C-.^ Vancouver City, Mount Pleasant, South Vancouver and The Province VOLUME I VANCOUVER, British Columbia, APRIL 15, 1910. No. 49 HERE AND THERE In the removal by the sad death of the late Hon. It. G. Tatlow, British Columbia has lost a patriotic public-spirited gentleman, one of whom all who | have know him in either public or pri- vate life speak in the.highest terms. Captain Tatlow filled the position of '3\'l mister of Finance and Agriculture for a period'of six' years. When he took charge of these departments the public affairs of Hritish Columbia were at a very low ebb, and it was largely due to the untiring efforts of Captain Tatlow that the credit of the province has been placed upon' such a high [basis. Anoh'er distinct feature in the life land work of Captain Tatlow is seen in |tlie remarkable development of the Fruit industry in this province. We [have repeatedly carried off the prizes |m various great exhibitions and this Ingain is due to the leadership and oversight of the late Minisler,ot Agricul- ie who made many personal sacri- iries in order to develop this important Ivork. Not only has the province lost Ii man of highest possible integrity and libility. but society has lost one of the [ruest of men, one in whom all had confidence; one, who at all times and |!iider all circumstances was kind and onsiderate. It mattered not whether Ihe pei'son addressing hini was wealthy and cultured or of humblest cir- tuinstaiices. you were always sure of a |ind and courteous reception. All British Columbia will niourn the Ijss of such a character and our sympathy will go out to those who must leel the loss the more keenly because \t the closer and more Intimate rela- iship. * * * Aid.

It is to be sincerely hoped that every effort will be made to have this .completed as soon as possible.

Broadway as well will be paved this season, * * * The Council on Monday evening last' again reaffirmed its decision regarding the development of False Creek. Aid. McBride and his lone compatriot.

McBride shows but poor grace to refuse to accept defeat but must perforce keep "nagging" at the question, that is not the way to make progress. *���������**-. The B. C. Electric .came in again'for some severe criticism by Aid. Stevens, when the mater of Richard street car line came up. The company asks for, fifteen months to complete and also had to refer several minor matters to'; London, which was characterized by the aldermen as a farce/ In this we heartily concur. The company holds a valuable franchise and its operation is exclusively in and around Vancouver and Victoria and there is no one here qualified to deal with any matter of ordinary importance without first con. suiting the "Board" in London. We be- Jieye, howeVeiC this situation is used chiefly to delay any matter' which the company do not wish to cary out and by a system of .procrastination they AS LEADER Iig resolution in the Council on Mon- Kiy'eyeiiing last: [This Council learns with sincere re- <pt the loss the Province of British ('lumbia and the City of Vancouver is sustained by the fatality which has Ii suddenly terminated the life of the ye Robert G.

At yesterday's fsion the subject of the transfer of Winters hotel came up for further icyssion.

