MAY   25, I9\u00bb\nNO. 29\nDAY HONORED\nKaslo's Celebration Draws\nRecord Crowd\nDEFENDING FORCE WINS\nSHAM FIGHT RESULTS IN VICTORY\nFOR HOME COMPANY\u2014POSITION CH08EN AND FORTIFIED\nDECLARED BY UMPIRES TO BE\nIMPREGNABLE.\nKaslo was yesterday, on the occasion of the 19fcu annual celebration of\nEmpire day, quite the busiest and most\nlively city on Kootenay lake's 500\nmiles of shore. The majority of the\nvisitors were from Nelson but others\ncame In large numbers from Troiut\nLake, Gerrard, the Lardeau, from tie\nranches along tbe West Arm and east\nas far as Kootenay Landing.\nThe weather was ideal and Kaslo\nfor tiie day seemed to be like Rome\nof old inasmuch as that all roads led\nto it.\nThe first boat to arrive from Nelson\n\u25a0was the Kuskanook, which got In\nabout five muintes ahead of the Kaslo.\nThe combined number of passengers\non these two Bteamers approached\n500., The Kaslo left Nelson at 7 a.m.\nand stopped at Marions landings t|n\ntake on passengers, the city band\nwhich was on board playing Btirring\nand Inspiring airs at each point. At\nRiondel she was welcomed by fully\n100 people, who were themselves making preparations for an Empire day\ncelebration, and by whistles and hoots\nfrom the engine in the mill. Tlie\nEagle hand delighted the passengers\non the Kuskanook with an excellent\n\u25a0band concert of selections from comic\noperas, etc.\nThe visitors on both boats were met\nat Kaslo by members of the reception\ncommittee and honored by the explosion of shots along the beach and hy\nmusic from the local hand.\nThe streets presented a most animated appearance, being gay with\nfines and other decorations and with\nthe bright colored dresses of lady holiday makers.\nA special word of praise must be\ngiven to those In charge of the various sports and other celebrations.\nProm the launch races In the morning\nto the grand ball In the evening the\nceleoratlon (went forward without a\nhitch and almost without a break. An\ninstance of the care shown tor 'the\nwants of the visitors was a special\ndrinking fountain , decorated with a\nflag and well supplied with cups set\nup on the main street. Owing to the\nbeautiful weather and the hot sun this\nproved a great boon to a large number of people. The hotel and restaurant keepers made adequate preparation for coping with the large trade and\nare to be commended for not only putt*\nIng up excellent meals but also for not\nplaying the hold-up game as regards\nprices, which has become too general\non occasions of celebrations ln many\nther cities.\nThe sham fight between the headquarters half battalion of the 102nd\nregiment and D Co. attracted a large\namount of attention. The latter force\ntook up a position on a bluff slightly\nto the south of the city and were un*\navafllngly attacked by the Nelson contingent for about an hour. The um>\nptfes, major Eyre, retired, and Capt\nC, G. Broadwood, R.V., In giving their\ndecision stated that the Kaslo men had\ntaken up a position which, except to\nan overwhelming force ol men, was\nImpregnable. The position, apart from\nIts natural advantages, was considerably strengthened by barb wire entrenchments, a leBson borrowed in the\nSouth African war, and mines. In\ncase of a retreat becoming a necessity\nthe defenders had made arrangements\nby which, after retiring over a bridge\nthey could Mow it up and stop all pur-\n' suit. Tne umpires speak In the high\nest terms of the behavior of both panties, especially mentioning the excel-\nlent manner in which the defenders\nreserved their fire at the commencement of the fight. The Maxim gun\ndetachment made a great effort to get\ninto action hut having to pass over\nan extremely exposed road, in real action would have been annihilated. The\nscouts of the attacking party got In\nsome clever work and took several\nprisoners among whom was a gallant\nKaslo lieutenant. The early part of\nthe attack was directed toward turning the left flatrlt: of the defenders,\nwho, however, maintained such a\nsteady and deadly fire that the Nelson\nmen changed their tactics to a frontal\nattack, but again lost a large number\nof 'men either through casualties or\nthrough being captured by the defend*\ners. The list of dead and wounded\nwas not given but it Is understood to\n- have been heavy.