ftfW. i> ^^^ 'Aslruz. Daily British Columbian. VOLUME 1 NEW WESTMINSTER, B. 0., WEDNESDAY EVENING, AUGUST 25, 1886. NUMBEK 22 gail-u\%\ritisk cMtimbian Wednesday Evening, Angnst ali. ISM. The expedition to watch the total eclipse of tho sun, which takes place on the 29th of this month, by this timo havo arrived in the island of Grenada, where the observations are to be made. It is feared that from its being in the rainy season, the likelihoods aU are tliat no great success will crown the effort. Everything possible is bojng done to make the expedition successful, but foggy weather and weeping skies cannot be provided against. —Globe. now to Free Ireland. Tlie Chicago Inter-Ocean says: "There is a well-defined difference of opinion among Irish patriots as to ways and means. This diversity is not a division into hostile factions, and perhaps will never develop into schism, but it is plain, and lust Saturday's great demonstration in Chicago served, ns such a gathering necessarily would, to accentuate the difference, if not to widen the breach. Mr. Finerty is the best known representative of what mny be called tho old school. Mr, Parnell nnd Michael Davitt represent the new school. O'lbonovan Rossa cannot claim fellowship with Finerty, although as between thc two he belongs on that side. Tlie old sohool still clings to the idea of achieving Ireland's absolute independence of England, or at least forcing the British empire to concede Irish demands, and the ways and means which it relies upon may be summed up in the one word, force. This method has been tried ever sinco the contest began, centuries ago. Indeed, force is the instinctive natural reliance of self- assertion of man and brute, us old as animal existence itself. The new school, not of moral suasion but of political action, with all that tlur term politics can mean, belongs to modern times and advanced civilization. On general principles, then, the latter method commends itself to the sympathies of the intelli gent aud thoughtful public. Looking at the matter more specifically, it is simply incomprehensible to us that a man of Mr. Finerty's brain power and familiarity with the course of events should for a moment entertain the idea that Ireland or the Irish can hope evertouchieve the end in view by force. Tho examples of Greece and Hungary were cited by Mr. Finerty last Saturday as illustrating the feasibility of such a thing. It is true that Greek independence was the conclusion of a war undertaken for that purpose, but it is to be remembered that Turkey had already become the Sick Man of the East, and that it suited the purposes of the other great powers that the Ottoman empire should be crippled by the loss of that limb. Jor five hundred years Greece had chafed and fretted undor the Paynim yoke and found no escape from it. England is not the Sick Man of the West, and it is to be hoped that Ireland will not continue to be "the most'distressful country," as the play has it, until that day. It may como, but such a prospect is too remote to lo a star of hope, a basis of expectation. As for Hungary, its effort at independence of Austria signally failed, and to-day the two countries are linked together about as closely ns England and Scotland. Hungarian experience forcibly illustrates the wisdom of the new rather than the old method of deliverance. Mr. Davitt's speeoh of Suturdny was a masterpiece of good senso nnd manliness. There was nothing iu it which savored of rant, bluster, or exaggeration. He pointed out with convincing clearness what ton yenrs of the new school method had achieved for Ireland, without indulging in any unfriendly reflections upon the old methods. He did not go into ecstnoies over Gladstone, forgetting 1881, and approving tho land purchase part of his sehome; nor, on the other hand, did he allow tho "suspect" policy of five years ago and the defects of his latest plan to blind him to the grand hero- iiuti whioh jeopardized, and, as it proved, sacrificed party supremacy m the interest of Ireland. Tho nd- dress showed Uie loftiest statesmanship and tho purest patriotism. The wrongs of Ireland cannot be righted by burning words of nuntheinn. They demand, rathor, for thoir redress the very highest statesmanship, which is practical politics, vitalized by conscience and brains." n McLBAN, M. D. Offick — McKenzie St., opposite the Lookup.

