Miss Chadwick which was too strong a match for any ten a trivial occurrence was magnified into a flagrant breach op the moral law. [n no instance, however, was the information of a character that shouhl find its way to the columns of a respectable newspaper, but, if the ofi'eiis-es had been committed, they could be bcit attended to by the parents of tbe offendeis or the police officers. Tjij. Economist has heard frequently of young girls getting beyond the control of their parents. If this was the case it was manifestly the duty ofthe person who knew so much about it to warn the parents.. We have been told of boys who were dropping into bad, habits; evidently another case for parental authority. Time and again it has beeii hinted that certain young men were guilty of serious crimes. This paper never claimed for its.lfthe functions of police, jury and judge, so it turned a deaf ear to the evil-mluded gossip. Repeatedly have the alleged domestic infidelities of a lecherous - old Impostor beeu forced upon our attention, presumably with the object of���warning husbands to doublelock their doors. It was asserted with due attention to the minutest details that this old rascal was a frequent .visitor at his neighbor's house during the latter's absence ; that he had robbed that same neighbor of the love of his wife ; that in his nocturnal peregrinations he slinked along dark streets with his hat slouched over his eyes conscious'of- having flagrantly violated the commandment which en- s joins us not to covet bur neighbor's wife ; that he had broken up one family in Nelson already, and would soon have another domestic dissolution to his credit. These and more nauseating details of this man's lascivious deeds were supplied, but they had no interest\" tor Tub EcoxoariST, aud we are still in ignorance as to the identity of. this thick-lipped voluptuary. These entertaining stories may or may not have been founded on fact; that is no concern of ours ; but it docs concern us that thc columns of the newspapers are kept clean and free from anything that will suggest an immoral thought or desire. \" creatures to believe that he was a much abused man. llesides it would not be just the kind of literature a circumspect parent would care about placing in thc hands of his cnildren, and it might bring slinme and sorrow to the innocent families of the offenders. NUMBEK^^/. MEB-BE. Again, we do not believe that tho citizens of Nelson aro just as immoral as the Tribune would lead the public to believe. There may be a black sheep here and there, and occasionally a wolf may prowl around and fasten his fangs into one of thc flock. But we have here at least our share of gossips. Furthermore, it so happens that iu this city there are two classes educated in widely different schools. We have citizens who regard\" everything outside of their former narrow environment in the east as being immoral; and we have those wlio were brought up in the less restraining surroundings of the ' Pacific Coast. Conduct that would be regarded as positively shocking and cause a scandal in an Eastern Canadian hamlet, would not be considered harmful or unconventional on' thc Pacific Coast. For this reason new arrivals from the east aic often horrified at occurrences that arc not considered as matters even entitled to passing notice on the coast. Yet it is doubtful if Eastern men and women at heart are any purer than those enjoying the greater social latitude prevailing in the west. Some may suggest that they are not quite so good, and that there is more hypocrisy in their make up. A certain class of men may say that it is the duty of the newspapers to make inquiries as to the truth of such assertions, and, if discovered to be true, follow them up with exposure of the evil-doers. But would that make the transgressor- better. Would he not brazen out his moral delinquencies, and possibly find some weak-minded But to return to the Tribune's war ou women. It is quito conceivable that thc unsophisticated editor of that pa per believed he was rendering faithful service to the public when'he wrote the scurrilous item j;omplained of. If he did so believe, be can never expect to get his reward on this earih. Too many labor under the impression tbat he was not moved by such a benevolent sentiment. For-our part we prefer not to express an opinion. But we d___-r-cSI\"i-lt-_->r__the__lioii(ir_of_the_press' of British Columbia, that a paper published in the city of Nelson should have violated the ethics of respectable journalism. The indecent charge was absolutely without foundation. Newspaper writers should guard against inflicting unnecessary wounds, especially where women are concerned. We arc not saints.

