The director-- oi' tho Hedley Gold Mining Co. at their head office in New York on March 8th, declared the usual quarterly dividend of 3% and an extra dividend of 2% on the outstanding stock of tlie company payable on Match 31st. The hooks close to-dav. Thursday March 16th at 3 p.m. and will remain closed until April 1st ab 10 a. in. When the extra dividend of 2% was paid at the end of December last it was thought that this extra hon hon was given during the Christinas period as a sort of holiday gift to stockholders, hut its repetition now, three months later, puts a different face on the matter and indicates very clearly that this is the gait they have struck under present operating conditions and the present condition of the mine. Five per cent quarterly is certainly hitting it off to a lively tune thai must appear catchy and attractive to the fortunate stock-holder and the concerns which are paying 20% today are few'and far between. The new plant is now in operation and while a few weeks may yet be required for adjustment in order to get their full duty, there is no doubt that the effects in the way of securing a material saving in extraction are already apparent and accounts for the ineerased dividend. When the water- supply increases sufficiently to enable them to dispense with the steam auxiliary plant the profits will be still greater. fALfl'GE' Livery, Feed k Sale tables HKDI.EY 15. C.

TORONTO'S BIG KICK Mass Meeting 5000 Strong Condemn Reciprocity���������Most of Speakers Prominent Liberals' DR. J. L. MASTERS DENTIST Will be at Home office in Oroville. 1st to :i4th of each month. Office on North Main .Street. NOTICE Toronto, March 9th���������-Five thousand people occupied Ma.ssey Hall this evening at the meeting to protest against reciprocity, and a great many more were turned away. Sir William Mortimer Clark, formerly lieutenant govei- nor of Ontario, occupied the chair. The meeting was announced as a nonpartisan gathering intended to inaugurate a campaign to protest against the a greeiiient. With the exception of T G. Blackstock, the speakers were all Liberals. The resolution, presented by Z. A, Lash, K.C.. and seconded by W. T. White, managing director of Lhe National Trust company, was passed withoutu question. After setting forth the same arguments against Reciprocity contained in the protest of the ���������'aforementioned 18 Liberals" the resolution declared that before the agreement went into effect it should be passed upon by tin* people and that to prevent the continuance of the disturbance of trade already caused by the action of the government, the election should be held without delay. The other speakers were Arthur Hawkes and W. K. George. (Nelson .Vows) Liberal papers 011 the prairie tell their readers that the coming in force of the reciprocity agreement will be a great thing because it will lower the price of fruit. In the fruitgrowing districts they say that the fruit grower will get more for-his fruit than he does- now. In the cities the working man is told that it will reduce the cost of living by reducing the price of farm products. In rural districts the .-farmer is told that it means higher prices for the same products. The prairie wheat grower is told that the price he can get in Minneapolis is better than the price he can get by exporting grain to Europe. Figures are published showing how much more per* acre the land will be ���������worth when all the wheat goes to Minneapolis and brings in six cents more per bushel, In Vancouver and Fort William and in other railway towns, they say that the wheat and other traffic will continue to go east and west as at present and that these towns and railways will not be injured. Everyone who ships into the United States will be enriched by taking off iii' the duty, because it is the producer who pays the duty. Everyone who buys from the United States will get goods cheaper because it is the 'consumer who pays the duty. Good results will come from taking the duty off fruit, from leaving it on implements, from keeping lumber on the tree list ;md from keeping coal off, from having reciprocity in wheat and from not having it in flour. Truly it must be a magnificent agreement that can produce all these contradictory results at one and the same time; .and the statesmen who can invent legislation that will perform all these stunts simultaneously are, indeed wonderful statesmen. Also the good people who in each part of the AFTER THE HEN TOO Sir Wilfrid Has a Crow to Pick With Her ss Well as With the Fruit Grower. , ' News-Advertiser Those who keep hens and sell eggs in this province have a personal interest in the reciprocity treaty.

According to the trade tables .Canada imported' last year. 893,324 dozen eggs, of which 757,316 came from the United States. Canada exported only 160,650 dozen,, of which 35,732 went to the United' States.

FATAL FIRE AT PRINCETON News reached Hedley on Monday morning of the burning of the Princeton hotel owned by James Wallace and the death of one occupant. The lire took place at -1 a. 111. [Sunday morning and the origin is unknown. The main Ivavb of the hotel being a log building it was easier to keep the fire from spreading than iu the case of a frame structure. The.'most regrettable feature, of the fire was the fatality which-attended it. The victim was an Austrian named Joe Galitzky, who had been working at the Nickel Plate before he went to' Princeton a couple of weeks ago. The man had been intoxicated to the degree ot helplessness the night before and in the excitement of the lire- he was forgotten. There was said to be $1(100 insurance on the premises and the owner had been .offered .$12000 for the property a while before.

