II, NO. 8 HAZELTON, B. C. SATURDAY, OCTOBER 2G, 1912 PRICE $2.00 A YEAR GREAT PERIL FOB BU Lord Roberts Warns Empire of Grave Danger���"Arm Yourselves" He Says ORDEAL NEAR AT HAND Germany Only Awaiting Her Hour to Strike ��� Lord Curzon Agrees With Veteran Warrior���Treaties and Tribunals of no Avail in Time of Crisis Manchester, October 24:���A solemn, warning of Britain's immediate danger was given by Lord Roberts in a speech here which created a profound impression. The veteran of many wars declared the nation's peril at great length and with much emotion. The ordeal, he said, was near at hand; Germany would strike when her hour struck. For this hour Germany has been long preparing. The speaker urged Britons to awaken to the Empire's responsibilities at once. "If these are my last words," he concluded, "I will say, 'Arm Yourselves.'" Treaties Unavailing London, Oct. 24:���Lord Curzon, in a speech delivered here today, agreed with Lord Roberts' estimate of Britain's peril, adding that Hague treaties and tribunals were alike broken in time of crisis. We live, he said, in an age of colossal hyprocrisy. Munitions of War London, Oct. 21:���Not since the time of the South African war, says a Woolwich correspondent, has there been such exceptional activity in the Royal Arsenal in the department for the manufacture of explosives. In the gun foundry, which provides heavy guns for the navy as well field guns for the army, the impetus is particularly notable. In practically all branches of arsenal work, the existing staff of over 8,000 men is being called upon to put in extra time. It is worthy of note, adds the correspondent, that the higher pressure is to be found in the naval works. Would Lynch Johnson Chicago, 111., Oct. 21:���A howling mob of several hundred infuriated white men blocked traffic for several hours on Saturday in front of the First National Bank in an effort to reach Jack Johnson, the champion pugilist of the world, and lynch him for the abduction of a young girl, Lucille Cameron, for which he was arrested earlier in the day and was released on bail of $1,500. He escaped through the rear door of the bank and made his getaway, but later the mob surrounded him again and it was only after a desperate struggle between the citizens and the six strong pugilists who acted as a bodyguard for him and the coming of the police reserves that he escaped a horrible death, His "golden smile" has vanished and he is wearing a furtive, hunted look. The Cameron girl was released on $25,000 bonds to appear as n witness against Johnson and Jeanette Door, who will both be arraigned on charges of engaging in the white slave traffic. New Steamer Schedule Prince Rupert: Commencing next week, the G. T. P. will run only one steamer a week from Vancouver to Prince Rupert. Steamers will arrive Wednesdays and leave Fridays. Board of Trade Asks for Railway Station At the regular quarterly meeting of the board of trade on Tuesday evening, a resolution, of which due notice had been given, urging the immediate authorization by the railway board of the South Hazelton station, was carried and telegraphed to the commissioners. Eleven members of the board voted against the resolution. Big Fruit Crop Vernon, Oct. 24:���Okanagan this season yielded the most prolific fruit crop in its history. Inadequate facilities for the shipment of the immense crop result in hundreds of tons of peaches rotting on the ground, while carloads of apples will never reach consumers. Twenty-seven Vancouver'fruit dealers are here in conference with the growers. An agreement for cooperation is being arranged. MODERN IDEAS FOR VALLEY TOWNSITE Railway Taking Steps for Establishment of Town at Important Point in Bulkley There appears to be reasonable ground for the belief that the Grand Trunk Pacific intends to establish a town on the land recently acquired by the company about three miles east of Telkwa. Yesterday morning W. P. Murray left for Telkwa, and it is understood his business in the Valley is connected with the projected townsite. Accompanying Mr. Murray were P. C. Coates, who is chief of a party of surveyors. The work of subdividing the townsite will begin immediately and will be continued all winter should weather permit. It is reported that in a short time Mr. Coates' party will be reinforced by one or more landscape experts, who will assist in laying out the townsite. From this it is to be inferred that the railway company expects great things of the Valley and is prepared to establish the town on modern lines. Local sportsmen have made good bags of grouse since the season opened. In the immediate vicinity of town the birds are pow scarce. Bohemian Club Opening (Special to The Minor) Telkwa, Oct. 21:���The opening at home of the Bohemian Club was held on Thursday evening and proved a successful and enjoyable affair. The hall was tastefully decorated by the ladies, under the supervision of Mes- dames Dorreen and Wallace, and was divided into two parts, one for cards and, later, dancing, and the other arranged as a retreat, with luxurious cozy corners, etc. Considerable ingenuity was displayed in the arrangement and decorations, for which great credit is due the ladies. A choice musical program was provided, after which a tasty lunch was served. The tables being cleared, the members and visitors danced to their hearts' content. The at home was voted a brilliant success. Mr. and Mrs. Dorreen are leaving for Hazelton. They will be much missed by the club, in which they have taken great interest. THE TURK AT BAY HARASSED BT ENEMIES ON EVERY SIDE Early Engagements of Balkan War Disastrous to Ottoman Arms���Forts and Towns Captured by Allies���Thousands of Turks Are Taken Prisoners During Week. Sofia, Oct. 23.