Details #pcctjng (the qutrare committed upon tKe Chinese at Vancouver laat week leave no doubt that it was a heartless and brutal affair. The Ohinamen were driven from their camp roughly, and we are ield thst three er four big strong netware teen Woking.one poor, holpless ^Chinaman who was afraid to anVrths slightest resistance. Several of them were driven into the water and kept standing there with the .thermometer near the point of fueling, The law should deal firmly with the men who'were guilty of this inhuman conduct. These Ohinamen were committing no wrong in coming to Vancouver in search of employment, and they wen just as much entitled to protection as if they had been white men. It it not the Ohinese who are to blame, but those who bring them into the place ahd give thom employment ' It Js not necessary for us to repeat that we regard the presence of large numbers of China- men in this country as a great evil, and that every fair and legitimate means should be. employed to get rid of them. But so long as they are here and behave themselves, they must' have the protection of British' 'law. ' What would toese cruel and thoughtless people who abused the Chinese at Vancouver think jf they were in China and received suoh treatment at the hands of the people of that country! It is a -poor rule that does not work both ways. If we refuse protection to Ohinamen in British Columbia, we need' 'hot be surprised to learn that m China all protection is withdrawn from British subjects, and they ere forced to suffer insult and indignity. We must expect to receive tie same kind of treatment we give. , j* tkeHw»M-Amis. Last week we devoted considerable spsoe to a discussion of the Vt»ttta_m'Herald1! remarks on the presont political, contest in this distriot, and pointed out how wholly our coteioporary misapprehended some ol tne matters which he attempted to discuss, and how cun- mujir he misrepresented others. In hislHue ot Friday our cotemporary return, ,to the subject and projects soma nee ideas, quite in keeping with.his former observations. As these ideu, or some of them, ore being industriously circulated by Mr. Chisholm and his followers with'lhe object of making capital against Mr. Trapp, we hope our readers will pardon us if we refer again to the Herald's criticism. Our ootemporary says that temperance is not tho main question in this election, asd lays it down as a principle that "a man's life ought to be a better guarantee of character than a promise." It may be true that temperance it not the main issue in this contest, hut it is an issue nevertheless of very great importance. Would '«ut' extemporary be good enough to tell us what the "main" issue u' Then 'a onl)r question, we believe, mentioned in Mr. Ohisholm's oddres with which Hr. Trapp has not deohrrcd himself in sympathy. In Mr, Trapp's address there are only two subjects mentioned which Mn OUtfcolm cannot endorse—one it 'tte'temperanee question and the otHtr is the question of Ohinese laMr. Now, what is the "main" question! Our ootemporory's principle—"* -ana's life ought to be a better guarantee of character than a nron|te"—we are disposed to accept In this instance without quali- fioattCD. Let ut see how the appli cation of it will effect the standing of tfca.two candidates. Against Mr. Trapp as a citisen, or against Ua badness, no charge has been made even by the Herald. He stands betere ths public, so far as we know, blMtdraa; so that his life ought to be a very good guarantee of character'. Against Mr. Chisholm the '* accusation is made that for "»" of years post he has been ui a business whioh has | tlian anything else to de- oorse and blast the lives of his felk)* men. He has oarried on this pernicious business not be- oauas it was patriotio or in the pub- Uc'ttte-eet, but because it brought n-ohey into' hie strong box out of tha pockets of its miserable victims, ofojJH»»^*Jianapromise." Judg-d byfcjeilevn prinsiple, bow can our eotttapomry find a guarantee of iillaOTlWll 1hi candidate he support*) Ha cannot successfully deny cawef'ttoWcrosttions.

In conclusion tho Herald declares, as it has before declared, that Mr. Trapp. is merely a tool in the hands of Senator Mclnnes. We presume our cotemporary has re oeived this piece of information from Mr. Chisholm, who is industriously circulating it nbout the district But in this, as in other things, onr co- teinporaiy is very likely to be mistaken, and we ask liim now to prove his assertion by credible evidence, or take it back!

