There is no doubt that-it is tiie white people of British Columbia themselves, as a whole and as individuals, wlm are very largely to blame for lhe inrush of Orientals into the province. If we did not employ Chinese in uny way, they could not make a living and would not only cease tn come in, hut very quickly begin to go out. The Dominion Government might no doubt do a great deal more than il. has xlone towards preventing these people ���������lining brought in to work for railway and other corporations, who could not he induced hy any ordinary considerations to join in ti hoycott of Oriental labor.

The {losition adopted hy the Laurier administration on lhe question of the Chinese head lax is in<>.-.t, absurd. They admit the principle of the tax and even consent to double it. But they will not. raise it sufficiently to render it adequate to do the work for wliich it is intended. The only justification of Ibis tax is the principle that it is desirable to absolutely exclude Chinese immigration from the Dominion altogether. AVe make them pay to come in because we do not want them to come at.-ill. * The head tax is not intended to offset their undesir- .-'ibility as immigrants or to compensate the country for the injury which their presence inflicts upon our own work- iiigiueti and so slowly but surely upon every class of business and profession. Nothing-of the.kind. The ohjerti'pf the tax is to keep these people out altogether and iL is perfectly inconceivable why ;iny government, which has once admitted this principle, should refuse to increase the lax until it really does the work which it is designed to perform. ii short stories V'*__J _____.___��������� 't M Here then are the bare facts about ������p ... m Tuesday's business--very startling1 II Igp, ��������� ; . -.*.������������������._* iSjjJ pf news it is about some seasonable f������j i| and serviceable goods. ���������m JUST ARRIVED ���������jB_lTSTA������Er J SIX'S Two Hundred Dozen Preserving Jars just- arrived.

At this last moment, when their paltering with their pledges, means the loss to the Liberal party of every seat in the piovince, they have not dared to go counter to the dictates of these corporations.

While it is true that the hills'ire high and steep and rugged, yet these things frequently make for cheap minim; by reason of tlie case with which tunnels, may he driven into the mountains, gaining depth very quickly with every foot of work. The rocks," too. are, as a rule, softer and more easily worked than the eruplives of southern Kootenay. Still the district has languished behind. With few exceptions verv little deep mining has heen attempted, and it i**> noteworthy that wherever .my depth lias been reached Ihe ore bodies have proved persistent and carried good values. The Silver Oup may be cited as the only property in the western part of the district on which extensive, systematic development work has been done, and this is closely followed by the Lavina-group, in the eastern or L1trdn-D_ihc.u1 side. Both properties promise, when more extensively developed, to rival the uch silver-lead mines of the Slocan, many of which are richer than the mines of Mexico and Peru which excited the avarice and ferocity of Spaniaids in. the seventeenth century. Tt may be safely predicted therefore that the unexplored Lardeau and. Lardo-lJunc-m regions will yet contribute laigely to the mineral production of the piovince. It. will be recalled that in his report for 1897 Mr. Curly le dealt very largely with these districts, for it should be borne in ..mind that there are two separate and distinct districts, the eastern "or Lardo-Duncan and the western or Lardeau. Coming directly from Colorado, Mr. Carlyle found many points of resemblance in the geological structure with the Leadville and Aspen portions of the great silver st.ite. He" was prevented from carrying the comparisons very far, through the lack of sufficient, work to determine the conditions; but since that time his opinions have been confirmed by lhe actual development of a number of Anyone leading Mr. port and bearing in mind the reserve which must always guard these official.utterances could not fail to' be deeply" impressed with the importance which this competent authority attached to these districts as valuable assets of t.he province. Since that time considerable work has been done on a f'ew-'properties, out lack of transportation alone, has in-evented others from opeiating on a larger scale.���������Rossland Miner.

Mr. Allen has written his allegory of those tiekls with a witchery that could only be equalled in tho dreams of a mystic Hindoo, as he, reclining, puffs the dried hemp���������gun yah��������� smouldering in his yellow pipe carved from the ivory of the tusk deprived animal.

