Two New Wagon Roads to Two Important Groups of Mines to be 'Biiiit. From the success attending the visit ��������� of our delegates to Victoria, 'the eon- ten tions ox The,Review are fully vindicated, though there were ..wise-acres. in town,/and "sortie of'them in the "' council, who ridicuied the idea at the ���������time. :'.'" ''.,; . ;','������������������ .,'.���������' The public should know that no gov-' eminent, be they ever, so careful, "can ���������, in a country, with the varied 'revenue* and resources of this, know' the com-. ... parative revenues and -tlie.necessities of every district/ and 'clerks are not always careful to call their attention to them. Doubtless Mr. Hume has .done considerable in this way, but as his district is so large it lias conflict-' ' ing interests, he would naturally look first after^t;fo wants of his own town, INclson. A full consideration of these circumstances and the fact that wo arc on the eve of a general election, when the government is looking after support, are all that are necessary to prove that a. delegation at this juncture was well-timed, and the men ."elected wero among the best to be had from their standing, ability and experience. The delegates waited on the Cabinet by arrangement, of course, and were sensible enough not co tie too greedy or too rash in their demands--asking onlv for what they had every reason to expect assistance. As a result thoy wore uompliraenced bv the government on the reasonableness and moderation of their requests. Maps were freely UBed, statistics brought into question���������all proving conclusively that tho demands were reasonable, equitable, and in no respect founded on selfishness, calculated merely to develop the resources of the district, and make it oven a still greater revenue producing section of the country. In brief, , then, the promises are these:���������* 1. That the government will pay off thc most of tlie floating debt of the school, in the neighborhood of ooOO; take over the school property from .Air. Harris and pay for it, and give a salary to ;i. second teacher, if it can be shown we have 50 children of school age who will attend school. To this end a census should bo taken at once. 'I. Thoy will donate 5200 to tho. fire , system, following a precedent iir a grant to, the Victoria brigade some time ago. 8. They will give the $800 voted for a lock-up some time ago. This the council should supplement and erect a comfortable Lock-up and City Hall. 4. They will promptly make a refund of all 'iconse.1-��������� arid other city revenues to which the place is entitled. This, however, is no concession. 5. They will allow drainage into the creek if the.Provincial Board of Health advances, no valid proof this would be injurious to the health of people in other localities. ���������������������������:', ���������'���������' (3. They will assist the construction of a wagon road to the Noble Five mountain, via Reco trail, to the extent of $1,50,0. a mile for 4������ miles,- or give $6,750.' They;will pay half the.cqst of a wagon road up-lo the Idaho basin, giving facilities to the Queen Bess apd other m;nes, provided the mine owners supplement the grant, -which they doubtless will do. They promise such a redistribution as will fully satisfy the Slocan. All told the money consideration cannot fall far short of if 15,000, which will be a considerable help to the place and surroundings at the present time. ' Later on we will have more to say on the subject, but in the meantime the council ought to get from the delegates' a .'statement of their expenditures on the trip, and at once vote whatever money the S200 already voted doea not cover. It is enough for any mm working in the'interest of tho public in a matter of this kind to give his time, and the week was probably worth $100 or more to some of the delegates, and not to give his money also. There were other matters talked over by the deleg ites such as the hold- in"*- of courts here, other grants, publi c offices, etc, that .will yet develop into something, but until they are in more definite sfiape, we withold comment. The delegates have done their duty well, and are entitled topublic thanks for it, and the gov rnment to recognition for their careful consideration of the representations, and prompt atten- tion. Dickllardisty, Edmonton, confirm the report that: "CayuseJ*L. Graham has come across the mountains lrom the waters of the Pelly river, and had struck pay dirt at S10 to $20 per 'day. Graham crossed the Upper Laird west of the mountains in November, and reached Fort St.John February lst,witb horses and sleds. He found plenty of feed by the way. Gify council. Resources of West Kootenay. The London Empire has Great Confidence ' , "'. in Our Resources. ���������' ��������� . The London Empire, which; has recently been devoting considerable attention to West Kootenay, in its issue of February 12th says :'.. ��������� "The bponi in the Klondyke regions has stimulated activity in'all oi.her parts of Canada, so that wo,an constantly receiving details about fresh discoveries of gold, silver and other minerals in various parts Of the Doini'iion. West Kootenay promises to develop into one of "the, richest regions, of the country. Competent authorities believe that, this district will, before the expiration of tho present contuary, reach an output of $25,000,000 or'930,000,000 per annum. The prospects for the undeveloped portions of the districts, although hampered for lack of proper communication and capital, arc perhaps more promising, if possible, than the sections that have been favored by the investment ol capital ai.d railway service. The Dominion government revenue from the We-l rO,ot,<;nay dih- trict for the past two yuars has been nearly, if not quite, $1,000 per day. The provincial government's revenue from W^'st Kootenay district for mining receipts, timber dues, ore revenues and other resources is something enormous and cannot have fallen short of ������1,000 per day during 1897. The Provincial government probably derived a revenue of --175,000 to i-200,000 from the norlh riding in 1897, yet thc amount thoy spono on roads ami trails during that time was less th-m .-?25'000. Nevertheless, tho north riding as well as the south has forged ahead, even under such adverse circumstances. "A prominent mining ��������� xpert, recently discussing tho situation, says: 'Kootenay people should throw nothing in the way ol'.thc development of low grade mines. I f.ok forward to the day, and confidently believe that, it is not far distant, whon 10,000 men well be employed underground in that" strip of territory lying between Nelson and thc boundary. It is a condition that can and will be accomplished and will soon be realized by the people working to that end. For general prosperity the people of Kootenay should pin their faith to low grade properties." The city council met Wednesday evening in council chambers. All present biit Aids. Broddy and Cunning.