Hrown has derided on Friday, April 28th as the date of her concert in Hedley when our townspeople may look for a musical treat. It is Airs. Brown's intention to give the Hedley Hospital the benefit of proceeds over and above expenses which is very generous indeed on her part and more than anyone was expert-nig. Her system of vocal instruction aims at thoroughness and pupils are jjnot given tasks they have not been prepared for by suitable instruction. For this reason it is not improbable that only those who have had an opportunity of becoming fairly advanced in their studies may be. asked to sing. In any case the public may look forward to a program of special merit. Among the fuel producers of the district that Avill henceforth cater to the warming up of, British Columbians is the Osoyoos Coal Co. on the Similkameen about live miles above Princeton. By the by, the name is the most objectionable feature about the whole concern for like tin- appending of the name Ashnola to the same locality a few years ago, the use of the name "Osoyoos" for the coal property is another geographical misfit that is calculated to do mischief by needlessly confusing. Fortunately, however, the coal is of a. character that will carry its own recommendation and W. C, McLean who has had charge of the opening up of the property is in receipt of numerous bouquets (metaphorically speaking) from those who have used if. About 25-car-loads were taken out during the past winter and and shipped to vaiious parts of the interior by way of introducing it and a carload brought into Medley by A. Winkler is said to haye given good satisfaction to those who obtained some of it. Whether it is used to cook the. "pan-itch" or warm up the toddy Abu; ran fully recommend it to his friends. I THE COLONEL HITS BACK To my Old Friend Megraw Editor of the Hedley Gazette Decir Sir: ' You do your con tern porary,the Editor of the Summerland Review, a great injustice in your issue of March 2nd in assuming that I (Colonel Cart- wright) was responsible for his* sensible and patriotic stand in favor of reciprocity. T have no doubt that he consulted some of the Conservative and successful fruit growers of this .place before expressing himself in the able way ne did. Taking his cue, from them,-���������do you know that our good pieces of fruit land are bringing from $1,000 to $1,400 per acre for orchards not yet in full bearing? Last year one conservative fruit grower netted $-1,000from twelve acres, while two others realized half that amount each from about the Siiine area. They sold privately, shipping only fully ripened fruit and getting cash in advance. It is true that our poor fruit may need protection, but it would need treble the present protection to help it. Next year we won't have any poor fruit from Summerland, we need not. We want Chicago and Ney Yorw markets for our high grade apples. Moreover, we desire both English and American buyers to take in our district after taking in Oregon and Washington. I do not remember exactly what all my 1S91 views referred-- to in your March 2nd editorial were, nor does it matter. At present I favor reciprocity, not so much for it's immediate good effects, but more particularly because it will open the eyes of the farmers on both sides of the line, and show how little protection ran ever help them. This will undoubtedly start high protection on the down grade. You know the rest, or my efforts towards redeeming you from your ways in 1891 have indeed proved futile. I am sorry that you should have referred to my father. Me is not responsible for me although he- started me in the right direction. Henry George has to answer for my opinions on trade, transportation and real estate matters. You will agree with me that the world has moved in ourdirection since the year referred to, and is still moving with accelerated speed. Had you not better get into our band wagon and move along to the tune of "Progress" rather than be left behind in the slough to die, or do you not believe in death-bed repentance! Yours sincerely K. C.VIiTWKlOIlT ANOTHER METAPHOR WANTED In view of the fact that so eminent an authority on fruit pests as Mr. Maxwell Smith has likened Bruce of Saturday Sunset to "a festering pimple on the posterior of humanity" wouldn't if be well for Bruce's two idolatrous admirers, the editors of the Chilliwack New Era and the Nicola Valley News, to offer a modest prize to other naturalists for suggestions for a similarly suitable metaphor by which to establish their identities ?

