The little steam yacht Niobe made fas,

nleted, being only 80 feet long and 10
feet beam. She is run by kerosene. hav-
ing a water tube boiler and compound
engines.
The Niobe left St. Louis last October
and started for New Orleans. Arriviu.
there early in the winter. the party spent
the entire time cruising around the coast
and visiting the smaller lakes which
abound in Louisiana. They lived aboard
their BOAT all the time and dined N

STRAIGHT TALK.

1t is useless to attempt to dodge the
cause of our present business stagna-
ton. You may tell working people that
their trouble is brought about under
Republican laws. Their answer will be
both swift and true. 1t will be this:
True, under laws passed by Republi-
cans. but SO long as these same laws
were administered by the Republican
party no harm came to us. Our employ
ment was constant. and our wages were
good. We must Therefore be suffering
from the fear of bad administration: for
fear that the very laws will be repealed
under which business was good and our
employment was secure
II the working people are suffering on
account of bad tariff laws why did not
these tariff laws produce the same re
suits under Republican rule: More
than that: if these laws were so bad why
was not Congress called together. and
why were not these laws repealed: \
late session has beer called. but not for
any such purpose. The president sim
ply promises in his message that at
some future time the tariff shall be re-
vised. His statement has only aggra-
waited the trouble. If fear of repeal
works such injury. what will follow the
repeal Itself:
slt at The extra session of Congress the
Sherman law shall be repealed, and if
Congress shall her adjourn leaving the
threat for the early passage of a tariff
law drawn for the purposes of revenue
only. then relief TO the business men of
this country will not follow this extra
session. If this Congress will pass a res.
olution that there shall be no radical
changes in our tariff schedules during
this entire Congress. and then 90 home.
and afterwards keep their promise. the
country will get immediate relief. Bus
mess will at once revive. Men will
again be given employment.
| know such d course will meet the
statement. that it will ignore the verdict
Of the last election. Perhaps that may
be true. But has there not already
ehoueu TAKEN pldce 10 snow thai that
verdict was wrong: Is it not plain that
our trouble comes today from the fact
that the people themselves fear that the
party in power are about to be governed
by their notion as to such a verdict. and
are about to ignore all the facts that
have occurred in this country since the
verdict was returned:-R. q. Horr in

why British ColupbiA Millmen Like

VANCOUVER. B. c., Dec. Especial +
The single trade in British Columbia 10
not success. Mr.. Spicer, owner OF the
largest mills in the province. said to the
Posr-INrELLIGKScER correspondent that,
owing to the short-sighted action of some
of the lumber dealers in the province, his
line has become scarcely profitable. Iniu-
dicious competition has so cut prices that
barely nominal margin remains for the
manufacturer. The shingie manufactur.
ers of British Columbia have not combined,
as the Puget sound manufacturers, to fix
prices at a certain figure. below which
they will not sell to Eastern markets, and
snch course is impossible. owing to the
deficiency in unity and enterprise among
the manufacturers on the Canadian Paci-
fic coast.
Mr.. Spicer is to try shipments of shingles
to Honolulu and Australia. but will give
most of his attention TO organizing the
shingle men of the province in the hope OF
nursing the home market into healthy
condition again.
On account of the overproduction of
shingles in 1902 very little has been done
this year, the surplus being sufficient to
supply the demand The completion OF
the Soo-Pacitic railway has caused the man
ufaeturers to look to the district of OHIO
for possible market, but 30 cents duty per
NJ. somewhat dampens their arior, as 30
cents is all the profit British Columbia
dealers usually calculate on. The largest
lot of shingles ever shipped east vas sent
this summer by Spicer & Co. There were
fifteen cars. containing 1890, 600 shingles.

no ORDINANCE TO COVER IT.
Truck Drivers Selfish Action Must &C
Unpuntshed.

Truck Drfvers Seinsn ActlOn Must TO
Unpunished.
Henry Peterson, q truck driver for the
Stetson & Post Milling Company, charged
with obstructing the streets, was dis
charged from custody yesterday by Judge
Glasgow on motion of City Attorney Fort
son, who found there was no ordidance
covering the case in point Peterson left
his truck all night Monday on Main street
in front of the city stables. Only half of
the street is planked. and the truck was
left standing diagonaily across the plank
ing SO that teams could not pass without
being driven off the pianking into the other
half of the street which is very muddy and
full of dangerous holes. In case OF fire
the Tenth street fire engine is always
driven down Main street like whirlwind,
and had an alarm been rung In on Nom
day night there might have been disas-
trous collision between the engine and the
heavy truck.
The matter was reported to Lieut.. Os.
born, who arrested Peterson and brought
him into the municipal court before Judge
Glasgow. Mr.. Fortson could find no pro-
vision in the city ordinances covering this
kind of an offense, and having nothing on
which to base q complaint, he recon-
mended that the prisoner be released from
custody.
