was heavy with tho recent rains many good bits of play were seen by tho spectators. Rossland won the Iobs and cliose to play to the south goal and immediately at the kickoff transferred the play lo the Trail goal. Nichol, ono of the Trail backs kicked well out and cleared tho goal. Tho ball wns then carried down to the Rossland goal and from a scrimmage outside the penalty line Young scored thc first goal of the match for Trail which left them in the leud which they held until long after half time. Time after time did Rossland make hard tries for the Trail goal but found Jones all there and very hard to lieat. The play was transferred to the Rossland end whore Sandy Altken was keeping a good goal for Rossland and who was punting out shot after shot that looked to tho spectators as though they were unsavable. Half lime was called with Trail still in the lead. At the start after half time Trail It-led their hardest to increase their lead and Rossland tried to equalize The two teams were playing all they knew and it was anybody's game when after a pretty bit of passing between Lawrle and Lee the latter took a neat pass and planted the ball between the uprights and made the game even, much to the delight of the spectators. Trail was playing a better combination game than Rossland but found It Impossible to get through thc Rossland defence, which was very strong. A visit to the Trail goal resulted In a penalty being awarded Rossland for a Trail man hitting tho Ull with his hand. Lawrle took the penalty and kicked a low swift ball which was (splendidly saved by Jones. The 22 men on the field wero playing like Trojans and there were no passengers, every one doing all bo could, but thc heavy ground was telling on the players, who were playing so hard that when Ihe referee blew his whistle for tlmo up they were more than glad, for an hour and a half on that heavy ground was no joke. Tho teams wore: Trail—Goal, Ray Jones; backs, Nichol and Groom; halfbacks, Mellardy, Potter nnd Mcllroy: forwards, Dunn, Davlcs, Maclean, Young and towns. Rossland—Goal, Altken; backs.

A good many humorous Incidents occurred in the pools of water which were all over thc field. Nelson came away strong at tiie commencement' of the third quarter and looked like scoring, but were too slow at shooting and were consequently prevented from scoring. A great rush down the whole length of tho field and Bradden scored (he third goal for Rosslnnd with a long low Shot which beat the Nelson goal. Still playing n hard game although three goals down.

The year following his first fight with Gans. the Battler again attacked Jimmy Britt, and lost in twenty rounds. On tho Fourth of July, 1008, Guns and Nelson again fought for the lightweight title, llils time in San Francisco. Joe fought his usual heady battle, but could not withstand the rushes of the terrible . Dane, and he went down for the count In tho seventeenth round. Nelson gave Joe another chance on Sept 9 of the same year, but Joe, worn out by his long career in tbe ring, could not "come back," although be managed to last twenty-one rounds. SIXTH ANNIVERSARY OF GANS-NELSON BATTLE (By "Gravy.") It was only six years ngo today that Joe Cans and Battling Nelson mingled nl Goldficld, Nov., in their first memorable battle for the lightweight championship of the world. Both men were then in their prime, but today "the old master" is dead and the Danish battler: is descended to the ranks of the second-raters among boxers. Sure, it Is a short life and a merry ->rte for tho professional biff artists. When Gans and iNelson met on Sept. 3, 1006, the Nevada mining city was filled with sports from all over the United States and Canada. Tbe tfate receipts for the event were $60,715, and broke all records, surpassing the high figures set, by,, P]t.he Jeffries-Sharkey and Corbctt-M-eCoy affnlrs in New York, nnd th'e^Jeffrles-Corhett battle in San Francisco. Both Guns and Nelson had whipped Jimmy Brltt, tlie only other contender for the title, and the winner would have a clear claim on tho llghtwolght championship. Nelson fought fiercely and ut times was guilty of violations of the rules, Gans, "the old master," demonstrated In this battle 'that ho was the greatest ring general thc world had ever seen. He fairly tore the durable Dane Into strips, but could not stop him. and -Nelson might hnve won in the end if lie hud been more careful. In tho forty-second round he sent over a blow below the belt, and the negro dropped~groaning to the floor. Referee Slier gave the decision to Joo on n foul. Although the victor.

