which reaches far away to the lands
where perpetual night and everlasting
snow are common sights, there is q
touch Of romance and mysticism
which cannot be described. The coun-
try is thinly settled yet, and many q
landmark remains which speaks with
thrilling vividness of an earlier race.
1t is a new occupation for them, who
till a few years ago did not know
what it was to read another mans
talk on paper" and the idea is so
novel that they resort to many anus
ing schemes in order to get correspond
ents. Seventy-fve to 100 natives sent
out letters to correspondents whom
they never saw or knew.
Civilization, however, has made
rapid progress, and these North Am
erican Indians are losing much of the
primitive savageness, and the early be-
liefs of idolatry and paganism are
giving way to the Christian religion.
Customs, manners, and even dress are
becoming modern, and in half a cent
ury, or long before, every trace of ear
lier barbarism will be swept away en-
tirely. Kamloops Of to-day has some
1000 inhabitants, and is the business
center Of the surrounding country from
twenty-five to fifty miles distant. The
town was formerly a Hudson Bay fort
or trading post. 1t began to grow
after the construction Of the Canadian
Pacific Railway.-Maibelle Justice, in

pointed Senator t. l.. Ford ard Charles g. Yale
OF lbls city 10 proceed 10 Washington and look
out Tor The interests of the miners of this State
One OF the matters upon which these gentle
men Will lay particular stress is with reference
TO an appropriation made by the last Legisla-
lure OF 500 600 FOR the erection or restraining
uam on he Auba River, above Marysvle. The
appropriation was given upon the condition
that an equal sum be granted by Congress this
spring. They Will endeayOr 10 secure this coU-
uIlloual appropriation, although il is presumed
mat IN view of deficit in the treasury of that
department the Chances are not bright as
might be.
Another important measure upon which they
intend 10 act is in connection with bill drafted
on the same basis as the weiI-knOwn Stewart

Ford and forwarded to Frank Newlands.
The main points IN the bill are; Whenever
land is found In mineral belt IL Is presumed 10
be mineral until the contrary Is proven. AT
present the burden of the presumption is on the
miner
Again, II mineral is found in an adjoining
claim. the claim in contest is presumed TO be

sumed that it always has been mineral land.

coming administration. The bill Is TO place the
mining interests Of The coast in more salts

All Cue Set Free.

The Supreme Court has ordered the dis
charge OF All Cue from custody. An Cue was
arrested under an act of the State Legislature,
passed March 20, 1891, providing against the
Importation OF Chinese into the Slate, whether
subjects OF the Chinese empire or not, and Or
dering the immediate registration OF those al
ready Inhabitants Of the State. The prisoner
sued out writ of habeas corpus before the Su-
preme Court.
In sitting the prisoner at liberty the Supreme
Court decided that the statute under which All
Cue was arrested was so far In excess OF the
power OF the State and In violation of the con-
stltution OF the United States that IL was not
worth while to enter INTO any discussion of the
merits OF the case. A similar decision was rem
dered III the case of George Lippman.
