ATTACK ON COL. DAVIS

To Rate si 'he Empire stated that
133 men had boon hurriedly rushed

Bcema to Alderman Pattullo a
li*-.it-ularl\ uii-vurrantabh assertion. As

iwi-r rightly and r, asonably.
In ri ply Alderman Newton said that
B* had heard than wen- no employee-*

|ot th* eni|ilnymeni of men before the

|timist.       "*
But fUdwman  Pattullo pointed out
the Empire's implications regarding
the city engiroer wen- much mor.
fj.*rious. Had there been any truth in
tht m Aldtrman Pattullo d, dared hi
would himself drmnnd the resignation
of the city engineer. But the insinuation that Colon. 1 Davis would lend
himself to using his department for
elections ring purposts was a mean
attack upon one who from his position
was unable to come out in self deft nee.
Because there Were some 40 men set
to work inrly in January to do culvert
work, etc., Aldciman Newton got seeing
a nigger in the fence. "Thnt nigger,"
said Aid* rman Pattullo "has betn setn
on the fence for the last six months."
As a matter of fact il was the n.-w
council who has raised the staff to 133.
Replying to this Alderman Newton
declared that if then- was any difficulty over th? attitude of the press a
certain gentleman who had taken exception to him ovtr the telephone
franchise, was himself to blame foi it.
"I have very serious misgivings," said
Alderman N'-wton regarding tht appointment of c.rtain men on th** city
pay roll. But wo are all liabl* to mak.
mistakes. The trouble is that too
much power is relogau-d to the city
officials, antl I int, nil to do all I can to
reduce this power with my voic*.. either
by my pen or���by any other means can
be made to exercise this influence."

"Delinquents ot Society" was thv
title of an address delivered to the
Raptist Church Young Men's Club last
night by the Rev. Mr. McLeod. Thc
address was mainly an introduction to
the subject of criminal sociology which
he intends to discuss wi.h tht: club at
later dales. Tht firsl quistion to be
nnswered was who was the criminal?
Tht criminal waa the abnormal man
and the starting |>oint for th.ir study
must be a conception of the normal
man and of normal social relations.
In dealing with men and women hc

recognise certain manifestations of men-
tnl action and habit as normal while
othirs struck the shrewd observer as
eccentric and \*i ,-uliar in all the varying

imbecility or mania. After treating
elaborately of the phasis of criminology,

revenue this year would be over $2,-
500,000.
During ihe summer two experts will
go over the country lying be.ween Prince
Ruper, and Hazelton to study the soil,
precipitation and climate, with a view
to determining which variety of treea,
cereals, and crops generally, could bt
most successfully cultivated in that
territory.
He also announced the re-adjustrm n,
of taxa ion throughout the Province
by means of a commission. Ht- was
looking for a general reduoion.
Ho placed the products of the variou.'
Industrie*! of tht Province for ihe past

City Engineer Will Inveatigate Civic
Methoda Down Below
Permission has been granted by the
city council to Colonel Davis, city engineer, to go down to Victoria to obtain
information regarding various details
of city work which can b.��st be seen in
actual operation. A city scavenging
system for Prince Rupert is one of th,-
matter' to be enquired about. Colon?l
Davis will probably have by the Prince
Gaorgc on Thursday and may b> absent
for a week or two.
The claim for $700 damag.:-. press, d
against lhe city council by L. Patmore
nn behalf of a man namtd Olscit who
fell into a sewer cut and broke his ankle
is not recognised by the city. Thi
sewer was a government contract. In
discussing the matter last night Aldtrman Hilditch said: "It is up to th>*
citizens to take care of them.-elv.s
when the city is in its proaont slat,
under construction." Reasonable cartas far as may be is taken but to guard
every dang.rpoint is impossible."
CITY   SOLICITORS'   DISCHARGE
Claim  Entered   for   Month'a   Salary
in   Lieu   of  Notice
MOOT!. Williams & Manson have
claimed from the city council one full
month's salary as city solicitors on tha
ground that their services were dispensed with without the month's notice
to which they were entitled when the
new council got busy with the broom.
Alderman Hilditch believes that ihe
Municipal Clauses Act gives the city
power to fire any employee without
notice; but in the minutes dealing wilh
the appointment of these the firsl city
solicitors for Prince Rupert one month's
notice before their services could be
dispensed with is expressly stipulated
for.
The finance committee had recommended that Messrs. Williams & Man-
son be paid up to the end of January,
but last night's council decided to refer
the matter back to the committee for
further investigation.

