While the mining development of Canada is set forth from year to year in statistical returns and shows an expansion greater than that of any other department of useful in- dustry, says the Toronto Globe, the popular’ interest in Canadian mines is a new feature and cannot be gauged by statisticians. A few years ago the news of the mjning districts of British Columbia awak- ened little or no general interest in the older provinces, and even local mining ventures, though often ex- tensive, were regarded by the public with little more than a mild curios- ity. All this is now changed. The report of arich strike anywhere in the Pacific province is read with eagerness in every part of eastern Canada, and the same is true to an even greater extent regarding the fortunes and misfortunes of the mines in northern Ontario. We may regard ourselves as a nation of min- ers, for the man who has not some mining shares in his desk, his trunk or his valise is now regarded as an exception among his fellows. A few years have seen British Co- lumbia transformed from a.:pair of enterprising coast cities to an ex- tensive province,dotted with towns, traversed by railways and making a great and growing yearly contribu- tion to the mineral output of the Dominion. Throughout the moun- tainous region south of the Can- adian Pacific railway towns have sprung up as if by magic. Every rich find has brought its quota of miners, and their proverbial. liberal- ity has brought every line of ‘com- mercial and industrial enterprise that goes to make a mining town. It is but a few years since the first stakes were driven where now there are cities known in every part of the Dominion. In the interval have been t y bed have been erected,railways have been built, irrigation works have been established, local public works have been completed and a new social and industrial life has come into existence. This remark- able development has virtually brought a new province into exist- ence, and is shifting the centre of population and influence inward from the coast in spite of the rapid growth of the terminal city. A New York exchange which ad- vocates the nomination of Dewey for the presidency without much re- gard for Dewey's wishes, says: ‘‘Nine times out of ten presidential candidates are chosen by the poli- ticians. The tenth time the people nominate their own president by at- mospheric acclamation, and the politicians accept him. Grant's nomination in 1868 was made that The politicians did not want He did not want them nor the presidency. They. had other candidates picked out. When he was first mentioned asa presidential way. him. possibility they could. not. classify | him with a certainty as democrat or republican. They. doubted and dis- trusted him. But the popular voice was persistent for Grant.” VOICE OF THE PRESS. If all goes well, the steel should be laid into Greenwood by October 10.—Cascade Record. The Crow’s Nest Pass Coal com- pany contracted with the C.P.R. to supply them with gooo tons of coal for.the month of September.—Fer- nie Free Press. Large quantities of plums, prunes and apples are being freighted from the Columbia valley, in Washing- ton, to the mining towns of British Columbia.—Spokesman-Review. Finance Minister Cotton repaired the government fences throughout Kootenay on a recent trip, and At- terney General Henderson is pected to do the same in Cariboo, where he is on the circuit along with Chief Justice McColl.— Nelson Tribune. . exe No merchant should hesitate to put his surplus money out at a good rate of, interest. A large eastern advertiser says that advertising is just like putting money out at inter- est, onlv it pays a better return than the ordinary interest rate.—Spo- kane New West Tarde. As protection to home industries was the policy that started the Con- servative party on its long career of office is 1878, soa re-assertion of the same policy, intensified and ex- tended, will give them the victory at the next election, whether that be in 1899 or 1900.—Toronto World, The national policy has made a nation of eastern Canada, while the Canadian Pacific railway has opened up what will eventually be- come a bigger nation in the west. It is already apparent that the country traversed by the C.P.R. is destined to contain, and that et no very distant date, the bigger half of Canada’s _ population. — Toronto World. At the present time there seems to be even less cohesion in the ranks of the opposition than in those of the government forces, and no controlling spirit. To have a suc- cessful party,there must be a leader and a platform that will appeal to the good sense of the electorate. So fir, there appears to be no effort to evolve either of those essentials. —Greenwood Miner. The future of Ymir looks most promising. The boys are out in the hills, working vigorously, mines are being developed, assessment work being done, and prespects worked. At no period in the history of the camp has such work been going’on and it only, goes to prove what con- fidence there is in the future of the Ymir camp, and the returns will be in common thereto.—Ymir Miner. The absence of distinctive lines of division between the parties in Brit- ish Columbia makes each man a party of his own. He is responsi- ble only to himself, and as a result his policy is to better his own con- dition, irrespective of the interests of the province generally. If the dividing lines that prevail in the Dominion were carried into the province, either the Liberal or Con- servative party would be responsi- ble for the legislation enacted by either side in the local house.—Nel- son Economist.