\nThe great long distance launch race\ntrom Nelson to the scene of the celebration which bad been looked flo(r-\nward to with Interest for some weeks\n% both launch owners and the public,\nwas won by A. N. Wolverton's new\nflyer Priscllla. R. Andrew's Canuck\ntook second honors, while third place\nwent to A. D. Wheeler's Krao II. The\ntimes of the arrival of the finishing\nlaunches were as follows: A. N. Wol-\nTerton's Prlsollta, U: 62:25; R, Andrews\nSK\u2122% i1illJ?Ii8i>'B   Whir's\nKrao H. 11:63:26; B. C. Travis' Lady\nLaurier, 11:53:38; W. E. Wasson's\nFiona, 11:54:16 and D. H. McGHlivray'a\nDunlop, 12:15:08. Several other\nlaunches came In at Intervals later but\nno longer having a chance in the race\nwere not timed. The actual times\ntaken by the various craft will be published later, as they had not last night\nbeen figured out. The fastest journey\nwsb of course made by A. N. Wolverton's Priscllla, whose time was considerably under three hours. This the latest launch on tbe lake, Is local built\nand is easily, the fastest in the Kootenays. Her owner had reason to feel\nproud last night, as his graceful boat\nin addition to winning the big race\ncarried off the second prize In the\nevent for launches of 10 horse power\nand over. With regard to the long\ndistance race It should be mentioned.\nthat R. A\/ndrew (had extremely had\nhick in not getting first place. Ha\nheld a useful lead near the winning\npost but at the psychological moment\nsomething went wrong with the engine and he had a hard race to get\nsecond place. Another competitor in\nthe same race was seen as he approached the winning post, to be excitedly pouring gasoline into the tank\nof his boat which had at an awkward\ntime run dry.\nIn the race for fast launches G. H.\nHunter's Three Sisters was the winner, followed by A. N. Wolverton's\nflyer and George Hale's Al-Kl. The\ntimes in this event, a distance of\nslightly over five miles, were as follows: H. E. Qulckey, 46:49; G. W.\nHale, 41:59; G. H. Hunter, 40:22; R.\nAndrew, 38:50; B. C. Travis, 38:53; A.\nN. Wolverton, 18:30.\nThe race for boats of under 1ft h.p.\nresulted In a win for W. E. Wasson's\nFiona II, with Allan Lean's Ennesis\ntaking second honors. The winner of\nthe third prize was not stated owing\nto some difficulty in figuring out the\nhandicap. The time In this ewent\nwere: A. Lean. 54:10; A. S. Luttv,\n52:27; P. H. Walsh, 61:16; T>. McGlUl-\nvray, 49:34. C. Christie. 46:20; A. T.\nGarland. 48:13: W. E. Wasson, 43:48.\nOwing to lack of sufficient time only\none mixed four boat race was rowed.\nThis was between the following Nelson\ncrews: W. F. Mawdsley. stroke; Miss\n.7. Broadwood, third; Miss D. Broadwood, second; C. H. .Toy, bow, and\nFrank Nott, stroke; Miss Goodwin,\nthird; Mis Cavanaugh, second, nnd\nAlex. Chain, bow. The race resulted In\nan easy victory for the latter boat,\nwhose crew must had been through a\nlonger course of training than the losers.\nDuring the progress of the launch\nand iboat races the Maxim gun detachment gave nn exhibition of sinking an\nattacking force on the lake. Two bar*\nrels, one filled with detonating powder, were moored 800 yards out. The\nfirst three volleys at the powder barrel, authough splashing all round the\ntarget were Ineffective. A fourth\nshower of bullets, however, resulted in\nan explosion which shook title roofs\nand sides of the houses and the nolste\nof which reverberated in the mountains. The Maxim gun men then with\na few more showers of well directed\nshots riddled the second target. Considering the long range and the rare\noccasions upon which the detachment\nare able to practice, the results achieved were remarkable.\nEarly in the afternoon the IfOSmd\nnegiment headquarters h|alf ijattallon\nnnd D. Co. headed by the regimental\nband and the Eagles' band, naraded\nto the recreation grounds, where a\nbaseball match between the headquarters half battalion and Kaslo took\nplace. The game up to the fifth innings was a fntrly even one hut the\nhome team from that point ran right\nahead nnd finally won by a score of\n23 to 13. The Nelson team was as\nfollows: E. Mntlhew, S. S. Newitt, D.\nHarflh. H. Rlshop, C. Swannell, G.\nGore, F. Miller, C. Cory and A. A. Perrler.\nThe baseball game was followed by\nan exhibition of the work of the hello-\ngraphic signalling detachment of the\n102nd.\nAt 5:30 commenced the pony races\nwhich attracted a big crowd. There\nwere unfortunately only three entries.\nThe first heat was won by .T. W. Powers' Pinto and W. E. Stevenson's Sorrel second. Mr. Powers' Black Beauty\nwas ahead during the first part of the\nrace \"hut ran out later owing to the\nIbreaklng of a stirrup. The black horse\nmade no mistake in the next heat and\nromped home a couple of lengths in\nfront of Pinto, while Sorrel ran out\nIn the second and did not start In the\nthird heat, which was won, after an\ninteresting race by Black Beauty.    *\nSixteen marksmen took part in the\nclay pigeon Bhooting competition,\nwhich was shot off in six events. A..\nBishop made the splendid score of 95\nout of a possible 100. This is a record which foas been seldom if ever\nequalled by an amateur In the Kootenays. Geo, P. Wells carried off second honors with a score-of 87. while\nC. H. Ink ran him close with 83. As\nwill be seen by the complete scores\nbelow Nelson devotees of clay pigeon\nshooting came out of the contest with\nflying dors.

