It repealed the common school act of Vancouver Island,/andWas in tended to establish a uniform system ;of education throughout the colony. But it was especially intended to give facilities for establishing schools in those parts of 'the colony where . there. is a small number iiof chlldren^yand ; where public schools are^ most necessary$''������������������ cause of the total absence;of \any other kini of schools. Nothing, however^seems to ''hfcye. been done towards putting the ordinance into operation until a week 'ago, w&eri the acting governor announced in the^ Go^rhment Gar zette that several places in which there were schools, and in others where they were asked for, were to-become school toiiricts u-nder the new ordinance.; Among: theA places named are Clinton, Lytton, Langley/ Burrard Inlet and Cedar Hill. In none of ;���������;these places is there a greater number ^of children than isi to be found in Barkerville^and ^chfieldyand none of those places contribute half as much to the public revenue as: -we do herei; It may seem strange that Barkerville a^ ]fe :,���������_.'���������; have been overlooked; fc������ ^eiactin^ pernor. It ia hot, however, &at^mcerJa:f^ such oversight appearsjftoint the list of places declared to be school dfistncts^JIt is the fauii of the people of BaVkerv^ themselves. Had they peMonei for the establishment of a school here they might have had tbeir prayer granted. The new ordinance does not propose to create a school district except after the people have petitioned for the same. Now, there is just as much reason for establishing a school in; this: district as there is any of'the places above-named, and ifythe parents of children here wish to take advantage of the new law they ought to forward a petition to the acting governor, who will no doubt be glad of the opportunity to distinguish his administration by doing a good action for Cariboo. The provisions of the new ordinance are liberal, but not so much so as when the bill was first introduced into the Council. The senior member for Victoria succeeded in mangling the provisions of the ; bill so that greater difficulty in its operation would tend to prevent the establishment of schools in^the districts wherenone existed, ,....- and probably, witha- view to concentrate" as1 much as possible all. the educational facilities. ^ w ~^���������_ within.tbelim.snf Victoria.

Now, why should not these persons immediately, set; so. work anil: petition the governor > fbriijfoe establishment of a school ? jTliey are justly entitled to the same privileges as parents in those places now declared to fee school districts under the new law.

The filthy lucre becomes more precious with its scarcity, and the dance now most appreciated is that which is induced by the monotonous music of the water as it runs over a glittering dump-box. The temples of Apollo and. Terpsichore are losing their devotees, who now evince an increasing disposition to frequent those of Mammon,. In the meantime, subscriptions for the proposed building of a church are small and few. "Whither are we drifting?"

The Weather.���������Rain fell fast and heavy on Friday last, and we have bad frequent showers since * that | time. Everybody here of course knows this, and it would seem unnecessary to mention the fact, but. every- everybody interested in the welfare of Cariboo may not know it, and hence the necessity for alluding, to the fall of rain. While we write raiu is falling fast, and judging from, ap pearances we may have raih for a.' consid- erabie time yet. ;A jgood many men had been thrown out of work hi' consequence pf the drought, who will now be enabled to resume their occupation. Piping and ground- sluicing, which had. been almost altogether discontinued, has been resumed in many claims; and the prospects for a good yield of gold, through the increase of water, are now very encouraging. ���������.'./ ,. ��������� Fire Brigade, Attention !���������Drill will take place this evening, and you are all requested to attend to test the new hose which'arrived yesterday.

And swarm they did and about the ears of officials, who for some time made ineffectual . elforte to induce the saucy little creatures to go back into the hire and be good. A dozen or more passengers, who ran .to the spot to learn the excitement, got their eyes bunged up as the price for their curiosity. But the train started on ; and the refractory little creatures, who had refused to return to the hive, were observed on the wing a few rods behind the train, doing their best to keep up, generally coming in, as the train stopped at the different stations, in time to sting the brakemen.

Title | The Cariboo Sentinel |
Publisher | Barkerville, B.C. : George Wallace |
Date Issued | 1869-07-14 |
Description | The Cariboo Sentinel was published in Barkerville, in the Cariboo region of central British Columbia, and ran from June 1865 to October 1875. At the time, Barkerville was home to a fast-growing community of miners who had been attracted to the Cariboo region by the discovery of gold. The Sentinel was published by George Wallace, and its stated objective was not only to disseminate mining intelligence, but also to eradicate official abuse[s] of power, both within the Cariboo region and beyond (vol. 1, no. 1, p. 2). |
