PRINCETON, B.C., SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 10/ 1906. a Year, in Advance TELEPHONE CHANGES \ *-j Old System was Unsatisfactory . for the Public and had Serious Defects. Superintendent Stevens Makes Explanation—Conditions Changed in Public Interest'. The Star gladly publishes a letter from; the superintendent of the government tilephone line of which the following paragraph forms the text-: '*> " The Star feels the need of a telephone in the office, but we don't feel like hiring . a staff of bookkeepeis-and putting ^a stop watch or two on the job to keep tab on the business. C. S. Steven^ superintendent of the telephone service1, would confer a favor on the public b)'explaining just why'tbenew system was inaugurated." Editor Star—Sir : I clipped the enclosed slip from your issue of October 27 and beg to assure you that I have no objections whatever in giving the fullest reasons to the public wliy I found it necessary to make a change in the system of operating the telephone line. The sole object in making the change was that the general public "might have a more efficient' service. 'The System under which the line was first installed and operated was the worst that any trunk line could be operated under, namely, the placing of subscribers attached to the trunk line at a monthly rental with deadhead privileges' to use the line at pleasure. The telephone* line is divided into sections as follows: Kamloops. to Nicola; Nicola to Lower Nicola; Nic&la to Hedley; Hedley to Kelowna, and Kelowna to Vernon. Upon these various sections between Kamloops and Vernon there are forty-two subscribers attached to the trunk line with deadhead privileges, for which a monthly rental was paid, entitling them to free business over the line. The said deadhead privileges were so abused by the subscribers that it became almost impossible to get the business of the general public over the fine. Subscribers would get on the line and talk with other subscribers for an indefinite period on subjects of the most senseless concern and would even refuse to leave the line when told it was wanted for paid business. Occurences were frequent of the business of the general public being delayed for hours in order that an opportunity might be had of getting it over the line. As an illustration of how this condition of things worked, I might cite the following : A party between Hedley and Kelowna would have business with Kamloops or someone on the Kamloops-Nicola section. The party would first have to get thejine 'from an issue point to' Hedley, perhaps only to find that the Hedley-Nicola section was in use. While ■waiting for that section to become clear someone would take the Hedley-Kelowna section froth him. When1 successful in getting the Hedley-Kelowna and Hedley- >Nicola section' clear, he then ran the gauntlet ..to find 'the Kamloops-Nicolaj sectipn in useu While waiting for that section to beiiome disengaged' he was liable tg interruption from the first two: sections. If you will refer to columns of .papers printed in Vernon, Kelowna, Pen tictorj- and—Hedley, -you will find the generai public complaining of these delays. Upon investigating complaints of dglays iriW'fr'dtfsmissfbn of; messages I found several cases where.they were tied dp for .four or. fiivei.-h-dtirs at a stretch, being unable to get on the linedo send them. Applications were coming fri from all quartersfor remuneration for services for doing business for the line, when nine- tenths of the business done was deadhead, nothing being received in return. These were the conditions existing when I found it necessary to institute a ichange, cance.ling deadhead privileges :over the entire lineand paying our" agents a commission upon all business'- done, 'including their own, and allowing them to charge a messenger rate for bringing outsiders to the 'phone. r I trust you will give the same publicity to this that you gave to the attached slip, which will inform the people that the change was made in their interests. Yours truly, ■Chas. S. Stevens, <$j5f' Superintendent. Kamloops, Nov. I, 1903. „ . ILLEGAL TRAPPING. Olin and Johnston Charged with Illegally Taking Beaver—A Serious Offence. Game Warden Hewat and Jim Snowden went tip to the Roche river district the .first of the week to investigate reported illegal taking of beaver by trappers. They found the report to be only too true, having fdundtha't Olin and Johnston had taken and had in their possession two beaver. The animals were confiscated and the trappers summoned to appear and answer to the charge. The case was to come up before Justice of the Peace Waterman on Friday evening. NICKEL PLATE "ASSAYER.

It is written : Thou shalt drink a little coffee for thy stomach's sake and for thine oft infirmities. Why not drinic the best roasted coffee freshly ground. To be had only at the A. E. Howse Co. L'd. The first snow of the season fell on Wednesday, but c wing to the mild state of the weather is not likely to last long. ] TELEPHONE RECONSTRUCTION. D. A. Carmichael, inspector of the reconstructing portions of the Dominion telephone line, has been on a tour of inspection from Bradshaw's to Snowbreak, near Aspen Grove,; returning to Princeton Monday last. The work of erecting poles is progressing favorably and is done by contracts let in sections as follows : From Snowbreak to D. L. Munro's, 339 poles, to Jas. Brown ; from Munro's to Thynne's, 547 poles, to Martin Bres- nik ; from Thynne's to Granite creek, 439 poles, to J. Amberty ; from Granite creek to Bromley's 557 poles, to John Bromley ; from Bromley's to Bradshaw's, 365 poles, to John Knudson. When there are about ten' miles of poles up the wire stringers will make a start putting up the line and it is fully expected that by Xmas time the work will be completed. Mr. Carmichael left again on Thursday for Aspen Grove, and he will be kept right on the move from now on until the completion of this work. AN EXPLANATION. Editor Star—Sir : Referring to your account of an accident to an Indian woman at Granite creek in last week's issue of the Star you animadvert rather strongly on my refusal to proceed until guaranteed my fee. Will you allow me to explain that in an interview I held last summer with Mr. Irwin, the Indian agent, I was informed that I had nothing to do. with medical attendance on Indians, that they were provided for by two other doc-' tors, one at Hedley the other at Nicola. • It was only natural, therefore, that I should tell the local authorities that, application should, in the first place, be made to one or other of these doctors. I also expressed my willingness to pro- ' ceed, if required, but pointed out that already on two occasions ,on trips up the/ valley I had had to pay my own live:y expenses, and had as yet, not received anything whatever in return. Just why the doctor should be the only philanthropist in such cases, I am unable- to see. There was no other delay on my part. The delay, if any, was due to the fact that the livery stable keeper had a horse at the forge with his shoes off. I trust, in fairness to myself, that you will kindly insert this letter. J. E. Schon. Princeton, 27th Oct., 1906. MIX-UP OF NAMES. A serious blunder was made in the Star's report of the Liberal convention last week, wherein "Nick" Pickard and T. D. Pickard, road superintendent, are made to appear one and the same person. The former is the very antithesis of the latter, insomuch that he is a staunch believer in Liberalism and progress while T. D. is a follower of Mr. Shatford. The apology of the Star is tendered "Nick" for the mix-up, with the promise that, more care will be exercised in future reports.