No man iu any other of business wouid dare to do it. iVheartily support the Mayor in his I'rts and hope the citizens will do so. often succeed in overcoming a situ ation which to them is unsavory, but which is in the public interests. ��������� * * "My solicitors are Bowser, Reid & Wallbridge." said Mr. J. It. Atchison to the .Mayor a few clays ago. "Go ahead and get your fiat. It will take so long to gel it here'that by that time the job will be done and I will be on theother side," said Mr. J. Jt. Atchison to the police on Sunday. ���������Mr. Atchison is the representative of the American firm, Charles C. Moore & Co., who are building the big concrete chimney for the B. C. Electric Railway company. Mr. Atchison, alarmed at the attention drawn to his operations by people who object to Sunday labor in this city, had applied to the Mayor for a permit under which he could work on the first day of the week and had been promptly refused.' His remark, naming his solicitors, was made as the interview was closed. Last Sunday, acting under instructions from the Mayor, the police visited the big smokestack and took the names of the men working there, with a view to initiating a prosecution as soon as the atorney-general's fiat had been obtained. Then it was that. Mr. Atchison said he would be through before Mr. Bowser's department would have given the fiat. And now it remains to be seen whether the fiat will get to Vancouver first or Mr. T. It. Atchison to Seattle. Th above article appeared in The World of April 13. 1310. It is to be hoped thatt his open defiance of both law and custom will met with a well- merited punishment. Opinions may and always will differ on the question of what a just and equitable Sabbath law is, but there is little difference of opinion as to the general cessation of labor on that day. The Sabbath day is an institution that lias become a part of the national life and we agree as a people to make it a day of rest as far as possible. This is independant of law and a violation of a recognized custom is an insult to the people generally. Law simply erystalizes public opinion and authorizes its enforcement. Those who flagrantly abuse this public sentiment should therefore be made to suffer for it. As we go to press, f.o*vice has been received from Victoria, that the attorney-general has granted a "Fiat" The agreement between the city and the Great Northern and the scheme of the Council t.o bulkhead False Creek opposite Gore avenue, is the chief topic of interest in the city at present. It is highly desi-able that there should be as much publicity given to the matter as possible and we purpose discussing it fully from week to keek in these columns. We are convinced that the City Council have acted wisely and advisedly in what they have done. It is common knowledge that many weeks were spent by the Harbor Improvement committee in discussing the agreement with the Great Northern and in endeavoring to get the balance of the prop erty owners along Park lane to come to reason. Many sessions of the committee were held and in some cases lasting all day long. It. stands to reason that this body of intelligent men coupled \vi:h the' advice of Mr. W. A. McDonald, who is recognized as the best municipal lawyer in the province, wouid not submit to council any other than a carefully prepared scheme. Then, following this there was a special meeting of the Council when the whole question was thoroughly discussed and the above mentioned agree, ment arrived at. The point which we. wish to make clear this week is the effect that an open waterway with wharfs in the head of False Creek would have on Westminster avenue. If the scheme were to be made pay it would mean that there must be sufficient traffic to pay the interest on this investment, his traffic would all have to pass through the Westminster avenue bridge; it tkes one and a half minutes to lift and the same to lower the bascule; it. would take about five minutes for a tug and scow to pass through. This'would mean that eight minutes would be consumed in passing the bridge. All this time the street-car traffic and foot traffic would be held up. The bridge at present is taxed to comfortably handle the traffic, but what would be the result if there was a delay of from five to ten minutes? Carry this further and ask what would be the result, if this occurred twenty times a day? It would mean that all thetraffic to and from the south shore of the creek would be disorganized and this in turn would delay the traffic, throughout the whole city. It is simply out of the question. No effort has been made to explain how this situation is to be met. It is an argument which is irrefutable. \V������ have never had the inconvenience of waiting for an open bridge, and hence it is hard to conceive without, experience. It will, however,.-.be remembered what irritating delays were occasioned by the single-track on the old bridge. This only affected the car traffic. This opening will affect, all kinds of traffic and must be disastrous to the business on Westminster avenue and militate against the interest, of the public. Next week we will deal with other phases of the question and from week to week until the bylaw is passed. THE LICENSING BOARD The following clipping from the leading Conservative organ of this city is simply another evidence of the interest which pervades the ranks of the Conservative party of Canada. The article states that "there was no half-hearted- ness about the matter . . . " There seemed to be no real reason for the action." That is exactly where our learned friend is off. There is a reason, and a very good-one, too, for the evident uneasiness in the ranks of the electorate generally. Why. we ask, are the leaders (?) of the party'everlastingly, confirming Borden as Leader. Every lew months we hear of a great caucus held to discuss the leadership and there, we are told "was no occasion for it; that all was well." The article we refer to is as follows: . Ottawa, April 12.���������The general committee of fifty which had in hand the preliminary arrangements for the Conservative convention, which was to have met here next June, decided this afternoon to report to caucus that it be postponed. The caucus will meet again in the morning and the report of the committee will be adopted. While the convention has . been postponed from the date originally set, it is not likely that it will be held'this year. Hon. Mr. Borden was enthusiastically endorsed as leader of the party at the prolonged caucus of the Conservative members; Mr. George H.Perley. MP. for Argeriteuil, presiding. There was no half heartedness about the matter and a resolution was unanimously passed amid loud cheers, expressing iinnpi- cit confidence in Mr, Borden's administration; 7 It was the most enthusiastic caucti's hehhthis parliament. 7^ 7 7> There seems to have been no real foundation for any reason for dissension in the Conservative party as to the leadership of Mr. R. L. Borden. The meeting expressed confidence in him as the leader of the Liberal-Conservative party and its unanimous desire that lie should continue to hold that position and pledged to him its allegiance iihd loyalty. It will -be-noted that the convention which was to have been held in June and representative of all Canada is called off. By whom? By the leaders (?); by those who are manipulating the whole scheme of party government; for themselves and the party. Therein lies the reason for tbe unrest of which we have spoken. The general electorate are about sick of being led around by the nose by a few extreme partisans whose sole interest is remaining in power or getting in that position. What the people are demanding today is a true interpreaiion of democracy, a system that will give them "in fact" what they are now supposed to have in theory. This can only be secured by the introduction of "direct legislation." and this in turn is the hardest blow which could be given to graft aud patronage, and incidentally to poliii'cal parasites. Hence the alarm: hence the withdrawal of a representative convention. The full Board of License Commissioners met Tuesday in the Council chamber, which was crowded with an interested gathering. Again the board gave evidence of its determination to "clean" lip the hotels. The license of the Louvre was indettnately suspended. A rather curious surprise was sprung in connection with the Louvre, when the proprietor, in his earnest plea for time and leniency, stated that'Magistrate Williams was the owner of the place. It is a disreputable hole, having only four bed-rooms and no "dining- room, but a flourishing bar. It is a sample of many others which exist and the board is determined to have this class abolished. The Iiiquois. the place where poor, unfortunate Shibben met his death, was ordered closed and given CO days to dispose of stock and license to a party satisfactory to the board. The board also went on record as favorable to a special inspector for hotels; The present inspector, Archie Robinson, is inspector for all licenses of every kind and has not the time necessary to devote to the hotel inspection. The Vandicar got its license at last. Dr. Spencer opposed it, presenting a petition against the granting of the license, but the board thought that as the premises were in accord with the requirements of the law that a license should be granted. The Mayor stated that next July when licenses are renewed there will be many who will not be renewed. ,A recent trip of investigation proved to the satisfaction of the board hat some of the so-called hotels were nothing but dives of dissatisfaction and hence their determination to cancel all such cases. ,, Government Control of Railways COMNilCATION WITH MARS BY LORD TELLAMORE A Serial Story to be run each week in thd "Call" How shall I announce my discovery?

