Mr. George .Sinclair brought word to town Wednesday noon that Mr. Ed. Ridd had been hurt, by a tree falling on him, in the .woods at Tory Inlet. Mr. Sinclair had a most trying time getting to Atlin. The injured man was carried to the steamer Blair Athol, steam gotten up and she was under way in a short time. Unfortunately ice was encountered. An attempt wasmade to go around the south of Goat island, with the same result. The ice made faster than it could be cut. Mr. Sinclair and Mr. Jones started to walk to Taku, calling, on the way, at McKenzie and Conroy's camp, but the boys had left Monday morning. ' ��� Continuing their journey they reached the Atlintoo river about dusk Tuesday afternoon. Building a fire they managed to at-, tract the attention of Fred Wrong and Bob Pelton. These gentlemen tride to cross the river but only succeeded iu getting to the island. They then put their boat on a sleigh and dragged it to Atlin lake'. Here they found it too rough and in the dark could not get Mr. Sinclair's whereabouts. Right here it seems but fair to Wrong and Pelton, to say .there must have been a misunderstanding, or they would hardly have allowed Mr. Sinclair to remain in the woods all night, as he did, expecting, them to make another attempt in the morning. Mr. Jones in the meantime had started back to the scene of the accident, to relieve Mr. Johnston Woods, who had been left to look after Mr. Ridd. Wednesday morning Mr. Sinclair signalled Taku Jack, who happened to be iu camp nearby, aud was brought by him over to Atlin. As quickly as arrangements could be made Dr. Young, Captain Bragg, Dan McKenzie and Billy Conroy left to render assistance. A dense fog hung over the lake aud a biting north wind was blowing. They left Atlin at two o'clock and reached the ice in Tory inlet in less than torty-five minutes. From there they had to 'mush' on the ice and along the shore of Goat island to where the steamer lay. Mr. Ridd was placed upon a sleigh and taken back to the sail boat. After four hours hard rowing they made McKenzie and Conroy's camp. Here^ the)' had something to eat and looked after the comfort of'Mr. Ridd, placing hot water bottles around him to keep him warm while crossing the lake. A head wind had to be bucked and the fog was so thick at times they could not see a boat's length ahead,' added to this the thermometer registered somewhere about 20 below zero. Atliu was reached at 11.30. The return journey occupied over seven hours. A number of citizens were iu readiness with a stretcher and sled, Mr. Ridd was immediately taken to the hospital. The captaiu aud ctew enjoyed a warm and substantial meal at Mrs. Mitchell's, thanks to the thoughtlnlness of Mr. Rcssclli. At the present time Mr. Ridd is resting as'.easily as can be expected. His injuries are-of a serious nature, but as yet no alarming symptoms have appeared. The' right hand had to be amputated. The shoulder bones are badly broken and some ribs on the right side broken. Local Events. A. J. Burnside, of the Bank of Commerce staff, left for the outside the beginning of the week. Dan McKenzie and Billy Conroy . left yesterday for their camp across the lake, after a week's visit. Charley Baker and Dick Smail, of-Spruce, were in town this week. Charley intends taking a trip outside as soon'as the ice makes. The Rev. A. M. Ross leaves next week for a trip to home'and old acquaintances iu Manitoba and Ontario. When he leaves he bids farewell to his bachelor quarters. G. S. Cummings and Jim Stokes came in from Gold Bottom Sunday last. They enjoyed the trip, both felt so"good they occasionally turned somersaults or stood on their heads- C. S. aays sv'ow "shoeing is splendid exercise. Messrs. McCulloch, Johnson and Auld have a shaft 42 feet on their property at the mouth of Gold Run.' Louis Clarke is in charge of the pumping and hoisting gear. They are waiting for timbers and lagging. There is a rumor to the effect that Tommy Fletcher has entered the pugilistic arena and is willing to take on all comers, 'Bob' Jamieson preferred. Tommy stipulates that 'Bob's' costume must be of the very lightest, aud he would rather have the fight come ofT iu the open with the thermometer about 45 below. Jack Fox and 'Vic' Ericson came in last Monday from Conrad. Dal- ton's property is the only one being worked, he has six men doing development. The showing iu the Venus, on the upper level is very good, the lead is from two to four feet wide. Four shots brought down too sacks. It is said that the reason ofthe closing down of the Conrad mines was that two much money was spent in needless outside work instead of actual development. There is plenty of good ore and it assays high. When work is started again it will probably be under different management.

