OPPOSITION TO RATIFICATION.

That there is opposition in Canada to the
ratification by parliament of the trade reciprocity
agreement with the United States cannot be de-
MED Evidences of it are seen in some of the
trade publications Of the Dominion that regu-
larly print cartoons designed to prejudice the
farmers and manufacturers against the pact and
trade organization quite generally i'll the east
ern provinces have taken action in opposition
to ratification 1t has been reported, too, that
the banking interests Of Canada almost without
exception are anti-reciprOclty. Here IS a banker,
however D. Curry of Toronto, who is firmly of
the belief that parliament will ratify the agree
ment although he is not himself an enthusiastic
shouter for the thing
There is question he declared IN an
interview with number of reporters, but that
reciprocity will be carried The farmers want
to sell their products. If the fate of reciprocity
hung upon the vote Of Ontario alone, | don't
think it would carry. But Quebec and the North
west will support it strongly enough to carry
the measure with quite good majority The way
! look at it is this The northwest of Canada
is one of the greatest farming regions in the
world, and it is growing 1t is estimated that its
wheat crop this year will amount to 200,O0O,000
bushels. With the influx of immigration, partic
ularly of wealthy farmers from the United States,
it is safe to say that that production within the
next five years will be doubled Now you can
see that the farmers want market for their
wheat, and where they get the best
price. Therefore the United tSateS is going to
be favorable market for that district F." 1t will
be recalled that only few months ago the
farmers of the northwestern provinces invaded
Ottowa several thousand strong and impressed on
parliament their demand for ratification. They
want, among other things to get their farming
implements and agricultural machinery at lower
prces-the trade procity with the United
States will do it. They not only aim at increasing
their crops through the aid of cheaper American
implements and machinery, but they also seek to
create broader market for these increased
crops. Banker Curry is not sure that reciprocity
on the whole will be good thing, but he is con-
fdent that Canada is going to try it, any way,
although he doesn t look for any great or posi-.
tive results from it for from five to ten years.
These statements unquestionably reflect Canadian
opinion this international proposal--the en-.
thusiasm for reciprocity is not on that side of
the line, but the people and the government Of
the Dominion have decided to make the expert.

this side of the line SO there is more like.

PARTY NOMINATIONS.

Some of the New York legislatures acts of
omission were quite as commendable as any of
those of commission It refused, for one thing
to accord passage to the bill proposing to sub
stitute for the present system of making party
nominations for public office through party con-
ventions system of nominations directly
through party primary elections Governor Dix
exerted his influence to the utmost to have the
measure enacted, just as Governor Hughes urged
similar action by the last legislature-but the
lawmakers would not have it, although both
the democratic and republican state platforms
called loudly for direct primaries It is simply
a case OF popular sentiment being opposed to
direct primaries and of the lawmakers instead OF
the platforms rejecting popular and party sen
timent The democratic majority at Albany felt
itself bound by party sentiment and not by plat
form pledges Party leaders in New York state
and the people, too, look in vain for any advanA
tages that the direct-primary system has demon
stratea itself to possess in other states where it
has been tested or is in proce of testing
and the trend of popular sentiment is now dis
tlnctly away from the thing tThe hypocrisy of
platforms making" says the Washington Post
has been responsible for so much unwise legis
lation, universally radical in its tendency, that
the blow administered to buncombe at Albany
deserves to be recorded among the notable DO
lltical events of the year More bipartisan leg
lslation along the same line ought to be well
coined, rather than condemned by the section of

OPTIMISM OF THE PRosPEcToR.