Mr. Roosevelt very lucidly exposes what he considers some\nof the fallacies propounded by the\nAmerican socialist leaders.\nThe first of the series of articles entitled \"Where fe Cannot Work with\nSollcallsts\" follows:\nIt is always difficult to discuss a\nquestion when it proves Impossible to\ndefne the terms in which that question\nIs to be discussed. Therefore there Is\nnot much, to be gained by a discussion\nof Socialism versus Individualism In\nthe abstract. Neither absolute individualism nor absolute socialism would\nbe compatible with civilization at all;\nand among the arguments of the extremists of either side the only unanswerable ones are those which show\nthe absurdity of the position of the\nother. Not so much as the first step\ntowards real civilization can be taken\nuntil there arises some development\nof the right of private property; that\nis, until men pass out the stage of\nsavage socialism in which the violent\nand the thriftless forcibly constitute\nthemselves co-heirs with the Industrious and the intelligent in what the\nlabor of the latter produces. But it is\nequally true that every step toward\ncivilization is marked by a check on\nIndividualism. The ages that have\npassed have fettered the individualism\nwhich found expression in craft and\ngreed. There is growth in all such\nmatters. The Individualism of the\nTweed ring type would have seemed\nboth commonplace and meritorious to\nthe Merovlnginn Franks, where it was\nnot entirely beyond their comprehension; and so in future ages, if the\nworld progresses as we hope and believe It will progress , the standards\nof conduct will permit individuals to\nmake money out of pestilential tenements or by manipulation of stocks,\nor to refuse* to share with their employees the dreadful burdens laid noon\nthe latter by the inevitable physical\nrisks In a given business, will seem\nas amazing to our descendants as we\nnow find the stnndards of a society\nwhich regards Clovls and his Immediate successors as pre-eminently fit for\nleadership.\nWith those self-styled socialists to\nwhom \"socialism\" Is merely a vaguely\nconceived watchword, and who use It\nto express their discontent with existing wrongs and their purpose to correct them, there is not much need of\ndiscussion. Ro far as they make any\nproposals which are not foolish, and\nwhich tend toward betterment, we\ncan act with them. Tint the real logical, advanced socialists, who tench\ntheir faith as both a creed and a party\nplatform, may deceive to their ruin\ndecent nnd well meaning lint shortsighted men. and there Is need of plain\nsneaking In order accurately to show\nthe trend of their teaching.\nThe immorality and absurdity of\ntheir teaching of socialism as propounded by these advanced advocates\nare quite as great as those of the advocates, If such there be, of unlimited\nIndividualism. As an academic matter there is more need of refutation\nof the creed of absolute socialism than\nof the creed or absolute individuals.!!;\nfor ft happens that at the present time\nw greater number of visionaries, both\nsinister nnd merely dreamy, believe in\nthe farmer than In the latter. One difficulty in arguing with professed socialists of the extreme, or Indeed of\nthe opportunist, type, however, is tliae\nthese of mem who are sincere almost\nInvariablv suffer from great loosenes\nnf thought; for if they did not keep\ntheir faith nebulous, it would at once\nbecome abhorrent in the eyes of any\nunright and sensible man. The doctrinaire socialists, the extremists, the\nmen who represent the doctrine in its\nmost advanced form, are. and must necessarily lie, not only convinced opponents of private property, but also\nbitterly hostile to religion and morality; lii short they must lie opposed to\nall those principles through which\nand through which alone, even an imperfect civilization can be built up by\nslow advances through the ages.\nindeed those thoroughgoing socialists occupy In relation to alt morality,\nand especially to domestic morality, a\nposition so revolting\u2014ahd I choose my\nwords eai-efiilIy\u2014that it is difficult to\neven discuss It In a reputable paper.\nIn America the leaders even of this\ntype have usually been cautious about\nstating frankly that they proposed to\nsubstitute free love for married and\nfamily life as we have it, although\nmany of them do in a roundabout way\nuphold this position. In places on the\ncontinent of Europe, however, they are\nmore straightforward, their attitude\nbeing tnat of one of the extreme\nFrench socialst writers, M. Gabriel\nDevllle. who announces that the socila-\nists intend to do away with both prostitution land marriage, which he re-\ngams as equally wicked\u2014his method\nof doing away with prostitution being\nto make uncbiastlty universal. Prof.\nCarl Pearson, a leading English social-\n1st states their position exactly: \"Tbe\nsex relation of the future will not he\nregarded as a union for the ibirth of\nchildren, but as the closest form of\nfriendship between man and woman.\nIt will be accompanied by no child\nbearing or rearing, or by this in a\nmuch more limited number than at\npresent. With the sex relationship so\nlong as it does not result In children,\nwe hold the state in tlie future will in\nno wise interfere.\" He then goes on\nto potn tout that in order to save the\nwoman from \"economic dependence\"\nupon tbe father of her children, the\nctiildren will be raised at the expense\nof the state; the usual plan being to\nhave huge buildings like foundling\nasylums.