A -Discovery Firebug. Last, Monday, night a drunken Swede" named " GustaT "Gusfafsoti made a"most determined attempt, t�� bum down the Gold-House in Discovery. ' It .appears he wished to get a bed but being in an intoxicated state he was refused. ��� Not content, however, he stole upstairs and made himself comfortable between the sheets, boots and all. This was too much of a strain on Mr. Rox- borough, and Mr. Swede was summarily ejected. To get even, so it is supposed, he started a fire in a back room of the hotel, close to where some gasoline was stored. He theu proceeded to the warehouse, which is built into the bill, and with a pick smashed in a hole in the door big enough to crawl through. Here another fire was kindled. Fortunately both the fires were discovered and extinguished before any damage was done. At the trial-held in Discovery Thursday forenoon, the accused was given thirty days with hard labor. He can do a little thinking while he is drawing a1 piece of thin steel notched on one edge back and forth across government cordword. He may thank his lucky star he got off so lightly. , 'Rev.

T11 reference to the enquiry of "Seeker After Truth," appearing in this issue,'we say. in answer: There was and is an order-in- council to the effect that any and all public servants should acquiru 110 interests in mining properties, but, should they wish to become possessed of property then the hc:id of the department must be made aware of the transaction and give sanction' to same. This ruling" was intended to and does safeguard the interests and rights of individuals. ��� It put a stop to talk about officials being prejudiced in their own favor, and had the effecL of inducing officials to mind their own business, i. e.., the duties of their position. In other words, it checked a tendency on the part of public servants to look after their own welfare at the expense of the unknowing and unthinking public; thereby assuring a better and a cleaner adiriinistration of om public affairs. Though not the wording of the j order-in-council the above is about the meaning it intends to convey - and the good that followed. That there are breaches of the order-iu- council by public servants \\\e do ��� not doubt. The best laws in the world will not keep some people in the straight road, because they are just naturally crooked. Public servants are no more exempt from- .this than any other cktss. Just exactly why Ihis letter was sent to us for publication we caiiiiot as yet fathom. We answer the question as fully as is in our power. We cannot say that we know of any transgression of the order-in- council by public servants in the Atl'iirdislrict. There is no attitude of defence iu this for anyone, it h simply a declaration [of our belief in the honest efforts of our local public servants. And we will continue to think so till it is proven otherwise. Re Public Servants.

We do not think there is auy^ ' hotter way of expressing our views on the invasion of British Columbia by the Japanese, than by republishing some of the views of B. C.Sati, uulay Sunset while commenting on the demonstration at Vancouver occasioned bj- the visit of Prince Fushimi: - "Quite recently the white section of this city had the felicity of vievv- ' ing in a mass the greater portion of ' .qur-Japanese fellow British Coliim- .bians. IXbtiletions'of brotherly feeling were not conspicuous either 611 .the part oflhe little brown processionists" 'or of the white spectators. In fact the strutting, banzaing,'paper lam-ecu bearers aroused absolute- ly no other sentiment than curiosity ' and subdued resentment. Also- the presence of four "or five thousand little brown men in a bunch was a fairly impressive ��� demonstration of the fact that British Columbia is beting pretty effectively invaded. Considering that we are -a-city of -ahout 70,000, that we - are' hardly-'old enough to vote and can produce on suitable provocation'a procession, of brown celebrationists such as paraded our streets a short time ago, it must be' admitted ,we .are' ''going ��� some. - The. labored, effort put forth by a contemporary to show that Japan is ��� a great nation and that because it is \ , - .a great nation and the ally" of Great1 *��� Britain, that we should accept the Japanese as our equal's is apiece of impudent silliness. Lam sufficiently medieaevilist in .my notions to' discredit that hoary slop about all men having been born free and equal. The Jap,- Chinaman, negro nor any other colored race is the equal of any white race, and it is not in the course bf nature;that it should be. Because Great Britain forms an alliance with a tribe of naked sav-' ages in Fast or. Central Airica, or with a tribe of painted Indians, as she has done in the past years, there is no reason why we Canadians should .be,asked to fraternize with them or accept them as either social or political equals. ' iVaccepY them as equals implies giving them the franchise. .-It'also makes possible that most repulsive o'f all the'^rcsults of fraternizing with' inferior peppjes, the-mixiug of the and variegated assortment of Orien- t.ils.., We.,haye ourtiirbaned fellow iBriiiaiier,s ��j;om India and"our'pig- tailed..brothe'rs in empire from Hong Kong and ^Shanghai. We have the Empire's allies from the flowery "kingdom and numerous others. But because- we belong to the same great and glorious Empire to which we are all proud to belong, there is no reason why we should embrace or slop over fellow.subjects who are in no sense, one with us either in sentiment .or .physical or mental affinities. " Those same people who gush over about the greatness of our allies or fellow subjects and crave our consideration . of them as our equals would-hardly''think of -admitting the cook to their table or the footman,to their.drawing room. Yet',, because a man comes>'to us as the prince-of a people of newly initiated Western progressiveness, we''are asked to do him deference as such. Prince Fushimi conducted himself .as became a gentleman representing a-great nation, and as such he was oflicially received and treated iu Canada:, To assume that he was received with spontaneous enthusiasm by_ the people at large would' be to brand Canadians as snobs and knee-benders, which they .neither, .showed . themselves to be,- nor are, \' . ��� We'have"'-'the. Jap's.'trie Chinese and the Hindus and- with them we have problems. That they are or are not a necessity "is a question. If they are, it is our misfortune and adds nothing to the homogeniety of our people, nothing to our free institutions, nothing to the elevation, of our mental,- moral and physical standards, We simply have to bear with them until we cau do without them, and the'man, public or, private, .vho can. show this province how to dispense with Oriental labor and keep Orientals out of the province will be its greatest benefactor iu every .sense in which the word -.ysrrrjm* 13.7-.-t.t^ t .,.���- jj .v^tv- 'THE ATLIN TRADING '��� CO.,LD, It lias been decided, at a meeting of the shareholders" of the" Atlin Trading' Com-' pany, Limited,, held on Tuesday, afternoon^ June 4th, 1907, to wind up the affairs of the company.
