B. C. THURSDAY, OCTOBER 29, 1903\nMeBBIDE IS\nOpinion of  Parliamentary\nAuthorities\nColonist \"Prefers to Reserve\nall Comment\"\n[Special to The Dally News.]\nVictoria, Oct. 28.\u2014The Colonist, the\norgan of the government, this morning\ndismissed all speculation as to the reason for the refusal of McBrlde to take\nHouston into the cabinet hy the following statement:\n\"We are desirous of giving the facts\nof which we are in possession. Houston\nwas recommended to lieutenant-governor sir Henri Joly for a portfolio by\npremier McBrlde. Sir Henri refused to\naccept Houston as an adviser, and has\nbased his refusal upon an incident\nwhich transpired In the legislature. We\nforbear to comment upon the situation\ntoday because it raises a question of extreme gravity, but we may say this,\nthat an adviser of the crown Is not responsible for the action taken by the\ncrown against his advice ln a matter\naffecting the personality of his cabinet.\n\"A prerogative which the crown undoubtedly possesses has been exercised,\nbut the grounds upon which It has been\nexercised are such as to raise a constitutional question upon which we prefer to\nreserve comment.\"\nPremier McBrlde and hon. Robert\nGreen, both Interviewed this morning,\ndisclaimed responsibility for the Colonist\nleader re Houston. They say the Colonist ls not the organ of the government,\nnor can they be held responsible for Its\nstatements, neither will they deny or\naffirm the report of the government's\naction.\nThe question now Is one of ministerial responsibility for the governor's acts.\nThe best parliamentary authorities here\nsay there can be no doubt on the point\nthat the filling of a cabinet portfolio Is\nas much a matter of policy as any other\ngovernmental act. If McBrlde falls to\nbecome responsible for the governor's\nacts he must make way for some one\nwho will. On the other hand, by remaining In power, he accepts said responsibility and his statement to Houston is\ntherefore monstrous. Houston's and\nthe Colonist's statements, as long as\nthey are unrepudlated by the government, constitute an insult to tho governor. At the same time premier McBride cannot quarrel with the governor's procedure ln refusing to sanction\nHouston's appointment on the grounds\nalleged, as McBrlde, MePhllllps, Tatlow\nand Green all protested against Houston's conduct on the floor of the bouse\nat the time it occurred.\nother persons are prohibited from acting\nussdes' lany land all circumstances but\nwith barristers and solicitors It is mado\noptional.\nBccent advices from East Kootenay say\nthat tho feeling down there is growing\nstronger overy day that a deliberate attempt Is being made to burke a recount and\none way of disproving this story ls for the\nreturning ofllcor in question to make his\nappearance hero at the very earliest opportunity.\nIf the idea gets, abroad that Mr. Ross is\nfn any way a party to a scheme to prevent a lawful rcount being made as\npromptly as It can be held, then ln the\nevent of a second election being held the\nvoters ln East Kootenay should give tho\nFernie member elect an opportunity to go\non a prolonged shooting trip on his own\naccount, and tf necessary take his legal\npartner with him.\nMr. Taylor states that tho information ln\nhis possession makes it reasonably clear\nthat an attempt is being mnde to prevent\nthe recount from coming off and If this\nproves correct all who are concerned ln\nthe matter should promptly show up without fear, favor or affection.\nTAGOMA'S NARROW ESCAPE\nDYNAMITE   PLACED   UNDER   THE\nRAILWAY STATION.\nWAS FORTUNATELY   DISCOVERED\nIN TIME.\nSeattle, Washington, Oct. 28,\u2014Pour\nsticks of dynamite, with (uses attached,\nall ready for lighting, have been found\nunderneath the Tacoma-Seattle inter-\nurban railway station.\nThe And caused great excitement,\nowing to recent explosions at night at\nnearby points, which have so far done\nno damage.\nThe police think the station was to\nhave been blown up tonight.\nTHE PUBLIC HEALTH.\nWants Criminals Experimented on in the\nInterests of Science.\nWashington, Oct. 28.\u2014The American\nPublic Health Association today further\nconsidered the subject of Infection of\nhuman beings with animal tuberculosis,\nand listened to several papers on the collection and distribution of garbage.\nIn discussion of the former subject,\nDr. Mazyck P. Ravenel, of Philadelphia,\nregretted the disinclination of the federal and state authorities to permit\ncriminals condemned to death to be in-\nnoculated with the tubercule germs ln\nthe interests of science.\nHe emphatically controverted the\ncommon theory that the sputum is the\nunderlying cause of tubercular infection\nanr said that there is not a bit of evidence that it ever caused a single case of\ntuberculosis in mankind.\nCABINET RECONSTRUCTION.\nPremier McBrlde May Decide to Work\nShorthauded for a Time.\n[Special to Tho Daily News.]\nVictoria, Oct. 28.