According to returns brought down Saturday the Inception of the Grand Trunk project Its promoters had serious thoughts of making Port Simpson the terminus of its line, but in April. 1906, a formal application for Indian landa on Digby island, Kaien island and the Tsimphsean reserve was made. Tba Brltlah Columbia government refused to waive Its interest on the ground that one of the chlet considerations which Induced the government of the province! to recommend partially a tree grant ot 10,000 acres to the Gaanrt Trunk Pacir- lc waa tbe belief that if the western terminus ot the railway were located on the land sold, the value of the provincial government's reserves, adjacent thereto, and ot the reversionary interest of tha province in these Indian lands, would be greatly enhanced and a great benefit to the province would thereby likely accrue. For this reason the provincial government declined to waive Its Interests. The conditions of the grunt as stated tn be are as follows: Last fall the Indian department undertook to dispose of the land aaked for by the Grand Trunk Pacific on the express stipulation that the company would accept tho lands without recourse against the Dominion in case of the establishment of any claim in respect of reversionary interest in reserve by the province ot British Columbia. The Grand Trunk Pacific accepted this condition; then A. W. Vowell, Indian agent at Victoria secured their surrender from the Indians, tho price being 17.60 an acre. The correspondence since has had to do with surveys of the land preparatory to the issue of a patent. CRIMINAL NEGLIGENCE. Farmer Drives for Fuel and Leavea Family to Freeze. Winnipeg,- Feb. 11.���Arthur Congdon. a wholesaler has received word from n merchant at Alameda, that a German -settler's wife and five children wero found frozen to death eight days ago in their farm bouse, 20 miles north ot Blenfalt. The farmer had gone Into the village to get fuel. There was no difficulty in securing the fuel there, but he went to Eatevan where he became the worse for liquor, and on arriving home three daya later, discovered that every member ot hla family had perished during his absence through being without fuel. There waa no storm and it was simply a matter of neglect, it Ib alleged, on the part of the husband and father that caused the tragedy. The settler was a new-comer. Every stick of furniture in the house and even flooring had been burned by them in their terrible fight against tho frost. Fair Wage Officer. Victoria, Feb. 11.���J. D.

That it is responsible and even b'amable for this degeneracy may also be granted- To fix the blame upon an individual journal is however not so easy a task.. The journal which espouses any particular political cause 01 sei of political principles Is in the posl tion of a special leader whose business ii is to convince the Jury���which In thb particular case is the public���ol the ngbtousness of its cause . iih material for such appeal / nol only the facts in a given case bul li must pay some heed to the attitude of Its political and Journalistic opponents., A blow struck below the belt by a political journal Is a temptation to hit back aud unfortunately there Is a large section of thc rtaders of the public press whose only knowledge of the virtue of a case is when a knock out blow is administered It has become so much a matter of cone ment that any fool can run a hewapapei that the saying has passed Into a prov fill. Itm the facts are against the contention., The most serious and stren uous business in the world is tbe con duct of a daily Journal. With an elee tion at stake it may sometimes happen lhal the bounds of propriety and sometimes the bounds of truth are over steppe^ ,u the conduct of an appeal to the people. That thla Is done -wilfully and with malice aforethought is not often to be charged.. Where the charge cau Ijp truthfully urged the situation Is Indeed lamentable. We think, however, with respect to the elections just over, that the news papers BUpporUng the government have been as free from venality as any In the history of journalism in Canada. H reckle dlsn gat d nl i.m g&d mt Brtonsble publication of fiction are to bo charged at all these must be charged to the opposition.. We believe that the British Columbia journals who have supported the administration of Premier McUride have done so because they have ha I the Interests of the provlnoe at heart and that such considerations as the continued welfare ol the country have weighed more than political preferences.. At ihe same time it has been necessary to defend the government against a campaign of slander rarely equalled in the political history of Canada. In seeking to fix the blame for ethical degeneracy In the press it is necessary lo discover wbo are the originators and perpetratoi b of falsehood and hypocrisy in political campaigns and we sha'l maintain the opinion that Rev, Mr. Graham should have been more explicit in his references to the degeneracy of the press, A few citations of the spirit and letter criticized by the learned rhetorician would perhaps have nailed the blame for conditions which, as we have said, are generally admitted. When all is said, however, there is room for much improvement in the conduct of political campaigns, both by the party press and the by the campaign orators who conduct the contest. These Improvements will be effected only when the public set themselves against the wrongdoers and compel that respect for public decency whicli is the right of every dtlsen. Mr, Graham's paper, owing to the prominence it has attracted, will do good because it calls attention to an evil which should be easily remedied. It is a pity that the academic nature of the discussions of the University Club should have so little Interest for the general public. This extended reference to the subject is made in the hope that discissions which are really of wide Interest should be more participated in by the general public than at presenl, runt": BENTIMENI aovahi in*. Railways Not Private but Public Highways. THE LESSON OF THE WINTER. The extremely cold weather which hat* prevailed this winter in western Canada and in the northern states has caused considerable comment on account of the blockading of trains hy heavy snows and th*" scarcity of fuel. The fuel question would not have be* come acute had it been possible to run trains with the freedom and celerity which has been the rule during former Winters. There is no reason why the experiences of this winter should be accepted as character isi ic of th country for the season has been abnormal In respect of cold, snowfall and wind. Hard winters are to be expected In anj northern latitude and the fact that for several seasons past contrary conditions have prevailed led many to forget the truth of the old saying that an ounce of pi event ion is worth a pound of cure. The winter has been severe, but other portions of the continent have exepri- enced cold dips as well as the Canadian West and th" northwestern states. Down on the Atlantic