MCINTOSH DECLINES.

On another page will be ~ found
Lieutenant Governor MclLutosh’s
declination of the proffered honor
ofthe nomination to the high posi-
tion. of mayor-of the ‘city of Ross-
land.

‘Vhis answer wis ready for the
: public: yesterday morning but was
“withheld from the Recorp, al-
though given tou the Miner before
noon yesterday. The public would
have appreciated the information
much more had the reply been
published last night.

Governor McIntosh’s reasons fur
declining the proffered honor up-
hold the Recorp iu the stand it has
taken on the situation from the
start'and common courtesy both to
the people of Rossland and the
Recorp. would suggest that this re-
-ply be given outtou the Recorp as
goou as it was ready for pubiication.

Governor McIntosh’s reasons fur
declinivg are souid. His anxiety
that the bill of incorporation be
passed without delay is acquiesced
in by the Recorp, and is no doubt
the sentiment of 211 Rossland. Any
amendments to the bill of incor-
poration as now before the legis-
lature would necessarily delay its
passage and retard operations for
the drainage of the city so necessary
to be begun at once.

His reply contains a few sentences
of wholesome advice that may, if
followed, prove valuable incentives
to good civic government. To ex-
clude sectional and personal proju-
dices means to unite all the forces
of the city and in unity there _is
strength.

There should no be no further

Kas.o, Jan, 15.—(Special Corres-
pondence to the Recorp)—Leaving
the bustling, busy streets of Ross-
land, one is somewhat surprised at
the excessive quietness of the older
towns of Nelson and Kaslo. How-
ever, I find upon investigation that a
large amount of business is transacted
iu a quiet way, with a prospect, dur-
ing the coming summer of a large
sized boom. Nelson, which is well
provided with transportation facilities,
isa sortof supply point for the vast
surrounding country and bonsts of a
number of prosperous job! ing houses.
The prime topic of interest there just
now isthe incorporation of the city,
and there is little doubt about the bill
going speedily throngh the legislature
enabling her to form a new city govern-
ment early this spring, and it is then
the ambition of Nelson to become the
capital of east Kootenay. as it prac-
tically is now.

Kaslo is already incorporated and is
in every way u model little city—
clean, orderly, wel} protected and sup-

Throughout the Slocan district
there will evidently be great activity
in the mines during the coming sum-
mer. The claims in this country have
the advantage of being immensely

easily worked, so that the man of
