C, FRIDAY, DECEMBER 12, 1913\n$1.00 PER YEAR\n_.**\nrt-\nThe   Doukhobors'   Leader\nForbids Sick Persons to\nSummon Physician\nNelson Residents Interested\nConcerning Outrages in\nthe District\nResidents of tbe city of Nelson\nand district are deeply interested in\nrevelations made to a newspaper\ntbere regarding Doukhobor outrages\nof recent date. It appears tbat\nPeter Veregin, the leader, and Sher-\nbinin, his so-called papal secretary\nand general manager, have been instrumental in preventing members\nof the colony - at Brilliant from receiving medical attention. This has\nresulted in nt least one death.\nIt has been proved time and time\nagain tbat Veregin holds power of\nlife and death over bis subjects, the\nDoukhobors, and tbat this power is\nabused. The letter from Valdemar\nKruglak bas. caused considerable\nexcitement in Nelson, and the question is being asked wben will the\ngovernment Uke steps to prevent\nfurther outrages. Since the Blakemore report the Doukhobors have\nassumed an attitude of defiance, as\nthey feel that tbey are being protected by the government. Tbey are\nnot forced to conform'with the laws\nOf Canada.\nThe letter follows:.\n\"A report being made to the gold\ncommissioner of Nelson by Mrs. J.\nE. Kennedy and myself. At his request, Dr. Hartin and Provincial\nConstable King went to the Doukhobor community at Brilliant, B. C.\nto enquire about a certain sick man,\nby name Vaceilie Navakshownoff.\n\"On arrival they asked Mr. Sher-\nbinin and bis helpers to show them\nto the sick man. He positively denied to Dr, Hartin any knowledge\nof tbe man, declaring that t-iere was\nno one of the name of Navakasbow-\nnoff in the community (and I know\nMr. Sherbinin is a great friend of\nbis.) The otber Doukhobors also\nssid tbere wan no sick man there.\n\"Then Mr. King came to me and\nasked me to accompany them to the\ncommunity to And the sick man. I\nwent witb tbem across the river and\n-.very Doukhobor we asked said tbey\ndidn't know of any sick person. It\ncertainly seemed as if orders had\nbeen given to all Doukhobors to\ndeny to a doctor any knowledge of\na sick person, and not to reveal to\nhim the house where the sick man\nlay. Finally one of Navakashownoff's\nrelatives described the house to me,\nand upon arriving there we met a\n'Doukhobor woman wbo lived in the\nhouse, and she also denied all\nknowledge of a sick person and said\nhe was not there.\n\"Passing by the window I heard\nmoanings and I looked in and I saw\nthe siok man lying on a bed and an\nold man standing beside the sick\nman holding hia hand over the sick\n- man's mouth to suppress his moanings. I knew tben this was the stek\nman we were seeking.\n\"We went into the house and\nfound blm lying on a dirty bed in a\ndungeon of a room, and he wus\nbreathing very heavily. We ftskad\nhim how long be had been sick and\nbe answered very feebly:\n\" 'I have been   forbidden to tell.'\n\"Then the doctor examined him\nand said, 'It's too late; he has a\nweak heart, tf a doctor bad heen\ncalled ten days before he could have\nbeen saved.'\n\"Another case is of a young man\n35 years old, by name Sililcin, who\nhas a wife a nd two smsll children.\nA year ago he untight a cold and,\nasking for h doctor's assistance, was\nrefused. He hut- heen sick H whole\nyear, and now lies in a dying condition. A few diijx ago they brimght\nhim medicine ami wanted him to\ntake it, hut be was afraid and sent\nthe medicine by a friend to me to\nfind out what kind of medicine it\nwas. When I read it. it proved to\nbe a poisonous liniment.\n'\u2022Valdemar Krugluk,\n\"Brilliant, B. C.\"\n(Translated from the Russian hy\nMrs.  J. E.

If\ntbe rule were changed, say tbe jury,\nthe regulations of British Columbia\nwould tben be the same as in the\nmajority of otber provinces.\nThe first statutory annual meeting of the shareholder* of ihe (4ratid\nForks Canning company was held\nin the Davis hall last Saturday\nnight.

Mr. Shakov\nsays that the Doiikhohors are entirely\ndissatisfied with their leader and\nwould, in his opinion, throw off the\nyoke immediately and break up the\nclan so far as common property is con\ncerned. It is to be hoped that events\nwill justify his belief, but it is hardly\nlikely that Mr. Veregin will step\ndown without making a vigorous ef'\nfort to retain his authority. Ho has\none weapon which may be used with\npowerful effect. All tho property of\nthe community is vested in himself,\nand for a time at least he might make\nit unpleasant for those who tried to\noust him.\nIt is unlikely, of course, that the\ncourts would uphold his right to own\nership, especially as it is clearly understood that he is merely the trustee\nfor tho community, but it is tiie duty\nof the authorities to seo tliat he does\nnot intimidate his countrymen into\nsubserviency by the threat to dispossess them of the lands which have\nbeen made fruitful by their labor. -\nVancouvor Sun.\nThe annual provincial poultry\nebow opened in the opera house in\nthis cilyTu-sdiy and will continue\nuntil tomorrow night.