A FRIENDLY TILT In iinother column will be found a letter from our old and highly esteemed friend, Colonel Cartwright of Suni- mcrland, in which he shows that we were in error in laying upon him any responsibility for the editorial apostasy of the Summerland Review on the subject of Reciprocity. Also before going any further we wish to congratulate Colonel Cart- wright on having advanced the first real argument which we have yet seen in favor- of Reciprocity, for in doing so he has accomplished more than his chief Sir 'Wilfrid Laurier whose defence of the proposal was unworthy the man aud unworthy the position he holds. Colonel Cartwright's argument, however, is substantial and supported by an instance which there is no gainsaying, for when we tells us that "one Conservative fruit grower netted $1,000 from twelve, acres" he deals with accomplished tacts instead of visionary hopes, and when the Summer-land Review referred to the high class market across the line which awaited our better class of fruit we wen.- disposed to regard it sis more or less of a pipe dream. Of course the case may be exceptional and we do not know what all may be implied in the admission "sold privately, shipping only ripened fruit and getting cash in advance"' but nevertheless we believe the Colonel-thinks if can be repeated by those who ran produce the quality or he would not use the example. The occasional vigorous prod which he gives us we rather enjoy, for it brings back recollections of .lis old time aptitude to turn an argument; be.-iiles it assures us that the intervening years have not had too mellowing .-in effect and there is still plenty of the old lighting sphit left. But there is one thing we must not let him get off with. Like many other Liberals he is very fond of pointing at the progiess made by Camilla, during the past decade or two and pat- the trade<-_uc.������*tioii temporarily shelved 2.50 | they acc-'trd tlie National policy'and its high protection and have kept it iu opei.-ition ever since. It is true then- was a revision of the tariff in I.S97 but no. appreciable lowering or re-adju^t- ment of the duty further than tlie Conservatives had themselves already begun to make as announced by Fos-. ter in that noted speech in which h ��������� quoted fiom Tennyson; " riinfc man'.-: the best Conservative Who lops the mouldor'd brunch away". ft is true Canada has prospered under L:i.urier's regime, but prospered mainly by virtue of tlie Conservative trade policy, and that is the policy tin- Liberals now propose to destroy on the instalment plan with the present reciprocity prop- sal as the first instal- ni -nt, Tinies and scenes have indeed changed since Colonel'Cartwright'. and the editor discussed some of these questions in Stanley ban ark's in the long- ago that seems only such- a short while. As politics were tabooed in the ante-room other opportunities had to be sought. A full captain then in the permanent force and a life-long student he has since risen to nearly'the top of the military ladder, and it was with mingled pleasure and regret that we learned two years ago he had taken up his'a bode in British Columbia after failing health had compelled him to resign his position on the staff at Ottawa. And now it seems to us that we could rather enjoy resuming some of the. old discussions, for when we judge, the present and the future iu the lighi of the pa#t the old time Liberal who will attempt to justify the course of his party is covered with confusion at nearly every turn of the road. All we need to do is to mark the effects of bhe trade and transportation policies which, that wise old statesman, Sir John Macdonald, put through in the face of the most determined opposition of the Liberals.

Mrs. McKinnon has learned from a nswepa.per published in her home town in Nova Scotia that her son Dan who went back there three years ago is ill with the smallpox. In all probability the quarantine established to prevent its spread is responsible for cutting off direct communication 'by - mail and will account for her failing ���������to learn of it direct by letter. Geo. Young left on Monday's train for Central Africa where he said he had obtained employment to go prospecting for a concern that was sending him out. The old adage that "distant lields are always green" is about the only explanation which can be offered to account for anyone leaving British Columbia to find another mineral field in which to prospect. Already the interest that appears to he taken in golf here augurs well for a successful Minimer's play. Part of the course will not he in shape for a week or more hut for the past week a considerable part of the flat is hare with the frost out of the ground and the turf dry. Advantage has thus been taken of it for practice. Play hist fall was kept up until within a week of Christmas and now that it has been resumed before the middle of March no devotee of the game can complain at the shortness of the season. Last year's injury to the railway bridges taught the railway company that the Similkameen river is a-stream not to be trifled with and this spring they,-ire taking time by the forelock.

While, in Keremeos recently Mr. Flack, instructor in the apple packing school, paid a visit to the ranch of Win. Mnnery in the lower valley for the purpose of examining his orchard and apples, which are grown on bottom land. It is generally considered that bottom land here is unsiiited for .fruit growing but the experience of the older ranchers, most of whose orchards are on the bottom, disproves this. Mr. Flack stated that the Yellow Newton grown by Mr. Manery were the best he had seen anywhere in the province and the Yellow Newton is the standard of perfection in apples. He advises tire ranchers here to plant the higher grade of apples, this being one of the very few districts in the province in which they thrive. ���������SUBSCRIBE FOR THE GAZETTE NOTICE Certificate of Improvements.