However, used by a pantheist and carrying the meaning it must carry consistent with such teaching, I am minded to raise an objection. I shall look at some things in nature for help. Magnetism may be within-us, and is; but before we find, or have any knowledge of it there, we may get knowledge of this subtle force by looking at a pocket compass, an ordinary magnet, or by rubbing the back of a pel cat. So with gravity. Gravity is within as well as without. And yet we may get our first knowledge of gravity from seeing a tree, a leaf, a raindorp fall. The scientists in search of gravity, magnetism, electricity, force, temperature, go as a rule to the "elsewhere" rather than, to the human unit to make discovery and to gain knowledge. The "Bible," the "elsewhere," are just as helpful in discovering God, and more so than the solitary human soul. Of course Campbell makes the soul sufficient, as the soul is God, with him. Pantheistically he is consistent. But even then the "Bible" and the "elsewhere" are God as truly as the soul. So his talk could be cut out without loss. And the City Temple would not know the difference. Page 208. "While sin remains in the universe God is defeated; everlasting punishment involves His everlasting failure." This quotation uttered by any ordinary evangelical of. any known Christian, denomination, could be taken as stated, and looked upon as fairly reasonable. Personally I could agree with the statement standing out free by itself. However, as it comes from Campbell. I shall not let it pass without comment. He uses the word sin. We must see what he talks about when he takes sin for his topic. I shall use a few quotations:��������� "Evil is a negative term." "Evil is'non-being." "Infinity can know nothing of evil." "Sin is but the failure to realize that we are Christ, the eternal Son." "Sin is a quest for God." . "The visible universe is consciousness." "The invisible universe is consciousness." "We are here to grow the soul." "The spirit can neither make nor mar." "God is my deeper self." "I shalj not cease to be I. nor you to be you." "There must be a region of experience where we shall find that you and I are one." "The distinction between finite and infinite is not eternal." "There can be nothing in the universe outside of God." "Jesus was God, but so are we." "We too are Christ, the Eternal Son." When we consider what God is. what man is, what Jesus is. what evil is and what sin is as learned from the above quotations, then we are amazed at Campbell's further statement:���������"While sin remains in the universe God is defeated." and the more amazed when we are told that "Sin is a quest after God." Poor^ip-yan.-Wjnkled City Templars! On page; 215. "The deeper self is the judge, the self who is eternally ane with God." Now on page 35 he says of my deeper self, "Cod is my </."**t self," Let us substitute here on page 215, and instead of saying "The deeper self in the judge," we shall say "Cod is the judge." And then in the latter part of the quotation we shall say "The God who is eternally one with God." Then in its new form, using his own definition, we get the following: "Cod :s the judge, the God who is eternally one with God." What arrant nonsense ! ! But now we change and substitute self for God, as per pages 35 and 215, "The bVener self is the judge, the self who is eternally one with self." How silly! His statement when standing by itself looks ouite reasonable, but when his former pantheistic definition is apolied and substitution used, he appears foolish enough to remind one of the first day of April. Surely the City Temple and April the First are synonyms! Page 21 7. "Pain is the token of our divine lineage." Yes, if pain b* a characteristic of divinity. However from the Campbell pantheistic stand ooint, pain is no more characteristic of divinity than are pleasure, greed, hale. "ove. noise, cold, hunger, smoke, fish, eels, jnakes, snappers and sinners. I say this as seriously as is possible in dealing with his dogmatic pantheistic, tautological logomachy. Page _22f .��������� "The rAilpspohy wn^ derstand it, is monistic idealism, and monistic idealism recognizes no furida- nentaI distinction between matter and spirit." :'-'a'T������'���������'.',. In this quotation he tells us that "monistic idealism" is the foundation o77 ���������he New Theology. And as he is the spokesman for the New Theology, w> shall take him at his word. Then he. is a monistic idealist. Good! And as such he admits "no distinction between matter and spirit." Good! This is the last analysis of the pantheist. The monistic idealist is another name for the pantheistic materialist. And no matter which term is used, the renh is there can be nothing v 'he universe but Cod. All is God and God is all. Hence "My deeper sel s God." And so he trots around in a circle. If he were a mathematician h- -vould be a specialist in permutations. But being a loquacious word juggler he is an expert perip'irast'Vcfor, and Io! the City Temple apoiauds. Page 222. "Tbe fundamental reality is consciousness." On page1 32 he says:���������"The universe is convjousness." Herre it foHows that the universe is the fundamental reality. I nov wonder what is left. But he says on page 222:���������"The sn--fi!ied material wcrld is the pre duel of consciousness exercising itself along a limitrd plane." Here ve ma; cut out "so-called," and l^p off "exercising itself along a limited plane. ' Then we have the plain statement: "The material world is the produc of consciousness." But surely tbe ":iml't'"-l z-rrk'" is the v!s:b!e universe, o* .? part of th< "visible universe"! Page 32���������"The universe is consciousness.'* Thus he seriously informs us that "The visible universe is coiisciourness.' Would he then say that "the vis'ble universe is consciousness" and ?*the pr$ duct of conscious'������e?s" at the same time? He would find it difficult to satisfy himself, or any sane man, that th "world is the product of consciousness" and "is consciousness," at the sam time. He certainly so says, and also says much else that is equally as foolis- or more so, if possible. And the C'ty Temple pays him for it. Pape 222. "Matter exists only in and for the mind." This is anothe rhild of his monistic-idealistic pantheism. Another permutation! T^"1 thing kno'vn as Verse, mo'^tain, frog, moon, earth and City Temple "ex.si. . om in Campbell's "mind." ' And better still as he says, they "exist onlv for" his "mind," -no-e e< serially The City Temple and the simpletons who pay the piper. They cer ainly seem to exist only for his mind, for his purpose, for his convenience. Page 222. "The physical is a mod? of language." A horse is a modi of language, and so also The City Temple light! A queer "mode"! But he says at the same time: "The physical is an expression of thought" and further he asserts that the physical is a condition of thought. Now we shall put these in line and take a look at the row: The physical is a mode of language. The physical is an expression of thought. The physical is a condition of thought. "Matter exists only in the mind." Matter is physical and exists only in the mind. "Matter, the physical i t PHONE 4������48 H. J. PARRY & CO.