If Russia instigated the deposition of Prince Alexnnder, as is generally supposed, it is quite possible she muy have oven eachcd herself. The popularity of the prince seems to have been such as to secure for liim the earnest sympathy of a majority of both soldiers and civilians. These people have felt hoth themselves and the nation outraged by the revolutionists, and are uow taking active measures to restore matters to their former condition, Possibly the revolutionists supposed that tlie restlessness of public sentiment in Bulgaria might be relied upon to support any scheme involving change. Uut the people liave given proof both of loyalty aud of a determination to uphold constitutional authority. They liave expressed freely their disapproval of the revolution ami liave promptly organized a government which they propose to support in opposition to the one set up by Russian intrigue. It Was expected that these revolu- tianary proceedings would become a pretext for active Russian interference in Bulgarian affairs, and that expectation has not been disappointed. A portion of the Russian press already hints that the state of anarchy prevailing makes it expedient that Russia should step, in and pre vent the spread of the revolution. Nothing, we are convinced, would better suit her purpose; but it may happen thut the other powers will have some objection to interpose against such a proceeding. We need not expect much from Germany, but Turkey and Great Britain are very much interested in keeping Bulgaria absolutely free from Russian influence. Further developments will be looked for with very great interest. The Modern Duel. Particulars of the duel lately fought between Gen. Boulanger and Baron de Lareinty have come to hand, and they show very strikingly the silliness of the "code of honor" as understood and practised nowadays. The two principals conversed freely witli each other for a quarter of an hour while the seconds were measuring ofl' the ground and making final arrangements for the deadly combat. When they had l>een placed in position, the word was given. At the word "one" the principals were expected to take aim at each other, and fire after the word "two." The aim was taken; but we are told that although Bou- langer aimed at liis opponent, before the second word wns uttered he lowered his aim perceptibly, and evidently did not intend to do any injury with his weapon. De Lareinty, seeing this movement on the general's part, fired his pistol obliquely, while Boulanger snapped his and found it would not go ofl'. Lareinty thereupon walked up to Boulanger and, either with genuine or assumed anger, demanded the reason why he had not fired at hiin. "Monsieur le Baron," replied the general, "1 did not mean to offend you by omitting to fire at you. You see my pistol has missed fire." The seconds then came up and declared that the conditions of the duel liad been fulfilled and honor Was satis fied. When this official intimation had been given Boulanger and Lareinty shook hands, and each protested that he was glad beyond measure at the escape of his antagonist. Gen. Boulanger is minister of war in France, and Union Lareinty is a man of high position. "Whether these two really wished to kill each other we do not know, and, perhaps, it does not much matter, but the whole performance strikes one as extremely ridiculous, What kind of moral sentiment must prevail where two men of education and refinement would deliberately endeavor either lo commit murder for n supposed or real insult, or consent' to such an ompty and childish sham as the one which we havo lieen endeavoring to describe! There is nothing really manly in a duel. It is only those who have given themselves up to a false and heartless philosophy that could be brought under tin* silly spell of a creed or a practice that demands human blond as tlie price of offended dignity. Instead of being inauly, therefore, it is devilish, because those who do these tilings are beyond (jueafion acting under satanic influence.

