Ha contended that the prawnt govern ment hid nude iti disbursements on the principle of supporting Us supporters, which was subversive of all good government. The two constituencies which had recoived the largest appropriations were Lillooet and Cowichan, and both were represented by members of the cabinet, This system of distributing the revenues was a species of refined bribery. The government claimed to bo a government Of roads and bridges, but in spite of tho fact that Westminster district waa the principal district in tho province, there was a decrease in the appropriation of $5,000, although the trunk road and the road to .Vancouver wero in a shocking condition. It waa utterly impossible to maintain traffio between Westminster and Vanoouver unless that road was improved, and •6,000 ought to be placed in the supplementary estimates for this purpose. Ho said the statements of thO provincial secretary respecting tha dry-dock refund were a hare delusion. Ho challenged the provincial secretary to resign his seat and contest the distriot with him. Referring to th* Vancouver extension of the 0. P. B. ho said the pretence that the Oompany had been hindered in its extenion by private property holders was absurd. Tno Oompany had shown a degree of rapacity unexampled in Canada in ten dering private owners (10 an acre for land which had cost 16,000. It was not truo that $50,000 or $60,000 had been oflered for the right of way. It oould have been secured for a smaller sum than that. He criticised the mannor in which Sublio business had been conducted uring the session, and said the fourth portfolio had been kept dangling before the house as a bribe. The only thing in .whioh th* government had shown consistency was in getting into debt, and if things wero allowed to go on tho oountry would soon bo ruined He referred to a matter in which he was engaged professionally in obtaining some land for F. Kelly, and said tho publication of tho correspondence between himself and tbe govemment waa cowardly and ungentlemanly. The statements of tha agent at West minster were false and malicious in tho extreme, and an attack upon his professional reputation, He objeot ed to the polioy of the government generally, and expressed the opinion that the proposed loan would not be favorably motived by the oonntry. —Mr. Higgins spoke in defense of the estimates, after which Itt. Dunsmuir defended the loan. He said we had a large country, but it must be settled up before we could get a revenue, and wa must not bo amid to go into debt The provinoe had never madt satisfactory advancement until the present government came into offloe. Tbe lata administration had brought the finances into a muddle and left it* successors a legacy of debt and disorder. He was not in favor of Chinese. Large numbers of them were a curse to the country, but we were bound to give them th* protection of our law*. He had let more contracts, perhaps, than any other man in the Iiouse, and h* had Mver let a contract without A clause excluding Chinese labor. Fears had been expressed that the govemment would not bo able to manage the million loan, but the people had shown confidence in th* government by sending to the house such a strong government majority. He claimed that tha Dominion govemment ought to have liberty to charter and build a* many railway* as it wished in Uio province. A Triple Alliance! PURPORT OF THE NEW TBEATY FORMED BY THE POWERS.

All three will undertake the protection of individual interests, the infringement of whioh might disturb the peace of Europe. It is said at Vienna that the Emperor Francis Joseph will follow the example of Germany and confer the decoration of signor od Dieroblan, the Italian foreign minister. It is said in Paris that the treaty of alliance between Germany, Italy and Austria was signed whilo the attention of France was fixed upon Germany. A former foreign minister of France, said to a correspondent of the London Times: "I would have shrunk from nothing to Frevent the signing of this treaty, whicli consider the most serious and vexatious event for ns that has happened in the last sixteen years."