An interested friend who was -intimate with tlie learned professor told lyiu of my attempts, my constant studies, and how I was in search of a means by which 1 could read the unin- iclligible Seisniographic vibrations. He became deeply interested in me and my work, wrote me, visited and instructed me as no oilier man could ; and gave me a. sum of money to'use in the pursuit of.my great, object. 1 now had,all the means necessary to follow up my work in comfort ; and so I and my icving, unselfish little wife, gave our whole time and thought to the discovery of a means of deciphering what, we called the Seismograph X. To us, in common with many, X represented the unknown quantity, so we abbreviated the unknown vibratr ions seen chronicled on the Seismo -, graph to two letters S X. Hence our whole work was a search after S. X., the Seismograph, i. e. unknown vi - orations. . Think of it reader! Two simple letters! S. X.! We talked of S, X. thought of S. X.; worked for S. X. ; dreamed of S. X. ; and saw S. X. written across the face of the blue heavens, dimpled over the curling sides of the: thunder cloud, blazing in the light -' ning flash, shining in the dew drop, j frozen in the crystal snowflake^ and whispered in our morning, noonday, ��������� evening, and midnight prayers. Chapter II. We built a small, but strong and, comfortable building in which we lived and labored for S. X. We selected7 a, shaded spot, where winds could do} little to effect, to the smallest, extent, our home. It was far inland, so that a large and strong building to protect tue b. X. rooms rrom change by wind and tempeniiuie. By artificial means we kept the temperature of the space between the home.and- the covering house at. a constant grade. The outer house had no connection with the inner house, called '���������our! home." The Seismograp'hic rooms had no contact with toe structure,, foundation, and walls of the home. i hey were within and under the home, but not. in touch. Each instrument Had its own separate foundation on the solid bed rock, and in no way could it be sensibly affected, except through vibration from the foundation, or through the air. Of course I had wire connection for purposes of light and communication, with all the lines telegraphic, tele - phonic, and others that seemedinecessary. We spent many years in collecting old discs, readings, pamphlets, book - lets, reports written, typed and prin- .ei). and all other material .that would aid us in finding S. X. Our collection was very large, and we had an extensive technical refer - ence library, and several expert assistants to lesson pur labors. Each did the work given him. but none knew our real object. This was our secret.- our life work, our goal, our own S. X. My wife and I alone held-the.mysterious in hand. l Daily, weekly, monthly, yearly, and irregularly, reports of seismoi came to hand from various countries ; and these.were deciphered, differentiated, rmd classified for reference and com- parisoh. ���������" , Every storm chronicled by every meteorolgicrtl observatory, every newspaper clipping giving an account of a storm, in fact every kind of information that could hear on seismography wis most carefully culled and tabulated for future use. Years"rolled on. and on. till we had most clearly found tho various kinds and sources of vibration. The earth movements, that came at regular intervals, were eliminated first, and their true value found. The tidal vibrations were put. by themselves. These" were of four sorts, (si), caused by the water on the surface of the earth answering to the attraction of sun and moon."' (b). those caused by the action of the plan- etsr (c), those caused by the internal or molten mass answering to the heavenly bodies in a manner similar to that of the water, and (d), the crust of the earth itself changing," flexing, yielding and answering to the action of the moon and sun. Then the wind storms, regular and ivr'e- .en. we lound to be chroniciec on our seismograph. These we eliminated. So on, and on we went, until we found much of confusion and complexity removed. We were approaching our goal, our S. X. As time passed, my wife and I gradually lost all track of the current events of the world, except so far af they bore on the subject of our re search. Great events came and went, wonderful discoveries were chronicled, marvellous inventions of thci past were developed to ivn extent far beyond the anticipation of the first, inventors. The dirigible balloon, the air freight ship, the air war ship, the submarine war, freight and passenger ships were all perfected, and people at will traveled through air, on the earth, over the seas and through the water.' Not only the wealthy, but Ihe middle class had, in large numbers, their under water pleasure, boats, and their own private air ships .by which they would visit their r.eiir and distant friends in the most comfortable and rapid manner. Mighty wars had fairly. wrecked great, and small nations. Russia was wiped off the map. Turkey disappeared. Norway, Sweden, Denmark, Belgium, Portugal,-Way, Greece and other countries had become n part, of the Israel itish Empire which was formed by a union of Britannia, Unistatia and Japan. All these things we had some knowledge of, but our minds were fixed, intently devoted to our study, bur hunt after our ideal S. X. One thing that made us both more intent than all else, wp.s the fact that we knew the time at which I should go away from the earth. So we hastened to find our goal before my de - parture. I need not. say how 1 came to know that I would live to, and die at the,end of my 120th year, as it would absorb too nvich of this book, written for a quite another purpose. After many long years of patient toil, we eliminated the following vibrations from the realm of study. 1st, the whole group that had their origin ������{���������������������������'���������' ��������� I Wood you can BURN I ROYAL WOOD YARD + * * * * * * t ��������� * t Phono 1644 20 LanssJowno Ave., oastm Dry Fir lusirteFir Dryi Cordwood First Growth - Second Growth (Cut any length) $3.00 300 3 75 3 75 3..j7 Factory Clippings Half Dry Fir - Fir Slabs .

We confine ourselves to the facts, arid if you desire to invest in an enterprise of real merit,- we would be glad to furnish you with the fullest particulars, and to have you interested with us,,-^ otherwise, please do not waste your own time or ours. The Story in Brief A syndicate of well-known business men of'Vancouver have, by the expenditure of time and capital and the employment of experts, secured an area of what is believed to be THE BEST UNDEVELOPED OIL LANDS in California. This property comprises 20 mineral oil locations, containing in all 3.080 acres. This ground is near San Diego, which city affords not only a good local market for oil products, but also good shipping facilities, and the property is favorably situated for the construction of a gravity pipe line to the harbor at a minimum cost. On this field, the geological formations, the seepages and surface indications cannot be excelled in California, and its value is the more assured by its being in direct line with producing areas, having identical formations. So favorable were the reports on this particular property, that, after a personal inspection by members of the Directorate, as large an area as possible was secured, and arrangements made for the commencement of developmnt work. THE BEAVER OIL COMPANY, organized to carry out the work of developing this property, is registered under the laws of California, to do business in that State. It is capitalized at $2,000,000 in ONE DOLLAR shares. There is no "preferred" or "promotion" stock, and the Company commences operations with its valuable property and plant entirely unencumbered. All charges for prospecting, inspection and ac quiring of this large acreage, the purchase and installation of an up-to-date steam drilling plant, together with all costs connected with company organization, have been met by the Syndicate Membership. It is proposed to issue to the public small blocks of stock, as the requirements of the work will warrant. The first of these is for only 50,000 shares, "and, considering the valuable assets of tlie Company, the price is exceptionally low. These shares are fully paid up and non-assessable, the management reserving the right to increase the price, without notice, on any shares that are not taken up. Later issues will be placed at higher figures. Don't Mistake Us We are selling thisstock at a low figure with the object of proving thevalue of the Company's prop erty as quickly as possible. When we have developed the oil in a paying quantity, there will be no stock issued to the public at any price. We are convinced that we have in this property and its development the best opportunity for great things in the way of business that ever knocked at our door, and we are backing up this conviction with our money. If you wish to have a part in this enterprise and to share the opportunity with us, now is the time to get in on ground floor prices. With the advent of our first strike, every acre of our holding will jump in value to at least $2,000 per acre. The prices now being paid in Southern California for semi-developed oil lands are sufficient warrant for the estimate that the Beaver Oil Company's stock will soon be held at a price far exceeding its par value. The Midway oil field in Kern County is probably the liveliest spot in the United States today, all on account of the great oil wells recently brought in there. Lands that were not worth $5 an acre six months ago are now selling at $2,000 per acre and upwards. One of the new wells is producing $6,500 worth of oi! every 24 hours. The Official Geological Report refers most favorably to the San Diego district as an oil area. G. W. Magwood, Esq., geological expert, is one of the latest to add testimony to the prospective richness of this field. After spending several weeks in the district investigating the oil conditions, he insists that this point is destined-to become one of- the greatest oil producing centres of the West. Further, "I have given ten years to the geological study of formation stratas, and anticlinals of the different oil fields of this State, and have been in every field that is to any extent developed, and find that the oil belt is continuous from Monterey to the Gulf of California," and "where the big producers are, the formation follows the Coast." Referring particularly to the ground between Del Mar and Otay (in which the Beaver Oil Company's land is situated), he states that "the oil strata can be traced in a line approximately the same distance inland, and the conditions are evidence that there are great lakes of oil. OF WHICH THE GREATEST LIES BETWEEN DELMAR AND OTAY MESA." In this district the expert finds all the favoring conditions, the lime, shale, oil sand, fossils, gypsum, sulphur and oil breaking through, to justify the belief of the existence here of the greatest pool of oil in the State of California.