The Stamp Mill and Sawmill Will Soon Be on. the Ground. ���������'" Gold On the Pelly River, Letters^to Rev. Father Husson and H; W. Farrell came in from the Golden Wedge on Lemon creek Sunday,, where he has been employed during the winter. He reports that there are about 1Q0 tons of fine looking ore on the dump awaif'ng treatment, -and that 13 men are at work on and about the property. Just before he left Superintendent Wing was in receipt of a letter from the coirjpany operating the mine, stating that machinery for the stamp mill'and sawmill was on the road, and advising that preparations be immodiatly to get .them. to their destination., If the. soft weather con- tiiHiis it. is considered doubtful whether .they will be able or not to get the machinery from the landing at the mouth of Six Mile creek lo the mine hut a sled road is being built for that purpose. Thoy may be compelled to wait until later in..the spring when they will be'obliged lo build a wagon road but. it is their intention to get it there as soon as possible at whatever cost as the product of their property is comparatively worthless until they get the mill in operation. The sawmill of course cm be taken over the trail as soon as it arrives. Mr. Farrell reports that a few slides have occurred in that vicinity this spring, tuit thoy did no dniiui-gc further thun blockade the trail at one I'lniti!. He thinks tlie outlook of Lemon i-reei* is very promising and expect.*! lo return within a few days.��������� Slocan Citv News.

