SUMMER RESORTS.

ITO the mountains our people in in
creasing numbers yearly look for those
days Of relaxation and recreation nee
essary to maintain the human ma
chine in fair working condition. The
dangerous sloth Of the seashore proves
very seductive while 1t lasts, but
many have decided that the an
nual outing should provide not only
radical change Of air and surround
ings, but also such stimulation of
tagging energies as win provide Drawn
and vigor for the return to labor. For
this they urge the mountain climb and
ramble. the balsam Of the mountain
pines. and the clear. unadultOrated
mountain air.
"In this direction the Shasta Route
now affords a wealth Of attractions.
The entire line Of road from Ashland
to Redding is studded with charming

are cheer and comfort and healing at
reasonable cost. and where you can

bia Asked to Resign.
OTTAWA. Ont. June 2O.-At Tues
days meeting Of the cabinet the posi-
ton Of the lieutenant governor Of Bri-
tlsh Columbia was up for consideration.
Lieutenant Governor McJnnes has had
four governments in two years. Two of
them were dismissed. One with ma
jority at its back, and the other he re-
fused to permit the Legislature to meet
in order to see where 1t stood.
A solid vote of the legislature was
recorded against the selection Of Mr..
Martin as premier, yet Lieutenant
Governor McInnes refused to obey this
vote and called upon him to form an
administration. and afterward dissolved
the legislature to permit Mr.. Martin
to appeal to the province. The result
was that Mr.. Martin met with an over
whelming defeat, and now 25 of those
who were elected, out OF house Of
IS members, have passed resolution
asking for the dismissal Of the lleuten-
ant governor. The result Of today's
meeting was the request for Mr.. Nc
Innes to resign. If he does not then
he win be dismissed from office.
In the house of commons Sir Charles
Tupper moved an amendment that i'm
mediate representation should be given
to the Yukon territory in the house Of
commons as demanded by the people of
that district. The resolution was de-
feated by vote of SO to p, Sir VIII
fred Launer contending that there
should be delay until after the census
shall be taken next year.

with contempt upon the profession OF
