It was evident from this letter which was sent lo Attorney Longfellow to be delivered lo Evelyn Nesbitt, thnt It had been written subsequently to the Interview with Ihe girl nt Ihe Hotel Navarre after their return from Paris ln 1003. At this Intervltw the girl told him of the stories ahe had heard about him and sold she could nol see hlm alone.

KEEP QUESTIONS APART Japanese Do Not Want Mlxup Between Labor and School Issues���Honor Maintained. Toklo, Feb. 8���While Ignoring the Anti-Japanese feeling in a portion of the American presB Ihe Japanese public la unanimous in demanding that the solution of the San Frnncisco school question must not Involve the labor question. A mutual treaty restricting the immigration of laborers Is contemned here as a onesided concession. sacrificing Japanese honor without any recompense.

Fifty Cunts a lffewT* PERSONALSKETCH Governor Swettenham in Public Eye ALL ARE ALIKE TO HIM Remarkable Career of Public Man Who Has Antagonized the American Republic. New York, Feb. 8���No man ls more completely In the public eye at this moment Ihan Sir James Alexander Swettenham, governor of Jamaica. Sixty-one yearB old, with the physical energy and vigor of a man of 30; six feet tall, muscular, commanding. Imperious, a ruddy face, steel-gray eyeB, keen as a hawk's. There you have Sir James Alexander Swettenham, governor and commander-in-chief of Jamaica and its dependencies. This man haB been a fighter all bis life. He served his apprenticeship to the British colonial civil service ln Ceylon and Cyprus. A raw clerk, be worked quietly when other men were busy with ten* nis racket or idling In the clubs. In Cyprus be followed the same line of action, studying the people, getting near to them, striving to feel with their feelings, think with their thought. He was feeling for a method, striving for a system. And when bis chance came be bad found both. When, eome 14 years ago. he became colonial secretary of the Straits Settlements, with his brother, Sir Frank Athelstane Swettenham, as governor- in-chief, the Straits Settlements were a burden, financially and In every otber sense, to the llrlllsh government Tbe country was undeveloped; Ihe natives were unhappy and discontented; commerce was a negligible quantity, and gloom in the minds of the people and the government alike. Tbe 8wetten- hanis changed all that. Finding that the natives could not be persuaded to work, they determined to |e��ch tltem by another method. Tbey imported labor from the neighboring Hritish stales, set about road making, railway construction, tbe establishment of towns. tbe development of trade, the creation of a popular reliance ln sympathy for British doggedness, determination and capacity to achieve. When he left the Stya|ts Settlements to become governor ot British Guiana the country was being rapidly developed, trade was flourishing, towns were springing up everywhere, the people were beginning to take a pride in action, and the colony not only showed a handsome yearly surplus but made itself unique by contributing, alone among all the colonies of the British empire, to the revenue of the crown. ln British Guiana he met a task worthy of his powers. The negroes, who constitute the great bulk of the population, were Incensed against the planters for importing coolie labor. Tbey were disinclined to comply wltb lhe requirements of the education code; they were determined lo make trouble. Alexander Swettenham put a stop to all lhat. He told Ihem thai, since they declined to work on the sugar plantations, upon which the commerce of the whole colony depended, they must be content to let the coolies work, snd since tbe sugar Industry supported them all, tbey must pay their Bhare of the cost of immigration. He devised a new education code, which hn put in force, and which he compelled them to accept. He condemned them for their Inertia, shamed them with fiery words of scorn for their lack of self-respect, and taught them bow they might make themselves a power in the land. Once, when a negro village was flooded and the villagers thought they should be paid for digglnng the drains to save their village, he leaped from his horse, lashed the bystanders with words of contempt and, seizing a spade, worked for an hour In Ihe trench until it was completed. Tbey took the lesson to heart and did the necessary work to protect their village without delay. He was never a respecter of persons. One day a "big gun" went to government house to argue with him about a certain meaaaure he was engaged in drafting for the consideration of the local legislature. "If you do It that way you will hurt ub," he said. "And who are you that you should not be hurt if the mosses of the people will benefit?" thundered the governor. "Go away, Bir; go away, and ���nark me, I am governor here, and I govern for the people, not for selfish mloyitles!" When the news of the Martinique cataclysm reached B rltish Guiana, the legislature was not sitting, and its members were scattered all over the hundred thousand square miles of tbe colony. Swettenham did not hesitate an Instant. He chartered a steamer ly lag In port, bought the entire