It is tlie intention of the new proprietors to carry a full stock of ready made clothing, gents' furnishing goods, ite., and to keep a first-class outfitting store in ovory respect. Did Not Get Left,—The courso of true love ts evidently not smoother in Nicola than it is in New Westminster, or anywhere elso fur that matter, Tho story comes uf a young man there who quito recently travelled a distance of 20 miles with his rig ono Saturday evening with tho intention of driving a fair ono to church next morning. But whilo he quietly slumbered and dream't of tho morrow a jealous rival closed not his eyelids. Tho latter determined that the expectations of tlie follow with tho rig Bhould not be realized, ami at his instigation, it is presumed, tho horso was stolen from the stable, hitched to tho buggy, and driven back to the stables uf the owner before morning. When the rising sun sliono in at the bed-room window of tho young man and lie went to groom his pony for thu drive liis consternation cau better bo imagined than described. Nothing daunted, howover, he borrowed a buggy from ono friend, a horse from another and carried tho young lady off in triumph to tho house of worship. As an appropriate termination to thia interesting episode ho no doubt proposed and was accepted, as he does not appear to be one uf the kind that "getaleft." The Inlet Extension.—The Vancouver AWsof yosterday says: "An official of tho engineering department of the C.P.R. left this town on Tuesday last nnd took with him the plans of tlio proposed trestle bridge in front of the enjoined proporty between Vancouver and Port Moody. These plans were forwarded on tho train to Mr. Van Horno for his approval, and he- iB now considering them, the officials here' awaiting advices from him to start work. Duplicate plana were also sont to Hon, Mr. Popo, minister of the department of railways and canals, at Ottawa, to obtain the sanction of the government for the use of the foreshore opposite tho property under injunction. It is expected that the matter will lie satisfactorily arranged, and that orders will come before long to commence thc building of the trestle-work forthwith. Tho wholo of tho road-bed between Hastings and Port Moody is now ready fur the rails to bo laid, with the exception of the property under injunction—about two and throo-quarter miles. Between Vancouver and Hastings the grading will be finished by tho 15th of next nionth. Between the Hastings mill and English fiay the road-bed will be ready for the mils on October lst."

Reports of the New Westminster, Chilliwhack, and Vancouver local unions were road and received. A verbal report from tho Victoria union was given by Mrs. D. M. McNaughten, and was roceivod, coupled with a voto of sympathy with Mrs, McNaughton in hor lato affliction, and rojoiciug that she is permitted to be with us at the present convention, A motion making Mrs. Crosby of Fort Simpson? Miss Proubstol of Washington Territory, and Miss McAdams of Sacramento, members uf this convention, was unanimously passed, and responded to iu a very fueling manner by Miss Pwebstel. Thc superintendent's report of work amongst lumbermen and sailors was read aud adopted, Tho noon hour of silont prayer was then observed, followed by adjournment. The aftornoon session opened with devotional exorcises, led by Mtk, C, Chadsey. Roport of committeo on finance* was* received and adopted as read.

Tliu treasurer's report was road and roforred back for curroc- ; tions suggested by tho convention. The committee on resolutions reported as follows: J. Resolved, That -wo acknowledge with devout thankfulness tho loving kindness and tender mercy of our Heavenly Father, inasmuch as during tho past year our ranks have not been broken by death, Carried, 2. Resolved, That this convention exnresB its gratitude to Ood that in tho onler of His providence Mra. Youmans has boen permitted to visit our province, and by her able and instructive lectures, her impressive gospel temperance addresses and appropriate and entertaining meetings with our Ban-Its of Hope, to give fresh impetus to all temperance work. It jb further gratifying that her efforts have not only gladdened and encouraged the friends of temperance, but have also arrested the attention and awakened interest in tlie minds and hearts of tho indifferent. We wish also to express our appreciation uf the benefit of Mrs. Youmans' presence with us at this convention, materially aiding ub in our deliberations by licr long experience and wisdom, and we devoutly pray Almighty Ood that her useful life may long be spared, and that her influence may be ever felt wherever her lot be cast. Carried, U. Resolved, That whereas Mrs. Lucas, president of the British W.C. T.U. and also president of the world's W.C.T.U., iB engaged to attend tho national convention of tho W.C.T.U. of tho U.S.A., it is btost desirable that an invitation bo extended to her through MiBS Willard to visit this provinco beforo returning to her native land. 4. Resolved, That feeling the importance of eventually possessing a national organ, we recommend that the Women's Journal, of Ottawa, be recognized as the official organ for this province, and be patronized by thc ladies of the various unions. Carried. 5, That recognizing that the hope of the country lies in the education of the children, wo would earnestly recommend ihat scientific instruction in the effects of alcohol on the human system be made a branch of instruction in our public schools, and that it be included in the subjects upon which publio school teachers ahall be examined. Resolved, That steps be taken to send in a petition to this effect at the next session of the legislature. 9. Resolved, That as several of the unions ot the Dominion of Canada and Australia havo determined to petition the governments of the world against the existing moral evils, particularly intemperance, tobacco and opium, this convention recommend the circulation of a similar petition for B.