It is tho practice for an administration to show decMod partiality to its supporters whether they be simply electors or members of parliament, and in this practice it follows that a constituency is often punished for sending ie'p>e*»ntativee to oppose the government No one can shut his eyes to thia fact, however much In* may ngitt the existence of it Our co- temporary 'tnriu again to the election campaign of the provincial sec- Mary' and' intimates that the tac- tfe*to which that gentleman resorted were bribery of the worst kind. So far a* we have been able to learn (rota the debate on Mr. Orr's motion of censure, we do not find proof of thia declaration. It is most probable that the provincial secretary made promises to the electors. What candidate does not make promiaeal Hi he is asked whether be would support any specific scheme forth* benefit of the district or settlement; and believes thst scheme to be in the public interest, of course he will promise to give it his sup- ipoit We presume no candidate got* through an election without making promises of this kind, and ws! *tw not aware that in doing so he violates any principle of moral or civil law. But our cotemporary savs the provincial secretary im ted upon the electors the view jii"tney rejeoted him at the polls they might expect nothing. Well, if the provincial secretary was defeated at the polls, clearly he would' hot be in a position to fulfil any of his promises to tbe electors; and the fulfilment of them was, therefore, necessarily contingent Una hi* election. The same iB true of every candidate, and the man who makes pronmes whose fulfil- m*nt I depends on his receiving a majority of votes cannot surely bo charged with bribing the constituency. We hare not been able to jlna thit' anything more than this was 'proved against the provincial seerytary. His two colleagues from th* district, and' the city represen- iative, accused him of stating that tit* balance of the dry-dock money waa actually in the treasury, where- as it has been shown that the treasury .was; quite empty. But the provincial secretary denies this and maintains tlmt his statement was to the afflict that there was a balance of the refund (about 8100,000) still unexpended, and that it would asaundly be spent on thc mainland. Th* point in which the electors Were certainly most deeply interested: was whether all the dock money had heen spent, and whether the ptoatise of the govemment to spend It on the mainland would beful- (llisd, and both these points were oovered by the statement which the provincial secretary olaims to have made. It mattered very little to tJw p#6pl* whither the money hap- peaed to be actually in th* treasury •t tint'particular time. There is mtly nothing in either statement that looks like in attempt to bribe. ?e are afraid pur cotemporary is s and circumstances for Baking a case against ht where really the . jbrt*$ doubtful to say f* repeat the hope that tb* government will not punish this eitft/fr flistfiot for having eleoted ti?'representatives by of the patronage to Ientitled. whole system, "-"miuator do* to the anf- tweoty-flve cents to DOUGLAS & DEIGHTON, Mnnufactureca nntl ..Importers of Harness, Saddles, Bridles, Whips, etc. NEW WESTMINSTER, B.

In both provincial and Dominion elections, whenever the opportunity offers or the occasion demands. Such an aome ''appropriate tin IreiypBlingdU vision, ali otanbosed fl M electors I-i sympathy with tbe objeifttiebgKt,would, in ooune of time, play an Important part In elections In this city and distriot. The foregoing is, of course, merely an out* line, but enough has been suggested to show that an organtaatlon of thu kin*. Would meet the e-dfteneles of the lap and be far preferable'to any merely selfish and partisan association.whioh would be more likely to'prove'a bane than-a blessing.

The concern has been for nearly a year owned and controlled by tho British Columbia Stationery and Printing Company, of New Westminster, Victoria and Vancouver. The object of tho now company Is to continus the publication of the British Columbian newspaper and carry on a teneral printing and publishing conoern, controlled sntinly by thoso whose individual interest lt will be to promote the development, especially of the Mainland. Then will be no slackening of tho energy hitherto displayed in the management ol the establishment, and ita patrons may rely upon receiving full value for (heir money. The Columbian will continue to be entirely Independent In both Dominion and provincial politics, and will devote Itaelf to tho advancement of such schemes u may be considered in the publio Interest, Tho concern is now entirely separate from any other busineu, the book - »nd stationery establishment In thli oity having-been taken over by .Mr. T. R. Pearson, who will continue to cany it on in his own name and for hia own benefit. It is desirable that a daily newspaper should be maintained in this eity, and the new oompany asks Mf*«Ur9 patronage on the ground that ft Is engaged in an enterprise calculated to promote the publio welfare It asks that the Columbian be judged on Its own merits and supported only so long as its polioy Is consistent with Us professions.