\u2014It fs rumored in\npolitical circles tbat premier McBrlde\nhas about decided not to attempt to elect\ntwo new ministers. Upon the plea of\neconomy he proposes, it is said, to merge\nthe department of mines with that of\nthe provincial secretary. His one aim\nnow Is to find a safe seat for MePhllllps,\nwithout whose assistance he appears unwilling to meet the legislature. The negotiations for the opening of Lillooet have\nnot been finally dropped yet Attorney-\ngeneral McPhiliips believes he can\ncarry that seat If given-a chance, and It\nnow depends largely upon the attitude\nof Alexander McDonald (the member-\nelect), whether or not the rejected of\nVictorfa will be allowed this opportunity. All road work having been discontinued throughout the province, McDonald cannot for the present return to his\nformer occupation of road superintendent, and just how he Is to be recompensed appears to be the stumbling\nblock. In the event of Lillooet being\nre-opened it is stated that Denis Murphy,\nof Ashcroft, will oppose McPhiliips, and\nas he Is well known throughout that\ndistrict, the odds are that McPhiliips\nwould encounter another disastrous\n, defeat.\nHOW is THIS?\n| It is Stated That Returning Officer Alexander is Keeping Out o ftlio Way.\n_ S.

C.\nPREMIER McBRIDE.\nRecent occurrences at Victoria have\nfully justified the estimate placed upon\npremier McBrlde hy the liberals in the\nlate campaign.\nIt was then alleged that he was entirely unfitted for the responsible position of leader of a government The\nweakness that characterized his administration ot the department of mines\nwhen he held office in the Dunsmulr\ngovernment, and his utter lack of generalship during his inglorious career as\nleader of the opposition, were among the\nchief reasons advanced by liberals for\nadvising the electorate to place no confidence ln the new premier. Hts conduct of the campaign stamped McBrlde\nas a poor excuse for a leader. The least\nthat could bave been expected of him\nwas that he should have addressed public meetings ln all the chief centres of\nthe province. As everyone knows, premier McBrlde carefully avoided going on\ntbe platform In any of the coast cities\nor the chief Kootenay towns.\nSince tbe result ot the elections was\nknown he has proved more clearly than\never that a grave error was made by the\nconservative party In accepting him as\ntheir leader.\nIf ever a party needed a bold, resourceful leader, the conservatives of\nBritish Columbia did after October 3rd,\nAnd yet three weeks have elapsed and\npremier McBrlde has not made a single\nmove In the direction of strengthening\nthe party's position. On the other hand\nby his double dealing with John\nHouston, member-elect for Nelson, he\nhas lost what little opportunity he had\nof controlling the legislature. His government camiot hold on much longer,*\nand Its downfall will have been hastened\nby the man to whom the conservative\nparty had a right to look to strain every\nnerve to save the situation.\nIf premier McBride had Insisted upon\nthe Immediate retirement from office of\nhis two defeated ministers, Goodeve and\nMePhllllps, at once appointed their successors and hurried on the bye-elections,\nthe probabilities are that he would have\nsucceeded in electing both of them and\nhe would have proved to tho country\nthat he had some backbone and was\ndetermined to make an honest effort to\ncarry out his policy.\nGoodeve and MePhllllps still retain\ntheir portfolios. The premier now does\nnot seem to know which way to turn to\nfill up his cabinet. He has no confidence In his own capacity to choose colleagues and apparently he is unwilling to\nbe guided by his party friends.\nIt is well known now that premier\nMcBrlde, of his own volition, led Mr.\nHouston to believe tbat he was to be\ntaken Into the cabinet. He certainly\nrecommended him to the lieutenant-governor for cabinet position. Premier McBrlde's course In this connection was\none of gross deceit. He deliberately perpetrated a fraud either upon Mr. Houston or sir Henri Joly.\nHe stands convicted of either having\nplayed the part of a Judas towards Mr.\nHouston or of having wilfully humbugged the lieutenant-governor ln order\nto save himself the momentary unpleasantness of telling Mr. Houston he had\nno Intention of taking him Into his cabinet.\nMcBrlde's tenure of ofllce will be\nshort, and It Is safe to predict that his\nparty will take good care that he never\nagain has opportunity to make them the\nlaughing stock of Canada.\nEDITORIAL NOTES.\nMr. Justice Irving having granted the\norder asked for by provincial secretary\nGoodeve In the Pernio recount matter,\nit is to be sincerely hoped that no further delay will be caused at Victoria,\nand that the recount will promptly take\nplace hero before the county Judge ns\nprovided by tho statute. No ultimate\nadvantage can be gained by urging technical objections. If Mr. Ross has been\nhonestly nnd properly elected then let\nthe fact be established as speedily as\npossiblo.

