C, June 24.���Construction work on the Canadian Northern raihvay branch line from Kamloops to the Okanagan valley will be begun next month and will be rushed toward completion with every resource at the company's command. Building will be begun simultaneously at three points: Vernon, Armstrong and Kamloops. From Vernon construction work will proceed in four directions; from Vernon toward ; Armstrong,' toward Kelowna, toward Okanagan Landing and up the White Valley toyvaid Luinby and Shuswap Falls. Announcement to this effect was made when Watson W.Evans of Toronto, assistant solicitor of the Canadian Northern railway, was in this city between trains to obtain the signature of Hon. Piic.e Ellison, minister of finance, to the $0,110,000 guarantee passed by the provincial legislature during the last session. Immediately after the signiture of Mr." Ellison had been affixed to the guarantee parchments, Mr. Evans telegraphed the fact to Sir William Mackenzie, president of the Canadian Northern railway, Mr. Evans had been apprised of the fact that on Monday of this week Hon. W. T. White, Dominion minister of finance, has signed the Domion Canadian Northern railway guarantee~"for $45,000,000. Mr. Evans left Vernon on Tuesday for Victoria,-.'where one copy of the guarantees will be left in possession of the provincial government, and he planned then to start immediately for Toronto.. On his arrival there the parchments bearing Mr. Ellison'sTsig- nature will be turned over to Sir William Mackenzie, who will immediately depart for London to market the $50,- 000,000 worth of bonds made available for sale by the provincial and Dominion guarantees. The branch line from Kamloops to the Okanagan valley.will be about 148 miles in length. From Kamloops to Vernon the survey is SI miles long, from Vernon to Kelowna 35 milas, from Vernon to Okanagan landing about four miles, from Vernon to Luinby 17 miles and from Lumby to Shuswap Ealls, 10 miles. FOR ELECTRIC POWER DEVELOPMENT The last named 10-mile extension is not included under the recent guarantee, but will be built to reach the company's power site and townsite at the falls, were electric power is to be developed to operate the Lumby and Kelowna lines and probably the; line through to Kamloops. Active development work on the power site will probably not be begun until next spring. It is the intention of the company to rush the work in every way in order to give employment to as many thousands of men as possible and to take advantage of the present low prices on rails, lumber, MINING IN THE DlS !.' ���> VERTISER.

Several gold and platinum Government Vigorously Denies That Hindus Are to Be Allowed to Land From Ship Hon. W. J. Bowser and Hon. W.

The leases are located on the old south channel of Granite Creek and the company', expects rich ] .returns''when'.the bedrock is cleaned up. The operating capitld for development is mostly from' ^Seattle. * The British Columbia Platinum company has also big holdings in the Tulameen platinum belt and has started operations on a large scale. Mr. Lambert, is expected to make a cleanup shortly on his'-rich diggings up Granite Creek. It.is"expected that this season the production of gold and 'platinum 'from the Tuhimeen river and its tributaries will lie greater than the production of the last ten years combined. The mineral wealth of the Similkameen and Tulanieen districts has not been scratched, comparatively speaking, and the development work now going on in the many: rich mining camps in the district has'so far proved that the mineral deposits, both alluvial and metalliferous, "are continuous and licher as depth is gained.