There are small clouds hovering in ' . the east that are not -yithout signs of a; serious impending struggle-^one, should it occur, that will be accompr r anied with 'unequalled bloodshed. The treatment of Cuba by Spain has ' been most inhuman, so much so that it is surprising that civilization has riot , long ere this interfered! When, how- '.-' ever, a solution has been arrived at in the' independence of, Cuba, it-has.'.sb; much aroused the jealousy of Spain, always a treacherous nation, that resentment, iri a thrust at the United States as a sympathiser with Cuba, follows. In the minds of many, the de- . struGtionof the --'.warshigMaine is thc culmination of this jealousy... , 'This incident is likely'to lead to an entanglement between those byo countries. ' Further east, again,. there is Russia aggressive, and ever arrogant since the Crimean war. -That war! .brought down her pride a distance, but not low enough for, the long continued peace of Europe. In addition unnecessary interference; is made with Great Britain's interests in West . Africa. The Czar feels inclined to secure a footing in China, that it is not for the welfare of the rest of civilization he should have, which brings a ���������i- mild- protest from the Mother Country. This is followed by the investment by Russia of 96,000,000 of roubles in preparations for war.- ' Japan was never satisfied with the termination of her late conflict; and, as a result she would readily be an ally with Great Britain in any conflict ,. in which she, would have an opportunity to renew hostilities with that greatly disabled empire, China! Great Britain has"!appropriated ,������23,778,000 for war, preparations, a. larger sum than she ever before set aside for the Same pnrpose. The United States are following suit, so that all three nations are' appropriating the combined' sum of $240,000,000 for the destruction of humanity. Besides there is an activity in warlike preparations never before seen under similar circumstances. ,,: ' It may be that the good jridgemeu1 of the moderate men of all the nations interested may prevail, and that the threatened destruction may be averted ; but; should it turn out otherwise, it is a moral certainty circumstances will force an alliance between England, the United States and Japan, which will be an impregnable combination. England from her Isr land situation, with numerous colonies all over the world, can never be without an immense navy which the United States with their compact situation will never require ; but the latter have men ���������and means,and are not without officers of distinction. ' Russia would most likely form an alliance with France and Germany, and as the smaller nations���������Denmark, Portugal, Austria, etp., could not well remain neutral in such surroundings, there would be a war in which the whole of two continents would ' be involved in a race for supremacy. It may take a .little time to give a turn to events one way or the"other, but in the meantime the whols world is an anxious spectator. made out of the Canadian puMic. Now the question is simply this : Why do not the govcrnments'take the position of these companies, and become the loaning medium for the people. 'Phey can borrow money cheaper than any private corporation-,; they can as readily, through officials,. get perfect security, as loaning companies ; and instead of pocketing,,' a surplus over ihe cost of management, ��������� give it to borrowers in reduced rates of interest. There are in Canada to-day thousands of families homeless through the extortionate rates of interest charged by loan companies, that might be in comfortable circumstances had they been subjected' to such^ rates of interest only on mortgages la's, governments'could well a'flord to charge under the plan we have suggested. 1 We are aware that loan companies and their emissaries have now such a hold on the' Canadian electorate as may make it difficult for any one in parliament to make radical changes; but nevertheless Ihey are possible, and just what are required to.set tlie Canadian people in a, new era of financial prosperity.-' Banks and bank solicitors could be, made the agencies through which loans would be mad-.' to ���������'borrowers!. which would reduce management to a minimum. THE OLD BLUE LAWS. SOME THAT ARE STILL ON THE STATUTE BOOKS OF NEW JERSEY. MISLEAD ING QU.OT ATIO NS..; Whoever may be the Rossland .correspondent who supplies ,the stock quotations of British Columbia mines in the Engineering and Mining Journal of New York, he shows an utter'' igifofance^^f prevailing prices. The.quotations are so idiotic,, that we feel compelled to callattention to the matter.'' Whilst, all interested in the Kootenays' desire to see the stocks of working properties quoted in such a prominent and largely-read, mining journal, they also desire to see correct quotations, ' as applied to reliable companies. - It is noticeable that the most active stocks have not'been quoted, and, worst.of all, the list contains mention of some wildcats.that no' journal should encourage. We hope the Engineering and Mining Journal will look into the matter, as the quotations are widely read ��������� and should carry considerable weight. As they now stand readers form an incorrect idea of the current prices, and some of the: best mines are not mentioned at all:'...' The foregoing is from the Spokane Miner, and to all of which we cheerfully say amen. It 'is worse than senseless to profess to be an authority on any subject on which you have not the remotest possibility of securing accurate knowledge.���������[Ed.

Why? During the last year, .West Kootenay yielded a revenue of $330,000 to the government, which deducting the Federal subsidies and such receipts as are in no way determined by provincial resources and the sum was considerably more than the one-third of the balance. If then one-third of the entire expenditures of the province were, made on West Kootenay,it would not be getting one cent more than even-handed justice, and as.the Sandon district is in the front with its contributions to the provincial treasure, it would be artless injustice to have overlooked its claims for government grants. CHEAPER INTEREST. In the House at Victoria on Thursday,- Mr. Kydd moved for the appointment of a committee to consider the question of securing lower rates of interest for farmers than they were at present getting. The move is a good one, but why should it stop with farmers ? Why not include others in as good a position to give security ? In a word why does not the government become the loan company for the people? Take any of the loan companies of Canada and they are made up in this way : A number of men go to England and on their financial standing, borrow money at 3 or 4 per cent. They bring it to this country, and as a corporation, proceed to loan it out at from 7 to 12 per cent., as the circumstances warrant, probably an average of 9 per cent. The management may not cost over 2 per cent, and they amass ; for dividends the remaining 3 per cent. In time the accumulations are so great they can pay ofi the original sum borrowed, and run the insti- tution out of the] money they have An Extraordinary Flotation.

The flotation is pronounced lo he the most extraordinary ever launched. There was an extraordinary rush of people who know nothing about, the ;iflairs of the company But the "tip" was generally circulated that it was a good "���������jumble," mid craze extended to the west end, where ladies of title, officers and public men were among the people who besieged Sir Thomas Lipion, imploring: him to take money. Extraordinary scenes were witnessed at the Bank of Scotland, where the lists were opened. The police had to reguhte the crowds. SPRING WEATHER WEAKNESS. It's not the wea.thor that's at fault.