X TBAPP. To (lie Electors ofthe Electoral District of New Westminster. GENTDKMEN:—Shortly ufter the lu- meutod death 0f our late Itepresuntntlve, Mr. Homer, IwaH Solicited by a number of my friends, to allow myself to be nominated as a Candidate for the Representation of the District of New 'Westminster In the House of Commons of Canada. The personal solicitation of friends, woe shortly followed by requisitions so numerously signed, by prominent and In linen Ial Electors of the City and District, that I felt tt to be my duty to place my services at their dlspopiil. It is not therefore, Gentlemen, as a self-nominated candidate, that I ask for your support, but I do so In response to the request of over four hundred of your numbor. To many of you, Gentlemen, who hnve known me for a long time, lt )■ unnecessary for me to say, thnt I am perfeotly familiar with the great and varied resources of this Province. My knowledge of Its Mining, Fishing, Agricultural and Commercial advantages has been derived from actual experience, and will (If elected) onable me to placo prominently before Parliament, the great resources of this Province, and the means necessary to be employed to nld ln their further development. It is impossible, Gentlemen, In-an address such ub this to do more than allude to some of tho questions of Interest and Importance to you, whioh as your representative, 1 would consider it to be my duty to bring to the notice of Parliament. I will, however, enumerate a few matters of great importance to us all, ln regard to winch It will bo my earnest endeavour to obtain beneficial legislation. I will endeavour lo have removed from the mouth of onr noble River, every impediment to its froo navigation,nnd nave necessary lighthouses erected. I will endeavor to secure to settlers and squatters an immediate title to their lands. This I consider to bo a matter not only of justice, but also of expediency. Heretofore groat injustice has been done to a valuable nnd deserving class of our population, to whom, had justice boon done and facilities afforded for acquiring homesteads, tbe results of their Industry would, ere this, have done muoh to dovel op the agricultural capabilities of this fine dtstiiet, I am awnro, Gentlemen, that the numbor of representatives to which each province of tho Dominion Is entitled Is based upon population, yet I believe that, owing to exceptional ctrcuoistauccs, such as the fact that this provinco contributes to the revenue of llic Dominion a muoh larger percentage, according to population, than nuy of tiio oilier provinces; and also to the fact that huge centres of population aru rapldlv bring formed In this district- that It Is entitled to a larger representation in tho parliament of the Dominion, and which ns a mutter of justice I will en- donvor to obtain. I wilt itl su endeavour to obtain for tho residents <>r this District bottor postal facilities, to which thoy are Justly on- tilled. I will me my best oflorls to seenre equitable rates on nll railway and telegraph lines, and to have the sumo fixed by law. The Interest'; of British Columbia do- maud thut every Impediment lu thc way of constructing railways to our Hou thorn boundary and other poitlons of this district bo removed to aid iu the development of our resources, Iwlll endeavor to have this necompllslicd. and ulso to ob* tain uid for the construction of canals und the Improvement of navigable streams. I will also consider It my duty to render nll possible nld to nny legislation which seeks lo simplify nml render less costly the administration of Justice, especially as between Individuals und corporations. My (political platform ls, In thc first place, tho interest of llrltlsh Columblu, which I believe can bo best served by my giving an Independent support to the present government, which has not In the past beeu unmindful of the Interests of llrltlsh Columbia, and to whom we are Indebted for the early completion of the railway, which hns brought us Into communication with the Eastern Provinces und Europe, nnd through the agency of which, wo will ln tne near future, be plnced In direct communication with Australia, China, Jnpnn, nnd the Great Eastern Empire, which must prove to hoof Incalculable valuo to this province, nnd to this district In particular. In conclusion, gentlemen, I hnvo only to suy, that I am prompted by a sincere desire lo benefit this district nud to nld lu promoting Kb varied Interests, nnd I nsk your support only upon thoso grounds. It Is my Intention lo see us mnny of you previous to the election as time and circumstances will admit of In thc meantime, I remain, Gontlemon, Yours vory truly, dwfefitd DONALD CHIHHODM. asroTioB.

He had a wifo and three ohildren. Hta patron and employer had a wife, who ia a sister to one of the richest mon in America and in the world. The seoretaiy met her and tho twain were u flax and flame. They out all honor and duty aside 'for one another, and away they went together. She boing immensely wealthy, and he being what may be called riol, they doubtless thought that they oould defy the conventionalities. They wandered to Japan, Egypt, Greece, Russia, seeking, in tho excitement of ohange, relief from self-vepvoaoh. The woman, thinking thot timo hrd wiped ont memory, returned. Bhe had beauty, a great name, immense wealth; aooioty ehonld receive her. She dropped tho role of penitent, ceased toloavo cards whoroehe dreaded thoy would nnt bo returned, and commenced tho formation of a new social circle. Sho had a box at the opera, costly turnouts, gorgeous entertainments. But before the season was half over Bho liad to admit thatsomethingbesides mouoy ia needed to obtain a sure footing in New York society. Her plan had proven a failure. Bhe determined to make another. Sho did: Bhe mado two or three in. as many of our leading oities, always with thesame result. Thon she determined to go to Paris. Sho furnished a handsome apartment, paid her respects at tho American legation, returned the call of the minister's wife, attended churoh assiduously.

Sho went to Dr. Morgan, presented many letters, told hiiaho? desire to obtain a proper presentation in the society ofthe colony, and oiieioil him* donation to his ohuroh of 100,000 francs if he would assist her.

One of his comrades toll mo that he had been moved to tears by the lines: There Is only the sound of the lone sentry's tread, As he tramps front th* look to the fountain, And he thinks of the two on the low trundle bed, In tho cot far away on the mountain. And whon the battle waa orer, when poor Thad. had been roughly saluted by tho grim messenger, and; lay in an un- known grave on a bettle-aoarred slope .'.lining tho Virginia hills, then the literati read and wondered.

JeDOtc THE BRITISH COLUMBIAN Printing Company ON TUB 10TH OF JANUARY, 1887, the Columbian Newspaper and Printing Concern was purchased by a joint stoek company composed of citizens cf Now Westminster, to be known as the "British Columbian Printing Co., Limited." The concern has been for nearly a year owned and controlled by the British Columbia Stationery and Printing Company, of New ,Westm luster, Victoria and Vancouver. The object of the new company Is to continue the publication of the British Columbian newspaper and carry on a general printing and publishing concern, controlled entirely by those whose Individual interest tt will be to promote the development, especially of the Mainland. Thore will be no slackening of thc energy hitherto dis* played In the management of the establishment, and its patrons may rely upon receiving full valuo for their money. The Columbian will continue to be en- tiroly Independent in both Dominion and provincial politics, and will devote itself to the advancement of snch schemes as may bo considered in the public interest. Tlie concern is now entirely separate from any other business, the book and stationery establishment In this oity having been taken over hy Mr, T, R. Pearson, who will continue to carry it on in his own namo and for his own benefit. It is desirable that a daily newspaper should be maintained in this oity, and tho new company oaks for publio patron- ago on the ground that it is engaged in an enterprise calculated to promote tho public welfare It aska tbat the Columbian be judged on iti own merits and supported only ao long as ito polioy ts consistent with its professions. In consequence of this business ohange all accounts duo the concern must be settled without delay so that the books of the former company may bo adjusted and closed.
