Although Mr. "Wells, M.P.P., was in the House only a week before tbe close of tin; session he had the con gratulatious of his fellow members on tbe oxcellent services which he rendered to hie constituents within that short time, and the success of .his per Sisteilt efforts in obtaining the grant on the snpplomentnty estimates for the bridge at "Windermere was a surprise to the other inetubors, who. witli good reason, complimented North East Kootenay ou having such a live and active member. Mr. Wolls had to contend with difficulties iu this matter which were mado for him boforo he got there by those who ought to have had mote discretion. Owing to the surrounding circumstances wo cannot well publish the details of this matter but to those who are acquainted with it the success of Mr. Wells's efforts will bo the more appreciated. Mr. Wells intends returning to Victoria shortly to go fully into the requirements of North East Kootenay with tbe members of the cabinet and to ensure the interests of the district being actively pressed forward.

In dealing with the town lots at Field wo hops the Minister of the Interior will take steps to see that the people who have built on lots there will be fully protected in their interests. It has been stated that the lots will be put up to auction, but we submit thnt would be a most unjust pro- posal, as it would enable tbe C.P.R. or any other monopoly to buy np these lots and give them full control of the townsite���the very thing which it is sought to avoid. The people who have taken up lots and built should have tbe first right to them, und a reasonable valuation should be placed on the lots, with a small deposit, and tho balance payable on easy terms. This policy would ensure to the residents there the right which they are entitled to, and moreover it would enable tbe C.P.R. employees to get free homes and not be bound body nud soul to the Company employing them. We have asked Mr. Rostock to support this view of the case with the Minister of the interior aud he will doubtless do so. Revelstoke is ut lust sn incorporated city aud the municipal election is Used for March 112nd. We congratulate the sister town ou thus coming to the front among the towns uf the Province, Visitors are coming into the district in search of agricultural and grazing lands in the rich valley of the Columbia. That is a good sign, and oue betakening tbe oouiliig prosperity of tne district. THE NEW LOAN. STATEMENT BY MR. H.P P., WELLS, The following is a correct statement favored us by W. C. Wells, M.P.P., showing the 1'oms upon which a new loan of 5*1,800,000 is based, aud whioh the Finance Minister now finds it necessary to raiso: ISSriMATKU DJJF10IT AT TUB END OF JUNE, 1899.

This ho hopes to wipe out hy increased revenue, uud as compared with previous deficits is a very satisfactory showing. To do this without (increasing tne proposed loan is what Mr. Cotton coansiders imperative in preserving the financial credit of the Province. The deficit for the ensuing fiscal year, as Mr. Wells puts ��� it, n-presents considerably less than our annual interest account alone and which now foots up in round figures over $242,000.00, so that were it not for the gross recklessness of previous administrations, wo would now bo in the hnppy condition of not only making ends meet but enjoying u surplus os well. The Finance Minister has been compelled to curtail in every possible direction, so as to bring the expenditure for the next year within a point obviating au inci eased loan aud tho public in their demands should not be so exacting ns to defeat Mr, CAton iu his luuluble object. Were wo able, Mr. Wells suys, lo spend this huge interest appropriation iu development work, a very different state of things would present Itself, it will, of course, be said iu defence of the late government, that we havo our public works to represent this large amount to be annually provided for ut ,--,-. ... , ��� , ��� , fixed charges against our revenue but ' S&v*"*'* P"!

We have endeavored for tho past 18 months to impress on tho people of Golden the importance of the northern country, the necessity of getting good communication with it, and the desirability of cultivating its trade end resources. Tete Jaune Cache is the common point for that country, and Tete Jaune Cache is distant 480 miles from Edmonton, 240 miles from Kamloops, and only 100 miles from Golden. Tbe rotttos from Edmonton and Kamloops present also great difficulties, while, with the expenditure of $2000 on the trail from Donald, a first-class means of communication can bo got between Golden and the Cache. Another feature of this route is that Water communication can be obtained to within 40 miles of the Cache liy the Columbia and Cunoo rivers. Gold is found in all the rivers and streams in that country. At loast this is what Mr. Evans, who has been prospecting there for the last two or three years, in company with Mr. Price, tells us. Nothing however of any note was found till last fall, when, iu pros, act- ing Swift Current, which runs into the Fraser near Tete Jaune Cache, such good rim prospects were found that the party returned to Golden, outfitted and went back. There have been four parties of prospeciaars in there this seo- sou���Messrs. Price and Evans, Holliday and party, Frank Fulton, the woll known trapper anil his partner, and a party from Edmonton, l'ria-o a��d F.van�� locaied ou Swift Current, ami Holliday aud party located on tho samo stream u bit Inghor up, while Frank Fulton located on a stream Tviiieb joins the Fraser 60 miles further north, and is tlio fifth tributary from Tote Jauuo Caeho. Each party built a cabin, and started sinking shafts to bed rock. A month ago Evans left camp to como out on suowsliajos. The trip took him oror a fortnight, two days of which wore spent in a stop-off to effect repairs to snow- shoes, eta. lie carried his supplies with liiui and cached somo on the way for the return trip. Ue reached Uoaver a fortnight ago, and waauto.t tol-anuuld and Golden, lie brought out let.ers with lijin aud also particulars tor recording ten claims, Mr. Griffith, UaJJ Commissioner, got Ilio particulars of thesa claims anal soot, them on for record to Barker- ���aillo, the district iu which lh*-y wero locatod being in the Cariboo Mining Division, Evans is naturally reticent as to the exact position of all'alls but it is generally believed tliat something good lias been struck.

