Mr, Martin has succeeded in securing another member for his fearfully and wondirfullv constructel Cabinet. The latest addition is a gentleman who bears the somewhat euphonious title of George Washington Beebe, but nothing is known of his color or previous condition (servitude. On these points Mr, Martin also pro- .sscs dense ignorance, and to a reporter remarked that all he knew about George Washington B. was that, like Mr..Smith Curtis, he was deaf. .To many ���it may seem lhat two positions to deaf men in a Cabinet is an unjust discrimination against the hall, dumb, blind and maimed, of which there are large numbers in this Province, Perhaps, Mr. Martin assumes to represent these elements himself. ��� >! k The announcement made by Mr. Cotton, that there will be a follower of his nominated in every constituency in the Province will add interest to the iorthcoiuing contest. On the island, it is generally conceded; Mr. Turner will carry eleven seats, and the Mainland will undoubtedly go overwhelmingly Conservative, and there will be little left for Mr. Cotton,.independents and Liberals. It is quite likely that every constituency on the Mainland'will be contested by a straight Conservative, and if the people vote as they talk the result will be a preponderance of Conservatives from the Mainland in the next House. Nodoubt'a few seats will be carried by Liberals and independents; on the Mainland and island. The labor men will also test their strength in many constituencies, and claim to be able to elect at least eight straight representa tives. They have an advantage over several of the other parties, inasmuch as they have a perfect organization and can approximate their exact voting strength. It is not considered possible that one straight Martinite will be elected, except the Liberals endorse the Hon. Joseph as their leader. Generally speaking, the Liberals are pursuing their time-honored tactics of opposing party lines/and at the same time supporting candidates who will fall in on the Liberal side, in the event of the House dividing on party lines. It will thus be seen that it is almost certain the next Government will be a combination of different elements. It seems scarcely possible that any one of the dozen or more parties now in the field will elect a number sufficient to form a Government. . However, that cuts no figure. The Lieutenant-Governor will probably see to it that the faction with the least strength will be entrusted with the formation of a 11 government. >> Mit. D G. Macdonnell, the Vancouver barrister, has been in Ottawa recently, where he was interviewed by a correspondent of the Torouto Telegram, from which we take the following extract: "Yes, I have known Hon. Joseph Martin intimately ever since he came to our Province," said Mr. Macdonnell. "I have no hesitation in pronouncing him one of the best and truest Liberals that Canada has yet produced." 14 Will he be able to carry the Province in the coming elections ?" I asked. "I certainly.ttiink so," replied Mr. Macdonnell, emphatically. "We have no man to be compared to him in force and ability, and I know of no vman we could select to successfully fight the beasts at Ephesus." 44Will the Liberals take up his cause ?M 4'Yes ; I am confident that practically all of them will. Unless we do our Province is gone. Everything tint could be given away to railway and other corporations has been given, and for my part I do not see what is to become of the Province unless Mr. Martin succeeds and puts u check to the wholesale sacrifice of the interests of the Province. There will be /nothing left worth giving away unless Martin triumphs/* Mr. ���McDonnell remarked with satisfaction the growing tendency of British Columbia Liberals to identify themselves with Martin's cause. As Mr. Macdonnell has not hitherto posed as a humorist, his interview must be taken seriously. It would therefore be interesting to learn if he speaks for a majority of the Liberals of British Columbia. Perhaps the forthcoming Liberal Convention may throw some light on this subject. Mr. Duncan Ross, of the Greenwood Times, is certainly not one of those r> , ' /^"C 31' h . .>, ,<.

The volume will be treasured by all wlio rea<Ht-as a memorial of a man who had won, in a brief career, a well-deserved eminence among his comrades of the press. His friend, Mr. Vernon Blackburn, has added a "Last Chapter," telling us something about Mr. Steevens himself. Unlike many who have gathered fame at an early age, he was unspoilt by his success. He had a singularly winning character. One cannot pay a better tribute to his memory than to say, as can be said with truth, than in his few years of strenuous, active life, he had made a host of friends and not one enemy. In this, his last work, as in his other writ? mg, the two most prominent features are the wonderful vividness of the descriptions and the simple directness of the narrative. His classical training at Oxford left him the pregnant phrase and forceful epigram ever at hand, while his experience as a journalist had taught him the folly of long and^t^i^^d^i^ scription. He had, top, a great faculty f||tM��^^t���^n^S| into the spirit of the thing. "Capetown!^ smith" is on sale at the Canada Drug. &;|;B^||Gp4||| store, iu this, city. ���. /l/fiifllllltl/; i 'J ^ t 1.