The Knack of Buying
Tho old woman who bought a sentry-
box because it might come in useful
some time had not even the excuse of
the man who snuppe-d up a bargain
coflin-plate. His thrifty soul did not
flinch before the realization that some
day ho would require it- though most
of us prefer to leave such melancholy
accommodations to the good offices of
the undertaker, whoever he happens to
be.
The amount of money that people
fritter away on things they can do
without very well is astonishing; -and
the first aid to frittering is thu bargain
counter. Every bargain counter shouid
be- approached, as the Greeks used to
say, with even mind. lis contents
should be surveyed sanely and coldbloodedly, even as one looks u|x>n a new
relation, and with no regard to the
placard proclaiming a slaughter in price
from $4.60 to $2.98.
As business and philanthropy do not
go hand in hand, some good reason
usually lurks behind the sweeping sacrifice. The article may be shopworn,
out of date, or of poor color, or there
may be faults in the make or the material
���there may be many reasons'. A standard article commands its market price
at any time, and is the most satisfactory
in the long run.
Thc most objectionable stuff found
on bargain counters is tawdry finery-
soiled chiffon ha's trimmed with lly-
spee-ked cotton roses, neckwear that has
lost its freshness and will not wash,
tarnished scarves and passementeries,
gaudy belts and llashy hair ornaments,
spotted and fancy gloves of unsaleable
blues and yellows and terracottas, exaggerated and out of daio veils, etc.,
etc., etc.���-all pitfalls fur the unwary-
first aid to the friu.rir.
If one's income is limited (and, indeed, in uny case), it is good a idea to
ask on.self before taking the final
plunge at a bargain counter some such
iearthing question as, "Do 1 really
need this?"   "Is it worth that much to
The Aeroplane Treatment
The long flight of M. Farman has
suggested to Dr. Edouard Toulouse the
utilization of aviation in the cure ol
diseases.   He says:
"The physician has here a new-
physical agent, which may bc called
altitude. Without exciting the muscular action, it stimulates tho heart
functions and modifies the rhythm of
respiration by reason of thc rarefication
of the atmosphere.
"People with nervous or cardiac affections might well take to this passive species of gymnastics, so to apeak.
Better still, ill persons can find in aero
plane flight perfect sunshine, pure air,
and thc exhilarating calmness which
even Egypt and the Rivera cannot
afford.
"Light at great elevations has peculiar qualnies. It is richer in the ultraviolet rays than at the sea level. The
uhraviolct rays have an intense antibacterial effect. The coolness of the
upper air may operate also as a tonic,
lis purity is far gr.a.er than at ordinary
levels."
Dr. Toulouse predicts that the airship will play a large- role in the therapeutics of the future.

Amateur Champion Disqualified���
Carl Morris Not a White Hope so
Much aa a Red Hope -Mother
Waa Cherokee.
New York, Feb. 11. Warren Harbour, champion heavyweight, who is a
society pet and h;i", a millionaire papa,
is tho latest "whito man's hope," or is
s,,on to be. Barbour admit ted here today that he ia likely to enter the professional miti weiltleis' ranks, as a result
of a suspension against him by tho
American Athletic Union following a
fight with John Garr tson. I:-, the Gar-
retaon battle Barbour put out the
skvp product r in the firs*,, round. He
Junks tha if h* could hang a similar
wallop on Johnson ho could win from

ihe amateur c own.
Morria'n Antecedenta
Carl Morris, ihe huge Oklnhoman
touied as the grandest young elephant
of many s aaons, is an Indian, and,
thrfori-, shouldn't count as a "white
ma 's i ope" at all. When Morris
w a visiiing the Kan; as Ci y newspapers
a few days ago a scribe cha red to comment on the young giant's high cheekbones and dark complexion. Morris
explained that he came by these features
naturally, as his mother was a Ch. rok. e
Indian of Oklahoma. His fat'er i an
eastern man, said to be part Yankee
and part Gil-man. Morris is probably,
considering the mixed blood of the
CboTOkoe , 90 per cent whiic man, but
hc counts as an ndian under tribal law
and under the rules by which ihe gov-
.rnment gives allotment.', to the ab-
ori ines.