1t is an interesting fact that true prospectOr
seldom or never becomes discouraged in his
search for valuable minerals. His optimism is
of the kind that never flags, but holds steadfast
and true to his dying day.
When once man has fairly started upon the
quest for mineral wealth the fascination of the
pursuit is such that his love for it holds through
out life. He is the hunter who never tires
OF engaging In the chase, and who when the
strength of early manhood is gone, loves to
glory in the achievements of the past and is ever
ready to give Of the fruits of his experience
This has been given striking illustration dur
ing the past few months when old-time prospec-
tors by the score have gone into the hills. Men
who had gone to eastern states, men who had re-
tired to the cities for various causes had given
up the pursuit of a golden bonanza for the sake
OF supplying immediate needs have come forth
again and are spending the summer in roaming
the hills. Ever before them is held the hope that
the great mine for which they have sought in
past years may this time be found Optimistic
as ever, and with firm belief in the ultimate at
tainment of their goal they are searching with
the enthusiasm Of youth
Even though the prospector may have struck
1t rich IN his younger days, the fascination of the
pursuit is still as strong as ever, and though
he may have determined to settle down to the
prosaic business of mining the lure of the sum-
mer, the call of the hills, is as a powerful mag
net leading him to try his luck once more
The possibilities are, too, that the proceeds
of one find, the sale Of property, will go into
the development of another property, and with
money gone he will strike into the hills again
with the expectation of finding property that
will respond more quickly to his efforts
Just such example to notice from
the Northwest this week. Making several stakes
and losing them in the development of other
properties. this mans experience of forty years
has not affected his optimism, his faith in the
future. nor has it caused his enthusiasm to wane
Today he is developing silver property that
is declared to be of the best in that section,
and has as well gold placer that is awaiting
It's turn at development.
The optimism of the prospector carries him
over the hard places, and leads him on to the
bonanza that is the goal of each. The call Of
the hills is never ending

THE EAST RESPONDS.

While marked revival has been in progress
in the western mining regions the enthusiasm
of the west has been slower to take effect in the
eastern centers This is but natural. for the
man at distance finds it somewhat difficult to
get the actual touch, the intimate knowledge,
which makes for enthusiasm.
AS time goes on, however, more definite word
Of the important developments going forward in
the mines of the west percoates through to the
man who puts up the money to help in the work
Of developing new properties.
This process has been going on surely and
steadily if slowly, but the result is becoming
evident. One concrete instance noticed within
the past few days is that of proposition which
was started several years ago and carried for
ward its development work vigorously until the
funds first raised were exhausted. Since then
work has been almost at a standstill the stock
holders losing Of their first enthusiasm, and
mayhap becoming somewhat discouraged at not
receiving immediate benefit from the money put
into the ground
Through reports of the awakened interest n
the west these stockholders have again become
interested IN the active development of Their
property, and are providing the funds with
which to complete the work started in years past
Other instances of similar character are com
ing to hand from time to time and those en-
deavorlng to raise money for new enterprises
state that their advances are met with greater
favor. The enthusiasm Of the west meets the
enthusiasm of the east

DEVELOPMENTS OF A WEEK.

Developments of week in the Porcupine dis
trlct, which experienced disastrous a fire only
short time ago, indicate that the work of re-
establishment is going forward steadily and Wig
orously Machinery has already been secured for
some properties and development is ready to pro
ceed at once
Another phase is that big moneyed men are
coming IN with the expectation of being able to
pick up bargains in mining properties or to start
new lines of business. Enthusiasm as to the fu-
ture possibilities of the camp is evident on every
hand.
Prospectors, too, coming back and are
busy restaking their claims and blazing bound
aries in some eases difficulty is experienced
in locating landmarks, but this under the cir
cumstances is to be expected. The point is that
prospectors have not been discouraged by the
fire, but are going out with more determined
spirit than ever.
The fire was but temporary check leading
to greater endeavors for the future

