BRITISH COLUMBIA POLITICS
The connection of the British Colum
bia government in the sale of Kaien is
land as a terminus for,the Grand Trunk
Pacific is developing into a scandal. It
has been the topic of several acrimon
ious debates in the provincial parlia
ment at Victoria. The liberals are
making use of the affair for tbe pur
pose of discrediting the administration
of R' chard Mc Bride, the conservative
premier.
The prediction is made openly and
freely that an section will be forced
within a very sh.rt time.
In this connection the liberals are
endeavoring to hare the resul6 of the
recent election at Victoria, whereby
Willtam Tampleman was returned to
parliament by an overwhelming plural
ity, to be construed as a rebuke to the
government. While there are many
indications that a reaction is developing
in Rritish Columbia in favor of the
liberal party, this contention seems far
fetched. Templeman's big vote was
probablv more because of the populari
ty of the candidate and a recognition
of the courtesy to the province by
Laurier in naming him to a place in
tbe Dominion cabinet.
Dr. Young, the member from Atllc,
is making a record in the present ses
sion of the British Columbia legisla
ture that is giving satisfaction to his
constituency. His bill enlarg ing placer
claims has become a law, and other
things which his people favor will
probably follow.
Tom Lawson has turne 1 bis life in
surance proxies over to the committee
of governors and prominent men, who
will vote them at the coming election
of trustees. The committee consists of
Gov. J. A. Johnson, of Minnesota; Gov.
Napoleon Broward, of F'orida; Frank
S. Monnet-, formerly attorney general
of Ohio, and others. It is clamed that
the committee will have a sufficient
number of proxies to control the elec
lion.
Today the United States is devoting
to its annual celebration of St.
Patrick's Da; and paying tribute to its
citizens of Irish birth or ancestry.
Thev are not a small part of tbe popu
lation, either: and they are loyal to the
core.
At Juneau, Wrangell, Ketchikan and I
other towns down the passage have
begun talking municipal t>olities. At
Slcagw&y one would little dream that
an election is lets~_thaa three weeks
away.

Mrs. A. Canavan of 733 Nortbrup

years, owing to kidney comolaint and
b cki-che, I was some days unable to
attend to my household dutus at all.
What I did do was unjer great strain
ai d misery. When, owing to a weak,
'am; and aching back, you are unable
to sit, stand or lie when dizzy spells are
common and you are annoyed with
headache, you naturally think a good
deal of the means at last employed
which gave relief. I used Doan's Kid
ney Pills, taking them according to
directions and I found more relief from
'hem than from all other remedies I
ever took put together. When iu con
versation with any one annoyed with
svmptoms of kidney complaint, I never
