For this reason we can forgive our local contemporary for qualifying our article, "The niggar in the wood-pile," as a squealing abuse of the Free Press. We have observed several exhibitions of bad taste lately on tbe part of our contemporary, amongst them the petty habit of going behind the anonymity of the press to "kick" individuals. These littlo "breaks" may be attributed to mental exhaustion superinduced by over-exhaustion and the shock of being forced into an inglorious retreat from the positive assertion "that the city is today several months in arrears in nearly every branch of municipal service." The halt behind the single item of two months' electric lighting was but a sorry exhibition of valor.

It was a question of the completion by the provincial government of a contract into which they hud already entered with the pre-emptors. 4. An application has been made by the company to the Dominion Government for a grunt of 86,346 acres to compensate for lands alienated by the provincial government to pre* emptors and others either by Crown year on the lines I grant, lease, agreement for sale, or can reasonably be ! any other alienation, up to the date 'when the lands in question passed to the Dominion. The application does not mention that it includes lhe coal rights pertaining to the lands applied for. 5. The Government is now considering the propriety of instituting an inquiry into Ihe claims of the selllers. Mr. Mclnnes asked: 1. Have any applications been made by or on behalf of the Esquimalt and Nanaimo Railway Company or the British I'acilic Railway Company for the usual subsidy of $8,'200 per mile towards railway construction on Vancouver Island? If so, what is thu date of such, application? '2. Did the late Government, in the proposed Supplementary Estimates of last session, or otherwise, malce provision for such susidies? Tlie Minister of Railways and Canals (Mr. Rlair). Yes, application was made by lhe Esquimalt and Nanaimo Railway Company for Ihe usual subsidy of $8,200 per mile towards railway construction on Vancouver Island. The date of application is 24th of February, lSDG. No provision was made in Supplementary Estimates of last session or otherwise this subsidy. Editorial Notes. We invite the attention of our readers to an article in another column of to-day's issue, which we copy from the editorial columns of the Canadian Freeman, reviewing the policy of the Dominion Government upon the Chinese question. The East is beginning to understand the evil of Chinese immigration. We notice a decided change lately in our contemporary, the Wellington Enterprise. It is gratifying to know that it has at last its eyes open to the shortcomings of the coterie of uncapabilities known as tlie Government of British Columbia.

This column is open to the public and ive heaelily incite the citizens to make use of it. foe discussing public goes- tions. The following communication was handed in by our local "Josh Billings" this morning and we give it to our readers in its original form: Editor Mail In the Saturday ishue of the Free Press I notice that (he editor is geting further in the fog and unless the atmosfear should clear up I am afraid we shall lose him altogether perticlar if he should, fall of the Fence, and it is geting rather rickerty for him as he has been astride of it for many years know, It is amusing to hear him Refer to the Fenian Raid of Canada and the suspected burn ing of the Van Cover Coal Co's machine Shop and also the Trip of Nansen to the North Pole what have they got to do with the present Finances of the City how dose he know so much of the Fenian Raid and the burning of the V C C Machine Shop wero he a member of that Friternaty at that time or were a friend of Mc it is very plane to see that he fanceys he dose, of corse he is very knowing in his mind but there is others thinks he dose not know much Why he dose not want to hear of aincent History when the shoe Pinches him and it is plain proof that it dose or he would not squeal so much, but we understand him thorouly, what about the one hundard a month he sold his paper for against us working Men we understand, we do not forgit things as easy as he dose and he will know to his sorrow as we intend to fetch him of lhe Perch if he dose not let up as we are acus- stomed to pilot through the Fog and he has heard from us before, and he knows that considerable of the city revenue has gone with the Clu Clux Clan ring for many years know bnt it will not continue, Al.M'IKNT MaIMK.VOI;.

You remember the Free I'ress said the amount was $15,000, but Mclnnes is only bringing back $10,- 000. There must be something rotten in Denmark,—or the Free Press office.