' Ottawa, June 21th���A specific denial is given in government circles to a story sent today to the Liberal press that the cabinet had decided to allow the Hindus on the Komagata Main to land owing to pressure from the British authorities. Sir Robert Borden is-out of the city, but Hon. Martin Burrell and other members of the cabinet, while not desiring in make a statement owinj* to tlie fact that the Premier, is personally handling the question, denied the story in vigorous language. Officials of the department of Immigration were equally emphatic in declaring that every possible effort will be made to prevent the Hindus from landing, and that the government will rigidly enforce the regulations. If the Hindus succeed in getting their case before the courts and so forcing the authorities to allow them to land, it will not be through lack of effort on the part of the government; From the first the government has taken the stand that the immigration regulations must be strictly enforced. These were the instructions given to Mr. Malcolm Reid, the immigration superintendent at the coast, and he has endeavored to carry out these instructions to the letter. The government is fully aware of the seriousness of the situation at the coast, and Premier Borden has been in constant touch with coast officials. Mr. H. H, Stevens, M.P.. has kept the government fully posted as to the feeling on the coast. Many protests are being received from British Columbia against allowing the Hindus to land. Today'came a strong protest froiii the New Westminster Board of Trade. . ._... . ..__. ___. An etfort is being made by Hon. G. H. Perley to negotiate with tlie British authorities for a permanent solution of the question. However, this will nob effect the present situation. The whole story of today is described as a midsnmininor pipe dream. l Hon. W..T.' Bowser and Hon. W.Ross will leave on an extensive tour of the province at the beginning of July with a view to ascertaining the needs and requirements connected with their , departments. The itinerary calls for visits to McBride, Fort Gem go, Fort Fraser, Smitheis and Hazeltnn. Various centres in the Kootenay and Boundary districts will also be visited. ��� At Nelson, Mr. Bowser will give special attention to the problem of the Doukobour settlement. Some misunderstanding has aiisen in connection with the eiifoicement of the legislation of last session, and the minister hopes to make it clear to all concerned thai while, the government has no desire to impose any hardships it cannot allow conditions to exist which amount to an evasion of the laws of the couri- tiy. The ministers will address public meetings at the diffeient points visited, staling the policy of the government on questions bearing upon development of the province.

Retaining Walls Built Great Northern Hotel, Hedley Tlie gold discovery of Thompson and Merrick in the Coquihalla- valley has attracted many prospectors and upwards of thirty claims have been staked. Parties are leaving Hope now with supplies and equipment,. Already the district has drawn the attention of the professional 'knocker. The mining experts of the Vancouver Province says : "Exaggerated reports are being disseminated regarding the gold in Coquihalla valley. It is true that small specimens of rich ore have been obtained, but the gold is pockeby. Vancouver wants no more repetition of Steamboat Mountain." The people of Hope were not to blame for the Steamboat Mountain fraud. Ib was engineered by crooks from Colorado and crooks in Vancouver. Its failure argues nothing at all about the mineral possibilities of the Skagit Vtdley. "The gold, without exception, is associated with porphyry dykes. The great number and wide distribution of these dykes make it a promising field for prospecting," is the official report. ���West Yale Review. ENCOURAGE HOME INDUSTRY Vancouver, June 20th,���The immigration board of inquiry which held a protracted session yesterday concluded late in the afternoon and gave a decision ordering the deportation of Mun- chi Singh. This Hindu is one of the arrivals on the Komagata Mam. He had only $20, when the regulations call for new immigrants possessing $200; ho did not come direct from the land of his birth and he came in defiance of the order prohibiting the entry of artizans or laborers. Formal habeas corpus proceedings were then brought before Justice Murphy. In the absence of any argument oi" other reason he immediately dismissed the appeal, and upheld the decision of the immigration court. Mr. J. E. Bird last evening went to Victoria to enter the case for hearing at the appeal court of British Columbia probably next Monday. The different legal moves perhaps requite a little explanation. The position is that both sides in the Hindu dispute wish to get the opinion of the justices of the Court of Appeal. If the matter had been argued fully before Justice Murphy and in the event of his decision being in favor of the application for habeas corpus that would have been the end of the matter, for the crown has no appeal from the Supreme Court on habeas corpus. In order to make sure that the matter would go to the Appeal Court, counsel on both sides therefore agreed to accept a pro forma dismissal of the application yesterday, which paved the way for the real hearing of the arguments before the Court of Appeal.

It did not lait long, but its intensity gives some idea of public sentiment inthis province, and i-' a suggestion of the oJVect that would be produced if such an order should be given. As the Imperial authorities have repeatedly declared that this is a question with which they will not interfere, and as the Borden ministry has from first to last maintained the policy of exclusion, it might have been assumed that the report of this sudden change of program was untrue. The trade returns of Canada for the fiscal year ending with la������-t March have now been made up and published in detail. It was already known that the total volume of trade was greater than in any previous year. Imports were $flH3,(KK),00'l. a decrease of -12.000. ��������� 00IJ. fix ports were I70,0,)0,(il)0. a gain of $80,000,000. The total trade was $1,112,000,000, a gain of $41,000,000. The excess of imports over exports was $2S2.000.000 in the fi-cal year 1013, and fell to $15J,00!UH)0 in 19M. Exports from the mines increased $1,000,000; fiom the fishesies, $1,300,- 090: of animal products, $S.o'.)0,0u"0; agricultural products, $IS,000,000: manufactures. $13,SOO,000. Theie was a decrease of some $000,000 in the value of fore.-t pi oduce exported. Canada still imports fi om the United States mole than double the value of the gooiN whii-h the United States takes from Canada, and slill buys from Great Britain not much mme than half as much as Britain buys fiom Canada.- Still ib is shown that last year the United States bought much more Canadian produce than the year before. It is possible that since the United states tariff has been reduced =o that tho. average is more nearly the Canadian level, trade between these coimtiies may fend towards equality. CZ?