Government ownership and control of terminal elevators. We think that with the strength of public opinion now in support of such a move the Dominion Government would be doing very well to establish its own line o! terminals. Reasons why this should be done have been accumulating rapidly enough within recent months, and one of the most prominent is the fact that the erminals have so largely fallen into the hands of private parties who are in some way connected with the grain, trade. We are told that now the. only independent storage at the lake front is owned by the C. P. R. company and this concern is not likely to continue in the business of warehousing grain very much longer. The best development of our grain trade business can- hot come by hampering it, and it would certainly be seriously hampered if exporters thai did not own a complete j line of terminals and transfer elevators were compelled to put their shipments through the houses of rival firms. j There is, we think, a very, very much clearer case in favor of Dominion Government ownership of terminals and transfer elevators than there is for Provincial Government OAynership of initial elevators. Several of the arguments on this matter have to do with . the relations in which the shipper is placed, but perhaps the reason that would have the most weight with the government is found in the position that it itself occupies. .By the very nature of our inspection and grading service, the integrity and responsibility of the Domi.iion Government is pledged en every certificated consignment of grain that goes into storage. Unless the Dominion Government is prepared to provide the machinery to guard, beyond peradventure, that the different grades shall go through without being tampered with, their certification or standards is bound sooner or later to become a farce. This has been so evident that they have already been forced to put in officials so that the operation oft terminals is under their supervision. There is good reason for questioning if even this is giving satis- -factionvandi anyAvay.-it is^not going.a. very great deal further to do the work than it is to-put one man to watch how another man does it. If the present investigation reveals the tact that, even under supervision, grades are being mixed, it would look as though the preservation of its own i iejs,iity in connection with the grades should force the Dominion Government to accept the principal of ownership and operation of the elevators through which, the gn;i:i to which it certifies must of necessity be passed. Nova Scotia .Legislature .Introduces Provincial Prohibitory Law. After trying high license auu ���������..~ Scott act, the Nova Scotians purpose dealing finally with the vexed liquor question according to latest despatches from that province as follows: Halifax, April Vi.���������The government of Nova Scotia effected a radical change in its temperance policy yesiei- j day, when Attorney-General McLean {introduced into the legislature a pro- j hibitory'liquor bill. Hitherto the government legislation has been directed to strengthening the en force men I of the Canada Temperance act, as the federal liquor is called, or enacting Uiingent provincial license laws. There are two counties in this province, Halifax and Richmond, where ihe Canada Temperance act is in force. These are exempt from the provisions of the proposd prohibitory law, but all h rest of the province is brought under its scope. As regards Richmond, the law comes into force there with the ex- piary of the existing licenses. In the city of Halifax, prohibition shall not become effective until after the census of 1911, and after a majority of the ratepayers shall have voted against the license. , In the meantime, in Halifax, the power of granting licenses is taken from he city council and vested in a license board. The number of licenses after the expiary of those in force is reduced io V0, and following the census of 1911 there shall not be more than one license for each thousand of the population, inspector-iii-chief for the inforce- ment of the law will, under its provisions, be appointed by the government. The bill will come up for a second reading on Thursday. The Editor of The Western Call: Sir,���������Taking up your issue of the 8th inst., I was interested by the headlines ���������'Prof. Odium's Criticism on the 'New Theology,' by Mr. Campbell." I settled down to read, as I imagined, an intelligent criticism of a work whicii I had heard, but hot had the pleasure of reading. From the idea I held of the professor's literary and intellectual at- lainineiits, I anticipated an impartial, ���������"ntellectual and scholastic analysis of ;he book under review. Rut I was grievously disappointed. Instead of intelligent argument the professor indulged in most abusive and scurrilous attacks on Mr. Campbell, and introduces a vindictive personal element entirely uncalled for. His criticism on "New Theology," would be more correctly termed "Slanderous Abuse on the Author of "New Theology'." For invective he excels the renowned Mrs. Moriarty of Dublin fish- market fame "that the prostitute following Tier unhallowed calling, and the libertine seeking his innocent victim to destroy, but were exercising their God-given desires, and in their vile practices were groping in their quest for God, after that perfect peace and contentment which could only be found in living in harmony with His divine laws." I respectfully draw the professor's attention to the oneness of these two statements, the first of which provokes him to such vitrolic fury. He may siill hold to his opinion, but. in that case, Mr. Gale, probably in hearty accord with him on most points of his creed, has to share in the pleasure of being the recipient of the above choice expression of the professor. "A spewer of blasphemous lunacy." The professor says "Campbell talks too much." I would suggest it is a failing we arc all prone to. Now, sir, my only object in addressing you is to protest against such unseemly language in your columns, in what should be clean, spirited criticism. A man may hold different opinions from me, or even from the professor, and still be entitled to the same respect that we expect our honest opinions to receive. I know the professor slightly and hold him in considerable esteem. I have never seen or heard Mr. Campbell, and, as I have stated, never read a word of his writings beyond extracts introduced by the professor into his article, but I am iuclincd to think, on personal 'acquaintance, the professoi would find him a man worthy of admiration, and striving to do his part in the uplift of humanity, probably often doing his duty when tempted to evade it, to escape the opprobrium usually meted out to one who dares to be honest to his convictions when they run ���������ounter to those held by those who have regarded him as one of them. Yours, etc., C. ANDERSON. 1350 Park drive. Grandview. Pupils of Prof. T. Bonne Miller (TTe Delightful Entertainment.

