Wright to Tin: Express, I have to state that there was paid to the Rat Portage Lumber Company $1)45.7f> for 109,800 leet ol lumber, and that the cost of taking delivery of the whole from the scow was $107.85, The tenders received were lor only 72,800 feet.

C, November 21, HJ05, The question of locating the tramway and telephone poles was taken up for consideration. It was decided to refer the matter to the Board of Worki to find out the practice prevailing at Vancouver in this regard, and also to cunler with the telephone company thereon. Tenders were opened (or clearing and grading sides ol Second and Fourth streets, west from Lonsdale avenue to Mahon avenue, and laying sidewalks thereon. Tbey were as follows: Second street Quinn & Dressy, $8jo; Robert Blackburn, S460. Fourth street—Quinn & Dressy, $840; Robert Blackburn, S430. llotb contracts were awarded to Mr. Blackburn.

The Chesterfield Street Bndi by-law was reconsidered and finally adopted. Clerk Philips submitted a deed of land from North Vancouver Land and Improvement Company. II was resolved that the whole papers he placed in the hands ol the solicitor for examination and settlement. History repeats itself. The world moves on but nothing new. This week's press dispatches make known the articles of agreement that have been signed between an American wrestler and a Japanese jiu-jitsu man. "Doth men are to 'wrestle' until either one becomes unconcious." No stipulations re gaiiling holds are laid down. Til jap is allowed to use his jiu-jitsu holds to the best advantage; th American to follow whatever mod he sees lit. The latter is at present perfecting himself on new "hold" which means strangulation if he succeeds in placing it on his opponent, Have you ever read in the annals of history anything suggestive ol nunc brutality than this? T lighters were considered barbari Don't Change the Name. Editor ol The Fxpress: Sir,—As one o( the earliest rate payers in the municipality, and ol those who proved their faith in our grand future by not only investing in reality, but by improving our property and bringing our families here, I have been deeply interested in the agitation which has recently taken place, not only to incorporate as a city, but to change the name. I have the most hearty sympathy with every effort put forth to enhance the prosperity of our town, and think it would he most advantageous in every way to incorporate, provided the limits of the borough were not too widely extended, and our interests entrusted to good and trustworthy men, such as 1 am BUtt we could secure. But my main object in troubling you is in respect to the proposed change ol name. In the early days North Vancouver was an outskirt of Vancouver, precisely as South Vancouver is today, and we have shared in the benefits and good times which came to us all, as the terminus ol our great continental railway—the C. P. R., and the marvellous advantages arising from our grantl harbour. Then why should we wish to change the name ? Surely llie name of Vancouver should be good 1 Hough for us, with ihe prefix of North, to indicate our location. We are certainly the offshoot of Vancouver, and I have aluays been of the ipinion that no people should be ishaiiied of their parent's nanie- cspecially when that name is widely known and respected and whose credit is good. The fact that a few letters have been lost or delayed is a very small matter in comparison to the advantages we derive from our present name, and 1, (or one beg most emphatically to protest against a change. Our ratepayers, I hope, will not change the name, but one thing 1 can say, is that so long as I have anything to do with the hotel 1 Conduct il shall always be known as the "Hotel North Vancouver.' Any new name would, to my mind, he absurd. Our bonds have been Change the Name. Fditor o( The Express: Sir,—In view of the fact that part of this municipality is about to incorporate as a city with the greater advantages and also greater responsibilities attendant thereto, 1 think it wise at the present time to draw attention to one question, which is ol most vital importance, and which we should weigh well at the present time, that is the question of a name for the young city. It should be selected with the greatest care. It should he distinctive and hold, well worthy of a great city, which we all unite in believing it will become. The name should not contain more than seven or eight letters, ami sliould not lie like the name of any other city or town in this vicinity. It sliould hear a name essentially its own, so that confusion in mail matter may be avoided. As the name stands al the present time correspondents at a distance, who do not understand tbe condition of things hereabouts, often neglect to write North," only giving Vancouver as the adtlress, thereby causing confusion and delay In the delivery of mail, and oftentimes the loss of the mail matter altogether. Vancouver, South Vancouver, North Vancouver, Vancouver Island am Vancouver, Washington, are a multiplication ol names altogether unnecessary, ofleii causing serious loss to our citizens. I [ere is a case in point to bear out my argument: Some time ago we were doing business with a man iu Tacoina, Washington. on important business, which had a given time to he completed. The letter did not arrive, so one of the members of my family look the train lor Tacoma, and, 011 reaching that place, found the letter had been sent to and returned again from Vancouver, Washington The question is an important one and has two sides, as may readily he seen on perusal of the able letter of Mr. Larson in this issue, who holds that the name Ninth Vancouver should be retained. On the other hand the gist of the argument in favor of a change may be summed up as follows: 1. Chang.' of name is necessary to distinguish between Ihe city and the rural district. 2. To meet the necessities of the postal service, confusion is bound to arise and will increase as the town grows if the name is not changed. 3. To give the place a distin- tive standing on its own merits, which in the near future will be amply sufficient. 4. The change will not prejudice the credit of the council. Financial men look to (acts not names. Besides, the over abundant borrowing ol the city o( Vancouver now going on may prejudice the name rather than help it. 5. The best feature of the name "Durrani" is that it will associate the proposed new city with the inlet -known all over the world long before Vancouver ever existed -which will he the chief factor in making it a prosperous place. the pace. Tin result is a physical and mental wreck, and a broken down body is bequeathed to old age. This is the finale of the treating system. Then there is another class; "That grieve! not ami that never hope, Stulkl and "tunned, brothers tu the Temperance vs Intemperance Hardly a day passes hut some unfortunate person dies of alcho- lism.