Dalton, Manager MINES AND PROSPECTS A PRESUMPTUOUS CLAIM The London meeting of Hindus who passed ii resolution complaining that Canada is"deny ing the ordinary rights of citizenship to the King's Indian subjects;" was badly misinformed. Sir Manoheriee Bhownagre, K. C, S. I., ought to know thab bhe ordinary righb. of a British subject, whether Indian or English, does not include the privilege of settling in any British country without the consent of that community. The Hindus themselves are denying to the Canadian people the ordin ary rights of British subjects when they assert that Canadians have no right to determine who shall settle in their country. No other strangers, -British or foreign, have questioned this righb of the Canadian people, and no peorjle shall ever be allowed to do so successfully. ��������� - Do these Hindu residents of London suppose that Canada can be compelled to admit as many millions or tens of millions of "the King's Indian sul> jeets" as choose to come here in bodies of three or four hundred and demand entrance in tho most peremptory fashion ? If the shipload now knocking ab the door has this right, because they are subjects of the king, then a Norwegian shipload of four hundred more Hindus have the same rights. So ten thousand other consignments1 can land with the assurance that this country is as much theirs as it is ours. This doctrine is its own refutation. It claims for the people of Bengal and the Punjab the same rights as the Canadians to live in Canada and to control the country. It denies Canadian self- government. It usurps authority over this country by men who have never seen Canada, and have never had anything to do with the country. Any person can convince himself of the utter absurdity and unconstitutionality of such a claim by carrying it toward a logical conclusion. There are many who invest in mining propositions who do not know the difference between ;t mining prospect and a developed mine. A developed mine is a comniercial proposition, operating upon a commercial basis and returning certain annual premiums. In mines of this class the. element of speculation is past, also the element of chance for large let urns. 1 he investor in tbt! developed or developing mine is in the class thab may hope for large ret urns; J>ut theie must always he associated an element of chance. If, after proper investment of" the funds and careful and competent management, the project fails to develop, theie should he no complaint on the part of the investors, for they would have willingly and gladly accepted any returns no matter how lar������rc.��������� ti."

C. % x giippppflii^ m You Can Thank Advertising NEXT time you step into the corner store, take a look around. Of all the articles on the shelves, how many were on your shopping list five years ago? Make it ten years, and you will find that most of the things you buy to-day���������and could not do without-���������were not even made then. You men and ���������women who buy things, let this sink in. You are better men and women because of advertising. You eat more wholesome food. You wear better clothes. Your home is better furnished. You have cleaner and more sanitary houses. You read better books and magazines. You seek more healthful amusements. Your whole standard of living has been raised ��������� and why? Because the men who make these better things are telling you that you will be more comfortable, happier and healthier if you use these higher grade goods. It is advertising that makes it possible for you to buy "the best" right at your corner store. It is advertising that encourages the inventor to make new comforts and new utilities and enables you to buy them almost immediately after they are perfected. J. J. Hill says this "high living" costs more. True for J. J.���������but it is worth more. And leaving the cost aside, do you want to go back to buying jam out of a pail, oatmeal out of a barrel, raisins out of sticky boxes, or tea exposed in an open chest? ID Do you regret the money paid for a Player Piano? you Would you forego the new style razor? Isn't a Tungsten worth a thousand candles? Would you now be enjoying these if enterprising manufacturers had not told you about them in their advertisements? ill PI fill m m m m m m Isn't life brighter because we have new and higher standards of living? Let us thank advertising for it. ���������Advice regarding your advertising problems is available through any good advertising agency or the Secretary of the Canadian Press Association, Room 503/ Lumsden Building, Toronto.
