Boycotting is enntagous htse, and visitors will incur the risk ot contracting the disease, which up to th» preterit is confined to this town A guilty community is shmutled ih gloom, and under such conditions there can be no genuine amusement. Provincial Police Constable Forres« t»r ha» been officially notified that his ■ervico» will be' dispensed with one mouth fron date. Tili» is the result of the recent investigation intou num bar of serious charges pi eferred and proven against 1'iarrestur. Under cer- tuiti conditions, h'«wevor, it is possible That horrible innovation in "religious" circles, known as "the experience social," was eqacted in the Ymir Presbyterian church on Tuesday evening lait, tho usual objeot boing to ruise funds. Some of the experiences given would .make »n ordinary Christian blush. It was noticeable that none of the lady enthusiasts had the sael ex perience ot doing without a new spring bonnet to swell the exchequer of the Lord, Manager Barnhart, of the Ymir Mine, reports the returntfor tho month of March, 1904 by cable, as follows: 45 stamps ran 30 days and oruahod 3,300 ton» (2,000 lbs.) of ore'producing 870 ounces bullion. The estiiAat ed realisable value (gross) of the pro - duct i» 19,000. 370 tons concentrates «hipped, gross valuo estimated 17- 780.

There has been expended durieig the month on development, $800. The ordinary monthly meeting of the Ymir Citizens' Association wa» summoned for Tuesday evening last and although the butines» wo» an« nounued as "important," tho secretary did not turn up with the minute book, nor did the mem bees appear in sufficient force to form a epioruin. The niukel«in-tlie-slut<agent«ieoretary evidently thought business interests would be better served at »n experience social under church auspices, and wend« ed his way thence. There was ne min« ute book, no «ecrelary, no quorum, and hence no "important" business transacted.

Both of the Japanese who committed the murderous assault havo lieen arrested. Saunders says that during the tnejee, the Japanese fought with the ferocity of wild beasts. NELSON BILLINGSOATB, (From the Kçonomist.) For the past three weeks or so, John Houston has been at the coast making arrangments, it is understood, for the installation of a job printing plant, Daring the absence of this gentleman of the old school, the Tribune has been under the supervision of an irresponsible individual named Peck MrSwuin, It is suggested that McSwaiti is assist- ed by William Blaketnore, whose vet« satility as actor, orator nnd author is to well known Whether the us« sociation is creditable to Mr. Blake more or discreditable to McSwain wo know not. But we do know that the Tribune of the past two or three week« fully emphasizes the oft-repeated at,' sertion of The Economist that the immigration laws of Canada need to bo revised at once. Tho children' of the slums of Europe have become a - menace to tho well being of the Do« minion. Without nny conception of what is decent they becoiuo u charge on the community, eitlior as street lneiidicanls or inhabitants of the in- .tilutioni maintained at public expense for restricting the activity of the vicious and degenerate. If we had proper immigration laws, strictly enforced, it is unlikely that McSwain would ever bar» been pot in it ted to land. It is an ui.« fortunate policy which permits the scum of Europe to enter our country and by the aid of our common schools freely opened to them, to acquire sufficient oducatiein to collaborate with Mr. Blakemore in the editorship of the Tribune. A ejiobo in private life is disgusting, but comparatively innocuous, as editoi, even of the Tribune, he is a public nuisance. Sidney S. Saunders, well and favor* ably known iu this district, is once again um 1er the doctor's care. The following ia from a Coast exchange juit to hand: On Saturday afternoon the foreman uf the Sidney sawmill discharged eight Japanese helpers because buaiuets diil nut warrent keeping them on. Two of the Japanese litter pick ed a quarrel with th» foreman who was accompanied by Sidney S. ÎSaun- dots, insistant foieinan, and word» led to blows. The Japanese flew at the two whiteuien armed with a knife and axo. Tho unarmed whiteuien defended themselves as well as thoy could, but received ghastly wound* about the heuei and body. Saunders A SOCIAL BLOT. The old Duke of Cambridge received u magnificent funeral tho other day —tho greatest funeral of an English soldier since thut of Wellington. The King and Queen wore there in the AL« bey. The report goes on to say: 'Thereafter the body of the "old Duke," as he was affectionately known to tl a public, was taken to Ketisal Ureen Cemetery and buried beside that of his morganatic wife. Among the principal mourner» went Admiral and Colonel Kiwgeorge, the lnte Duke's sons." The King of Kngluud would do a poplar thing if he »hoa/ed his respect for the marriage velntion us viewed by all hit subjects by repudiating one« and for ever that disgraceful German thing known as a morganatic marriage. An Knglish woman ought to tie good enough for the wifu of «ny English prince The late duke's wife was a worthy woman, and her sons uro re- spec-ted iu tho highest circlets in E inland. What the King should do is Ui eiinhlo the oldest son, simply us a protest against a miserable (ieritiiiu piece of snobbery. Tiie pretensions of Oeriiian royalty to be above: earthly law und custom—iu claim to a kind of divinity that is sacrilegious, is doubly sacrilegious when it involve« the. sanctity of marriage. There can't be twe> kinds of marriage relation even for pliures in E'iglniiil. — Ferule was visited by a elieasti-oiis tire yesterday morning, that pttctieally wipsil out the iusinest section of the town, involving a loM of I-'-00,000 id H'iôO 000, with insurance.aggregating, in llie neighborhood of ?2."i0,000.