cargo of an American flour boat, despatched It With a letter of credit on the colony for (10,000 to the suffering people of Fort de France���and then summoned tbe legislature. There was some protest mi the part of the native members of tbe legislature, but wben he threat ��ned io pay for tbe provisions himself Ihey Abandoned tbelr opposition and the bill was paid. As it protector of the common people Swettenham has bad no equal In the reeorf. of tbe West Indian governorships. He discovered, on his arrival in Brills! Guiana, that the coolie Immigrant j.omen were being made the vie tims i, the planters and the estate overseers. Several of the most prominent planters, leaders ln tbe society of tho colony, were guilty. He warned them by circular and by public utterance. They took po notice. " They had not gauged their man. He promptly took up the case of one of Ihe worst offenders, took away every coolie from the estate under this man's management, and notified the owners and attorneys of the estate that tbe coolies would not be allowed to go back as long as the manager remained ln charge-. The proprietors took the matter into court. The courts upheld the governor and the proprietors appealed to. the colonial office. While the appeal waB pending, a deputation of planters approached the governor and threatened n. make things so bot for him if he did not give way lhat he would be compi'-fted to resign. He heard them oul and then h turned on Them and said'. ���'Gentlemen. I hold my commission from the king. The king ordered me to gn��-d the interests of his subjects here. 1 am the guardian, tn the king's name, of every coolie man and woman hi this against thes epeople. I warned you to desist. Vou have defied me. Now you thraten me. But I'll make you nil an example ye! Go home and try and be men!" The colonial office upheld the action of the governor, declared that be had acted In the Interests of the people. In Jamaica, which he haa governed for three years, Sir Alexander has re- organt-r. -the financial resources of the island, purged tbe local civil service of Idlers, Improved the educational svstem and wakened the people up. When It was proposed to Import Jamaica negroes to work on the Panama canal, he refused point-blank to let a single man go unless the United States government would lodge a cash guar antee on account of each negro sent to Panama, to provide against their being stranded and their families becoming a burden on the Jamaica public.

Sir John I.. Walton, who presumably spoke with full knowledge of the In- tentions of the government, made an important declaration (n a speech at Leeds |ait night forshadowlng the government programme ror a reform of the house of Lords. In his remarks the attorney general Bald that the "grim and serious work" upon which the Liberals were entering "would mean a revolution and Involve two or three dissolutions" He admitted that the bouse of lords was entirely "cuf of barmony with modern democratic Institutions and must go," The government would endeavor to give effect to the win of the people by blllB which Iiie house of lorda would probably throw out, leading lo a "oom- bination of the crown and people to defeat the aristocracy," Attorney General Walton recognised that the struggle would be prolonged and exciting and would mean a complete rearrangement-of th constitutional and political forces, TRANSPACIFIC IMMIGRATION. Necessitates Added Terminal Facilities at Vietoria. Winnipeg.. Feb. 8.���Immigration to Canada from trans-Pacific countries has Increased to such an extent during the past year that the facilities for handling the Immigrants at Victoria have became utterly Inadequate to the amount of traffic bandied. ThiB announcement was made by J. Obed. Smith, commissioner of Immigration, wbo returned last night from a three weeks* sojourn at the coast city. While there Mr. 8mith made arrangements for the consolidation of all the different Immigration offices in one large building, similar to the Winnipeg Immigration ball. Victoria's new immigration hail will be located near tbe outer wharf, where the steamers arrive, so that Immigrants may be easily disembarked. The old Bite waB not large enough for the purposes required and a piece of land ad- Joining has been purchased. Tbe bail will not be as large as tbe Winnipeg building, but will contain medical inspection and detention rooms, also a main hall. Victoria is the first port of landing for immigrants from all parts of the Orient, and the arrivals there during the last year or two have almost doubled. Mr. Smith thinks that the influx of Winnlpeggers to Victoria and other coast points has been the cause of a great appreciation of real estate values, and looks for a wave of prosperity nt the coasr during the coming year. BARNACLES ON SHIP. Wakefield Women Call Bachelors by Hard Names. Boston, Feb. 8.���The following petition from the unmarried women of the town of Wakefield was received by the legislature loday: "We, the unmarried women of tbe town of Wakefield, petition your honorable bodies for a law levying a tax on bachelors, said tax to be graduated as follows: From 20 to 25 years.