\nMr. Pearson is a scientific man. who\nIn liis own realm, is as worthy of serious heed as Mr. Flinders Petrle, whom\nI mention later, is in his realm; and\nthe above quotation states ln naked\nform just what logical scientific socialism would really come to. Aside from\nIts thoroughly repulsive character, It\nought not to be necessary to point out\nthat the condition of affairs aimed at\nwould in actual practice bring about\nthe destruction of the race within, at\nmost a couple of generations; and such\ndestruction Is heartily to be desired\nfor any race of such infamous character as to tolerate such a system.\nMoreover, the til bra-socialists of \"our\nown country have shown by their attitude toward one of their leaders, Mr.\nHerron, that, so far as law and public\nsentiment will permit, they are now\nready to try to realize the Ideals set\nforth by Messrs. Devllle and Pearson,\nAs for Mr. Herron, I commend to\nthose who desire to verify what I have\nsaid, the article In the Boston Congre*\nnationalist of June 15, 1901; and to\ni those, by the way, who have not time\nALL OVER THE WORLD\nf thousands   ol   housewives ^\nuse Sunlight Soap In preference to any other, because\nIt cleanses the clothes more\nthoroughly, and at half the\ncost   without   Injury to\nhands or fabric.

OnS\n* * * * It is not for the miners, bootmakers or shop assistants as such that\nwe socialists claim the profits of industry, but for the citizens.\" In our\ncountry \"Socialism Made Plain,\" a\nbook officially circulated by the Milwaukee division of the socialist party,\nthe statement is explicit: \"Under the\nlabor time check medium of exchange\nproposed by socialists, any laborer\ncould exchange the wealth he produced Iq any given number of hours for\ntne wealth produced by any other laborer In the same number of hours.\"\nIt iB unnecessary to point out that the\npleasing Idea of these writers could\nbe realized only If the state undertook\nthe duty of taskmaster, for otherwise\n1t Is not conceivable that anybody\nwhose work would be worth anything\nwould work at all under such conditions. Under this type of socialism,\ntherefore, or communism, the government would have to be the most drastic possible despotism; a despotism so\ndrastic that its realization would only\nbe an Ideal. Of course in practice\nsuch a system could not work at all;\nand Incidentally the mere attempt to\nrealize It would necessarily be accompanied by a corruption \"so gross that\nthat the blackest spot of corruption\nIn any existing form of city government would seem bright by comparison.\nIn other words, on fbie social and domestic side doctrinaire socialism would\nreplace the family and home life by\na glorified state * free lunch counter\nand state foundling asylum, deliberately enthroning self-indulgence as the\nIdeal, wlfh. on Its darker side, the absolute abandonment of morality as between' man and woman; while in place\nof what socialists are pleased to call\n\"wage slavery\" there would ihe created\na system which would necessitate\neither the prompt dying out of the\ncommunity through sheer starvation,\nor an iron despotism over all workers,\ncompared with which any slave system\nof the nast would seem beneficent, because less utterly hopeless.\n\"Advanced\" socialist * leaders are\nfond of declaring against patriotism,\nof announcing their movement as international, and of claiming to treat\nall men alike; hut on this poIhCas on\nmany others, their system would not\nstand for one mment the test of actual\nexperiment, if the leaders of the socialist party In America should today\nendeavor to force  their followers to\nadmit all negroes and Chinamen to a\nfreal equality, their party would\npromptly disband, and, rather than\nsubmit to such putting into effect of\ntheir avowed purpose, would, as a literal faqt, follow any capitalistic organization as an alternative.\nIt Is not accident that makes thoroughgoing and radical socialists adopt\nthe principle of free love as a necessary sequence to Insisting that no man\nsnail have the right to what he earns.\nWhen socialism of this really advanced\nand logical type is tried as it was In\nFrance in 1792, and again under the\ncommune in 1871, It Is inevitable that\nthe movement, ushered In with every\nkind of high-sounding phrase, should\nrnpidly spread so as to include, not\nmerely the forcible acquisition of the\nproperty of otners, hut every conceivable form of monetary corruption, immorality, llcentlousnes and murderous\nviolence. In theory, distinctions can\nbe drawn between' this kind of social-\nIsm and anarchy and nihilism, but In\npractice, as in 1871, the apostles of all\nthree act together; and if the doctrines\nof any of them could be applied universally, all the troubles of society\nwould Indeed cease. The poor and the\nhelpless, especially women and children would be the first to die out, and\nthe few survivors would go back to the\ncondition of skin-clad savages, so that\nthe whole painful and laborious work\nof social development would have to\nbegin over again. Of course .long before such an event really happened the\nsocialist regime would have been overturned and In the reaction men would\nwelcome any kind of one-man tyranny\nthat'was compatible with the existence\nof civilization.\nSo much for the academic side of unadulterated, or, as Its advocates style\nIt, \"advanced scientific\" socialism.