���There is great rejoicing here over the capture by Bulgarian forces of Kirk Kilisseh, the Turkish fortress which is regarded as the key to Adrianople and the headquarters of the Turkish third army. It was the first great battle between the Bulgarian and Turkish forces. Reports so far received do not give the number of casualties, but state that fifty thousand of the enemy were taken prisoners by the Bulgarian army. A Bulgarian aviator circled over the forts of Adrianople at a height of one thousand feet. He was made a target by the Turks, but returned safely with valuable information. of Arda fled, leaving a hundred dead and large quantities o f supplies. The Retort Courteous London, Oct. 23:���When the Sultan of Turkey mobilized his troops he sent King Ferdinand of Bulgaria a sack of millet, with this message: "Mobilize if you like; but be assured there are as many soldiers in Turkey as there are grains in this sack." The Bulgarian monarch replied by sending a sack of red pepper, with a note saying: "Bulgarians are not numerous, it is true; but be assured that to stick your nose into their affairs is like sticking it into their national condiment. Try it and see. They will sting you so sharply that the whole of Asia shall not be able to save you." Greek Fleet Active Athens, Oct. 21:���The Agean squadron of the Greek fleet arrived at Kastro, the capital of the Island of Lemnos, and commanded the authorities to surrender. When this was refused the fleet anchored and landed troops, which advanced to the county town. A blockade was proclaimed of the port of Lemnos and others on the coast. Turks Lose Big Battle Athens, Oct. 23:���Greek forces defeated twenty-two battalions of Turks, beyond Elassona, according to a despatch just received from Crown Prince Con- stantine, commander-in-chief of the Greek army. Servians Take Town London, Oct. 23:��� Servians have captured the important Turkish town of Novibasear after a fierce engagement in which severe losses were sustained on each side. The Turks are retreating. Owing to rigorous censorship little news has been received of the battles and movements of the war. Okanagan Apple Show Vernon; The big apple show was opened on Wednesday by Sir Richard McBride, who came here for the purpose on the conclusion of his Nelson trip. B. C. Conservatives Are Enthusiastic Revelstoke, Oct. 24:���The best attended and most enthusiastic Conservative convention ever held in British Columbia gave Sir Richard McBride a great ovation today at the opening of the annual meeting of the B. C. Conservative Association. The Premier,. Attorney-General Bowser, Hon. Thos. Taylor, H. H. Scevens, R. F. Green and H. S. Clements delivered stirring addresses on the federal and provincial victories of the party. The secretary':, report showed remarkable growth for the organization, resulting in increased work for the executive. Over 5000 communications were dealt with during the year. President Mackay, in his address, urged the appointment of an assistant secretary and also of a permanent organizer to work in the northern interior and other new sections of the province. Greeks Leave For War Vancouver, Oct. 24:��� Three hundred Greeks have left this city i1i the lasf week to take up arms against the Turks. Seven hundred more will go from British Columbia to the scene of war. Today's War News London, Oct. 26: -The Greeks have captured Servidji. The surrender of 20,000 Turks is reported. The Bulgarian occupation of Kirk Kilisseh is complete. The Montenegrins have surrounded Scutari. PARLIAMENT MEETS ON NOVEMBER 21 Capture of Arda Sofia, Oct. 23:��� The Bulgarian troops have won Arda and are now almost within range of the guns of Adrianople, to which stronghold the Turkish defenders To Assist Settlers' Work (Special lo Tin' Miner) Victoria, Oct. 23:���As on advance step to what is hoped to be a more general system of aid to settlers in clearing timbered j lands in this province, the de-! partment of agriculture has issued notification to the various j agricultural societies and farmers' institutes throughout the j province that it is prepared toj issue supplies of stumping pow- der to bona fide settlers free of | cost upon conditions which shall j be equitable both to the settler and to the province. The settler who is desirous of benefitting from this boon can obtain details of how to secure it from his provincial representative, from a secretary of his agricultural society or farmers' institute, or, failing both these, by direct application to the minister of agriculture here. The problem of how best to solve the question of the clearing The Opposing Forces London, Oct 23: -Following is an authorative estimate of the war strength of the nations engaged in the Balkan war, with the force each could immediately place in the field: Bulgaria: war strength, 375,- 000; field force, 235,000. Greece: war strength, 100,000; field force, 50,000. Servia: war strength, 175,000; field force, 110,000. Montenegro: war strength, 50,- 000; field force, 30,000. Turkey: war strength, 1,000,- 000; field force, 300,000. of lands of this province so as to make them available for agricultural purposes is a big one. The