Un the oilier hand you find men frequenting taverns because it is the fashion. That's the point. Goodfellowillip and conviviality are the prune factors that induce men lo foregather at the bar, Ilu. liny talk freely to one another, reviewing perhaps ihe business or day's work, indulge in a general gossip, as it were, ami the flowing bowl is passed around.

Of course they are human, and, too, seek comfort and joy in tbe always inviting barroom. They, in time, also lose self respect, because tbey have not the money to pay lor ihe liquor they crave for. Thus it goes. In most cases the frequentors of saloons are men of the world who have experienced enough of real life to be case-hardened, and, like Dyrou, "men and the world so much they hate, they care not when they quit the scene." You can see despair written in their faces. The drink evil must be remedied, say the temperance advocates. Why don't these tipplers give up their habits, become respectable and go to church? Large numbers of them do, especially business men, but they attend only for policy's sake. The others see them, and say to themselves "no thanks, not with us." Why don't the homeless young men join the V. M. C. A.? For sundry reasons, As a rule the members of the Y. M. C. A. are those who were brought up from boyhood within the pale of the church and were taught from their youth up to look upon life from an entirely different standpoint. Strangers who go among them, although ever so welcome, do not care to have the flashlight of enquiry thrown on their past lives, so far as social standing is concerned, for the simple reason it would condemn them in the eyes of religionists, and they would be marked as unreliable, though perfectly honest in their every-day lives. And thus the outcast young men seek more congenial channels to pass away their idle hours, 11 the curse ol strong drink is to be n moved, a counter attraction must take the place of the saloon in society. Whatever it may be, it must be non-sectarian and conducted on broad, tolerant principles. The home must be made attractive. Every man who has a chance at all wants to own a home if he can allord it, not a den ol troubles that perchance make him go to the tavern. Education and a full enjoyment of the home life will practically end intemperance. tt'.i'li.i' k, by railway and bj 11 years, becomi slaves to King Spanish bull-! «ur townsite and sent descriptions boat, each one striving to get hci ^^^^^ 'of our lands ami improvements to fin*, s„ ti„-v nun get in mi iln Alcohol Alter supper The applications for the water- frontage of the street ends was left to the Finance Committee to deal with.