Thero is great jubilation at Windermere over the grunt for the bridge at tbe Salmon Beds, and the unanimous opinion of the people of Windermere now is that Mr. Wells, M.P P., who sscured tbe grant, is ������allright." The Winnipeg Free Press points out that the C.P.it. is no longer able to run the Dominion ns it was under tbe Conservative ndtniuistrutio i, and instances how the other day the C.P.R. hud to climb down by withdrawing its monopoly lur.tf to the Standard Oil Company ou the demand of tho Railway Committee. We have to congratulate Mr. W. C. Wells, M.P.P., on the excellent start he has made in watching tbe interests of his constituents, though he was so late in reaching Victoria. Theesii mates and legislative reforms show that the listriot whioh bo represents has had its interests as 11 whole us carefully nnd fully attended to ns it was possible under the necessary policy of retrenchment and re arrangement of th* public finances of the Province. Tbe Government should put in hand at once the uoiistruotlun of the bridge over the Columbia at tht Salmon Beils so that it may be available for traflic as soon as the rush sets in. Besides, timber can now be put on the ground niore easily and cheaply than later on. An offer has already been made to build the bridge for the sum of $8000 $500 less than the amount voted. Wecominend this matter to the urgent attention of Mr, Wells, M.P.P. That Throbbing neadache. Would quickly leavo you, if you used Sr. King's New Lifo Pills.