The Work of the "Patronage Committee"
The one bright spot at last night's council meeting was tho protest made by
Alderman Hilditch against ihe Optimist's criticisms. The point was not w.ll
taken, ii was not genmane to the issue,cheOpumist's words were nol even correctly
quoted, but tin incident was chirring nevertheless.
The matter arosi* over the action of Aldirman Newton's eolleagu?s in settling
the Empire'.- account for pn-int-orporiition printing which ihe la-t council rofused
to pay alleging ihat the prices charged Wire exorbitant. Even Alderman Newton's
colleagues admitted that there was no hope of their valiant friend being able to
collect the account in the courts, and used this amazing circumstance as a ground
for taking the matter away from ihe court, and paying Alderman Newton's bill
in full.
The Optimist in comnien,ing on the matter said, -'To make a payment of
$250 to one of their own number, on an Be ount which they admit cannot stand
in a couu of law, sounds perilously like malfeasance of ollice." Il was this statement which aroused Alderman Hilditch's ire. His protestations are encouraging.
It is a bad thing when a man's publie conscience gets calloused.
Bu, now that ihe Council with the exception of Alderman Pattullo has agreed
to withdraw its defence to Alderman Newton's action, in the face of legal advice,
and in ihe clearly expressed knowledge thai thc account was not collectable at
law without large deductions, the Optimist can only repeal, "To make a payment
of $250 to one of iheir own number, on an account which they admit cannot stand
in a court of law, sounds perilously like malfeasance of oflice." The council ought
not to hand out public money to their friends under such circumstances.
The Opiimist is reluctant to touch on these matters, but it is a duty not to
be shirked. The next item of business after passing thu Empire's account last
night was a rei-uist from the Empress and Majestic theatres for a lowering of
their license fits from $200 to $100. It is no secret thai the theatre interests are
virtually vested in Alderman Smith and Kirkpatrick. This indeed was admitted.
But Alderman NuWtOn, after having been helped to $250 most of which it was
admitted he had no legal claim to���promptly turned in to go one better. Ho had
heard that tht theatre licenae fee in Vancouver was $60, so he projiosid that the
city clerk write and find out. If ii proved to be $60, then he moved lhat the Empress and Majestic licenses he reduced to $60. The argument for high licens. that
Prince Rupert has but two houses to ihe fifty or more of Vancouvir, he inverted
and asked for a reduction "because there are only two of them." To thc onlooker
it Certainly looked like a game of "You scratch my back, and I'll scratch yours."
Th.: matter was emphasised by the refifcal of the council to make a grant to
the B. C. Anli-TuberculoBis Society- an institution that is doing a noble work���
on the ground that tht, council had no money.
After donating $250 to Alderman Newton, proposing to rebate cither $200 or
$280 to Alderman Smith's and Alderman Kirkpairick's companies, they turn
round and plead that they cannot send $25 or $50 to the Anti-Tuberculosis Society.
In informing the council thai iheir actions in regard to the distribution of
patronage and in looking after one another's intt rests do not impress the public
favorably, ihe Optimist is doing a service to the council as well as to the public.
Why not let ihe picayune matters of pationage alone and lake up some of
thc real issues that confrom lhe city?

Endorse  Reciprocity
"It has boon hnsiily assumed thai tha
agricultural status of thu West would
align themselves against tbt agreement on ihu ground that it sacrificed
agricultural duties. But lhat presumption seems to have been premature. Kansas is a typical agricultural
state, and is alt>o 'insurgent.' But to
judge from the comment of 'The Topeka
Capital" on the Canadian agreement,
Kansas is not going lo oppose racipro-
city because of its supposed threat to
the farming interest. 'The Capital'
said last Saturday:
"As the opening wedge to more
lilxral general trade relations thc administration has honored itself by its
persistent efforts resulting in this agreement, now subject to tho action of
Congress. If that action is favorable,
the Taft administration in establishing
reciprocity with Canada will have performed an act of farsighted statesmanship and an achievement of policy which
will be historic.
"The reciprocity agreement is attracting widespread support because it is
truly national in purpose and aims ai
results beneficial to the whole country."

COAL NOTICE
Philadelphia  Ledger  on   the   Reciprocity Treaty
We think that this country owes
an especial debt of gratitude to William
H. Taft for his energetic, statesmanlike
advocacy of immediate reciprocity with
Canada. Tho President will perform
two great services if he shall remain
unalterably firm in forcing this grea'
measure through Congn-ss. The first
service will be lhat to thc trade, commerce and industry of the republic, and
to the consumed of the country. . . .
The next great service will be a political
service, in that the debate on thiv
measure is about to lay bare the preposterous cunt and humbug that have
been sustained for some time by tha
cohorts of hypocrisy. ... If tho
insurgents, after all their professions,
shall now desert the cause of the people,
tiny will have nothing bui iheir hollow
profusions with which to confront the
real reformers and statesmen like Tafl.