Now, fortifications at Esquimalt cannot materially defend tho mainland iu .caao of hostilities between tho mother country ud somo foreign nation. Why not move the Rocky mountains to the seaboard and use them as coast defences? Fine Birds.—Geo. S. Cox received the other day from San Francisco 4 very fine young . Toulouse Geese. These birds grow to nn immense size, ud uro extremely handsome. Mr. Cox has some old ones that will weigh about 30 lbs. each. It would bo worth while for anv of our citizens who take an interest in barnyard stock to visit the establishment of Mr. Cox on Royal Avenuo and inspect his collection of fancy stock. A Bloodthirsty Celestial.—On Monday last Dr. Tunstall of this town was celled to Lytton to hold an inquest on a Chinaman, named Ah Sue, who died a day or two previous from the effeots of a stab in the leg executed by a brother celestial.

Mr. Oarr says the place is one of the most interesting and beautiful places in British Columbia.— Kamloops Sentinel. m Change or Time.—We learn from an official announcement in thc Guardian, signed by Oapt. Irving and T. L. Briggs, that the time table of the 0. P. N. Oo, is to undergo another change. At present the Yosemite leaves this city for Viotoria at 1 p. m. on Mondsy and at 7 o'clook on Wedneaday and Friday ' mornings. It Is proposed to return to the old timetable, and to despatch steamers from this city on Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday mornings, the Tuesday morning steamer going at 4 o'clock. Tha new arrangement, we observe, does not go into effect until the 30th November, so that the company gives ample notice of the iiitenifcfulialHO. Atthe company's advertisement appears only in the Otiordian we presume it ii calculated that itiwill requira this length of lime to roaoti any considorablo number of people. K.

'• ■' The New Armstrong Buildino.— The new Armstrong building ig oompleted with the exception of the fint coat of paint. Thit building, which it a credit to the city, has a frontage of 66 ft. on Front st. and it 00 ft deep. It ib divided into three'stores, whioh have eaoh dwelling and store houses in their second store™. Tho interiors of these stores havo lieen fitted up handsomely and olegantly, that .of Kwong On Ho being the most elegant of ilia kind in the Province. The total cost of tlie building aa it now is is estimated in tlie neighborhood of $10,000. a , a More Abbreviation.--Yesterday it wat suggested -in these columns that tlio uaino el tliia city aught to ba abbreviated to' Westminster. The principle of abbreviation should alao be extended to some other parte of the district, notably to Ladner's Landing, whioh ought to be simply Ladners. Some years ago the terminus of the Lako Superior steamers on the Canadian Bide was called Prinoe Aithur's landing. At -the suggestion of the writer it waB changed toPrince Arthur for convenience, nnd it it now known ta Port Arthur. There is no need of "Landing" beiug. tacked on to the name of a. place, and' the sooner it is dropped the better. -» One-Sided. — Our cotemporary of tlio Vancouver. Ntivs ■ denounces the government in anything but parliamentary language because it refused to accept Mr. Orr's bill to restore municipal authority within the city limits. "We wish our readers to remember the names of the-degraded banditti that voted down the repeal," shouts our cotemporary. There is no justification for such intemperate language. The members of the house are representatives of the people, and no suggestion hiu been made that their votes on this question were influenced by improper motives. Indeed, we are at a loss to discover any motive other than n desire to afford protection to the Chinese, who. in, the eyet of the law and. in point of fact aro as muoh entitled to protection ub any other resident in the provinoe, Whatever the people of Vancouver may think, the opinion is almost universal outside tliat thb treatment the Chinese received ought to have been rebuked by very severe measures. To say that the opposition, wlio votod for a repeal of the spocial legislation, were animated by pure and patriotio'motives, and that those wlio voted against it were degraded banditti ia to say something no one will believe. Without wishing to cast any reflection upon the opposition members, wo'i-may remark that one would hardly look to that sido of the liouso for nil tlio representative virtue of< the .provinco. Iti is more than probable that when tho'opposition saw how distasteful tho action of the houso wub to the people of Vancouver, it waa determined that this Bhould be worked diffidently as a party dodge in order to gain Vancouver over wholly to the opposition Bide.
