It is time for action. The blow has been struck and the only question is, do you men have the courage to de- fend yourselves. It is not- going to cost you much. The blow Kas been struck by Mr. Walker, who stands in Mr. Corbin’s shoes, having no better better rights than Mr. Corbin.

He said he never houst ight of such a thing.” P is certain “squatters” from tbe land occupied by them will be opposed by every available legal remedy, Mr. Curtis placed the subject on bed rock by saying, substantially, that the “squatters” cannot win the struggle by virtue of legal right, ~ The question is, Who has the right Of possession? Until that is deter- mined by the ceurta, or otherwise, the “squatters” may raise the issue that the railway company does not have the right of possession, and moreover, did not have the power to transfer the right of possession to others, whether by contract of sale of lota, or by deed. It is not difficult to understand that many interesting questions will be raised when the suits will come up for trial.

If this, and other points are distinctly raised and considered by the court as a part of the defense, it is difficult to under- stand why the presumptions should not ran against the (railway com- pany rather than against many hundreds of people who, if evicted, will be caused much trouble and suffering iu their efforts to secure shelter at this season of the year.

Kellie to a Trail Creck News man, “West Kootenny was divided from Eust Koctenay, and prior to that time the revenue aod expenditure was all under the heading of the Kootenay diatrict. In the four years ending June 50, 1895, West Kootenay con- tributed $253,000. in the: revenue of 1,000,000 Shares, ? the provincial government while the expenditure in the district, by the government during that period, was $324,000. It. must - be remembered that this district should contribute her share of the cost of the general goverument of the province as a whole. Of course, it was unable to do this, and the- difference t.atween the and expendi Bi With its Proportion of the interest on the debt, makes a deficit of about $200,000 short of the actual revenue. “In other provincen, many of the expenditures are borne by the muuici- pal corporations and organized dis- tricts, while in Kootenay it is all borne by the gencral government. The revenue for the past fiscal year ending June.’96, were perhaps $100,- 000 to $122,000, und the expenditures probably equalled the revenue.