COO. This amazing amount of wealth \ is owned by SO') such institutions, which contain more than fifty thousand inmates. In England centimes ago it was the amassing of great wealth by the monastic orders of the Roman church which hastened the reformation. Many of these orders were professedly under spleen on Mr. Campbell, the worthy professor must needs open his vials of wrath upon any who give him an intelligent hearing.) "Infinite humbug," "fool jugglar and libertine," "a spe we: of blasphemous lunacy." Well, sir, such a collection of "English" I have never before seen in print. Expressed in the heat of a particularly venomous personal quarrel, in some stratas of society, one may find some excuse for them; but when written in the cool atmosphere one would suppose a "criticism" to be written in, one can only stand aghast at such an exhibition of mud slinging by a. defende; if his creed. And especially when em anating from .such a source. As I have previously stated, I have never seen the book referred to. extracts from the professor's miscalled "criticism" in question comprising ali I have read, so I am in no position to enter into a controversy. But it doe- seem to me that the professor tries tc make n-mountain out of a mole hill, to create a false impression out of one of Mr. Campbell's statements, for the purpose of delivering a destructive onslaught upon it���������his own creation. He objects to the term 'infinite" us used by .Mr. Campbell, and goes into a haii- splitting dissertation as to the meaning of the term, when, unless one wilfully tries to misconstrue it, its meaning is obvious. And referring to page 153, "Men in their blank atheism, in their foul blat phemies are engaged in this dim. blundering quest for God." the beUicost professor expresses himself thus: "I Campbell were a dirty Tom Paine, or i filthy Voltaire, or a drunken aestheti ibeitine and a bar-room loafing so: (observe tbe select adjectives) I cou'd read the above blundering folly with delicacy of touch, we looked forward with pleasurable anticipation to hearing her on the lighter instrument i: Franz L-istz's "At rhe Spring," but w* were doomed to disappointment,.owin; to the length of the program this iteir being admitted.

These church funds weie withdrawn from taxation, which made the burdens of taxation fall all the heavier upon the common people. It is said that Cromwell ordered that the silver shrines of the Apostles which adorned the churches of his time should . be melted into money and u=ed for send iug the gospel to the poor. It would be a blessing to Russia if all the wealth which is piled up in nionastii o.ders were devoted to preaching t pure gospel to tbe people. anating from the City Temple oracle is to ret a jar. a shock. Ard again I ask is the man a fool, a Hyde-Jeckyll juggler, a libertine?"

True, rheie is a certain trininess that appeals as simplicity, but even the most inexpensive gingham or an ordinary per cale is apt io be much decorated. At the trimming counter there are cotton braids in all degrees" of fanciful effects u.nd rattail trimmings that often are combined with Indian beads or with buttons. Garnitures of cotton lace and Indian bead work are effective, as are some of the net trimmings that are hand-run after the manner of the silk embroidered laces that had such a vo- ,gue this winter. A VARIETY OF TRIMMINGS Linen bandings in Oriental patterns ire used with the heavier linens, and here are French embroidered bandings in all widths or in seis for skirt and ilouse decoration. Macreme cords ire fashioned into taper.try designs for 'landings or garnitures, and are so effective 'Int. they are not expensive whatever their cost.

They include many new colorings, and, where a single color, b.side the back - ground once held there are now innumerable color combinations such as cheerful greens and reds with alter - nating black stripes, gay checks, and blues, greens and redK, with even a dash of yellow. Madras, like linen, wears so well and bunders so satjs - factorily that it is a delight to wear it in the mornings, when it is a desirable change from the flimsy lingerie blouse that wilts m damp air. HAND - PRINTED LINENS Hand - printed linen shirtings will be utilized in tailored dresses, alter - nating with percales. The designs are in flower patterns and in 'dainty .stripes, flowers printed in between. Although these are supposed to be "strictly tailored," they are generally made with tucks and plaits and trimmed with a plain color matching that of the figure. Allover embroideries make smart blouses and some arc made in tailored effects, with strappings of plain material. Both blind and open work embroidery Is in favor, but, of course, there is always a penchant for English eyelet embroidery of whicii there are excellent imitations in machine-made pieces; Often these are combined with Valenciennes Insertion or with Clim- "������������������ ������������������"���������' ,- Irish.

The above was the subject of an able address given Sunday afternoon to the .Men's Meeting in the Mount Pleasan Methodist church, by Rev. Mr. Parker of the Central Baptist church. Mr. Parker's address was in reference to the "white plague." The speaker i. graphic, terms painted the horrors c its ravages. Giving many cases whi.:-h had come under his personal observation to illustrate the awful effect c this fell disease. He also pointed on the numerous'causes which led to i: spread, naming as chief anions then the habit of expectorating on ��������� .tht streets and the wearing of long, sweeping gowns by the women. He state; that in his opinion a civic bylaw sliouk. be enacted prohibiting expectoratin. on, the pavements ard crossings, i least, and should be avidly enforced and coupied with this a strong agit. tion against the long gowns common;., worn by 'ladies. The speaker in de.. ing wi h remedies or methods of lili stated that, much could be done t ameliorate the condi ions and to arrc-s the spread of the disease by observin_ the simple laws of hygiene, such a; I having open " windows in sleeping apartments, and care to have an abundance of fresh air in the house. The practising of deep breething and othe. simple lung exercises to develope and strengthen those organs so that the> will be able to throw off the bacterii of the disease. Then the speaker urged the necessity of large and up-to-datt sanitoriiiins under the control of tht government for the proper care o those who are the victims of the disease. The address was well received and called forth many varied expres.. sions of opinion on the subject b> those of the audience who spoke aftei wards, as is customary at those meet ings.