Mexico and Cuba\nbeing present.\nSurgeon general Sternberg, delivered an\naddress ln which he dwelt ut length un the\nefforts which have been made to stamp\nout disease and to guard against epidemics.\nHe digressed from his paper, to remark\nthat since It was written tho present attack\nof yellow fever In Texas had developed,\nund declared he would not have believed\nIt possible, with the association's present\nknowledge that yellow fever would have\nbeen allowed to obtain u foothold thero.\n\"Somebody is responsible,' ho said. \"Although cholera, yellow fever aud bubonic\nplague,\" he continued,\" are no longer\nfeared by sanitation, we have not yet conquered our endemic illtii disease, typhoid\nfever and tuberculosis, still claims nearly\n160,000 victims annually within the limits\nof the United States.'\nThe report of the committee on animal\ndiseases und food was presented by Dr.\nSalmon of tho bureau of unlmuL industry,\nWashington.\nClinical evidence, statistics and experiments, it declared, all favor the conclusion\nthat bovine tuberculosis was a factor ln\nhuman tuberculosis. Tho milk supply he\nurged, should be carefully attended to.\nIn the discussion which followed Dr.\nJuan Qultteruu of Havana, the yellow fever\nexpert, said that although In Cuba the invariable custom is to boll milk, he believed\nthe Infantile tuberculosis lu Cuban children is us frequent ns anywhere else. The\n(commltteo on car sanitation reported\nJthrotigh Dr. J. N. Hurly. Thoro Is an\nunanimity of opinion, he said, regarding\nthe transportation by common carriers of\npersons sick with smallpox, diphtheria,\nscarlet fever, leprosy, yellow fever and\ntyphoid. Leprosy, he declared ls not as\n, easily transmitted ns tuberculosis, and referring to the latter fn its destructiveness\nof human life he said It amounted to iiotfi-\n1 Ing at all, yot a riot followed the introduc-\ni tlon of a leper into a railway cur.\n\"Tho houso on wheels,\" ho declared, \"Is\nJ a potent factor In tho transmission of\n| consumption.\"\nCUNARD'S BID FOR TRADE.\nNow York,  Oot.  28.\u2014The now  Medlter-\nIranean servico of tho Cunard line, which\nwas Inaugurated tuduy with tho departure\nof the steamship Aurunlu for Gibraltar,\nGenoa, Naples nnd othor Mediterranean\nports, is likely to preclpltnto the rnte war\nwhich has been predicted for some time.\nWhen the Cunard company withdrew from\n' tho Morgan combination It was freely pre\ndicted that It was only tho preparatory\nstep toward making a strong bid for a\nlarger sharo of the south of Europe immigrant trafllc, hitherto practically controlled by the Gorman and Italian lines.\nThese predictions are now verified. \u2022 Marl-\ntime interests nro now eagerly awaiting\nfurther developments.\nOWES HIS LIFE TO A NEIGHBOR'S\nKINDNESS.\nMr. D. P. Daugherty, well known\nthroughout Mercer and Sumner counties,\nW. Va,, most likely owes hit life to the\nkindness of a neighbor.

In view of the\nfact that the mass of the miners would\nnot return to work the day following tho\ncelebration, nnd that, moreover, there\nwould be another holiday on election day\nnext week, the mine owners have decided\non a geenral suspension of operations, beginning with the closing of the mines tonight and continuing until the day after\nelection. This idleness will cut off about\n300,000 tons and perhaps more, and will reduce the big surplus stock. The operators\nsay this reduction Is a commercial necessity as the supply of coal ls still largely\nlu excess of the demand.\nBAN A NAIL THROUGH HIS BAND.\nWhile opening a box, J ,C.