Mr. Lynch as interlocutor was particularly acceptable! Altogether the performance may be said to have been a pleasing success. One month ago the Liberals of this Province were execrating Joseph Martin in the most approved and emphatic manner; last night in Victoria this same Joseph Martin announced himself the leader of the Literal party in'.British Columbia. It does not necessarily follow that certain profane Liberals have changed their opinion of their "leader," but the circumstance supplies a most striking example of what can be accomplished in the Province of British Columbia by assurance, abnormally developed gall and impudence. Just contemplate for a moment the enthralling spectacle of such old Liberal war-horses as Senator Templeraau, Gordon Hunter, Dr. Milne, E. V. Bod well. L. P. Duff.E. P. Davis/George Powell! Dr. Arthur, John A. Gibson and Duncan Ross, kneeling low at the altar of Joseph Martin, and pledging undying devotion to a leader, who has not as much as asked them by their leave! Docs the vision transport you ? Nothing like it has ever been presented in any other Province in the Dominion. It cannot be denied that the action of Mr. Martin will go a long way in the direction of precipitating a party fight Mr. Martin has Med his Cabinet with Liberals and has openly declared that he will run the ���election on party lines. He is "leader** and as such must te regarded until deposed by a convention of representative Literals. In the meantime, it may be asked, what are the Conservatives going to do about it ? A Montreal dispatch announces that James Baxter, ��� banker, and Ferdinand Lemieux, accountant of the defunct Banque Ville Marie, accused of conspiring to 'defraud u\q bank, were found guilty in the Court of Queen's Bench, Sunday morning. The jury added a strong recommendation on account of Baxter's age. He is about 70. Baxter presented checks at the bank, in which he had no funds to meet them. Thev were initialed by Lemieux, the accountant, and cashed by Herbert, the paying teller, who held the checks as cash. And thus do the sins of the wicked find them out. In the Canadian capital an the 17th of March everybody was Irish���Englishmen. Scotchmen, French- .men, says theToron.o Saturday Ni'iht. You could not tell one from the Other that day, for they all wore shamrocks and all were jubilant. It might have been St. Andrew's, St. George's, St. Jean Baptiste and St, Patrick's day rolled into on*. Perhaps the least jubilant of any were some Irishmen who did not approve of this general use of their particular emblem, any more than they understood the sudden wave of popularity which was flowing over them. "You are all Irish to-day,M said one of Erin's most brilliant sons, at "a banquet in honor of the occasion, where Frenchmen and Scotchmen had been 'trying to im press upon the company the fact of an Irish great- grandmother, or some distant ancestor���"you are all Irish to-day, and we are glad to see it; And when this popular clamor is over we will still remain 'the Irish."' > The Provincial elections will not be held until June, and this means another season lost to the Kootenays. f.G. t Name O'Kitch.

So that everything now points to a conjunction of forces for the defeat of Martin,.and the censure of the stand taken by the Lieutenau-Gover- nor. Hut the the end k not yet. Martin is without doubt growing iu popularity, the labor element following him compactly, and the indications are that it will resolve itself into a question of labor against AMpital. This would be fatal to the progress of our piovinec. Fu a new country especially th- union of capita! and labor is absolutely essential, and the men or partv striving to generate such a question of strife sh-Mld be summarily dealt with by the electors. It remains to Ik* seen what the grand finale will be. Board for two terras, being elected each time at the head of the poll, but on seeking re-election for a third term he was defeated by a large majority. Public opinion changed by reason of the stand taken by Mr. McMillan in regard to certain public works. He antagonized both the labor unions and the contractors, so that at the present time this gentleman has little or, no chance of election. ��� Dr. Lewis Hall occupies about the same position as J. G. Brown, with the exception that be is not as popular and has not devoted his time aud attention particularly to any political party. The time he will spend hi the Legislature attending to public business Avill not at all interfere with the practice of his profession. 'IM FROM THE CAPITAL tH|KTint Cormi&wmUcNw of Tiik K��v>so>nsr.> \HCTORfA, MARCH 26.--There has been very liuie change in the political situation during the week, with the exception that Premier Martin has secured* another Cabinet Minister and has induced fuur Lilxsrals to come out for slaughter in this city under bis leadership. These aspirants for political honors are J. G. Brown, John McMillan, Dr. Lewis Hall aud W. .L Hanna. Of these gentlemen "nothing can be said against them, either personally or socially, but when they enter the political arena they are subject to criticism. The fourth and last member of Mr: Martin's ticket isW. J. Hanna, an undertaker, or contractor to Her Majesty, as he described himself on the nomination paper at the last election for school trustees. His fate at that election should have been a warning to him to keep out of politics. Mr. Hanna is a good undertaker, and would be respected by all if he would at- tendstrictly to his undertaking business and not endeavor to foist himself on an already sorely afflicted public. Where Mr. Hanna expects to secure any support it is hard to surmise, unless he has canvassed the voters of Ross Bay cemetery and found they will endorse