The chapters on Free Love, Homeles Children,\nand Two Socialist Leaders are especially worth reading by any one who\nis for the moment confused by the\nstatements of certain socialist leaders\nto the effect that advanced socialism\ndoes not contemplate an attack upon\nmarriage and the family.\nT.iese same socialist leaders with a\ncurious effrontery, at times deny that\nthe exponents of \"scientific socialism\"\nassume a position as regards industry\nwhich in condensed form may he stated as. that each man is to do what\nwork he can, or, In other words,\nchooses, and in return is to take out\nfrom the common fund whatever he\nneeds; or, what amounts to the same\nthing, that each man shall have equal\nremuneration with every other man,\nno matter what work is done.

LIMITED, TORONTO.\nWe need have but scant patience\nwith those who assert that modern\nconditions are all that they should be,\nor that they cannot be Improved. The\nwildest or most vicious of socialistic\nwriters could preach no more foolish\ndoctrine than that contained In such\nardent defenses of untrolled capitalism\nand Individualism as Mr. Flinders\nPetrie's \"Janus,\" a book which is absurd, but which, because of this very\nfact, is not mlsclievious, for it can\narouse no other emotion than the very\nearnest desire that this particular\narchaeological shoemaker should stick\nto his early-Egyptian last. There are\ndreadful woes in modern life, dreadful\nsuffering among some of those who toil,\nbrutal wrong-doing among some of\nthose who make colossal fortunes by\nexploiting the toilers. . It is the duty\nof every honest and upright man, of\nevery man who holds within his breast\nthe capacity for righteous indignation,\nto recognize these wrongs, and to\nstrive with all his might to bring about\na better condition of things. But he\nwill never bring about this better condition hy misstating facts and advocating remedies which are not merely\nfalse, but fatal.\nTake, for Instance, the doctrine of\nthe extreme socialists, that all wealth\nIs produced by manue] workers, that\nthe entire product of labor should be\nhanded over every day to the laborer,\nthat wealth Is criminal In Itself. Of\ncourse wealth Is no more criminal than\nlabor. Human society could not exist\nwithout both; and If all wealth were\nabolished this week, the majority of\nlaborers would starve next week. As\nfor the statement that all wealth Is\nproduced by manuel workers, in order\nto appreciate Its folly It Is merely\nnecessary for any man to look at what\nIs happening right around him, ln the\nnext street or the next village. Here\nln the city where The Outlook Ib edited,\non Broadway between Ninth and Tenth\nstreets, Is a huge dry gooda store. The\nbusiness was originally started, and\nthe block of which I am speaking was\nbuilt for the purpose, by an able New\nYork merchant It prospered. He and\nthose who invested under him made a\ngood deal of money. The employees\ndid well.   Then he died, and certain\nother people took possession of It and\n\u2022tried to run tho business. The manuel\nlabor was the same, tlie good-will was\nthe same, the physical conditions were\nthe same; hut. the guiding Intelligence\nat the top had changed. The business\nwas run at a loss. It would surely\nhave had to shut, and all the employees, clerks, laborers, everybody turned\nadrift, to infinite suffering, if it had\nnot again changed hands and another\nbusiness man of capacity taken charge.\nThe business wus the same as before,\nthe physical conditions were the same,\nthe good-will the same, the manuel\nlabor the same, but the guldfng Intelligence had changed, and now everything once more prospered, and prospered as had never been the cuso before. With such an instance before\nour very eyes, with such proof of what\nevery business proves, namely, the\nvast importance of the part played by\nthe guiding intelligence in business, as\nin war, in Invention, in art, in science,\nin every imaginable pursuit, It Is really\ndifficult to snow patience when asked\nto discuss a proposition 'as that all\nwealth Is produced solely by the work\nof manuel workers, and that the entire\nproduct should be liandtd over to them.\nOf course, if any such theory were\nreally acted upon, there would soon be\nno product to be handed over to manuel\nlaborers, and they would die of starvation. A great Industry could no more\nbe managed by a mass-meeting of\nmanuel laborers than a battle could be\nwon In such fashion, than a painters'\nunion could pain a Rembrandt, or a\ntypographical union could write one of\nShakespeare's plays.