And your petitioners further represent that bachlors are a barnacle growth on the ship of society, Impeding its progress and of no earthly use except as pall bearers. We are not advocating this law because we are single���that concerns us least. If you do not believe It, ask us and see." It has not been decided to wblch committee the petition should be referred. theatre last night. In trying to escape the assassin also killed the assistant chief of police and another policeman and wounded tbe manager of the theatre. The terrorist then shot elf and died in a hospital. The sts which he used were dlscoveret be poisoned. M. Alexandrovsky was well kn..w . as chief commissioner of the Red Cross In the field during the war between Russia and Japan. DIVIDED OPINION. French Press Not a Unit on Government Measures. Paris, Feb. 8.���The newspapers of the extreme Socialist-Republicans today hail the cabinet's incoming measure ss being a great reform and as testifying the democracy's confidence in tbe government. Tbe more moderate Republican papers are less enthusiastic. The Republic de Frnncnise thinks lt ls "quite as inequitable as the old royalist system, as It simply shifts ihe privileges formerly enjoyed by the richer to (be poorer classes." The Bclalre believes that the measure will drive French capital abroad and that foreign bankers will be the gainers. The Gaudois charges Finance Minister Calllaux with hypocrisy and lack of courage ln nominally exempting rentes. The royalists' organisation are hostile to the new taxes, fearing thai the ywlll become an Instrument their oppression. i erv that fort EXTENDING FACILITIES C. P. R. Will Shorten Route te the Orient���Survey Partiea Are Already in the Field. Victoria, Feb. 8.���There can be little doubt that the C. P. R. intends to expedite the extension of the E. ft N. line to deep water on the Alberni canal, following out the policy contained In the announcement made some time ago by Sir Thomas Shaughnessy that a port of call for Empress liners would be established on the West coast of Vancouver Island. Already survey parties are In the field. The Instructions Issued to the chief of the staff is to path the work forward ps fast as possible, providing for the extension of the E. ft N. to deep water on Alberni canal. This ls being done ,and Frank Shepherd, the engineer In charge of the party, has already located a route across the Beaufort range, west of Cameron lake. It is more than probable that the route selected will be along the shores of Cameron lake, although an alternative route is availabl by way of Home lake. Along a spur running out from the Beaufort mountains on the east side affords a good opportunity tor making an easy ascent. It Is possible by taking this to get a grade nowhere exceeding IH per cent to where the summit is reached. The descent on the other sld of the range can be made easy by making a circuit away from the wagon road. Deep water can be reached at New Alberni townsite, some miles from the head of ehe canal. It ls reported that the C. P. R.. Intends to begin work on tbe extension of the Une early this summer. At the present time another survey party is working from the Comox valley ln the direction of Alberni to connect with the line from Wellington to deep water on the Alberni canal. The party ts working on the shores of Comox lake. This section of the road offers little difficulty, it ls believed. Th C. P. R. liners, by steaming Into Ihe Alberni canal, would be able to land mall and passengers desiring a quick despatch. ' The railway line would convey them quickly to some point on the east coast of Vancouver Island, presumably Nanaimo, and from there a fast passage by special steamer would shorten the time very materially. The liners would be delayed -some hours in reaching Victoria and Vancouver with the freight and passengers who were not tn any particular hurry, but an advantage would be gamed In time with the malls.