Resolved, That wo adopt as part of our work,the procuring of a Sabbath law for the closing of the saloons. Some other resolutions of interest only to the union wore passed, and tin- convention adjourned till Wednesday at 9:30 a. m. MBS. YOUMANS* LKOTUHK. In the evening a lecture was delivered in the Drill Shed under thc auspices of the W. C. T. U. Mrs Spafford, president, occupied the chair. After singing and prayer, tho president introduced the speaker, who proceeded to give a most interesting lecture, taking for her subject tliu effects of alcohol on the human system. It showed, first, the effect of alcoholic stimulants on the human stomach, its change from the healthy and normal state to that of tht; disunited and highly inflammatory condition of the confirmed inebriate. The lecturer next showed its effects upon tho brain, eye, liver, lungs, kidneys and heart; also showing its effect in paralyzing tne nerves of the blood vessels, thereby causing the enlarged aud inflamed nose so often seen in the lover of the intoxicating cup. She also spoke of tho injurious effect of tobacco, especially on tho youth of our country; of the deadly effects of nicotine, shewing that its special affinity is for the heart, causing enlargement of that organ and paralysis of its nerves, thereby largely augmenting the mortality caused by heart disease. Throughout, tho large audience listened to the lecturer with respectful attention, only shewing by occasional bursts of applause that her remarks wero appreciated. A solo, "It Was Rum Thai Spoiled My Boy," a beautiful and pathetic song, was well rendered by Mrs D. Robson. A number of questions were then asked by persons in the audience aud replied to by Mrs Youmans. Another solo,''A Thouaand Years To Come," by Mrs. D. Robson, with chorus by the choir, wee well received by the audience, aud after a few more names had been added tothe pledge, tho meoting adjourned. COMMUNICATIONS. The Cemeteries. Editor Columbian: I was muoh pleased to seo iu your lust issuo that you have called attention to tho very much needed repair* on tlie road loading to the cemeteries, In connection with that, will you allow a few words sue hilly addressed to thoso who have the miniagu* mont of those cemeteries. I would respectfully ask them to consider whether tfio time has not arrivod for taking butter caro oi those grounds, It is true thoy are woll fenced and graded, ami perhaps havo been kept in as good con- ditloii as the moans at disposal would permit, But it is surely time to have thoso grounds, which are now to so many of us forever consecrated, less rough null unsightly. I don't wish to put it anv stronger, Grass might he cultivated, weeds and btuiah ent down iim they appear, and uot once iu a year or two, as is now tlio cane. The three cciriutorles might well allot d a man most uf his time to keep things in order. Civilization. Another Girl or To-Day. DKAR Mr, Korroit; I notice in a past issue of the Cqiai.MiitAS an itoii) ou the "girl of to-day" taken from the Cincinnati Enquirer, and I wonder if our cousins over the way think the " boy of today" altogether beneath their uotleo. If tho girls know nothing about the kitchen, wo may aav tlint the hoys aro hi total ignorance of every thing oxcept how- to smoke bigai-cttoa, talk --dang, and criticize the" girl of today." They are, or imagine they are, iiueoinplialiod when able to di em a littlo on the pinno, play somo daticti muslcOn thu violin, or may he bring homo little sound from the strings of the hsinjn. Ho not be too hanl ou the "girl of to-day." Allow nu, to namo a few of her good qualities. Whilo her dude brothers are Bitting down trying to look intelligent, she, although it may appear rather masculine to some of our gents, branches out to make a living by book-keeping, writing short hand, or by music or school teaching, etc. She abhors the kitchen because when she marries she will hu expected to furnish the wherewithal to support the family; aud she is therefore afraid if she excels iu the art of cookery, when she returns from her arduous labors she may have to turn in and get dinner, while her intelligent husband, who has been loafing during business hours, looks on, A Gnu. or To-Dav. New Westminster, Am;. 