He Is said lo stand In the centre of the kawara, where he preaches to the children as they pile up stones, one for the salvation of their father, one for the mother, the third for brothers, thc fourth for sisters, and the fifth for their own salvation. 'When night comes bn and the wind blows hard, a gigantic evil spirit appears, and with a huge iron rod knocks down the heaps of stones which the children have made, und they arc so frightened that they run to .llzo and hide themselves In the big sleeves of his kimono, which have a miraculous way of increasing In size according to the number of children who seek refuge. Then the evil spirit disappears, and the children begin again tlie work of heaping up stones. Passing through cemeteries fl Japan, one sees tombs that have the Image of Jizo carved upon them, as the parents take that way of gaining the special favor of Jizo for their children, and one will sec llttlo piles of stones built up by the parents and brothers und sisters of the children wilh the hope of helping in tho tedious work of the little ones in thc knwaru.— The Christian Herald.

Every step towards Lhasa made ,by llie Dalai Ljima Is being watched with greut Interest, not only by thc government of India, which, of course, 'Is deeply concerned with our future political relations with Tibet, but hy niuny millions of Huddhlsts ull " over - the world, and by a great multitude of Hindus. To the Buddhists the Dalai Lama is an Incarnation of Buddha'; to thc Hindus he Is the personification of a religion which once dominated India, and which still exercises a profound influence over the moraltty.and philosophy of Hinduism. At Tuna thc Dalai Lama has expressed his Intention of halting till he receives an armed escort from- Lhasa. Tuna Is within a few miles of tho hot springs at Guru, the name of which place must have burnod itself deep into Tibetan memory, for it was here that, as a result of Tibetan treachery and rashness, lho flower of the Tibetan army was destroyed in a few minutes by our magazine rifles and Maxims during the expedition ot 1904. The fact that the Dalai Lnma refuses to go any further till he receives an armed escort from Lhasa throws a light on the domestic politics of Tibet Th-?re0are.,i\o Cfcinesp on,th's Si-djfe ot Lhasa, and the demand for nn escort which has come all the way down from the capital, Indicates that, in addition to' the pro-Chinese party In Lhasa, consisting of the truculent monks of Depong and Sera, the Dnlal's ministers nre afraid of the attitude of the inhabitants between Gyantse* and tho Sanpo. It-happens that the Dnlalis now entering a country where .the party known as the Red Hats hold'full sway. The differences between the Red Hats, as the monks of Shlgatso'nre styled, and the Yellow Hats, who nre (he Dalnl Ltima's party, are of a theological, nnd, therefore, very bitter kind, The lied Hats hnve grouped themselves around tho Tashi Lama, who, poor soul, is a very harmless and innocent person. His followers, however, jealous of the dominance of the Dalai Lama, and possibly believing that the latter is responsible for all the troubles of the country, may make use of the opportunity to seize the persons of the Dalai nnd bis Yellow Hat ministers, while the party Is malting Us leisurely progress through the Gy-- antse valley. The groat monastery of Tashl-liunpo, with its thousands of Red Hat monks, Is within a day's march of Gyantse. It might he suggested that,- if the Fed Hats are so furiously jealous of thc Dalai Lama, they would have' Intercepted him on his journey to India, but the reply is that that journey was so unexpected, and made in such furious haste tha t the ca va lea de ha d passed through Gynntne before tbo local people were even aware thnt it was coming. Of course, we do not suggest that the Red Hals would be prepared to outrngo all Buddhistic fooling by offering violence to tiio person of tho Dalai Lama, but Ihere are cer- Ininly among his ministers certain Shapes who are not particular favorites of the Gyantse and Shlgatse folk. There are other dangers of tbo road, also. Tho Red Idol Gorge and ' the Kuro-la are haunted by brigands and outlaws, with no trace of religion, to whom tho Dalai Lama's cavalcade would be too rich a prize to be resisted. Again, when the Snnpo Is safely crossed, thc Dalai Lama will be. entering a region which, whether Yellow Hat or not, may have been prepared to oppose his entry into Lhasa by the pro-Chinese abbot of Sera nnd the friends of the Te Rimpnche, the greatly respected president of thc council whom the Dalnl Lnma threw into prison, where he died. Altogether then, the Dalai Lama, If he proceeds on his journey, will be again meeting with dangers similar to those which have already crowded his adventurous and extraordinary life.—The Calcutta Englishman, A LESSON IN FLY-CA8TING I How Jack Taught the Gentle Art With Patien'oe, He cast, varying his line, varying his direction, with easy skill, over the dark, wild water, all tho time telling how apd why.