Mr. Wells argues tliat it is therefore safe to assume that under the policy of the present administration for tbo next few years Mr. Cotton will not only put the finances of the province in a very much improved condition but will materially meet the demands which must lie made for development work���eesoiiiially iu mining roads as well as other publiu improvements so indispensable to our progress and that we have ouly to exercise some degree of patience us tho penalty of so inniiy yours unbusinesslike management of our finances iu extending to Mr. Cotton the encouragement he has so well earned while endeavoring to put the affairs of the Province upon a sounder basis. It is to bu hoped, as suggested hy Mr. Wells, lhat the new loan will be largely, if not wholly taken up without going to London, thus getting the fullest possible benefit from it by avoiding the usual shrinkage in the way of com missions and other charges. without requiring any bay to ba: There is considerably less si been experienced, ami hoi W. C. Wells, M.P.P.. returned from his legislative duties on Friday last, and will shortly make a tour of the electorate wilh a view to meeting his constituents and making himself thoroughly ncqusinlod with their requiro- uieuts. We supported Mr. Wells because wo believed ho would make a lirst-class member. The whole electorate will soon come round toour way of thinking in this regard, for Mr. Wells is determined to givo overy portion of bis constituency the same attentive consideration that he has given to the interests of Wiudermere. Robbed tho brave. A startling incident, of which Mr. John Oliver of Philadelphia, was the subject, is narrated by him as follows : "I was in a most dreadful condition. My skin was almost yellow, eyes sunken, tongue coated, pain continually in my back and sides, no appetite ���gradually growing weaker day by day. Three physicians had given me up. Fortunately a friend advised trying 'Electric Bitters;' and to my great joy and surprise, the lirst bottle made a decided improvement, I continued their use for three weeks, and am now a well man. I know they saved my life and robbed the grave of another victim." No one should fail to try them. Only 60 cts, a bottle, every bottle guaranteed, at any Ding Store, 6 fa al to tlioni . snow at Tete Jaune Cache llian thero is at Uolaloii. Evans found good travelling ar-n snow sh-.es ou the way out except for threo days of iho nip between Canoe liivor anal KinbasUot Lake. Evans loft tiailalon ou Wednesday to return, taking a gentleman from Edmonton with hint. From what wo wore able to gaithor the grouud is not yet so thoroughly tosteal as to bo alalo to.-.ay definitely whether a rich strike has been made. Evans says that Diving to the gi-ouinl freezing the 'prospectors have been unable to get their .shafts to beal-roek He thinks, however, from a message obtained from Frank Fulton, that lie has mado a pretty good strike. Evans was much disappointed to learn of the alien law just passoal as it has debarred several of tlio prospectors from recording tho claims tlaey haul staked. Among others so affected are Fulton, llollialay, and Oavons.aud perhaps others. Claims havo been staked tor some (iolalen and Donald people, among others, J. C, Tilts, J. G. Ullock, and J.Noble. The district being so much more convenient to (iulalon than any other point we wouial suggest to Jlr. Wells, M.P.P., that steps he taken to have the boundaries of North East Kootenay extended to cover it. Tliat records should nave tu come to Golden and than lie sent on to llarkervills for registration is too absurd for anything. The Revelstoke Herald admits the advantages ol Gulden aud district uu a rival for tho trade of the Big Bond and Cunoo river country. Our contemporary remarks : " The fate of this place is so Intimately bound up with tbe development of the Big Bend nnd Canoe rivor countries that we cannot afford any carelessness in connection with it. No matter how groat the natural advantages of our geographical position it would unquestionably interfere considerably wilh tho establishment of this point as tbe business centro for North Kootenay if Htcamcrs began to run to Big Bend from Beaver before we got our line started from Rovelstoke. And that thero aro certain advantages about the route from Beaver is undeniable." DONALD. GREAT CHANGES. On a visit to Donald recently we noticed great changes. The big C.P.R. boarding house hnd been removed, as had also the ice-house, and almost every train saw somo former resident leaving tho town or shipping furniture and belougiugs. The refreshment rooms over which the Misses Cleary formerly presided were closed, the ladies having removed to Revelstoke. Hull Bros, butcher's shop was boarded up. The attendance ut the school had fullen from about 00 to 30, aud Mr. Barron, the head master, who has done such excellent work for education, is under orders to leave, the school to be carried on meantime under his efficient assistant, Miss Millard. Two well-known residents, Messrs. Urquhart and Woodhouse were arranging leave at tho time of our visit and they were to be followed by others. Mr. Patmore has beon on a visit to West Kootenay to look out a new location, and he leaves again next week for the purpose of paying a visit to tbe Boundary country nnd looking out a now home. The Donald gaol, with one prisoner, is nt present under charge cf Mr. Slirrett, but. no gaoler has been appointed in place of Sheriff Redgrave, and tho gaol will be located at Golden as soon as the transfer arrangements are completed. The once active office of the station agent is now loft alone to Mr. McMillan, the agent. The two operators formerly there have been removed to Rogers Pass and the agent has to do all the office telegraphy as well as bis ordinary work, which hus. been very heavy, owing to the rapid removal of the Company's and the employees' effects, necessitating the billing and despatch of several cars each day. T. Forrest has pulled down bis gas plant and sent it to his new hotel at Cranbrook, and he will remove there as soon as possible. W. Caldwell, proprietor of the Nolles House, however, says he in'ends to remain, Mr, D'Arcy.tbc C.P.R. claims agent, paid the town a visit last week witb a view to investigate the claims for compensation that have been put in against the Company by resilient, who have suffered loss by their buildings and businesses being rendered valueless in consequence of tiie removal of the shops and divisional point. Mr. D'Any has the reputation of being an able and fair adjuster and the people expect reasonable consideration at his hands, Mr. D'Arcy returned to Winnipeg on Sunday ��� and will report to Mr. Whyte. Mr. D'Arcy's view is that the people of Donnld have no legal claim and that compensation awarded will be purely voluntary on tho part of the Company. We hope, however, to see the residents of Donald treated by ths Company as liberally as possible. A Tliousnild T-sugnett Could not oxpress the rapture of Annie E. Springer, of Hi.',7) Howard St.. Philadelphia, Pu., when she found that Dr. King's New Discovery for Consumption had completely cured her of a hacking cough that for many years bad made life a burden. All other retnodes and doctors could give her no help, but sho says of this Royal Cure���"It soon removed the pain in my chest and I can now sleep soundly something I can scarcely romember doing before. I feel like sounding its praises throughout the Universe." So will every ono who tries Dr. King's New Discovery for any trouble of the Throat, Chest or Lungs. Price 60 cts and $1.00 at any Drug Store; every bottle guaranteed. OPENING UP THE COUHTRY. The New Koud* Act. The Dovelopment Toll Roads Act, passed during the last sorsiou is. us we understand, intended to provide transportation facilities in tho Atliu district, but it is suggested that under this act additional provision could be made for development roads that aro now absolutely necessary in other districts. It is simply n matter of levying toll, nnd whicli might be done byway of an assessment on the output of mines. Wo hope our representative, from whom this suggeetion comes, will do what he can to still further tho interests of tho constituency in this direction. When iho hill came before the House, Mr. Wells, tvhiln expressing his satisfaction at its introduction, strongly urged upon tbo Government the necessity of going further in meeting tbe demands of initio holders by the construction of roads. The loll system ho contended hadsomcdistustelui features and that, a system of assessment would he mete acceptable, loading as it would to more practicable results, He urged upon the Government the necessity of bringing down some general schenio which could be Hindu available for this purpose���conionding that it would never do to continue piece-mealing appropriations as they did not afford tlio relief demanded. The Victoria Times we observe refers to Mr. Wells's remarks in his first speech as a valuable contribution to the debate. WO.-* BIS C'nsu.