The question of cheap labor seems ,lo be agitating the minds of some people in lower British Columbia. They are, principally, the fruit grower and the lumberman. The fruit grower says he must have cheap labor, therefore demands the rescinding of the law re the Chinese bead lax, so-hc may have swarms of the almond-eyed laborer dumped into British Columbia, and the price'of labor cut in two! In consequence the fruit grower-waxes rich, and the toiler���well he's a toiler, that's all. ' The lumberman and boss logger says:; I must have labor, labor of some kind. If 1 could get white men I would rather emplo}' them at their own prices, but they are so ,;.:arcc. The white man in the ���.roods is far superior to the others. He can do more work and do it better, lint we must have labor to parry on our business. Ll' an individual or a company wants anything and wants it badly they make the want known to others and the word spreads. We imagine the same might apply to the wants in the labor market. Why not advertise the scarcity of good, intelligent labor iu our province? The word 'labor' is used advisedly, because the laborer is what we want. There are thousands of good, honest laborers in the older countries; Scandauavians. Germans, eventide of their e.vi-.iciice on a few cents a day. Should;'they shuffle off the .moilai coil their bones are s-.-iit back. Thuy are parasites and vampires. They live'in hovels and filthy dens, fairly reeking with disease and corruption. They wilT never assimilate. They will never adopt our manners customs .or be-' lie'fs. Is there a white man iu our country, be lie ever so far down, who1 will acknowledge a Chinaman liis��� equal? ,It would be an insult to ask. Yet what rue we coining to? Jtn lower British ' Columbia the Chinamen who .came ,to the country years ago and brought wives with them have raised families. These Chinese boys and "girls go, to our schools and sit alongside our sisters and brothers, and our children, and Jhey demand equality! ��� In a generation or two there will be mai'13' more. The}' arc born in Canada, under the British flag, and are British subjects. . As such they have equal rights with any of us. In time lo come ' they will be a peril to this country the same as the colored man is today a' thorn iu the flesh of the United Slates. It will be a case of separate schools, , separate cars, separate hotels and' restaurants, till, bye and bye we will have to separ ate them with something stronger than' the law. This glorious country of Canada is growing, growing fast, and she has a healthy growth, why pollute her. For the sake of ourselves, our children, and our national pride let us have only the best people other countries can afford, but let us have no strain ofthe inferior races within our borders. Canada for the best, the best for Canada. ���1 1H&4 A man in an official capacity should rise above petty personalities. He should do what is expected of the office never heeding the futile criticisms of a weak intellect. & y'X 'anaaian mmi ox n ��� CAPITAL RAID UP $10,000,000. RlCSKUVK, $4,500,000. VaCI ttfkc French, .Swiss, the British and Irish, who would be glad lo come to our country to better their condition, These are the kind of settlers who help lo build up our country by becoming of lis. Working aud saving their money and investing il in land or industry.' People to whom we do not hesitate to hold out hands of welcome and fellowship. People who will help lo make a firm foundation on which we may build a nation as strong ' nnd as rich as the republic to the south. The same republic that is to-day sending us tens of thousands ofthe right kind of settlers. Look at the other picture. Contrast the yellow man with the foregoing, as a.laborer, as a citizen, as a man, and 'where do you gel off at'? They come lo this country with no idea of settling here. They work, in.tact, they slave, the majority arc in a state of bondage, and as their savings accumulate it, is sent back to China. This money leaves the country and we are so much the poorer. Only in very lew cases do they invest, even then, th'e*-greater profits, in the end, go I}')me. If in life they .save enough John S. Fcalherstone, now in the provincial jail at Victoria, is to be hanged on Tuesday next, for the murder of Mary Ann Dalton, at South - Wellington, B. C. Thus works justice her decree. At a' real estate sale the other day in Vancouver, a block of Point Grey properly brought $87,000'. This was only the first installment. Vancouver's city limits will soon be extending to Hastings. ���r g&������*�������� Tl is pleasing to be able to note the promotion of Sir Charles C. Drury, Kf.C.S.L, to the command ofthe Mediterranean-fleet, succeed-' ing Lord Charles Beresford. He wns born at Rothesay, New Brunswick, in 1846, and entered the navy at the age of thirteen. So far only oiie body has been recovered of those drowned ou the steamer Dix. The inspectors intend to hold.a rigid examination in order to ascertain who is to blame. There is something rotten somewhere. Either in the marine law or the regulations, or in the lax way in which they are enforced. The death toll is constantly increasing. Hanging is too good for whoever is to blame. Branches ,of the Bank at ..Seattle, San Francisco,, ���Portland, Skagway, etc- Exchange sold on all Points. -Goi.u Dust Puuciiaski"). A'jxin Branch. if.