seaboard for a time unusual severity of climate prevailed, and in Quebec, according to reports, ihe thermometer sank considerably beyond the lowest reading recorded in Winnipeg or westward. The menace of the whole situation in the West is iho lack of fuel in many towns and districts. This is aggravated by tlie fact that the railroads have heen largely crippled owing to snow blockades and the immense difficulty of relieving so many different points in a manner that might be permanent and effective. If everyone was well supplied with fuel the severity of the weather would be Inconsequential- The whole experience has an important lesson for the people or the country and for the railways. The fuel situation sliould lie provided for early in the season. |n fact before the rush of wheat traffic has been began. Such a precau* Hon would doubtless be unnecessary In nine oases out of ten, but the avoiding of experiences such as the country hah bad to face this year, even If tlie conditions occurred only lhat often, would amply repay the taking Of forehand measures In other nine seasons. Thc fuel supply is a problem which cannot be lightly treated uny more by the people of western Canada. If Individual efforts and community efforts cannot solve the problem H must become a question for guvernmnts. There is fuel available and easily available, if ir is procured in proper Benson, LO make innocuous the severest Winter. In every district, town or city, where tho supply is depend nt on railway transportation concerted action is necessary to avoid a scarcity in exceptional winters.. Such a scarcity does needless harm to the country lo say nothing of the privations and sufferings of those directly affected. Public opinion is travelling fast. In a recent address of muTf** than ordinary ability, Judge Gayiior of New York, made the somewhat startling statement thai railroads are not private roads but public highways, and tbey cannot be operated as though they belonged to a private individual, but musl be operated as though they existed for the public, as indeed they do. If they were private roads they could then allow one man 10 travel over them or to use them in shipping go:ids, and they would be per* fectly justified in refusing i��> allow another a b I miliar privilege. Bul public opinion lias long ago passed ihe point where it would justify such discrimination, and now we assert openly the right to abolish any rebates and charge uny rates that would place "ne man or one community at a disadvantage as compared with another. After all. the rail- toads may make their rates Hnd arrange their schedules, but f*_. people, even In non-socialistic and. as some think, conservative Canada, even bere the people claim the right to say what is a fair passenger or freight truiff, and we seem t_ be advancing more or less rapidly toward what win be virtually public ownership. In all but name, of these great national highways., There are two principles that should guide ua in our advance along this line first, we must tie;,t the railroads faith ; secondly, they must treat us fairly; and it should be our endear-.r to embody these principles in all legislation on these matters.

Boston, Fob. n.���Prostdent J. G. Se.hurmaii, at Cornell university, and Morrln Hillqiilt, the Socialist, dlBCUsned "Indlvidualliim vs. Socialism" at the People's Forum lu lhe New Rochelle theaire last week. Presldenl Btiburmaa described Socialism as a drenjm aud an illusion. "Socialism is the ownership of all machinery of public production, and is only an Ues in a man's head," said the professor, "bui which will never exist." "No generation can lay down rules which win in- binding upon succeeding KtneiUiinns," he said. "The conditions ami ihe evils of a generation must be met hy that generation. So far as ihe government function is concerned, I am one of those who believe that the less we are governed the better, but every emergency must be met and settled according to the exigencies of the case, and alKive ail we must see that justice is done." Prof. Schurman described the conception of Socialism as a voluntary combination of labor and capltul. In the place of labor and capital he said this Socialism would bring about co-operative companies, themselves owning the capital aud dividing the property. "This is a brand of Socialism," he continued, "which would appeal lo a*!! English-speaking peoplp. It appeals to us thai it is based upon the old-fashioned virtues of individual industry and individual intelligence. This experiment has beeu tried in England and Germany, and I understand has been successful." Speaking of the accumulation of wealth he said: "A few years ago. in this country, one could count all the men of millions on his fingers, but now we are all familiar witli millionaires, and even with billionaires. In the presence of so much wealth we are apt to forget the general prosperity. Some people are too quick to cry that the few have been enriched through the impoverishment of the many. The truth is that we are all richer and better off, because there has been such an accumulation of wealth. Our very rich men are a help to us so long as they invest their money in enterprises which furnish employment for labor. They only hurt the public when they squander wealth. The danger that I see is not ln swollen fortunes, but In mease���a stolen fortunes. I want to make it clear that a fortune, although big, Is not bad. I want to make it clear that we would be bettor off if our fortunes were larger. The danger Is not in the fortunes, bul In the way In which they are made." Mr. Hfllquii denied that Socialism wiis an impotent force and an Illusion. The movement embraced 2C.000.000 people. "The Socialism of today," said he, "aB understood by Socialisis waB mentioned only passingly by Dr. Schurman when he spoke of the Socialism of Karl Marx. That Socialism calls for the public ownership not only of public utilities, but of all Instruments of production. It stands for co-operative ownership and the ownership and enjoyment of all capital and wealth produced by labor. 'What is before us loday," said he. "is no longer the individual worker of a hundred years ago. Within the last century the mode of wealth produced has undergone a tremendous change. Machine production, the factory system, the concentration of wealth has brought about a routine system of goods absolutely Independent of the captains of Industry. Take Ihe millionaire. How did he earn his millions or billions? Dr. Schurman will say by his own thrift, ability or ingenuity. I say with men like Rockefeller, and Morgan, ability is a secondary consideration. The first consideration Is, that they happen to control the railroads, mines and factories. These men own stocks in mines oue day; the next day they sell their stocks and buy interests in lailroad industry. The question with me is how they are able to attain such wonderful skill with so little experience, The only thing that haB remained in- dustriallstic is the individualistic appropriation of wealth.