HEAITHMMPLE MM CoMb Sets In Political JUMrs OPINRN OF OUTSIDER Splendid Victory of McBride i\ Healthy Sip of tbe rimes��� Federal Interference Rebuked. Winnipeg, Feb. 8.���J. J. Young, owner of the Calgary Herald, who is in the city on his way Irom the East, in speaking of the result of the British Columbia elections, said: "i regard Premier McBrlde's splendid victory as the healthiest political sign of the times since th edefeat of Sir John Macdonald's government over the Pacific scandals. The lesBon the Con- Bervstive party got at that time it remembered and profited by for nearly 18 years, until It was again turned down by tbe electorate, not for corruption, but for the Incapacity of its leaders to lead. Though the Liberal party in the Dominion has now held office for only ten years, it has arrived at a stage snch as was never in Canadian history* reached by any Conservative administration. "In Alberta and Saskatchewan, by an indecent distribution of patronage and an Ingenious dangling of senatorial and other fat offices, the Liberal machine succeeded tn cajoling the pople of the new provinces Into voting away their heritage, and t he other day, aided by on army of 'workers' and carpet-baggers of the Dnncan Marshall type, It persuaded the electors of Gleichen to reject W. L. Walsh, a gentleman whose oonaplcoous ability was badly needed In the Alberta legislature. "The stifling of local opinion by such methods and the braxen Interference by the Federal machine In provincial affaire ls one Of the oust baneful results of Liberal rale. It is time lt was stopped, and the people of British Columbia on Saturday set a healthy example to the rest of the western provinces by indignantly and unmistakably resenting it." BREAD MADE OF STRAW. * Recipe fer "Hunger Bread" Eaten by Starving Russians. Moscow, Feb. 8.���The but number ot the Agricultural Messenger contains an article on the so-called "hunger bread" of the starving peasantry, and gives directions for its preparation from��� straw. This remarkable recipe runs as follows: Rye, wheat or beaten straw will do, bot the last Is the best where procurable. A few knots of the lower end' of the straw should be cut away, and the straws sorted to eliminate weeds. After this t hey are cat up in lengths Of about halt an Inch and washed In a sieve. The washing should be done In running water, or by continually pouring water over tbe sieve rested on the edge of a well. This is not only to clear away dirt and dnst, but to remove aa tar aa possible the rusty spots on the straw. After the straw has been drained, It must be laid up to dry in the sun and Is then ready for use. Good bread ls made by mixing thin straw flour, half and half, with any other kind of flour and baking tn the ordinary way." Th paper goes on to explain that for children and sick persons straw bread Is unsuitable, but If "made palatable with a little skim milk may bo given even to the sick when It la on- avoidable." SNOWSLIDE IN SANDON. Reported That a Woman Has Been Burled by Avalanche In Silver City. It was reported In Nelson at noon today tbat a serious snowsllde had occurred In the town of Sandon, resulting In the death or a woman whoso name could not be learned.

POLITICAL COMPLICATIONS. Tbe position of the opposition in relation tn ihe prs'sieni political Bltuation Is, to say the least, peculiar.

