THE RAILWAY SITUATION In its last issue the Hekald published 1111 interview with G. McL. Brown, of the Canadian Pacific. Railway Company, touching upon the railway situation in Kootenay generally. The IIeuald is quite in accord with the principle of Canada for Canadians. We want to see Kootenay ores smelted in Kootenay and we want to see Kootenay business transacted in Kootenay cities and towns. We have helped to build up Spokane quite sufficiently already to offset anything Spokane enterprise has done to take hold and develop this district. There is- no necessity to make that place the business capital of Koolenay altogether. And the Hkrald believing that the sole aim and object of t.he promoters of the proposed Kettle river road is -to turn the business of the Boundary country iuto Spokane pockets has no wish to see them granted their charter. There is no doubt that this'is the. light in which the scheme is regarded by the Spokane people themselves, and while the Herald has no quarrel with Iheni for reaching out for all the trade territory in sight, it does not wish to see them get it at the expense of the cities of this province. But the C.P.R. has the game ih their own hands. Only so far tliey-have given' it' away by trying to fight Spokane from Vancouver. They can cut Spokane out and build up distributing point for Kootenay at any time they like,to begin, by making a terminal freight rate point right in Kootenay itself, here at Revelstoke for that matter, if tliey want to. As far as the\" present fight with the Corbin road is concerned the C.P.R. has the Herald's sympathies, but a great deal of the necessity for fighting Corbin titall for the trade of the Boundary dislrict has arisen.from the vacillating, halfhearted policy which the C.P.R. itself has up to quite recently adopted to the development of the Kootenay country and trade as a whole. If the C.P.R. chose to set itself to do.so they could build up a wholesale distributing centre right here, ln the middle of West Kootenay, because in ten years from now the mineral district north of the C.P.R. main line will he quite as important as that To tfie soulli-df'itT which would close Spokane out entirely. And it would be to the' them ont. They can build up any point they wish as 11 distributing centre for Kootenay, or lhey can. as at at present, make a present of the Kootenay trade to Spokane. It seems to tlie; Hkiiald a little unreasonable forthe C.P.R. to bo complaining ef the pro-eminence of that city in Kootenay trade or the grasp of the American Smelting Trust for Kootenay ore. when they have only to set themselves seriously to work in 01 dor to destroy both, if they wish it.

We have plenty of stumps to extract anel town property to clear. Why not enlarge our jail or arrange at any rate to get the labor expended in Revelstoke. The chain gang is a thing the modern stiff is dead leary of and besides onr landscape scenery would be much improved. At present all we get is a hard name for sending so many over to Kamloops. ��������� A serious accident may he looked forward to at any time if the ladies, or even gentlemen, insist on rieling hikes upon the high sidewalk leading to the C.P.R. station, and, besides, thc bath which awaits one on either side would be very unpleasant. The early closing movement is a go. All hands have decided to belikeother great cities and adopt the early closing plan. We understand that there are only 147 applications in for the position t>f city police up to this meeting, but of course there is plenty of time yet. The Canoe river natural Rtipply point in Revelstoke. Is Mr. Kellie going to turn a hand to help us win it? Are the merchants .working hand in hand to gain it or is there anything being done except to criticize the other fellows for heing so dead to their own interests.- advantage of the whole disti ic.t to have such a trade centre established, instead of having a dozen little points, none of them amounting to- anything, except as convenient targets for Spokane enterprise. That is the real way to fight Spokane and the only way in whicli it ever will be done to complete satisfaction. With regard to the smelting industries of Kootenay, if the C. P. R. will make it pay mine owners to smelt their ores in Kootenay, they will he smelted in Kootenay nnd the manufacture of lead and copper products may reasonably be expected to follow the smelters. For the market question, when the Dominion government ceases contemplating Ontario, find Quebec as the sun anil moon of,.the pol'.tical firmament and pays some attention to the development of the resources of this province, a market, the coming market of the world, the greatest market in tho worlel lies at our very doors in lhe teeming populations of the Pacific coasts. But on the whole situation the CP. R. has in the picturesque language of the west \" the dead immortal cinch.\" They have gone into the smelting business and have in consequence made other capital shy of smelters in Kootenay as an investment. They are in the steamboat business anel no one else even wants to put a little boat on the river north of their main line because they believe with good reason that as soon as there was anything in it the C.P.R. would step in and squeeze COMMITTEE R.