2(1. surgical Operation. Kditor Columbian: Your report of thc surgical operation at thc hospital iu yesterday's issue is manifestly unjust and misleading. In the first place, you Hay it was a very diflicult 'operation. Any surgeon knows how diflicult it is to remove an innocent fatty tumor, about the size of a hen's egg. Then the report goes on to say that it had bafllod flic medical skill of the province. Now: do you think becauso a couple of Victoria doctors, on account of the innocent character of the tumor, advised against operating, as in their opinion it wonld never in all human probability interfere with the functions of life, is it just that such a vile insinuation should ho flung at the head of the profession in the provinco 1 You are not correct in the location of tho tumor; it was situated about midway botween the angle of tho jaw and chin, and not in the nock nor in close relation to any vital tissue. Now,sir, in conclusion, I do not liko thc idea of detracting from worthy efforts on the part of any doctor to advance the medical science, but this operation so loudly lauded in yonr report, instead of commending those three doctors, "more properly two," the third doctor is accorded a position given to first year students, and, sir, the operation, imputable to its simplicity aud character of tumor, was unjustifiable and unprecedented in medical jurisprudence.

Col. j Moutodorrotf, eliief of the Roumanian i militia, bns offered tu loud tlio troops to meet I'riuce Alexander and escort him back to Sofia and replace him on the Bulgarian throne. Al. Stntnbor* loti', president of the Tirvnnu provincial government, acting in concert with Ool. Mnntbrrdoff, has summoned the militia of Bulgaria to serve in tha interest of Alexander. M. Stambouloff declares tliat the garrison at Sofia which seeuio.l tlie revolution is ready to surrender to nny government properly repio-ontiug the deposed prince, provided llio soldiers nre assured of amnesty. OoNSTANTiNui'LK, Aug. 24.— A second provineinl government has been set up iu Miliaria, with hondtpiarters lit Tiniovn. This is organized .in oppn- ] uitiuii to thnt of Karavololf, and it ! favors Alexander. StamborlofT wns made president of the Tirnovo government. He is one uf the men whose names wero printed yesterday by tho Knrnveloff government to convince tlie people that nit the prominent . men of tho country supported the revolution, London, Aug. 24. - -Parnell was loudly cheered in the commons tonight tin vising to resume the debate ■ on tho address iu reply tu tho Queen's ; He said he believed that if the coun- ■ try bad been given throe weeks more ! to consider the home rule bill, thu , Tiiiies would nob bo seen installed oil tae treasury liunohoB. The party had every reason to bo satisfied with the presont position. A majority uf tlio Liberal party had declared in favor of j Irish autonomy. Tho Tories had only profited from a temporary Liberal hosi- tntion, After the prosont govornmont : had exhibited themselves for a your or so—a spectacle for Gud or man—hi an attempt to govern Iroland, tho Lib- ! orals1 hesitation would vanish. Ire- , land had ovory reason to have patience: theirs was the winning cause. If government speeches wore intended to exasperate and threaten, they would {fall to havo that effect. At the snine ! timo there would be considerable difficulty with the rent question. Ho regretted that the government had not j appreciated the gravity of thu situation. The royal commission would bo unable to report until the pinch of j winter was over. If thu system of dual ownership Wiw to replaced by a | system of single ownership, thoro would bo risk to English taxpayers, Parnell said ho had agreud to the adoption uf the laud purchase bill of . 