Encouraging reports of the manner in which the interior of the province in the Hope district is filling with ranchers are brought back to the city by Mr. George D. McKay, provincial timber inspector, who returned this after-noon after- a visit of inspection of the forest fire protection service. \"It is four years since my last visit to the district, and I was amazed at the great alteration,\" said Mr. McKay \"All along the route of the new Pacific Highway the land is occupied with ranches, and the country looks prosperous.\" \"Mr. McKay states that there is deep snow on the Coquihalla trail between Hope and Nicola, so that Fire Warden Campbell\" after going twenty miles had to turn back. Superintendent of Roads Sutherland, who is in charge of the work on the Pacific Highway in the Yale, district, also got stalled on the road. \"The Pacific Highway is going to be a wonderful thing to enable our residents to see the scenic beauties of the province, and will attract thousands of wealthy nntomobilists here, too,\" said Mr. McKay. \"The roadway is being cut through a hundred-mile stretch of the most wonderful scenery imaginable. It is twenty-four feet wide all the way and will start from Chilli- vvack and run clear through to Hope and then on to Silver Creek and the .summit of the Cascades, striking the old Dewdney and Siniilkaineen trails to Nicola and the Boundary country. There are wonderful views of mountain and valley scenery, nearly the whole way. It will be one of the great resorts for autoniobilists who want to see Nature at her grandest.\" Superintendent Sutherland and his staff of 100 men have already got sixteen miles of road in the Yale district completed, and are following up the work as fast as the snow disappears in their- path.' ' Mr. McKay does not anticipate any danger from floods in the Ohilliwack district unless the thaw from the mountains should be delayed, and a heavy drainage comes down towards the middle of June when a high tide is due. The tide from the ocean backs up the waters of the Fraser River as far as Somas, and the danger to be feared is that the high tide should come at a time when the river is swollen with the mountain thaws.��������� Vancouver Province. WHEN WERE THE \"DOWNS?\" Correspondent of Labor Commission Appears to Have Hazy-Ideas of the Nickel Plate's History DOMINION HOUSE PROROGUES TO-DAY . The Gazette has been told by different parties of a report of the sitting of the Labor Commission in Hedley which appeared in tlie coast dailies, the Vernon News and other papers, in which it was stated that \"The Nickel Plate mine had had its ups and downs but was at last on a paying basis,\" or some such words, which conveyed that import. We did not see the report ourselves and consequently can only go by what we have been told on reliable information as to what had been written. Now this appears to have been a trifle worse than the crime of \"damning with .faint pr-ai.se\" for it tends to convey an absolutely different idea from that which happens to be the truth in the case. The Nickel Plate never had any -'ups and downs\" except in the imagination of a few individuals who claimed to know but didn't. Neither is there either sense or truth in saying that it \"is at last on a paying basis\" for there never was an hour's operation of the mine or- the mill since the stamps started dropping in the early part of 1904 that it wasn't paying and paying big. The Opposition Cause Shelving of Parcel Post in Not Agreeing to Forego Further Obstruction SENATE KILLS NAVAL BILL THE MORAL LOSS Canadian Senate for Petty Party Revenge Struck a Treacherous Blow at the Cause of Empire With the date of prorogation set the Postmaster-General had the Parcel Post Bill ready for introduction and was prepared-to bring it forward to be put through if the House was agreeable to receive it. In a measure of that kind it is never expected that all the working details of the system which it is meant to inaugurate will be specified in the bill which has to be enacted to give it the sanction of parliament, but nevertheless when the intentions of the opposition concerning the measure were asked, it was demanded by Leniieux, to whom has been assigned the task of kicker-in- chief against all legislation that may be brought forward on postal matters, that he would require all the minutest details of the working to be gone into during the discussion of the measure before the House. In view of this attitude on the part of the ex-Postmas- ter-General it * became evident that there was no use attempting to introduce the measure at this slage of a session which has already been dragged out through obstruction from No vember until June, and as a result Canada will have to wait for another year for parcel post. Passing the supplementary estimates and the passing of sundrv money votes occupied the closing days of the session.

