FOREST FIRES.  if  .Mike Carlin Suggests Means of  Handling Them.  Messrs I-\". W. Jones, Carlin and Mc-  Cormick a'reat the coast in connection  with lumber legislation. ^  Of the proposal to inaugurate a pro-  \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdvincial forest lire brigade, Mr. Carlin  is an ardent advocate. \"1 think,\"said  he, speaking of ihe subject last evening, \"it is a teivice that is very much  needed. 1 believe the federal and  local governments L could co-operate  with advantage in perfecting such a  system.'\"  Al the present time, he explained,  there is a piotective service, under federal supervision, on the Dominion  lauds along the Canadian Pacific  Railway belt, which extends for twenty  mile- on either side of the track  throughout the province. This terri-  toiy i= divided iiuo districts about  twenty miles in length, each of which  is patrolled hy a ' fore.-t ranger. The  only troiihle is, said Mr. Carlin, that  the territory which the.-e rangers have  to cover ia too large. The force is too  small for the work they  have   to   do.  The expense of thi' service i- borne  jointly hy the government and the  lumbermen. The rangers' salary is  contributed partly by the government  and partly by the niillmen and the  uwners of timlx-r limit\", assessments  being made and collected by the  govei nment at so much per mile of  the holdings.  The niillmen, Mr. Carlin says, are  more than satisfied with this arrangement, the only complaint being that  thc service is insufficient.  \"We would like very much,\" laid he  \"to see the provincial government  take the matter up. I think the Dominion and the province   could   work  Ob   ';>;l  fl ,_        . '1(,  C. B. HUME & CO.'S STORE, 1905.  very well together in,this connection.  For one thing J thi nit the penalties  for setting or causing lircs should be  heavier than they are.\"  McBRIDE TAXATION.  HasSerious Effects on Settlement on B. C. Lands.  A leading settlei tells a coast paper  thc lcsult of allothese'imposts is  that  the farmer-who has 160 acres>of land,  of which he is,possibly using 30 or -40  acres, is in some cases  taxed  as  high  i  as $-100 a yea i*,' a levy so enormous  thatdf the government persists in its  designs theie will necessarily be a  heavy exodus fiom the, valley > and  abandoned farms with then accompanying desolation \"will mark the,  place whcic once \"the country smiled.''  .'\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdThere are not twelve settlers in the  valley,\" says Mr. II. Webb, one of the  oldest of the pioneer*,''-who can afford  to pay the taxes. Jt means that'after  spending yeais in making homes we  must simply get out and leave our  holdings.\"  -According to Mr. W. U.

The , tiine^was' when he  practically owned his'enginc, knew  it as intimately 'as he,, knew himself, took a pride in handling it to1  the best, advantage.

The  CITY AFFAIRS,  voting   on   the, bylaw ,to  FOOL LEGISLATORS.  When the legislatuie. which is  being conducted at great expense  to the taxpayers, has to be made  the plaything of such .nonsense as  Ha vv thorn th waited a mend ment that  judges should wear red wigs, it is  time legislators of -such calibre  \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdwere relegated 10 that obscurity  from 'which they should .never  emerge. - It .is to he hoped when  another election comes  round 'the  borrow $15,000 for improvement of  the water and electric .light, plant  on Wednesday .revealed tbe fact  that, there is a dissatisfaction  existing over',the' \"administration of' civic affairs. While  some of. the. giounds* taken by  'those, opposing ' the bylaw- offer  legitimate field for criticism other  features of the opposition' were due  to misrepresentation which .should  not exist.' it becomes our dutv to'  review the reasons given by rale-  payers for the \"manner in which  they cast their-votes.   - \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd      *-   ,  The ' electric   plant  ha? cost the  city a great deal   within , the   p.ist  eighteen months   owing .to break-  *   * , 1 , . *-*  downs, and it , is contended these\"  could have bt-en .* a voided - with  proper precautions. No doubt they  .could, and that feeling has given  rise to the demand that before any  moie money is spent in improving  the iilannt -hall he placed in the  lia ml- of an expert electrician.  Those who lake tliis suunl, 'however, overlook the fact thnt the  plant has been greatly over-loaded,  and it was a question of the council  refusing'to grant any more .lights,  and thus lose' revenue, or-cut off  the street lights and those supplied  free to the school and other city  buildings,andsupply only the lights  .There'are certainly several stree.ts  which should have sidewalks, but  there appears to lia've been serious  misrepresentations regarding the  proposed' lioulevarding, as . the  council 'never proposed to undertake this expense. The 'proposal,  was this work should' be done by  the owners of the\/lots fronting the  respective - streets', the council  merely making a' regulation as to  the width and distance, from the  sidewalk, a.nd moving the side.walks  and electric light poles' out\"to enable this to be done. Everj'ratepayer who has the ibest interest of  the city at heart will, we are ' sure,  agree' the city should do all it  reasonably can to' encourage the  beautifying of the streets by the  citizens themselves providing,,the  citv treasury is not called on to(  bear the expense of \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd improving  priyate'property.  The city is   now   in   a   serious  position.  \" In   view  of the vote, if  the plant breaks down   again, the  council, will   no't   be 'justified \"in  going tb the expense of repairing it  without submitting  the   matter to  the ratepaj-'ers, and .the'1 large  sum  spent by tbe  city\" in   this   plant  must' remain unremiinerative'while  the interest'on the debentures continues, until  the-mandate  of'the  ratepayers is  obtained.     Then as  matters now stand the city is 'pro-  hibitedfrom increasing theefliciency  of its lighting plant to  cope  with'  the growth of  the  town,  and   the  streets 'may   have   to   remain   in  darkness. *c  A  policy\", of-this kind-  cannot fail  to  be  most injurious  both to^the citty'-itself  and   to ,its  credit   in\"-placing  debentures -for  future needs. -While thepolicy of the  council may have been open to criti'-  cism we feel that the ratepayers in  voting down the bylaw have given  themselvesca slap'in the face, and  tbe stand-tliey have taken is creditable neither to themselves   nor  to  tbe city as a whole.     Right now is  ihe time to thresh the matter ,ou[.  and we i-hould like to see the mayor  and: council    place    the    position'  entirely   in  the hands of the'rate-,,  payers., holding a' public : meeting  to   fully discuss' municipal affairs.  This     is      the   -only- y. wa'y   -wc  can'   see 'at    present of -clearing  a       sultry  'atmosphere'   and  .arriving\"1 at , a     clear-cut     decision  as to whether it is the wish   of the  ratepayers the city should advance  or retrograde.'