THE LYCEUM THEATRE CO; _______ The Best Company * Travelling on the* Road Today Tho Calgary Heraltl has the follow- - ingtos-iy of the above'li-iuied com-- puny who are billed to play in Tap-- ping's opera_ honse. here four,nigl 11s__ . commencing Wednesday night, nextr?\" It wus indeed asm-prise to a Calgary audience to see a play presented in the.- way in which Othello was pi educed by the\"Lyceum company at lbe opera house last night. Jlany people thought that an intelligible and enjoyable presentation of Shakespeare was beyond the capabilities of any com- - paiiy which would visit Calgary, but they were much mistake)) and'today thu warmest praise of llie Lyceum company is to be heard on every hand.' Every part showed much care and study, and though of course some nf the characters differed from the1 pre-, conceived notions of some of this audience, there was consistency ihioughoul which made the play most interesting. Miss Marguerite Lorimer won everybody's heart with her simple sweetness and graceful acting as Dcselcmon.a. The title role was played by- Edouard D'Olze. Of course Othello, bus been portrayed by so many great actors, that whosoever assays U,he part in these days has to bear a considerable amount of criticUm. Mr. D'Olze came through the ordeal with'flying colors; he is possessed of a line voice, though in the third act he had a tendency \"to strain it. Othello was u finestudy anel deserves the highest praise, but in the act just mentioned we think Mr. D'Olze could make an improvement in the part if he would save his voice a little. Leland Webb's Tago was rather a new reading to many but it was consilient throughout, and .was a fine; piece of acting. Brabant io should receive a woril of praise for a well played though small part. Edgar Keller was Brahantin anil we are gl.ul to see that he wiil be seen in a bis part tonight when he plays Colonel Preston in Alabama. Miss Rose Cameron was excellent as Emilia. Ingo's wife, acting with much dignity and 1-ioking splendid.- Cassto was well taken -by Douglas Paterson. William Colvin deserves mention for his Roderigo. Tlie d 1 esses weie very handsome nnd the staging beautiful.\" We have no room to give a fuller criticism than this, or we shoulel have a great de������al more to say in praise or the Lyceum company, for it is .by far thc best theatrical company that has visited C.-ils^ry for years, and the thanks of the theatie going public are due to the cricket club for their enterprise in bringing such a good thing to the town. ir*$ ���������] -. r ;_ Revelstoke Herald PnbHshed In Interests o Rerelitoke.

HEAVY LOSERS GUARDING THE POPE The most important jierson in attendance on the pope Is Pio Centra, ������he body servant of the aged pontiff. He? is more than a privileged servant; he is a constant companion, sleeping ln an adjoining chamber with so thin a partition betwixt them that he can hear the pope's breathing. At all times, too, he can keep surveilance by the- aid of a little glass window which Js at the head of the bed, while by means of a telephone he Is ln communication with Prof. Lapponi, the doctor, vho lives out of the Vatican. Besides the eminent physician there are- two assistant doctors who live In the palace and have the care of the health of the 500 souls comprising tlie population of the Vatican. In tho duys of Pius IX there were many, moro who made their abode there. By an arrangement between the uollce and the Vatican authorities a window next the papal apartments Is feint open during the day and closed at Mleht with a lighted lamp behind it The shutting of the window during tho day. or tke putting out of the lamp, means that something unusual han happened and that help la required. When the pope Is 111. this singular si*n would mean that he Is dead. An Italian sentinel Is constantly watching this window.