him in a body. The public recognize that the handling of live political issues is directly opposed to the business that this gentleman has successfully established, aud therefore are of opinion that he should remain at home instead at" directing affairs of state. j. G. ilrowu isanun who is well liked and respected by nearly all who have had the pleasure of meeting him. He is a capital ieilow, and can sing as ������good a Scotch song as any man on the coast. He has always been a staunch Liberal, and has devoted his time to that cause to the disadvantage of his own business. It will be difficult for the Liberals to do otherwise than give Mr. Brown at least some support m his campaign. He will secure the temperance vrote; and a portion of the church vote will also go his way. On the other hand, he will be opposed by the Conservatives, the anti-Martin Liberals, the business Men's and the Incensed Victual lets' Associations, jv G., as he is commonly known, will poll the largest vote of the Martin ticket, but the forces opposed to him are too overwhelming.-and" he will -hi snowed under when the ballots are counted. John McMillan is another staunch Liberal and is 1 he only platform speaker on the ticket There has been a split between John and,some of the local Liberals, the result of; which will be to his disadvantage.,. Mr. McMillan occupied a seat on.the Aldermanic Premier Martin, with his usual perspecuity, has secured the services of Mr. Hanna, whose capacity for conducting successfully a funeral will stand him in god stead when the campaign is over. Premier Martin, by securing four Liberals to contest Victoria City, is endeavoring to force the Liberal party to endorse him as leader. What the outcome will be is looked forward to with interest. >e While the Liberals and Conservatives throughout the Province are in a state of inactivity, Joseph Martin is organizing his party and getting his candidates in the field, although it is generally thought that there will not bean election, until June; still there is nocertainty about the date. The time that is most ' ** ' A. ' ' ��� ��� , ' . ' .. '������'":.' ''���������'���. advantageous to Hon. Joseph is the timf that elections will be held, and from appearances Mr. Martin, by opening the campaign now, will within a very short time have the House dissolved and the writs issued for a new election, which will tahe place at as early a date as possible. It would therefore be adr visable for the Conservative party to at once select their candidates tor the different constituencies and proceed to work in a business-like manner. ,y y^A A��� "1 A? -��� \ r W :. - 0 ,'* ' 'A J 'I'' y, .. -, ��� V' *���' 1 * .. j' ��� ���*.'; * (- v/g .I. * , ,./A'J - .��� "tf : ���- n .'#*��� 1 '.',9 .1 > ! <t'" Wm 1111 AiP'o *- ����� ��� -1 r ���:�� - '.���;:��� I ::i':Slr.iMi;iti iifipA l^Pfe''' Ik i I Tfy^iy ���&;' :>y ���afv'-ft.-S?'.. #*fey IKfti;: Ipfefv Ifpfc Ayf yy II#;: &##��� %-M y!;- liljAiy'- bldter <>f tlie Obeeii .���''������;..-��� ,; -'asT > ' '��� ���,..".������ . ...'.."'.��� tr*mr ' wiriiiii..iiftiii��inwini-< THE shop was littered with scraps of lea! her, Btiu<Aes of skeins "of waxed thread swayed with e^ery breexe against - the wall, and above tbemy tri its tarnished ^bbard^bunf.an"^ "That l^ explained to a btiance ctistomer.^ through the Crimea, and the blade shows some scars from'"the"-Indiair" mutinies." w^ald:-.^ Values ifyinghty ";'*yy.Oh;"'noA^ -thcA-klini" "an" officer; itft^^ ";Bu t be"is. bJittd-^ :;On.:;;,":A'bywayv";it- ;"wouldb*t"admtt;;that :'edA"i^^^ "Watt:i^ '":";The^ i4AWlHte*hatre<f: mati-;s Ayith;-a; listeuingd^ok ;on" bte;-"'fe^ ' ::warcL"^'--:'."'A>.^ LOS ANGELES The Gr^4tt Mf tilftir JosirmU 'ot: th^:Oren.t Sdutiiw^it,::' a---...-. : "yp��yiyj~T^f WH0tiE5ALE..:.:A{a)^RErrAlli 16 p��ges, with Heavy Cover Every, Wcetc ieiiSiti^B��i;br ;Paeia^ c^mty.S',' MEAD,, OFFICE:":'.': 'Kttfooii^B.

One of the novelties iu material for separate waists is a plaid silk, either pale blue or pink and white divided in diamond squares with narrow Valenciennes lace itisertiprt. No more chatelaines. Put them away in your jewel cases and resurrect them when you are married and the mother of a marriageable daughter, says the Xew York IhtnUl. Then she will take as much pleasure in bringing all your chatelaine charms out, burnishing them up and dis* laying them to her friends as the very latest, as you did before her. Tu support of this assertion, attention is drawn to the new chains which are to be just the smartest thing this season. They are all copies of the long old-fashioned chains worn by our mothers when they were 14iris It is n season of chains. Chains Joni;. chains ^itort, chains-medium, but chains you mast have, if you would be in the swim. The very newest fad in these chains is one of medium length, which is hung around the neck and reaches to the bust, or just where the fancy yokes end. These chains have very artistic pennants attached to them. Some of these pendants are Egyptain in the red, blue and old gold coloring, while others are of the new "vert or" and gun metal effects. By the way, this new coloring for gold chains, greenish'in hua, just a little tarnished and brassy looking, is'at the present moment all the rage in Paris. It is creating a perfect furore, and everybody who pretends to be anybody is wearing jewelry in this "vert or" colloring. Then, another fad, which will be very popular and which is intensely artistic in its conception, is that of wearing old coins attached to West Kootenay Butcher C 0 i r Wholtttitli* »wl ItetttU 1 » i . if Camps supplied on shortest! notice and lowest prices. j Mailorders receive careful j attention. tl S Nothing but fresh and; wholesome meats and supplies j kept in stock. \ E.