FIRM OF MILLER
& LUX WANTS The
SHELTER ENJOINED

The Pacific Live Stock company
better known in this country as
Miller & Lux, filed an action last
Saturday against the Mason Valley
Mines company asking an injunction
against defendant that said company
be restrained from carrying on or
operating smelter, or from smelt,
ing ore therein or discharging there,
from fumes containing sulphuric
acid, arsenious acid or other nox-
ious gases or substances injurious
70 vegetation; also for temporary
injunction during pendence of ac-
ton, the permanent injunction to
be reached at end cf case.
The complaint sets out the own
ership by plaintiff of various ranch
hands, aggregating 10000 acres in
Mason Valley, and that defendant
N''' w CiNII oilClltI W treat
ores, the fumes of which will de-
stroy growing vegetation and crops
en- the land of plaintiffs; also, that
damages will exceed 100000, and
that the injunction is asked to fore
stall the injuries threatened.
The action does not allege dam
ages at the present time, but the
suit is probably brought to put the
plaintiffs in a certain standing in
court should it be necessary to
bring damage suit after the
smelter is started near Wabuska.
Mr.. Jules Labarthe, superintend-
ent of Construction of the smelter,
state that the present action will
in no way bar the work of con
structlon, as his company is ready
TO put up bonds in any amount to
go ahead with the work. The com
pany has had observations of the
prevailing winds in this section
made for whole year, and it is
found hat 81 per cent of the time
the wind will blow the smoke away
from the valley instead of onto it.
The equipment of the smelter will
also be such that all fumes, gases,
ETC., will be arrested and consum-
ed, so there will be no danger
to vegetation.

to carry out the platform pledge for direct pri-

pledge for ratification of the income-tax amend

chief reason that many of the democrats felt

FRICTION MATCHES MODERN

ented by Another.

Friction matches are q comparative
ly modern invention. They we're first
made by John Walker in England. In
1927. but were rather crude affairs.
He improved them somewhat In 1888
by using phosphorus. The first really
practical friction match was made in
the United States in 1885 by L. c. Al
len OF Springfield. Mass. Before this
time clumsy form Of match was i'm
ported from France. which had to be
dipped into a bottle Of sulphuric acid
before It could be lighted.
This took a great deal Of time and
trouble. and Allen. seeing the neces-
sity for friction matches. set about to
make them. and succeeded. He neg
!ected to patent them. however. and on
finally applying for letters patent
found that a man named Alonzo Phil.
ips. who was q peddler. had discov'
cred through third person the secret
OF making the matches and had al
ready obtained patent. Thus Allen,
though the real inventor. was forced
to become a mere manufacturer under

(making four trains daily in each d.
rection) will be added to the present
service, and the running time will he
reduced two hours. On the same date
the Western Pacific will improve It's
service by the addition OF second
daily train over its line between Salt
Lake City and San Francisco, with
through standard and tourists Sleep
ing cars on both trains between San
Francisco and Chicago In connection
with the Denver and Rio Grande.
The Rio Grande has maintained for

This will be greatly augmented by the
establishment OF the new sleeping car

POWER OF WORD OVER MAN
Calling LKe.Preserver a "BeIt" Caused
the Loss Of Many Lives In 6our.
gogne Disaster.

A vivid Illustration of the power Of
mere words over human beings was
once bro lght to the attention Of French
people by Francisque Sarcey.
After the wreck of the Bourgogne
many passengers were found floating
drowned with life preservers on.
These life preservers were fastened
upon the bodies but round the middle
instead of under the arms. and the
greater weight OF the upper part OF
the body had tipped the head under
water and the person Of course was
inevitably drowned.
Now It appears that the greater
number of the persons SO drowned
were French. The French term for
life preservers 10 ceinture de sauve-
lage. or life saving belt" This word
centure suggests to the mind. In its
moments of disorder and unreadiness
such as o great catastrophe brings.
the idea of putting on q belt. and. a.
n belt is put round the waist and no
where else. the frightened person IN.
stiactively adjusts the life preserver
close about the hips.
The result is that as soon as the
person SO provided falls into the wa
;er. his body tips over. with the heav-
ier part downward. and the head Is
plunged beneath the surface.
The word belt" therefore. was the
cause Of the loss Of many lives In the
Bourgcgne disaster. Sarcey accord
ing!y proposed to counteract the IA
tai effect Of the article. and calling lit
a brassiere. which is q kind Of waist.
ard. by bringing the word bras or
arm to mind. to teach people to put
life preserver on just underneath
the arms.
