To the Editor of the Recozp: yaluable paper I would like to say @ few words in regard to 3 communication that ‘Sppeared in’ a Rossland paper of the 15th inst., headed with the words, “Provincial Politics,” and signed, ‘A Liberal.” province is overwhelmingly conservative and easays to prove it by saying that Mr. Bostock was elected principally be- cauge Mr. Mora was not a popular man. But if he looks back to 1891 when that gentlemian was elected by acclamation, |: and then to'the last election “he would |' find that he is a very popular man among conservative politicians yet. But what I think élected Mr. Bostock was what elected the rest of the liberal members in the Dominion, that is the people got tired of protection. They wanted to try free trade and provincial rights. He also said that Mr. Maxwell was elected because there were two conservatives running against him-and ‘split’ the: conseryative vote. The people down there think just the reverse: Chat if Mr. Bowser had not run that Mr. Maxwell would have had a great deallarger majority on ac- count of their both being opposed to the remedial bill and that being one of the principal planks in the platform. It was the game: with Mr, If you will allow me space in your) will “Liberal” says-that this |), TO DISCUSS SEWER MATTERS. Call for a Public Meeting at Opera - House Tomorrow Night. A call has been issued for a public meeting to be held at the opera house Friday at 3 o’clock to discuss the follow- ing propositions relative to the sewer system now under construction in the clty: 1, The construction of the main sewer renders it profitable that it is the inten- tion of the city council to force the own- ers of property on the line of the sewer to connect their buildings with it. This will not only entail very serious expense, but, unless itia done in a systematic and workmanlike manner, will bea dan- ger to thé public health. 2.