IAW 0E THE SE^i. BV ciiAl:*.i;s B., LEWIS. Allwriteracf son stories devote chapters to what is called "the sentiment of the sea," and all readers of tho same feel their pulses thrill as they read of heroic rescue's. This "sentiment" may have boen ohsorvuble 50 years ago, and now and theii you read of a resone worthy of heroes, but as a matter of fact shipowners and sea captains are I anything but sentimental in thesa daya I of money making. Of ten ships who : sight a signal of distress at sea eight jwill sneak past it if possible, and tha j other two -will be more interested in J tho salvage question than in the saving 1 of life. Shippers want their goods ship- iped aa soon as possible. Shipowners overload and t-nderinan thoir vessels and yet want them- to make quick voyages. Sea oaptains. must 'fcrack on" ��������� and do thoir best, and so it comes about that aid is seldom estended when there is reasonable excuse for dodging it. ,'1'n the year 1880, the brig Welcome left tho port of Liverpool,for: the West Indies, buying on board 180 nioii," women and children, who were going to set- tlo on one. of the islands. Sho,had a crow of 15 men, a supercargo and two cabin passengers,' thus bringing, the total up to almost 200. .Finn weather accompanied the craft until she had ac- -. conipli'shed- two thirds . of the ���������voyage. Then a gale sprang up which dismasted hor and sent her drifting' biick'ov'ei.her wake. The, gale had scarcely..,abated when a. firo broke out, aud though it was extinguished after a hard light a great quantity of provisions was consumed and much of the fresh water was sacrificed.; Kot.a spar,was, left aboard for jury masts, liiid aa the rudder had been..carried away and there was four feet of water in the hold the peopla realized that tho wreck' could not bec abandoned too soon., Soon af tor we of the ship Evening Star sighted the wreck. Wo were sailing under tho'Holiand flag, commnudofl by a Holland captain and mate, and I believe tho oraft was of that nationality. She was bound from Doincrara to New York, loaded mostly with sugar, I believe, and had boon detained in Deine- rara a ooiiple of weeks to ship a crew; It so happened that nn American man- of-war to which I belonged as an enlisted man put into that port for some slight repairs, and 13 of us deserted in a body to go aboard of the Star. We ���������were aU sailors. It does not excuse our action to say that'the Hollander brought this desertion about by the promise of high wages. He wnntGd a orew.aiid.did not care how the men came to him. We had a close shave from, being captured by' our captain, but .got to sea all right,, and as the weather was good and the wind favorable the Hollander "cracked on" to make up for lost time. Oue morning just after .sunrise, we found the drifting brig squaro inour path and only two.or three miles away. After a brief, look.at her through the, glass captain and mate fell to cursing at their ill luck. As a matter of fact we hud neither, water, nor provisions to spare, and the ship was loaded down to the mark., with cargo, but w.hen '..wa hi arc! our officers propose to puss the wreck without notice every man of the toil was ready.for mutiny. We demanded that communication be .opened with the unfortunate people, and after a good deal of growling the Star ran down to them and sent a bout aboard. The report of the mate when ho returned ^was to the efleot. that tho people were on quarter allowance, with much sickness among the women and children, and that they desired to abandon the wreck and be taken aboard of the ship. We had spare spars aboard, ; and the Hollander offered to sell three or four stioks for about three times their value, the payment to be made in gold ou delivery. The oaptain of the brig declined buying, aa he was satisfied that the shattered hulk could never be worked into port, even, if fully provisioned. The Hollander then agreed to sell one oasfe of water and about 80 founds of bread, but just as we were ready to transfer the goods a ; squall came up, and that gave him an oxcuse for sailing away. His firm intention was to abandon the wreck to her fate, and as soon.as we realized it the ten of us went aft in a body and assured him that unless he bore up and furnished rolief we should refuse duty and take the oonsequencas. He blustered"' and threatened x^d. brought out his' pistols, but we were firm, and at length he gave orders to put the ship about. We had to beat up to the wreok, and by the time we reached her there was half a gale blowing and the sea was so heavy that we oould not transfer the provisions. At the end of an hour the Hollander was for making 6ail again, but we refused to touch a rope. He and his mate, both armed with belaying pius, sought to drive us aloft, but we disarmed them and looked them in their staterooms. Among us was a man whe had made several voyages as mate and beans, coffee, tea and other articles of ��������� food for the men. Forwardofthiswe.ro tho water casks, a dozen or more, and all full. When I came to examine the forecastle, I found boots, oilskins, eou'- westers and other belongings . of the crew, to provo' that they had not gono away iu the boats.