TUBERCULOSIS. Said to he Prevailing to an Alarming Extent Among Dairy Herds. The Provincial Board of Health have issued the following circular: That tuberculosis prevails to an alarming extent amongst the dairyherds supplying tho city of Winnipeg with milk is indicated by the tuberculin test as applied lately by tbe Dominion Veterinary Surgeon. Fifty per cent, of those tested up to dnto reaoting. The correctness of the test has beeu proveu iu several cases by slaughtering, post mortem, and bacteriological examinations. The samo diseased conditions may exist amongst dairy herds supplying milk to other centres of population iu the Province. Investigations iu Great Britain, German}*, tbe United States, etc., prove tliat tho disease specially prevails amongst such dairy cuttle, and only lo n slight extent amongst the ordinary cattle of farmers. Tuberculous cattle do not yield tuberculous milk iu nil stages of tbe disease. Few do so in the early stages nnless tho ndtler be the special seat of the infection. Nearly all do so iu tho lutter stages when the disease has become generalized. Iu all cases tbo milk is milk from nn iiuhealtby.a diseased animal, and if not directly capable of conveying the disease, to soy the least, it is extremely obnoxious to thiuk of drinking it. Tlio meat from such tuberculous animals cnten raw, or iu a partly cooked condition, is far more dangerous than milk. Many of these tubercular cattle appear to the eye to be iu prime condition, und when shown to be tuberculous by tho tuberculin test nre generally disposed of by being seut to the slaughter-house to furnish a portion of our meat supply. Upon this point au excellent object lesson is, at this time, nt band. Tho Donkhobors nre vi-gitnrinns; tbey do not cat meat.

WABBEN- When a young woman sits down and ponders over her future life, there is one all-important subject which she should not forget. In a day dream she may build eastles in the air with a happy home, laughing children and a loving husband in the fore-ground. At that moment she miy be fncins death. Matrimony and motherhood hold out no happiness to the young woman who cm Iters from weakness and disease of the distinctly feminine organism.

Thorne, an old man 75 years of age. Thome, who lived with his wife and son on a farm, had but one limb. Financial and family troubles worried him and he went to the bar and made a rope of binder twine. Climbing on a threshing machine, he tied one end of tbe rope around the overhead beams, making it fast at the other end to his neek and jumping from the machine, tho rope broke and he fell to Ibe sjronud, tho fall rendering him unconscious, in which condition he was fonnd some hours later by a neighbor, who had been sent by Thome's wife to look for the old mnn. Thome, although given every care, died from his injuries. A $400,000 WRIT AUA1NST SENATOR COX AND THE CANADA LIFE CO. An Injunction is Also Asked���Explanation by Mr. Byron E. Walker of the Bank of Commerce. Hamilton, March 2.��� On behalf of the Canada Life policy holders a writ has beeu issued in the name of Wm. Lees, of the legal firm of Scott, Lees & Hobsou, against Senator Cox, claiming $400,000 from him, alleged to have been received illegally in his capacity us agent of the company while also a director. Tho company is joined as a defendant, to meet tbe legal requirements, and the plaintiffs also ask for an injunction. Toronto, March 2.���Senator Cox is at present in New York nnd is net expected back until the beginning of next week. Nothing has beeu heard of the issuing of tho writ nt the office of the Canada Life, on King street west, and uo explanation of its meaning was forthcoming, further than nt tho time Senator Cox was appointed to the directorate, Messrs. Heudrio and Stuart opposed tho election nnd raised tbe question as to whether he conld sit ns a director and be remunerated as au ngeut. Byron E. Walker, general manager of the Bank of Commerce, nnd a director of the (Janada Life, spoke ou the matter ns follows: "Mr, Scott is, if 1 am well informed, interested in the Canada Life to tbo extent of ono share, transferred to him just before the annual meeting, and ie, I believe, not a policy bolder. Even if there were anything in their contention, Ibe amount of money sued for is preposterous, and the writ undoubtedly represents tbe personal animus of certain persons in Hamilton, and not the genuine inter esls of the policy holders. Senator Cox bas only been a director for five or six years, and before entering the hoard the qneslion of his right to be both manager of the eastern district and a director was doubtless duly considered."

