Now, Old Timer, 'on the square' didn't you get out of bed on the wrong side the morning of the day you penned your epistle? Or did you wander out doors in the dark in your seeks and stub your toe, or did you burn you mush, or maybe you slipped and fell into the flume?

Jfr^^^S* To the Editor: Sir.���Referring to your two articles on "Jumping" I had hoped in ' a subsequent issue to see somewhat oi a modification of the extremely partisan attitude you have seen tit to take. I read carefully the letter of Mr. TL D. Fetlierstonhaugh which to my mind was very fair aud manly. As pointed out by .him, .there are two sides to all questions, and in view of that was sorry to lead the comment made thereon. There are two sides to every question, and as to whether the company on McKee creek have or have not a good title to the ground is hardly within the province ol a .paper to say. Don't take the say so of any Tom, Dick, or Harry, on either side, iind out ,the facts and dish them up to your subscribers as news���without comment--always remembering that every camp has its sea lawyers, its gossips, maligners, know-alls, aud 3iars; aud poor Atlin more than its share of the scurvy crew. When the issues have beer, settled through the proper channels, and if one side has no right to step in, or the other side has been lax, laythe blame at the proper door and lay it on without fear or prejudice. Don't forget���an attack on the bona fides, personal or financial standing of any one interested, will 1 not effect in the minutest degree the legal status of the titles, aud besides is unseemly. Tf the titles are good at-will not make them better, and if bad���does it look good? And are the locators 'jumpers?' The sooner individuals���it mat- teis not their social or other standing--learn that the mining laws have to lie complied with and wis! be carried out, the better for all concerned, whether corporations, individuals or absentee principals. The placer laws are good and plain and fair! and if carried out by individuals and officials alike, all interests will lie safe aud titles protected. There is a saying, 'never send a boy to do a man's work,' also, tliat 'a knave may. lake a two-spot, but a king can always beat it.' FAIR PLAY.