\nThe fact that this kind of socialism\nrepresents an effort to enthrone privilege in its crudest form. Much of\nwhat we are fighting against in modern\ncivilization is privilege. We fight\nagainst privilege when It take the\nform of a franchise to a street railway\ncompany to enjoy the use of the streets\nof a great city without paying an adequate return; when it takes the form\nof a great business combination which\ngrows rich by rebates which are denied\nto other shippers; when It takes the\nform of a stock-gambling operation\nwhich results In the watering of railway securities so that certain Inside\nmen get an enormous profit out of a\nswindle on the public. All these represent various forms of illegal, or, if not\nillegal, then anti-social, privilege. But\ntnere can be no greater abuse, no\ngreater example of corrupt and destructive privilege, than that advocated by\nthose who say. that each man should\nput Into a common store what he can\nand take out what he needs. This is\nmerely another way of saying that the\nthriftless and the vicious, who could\nor would put In but little, should be entitled to take out the earnings of the\nIntelligent, the fores ghted, and the industrious. Such a proposition is morally base. To choose to live by theft or\nby charity means in each case degradation, a rapid toweling of self-respect\nand self-reliance. The worst wrongs\nthat capitalism can commit upon labor\nwould sink into Insignificance when\ncompared with the hideous wrong done\nby those who would degrade labor by\nspping the foundation of self-respect\nand self-reliance. The Roman mob,\nliving on the bread given them by the\nState and clamoring for excitement\nand amusement to be purveyed by the\nState, represent for all time the very\nnadir to which a free and self-respecting population of workers can sink If\nthey grow habitually to rely upon\nothers, and especially upon the State,\neither to furnish them charity, or to\npermit them to plunder, as a means of\nlivelihood.\nIn short, It Is simply common sense\nto recognize that there Is the widest\nInequality of Bervice. and that therefore there must be an equally wide inequality of reward, If our society is to\nrest upon the basis of justice and wisdom. Service is the true test by which\na man's worth should be judged. We\nare against privilege in any form:\nprivilege to the capitalist who exploits\nthe poor man, and privilege to the\nshiftless or vicious poor man who\nwould rob his thrifty brother of what\nhe has earned. Certain exceedingly\nvaluable forms of service are rendered\nwholly without capital. On the other\nhand, there are exceedingly valuable\nforms of service which can be rendered\nonly by means of great accumulations\nof capital, and not to recognize this\nfact would be to deprive our whole\npeople of one of the great agencies for\ntheir betterment. The test of a man's\nworth to the community is tlie service\nhe renders to It, and we cannot afford\nto make this test by material considerations alone. One of tlie main vices of\nthe socialism which was propounded by\nProudhon, Lassalle, and Marx, and\nwhich is preached by their disciples\nand imitators, is that it is blind to all\nexcept the material side of life. It is\nnot only indifferent, but at bottom,\nhostile, to the intellectual, the religious, the domestic and moral life; it\nIs a form of communism with no moral\nfoundation, but essentially based on\nthe immediate annihilation of the\nfamily, and ultimately the annihilation\nof civilization.\nSOMETHING ABOUT COBALT.\nCopy of The Daily Nugget Contains\nMuch Interesting  Information.\nThe News is in receipt of a copy of\na recent Issue of The Cobalt Dally\nNugget, a bright, newsy sheet of eight\npages, each 15 by 22 inches, published\nin what is claimed to be the greatest\nmining camp in the world, as it has\nproduced last year one-third as much\nsilver as the whole of the United\nStates, a record which it forecasts will\nthis yen,- bQ greatly exceeded. Cobalt,\nas most people know, lies on the line\nof the Teralskamlng & Northen Ontario railway\u2014a railway which is owned and operated (at a profit, too) by\nthe Ontario government. That railway\nstarts at North Bay and runs northerly to Coohrane, a distance of 252\nmiles. Cobalt being 10.! miles from Its\nsouthern termlnue. Two trains are\nrun daily over its whole length In each\ndirection, the run from North Bay to\nCobalt, according to the time table\npublished in this issue of The Nugget,\nfaking about three hours and forty-\nfive minutes. Hailoybury, which seems\nto be the next most important town\nfn that district, lies about five miles\nnortherly of Cobalt. We notice that\nthe government, in operating it, gives\ncheap tickets (ten cents each, or\ntwelve ride tickets for one dollar) between Halleybury and other neighboring places and Cobalt, good on any\n(rain, of which there are three ln each\ndirection daily.\nIn Its summary of the state of the\nlocal stock market during the week\nprevious to the date of this issue, it\nis recorded that It was unusually quiet.\nYet its record shows that transactions\non the Standard Stock and Mining Exchange for that week amounted to\n$10,78-1 shares of the aggregate value\nof $.1.16.053.42, this apart from. cuCb\ntransactions, of which there were not\na few. These shares were in 29 of\nthe 602 mining companies which have\nbeen Incorporated to carry on mining\nIn that district.\nThe future of fhe country of which\nCobalt Is the centre, as a mining camp,\nis evidently a very attractive one; and\nIf Mort'ton Frewen's views, expressed\n'before the Canada club In the city of\nVancouver on May 12, were acted upon and would have the effect which\nhe so confidently anticipates such action would have in raising the price\nof silver to something like one dollar\nper ounce, it, as well as the Slocan,\nwould soon have such a boom ns has\nseldom been seen.\n\"One Touch of    Nature    Makes    the\nWhole World Kin.\"\nWhen a rooster flniis n big fat worm ho\ncalls nil the hens In the farm .yard to\ncome nnd Blmro it.