A\ngreat deal of disappointment is felt\nbecause there are no exhibits from\nsome of the coast cities. The fancy\nstock exhibited from interior points,\nhowever, is of an exceptionally fine\nquality, being tbe pick of birds exhibited at local shows tboroughout\nthe province. The show was opened\nin form on Thursday morning with\naddresses by Mayor Fripp and\nothers. While tbe exhibition bas\nbeen liberally patronized by local\npeople, the attendance outside\npoints has not come up tbe expectations.\nWednesday evening about sixty\npoultry fanciers and citizens attended a banquet given by tbe local\npoultry association in tbe Davis\nhall.

It Is not tbe\nchange tn tbe weather that causes the\nrheumatism, but lt does start the aches\nand pains. Rheumatism is a deep-\nseated dlsorde*- of the blood. You\ncannot possibly cure It with outward\napplication-; ot hot.fomentations as so\nmany people In their Ignorance of the\nreal cause at the trouble try to do.\nRheumatism can only be driven out\nof the system by driving out the poisonous acid ln the blood.

Nearly every\nother man one meets in the\nstreets nowadays is in the\nemploy of the province. There\nare inspectors of every im-\naj:iable commodity\u2014inspectors of inspectors, road bosses,\nro id employees, and an army\nof various kinds of warden <\nand \u25a0 itlier ollieials. The stage\nhas nearly been reached where\nthe man who works and pays\ntaxes has to support one\nidler.\nIt is not too early to commence to take a census of the\navailable mayoralty and aldermanic candidates. Grand\nForks will need good civic\nofficials for the coming year,\nbecause it will be our growing time. We want broad-\nminded men\u2014men who will\nendeavor o advance the interests of every section of the\ncity, and not men wedded fo\none of the many cliques that\nstill survive pioneer days, nor\nmen tied to the apron strings\nof any religious sect or secret\nsociety. We need honest men\nwho will give a good, clean\nadministration, without becoming so puritanical that\nto indulge in a smile on the\nLord's aay will land the offender in the city bastile.\nThere should be moderation\nand common sense to all\nthings. Let us ,have officials\nwith good judgment, and who\nare not afraid to exercise it.\nlhe watchword for 1914\nshould be \"Forward.\"\nOk course it was a foregone\nconclusion that the Conserva\ntive candidate should win\nin the Islands. He was\nnominated by the government\nmachine and elected by the\nroad bosses. It is gratifying\nto learn, however, that the\nLiberal candidate polled a\nlarge vote. Had ue been\nelected he might nave asked\nthe government many embarrassing questions from the opposition benches\u2014we were on\nthe point of writing it bench.\nFor instance, he might have\nwanted to know why it should\nbe necessary to float a new\nloan in London, what has become of the large surplus, and\nwhy a Victoria newspaperman\nshould have been given $45,-\n000 for which no accounting\nhas yet been made.\nWe are thoroughly disgusted with the hypocritical\nfellow who poses as a public\nspirited citizen merely as a\nshield for lining his own pockets.

We can\nnot become interested in his\nwork. He is merely a hired\nman. When he starts out on\nhis career he is content with a\nbull pup for a companion.\nThen by natural stages he\ngravitates to something worse.\nThis may be the reason why\nhe does not enthuse us.\nThe citizens generally express regret that more people from outnidt.\npuints should not bave availed\nthemselves of the opportunity to\nvisit Grand Forks during the pro\nvincial poultry show In view of\nthe fact that tbe association has car\nri'-d nu advertisement announcing\nthe event in one of the government's\npaid organs' for nearly a year, they\nimturaily looked for belter results\nHad not Tbe Sun taken compassion\non the government and given the\nshow a little gratuitous publicity\nInst week, it niiuht have passed off\nunnoticed altogether\nSome oi' the queitions 8sl_fd by the\nT-ittes in regard _\u25a0\u2022 '! e Kn.incial poii-\ntio'i uf tlio province have been answered by the premier, but not alt\nWe have nut lieen told whether any\nof the lirge surplus that su suddenly\nhas melted awav \u00bba* applied to assist\nA Christmas Gift\nWorth While\n[\"\u2022HERE'S nothing you eould\nthink of that will express better the spirit of helpfulness\nand good will than the gift of a\ngood wateh.