Cheaper in the Long Run
The finance committee have recommended the payment of $1000 to Mr.
E. Taylor, the solicitor, who claimed
$2,000 for services rendered in connection wilh the incorporation. It la understood that Mayor Manson has advised
the payment of this amount rather than
contest the total sum charged in th:*
law courts.
The best promise of Prince Rupert
lies in the faith of her business men;
and it is a valid promisi because the
faiih is above suspicion. The enterprise of the business men is not to bc
confounded wiih ihu speculation of
the stock gambler; the former is th,1
courage of honest industry anticipating
the demands of a growing community,
the lauer a bird of prey sucking ihe life
blood out of the earth. It is therefon
wiih a high degree of pleasure and pride
that Prince Rupert welcomes the inauguration of a new or the extension
of an oltl business concern.
An Imposing Structure
One of the most recant enterprises
! to gladden the eyes of the citizens of
Prince Rupert is the great new store
and warehouse iructed on First avenue
wiih its "ulterior" facing the bay, for
J. Piurcy, Morris Co., wholesale dry
goods and clothing. It is an imposing
structure, modern, commodious, utilitarian, and one to be proud of. It is
ranged alongside of the great block
erected by the Kelly-Douglas firm of
Vancouver and with it shares the honor
of being one of the largest warehouses
in the city. It is split in two, Messrs.
Stewart & Mobley occupying one portion, with lhe balance of floor space in
favor of Piercy-Morris on account of
the lay of the land.
Entry First Avenue
I    The main entrance is by First avenue,
* where the fifth, or top floor, meets the
i grade of the street.    The rear of th.
! building is in line with the G. T. P.
tracks running north of Center street,
j and in order to avoid any alterations
in the future, car.' has been taken to
: have the basement floor on the level
; of the cars.  Thu advantage of this course
may not bc very apparent in the mean-
i time as the intervening space between
the line and thu warehouse is not built
' in but wilh an image of lhe completed
'. wharf in one's mind it is easy to under-
j Stand the value of the point.
Clerical Department
Besides  being  used  for  the  display
j part  of the   house  the  top  floor  will
' accommodate  the   clerical   department
! for  which   branch  of  the  business  a
| generous portion haa be^n clipped off
and  raised   a  semi-flat  higher.    It  is

performed. The scenic via*** over the
harbor from this part of the house is
entrancing. Whether it will inspir
th�� staff to juggle batter with numerals
is a question that remains to be seen
but it is beautiful,
Sound and Solid
With the exception of the flooring,
tho window sashes and doors the whole
structure is built of Giorgetown lumber. An 0,is elevator wiih a carrying
capacity of one ton will conwy all the
shipments from the floors abova to thi
basement where ii will be an caiy
mattir either to have them pui aboard
the steamer, or aboard the trains whin
th.> line is operating for that purpose.
Business Expansion
The now season is just about to
commence and the firm is laying in a
big stock of dry goods. It il their firm
belief that bu-in.ss will be three tim?s
gnater during the incoming season
than it was lasl season. Their only
regret is that the means of transportation will not have increased to accommodate thc expansion. For the
shipment of their goods up the river
to Hazelton and other places they have
to rely on thru- river boats; and last
year's traffic was sufficieni to strain
them to the utmost. By next summer,
however, it is hop.-d that ihe line will
be running as far as Hazehon and that
will facilitate the business of Messrs.
PLrcy-Morris a great deal.
Commendable Enterprise
They are a firm thoroughly conversant
with the conditions of trade in this part
of the country and that has given them
a great advantage over their com-
po'iiors. For their cntorpris-> in n-jen-
ing up a new and magnificent store th.iy
(Lserve all the commendation that is
coming to them for while it will certainly
benefit themselves it will give an added
distinction to the city, and through that
medium to the citizens.
Just back from Stewart, Mr. Samuul
Harrison brings word that what is dc-
soribed by Mine Manager Elmundorf as
one of the largest sheets of ore yet discovered in the Portland Canal mine was
Biruck the other day in No. 3 tunnel.
The face is in five and half feet of solid
oa*. and theru aru 150 feet of backs.
Dri Is aru now working i a ihree-foot
face of solid ore, and a total of twelve
test a day is being put out by thu minu.
Mr. Harrison also mentions tl at tho
