ttUli GREAT HIGHWAY. rmM s'i'ljoet is of such vital iuiport mici' the community generally and tlii) prop, rty owners iu tlie valley of lower Fraser, that we feel there is needed for refprring 'i i'tioi), ft question that ouylit ltt u'm le one of the chief planks in coining election for the riding ol WY stmiiister, aud one gn which we must have a decided uwlet standing the candidates for Doui'unui liminrs, that they will do all in their j) to induce the Dominion Government define nud deepen the mu'iel of the Frasjr, and to enter niii tho propoeed plan, if seilde, of rtivertig tue main waters of the upper Fr.mer into Summit Luke. We un derstand that the Chief Engineer of the ('. T. II.

has g'Veu il as his opin ion, that were a channel cut from the Oij heiid of the Fraser at the Summit the Lake, it would carry off the greatc part of the water shed west of iie Rockies that now flows down the. Fraser, and which would reduce the jciglit of that river ten feet. This cut or channel would be pur rrjles in parrying the immeuse bod ies of water that descend from the mountains into Summit Lake, thence into the Mackenzie river, onward thro' a chaiu of lakes and a regiou of swampyaad desolate couutry into the Artie Sea. To carrv out this enterprise we are creditably informed would cost half a million dollars, which at first sight appears a large amount of money to expend, but consider for one moment the immense benefit to be derived from the completion of such an undertaking. Not only would the jlrgd area of the most fertile valley in the Province, a valley second to none, be eafe gnarded from any inundation, but the C.

P. R. woulJ be protected rom any such lot ses as they rnffered from by the flood of '91, which must have cost tli6 Company thousands of dollars. The second point to consider is the defining and deepening of the Chanel of the Fraser river. This should receive the immediate atten ti: of the Dominion Government, and is of such great importance that if neglected year after year, will even tunljy prove so disastrous to all parties interested iu the valley of the Fraser, that we can hardly realize the grave consequences thut would arise, as an extent ive area of tho finest land that might be made double its present value and return a very largo revenue would be lying a dreary waste.

The third juestiou to dwell upon is a matter that comes under the control of our Provincial Government, aud one that so far we regret to 6ay has been en t'rely ignored or opposed by it, aud js the ceasing to grant any leases jut permitting any Companies to en gage iu hydraulic dredging for gold, on any part of river Fra ier or any streams that would affect the same, under the most stringent conditions that all gravel, dredged from tlio river should be returned to the land. We know that the will (he deduced that hydraulic dredging does not fill up and impede the nl water dowu the Fraser, 'hi 1 int we take issue, and refer to th i neighbouring State of J.iiroriiia which was engaged in a law tut with the Hydraulic Dredging ii dd 8. for ten years, eventually 'iijiiing the suit, before they could enforce the act, but unfortunately too lata to repair the gi eat damage done bv the Saeraiueiito river, the blocking nl which by the working of these Ily lrntilic (Jompames ruined some of fie finest fruit producing lands in the (State. Turn again to Australia. There tlie Government passed the very law itHit v'P Ktfe should be operative iu this Proviuco, the compe' ig Ily.lirtiilio Dredging Cos.

to dump the debrid on the shore instead of throw in it into tho bed of the liver again onlv to be WBslied miles below to form inimeuKO sand or gravel bars. The coii iitHiH'lon of these questions is one of very grave character and should not be MgjhUy iai.l on one side, questions thut virtually affecji whole Province more or less: Therefore we contend that Ilia whole matter should he placed in a definite light before the pominion Government, whose bonu den duty it is to carry out the necessary work ou tlie Fiaser river, as also the cutting of the proposed channel, if the latter scheme can be as reported biicces fully accomplished. Our own duty is plain enough. We must not iet the matter rest, but by con tinual agitation get our just claim recognized. We cannot expect the Dominion or Provincial Governments to do anything for us unless we press our chains, and explain to them the gravity of our positiou and the necessity of prompt action iu the matter.

If we remain supine and neglect our opportunities, we will have only ourselves to blame if our future prospects are eventually ruined, and the greater part of this lovely valley which, under forsering cure, would return uutold wealth, abandoned to the wild fowl. The Le Rol Mine. From our Corre pondent, Kosslaiid. May 8 The famous Le Rol mine is situated about ball a mile from town, i i 800 feet up the side of Red Mouniaiu. The buildings around the mlue consist of a boiler bouse aud en gi ne house, in which are the two large boilers, a large engine and air cornpres sor and an engine for running the hoist.

ing gear. The ore is brought up in a large iron bucket which has a capacity of about one too of ore, and is raised from the bottom (450 feet below) in about one minute. The mine is lighted by electricity throughout, and also the other buildings around the mine, which consist of general otlices. sleeping apart meats for the miners and oQieers, the hotel; all the miners board it the mine hotel; aud there is also a store run in nueetion wkh the mine where the men get their supplies. The ore from the mine is taken from the large iron bucket to the sorting house, where it is sorted over, aud when the refuse is taken out it is wheeled out on to the dump.

They have about 5000 tons at present on the dump; aud they are starting on a new compressor plant which will run 40 drills, and when this machinery gets into operation they will have a capacity of 300 tons of ore a day, which, at its present value, will amount to over $10,000 a day. The ore from this mine is improving everyday as they go dowu, and will ere long be one of the richest mines in the world. Mr. V. H.

Harris is superintendent, and Mr. John Moeahan is the manager. The latter gentleman has followed mining for the last 35 years and he claims that the Le Roi is the richest mine he has ever worked in. These two gentlemen are just commencing work on another tain.e called the "Commander," and from surface appearances they expect to have another Le Roi when they hare got as deep a shaft. G.

While the movement for improved highways has not yet accomplished what was expected of it in some sections of the country, the agitation of the question has served to educate the people uct only in relation to the value of good roads, hut also to the moans of preserving serviceable highways when once secured.

It is now generally re cognized that the use of wagons with wide tires is one of the indispensable aids to the maintenance of permanently good roads, and the near future will undoubtedly wituess the practical deser tion of the narrcw tire for all heavy wagons. Colman's Rural World. Annual Loss From Poor Roads. Gen. Roy Stone.

Government engineer in charge of tho department of roads inquiry, said at the National Good Roads conference at Aebury Park last year that there are about 500.000.000 tons of freight LauW over roads every year in the United States, and 60 per cent, of the cos' of doing it was due to bad roads.

Rut when health flags a little, and liberties are taken with the stomach, or the uervous system, a chill is easily takeu, aud according to the weak spot of the individual, assumes the form of a cold or pueumonia, or it may be, iundice.

Of all causes of "cold" probably fatigue is one of the most efficient. A ided man coming home at nighlfroiu along day'a a growing youth losing two hours' sleep over even lug parties two or three liiaes a week, or a young lady heavily "doing the season," young children overfed und with short allowance of sleep, are common instances of the victims of "cold."