We found the seismograph registered the results of the r.t-aring and fur- ins; of Mars in its orbitlal journey; Ihe tidiil actions on the surface and within the planet's body and also tho .storms, eurtli quakes, avalanches and .heavy shearings of Mars. By "shearings" is meant the grinding, moving operations always in process on .the mountains. ent. Many of them are at times worse in their outward actions than they are deep down in their hearts. They feel that they are down, and in their hop- lessness at times grow fierce against, present, conditions. Iu this frame of mind they are desperat2 and have little, respect for law, order, and any honest attempts hy their fellow-workers to improve the economic conditions. It is most desirable to lessen the number of these men, and it is our boun- den duty to 'labour by every reason - able means not only to better their condition, but to prevent the constant and increasing additions to their numbers. . .- fundanienUil Third:��������� There is one element to often overlooked hi ihe con- I stiiution on platforms, in the leaching public speaking, and literature of the socialists and other h'bour orgauizat- solid inte/nal mass of the i ions. . That is the neglect of that side Miners, who tunnel and ! of the private individual and of society shaft into the solid rotk, know well that all sons of rock, even granites, rub, wear, move and grind internally throughout their mass, as sand or cheese would under powerful pressure which, -while steadily applied, would move constantly in the direction of its application. This is the true cause of a well known fact. There is no such thing to be found within the massive rock mountains as solid, very large blocks of stone. Quarry- men, as well as miners, soon discover that they run uecessaryily >' in short distances upon checks, flaws, cracks and breaks it, the rock. which is always dependent upon mora. holders, householders, merchants, and regular contributors, to the tax levie.. of the city and country. It is unreasonable ;i;d unjust tc male these men pay icll-tax and le, other similar business men and property holders go free. rihe poll - tax is a nuisance, a most irritating process, and might well be cut out, unless in relation to a very limited class. In any case we must legislate on the. j lines of justice, otherwise a commuu- | ity. unjustly making and enforcing I law. will quickly suffer in its weakest parts. And all know well that the most susceptible to tha pinch of injustice are the poor among the workers. And if any class should sow seeds of liberal and even handed justice so as to reap the richer and better, fruits of economic scpuility it is the working class. Therefore while 1 f-ivour cutting out or materially .modifying the scope of the poll-tax legislation. I oppose ������i colour line in this mutter. Second:��������� "Abolition of oriental labour iu minus, lumber'uig. fishing and railways." This is a large order and needs careful perusal, as well as much comparison in relation to int������vmitionnl trade ���������ind economics. What the "Platform" if. intended to do. is most surely this one thing:��������� It is intended to accom - plish the highest good to the com - selves beaten in . the contest, even ihough they had the whole field at the beginning. There is a waste of time in the past and present methods of dealing with Oriental'labour. The tact- ics coitld be changed to great advantage. Honestly, and openly give- such treatment to the Asiatic as will put him on a fiiendly and equitable footing, then with him in the labour unions as an equal with the Pole, Italian, Galician, Ruthenian, and the many other white natinalities, he will become a power, a' true co-worker ami a source of srfeugth t"> the cause of labour. So long is the white workers boas'1! in a coarse and brut.il manner that the Oriental is his- inferior, just so h tig will iho Oriental make him sweat in helplessness.

Let. us make Uiese few orientals ou<- working and organised friends, and then we are on But' I j the high road towards success, purpose T RIMB This breaking, quite irregular in ig- gneous rock, and somewhat regular in certain sedimentary rocks, comes from the- grinding or "shearing" process common to all parts of the earth-crust. Such then was the delicate nature of our seismograph and other instruments that we were able io measure the aforesaid vibrations : l'nivly accurately read their meanings, tabulate them, and lay them aside for use. In this maimer we .settled down to the translation of the vibrations that came from Mars but which did not arise in the ordinary way. We made sure that we could see certain, laws through these subtle and most remarkable vibrations. We determined to give our Will attention to the more prominent which occurred at regjilar intervals. Here began the finding of the key to our solution. 1st. We discovered that periodically there was one set of vibrations set in motion, and by examining old discs from various stations over the world, we perceived they took place when the earth and Mars were in conjunction aud:in opposition. Turn we saw that. there were N times as many vibrations to correspond with conjunction as there were in opposition. Here indeed was intelligence speaking, for we knew ^that-the gravitaLeffectpf Mars _ upon the earth and vice versa in conjunction is exactly N times as ;,veat as when they are in opposition. By this we concluded 1st,, that there are intelligent, beings or Mars. 2nd., that they have advanced iii electric, telegraphic and other knowledge. 3rd. that they have advanced in astromical knowledge. 4th., that they were try-, tweeu the socialists and' the original labour unions is steadily and wisely coining to an end. After long study and close observation 1 am forced to say that the socialist plan of winning what, they require by parliamentary legislation, is more effective and sure of final success, than the original plan . of using the strike to gain the desired ends. The strike at best is a poor, makeshift, and should he used, only j when all other means fi.il. Education legislation and moderation in solving the complex and complicated lems are better machines than noise, fticks, stones, strikes, pickets 'and mob-law. Now a few words on the items of the Platform. First:-"The abolitioi of the poll-tax for whitemen." The poll-" tax is a cl.imsy nuisance. ���������m- the most part, and no serious lo.s would follow its'sepulture. And yet it seems to be to wi-.e to make certain persons pay towards 'heir protection, while they are in a civilised community. -I, however, think thi word "white- men" is object ional. *\ here are many negroes. Chiname.n, Jaoanese, Hindoos r.nd some others who could' not be called whitemen, in the sense in which the term is frequently used by our workers, and yet they are property- I <; t ��������� t u-j la-f r''������ Pievenr the Asiatics from work j in the mines, -fisheries, railways and n addition to the many other limitations imposed upon them, is practically to make pf-upers of them. Cut off the means of making a living and they must become paupers, starve to death or leave the country. If our commonwealth do not want Asiatics, then prevent, them from coming, but when they are permitted to enter within our shores, then they must be permitted- to keen themselves alive by earning .their living. This means work exactly where, they can get and to do the work offered. On the other hand our workers who wish to keep high remuneration for f ���������'- '.. .._!.���������������������.������ their work, make a false move by so-[���������������������������->������������������������������������:���������������������������..:..���������������>.*.} nrol> -1 treating the Asiatic,as is proposed in ���������i this platform. " Instead of meeting ��������� with the comparatively few orientals in Canada.on a friendly and fraternal footing, and thus drawing them into the labour and social organisations as allies, from the very first the white workers pursued a otv.irse of ostracising, browbeating, belittling; and abusing. The result is that "the Orientals go their own gait, get work where they can. undersell labour, and return o. retaliation of a most unmerciful sort. The white worker finds the Asiatic the winner in the realms of enmramn labour, and sadly learns that his past brutal and ' isolating course has made him so helpless, that he has to call noon the whole community to come to his aid, and rescue him by unjust legislation. Our white workers, who too commonly boast of their superiority, find them- By the present course our white workers constantly array both political parties, all labour employing.men, and corporation, a very large percentage of the eole. including every kind of man who stands for justice and manly fairplay, against- their spirit and ruling methods. . ��������� ��������� *- ������ * i * REALTY CO.