Horse-shoeing and all Blacksmith Work Promptly attended to. Pipe-fitting done. There is a distinction and a difference. The suffragettes of England are costing that country at the rate of $25,- 000,000 a year by their militant anarchy/and they are losing ground at every point. The British people are turning against them, in many instances most bitterly, and the law- breaking continues unabated. The torch and bomb brigades are kept busy, and they promise to keep it up as long as the fool rich continue to contribute funds to the militants. At the same time the suffragists of the United States are confining their actions to carrying on a strong, persistent educational campaign. They talk reason and act reasonably. They do not kill their cause through their zeal. They do not antagonize the powers that be; they work for and with them. As a result, they have already gained tlie franchise in many of the states, and now the national government is introducing a bill at Washington extending the franchise to the women of every state in the Union. The suffragettes of England have demonstrated by their own actions that they are not fit subjects to be given the franchise. A law breaker, one taking up the torch against the property and safety of the public, is not fit to he entitled to vote. A bomb thrower in petticoats is no less a criminal thin one behind the mask. They are destroyers of property, and as such are entitled to no more consideration than any other law breaker. The Vancouver News-Advertiser in discussing the attitude of the Can.i- diari Senate towards the Naval-Bill says: ; \"When Mr. Borden brought down the measure it was received in Great Britain with keen satisfaction. Liberal ministers like Mr. Asquith and-Mr: Churchill said that the proposition was not only welcome for the material help it gave but as a demonstration to Europe that Britain had in her first line of defence the whole of the overseas dominions. This notice of1 the powers was in the eyes of the British Government an immense moral. ad- advantage. The art committed.by the Senate, sweeps this away at a stroke and the isolation of Great Britain will be the boast of her European competitors. . '*��������� \" ���������' T \"The result of the Senate action is that nothing can be done this year in Canada for .Imperial or Canadian naval defence. Mr. Borden's measure is blocked for the session. There is no other measure before Parliament or the country. Everything waits. Mr. Churchill will probably add three ships to his programme, asking the British taxpayer to pay for -them. We in this country will for the time escape from our obligation and will cheerfully go on accepting protection at the cost of poorer people in the.British Islands.

Ottawa., May 30th���������By a vote of 51 to 27 . the Canadian senate last night declared that the naval bill should be referred to the Canadian people. There was one defection from the Liberal' ranks and one from the Conservatives. Senator Ellis of St. John voted against the Ross amendment I'm- reference to the people, while Senator Montplaisir of Quebec voted with the Liberals. The vote came following speeches by Senator Danduiand, one of the leading Liberals; Sir Mackenzie Bowell, who, despite his 91 years, spoky tor more than an hour and a. half in defence of the bill, and a brief speech by Hon. John Costig.-in. A great crowd was in the galleries to witness the final proceedings. A groat many members of the House of Commons were among them. There was no demonstration of any kind and the vote was taken in absolute silence. PASSES HANK ACT The senate today completed the consideration of the Bank act. A number of amendments proposed by the Department of Finance were adopted. They are all of a technical character- arid do not. effect the principle .contained in tin; bill. An amendment which was adopted provides that banks \"may\" establish stock transfer ���������agencies in each province. As the bill came to the senate this clause declared that banks 'Shall\" establish such agencies. The amendments were approved and the bill 1 end a, third time. The senate adjourned until Monday aftcrnoon. CANADA A GOOD CUSTOMER . J. Hill Tells People of the United States Where Their Best Friends Are Washington, May*'31.���������\"Wall street hasn't a friend west of Buffalo\" James J. Hill, last of the great railway kings of America, remarked the other day. \"Wall street is merely a counter- over- which the people of the conntry are supposed to do their trading. The gentlemen behind the counter- are dependent upon customers, but if those customers decline to come up to the counter then things go hard with Wall street. It can not live very well on itself. \"We fail to give due attention to Canada,\" continued Mr. Hill. Canada is our second largest trade customer. Our business with it is nearly twice as much as our trade with all the countries south of the Rio Grande clear- to Cape Horn. \"Our relations with one single country to the north are of more value to us than of all the countries of Central and South America, including even Cuba. \"Why should there be discriminations of customs houses against such a customer?\" Division II.

Foster at Adelaide Says He Believes in It But We Must Be Careful or It Will Be Worse Than Absolutism '\" Skeleton in Eagle's Nest A party of hunters have captured two royal eagles, with their young, on the Alps near the Ledro Valley. In the eagles' nest were found the bones of a child, as well as the remains of 200 ducks. 40 hares, a chamois, a fox and innumerable birds. Sydney, New South Wales, May 27- The Dominions Trade Coin missions were entertained at- Adelaide today Indie Commonwealth Club. Hon. George E. Foster Canadian Minister of Trade and Commerce, In', addressing the assembly, said that he believed in democracy, but feared that if we were hot careful we would find ourselves in the grasp of tyranny worse than any monarchy of the past. Capital and men were what Australia needed and he wanted to see the senseless battle between capital and labor ended here and elsewhere, and each realise that they were necessary to each other. The British Empire had the possibility of being greater than ever before, and was now the greatest the world had ever seen. All had a hand in its building and should do their best. BRITISH NATURALIZATION GOLF BALL EXPLODES This Innocent Looking Toy Not So In- necent As It Looks Alfred Austin, British poet laureate, died at his home in England, Sunday.