A very bad attack of the Grippe one year ago last winter left my system in a very weak state and my nervous system completely unstrung. After getting over the dangerous stage of the disease I naturally expected to gain strength, but, unfortunately, did not do so. On the contrary, my blood became weaker. I daily lost strength and vitality, and my nervous system became so weak that it was a constant source of suffering both day and night I lost appetite, the sight of food nauseated me, the weak state of my system caused shortness of breath and unnatural action of the heart, such as fluttering and violent palpitation, and my face was like chalk. I was in this condition and constantly getting weaker when I began taking Dr. Ward's Blood and Nervo Pills. I had read the books they distributed and their advertisements in the papers, and thought, "Well, I have taken so much medicine without benefit it is useless to spend any more money. However, I finally made up my mind. It is a forlorn hope; I can but try. If I am not benefited I will not be hurt. So I bought one box and received great benefit therefrom, so continued their use, and to-day am a well man in consequence; my blood is strong, my face has the ruddy hue of health, my appetite has returned, I sleep well, I have not the slightest indications of nervousness or heart trouble, and from a sick, weak, nervous man Dr. Ward's Blood and Nerve Pills havo transformed me in six weeks to full health and strength."

At first he paid b it little attention to them, thinking that the trouble would pass away, but as it did not he consulted n local physician, nnd was told that his kidneys were affected. Medicine was prescribed, bnt beyond a trifling alleviation of the pain it had no effect. In addition to the pain in tho back Mr. Mintie was tronbled with headaches aud a feeling of lassitude-. He was forced to qnit work, and while in this condition,weak nud despondent, ho deoided to try Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. He purchased a half dozen boxes and was not disappointed with the result.

At the Magistrate's Court, Golden, on Monday, before Mr. Griffith, S.M., J. L. Mackay was charged with nsing a horse the properly of F. J. Deacon. As the defendant had failed to appear to the summons ill tho first instance His Worship demanded au explanation of this contempt of Court aud defendant said as he was busy, and had nothing io do wilh the offence charged against him, he thought il would be sufficient if he soot some one to appear for him. His Worship said he didn't know whether ho was doing right, but he would accept the explanation iu this case, Askoi as to what he had to say with reference lo the charge against him, defendant said he had not used the horse in question. As it had formerly run on the range it fed with his other ���took and he had forbidden his meu to uso tbo horse, and the fact that L. Moodie was fi.uud riding it was in defiance of his instructions, His Worship said there bad been too much of this sort of thing going on up the valley aud he was going to put a stop to it if possible. As defendant did not appear to have been guilty of the offence charged against himself from the evidence he would simply order defendant to pay the costs of the Court and hoped the case would be a warning to people not to interfere with other people's .stock in future. The complainant, F. J. Deacon, asked to bo allowed to put tome questions to the defendant but His Worship snid the case was now closed and lhat could not be done.