1885 beoause he thon believed that thu settlement of the national question - wuuld come concurrently, nnd because tbe Con.Horvative government had sent Ui Ireland Lord Carnarvon whu was nn announced homo ruler. Now the , conditions wore entirely changed. \ Gliulstuuo'H purchase scheme would ,h»Ve safely settled the land question, j Kvery penny of principal and interest could liavo 'been collected through the customs and exeise duties, and tho money would have been tis safe as the bank of England. If the government j thought of solving the Irish question [ without settling the land question, it i would iiiul that ft had yot hold of tho wrung end of a very thorny stick. (Cheers). The governmont must reduce rents either at the expense of tho landlords or the expense of the British taxpayers. Parnell denounced the dishonesty tif attempting to stimulate industries by liberal doses of English public money. He said the Irish peoplo bitterly refused to sell their birthright for it mess of pottage, which the govornment offered. (Parnel lite cheers). The way to develop the resources of Iroland was to* allow the Irish to develop thoni themselves. (Cheers). They did not want an influx ot capital, for there was plenty of that ill Ireland, j They wanted to be allowed to help j themselves. (Conservative cheers.) ! The government allowed the Irish to ! build harbors, drain land, and general- j ly develop the resources of the country when they did not allow the Irish to reap the benefit. (Cheers), The i Irish party repudiated the proposed fraud on the British taxpayer. Lot tlio government which obtained ollice by misrepresentation (he would not say lying) pursue their own way and establish a wholesale system of bribery and corruption, (Cheers) Parnell hero read his amendment to the address, and, proceeding, ho said that judicial rents were too high. He accused the government of encouraging landlords to evict by the wholesale, knowing that agrarian crimo always follows eviction. Why did tenants, submitting to moonlight raids, refuse to give evidence i Because, taking Kerry as an example, tenants knew* that before moonlight raids Lord Kill- wore would not leave a roof over the heads of his tenants. The Irish would be patient, but the inducement held out by landlords, who tried to exact \ impossible rents, would bear fruit and j might produce exasperation. Land- \ lords would clamor for coercion and ! force, and the government meant to adopt coercive measures. Yes, he be- lievod that coercion would come, and very severe coercion too; a coercion that would not stop at criminals, but attack political opponents. If he might offer a suggestion he would urge that judicial tenancies be fixed at three years instead of fifteen years, and that there should be a revision of rents in accordance with prevailing prices, In conclusion he said the Irish would never submit to a government not their own. (Cheers). Tho question of an autonomous government woultl always be fixed in the hearts of tho Irish people. (Prolonged cheers). Gladstone, upon rising, was loudly cheered. Hu began by accusing the government of having taken nil unusual course in going so far outside of the speech from the throne. He did uot remember an occasion in fifty years when a government thought it politic to use au address ns an opportunity for explaining its policy beyond the compass of tho speech, lie thought tho government should have reserved the main lines of their measures till the issues themselves oould bo presented, but he was unwilling to complain of tho action of the governmont. He intimated that he would take no pnrt in the division on the Parnell amendment because he deprecated any attempt to force a definite premature expression of opinion on the polioy whioh the government foreshadowed. For their fu- I ture guidance their policy, however, was open to remark. It bore upon five different points namely: The issue of a royal commission, questions "f public work, land purchaso, an inquiry j into land rents, and the subject of I local government. He believed that the policy of the government was not a sober one, but was eminently complex and difficult. Gladstone described the policy of the government as an absolute invasion of tlie policy of the ! late government. Instead of giving Ireland self-government they pro- ! posed that Kngland should govern ', Ireland to a greater extent than it did j at" tho present timo. His govern- ment had proposed that the rents rev- j enuo of Ireland be taken as security I fur land purchase loans. He only hoped that the critics who condemned that security would be equally vigilant concerning the security now proposed. *3!ho government, ho continued, evidently intended to adopt a largo scheme of land purchase! Was tho tenant, he asked, to be treated upon the basis of tho real rentable value of property, and tlio landlord on the basis of judiein; rents, nud was the state to make up the difference!