About ihe mosl ���contemptible is 'the individual'wiio mingles with his acquaintances; he ���has no really true friends, telling itliem what a '.power he is in tlie -community and how the whole business would go lo-smash if he had -not stepped'in and saved it.' Should .���an election be talked of this individual fairly revels in a halo of his own home-made glory and importance!/ He thinks that his services to either <party are so essential that a victory without him is impossible. Which-1 -ever way he throws his weight the 'Other parly must go'down to defeat. With these notions under his hat he approaches the men of both sides. :at different times. His first move iis to sidle'up and .very confidenti'al- <ly ask how much there is in it for. ihiui. " Discovering that his .importance is not appreciated aud his help ���not sought after, he turns rusty and 'declares he will simply 'throw them down' if he does not get what he ��� -demands. Because a good man is' ���not put out of office and this 'fathead' installed; he threathens to (destroy. This performance is gone rthrough with tlie other parly with sthe ' same result. He is in a quandary. Act two is.to fawn and lick the hand of anyone who will promise him position or spoils. In this act he resembles a mongrel that ���crawls on it's belly for a bone, the "���while cringing in expectation at any moment to get the toe of a ���boot. Both parties have had experience with just such creatures. They are not confined.- to any particular locality. We are sorry to ���say Atlin has not escaped.

But *he other, the Judas, ���who would betray party and coun- itry for a few shekels or an easy job, ���is a thing to be looked upon with .contempt and scorn. Forest Protection. ��� Such' indorsement and reeoni mendation as the following., from an, entirely noii-politicsil and non-partisan journal, is worthy of reproduction:��� 11 is understood that Hon. R. 1'"- Green, commissioner of lands nnd works, has almost completed his plan lor the protection of the forests of the province fiom destruction byj fire. The outline of the plan has already been published .in The Lumbennairand Contractor. ' ll is believed thai it can be satisfactorily worked out and be the cause o( saving much ofthe forest wealth ofthe province. Mr. Green has given, the question of. forest (ires a great deal of attention, aud the McBride govern ment will be able lo put the measure he has fathered into execution, .'h'or this he and the government will deserve the commendation of every man in the province who believes in -conserving the forests., one of our greatest natural re- sources. - Tt is, so to speak, the 'ready money' of the province. The 84,000,000 of people of the United States have reduced their -timber, ���limilsdo a very small area, and the 'lime is not far distant when they will be compelled to rely on Canada' for nearly all .of the lumber they; use. .Already the price of lumber; has advanced to high figures, ow-' ing 10 its ��� scarcity -in the United States, From now on the outlook is'that lumber will keep increasing in value with each year. The demand will be so 'great that British Columbia , will "be paid vast sums for her timber. Timber will materially aid in enriching the people of the province. It is a wise and statesmanlike measure of piecautiou on the part of Mr. Green to endeavor to save as much of our timber, limits as possible from destruction. H$A& ^Pl^A^ feAM<^I Hampton &.