The trail leading lo it leaves the middle fork at a point about 16 miles from Carbonate. The distance up the Creek to the point where the mineral locations are laid out is about ten miles. A few years back Copper Creok was highly thought of and a Company represented by Rnnd Bros., and Mr. Oppenheimer, did considerable development work there. The first properties are the IDAHO AND ALASKA claims, which are situated in a glacial basin on the mountain elope on*, the right bank of Copper Creek. There is an immense showing ol quertz on this property, great le ids cutting and cross- cutting the formation, while there are numerous exposures of ore from sine to gold quartz There arc two promising leads of galena. Two short tunnels have been run on these exposures, but since the properties have been in the han���������h of the Klotenny Consolidated Company, Major Clohecy has put some business system into tbe development and the work has been done on a quartz ledge showing strongly in iron. The galena has a crys talliue formation, peculiar tu the galena found on the Excelsior claim ou Crystal Creek and on the Syenite Bluff claim on Vermont Creek. The lead on which development is now being done is two feet in thickness with a strike of lo degrees east of north, and a dip of 65 degieos to the north. At the time of our visit the tunnel was in 35 feet. The property is stated to have given high assays in gold. About a mile further on, and on the same slope is the JUAHITA. This is a property which was operated by Messrs. Oppenheimer. A tunnel hns been driven about 15 feet on a lead which is from three to three and a hall feet in width. This lend yielded mainly zino blende for some distance, and then changed to galena, The lead has a strike of 56 degrees I o the west of north and a dip of 62 to the north. A tunnel was then begun to cross-cut the 'sad but utter driving somo 60 feot the work waa abandoned and the property Crown granted, iu which stale it now lies. Opposite the Juanita ia the MABEL OIIOUP, tbe property of the Alberta k Koote. nay Development Company. It con* sists of three claims, Mabel, Doctor and Lawyer. The lead on which the locations are made is a strong well- defined body of quartz, about 14 feet in width. The location is an excellent one for a mine���easy to work and surrounded by abundance of, wood and water. Some high-grade galena ore is exposed in an open cut, but the main development -nork consists df a tunnel, which has been driven for 90 feet. It was apparently intended tliat this tunnel ahould follow the wall of the lead, but instead of doing this soma mistake has beeu made, and it will be necessary to crosscut to reach ths lead in order to test it at that distance The lead has a strike of 20 degreea west of north. This property will probably carry its value in gold, as the rock* seems strongly impregnated with nrsenical pyrites (mispickle). We are informed that the assays run $5 to (8 in gold and if that is maintained the property should he a valuable ono as it possesses every facility for cheap mining. Tho vein carrying the galena is apparently a stringer of this main load and has a strike of 5S west of north, with a dip of 76 to the north. The galena from thia cross-lead ran $86 in silver. Another lead of similar dimensions to the large lead already mentioned also traverses the property, forming a parallel system, but it has not yet been developed to any extent. Higher up the mountain, on what is supposed to bo the same vein system, is the soi-niKUM cross onour, which has been operated by Messrs. Rand Bros. A large amount of development work has been done by way of tunnelling. The ore is a galena, averaging about 100 in value. Tuis property is now being sold to Euglish capitalists, who, it is hoped, will do something towards developing it and assisting to prove Ihe wealth of what has every appearance of being a good mineral country. Mining Record says: - "Last year. too. much public interest was Sronsed b.t the fine showings of properties iu the Windermere district. A'll these, as well as many prospects in North East Kootenay. were visited by Mr, Robertson, and his statements and opinions regarding them will be of great public value as relating to sections of the country of which very little is definitely known." Mining Recorder Kirkup, of Boss- land evidently anticipates that the office of Gold Commissioner is to be done away with if we may judge ot the following remarks of his in the Rossland Miner: ���"As to the gold commissioneisliip, the only information I have, is that ouly one commissioner is proaiided (or and he is to be stationed at Atlin. A minister and deputy minister of mines is provided [or, and I presume that the work now done by the gold commissioners will be done by the department in Victoria. I do not care to express an opinion as to whether or not this will lie moro convenient to the people, though I have heard expressions of opinion that it will not prove to be more convenient."

James Lewis k Sons, of Liverpool, report: "Standard Copper has been sold op to ��75 10s. per ton during the past fortnight���an advance of 50 per cent above the average price cl lust year. This advance in mainly due to the large consumptive demand for this metal in the United States and to the small stock held in Europe. The effect of this great enhancement of the cost of this metal is already visible in contracted Consumption and stimulated Production. Consumers will only buy for their immediate wants, believing that the present high level of prices cannot be' long maintained. Several rolling miles in South Wales have ceased to work or will shortly do so, and some of the wire drawing mills in Germany are running on half-time. What the increased pro duction of the world will be under the stimulates ot present prices Is at pre sent difficult to say; hur. from what we have been able to gather from different sources it now promises to be fully 75,000 tons over tbat of last year. Many of the leading mining companies are therefore opposed to the present inflation of values, ns later on they anticipate a still greater reaction���to he followed by a lengthy period of low prices and in creasing stocks."