Jack Heflin, 13 year-sold, today lost the sight of his left eye and physicians say he probably will become totally blind. The Sleffanson expedition of exploration to the far north financed by the Canadian government will leave the Pacific coast for the far north in a few days. The expedition is well provisioned and equipped and manned by men who are the best available in their several lines for scientific research. Is a child born in Canada of German parents a British subject, or must he be naturalized before he is a British subject** The above query was recently submitted to the editor of one of Canada's influential papers and elicited the following reply: By the rules of the British law any child, whatever the nationality of its parents, if born within the British Dominions, is. with two exceptions, a- natural born British subject, even though the parents may be merely visiting the British Dominions, or even if the child is born of foreign parents on board a British ship on the high seas. Exception to this rule, however, is made if the child (his father being an alien enemy) is born in a part of the British Dominions which at the time of the child's birth is in hostile occupation; and, secondly, if the father of the child is at the time of the child's birth an ambassador or other- diplomatic agent accredited to the Crown by the sovereign of a foreign state. Lomer Gouin, premier of Quebec, and Hugh John Macdonakl of Winnipeg both received knighthood among the birthday honors granted by King George. Major General Otter also gets. K. O. B.

Following tho matches in the Golf Club between the forces of the President and Vice-president there lias been anew line-up captained by the secretary and the treasurer. So far the wins have, nearly all been with the treasurer's side. Tlie most interest displayed in any of tlie matches in til is series was in the ease of that between Mrs. Botberhani and Miss Jackson who were also opponents in the last series. This time the match went in favor of Mrs. liotherham who won out by one up at the last hole. In the former contest between them Miss Jackson was the winner 3 up and 2 to play. The play of both on this last occasion was decidedly behind their usual play. Some of the games have not yet been played and others have only been partially played off. They will lie given later on when all have finished out. Great changes arc taking place at the Nickel Plate of which we expected to make reference this week but will do so later. A Gazette-representative was up'nii Sunday and was astounded at changes which have taken place since we were there last summer. Tlie property has certainly become a hummer. In the re-arrangeinentof stations at the Methodist Conference recently held in Vancouver Rev. E. A. Mc- Ken/.ie was again appointed to Keremeos and Hedley and Rev. T. A.

AVilson of Vancouver made a business trip to Ooahnont on Thursday last and got back to Hedley on Saturday to spend the week end before returning to Vancouver by way of the Boundary. On Sunday,he made the trip up to the mine and had the opportunity of seeing some of the leading points of attraction which Hedley has to offer- to visitors. Princeton is going to have a big- celebration on Dominion Day and the committees which have the affair in band are planning to make it the biggest event ot the kind ever held in the valley. Horse races,' baseball and lacrosse matches, athletic sports, lock- drilling, bucking contest and other features will furnish amusement for those who attend. There will be two days of the sports on July 1st and 2nd and a grand ball on the evening of the first. The moving pictures on Saturday night in Fraternity Hall brought out a good house and the pictures were very good. There was a clearness and steadiness not often seen in the movies and-the subjects were better conceived on the part of those who got them up, for they were able to convey the thrill without making them morbid. These entertainments are appreciated and will fit in nicely in the list of amusements. Some of the scenic pictures on Saturday's bill of fare weie educative and were well calculated to supply to those who saw them many of the advantage? of travel. A man named SuLler, an elderly Swede who has.made his home with John Jackson for some time and been employed up on Uie ranch, was found dead in-the cabin on Friday .morning last by Charles Nelson who had called to see him. Deceased was. down in Hedley on Tuesday evening and was also seen by John Cos-grove on Wednesday evening. When found it was thought he had been dead about 2-1 hours. There was a wound on his chin and the back of his hand which he may have got in falling in a faint and his shoes and socks wen; off. In the absence of Dr. McEwen constable Spronle communicated by phone with Dr. McCaffery, coroner, at Princeton, and explained t-h-a circumstances as they appeared. These did not seem to require an inquest and order for burial was issued. A note was found in the house afterwards which had evi-lently been written by him but it was un-* decipherable and nothing could be made out of it- except the. name of Air. Jackson's brother (ins.