The recent convention held in Vancouver for the purpose of forming a united labor party in this , Province agreed to disagree shortly after convening. The Socialistic wing wanted to run tbe whole show , to suit themselves, and the anti- Socialists refused 'M to submit to any such scheme; consequently there was a split, the anti- Socialists (the real labor element, and the men who have the interests of the workingman at heart) left the convention and gathered in other quarters, forming themselves into the Canadian Labor Party of British Columbia. Referring to the disruption in the labor ranks, the Vancouver World says: "There is much more in the split that has driven the good elements of the labor party from the organization than would appear at .first glance, and when time has been afforded to go through the lengthy proceedings and arrive at .an intelligent conclusion we think it will be found that the Local Government had an important influence in shaping the course of the majority (the Socialists). At Victoria the Government failed to get a hearing. Their effort to inject Mr. Hawthornthwaite, the Socialist leader, with his peculiar views, into the arena there, was defeated by a vote of 67 to 8. At Vancouver their scheme was successful. Mr. Davidson, the only labor member in the House, a Socialist and an unswerving supporter of the Government in all their schemes, managed things so adroitly as to divide the convention and drive the delegates who stand for everything that is good and decent from the hall. The sheep are now separated from the goats. The labor men pure and simple are gathered in one fold and the Socialists who, if we are to judge from the admissions of their leader, are a distinctly, disloyal organization, are left to their own devices. T.he position of the Government is a peculiar one. The Socialists will nominate a ticket in every district and the Government must put up candidates in opposi- , lion or support the Socialist ticket. In either case they are between the devil and the deep blue sea, while the opposition, who are practically unpledged, will vote so.idly for men whose loyalty is unquestioned and who will njt be tbe tools of great corporations or join bands of foreign adventurers for the spoila- tion of the Province. The sky is clearing and people are beginning to see political things as they are, not as they seem." It seems to us that tbe best and only sensible thing for the labor party to do is to join hands with the Liberal party, a party that stands out for the rights of the workingmen, and has fought the laboring man's battle in this Province on more than one occasion. If they continue to be blind to the fact that, their true interests and those of the Liberal party are practically identical, and insist on running independent candidates, they will defeat their own ends and play into the hands of their enemies— the Conservatives and Socialists. Socialism may be all right, but those at the head of the Socialistic party in this Province have shown themselves to be all wrong, and instead of promoting laboring interests, they have allied themselves with a party that has gone out of its way to impose burdens on the masses. The policy of the government that the Socialists have been keeping in power, "tbe first Conservative Government British Columbia ever had" has been to recklessly handle the finances of the country, scatter millions in cash and lands to grafters, instead of preserving these things for tbe people, and then raise the taxes to provide the necessary money to keep the machinery going. If this is true Socialism we want none of it. Let the labor party look to their best interests and they will see the wisdom of joining a party who are in sympathy with their views and interests. NOTES AND COMMENTS. The Nelson Canadian lets the McBride cat out of the bag when it tells the public that the Premier declined the $1,000,000 offer of Mr. Whitney, because he feared that should he accept it the Opposition would say that he got too little, says the World. So the Province is to be worked up into fever heat ofcecession because the Premier feared that the Opposition would make capital out of his course at the conference. What an evidence of Ministerial pusillanimity is presented if the Canadian.s statement is a fact. Had we a Premier who. was able enough and bold enough to stand on bis own bottom, like the tub, all this hubbub would have been avoided. In the House last winter the Premier asked the assistance of the leader of the Op- Cut Glass $5.22_Bowl /jNLY as manufacturers ^■^ is it possible for us to offer our special eight-inch Cut Glass Bowl at $5.00, packed at our risk and car* riage paid to your door.

After the item on page one, referring to illegal catching of beaver was in print, it was decided to bring the case on in the afternoon and it came up at one o'clock before Justice of Peace Water- mau. The witnesses against the accused were Constable Hewat and Jim Snowden, who actedas guide for the constable. They testified to finding two beaver skins in the possession of Messrs. Olin and Johnston, who admitted they owned the traps which caught the animals, but claimed the traps had been set for otter. After summing up the evidence, Mr. Waterman imposed a fine of $50 for each skin and #53 costs or in default thirty days in jail. The fine was paid. It is to be hoped this will have the effect of making trappers more careful in keeping within the law. A meeting of the Board of License Commissioners was to have been held on Thursday evening at 4 o'clock, but on account of necessary quorum failing to materialize, the sitting was adjourned for two weeks.