TH1-' MUSINGS OF EDWARDS "When the people, however, searched for the wearers ot these Liberal garments, they found tho same results lhat followed the (tuest of the curious Slratbconaltes. The "dummy" which has been masquerading as lhe Liberal party bore no more resemblance to the genuine old Reformers than did the suspended inanimate effigy to the jocular tailor. Below will be found some ot the latest perpetrations of that genial free lance of western journalism Tho Alberta Sun: One of those harmless, green, pure in heart Englishmen, "just ovah," stepped Into MacWhittie's barber shop on the eve of the Edmonton races and asked to have his hair cut clean ort. After the job -was completed he asked to be allowed to gather up all the hair. "Why, certainly," said MacWhittie, staring slightly. "Want to give it away in keepsakes?" "Oh, dear, no! I chaunced to ask a man about an hour ago for a straight tip on the races, and he said that he could give me a. steer for my whiskers. I'm going into the cattle business, anyhow, you know, and��������� ha! ha'.���������this is a cheap way of procuring a sleeah. I'll just take these whiskers down and get the steeah. Wonder it I couldn't get a cawlf on my bally mustawche!" At 10 o'clock that night wc saw this gentleman very sloppy and wrathy at thc bar of the Royal, minus his luxuriant whiskers., minus the steeah, and plus a jag of considerable size and weight. This was the first eye-tooth. "lt is no wonder lhat Ihouauds of conscientious Liberals throughout the land aro crestfallen at the trick played upon them. The alleged Liberal government is discovered lo be only a "dummy" masquerading In clothes that once woro worn by a great party. Saddles, ln some form, are of the greatest antiquity. Under Tiglath- Pilcser HI. the Assyrian cavalry were provided wilh them, and the early Romans used a covering of cloth, hide or skin, which was no doubt very similar. Germany has given up the Reaumur thermometer, and after Jaunary 1, 1901 will use only the Centigrade. In the Reaumur the division between the freezing and the boiling point is into SO degrees, in the Centigrade it is into 100 degrees. , Theodore Roosevelt's first ancestor to come to this country was Klaas Mar- tenson Van Roosevelt, who came hither in 1S49 with his wife, Janette S.

' The farmers and gardeners of Wash- I ingl.on State, like those of British ! Culiinbiii. are sullVring from tho cutworm. The Seattle P..1.. says: " According to \V .11. Brown, country fruit inspect or, one of the must, serious problems the agriculturists of the state have hail to fact; fur yens is thu pri'sent epiili'inic of cul-worms. Some portions uf this country are fairly alive with t licin, and the damage they do is appalling. In the While river valley there are whole acres nf cabbago and .ilhi'i" crops which are cnmpiMely ruined by thu ravages of the worms. Iu place.-, they fairly cover the ground. Mr. Brown hud a head, or what would have been a head of cabbage if the worms had left it alone, from Fremont, on which he counted no less than 200 worms. " The scientific name of the pest is peridromia sauciii. In appearnce it is a rather tlii_k-.-et black worm about an inch and a half long, with a row of yellow spots, six iu number, down the middle of its back. . It is a semi- tropical cut worm, mid has done much damage on Southern plantations, particularly among the tobacco crops. It has also been found iu Mexico and portions of California. Two years ago it appeared in the Hawaiian islands and destroyed thousands of acres of crops. "Lust evening Mr. Brown said that the fruit as well as the vegetable growers of the state could not afford to lose any fiuiu in taking measures to stop its ravages. 'I hear even noiv,' he said, "that the y arc beginning to climb the trees. When they (In this limy cut fdilagc and also cut the stems of the fruit, causing it to fall mid of course become lost. " 'I have been asked by many during the past few days for a remedy for the pest. Thfre me two great classes of insect I'pests. The members of one suck - like a* "mosquito, and such a remedy as a soup wash will dispose of them. The other class, to which the worm belongs, eats thc foliage, and it is more difficult' to handle. On such plants as tomatoes a spray of one pound of Paris giver, lo 150 gallons of water is very effective. On the cabbages, however, this must be used with a great deal of cue. Another method adapted to house plants is to spread a mixt lire of Paris green, bran and molasses around the roots cf the plant. ''"I used still another method with good success in my own yard, and can lvi'oiiimened it to those having only a small garden. J turned my flock of about 300 chickens into the yards, aiul tliey ilis-pof ed of I he worms in iilim s no Lime, And as long as worms were there, tbey diiln'i injure the plants.' ���������'Still another method of disposing of the worms sugg.isted by Mr. Briwn is to sprinkle the plant and ground with plaster of Paris. The worm eat*-- thu plaster along with the plant, with result that when the plaster sets it forms n very nice plaster cast of the victim taken by himself, interior veiw. lt i.s also of some value as a fertilizer, being thus good for the ground, the plant and the bug.