McMORRIS   Manager\nPOSTMASTERS AND POLITICS\nOne of the striking things of the closing days of the session at Ottawa was\nthe explanutlon of the dismissal of the\npostmaster at Sourls, Manitoba, and\nthe announcement of ministerial policy made in connection with the matter, The reason given for the dismissal of the Souri spostmaster was that\nHon. Clifford Slfton had made a complaint of political partisanship against\nhim and the policy laid down by Hon.\nRodolphe Lemieux, postmaster general, speaking on behalf of the government, was that In any case where a\ncomplain was made hy a liberal member of parliament against a postmaster\nof taking any part In politics against\nthe party in power his dismissal\nshould follow.\nThis ruling. It will Ihe noted, does\nnot mete out punishment to postmasters for taking part in politics, 'but for\ntaking pan ln them against the party\nin power. All that a liberal member,\nhas to do is to lay a complaint of th^s\nkind against a postmaster and off goes\nthe latter's official head, without an\ntfiVestlgutlun or chance for explanation. The liberal member's word is accepted without question and acted upon, no mutter what may be the merits\nof the case.\nOutside of eveiy other consideration,\nis not this grossly unfair to the post*\n-masters of this country, who, by this\nruling, are put up under the thumb of\nany two-penny half-penny tyrant who\nmay he elected a liberal member of\nparliament. By this ruling postmasters are forced either to take no part\nin politics or to support the candidate\nof the liberal party in their respective\nconstituencies. To show any desire to\nsupport an opposition candidate, and a\nrefusal to work for a nominee of the\nliberal party can be taken as one\nmeanB instant offical decapitation. The\ngovernment's attitude appears to he\nthat postmasters are employees of the\nliberal party and not of the people. No\nmatter how active a part a postmaster\nmay take In politics In support of the\npowers that be at Ottawa he is safe.\nThis htts been shown time and again.\nNo complaint that a conservative\nmember, who is just as much a represent at. ve of the people as s a government supporter, may make will be\nlistened to.\nThe government's policy in regard to\ntftls matter is a grossly unfair one.\nEither the postmasters of the country\nshould not be allowed to take any\npart whatever in politics, or they\nshould he allowed to support whatever\nparty they may see fit.\nINVESTIGATION   AT COA8T\nIt is announced from the coast that\nsome complaints against Capt. James\nOaudin, agent or the department of\nmarine and fisheries at Victoria, are to\nbe investigated, Col. F. B. Gregory,\nHon. William Templeman's agent in\nthe late election, having been appointed a commissioner for the purpose.\nJust what these complaints are Ib not\nknown, but it is quite significant that\nthe investigation Is not to be of the\nsame sweeping character as that conducted by judge Cassels In the east-\nJust why the investigation should be\nconfined to the actions of one man is\na question which requires an answer\nfrom the government.\nIt will be remembered that at the\ntime of judge CassePs investigation,\nIt was expected that he would visit the\nPacific coast and look into matters\nthere. For some reason, however, this\nwas not done and, if the same corrupt\npractices obtained there as in the east,\nthe fact was not brought out. There\nwas some comment at the time, for\nrumors were flying thick and fast that\nall was not well, but Capt. Gaudln's\nname was not connected with any of\nthem. The News holds no brief for\nCapt. Gaudln, but at the same time is\nat a loss to understand why the present investigation is to be confined to\ncharges against him. If Capt. Gaudln\nhas done wrong he should he punished,\nibut so also should any other marine\nemployees at the coast who have been\nguilty of grafting.\nEDITORIAL   NOTES\nThe people of Kaslo are to be congratulated on the success of their annual celebration yesterday.\nSurely someone would have lent the\ntoard of trade a Union Jack or a Canadian ensign to fly on Its flag staff\nyesterday.\nNot only did Reglna not win the\nMinto cup, but the advertising it expected out of Its attempt to do so\nturns out to be of the wrong sort.\nA Victoria paper announces that island Btrawberrles will be on the market within a week. That is encouraging. Some people, at least, have had\nsome summer weather.\nNow that May 24 Is over, it is time\nto commence preparation for Nelson's\nannual Dominion day celebration.\nEvery one should co-operate to make\nit the greatest event of Its kind ever\nheld In the Kootenays.\nYesterday's score showed the relative merits of the New Westminster lacrosse team and the all-star aggregation rounded up by Reglna for the express purpose of lifting the Minto cup.