DISSATISFACTION IN QUEBEC.

Uv

Ti s of the Province of Quebec are evideul. Vv DOL ua p y The ! = 6 . eas eve uppermost tn the yerage Gri. mind, is causing the tronbie. } : 7 1; 1 6p t seems thal Francis mangeiler, M. F., 1s

lesirous of becoming Lieutenant Gover- nor of that Province in succession to S'r J. A. Chaplesu, ard it is stated that he

actually has in his possession letters from

the Premier promising him ‘Le position These letters were writen Mr. Lanzgelier about the time of the formatio: of the Laurier-Tarie government. But it seems that affairs have sinve a-sumed a d.ilerert aspect and Sir Wilfrid does not see his way clear to keep his promi-e in this matter any more than

he has kept it in other matters. Mr, Tarte wants Sir J. A. Chaplean re-appointed, and everyone knows that what Mr. Tarte wills the premier must do. The thus hit cff m a Quebec despatch to the Montreal Star:

situation is

“Aliheugh Sir J. A. Chapleau’s term as lieutenant governor of this proviuce does no. expire until December uext, the ques- tion of his probable snecessor is now diseuseed in this city, and the more so since it has been rumored that Hon. F. Langelier, M, P., tor Quebec Ceutre, is not to get the position.

“This news has created an unusual amount of excitement here, due, no doubt, to the fact that Hon. Mrv Langelier was looked upon as the future Occupant of Spencerwood. It appears upon the most reltable autbority that op the 8ih of July, 1896, a few days b fore Sir W. Laurier had formed his cabinet, the premier wrote to Hon PF. Langelier, informing him that owing to the latter’s well-knova legal abilities ne would reserve dim tor a veat on the beneh in this province, and that if on the expiration of the |!eutenan‘- governor’s term atthe end of this yee, ive was not on the bench he would appoiit him in Sir Adolphe’s place. This letter was followed by another on the 11th of July, 1896, written by Sir Wilfrid Laurier

Hon. Chas. Langlier informing the latter that bis cabinet was formed but that he had promised the lieutenant-governor- ship to his brother, and that it was a sacred promise.

“Now it appears that Hon. F. Langelier is going to be left out in the cold, as Cir Wilfrid bas, it appears, informed bim re- cently that he has made otherarrangements, which he would explain to Mr. Lan,eler when he met him.

“This matier is not going to be dropped, avd in a very short time it will probably be known who the lucky party is to be. There is talk here thet if a satisfactory explanation is not given by the premier, an indignation meeting of liberals wili be held in Sir Wilfrid’s constituency, Quebec East. Moreove>, several liberal M. P’s of this district heve visited Quebec lately and are indigrant at the way matters have turned, and from present appearances Sir Wilfrid will havea hard time before he has settled this knotty question.”

A flood of lightis thus let in on the «manner in which the Grits manage affairs. Promises, written and otherwise, regard- ing judicial and other positions have evidently been made right and left in order to keep the party together. Already several of the promises thus made have been kept, and certain patriotic liberals have gone to their reward. But there are others who have not yet been rewarded, and these are chafing under the delay.

GOLD ON THE SURFACE

Fifteen Thousand Dollars to the Ton Witi be Produced by the Swamp Creek Mines,

Seattite, Wash., Oct. 2.—A correspon- dent of the Post Intelligencer sent to the Swamp Creek disirict, near Mount Baker, to investigate the reports of the discoveries of gold quartz which reports stated assayed as high as $10,0.0 to the ton, has returned and in summing up his imvestigatioa says: ‘On August 23 last, Jack Post discovered a ledge of white quartz on Bald Mountain. W hea pieces of this quartz were broken up with a hammer in @ considerable perceut- age of them flakes of : old were seen with an average of about ove color in the place where the fracture was made.

“Post and his associates, Lambert and Van Valkenburg, locsted for themselves three claims on the ledge. Four cross lodes were also discuvered, which were covered by two claims. Selected specimens assayed as high as $1,500 a ton.

“Not one doilars worth of development work has been dove on a claim in the dis- trict, and not a siogle drill has been struck in it, and not a shot fired.

“The actual value of the quartz ledge is a matter which can only be determined by actual development work and by athorough mill test ef rock from all the exposed portion of the ledgea.”

THE SULTAN SIZED UP. What a Continental Traveller Has to Say About the Sick Maun,

Teroyxt >, Oct. 2.— Messrs. J.R avon, of Constantinople, and A. Biaiz, cf Paris, two Frenchmen who have travell-d in every part of Europe, arrived at the Walker Houve this morning on their way to New York. Mr. Bayan has i:ved for some length of time in Constaniinop!>and is conversant with the condition of «tt ira in that Oriental City. He was (here during the Armevian massacre of some months ago, but, in his own parlance, kept away from them as much as possible. The Turks,however, he considers to blame, though it was an open secret that the Armenians both in Constantinople and Armenia, were furnish with arms by Russia which country a'so intrigued to Support secvet societie. with th. object of working against the Sultan. The latter, Mr. Bayan thinks a very clever man, a genius, in fact. but an evilone. He is a wonderful worker, and it is by his power and influence alone that the young Turkish parly are prevented froia having adopted the reforms which they advocated. Mr. Bayan also considers that there ia not the least doubt that that the Sultan is at the bottom of the disturbances iz North Hindostan.

When the Dunkards of Ludiana recently made a visit to a Kanses town, a telegram was sent apprising the Mayor of the excursion, It read: “Tlaree carloads of drunkards will arrive in the morning.