That he will be discarded and left to hi? own resources Is only to he supposed by those who are unfamiliar with the methods of the ���Rreiit combination of wheels which have made Liberalism a baneful power in thc Dominion during the lasi decade. The province of Hritish Columbia hats: happily been saved from entanglement with these matters by the return of the McBride administration, and it Is to the credit of the country thnt whatever may have been said as to the alliance between the McHrlde government nud lhe Soclalisi members of the bouse there run never lie charged any Compromise between the premier uml bis Liberal opponents. Party lines have been us stroiiKly drawn liy lhe premier and hla followers un by the op- [os-itiuis and there baH beon no attempt al deception by either side. By the premier's return to office lt lias been maile known thai the country stands for the traditions of the Conservative party. While Ihi re sue periods ot transition ami political change, during which times many pei sons are undecided as to where they belons politically, it may be said that Hritish Co luniliia is sotting an example for all Canada in its return to the political traditions which have made the whole Dominion what it is. The policy originated by Sir John A. .Macdonald and which has lieen followed with more or less persistency by every responsible minister since llle dnys of the power of that lamented statesman, is the poi- Icy which is being revived in Hritish Columbia by the McBride ministry, and which promises for this oountry u future which is as yet unanticipated bj any but the most sanguine. Th;. government is now free to pus- sue the traditions of the parly hy which nssiii" ii is called. The significance nf the vote of tlie last election may not be fully realized until the governmenl lakes In hand the task of promoting and exploiting ths. platform oi' its traditional party, Hut thai the governmenl will lull to do lliis is nol lo he supposed. The Wesi is fecund ami in iis nallve sons represents the character of its soil and of Its climate. There is n sturdy Independence that is peculiar to itself and lhat this i.s and will be as manifest in its pollttoal developments as Otherwise win soon become apparent The traditions which have made other provinces called hidebound will not affect the free and Independent spirit of the Pacific Coast an dthe prov Ince of Hritish Columbia will continue tn distinguish itself as ths- originator of measures that will lead In the economic ndvances of the day. Conservatism in Ontario and in Manitoba has shown Itself to be full} abreast of the times and of the advancing sentiment of the public on all (inestlons which affeel public progress and we mny well feel assured that In British Columbia the traditions of the grand old party which has always stood at the front in the march of progress will not be in any sense betrayed. While It would he unwise al this siage to anticipate the measures whicli will be Introduced liy the government nt lhe early session of the house, those wbo know what the Conservative party stands (or will not be at all Inclined to heslitate ln their expectation of pro- Sn nuicii bus been made of ths- move. ment of American citizens toward Canadian territory and so much self- glorification has been Indulged in by ilie Oitawa governmenl on this account ilini li is nm surprising iss have tin- facts Investigated, Tin* Philadelphia Ledger publishes some comparative figures which gis io show that the boast nil success of thc Laurier administration is. after nil. mine a matter of lioast than ol fuel. Tin' Ledger charges that our officers docii.r tin* I'lsun-s. nml adds: "There is high authority inr ihe statement that from 1SU7. when the Canadian movement began, only 02.717 citizens ul lhe United States, of both sexes und all ages, have been officially re- poited as entering tlle Canadian West; and, as many of these departed, it is now estimated that there are in all Canada, wesi of Lake Superior, no more than M.OUii male persons who ivere originally American ciiUens." It is mentioned incidentally by tlte Ledger that during the whole or last year ists.ouii immigrants entered Canada, und when this number is contrasted wiih the 1,1011,71)0 foreigners who sought permanent homes in tlie United Slates the republic has no reason to be jealous. On tins point It cannot he forgotten that Slfton's Immigration figures gave us between 1900 and 1906 a very large addition to the populaiton ol the West. When, however, the census of 1H06 was tuken It was found that the Increase In the population was not so great as tbe figures of Immigration would lead us tn expect. Some 100,000 people reported ns having nrrlved were missing, nr. at nil events, were not ae- cnimieil I'm* in the census. This dis- covory gave color to the theory that the Laurler government had been Issuing lying returns for the purpose of excusing its huge expenditure under ilie head of Immigration. The entire ltiimigr.ilIon system, ii Is very clear, requires Investigation. That it is n neat of robbers there is reason to fear. We had one proof or this in the North Atlantic Trading company "Kraft," un- ilei which some unknown men. whose nnmes cannot be mentioned lest they commit suicide, have been pocketing $n for every Bnropean immigrant re ported as arriving on these shores. This roguery emphasizes the fact that we have In tin' United States an army or politicians, or ol' relatives of politicians, living upon the service and doing nothing in particular for the country. ���W... ������'UT' is arenas-. ..mis slim^- THt ftftMWfy ia*,*.