That was only one question that should have been Involved in the discussion about the lovying of tolls on the commerce of the Panama canal, and that was: Shall the United States government keep its plighted faith with the nations of the world, as embodied in tho Hay-Pauncefote treaty? It is too clear to be disputed that our national honor Is the supreme Issuo in this controversy. No matter how cunningly tlie language of the treaty may bo twisted and distorted, it cannot be made to say anything else than what It declares on Its face. This is so obvious that the ablest lawyers in the senate have warned that body and the house of representatives that if a violation of the treaty is attempted the question will -be taken to The Hague tribunal, with the certainty that it will be decided against us at a cosl of many millions of-dollars, since in the case of an adverse decision the United States government would have to refund all the tolls It had collected from foreign ships, and would have to open the canal to all nations on the same terms that we had opened it to our own ships—that Is, without any tolls whatever. The greatest service our rulers at Washington can do to the country is to see that its -honor is kept as untarnished as tiiat of the most scrupulous gentleman.

FRACHE BROS. - Columbia, B. C. TELLS OF ROADS IN BRITISH COLUMBIA Trans-Canada Highway Idea Advanced by Hon. Thomas Taylor Described in English Newspape.r: The following account of the good roads movement In Canada generally and British Columbia particularly Is from a leading English newspaper: The Good Roads Movement ' Reference has been made from time to time In this column to the good roads movement as one of the most interesting phases of Canadian development. Until recently the energies of the Canadian people were devoted chiefly to the building of railroads, and the contrast 'between the comfort ahd efficiency of the railways and the roughness of the ordinary Canadian highway was very noticeable to the visitor from the old country. All that Is now to be remedied, and large sums of money are being voted by the Dominion and provincial governments towards the cost of Improving the roads for the farmer's cart and the tourist's motor car; strange to say, the railways themselves are Infected with this new enthusiasm, and the cost of one of these new roads over the Rockies, the highway of the great divide, Is being shared by the C. P. R. A Minister in a Magazine, W. W. Foster, the deputy minister of public works in the province of British Columbia, recently wrote a very interesting article in the British Columbia Magazine on this new phase of national development. In past years, according to Mr. Foster, before British Columbia entered upon Its present era of prosperity, old trails many of them relics of Indian and game tracks, were Improved each year with more regard to Immediate necessity and economy than future utility. Theso trails followed the line of least resistance to an objective point for the time being, and had' hardly any other feature to commend them. The comprehensive plan now being worked upon, which will result In a complete system of trunk roads throughout the province, with the necessary local treatment for the differing needs of mining, timber or agricultural districts, requires a careful reconnaissance of existing as well as projected roads to ensure that most essential Item of location being given the closest consideration. The Canadian road building methods of even a few years ago oro obsolete. This applies particularly to suburban and main trunk roads, where the constant and differing action of motor cars and other Im* proved means of road transportation rapidly disintegrate the ordinary "water bound" road. This necessl tates the use of special surfacing or paving that was never used formerly From Atlantio to Pacific. Attracting first attention amongst such roads Is the Intor-Provlncial highway, a road which will ultimately stretch from Atlantic to Pacific, and which may very probably be named after King George, This undertaking was made, practicable toy the minister of public works, Hon'. Thomas Taylor* who after a plan of action had been formulated and preparatory work commenced In British Columbia, secured the co-operation of the sister provinces of Alberta, Saskatchewan and Manitoba, and. It would now appear that the Dominion government, also realizing the immense benefit to toe secured hy a great highway traversing the Dominion, will support It financially, which will result ln the completion of the road at a much earlier date than would otherwise have been possible. In British Columbia considerable progress was made last year, and throughout the season surveyors were engaged mapping out the route, which, ■commencing at Vancouver and New Westminster, runs to Hope, over the mountains via Princeton to Trail and thence toy a route yet to be decided to the Alberta 'boundary. An International Road. Complementary to the Inter-Provln- Clal highway Is the International Pacific road, running from Mexico to Vancouver, a distance of 2,000 miles, the British Columbia portion of which is rapidly being brought up to standard. This trunk road will ultimately ba continued In a northerly direction through British Columbia to the Alaskan boundnry. Good Home-Made Bread.