\nPerhaps the Tecumsehs of Toronto\nwill now think better of their intention\nof Journeving west in quest of the\nsame trophy.\nHon, Rodolpre Lemieux, postmaster\ngeneral, says that the government's\npolicy is to dismiss, without investigation, postmasters on the complaint of\nliberal members that they have taken\npart in politics in the Interests of the\nopposition and sir Wilfrid Laurier concurs. Isn't that statesmanship of a\nhigh order?\nThe Hamilton Herald says: \"It is\nconcede that the waters of Hecate\nstraits are Canadian territorial waters\nand therefore under Canadian jurisdiction. But the plea is sure to be made\ntbat Canada ought to allow American\nfishermen to continue freely to take\ntlie halibut out of these waters In or-'\nder that evidence may be given of\nfriendliness towards Uncle Sam.\"\nAbdul Kept Digging \u2022\nCONSTANTINOPLE, May 24-r-A local newspaper Is authority for the\nstatement that Abdul Hamld, the de\nposed sultan, has transferred bank deposits amounting to something like\n$5,000,000 to the government.\nA  KOOTENAY PUBLICATION.\nJ. C. Harris, of New Denver, on Brit\nish Columbia Problems.\nAmong the varied productions of\nKootenay to date literature has not\nfilled a very important place. The\nfirst step towards remedying this defect has been taken by J. C. Harris,\nof New' Denver, In the publication of\na book on \"British Columbia Problems,\" which Is printed, by the Cusack\nPrinting company of Victoria, and\npublished by the Thomson Stationery\ncompany. Vancouver.\nAccording to Ma. Harris the problems of British Columbia are altogether economic. The Bubjects he\ntreats are: \"TheAbUBe of the Crown\nGrant in Mining Property,\" \"Our Forests, Their Preservation or Destruction,\" \"Civil Service Reform,\" \"Betting on Elections,\" \"The Socialist\nParty.\u2014Its Slow Growth,\" \"Tfie Right\nto Go to Law,\" \"Public Ownership of\nTelephones,\" and \"The Disappointed\nFruit Growers.\"\nDuring his residence at New Denver\nMr, Harris has been an occasional contributor to the press, including The\nDally News. He Is always to the fore\nwith suggestions for reform,\nHis present volume is a summary of\nopinions formed during a long residence Ip British Columbia.\nMr. Harris proposes a novel method\nof taxing mining property, to make the\nowner put a value on It with the penalty of being forced to sell If any one\noffers 5, per cent, above-his estimate.\nHe condemns a system by which\nmines are allowed to He Idle without\nthe owners' titles being thereby Impaired,\nThe views expressed on other subjects are generally radical hut there\nare many others who agree with Mr.\nHarris,\nHowever, It Is not necessary that\none agree with Mr. Harris* views to\ncongratulate him on having formed\ndefinite views on a number of important public questions and having the\ncourage to expose them to general\ncriticism, and to wish him well in his\nliterary  venture.\nFRED IRVINE & CO.\nRheumatism.\nMore than nine out of every ten cases of\nrheumatism are simply rheumatism or the\nmuscles, due to cold or damp weather or\nchronic rheumatism.

The pitch was in excellent\ncondition and runs came fast on both\nsides, a total of 297 being scored in\nfour hours and a half.\nThe steamer Kokanee was late in\narriving and play did not begin until\nafter luncheon, about 2 o'clock. Procter went in first and were all out in a\nlittle over an hour for 65 runs, of\nwhich F. .T. Summons contributed 45\nby very free hitting and R. N. Brassey\n15 by more careful work. The majority of the players from the Outlet\nfound the bowling of Stubbs and Butler too difficult to solve.\nNelson then went in and were quite\nat home. Of nine player swho went to\nthe wickets, seven made double fig-\ntires. J. D. Kerr and A. H. Stubbs\nhad a particularly long and profitable\npartnership, \u25a0*\u2022\nAt 167 with two wickets still in hand\nCapt. Coppen declared his innings closed. To score a victory by an innings\nit wa3 necessary io dispose of Procter\nfor lees that, 102 runs In the hour and\n*t half remaining before the hour, 7\no'clock, agreed upon for drawing the\nstumps.\nTnis task was accomplished. Th\u00ab\nvisitors just duplicated the score of\ntheir first innings arid were all otft\nwithin the hour.\nThe match was an excellent one for\nboth players and spectators. The Proc-\nTfer men did very creditably for a team\nthnt has had no practice. Sammons\nand Johnstone were their most effective bowlers, but the fielding of all\nwas prompt and accurate.\nThe home team Is probably tbe\nstrongest in general batting ability\nthat has ever represented Nelson.\nThere Is promise of a lot of good cricket during the season. The next game\nwill probably be during the meeting\nof the synod. The score was as follows:   \u25a0\nProcter, 1st Innings.\nBedford,  1. b.  w,.