As this business is nearly all in connection with the Industrial expansion of the oountry it reflects the great activity in trade ami commerce which exists III lhe Dominion. The deposits In banks amounted tp $066,000,000, showing an Increase ol' nearly $100,000.- 000 iii twelve months, Tin' margin i>.' tween nm.. circulation ami capital in Ootober lasi was $10,686,000 agalnsl rather less ihan $7,000,000 in ihe corresponding month of 1906, The total circulation ol nearly f8i.iioii.oo" was the greatest nu record. The chief advantage In publishing these records is in keep vividly before tin- minds oi' Canadians the Immense prngress their country is making, so thai ihey may lay their islinis unsl sli rect their tinterprises with ss due real lzminn ol' th.* opportunities that are now being afforded to grow up jwlth the oountry. Taking mn- population, nut* resources In their preson suite of development, t li.- aggregate wealth of this country, nnd Its fairly otiuable distribution, there does nol seem any gond reason why every man who has his health ami is fairly Industrious Bhould nol achieve the ambition of corraling enough means to make him modestly independent In his declining yenrs. And this without in any way discounting the linigniticeiii promises s.i lie* near future. ���' EDITORIAL COMMENT. The Liberal press Is very much exercised tn know in advance what ls to be the program of the government. Anxious to Jump ai the throat of the legislature on any and every question, Its Impatience is unrestrained. Instead of anticipating wholesome legislative work ami preparing to share In the honorable effort to pass necessary measures, thi' policy pursued by the opposition through tin- last three sessions Is to be continued, Ii is the measure of the men who wonld he statesmen. The benefit concert to he given by the city hand deserves the fullest ap preciatton of the public. The hand has struggled hard with financial em- barrassmentBi bui bus pluckily held lis own. The concert is nol in the nature of an appeal for charity, as the hand proposes tn place an entertainment quite equal tn anything nf Its cuss. There shnulil lis- liberal patron' age. Th'- Trnnto Qlobe says: "Nelson, II. C, has n municipal lighting plant In operation. Municipalities an. slowly learning thai lhe company Is the greater evil in operating public services." ls the Globe as well informed on all other matters which concern the West ? Blessed be tin. man who rirsl Invented work. Not too much nor too little, bul work; and after work blessed be the man who Invented "Nature's sweet restorer���balmy sleep." Tho country seems to feel pretty safe as to what McBride will do, bul ll wns uot quite so sure ns tn what Macdonald would have done. "What will McUride do?" i.s un easy way of throwing dust Into the eyes of the people as to whnt he hns already done.

R. Parkin, late principal of Upper Canada College, was most successful, u large number being present. Mr. J. M. Clark, K. C, pre- aided, having on his right the llonton- lint-governor, nml on his left the gueBt of Ihe evening. The lleiitenanl-governnr. In replying to tho toast of his health, saiil be was di'llglned to he present lo do honor to Dr. 1'nrkiii. whose departure was a distinct loss lo Canada. He proceeded to add that Dr. Parkin was,, though, now able Ut give English people more accurate Information about Canada, and to enlighten their ignorance about us. Dr. Parkin, on rising io speak, was most cordially received. He first referred to the greal changes which had taken placo during the past eighteen years in the minds of the other colonies respecting Canada. In 168*3 he hod made a trip round the world, and two years ago he followed the same route, and he was astonished at the great development of opinion which manifested Itself on his later tour respecting this country. There was a change in the mint) of Canadians, too; there had been a great growth of national spirit, an assurance of a great and prosperous future, whicli nothing short of some appalling national calamity could possibly arrest. It was a great thing to be a resident of such a great country, while he at the same time warned bis hearers that nothing could do Canadians more harm than undue inflation, boastfulness and commercial kite-flying. "Don't gel swelled heads," was the speaker's advice. If foreign countries, If the other colonies, could say of Canadians as the llrltlsh in Hong Kong can say ol the Chinese merchants: "Their w.ord is as good as their bond," it would do more "to promote true Imperialism than all our Cobaltn" Speaking directly on Mr. Chamber Iain's propositions, he laid he though they had been sprung on the people loo suddenly, lhat though he felt sure of iheir ultimate -acceptance, yot he thought Mr. Chamberlain had been too eager in the firet place. Dr. Parkin predicted that the great Imperial problem of the fulure would be South Africa, where the blacks in ������������������������������������+������������������ �������������������������������������������������������������� ���outhernAIbertaOilFields PROVING GOOD!