M. Odium's Criticism universe, is the product of consciousness." "Matter, the visible universe, is consciousness." "The physical universe is consciousness." Therefore consciousness is a "mode of language, an expression of thought, a condition of thought, and exists only in the mind and for the mind." The City Temple applauds and cries out: Behold the man! Page 228. "Heaven and hell are states of the soul." But since I am God, Campbell is God and all is God, then heaven and hell are states of God. Page 230. "Being what we are we cannot permanently rest in anything less than the love of God." To this 1 say,-being what we are, we can never rest permanently in anything. But Campbell's words when lined up with his teachings in this book, his New I heology, are senseless, since he is God; and God is the universe. Page 230. "The one unthinkable supposition from this point of view is that any kind of being which has ever become aware of itself, that is, has ever contained a ray of eternal consciousness, can perish." Let us boil this down, and we get this short statement: No being, self conscious, can per- FOR in (To be continued next week.) is/i. The "can perish" may mean can be annihilated or perish in helh I take it that the author means the former. So far as~ I see there need be no objection raised here. If he mean the latter, then his statement runs foul of his pantheism. But this statement of his may fairly open the question of the animal creation. v If a dog, an elephant, or an ape be aware of itself, then it cannot perish. No comment is necessary here, for the reason we have no sure data on which to base a useful discussion. Page 234. "After the Great Captivity in Babylon the Jews were never without a foreign master, and the Northern Kingdom of Israel disappeared i from history." j Campbell is one of the few writers who have hit historic truth in relation to the "Northern Kingdom of Israel." However he may mean that this kingdom disappeared finally from history, never to emerge again. If so, he; is wrong. i But it is important and'pleasing to find that he admits that the Kingdom of Israel did not merge into'the Kingdom of Judah, as most writers incorrectly hold. 75 feet by 90 feet on the Corner of Eighth and Quebec A Splendid site for an Aparment House The cheapest buy in the whole neighborhood Only $14,000 ~ Easy terms H, Stevens & Co. 317 Pender THE WESTERN CALL, VANCOUVER.

The character and possibilities of the propositions undertaken will have the benefit of the careful investigation of the company's experts and the filial approval of its Directors before presentation to the public. This wil be invaluable' alike to the enterprise, and to the investor. - ��������� . ��������� .- ��������� ��������������� ��������� Real Estate Values Must be Maintained and Developed by Stable Industrial Enterprises. The commercial and industrial progress of a community is the only basis of true value. ��������� ��������� ' . .'���������.'. Industrial enterprise makes payrolls. ' Payrolls make a city. Industrial enterprise swells the population: gives life to trade; puts money into circulation, and increases the value of property. It underlies all wealth.

' . Our vast wate" now"?' *vill develop many million hwrse-power. The iiniuer.se coal fields with their supplies for hundreds of years to come, will give heat and energy incalculable. Power is cheap. The supply is inexhaustible. Practically all known minerals are mined in the Province. T>:nber is obtainable in any quantity f*r almost any purpose; The sea and the rivers afford the choicest quality of h'o>. The high average temperature encourages continuous activity in nearly all li������*s of industry. It gives open harbors the year through. These v������st possibilities are now handicapped by lack of capital. And This Capital Can Be Obtained as soon as the investing public at home and abroad realizes the enormous opportunities offering in the industrial field of business enterprise. Through the London Office of this Company a '.-lose touch Avillbe kept with British capita), with a view to flotation and issue-on the Europium markets of'propositions too large for the local market. The profits of British Columbia enterprises are becoming keenly appreciated in the Old Country, and the Company's arrangements for introducing new capital have been most carefully made. Through connections in St. Paul large tracts ot British Columbia farm lands will be placed before the ever-increasing ontmunity of American settlers migrating from the older states to the Northwest. Already a large interest is being manifested in the wonderful fertility of British Columbia &oilj and its temperate climate. Investment Department The sanie care and thoroughness that is given to every branch of the Organiza- tion Department, will be applied to the Investment Department, where local clients may feel -confident'that any funds invested through the company, are placed only in enterprises' of the highest character and promise, such -as the company itself is prepared to underwrite or invest in. It is the aim of the Company to become the standard investment exchange of the province, where, through the most modern ami efficient system applied to-every branch of its business, and the most careful scrutiny of every proposition handled, investors will be protected as much as it is humanly possible to be, while sharing in the great industrial-progress that is taking place in British Columbia to-day, aud that will continue for many years to come. ��������� Factories Must Come to Vancouver **-Tri five years" is the official announcement of the Vancouver Information atid Tourist Association, "Vancouver should become the greatest manufacturing centre in Western Canada aud in the lifetime of many now living, one of the foremost ou ���������this continent. But this will not come to pass without effort. Despite onr unrivalled natural advantages, if the people of this generation want to see here "a forest ol7tall ���������chimneys," in their time, they will have to get busy. fither cities are not, sleeping on their opportunities or making a secret of their advantages. The biggest and most prosperous, as well as the younger, among them are reaching" out for things that will do them good���������and are getting them. Vancouver should do the same���������and do it now. Delav in this, as in most other matters, is dangerous. Cities could be named whose phenomenal early progress obscured the heed of such action. But the need existed, none the less, and the cities in question reaped the harvest of their neglect of it in an abrupt cessation of growth and shrinkage of realty values and revenjie that had nothing to justify them in what were practically non-producing communities." This Company, under the most experienced management possible to obtain, and backed by business men of Vancouver of the highest integrity and ability, men whose lives have been spent in the advancement of our Province, will endeavor to put into practical operation the aspirations of the citizens in bringing about this era of commercial and industrial activity. In this space, from time to time, au- iioun������-eMK'!its of the organization or reorganization of manufacturing concerns will' be made. ;!,<! our representatives will call upon the investing public of the Province, showing in more detail than is possible by advertisement, the opportunist* ^ ' \\ . . ... which these .commercial propositions offer to the conservative investor, giving absolute security and at the same time advancing the interests of our City arid Province. Every proposition, either for Organization or Investment, will be carefully considered, and the small investor "will receive the same courteous attention as the capitalist.