P.i-\\sing on Lo other subjects, one important item of recent news which will prove a great, factor in the future civilization of the world, is the successful outcome of id) interview held lately between Cecil Rhodes, the empire builder, and the kaiser of Germany. The result has been to bring about a good understanding between tbe Lwo foremost nations nf the world, and the* completion of an Anglo-German agreement for realizing at an early elate' Mr. Rhode's pet scheme of an all Lhrough lino of railway between Cape Colony unci Cairo, on tlie Nile. That, along with the establishment of a nnivi'i-sity at Kliartoun in memory nf General Gordon, and tin* coi.- strnction of an immense: dam on the river Nile, by which thousnnels of acres of lanel will be reclaimed anel made available fnr agricultural purposes by means nf irrigation, will all prove valuable f:������ tors in Ihe civilization of lhe dark continent. A gie.it deal of public curiosity is felt ri-garding the American policy of colonial expansion. It is very questionable how far Uncle Sam has act eel with prudence in meddling with thu Filipinos���������t.he he-iter opinion being that the U. S. will have a white elephant rn thi ir hands. What* with heavy taxation, owing to national indebtedness, and the. yet slumbering antagonism between tb\" north ar.d south and tlie alreaely increasing buielens (naval anel military) on Ihe population of the Republic, fears arc cuteitiiincd of a piobable: dissolution of the union. The system) oT government in vogue in Lhu U.S. has in it the elements of weakness and dissolution Such, al, least, is tlie opinion publicly expressed by our parliamentary authority. Sir John Bonrinot. who is looked to with respect by both political parlies in Canada. Coming nenrer home, wc have several grave question.-! demanding careful solution���������such as senate reform, prohibitory legislation on the liquor traffic, imperial unity and the expansion of trade between Great Britain and the colonips. It is to he hfipeel that the national and imperial- is! ic interests wil! not be sacrificed on the shrine of mere political paitisnn- ship. P. C. S. J. P. Wallace writes for the Baker City Republican some steiling truths concerning mines and their value. He says: \" Even with the best of management it is an exceptionally good prospecL that will pay cost of development. ������������������Prospecting should lm a business to itself and those engaged ill it should be educated and trained for the work. Prospecting companies would do well to equip and scudj into the field only those who have a practical and comprehensive knowledge of geology, rock, vein formation, faults, ores, minerals ar.d assaying. \"Pay ore is ore that -will leave profit after mining, milling. Lranspor- tilion and other expensesaru deducted from the average', saving. Qre is saiel to be'in sight'when it-is blocked out into patches of moderate size and exposed to view on three sides. If one side only of the ore body is shown no ore can be counted, but where Lwo aeljoining sides are exposed to view a triangular body may be* safely calculated as 'in sight.' A single tunnel driven through ore for a considerable distance, but with no openings in the floor or roof, affords only presumptive evidence of (lie continuance of the ore body much above or below the tunnel. \" Mining properties of all kinds are valuable only for the ore they contain. \" If the ore is too low grade to pay or is in quantity too\" small for profit* able working, \"the mine* has no real value; so. also, if the property- is undeveloped and shows no ore 'in sight' it has no real or true value. Surface ore exposures are valuable only for what Lhey promise or for what they are supposed to reveal. The revelations of outcrops are differently interpreted by different persons; there is no infallible: guide to their meaning. Herein is the element eif risk in the pure-base of prospects. It is different wilh ore 'in sight.' A property is always worth the net value of ore blocked out, plus its presumptive of estimated value. The latter is the value of ore which may be found beyond the present, working and which is supposed to be available for mining. The estimated value is to be determined by the; geological conditions of tlie the. mine, as well as of the district in general, and is largely a question of opinion. .��������� '��������� Following are some of the factors to be considered in deciding a mine's value and its ability to pay a profit, viz Purchase price, production, Limber or coal supply, waler for mill and power purposes'] railroad f.-icilitit-s, roads, altitudes, climatic conditions, living expense's, wages, mine and mill managenii-iL, location of properly, chin iiclcr anel value of ore, freight rates, ore markets, smelting facilities and Ihe probable: life of Lhe mine. '���������Frequent i-reisscutling is of the utmost iinportnnce Lo successful mining. Ore bodies eepially as good or betcer than lhe one being wen-keel, are: by this procedure nol infrequently encountered. Grossents have often revealed the existence of nm _. or more parallel veins. Sheet veins and link vein, have thus been* discovered. Immense chambers of aggre gate deposits tlie: existence of wliich had never been suspected, have been opened up by crosscutting. Every mineral-stained scam en- decomposed porl ion e.f a vuin wall should'ne looked upon wilh suspicion, carefully examined and possibly drifted on. '��������� The age of rock tormation in itself considered is not material lo the disposition nf valuable ore deposits. Formerly lhc oldest rocks weie thought to be lhe only bearers of true mineral veins, but the occurrence of many such veins in the younger rocks has taught us that the chief innditioiw giiverningjOre depositions are entirely independent of the age of rocks uud that no formations are excluded from ori'-bpiii-inp possibilities. \" Tiie following an* localities favorable; for the occui rence and discovery of mineial veins*, viz: Wh'-ro the strata have been upheaved, folded and fractured; when- dike and intrusive, wweTOeP' m 0������ m m m m m IM P si \" Jhe Leading Store \" No Bluster, Xo Fuss, Just Business, That's All.\" uwm @f wrm\\ \" ��������� TO K]@US11IH1(3 99 ������i We have just placed in slock a direct importation of ART MUSLINS, PLAIN AND FANCY SCRIMS, WINDOW MUSLINS, ART COTTON, ART SATEENS, CRETONNE, FURNITURE COVERING, LACE CURTAINS, Etc., all al very reasonable prices.