suggestion has been made that the government should assist settlers by direct grant. That suggestion is under consideration. Meanwhile, the prior step has been taken of providing settlers with the material with which they can attempt the work of stumping. This should be successful, in view of the fact that the explosive material is provided, and only the individual effort is required. But if the results of this experiment do not give the returns expected, then further action may be considered by the government. In the meantime the supply o f free powder is considered as a distinctly advance step. It is one which has been taken by no other province, and is further proof of the desire of the government to extend its cooperation to the settlers where it can be done to the public advantage. ExtensiveProgrfon of Legislation for Special Session-Probable Changes in Cabinet Ottawa, Oct. 21:���A proclamation calling parliament to meet on Nov. 21 was issued today. Premier Borden is apparently not perturbed by the withdrawal from the cabinet of Hon. F, D. Monk, who is resigning because the emergency naval contribution of $30,000,000 is to be passed without a plebiscite. ARMY I NAVr FOR CANADA Stronge Defensive Forces for Dominion Advocated by Sir Richard McBride DEPENDENT TOO LONG Canadians Should Themselves Furnish Protection for Which Country Has Always Relied Upon Britain Speech Greeted with Intense Enthusiasm Revelstoke, Oct 25:���At the Conservative banquet last night Premier McBride made such a stirring plea for a stronger navy and army for Canada that the large audience, including ladies in the gallery, spontaneously joined as one in singing "The Maple Leaf" and "Rule Britannia." "We are living in a fool's paradise," said Sir Richard. Speaking on national grounds,he pointed out the need of a navy to protect the B. C. coast from possible attack from the Orient. We have, he said, illimitable resources which are unprotected. Let us safeguard them. Let us be able to claim a Canadian army and navy, second in efficiency to none in the world. We have depended too long upon the mother country for the protection which we should ourselves furnish. The Dominion cannot do too much in assisting the Imperial defence to please the people of British Columbia. The premier hoped Mr. Borden would announce a strong naval policy, to which Canada would respond as one man. Hon. W. J. Bowser said the province and Dominion would combine to encourage the settlement in B. C. of white fishermen who in time of necessity would assist in manning a defence fleet. Madero in Difficulty Mexico City, Oct. 21: -General Felix Diaz, nephew of the exiled president, is the man of the hour Ottawa, Oct. 25: It is stated in ministerial circles that the premier has decided upon a temporary reorganization o f the . . ,, , , , cabinet in order that the govern-!,n Muex!ca Madero,s affairs haLve ment may meet the House on reached. a Qcr\\ u^ the Nov. 21 with all portfolios filled. : ���W*Uon ��f ����� cf',lnet having I been demanded.

The people of Canada will endorse the proposed action of the Borden administration in voting an appropriation of thirty million dollars as an emergency contribution to the Imperial navy. With the outbreak of a general war in the Balkans, there is grave danger that the European powers may become embroiled in a general conflict and that Great Britain may be called upon to defend herself from the aggressions of ambitious and unfriendly nations. The assurance of Canadian sympathy and support which is not the smallest part of the proposed contribution will be welcomed by the people of the empire as indicating that the Dominion will maintain its position as "A Great Part of a Greater Whole." That the danger of war is not remote is quite evident from the pronouncements of Lord Roberts and Lord Curzon, great soldier and great statesman. The British ship of state has weathered all the storms of the past; but a universal war, in which the Empire might stand practically alone against powerful and rapacious enemies, would prove a severe test of her strength and endurance. It is well that Canada is to stand in line with the rest of the British nations. During the six months from April 1 to October 1, of the current fiscal year, 273,049 immigrants arrived in Canada. Of this number 183,990 arrived at ocean ports and 89,569 from the United States. These figures show an increase of 13 per cent as compared with the number of arrivals for the corresponding months of the last fiscal year, which were 158,614 at ocean ports and 83,317 from the United States, making a total for the six months from April 1 to October 1, 1911, of 241,931. During the month of September this year there were 31,140 arrivals, 20,690 arriving at ocean ports and 10,450 from the United States as against 29,077 for September last year, of whom 17,594 were at ocean ports and 11,484 from the U. S. The immigration into Canada for the last half year is considerably greater than the entire population of Montenegro, the country which a few days ago declared war against Turkey. Clearing Bush Lands Dr. H. L. Gordon, a prominent Englishman, who recently visited Hazelton and district, is the author of the following article, which recently appeared in The Field: The average English emigrant to British Columbia has a horror of land clearing. Whilst American and other immigrants are securing uncleared land and adding daily to its value by their own work, the English