Don't mistake this for western   slang,  for many of your  readers know  it to  be a cold, damp fact,  -    It   has  been  stated  ''if you give a  calf rope enough it  will   hang itself,\"  and since you have called us   up,   we  are reminded how much men ^ are like  animals.     For   some time have been  attached to our city   ropes   a   few cf  our thinking aldermen, resulting  in a  demonstration at'last council meeting  of their ability to   perform   not   only  the quadruped's act   referred   to   but  the Judas   accomplishment   as  well,  and in the absence of the mayor and  \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdtwo aldermen abrogated to themselves  the power to repudiate the only member of their body elected by the whole  | Our correspondent is mistaken   regarding the boiilevarding  pioposition.  ipcoplo; then   followod   this   up by a | Tlio city have had under consideration  proposition aiming'to use' citv funds  to enable them to build boulevards  '(for the attornment and enchancement  of their own'; individual properties,  again forgetting' the many heavily  taxed rate-payers'who would be irrate-  \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdful for an ordinary, graded road and  common side-walk' to the vicinity of  .their homes. ._      ._ , b,'  - As to the depot, location, the merits  of this matter lia've not been \"duly and  well considered,, nor would ,there have  been, any 'disseiitioii' among tbe  ordinary business citizens had it not  been that \"look\"out for the lion\" cry  for yen know the* most* fearful man-  cateis ever contemplated are .really  those which \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd are never seen, and  virtually not in existence. in this  case there was 'just a porcupine, and  of course' everyone .knows that _this  animal does Ids'5 business quietly'and  brushes up his quills only when disturbed-at close range.  Withv a \".very few exceptions, th\"  petition.' for having the 'depot south  of. the track <-was -signed \" by every  leprctentative in town.' It was even  endoised by1 the quiet'workois, .when  tbey anticipated that'it would\" meiely  \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdbe presented,to the C..

'  Now   J    have   no   personal quarrel  with   these   gentlemen. ,   They   are  merely taking advantage of opportunities, and opportunities which   always  obtain  among apethetic    tax-payers.  Thc result of the vote  this  week  on  the money bylaw, however,  is  an  indication that   the   heretofore  drowsy  citizens are at'lnst becoming conscious  of the situation, and though they will  at any time vote through a bylaw  for  the borrowing of a legitimate amount  of necessary   funds   for city lighting,  they will not tolerate expending fund*  for boulevards, and unnecessary streets  and side-walks merely for  the gratification and benefit of a  few,   and   the  real position answered yesterday was,  \"Are we going to vote  ourselves  into  debt   $15000,   bearing . interest,     for  electrical purposes when, by the action  of\" the   council,   we   appear  to have  sufficient tax monies in our   treasury  to supply luxuries for at least a few ? \"  As soon as the  council   cease summersaulting,   and  stop  making  silly  motions so   as   to permit us to think  they are not school boys, but may  be  safe to entrust with   the  expenditure  of monies, we shall vote the  requisite.

'Rowland Brittain, patent attorney,  Vancouver, reports : David Campbell,, electrician, Vancouver, received  last week a Canadian -patent on an  improved lamp bulb the construction  of which is designed to afford a better  reflection surface for the light from  the filament. This result he attains  by depressing one 6ide of the bulb  within tbe other part, and by carrying his filament round the inwaidly  projecting portion. The .inwardly  depressed portion can thus be silvered,  to afford a reflecting surface and as  the silvered portion will be exposed to  tbe outside air it will not be excessively'heated by the filament.      >  John Park and M.'Snee, Vancouver,  haye just received .their Canadian  patent on an improved wheel flange  wherein a'series of ball bearings are  inserted to lesben'the friction of.the  wheel in passing round curves.  9  \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd  \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd  \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd  \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd  \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd  \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd  \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd  \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd '  \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd  \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd^\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd^\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd<> \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd>\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd>\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd<\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd.\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd.\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd  \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd  \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd  \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd .  \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd  \ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd  E5T.   1877  INC.   18 98  DYES  FOR  PERFECT  HOME  DYEING.  wiiiiiiiitiaiiiiii  :.:.T'ft\/\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdr,;s:-i.'^  . -  EASY TO USE, BRIGHTEST AND BEST. ,  ASK  FOR   THE   \"DIAMOND.\"    .
