" Premier McBridc now bus a fair ,, working majority in the House to buppoit liim, aud it remains to be seen what use, he will make of it. Tlie Ledger has always maintained that Mi. McBride showed a lack ot the real quality which goes to the make-up of a statesman when be ac- 'ccptcjl tlie' responsibilities of government" under the circumstances prevailing "at the time ,1k* accepted' the call from the Lieutenant-Governor, and that he emphasized that luck of ,ical statesmanship' when'be continued ■ u>" play at government with such hacking a.s he "secured at the elections some liuee years* ago. Now conditions have so changed ' that l.e fmds himself in a position to vtaily ■ govern with a majority of the ,ni;-inbew_ .' belonging to the party - nhich he leads, at,his. back, and' be. will, for tlie first time, find himself in a really responsible position,* the duties oi which'he will have to meet with'no possibility of shifting. He,, has magnificent ,. opportunities , before liim. rNo t\;rovince in this Dominion presents the momentuous. problems of. government which await •solution in British Columbia.-* The vast domain- which still, re- ' mains to be looked after and • safe- - ' ' .i ■ guarded in-the interest of its owners, the public,..will furnish ..'ample scope for', the, ability of 'the most,able 111,111 lie can call to the position ot ■ chiei'cijiuniissioncr'of lands. It has' beeii" through the incapacity of those who..-lia.vb been allowed,' "to• blunder llirougli^that department , that this proiinee - has bean robbed of -more thrin enough to* square oft the entire debt now saddled upon us as a con- saquciKC. of such blundering. Not another acre of timber should be allowed to" pass Irom the Crown ., i';lo llie hnn'ls of private parties-' without the payment of its value into the.' treasury. British Columbia has - the bright, and shining example ol'Ontario ,before her as to timber, and there is no excuse for /delaying te-tr /.mi rl^.f llin_,ar*!'»lir*sf\mi r\{. 4liq*.- • well-tried system to our own timber lands, __ The department of" public works , should be divorced from the lands de- partinent, and the minister of lauds allowed to occupy hi j whole time in' organizing his department anew. In Eastern British Columbia abuses ' have heeu. allowed to creep into *the industrial conditions which would be ih ' harmony ', with conditions ' i„ > where else outside of.Sibcria.,*, Corporations which have" received large tracts of the .public domain •..■ill-nut anv 'return are allowed to make use of their gifts to circumvent the truck' act and to perpetuate a state of petty tyrany whicli is dnily becoming more nnd more irksome and unbearable. •" One little amendment to the truck i".'t would sweep'into oblivion these odious .conditions and quadruple the revenue derived irom licenses, etc., now realised by the province from a trade tliat has been monopolised by these recipients of the bounty of a unost, gpncrotis, not 'to say prbfljWtc,- people. If,Hon. Mr.,McBride, with his substantial majority, rircs to the .opportunities awaiting him upon nl- inost every hand to legislate for the common people ns against those who have proven that tho greater the favors' shown them the greater will heroine their appetite for monopoly and graft, he will have earned n most enviable., reputation ns'a constructive •.talesman, As wo said nf the beginning of Ins- article, no mnn or government has ever had such opportunities lying before them to do good to the people of a province ns now lies before the ptescnt government nt Victoria, With her iiiouiilniiis of ore and toiil, her vast forc.sKi of limber, her great possibilities' for farming, grazing uiul fruit growing, British Columbia, with wise iidiftlnlstratioii of lur nflalrs, will be in reality the grandest province amidst a collcc- of grand provinces, The opportuuitv lies before Mr. Mcllrlilu nnd his associates. Mny tho Lord and iliu Jiii'inherc of the new Nnu.su help ,"im to embrace it. thousands cf dollars during tlie lasl two years because 'of■•"-.the., ipcapacitj;" or indisposition „of the officials, both" city and provincial^,-to see that 'tho' laws- of the land-are respected. A tew people who get a rake-ofl irom the law-breaking" process, de- feud their actions'by saying Uiat--an open town brings money. &_ ' Will; these wise ones kindly inform the public who gets the money'which comes to .this town because of -such