immigrant clamors for cleared land. The first gains access to potentially rich districts at a low figure; the second helps to swell the demand for a limited supply, which has already raised prices to a figure which alarms those in search of an investment as well as of an occupation. Experience has taught me that land clearing is not necessarily an affair to avoid, but may be a healthy, enjoyable and profitable occupation. During a recent expedition through the central portion of British Columbia, which is being opened up by the Grand Trunk Pacific railway. I took a series of photographs which represent fairly the nature of the clearing in the inland districts of the province. In a wooded country the wooded land is generally the best land. No country is so densely timbered that it has no open patches, but these are not always desirable. The absence of growth may be due to one of two extremes- a poor or dry soil in which the seeds of trees find no nourishment, or a moist soil in which they are choked by exuberant growth of grasses. Open land of the first kind is to be avoided, and may be known by its sparse covering of poor grasses. The second kind may make admirable farm land with drainage. Poplar (cottonwood) is the chief growth on good soil in British Columbia, but birch, alder, spruce and willow occur also; these attract the professional land selector or "cruiser," but he suspects land covered with pine. Thick pine seldom indicates rich soil, but pine amongst poplar or spruce need not arouse suspicion. Pine will grow where other trees will not, but will also grow on good soil. A few pine are useful to the farmer. It is well known that fires work havoc in Canadian forests where the timber is large and merchantable. But amongst small timber and bush it is a boon as a clearing agent. These clearings made by fire are numer- ! ous and much sought after; land may be made ready for the plow with little labor. A lighted match may be all that is is required to complete the destruction, under careful supervision at the right season. If, however, the soil is covered with a top layer of vegetable mould, it is better to burn the dry timber in heaps, to avoid the loss of this valuable addition to the soil. Those who have seen the heavy timber on the Pacific coast of British Columbia will realize that the clearing I have described is in reality light. The experienced settler does his own clearing in his spare time, and thus adds greatly to the value o f his property at small outlay. The art of clearing such bush is learnt easily and is far from being as arduous as is generally supposed. It consists of two main proceses slashing and stumping. Slashing means the removal of all except the stumps, and, as a rule, requires only the axe. Stumping, which is a formidable process on the Pacific coast, loses its terrors up-country, where the plow may be all that is necessary. If more is required, the farmer may leave his stumps to rot until removal is no trouble, meanwhile sowing crops on the slashed land around them; or, if they are many, he uses the simple stump puller. It is only the rare big trees which require explosives for immediate removal. It is deplorable that from a desire to avoid any life which seems to involve "roughing it," and from ignorance of the increase in value earned by the settler who clears and improves his land for himself, the British immigrant is allowing many of the best opportunities for profitable investment in the agricultural land of British Col-1 iimbia to be taken up by others. | ^^nWtWi^^S<^^^m^^MkW^ffWSI^^e^^^^^^S^^^LWB M ^ ARGENT'S BIG STORE NEW LINE OF Heaters andStOVeS PRICES RIGHT Skates for Ladies and Gentlemen BUY THEM NOW WHILE STOCK IS COMPLETE Ladies', Children's and Men's Rubbers A splendid assortment of BLANKETS on hand to meet all wants.

Adams The following account of the funeral of the late E. B. Adams, for a short time resident here, and brother of J. Mason Adams and J. F. Adams, of Hazelton, is taken from the Drayton, Ont., Advocate: "The remains of the late.Emerson Blake'Adams'arrived in Drayton on Monday by the noon train, accompanied by his brother, Mr. Jas. P. Adams of Hazelton, B. C. Quite a large number of the relatives and friends were at the G. T. R. station to receive the body, and convey it to its last resting place. The funeral took place immediately from the station, interment being made in the family plot in Victoria Cemetery, Revs. A. E. Smith, Drayton, and Jabez Dyke, of Toronto, officiating. Out of respect to the deceased's father, who was a Past Master of the Drayton Masonic lodge, the Brethren marched in advance of the hearse and took part in the burial service. Deceased began to show declining health last fall since which time everything possible was done for him but his final illness lasted only a couple of months. The Institute in Muskoka was recommended and his brothers took him there for treatment which, no doubt, prolonged his life to some extent. He was the youngest son of the late Mr. and Mrs. J. Q. Adams and was a boy held in the highest esteem by his associates and the people of the community in which he lived, and very sincere sympathy is expressed over the fact of a promising life being cut off at the early age of twenty-seven years. The large, handsome oak casket was covered with beautiful floral offerings. In the number were two very fine wreaths; one from the brothers and the other from a Masonic Lodge in the west."
