M Good Music and Refreshments Gents’ Tiekets 81,00 Admitting Ladies MANY MINING MEN COMING THIS SUMMER Will Be Banner Year for Mining Development All Over This Wide District. It is reported on good author- ity that not only several hundred of the most prominent geologists in the world visit Northern Brit- ish Columbia this summer, but there is every likelihood that the various mining camps of this section will be closely examined by mining engineers on behalf of strong corporations. In every case the visiting imen will strike Prince Rupert, whence they will radiate to the Portland Canal district, Hazelton, Groundhog, Atlin and the Yukon. Now that the Northern British Columbia Industrial and Agri- cultural Association has taken in hand the matter of properly displaying samples from the var. ious mines in the north, it is ex- pected that keener interest than ever before will be manifested in the development of the various camps. It seems as if 1913 will be the banner year for this reg- ion, as the quiet conditions pre- vailing in the southern cities will cause the speculation and in- vesting public to turn their at- tention to the natural resources of the country, chief among which are the minerals. The re- vival in mining has already com- . menced and should reach con- siderable dimensions this vear. —Portiand Canal Miner.

Brewster was last night chosen Liberal leader in British Colum- bia. Before the convention closed resolutions were passed con- demning Premier Borden for fav- oring Japan regarding immigra- tion and against the Provincial government in being too liberal to the Canadian Northern Rail- way. The government's policy re- garding Indian lands was cen- sured; segregation of vice was opposed; land registry system eriti¢ized as constituting a mené ace to business; government blamed for allowing banks to charge high interest through af¢ filiated trust companies. It was 4:30 p. m. that Mr. 8. 8. Taylor, K. C., introduced a reso- lution that a leader be chosen by the convention for the Liberal party in British Columbia. An effort was made to avoid this issue, but the more radical element of the convention held the day and the Taylor motion was forced before the gathering. Mr. Maxwell Smith suggested that the president of this asso- ciation be the recognized leader of thé party in British Columbia. This and other plans were de- bated for an hour and the meet- ing then adjourned until the Much of the time at the coun- cil meeting last’ night was taken up in the reading of the minutes of the previous special meetings, which contained the bylaws, reso- lutions, telegrams and so forth incidental to the authority given to Mayor Pattullo to proceed to dispose of the treasury certifi- eates and debentures. On the motion that the minutes be ap- proved as read Alderman Kerr asked in regard to the resolution if the mayor could proceed un- der it to aceept any price and any terms he saw fit without re- ferring the matter to the couneil at all. Acting Mayor Naden said that was the resolution. Alderman MeCaffery said the resolution was passed and was of the same foree whether Alder- man Kerr happened to be present or not. Alderman Dybhavn said Mr. Pattullo had himself stated that if he got an offer he would re- port it to the ecouncil. The acting mayor said ‘an amendment to the motion to ap- prove the minutes would be in order, to which Alderman Kerr replied that, not being present at the Saturday evening meeting, he had merely asked for infor- mation, when the city clerk pointed out that the alderman voted for the resolution at the Wednesday evening meeting. The minutes were then approved, An application to place an electric sign over the store of Bryant Company, Ltd., with a recommendation from the super- intendent of lighting and the counmittee on lighting in its faver Alderman Kerr moved the adoption of the report but saw no reason for the formality of bringing such small matters before the couneil. He thought if the committee, the city engi- neer and the city electrician passed upon such applications that sheuld be sufficient The acting mayor agreed with the alderman, but said that all such matters must come before was read, CLOSE OF THE ANNUAL LIBERAL CONVENTION AT REVELSTOKE evening, when the question of leadership was taken up with even greater vehemence. Mr. Taylor whilst assuring the convention of his uwnwilling- ness to tackle the leadership job himself, pressed his motion and found inereasing support. _ Mr. John Oliver, in the course of a speech, claimed the leader- ship as vested in himself, but stated that he now resigned the position. He favored Mr. Max- well Smith's stand on the matter and coneluded: “Surely to goodness, in the brains of the candidates there will be enough sense to enable them to decided whether they want a leader before or after an election.” The convention wrestled with the problem of whether to ap- point a leader and the difficulty in selecting a suitable man until 10 p. m., when an adjournment was ordered for two hours. After the adjournment of one and a half hours, during which a smoking concert was given in Convention Hall, the leadership debate was resumed at 11:30 o'clock. Praeti¢ally all the platform speakers opposed the motion, | (Continued on Page 4.) ANOTHER ELECTRIC SIGN TO ILLUMINATE THE SIDEWALKS CITY COUNCIL APPROVES.