neglect as ■ to law and ; its'-, enforcement? " ,-* <* ; ' ' ., They keep _ discreetly , silent as to the thousands' of dollars that have' one "glimmering * because,' of law breaking in this cily 'and do all iii' their power to' keep out'of the press' details' of transactions which „liave brought iuin to families and ..diverted thousands of dollars from a legitimate to illegitimate? uses. The people of Fernie' need not con- solo themselves with, the erroneous idea" that money which is paid for worse than nothing' will benefit a umimuiiily which allows such .business to be practiced with impunity. Iiveiy dollar that goes' ' for, nothing, tosls somebody just that much, and the vice .that impels men lo rart with their money in that way is not only .i cuise to its victim, but to the community at large: The Ledger is very well aware tliat 'in onlci to execute law, public .sentiment is necessary, and judging from the cfleet of the partiality shown by the highest authority in our city in dealing with this evil, a very few more jolts of the same kind will do more towards creating, that, necessary sentiment-cthan dozens of 'tern-' pcraiice lectures. It was ever ' thus! Give a law breaker rope" and he will always do the lest.: The law against gambling has never ,' been enforced \v:th any degree* of vigor., A few tinhorn gamblers have been made "scape goats" and fined," but-, the. places where these fellows did their work were allowed to keep "on breaking the law until they have concluded, that they aic a law unto themselves, and bcg&ii to dictate to the powers . .'.hat be (lord pity the powers) as to who should be allowed to do the law bieakiiig for'the town. ' , " They must have a" monopoly of that business, and woe be, to the' fpoliceman who has a suflicient sense of fair play "in his make-up "to rebel. The goose that lays the goldcn^egg is generally killed by. the man' who gels the egg.! because it is- not a double-yoked article, and 'the people in Fernie ■ .who"*-* have kicked up this little row-.will soouci* or later'arrive at the._coiiclusion_Ltli'at tli'pyLlmvp_ AMD 19 killed the goose' and'broken the egg . ; 6-^ •" DON'T .QUIBBLE. ''The developments iu city ■ police af- '.airs do not add credit" to the Mayor for his action as time passes. His statement in the, last week's Ledger was not satisfactory and did not dispell the public discontent over the matter. The Ledger asked tlie" Mayor" explicitly if heiiad interfcrrcd 'with the i'oliceju the prosecution of the Fernie Hotel case, and his answer was that he had not; that he had only "advised postponement of action."' In his statement, to tlie Free Press, he answers a question as to whether he told Chief Walker not to'push the prosecution. He answered as follows; ' "To a certain extent tlmt is true, Mr. Walker volunteered to accept the responsibility and carry 'it over my head., I sold nol Whatever responsibility there is I shall not shirk in as- Miming myself, but as you have asked my ndvlcein the matter, my ' ad- nce is to wait until .the commission is appointed and take action in " the mailer when you will receive your Instructions." Why Mayor Iloimcll should refuse'to make such an admission to the Ledger'is a matter which concerns him '| a n udi _.rentei 'extent tli-m ji d v the Ledger, inasmuch as he now stands charged with the exercise of official favoritism in a most offensive form, The Ledger will treat the Mayor with perfect fairness, and If lie returns unfair treatment he is the individual who will stiller, Chief Walker was also asked by the Ledger for a statement' of „lil« side of,tin. case, but declined io do mi last week, on the ground that hu was not prepared to do so.

Title | The Fernie Ledger |
Publisher | Fernie, B.C. : D. V. Mott |
Date Issued | 1907-02-16 |
Description | The Nakusp Ledge was published in Nakusp, in the Central Kootenay region of southeastern British Columbia, from October 1893 to December 1894. The paper was subsequently published as the Ledge both in New Denver, from December 1894 to December 1904, and in Fernie, from January to August 1905. The Ledge was published by Robert Thornton Lowery, a prolific newspaper publisher, editor, and printer who was also widely acclaimed for his skill as a writer. After moving to Fernie, the paper continued to be published under variant titles, including the Fernie Ledger and the District Ledger, from August 1905 to August 1919. |