Iliad plenty to eat aud drink, thero was nothing to break my,sleep, the wreck might drive where sho would, but thero was no danger of her going down; Tho discovery of the money was followed by a hope of resoue, and this again by worry and anxiety. I wanted to go ashore to on joy my wealth, 2 feared that *wh*jgi rc>eue did como'I should bo robbed. I conjured up a thousand sens.eleKs fears,. aud the upshot was anything but beneficial. I havo spoken of the general situation in a careless way. As a matter of fact, being a navigator, I took observations regularly when the weather 'porniitted and pricked off the drift of the wreck on.the chart. On the average tho weather was fine, but there were days and nights when gale and sea, tumbled 4he waterlogged craft about until only a sailor could have dived, through it. Instead of lifting her the waves ran over her, and, at such times the decks were two feet under water and tho cabin was flooded. The cargo was afloat with the water in the hold, and as tho wreck rolled and pitched , the timbers rubbed "together and produced' noises, whiqh would have frightened landsmen into fits; I kept an accurate reckoning^ and I ! bad been on the wreck just 49 days when I - caught. sight of my first sail. ��������� No doubt ships bad passed and repassed me by day and night, but I could set no signal by day and from the first I slept all through the night. This sail was discovered early one morning, coming up from the south, and her course was suoh that she must see me. I had put the money into bags and the bags into . bundles of clothing in view of a rescue, and thereforo' had nothing to do but wait. The stranger, which proved to be an English merchantman bound for India, but 'considerably ofi: her course,- was withili four miles of me and had set a signal to gladden my heart when a big whaio suddenly broko water close to the wreck. Ho was followed .half,a minute later by, a second, which attacked him with great fury. .The niouKtera., put up a.terrifio battle, lashing and biting each other and kicking up ii sea liko a galo of wind. They at first 'drew away from me,, but .after a few minutes made a oirolo which brought them back. What I had feared from tho first camo to pass after a quarter of an hour. Half blinded by pain and fury, or fiisling it- solf overmatched and desirous of getting away, ono of tho whale's suddenly whirled about and cam 0 for tho wreck head ' on.: Ho 'was fully 80 feet long, and he oacno like iv uioviug mountain.

Kootenay., Power Line is Within a Mile ot Rossland. Half Line of the Wesf, Kootenay Lifiht & Power company is now within a ball mile of' the site of the sub-station, and iu order to ensure patrons of the company an uninterrupted service, a parallel line is now being run from Bennington falls. The-station will be erected near the Ki'd Mountain depot, , and calls forbids for the erection of the building are now out. The company has entered into a contract to supply power for the oper ation of the War Eagle mine, and before the season is well'advanced- it is probable that the majority of the Rossland mines will be utilizing the same power supply. The company could furnish plenty of power nt once if it chose) but it will probably get everything in shape arid its machinery running a month or so before ic will attempt to supply the mines. It is estimated that this, method' oi operating will be far cheaper than coal at $5 per ton, with the utmost improved machinery, and that' it. will materially aid in the development oi the camp. Tho distance from the power I'louas at Bonninj-t.on Falls to Rossland is 30 miles, and the plant at the falls will generate from 2,500 to 3,000 horse power. HOTES FROM THE CAPITAL.

For thc past nine years he has been in. the Yukon district. His success for capitalists was so great that he wiU work for himself. He owns many claims in ' the Klondyke. Mr. phristie is opposed to the wild rush of people to the gold region. He says that tho country is all right for the practical . miner, but fears that if new diggings are not discovered, not two per cent, of the corners will make a strike. Work for Fifty Prospectors. A.

He struck Joe twice at close -quarters anil sent him down and theii tried to force him over the ropej. It took the referee and two policemen lo drag him away. Choynski claimed afoul, but it was not allowed. In the sixth round Sharkey again renewed his foul tatics, hitting Joe while in a clinch against the ropes. Choynski, howeveiy was game, and, after straightening himself up, smashed the Sailor on tbc-jaw with a right until ho was groggy. Sharkey then lost his'.head completely and repeatedly .'.fouled- his opponent. The crowd howled its derision but the referee did not say a word. The nanus tactics were employed by Sharkey, in 1 ho ���seventh round. , He r.islicd Joe like a mad bull and pushed him clean .through the ropes, falling on the platform himself. The crowd was so^disgusted at this performance tl.at lhe referee sent the men to their corners and declared the fight a draw. Sharkey's attitude as he rushed across the ring to war, I Green, was so threatening that the police'flooded the rope arena and escorted him out of it, much to his chagrin. Indeed, he wept from sheer disappointment. It is not thought possible, that Sharkey will ever be given a chance to fight in this city again. Even his friends have gone back on him. Green seems I�� have acted as he did more from fear partiality towards thc Sailor. tc-i-. ,- '.,,,. .'���*. The rate on ore from Rossi ind to N'ethp'orf, IS miles, 76-cents per ton. , 4.
