Our relations, ahe tells him,\ncan never, never be conjugal, but\nthey oan be sweetly and profitably\nreciprocal. But Uncle Sam sulks\nnnd is ungallant enough to think\nthat if he declines the fraternal\nrelation she will be worried into\nbecoming his wife.

It contains\nmuch valuable information regarding\nthe fishing industry. The report of\nthe board uf fish commissioners says\nthat Mr. R. D, Hume built a cannery\non Rogue river, Oregon, in 1877 and\npacked that year 3,500 cases. The\nsame year he built a small butchery\nand turned out 50,000 fry. Since then\nhe has put out from 50,000 to 150,-\n000 annually, and his pack has gradually increased to 12,000 cases, which\nhu attributes to tho successful working\nof his hatchery. Tho value of the\nhatchery is proven by the fact that the\npack on neighboring rivers is steadily\ndecreasing. The Oregon government\nhatchery has put uut 0,500,000 salmon\nfry in t wu years at a cost of $10,000.\nDuring the .nine period the Frasor\nrivor hatchery has put out 11,500,000\nwith an outlay of $9,000. From this\nit will be Been tho comparison is greatly\nin favor of tho Canadian hatchery.\nOuelty lo Animals.\nA train load of cattle arrived from\ntho interior yesterday and were unloaded at tho C.P.N.Co.'s corral. Iu one\ncar five animals were found to be\ndead, having been tramped to death\nand soveral others wero terribly injured aud unable to rise. In unloading\nthe cattle the Chinese employed by\nthe C.P.R. used goads with a sharp\nspike on the end fully half an inch in\nlength. With theae the brutes prod*\nded tho animals until the goads were\ncovered with blood, and the indignation of the onlookers whs so much\naroused that Constable Pearce was\nsent for to force them to desist from\nsuch inhuman actions. The poor animals were lashed into fury by the torture practiced on them and the moans\nfrom the wounded animals being trampled on were piteous to hear. It is\ntime that a society for the prevention\nof cruelty to animals was organized in\nWestminster, for this sort of brutal\ntreatment to animals is no unusual\nthing. It is probable a complaint in\nthe matter will be made direct to Mr.\nAbbott, who, it is hoped, will remedy\nthis cowardly abuse.\nSince writing the above tho oar\ncontaining the dead cattlo and two of\nthe wounded was shunted down to the\nO.P.N, corral and one of the animals,\nstill alivo but not ablo to walk, was\ndragged out by horse power, a rope\nhaving been fastened round its neck.\nThe animal was then killed and\nbutchered. The authorities were\ninformed of this last net but what\naction they will tako is not known.\nThe Week's Minimi News.\nOutsido the work that is steadily\nbeing done at Field, the only important bit of news of the week is the sale\nof a half interest in a J ubilee Mountain\nolaim. The pioperty disposed of is an\nundeveloped piece of ground, hut\nfavorably located. Some high grade\ncopper ore, rich in silver, wu taken\nfrom the vein in doing the assessment\nwork. Sheriff Redgrave, the purchaser,\nhas other properties on tho mountain,\nand has done much in aiding the development of the district.

I have been, since Friday the\nHth, confined to my room by an unfortunate accident, and could not be present\nat nomination, and was permitted to be\nout only a couple of hours on Saturday\nnight and one hour this day. I havo\nnot solicited a single vote nor have I\nmade a promise directly or indirectly\nother than what was said publicly on\nSaturday evening. And now that this\nimportant election is over and the progress of the city secured, I would suggest that we havo peace. Let the\nsuccessful candidates guard against a\nspirit of exultation. There were some\nvery good men defeated, Unfortunately\nthey wore considered to bo\nlukewarm, if not hostile, to\nthe Southern Railway enterprise, which\nwas the main question at issue. Notwithstanding the defeat of the other\nside, I do trust that they will fall into\nline in the march of progress. New\nWestminster is on the ascending grade.\nWe must by onr resolute determination\nand ceaseless industry forge ahead and\nconvince the anti-progress party that the\ncouncil eleoted is their truest and best\nfriend. But flrst let us \"bury the\nhatchet;\" we have nothing to gain by exhausting our energies fighting needless battles.\nThe new council will have many\narduous and unpleasant duties to perform ; there must be a complete and radical change in the management of the city\nfinances. I have been looking into the\npublished accounts of tbe oity auditor\nand find this startling fact, out of a\nrevenue of $49,540 from all sources, tbe\npaltry sum of $5,007, was expended on\nstreet repairs. I protest that this is not\na satisfactory showing, but just who is\nresponsible or where to locate the blame\nis difficult to determine, A reformation\nmust be effected, this sort of business\nwill not do. And now that The Columbian has led in the reform movement and\nstruck steady blows with an independence that is refreshing, I hope you will\nfollow up this signal victory and closely\nwatch and fearlessly criticize every\nmovement of every public man in the\noity, and I would odd the district also.\nMuch has beon said about the necessity\nof a market; while I wonld rejoice to see\nsueh an institution established and maintained. I believe it is more months we\nneed; a market without consumers would\nnot be a success. We need to foster\nmore industries; the absence of these iB\nNew Westminster's weakness. Given\nau agricultural, horticultural railroad\nand manufacturing centre, and our high\ndestiny is secured. We cau never obtain any of these advantages so long as\nwe are divided into opposing factions;.\nlet us have peace, but not stagnation.\nOn Saturday night I intended to have\nreferred at aome length to the coming\nX(cultural exhibition, but an unexpect*\n, unfriendly shot from therear occasioned temporary confusion, from wbloh\nthere was not time to recover, and this\nas well as other matters of importance\nwaa overlooked. You aro aware that\nthe honor of the city was pledged to tho\nsupport of the agricultural society at its\nannual meetiug, and that only by careful management was the next show secured for New Westminster. One of the\narguments used againat ua was the paucity of our exhibitions. I think there\nwere four entries for tbe royal eity, a\npoor showing sure enough and a most\ndifficult argument to meet. Only that\nan earnest effort had been made to secure members for the society we ahould,\nhave out a sorry figure. There will be\nno excuse for the absence of electors this\nyoar. There is abundance of time to prepare articles for exhibition, and as this\nis the quiet season of the year, now Is\ntho time to get ready. Every manufacturer in tho city ought to be busily en*\ngaged in this good work. Cabinet\nmakers, carpenters, marble cutters, wood\nturners, shoemakers, tailors,* farmers and\neurrlers, woolen manufacturers, metal\nworkers, painters, florists, and, lut but\nnot least, the ladies\u00E2\u0080\u0094all and every ono\nought to spare no effort to make the agricultural exhibition of 1889, the best\nthat has ever been held in this province.\nThe new council will, undoubtedly devise liberal things, but after they shall\nhave done their best, it will require the\nactive co-operation of every good citizen.\nLet ns go forward.\nYou may put my name down for $30\non the exhibition fund, and mark it paid.\nIn conclusion I would urge every man in\nthe city to become a member of the Agricultural Society.\nVery respectfully,\nThomas Cunningham.\nWksaBsby was slok, we give ber Castoria,\nWhsa she was a Child, -ht cried for Castoria,\nWasa she became Miss, she clon| to Caitccia,\nWhmsto had CUldr*&,sbs gave thsmCsstorts\nW.