The Rebeccas will hold a nother of their semi-monthly dances next Monday night, at Fraternity Hall. Irwin's orchestra will be in attendance. Irishmen and the descendants of Irishmen in Nelson will celebrate St. ^Patrick's Day with a smoker in Fraternity Hall. The preparations indicate tliat it will be a delightful entertainment.. The proceedings will be enlivened with Irish music by Irwin's orchestra. The Ladies' Guild of. St. Mark's Church, Kaslo, held a successful concert in Eagles' Hall, last Tuesday evening. The programme consisted exclusively of Irish melodies. tern ily Hall, Friday of last week is pronounced by those present to have been one of the most enjoyable social gatherings of the season. The coming summer promises to be a banner year so far as fruit-growing in the vicinity of Nelson is concerned. Already work has been begun on several ranches and a portion of the Bag- ley ranch, at 13-mile point,\"was purchased this week by J. A.

Sinco leaving here, over six years ago, he has travelled all over the European continent and visited many Asiatic ports. He is now in Spokane and likely to turn up in Nelson any day. Geo. W. Hughes is shipping 1200 tons of zinc from the Kaslo sampler. The shipment is consigned to Gas, Kansas. It is understood .-/that Mr. Hughes will follow this shipment by others as soon as the ore is taken out of the. mine, having made a contract by which he can ship steadily to the smelter. The Lucky Jim mine is proving to be a bonanza for its owners. Tlie Slocan Drill reports that ore- hauling from' the mines has become a difficult task, a transfer from sleighs to wagons being necessary. Accordingly the'week's > i'.i it fell away tb 44 tons. The Ottawa sent out a car tb Nelson and the Black Prince one to Trail. W. Koch has given up the^ hauling from the latter mine, his place being taken by Kennedy & \"Cameron.

All over the Lardeau country everything looks good for the coming season. Arrangements are being made, by many companies for the introduction of machinery, and we have every. reason to believe tbat it will be a season of big work and good results! says the Lardeau Mining Review. At Camborne, the Eva people are making arrangements for the installation of a compressor plant. The last clean-up of this property was cloWjto $3,000. The Elwood Tin Workers Co. . are also installing a compressor plant. Work on the sawmill aud development is now being pushed vigorously. The Mammoth group- owners are put- ting up a development fund of HO.OCO with-which to put the property in. shape for economical working. One hundred tons of concentrates have been sacked and will be shipped from the Oyster Group to the Trail smelter. Itis the intention of the owners of this property to double-their mill capacity this spring.- The Triune people will put on 50\" men early-in the season and push work vigorously. While the Silver Cup has shut down at present, it is only for a few weeks, until the danger of snowslidcs is over. At the Net-_. tie L. development work is being pushed by a big crew of men. In a few weeks work will be started on the big tunnel scheme. We understand all thc stock has been taken up, which provides ample capital for the working of ths big proposition. Tlie Mohican crew are driving a long tunnel, which will be completed by the first of June The Lncky Boy is showing tip better than ever, aud the working staff increased as the ground is being opened up. So far an average of a car of ore.a month is being taken out, averaging $150 per ton. It might be said.in connection with this property that only the ore met with in course of development is being taken out. ��� The Horse Shoe is proving a good thing for the lessee, and a good shipment will be made as soon as navigation opens. At Poplar things are brightening up. Barney Crilley is authority for the statement that a 40-stamp mill will be put in for the Lucky Jack aud Swede groups early in the spring, which will make these famous properties big producers. Active development Is planned for the Pluto, Marcus and Gilbert group, Calumet and Heckla, Broken Hill group and numerous others. The Broken Hill Co. have the erection of a mill at Rapid Creek under consideration, which will greatly facilitate the operation of numerous other good properties iu the immediate neighborhood. The bonding of the Winslow by Bruce White is also |going to prove a factor iu the success of the district. A large amount of work has been done on the Silver Plate, which has shown up well, during the winter. Over the divide, the Consolidated Co., according to latest advices, are preparing to go to work with a large force on the Old Gold, Primrose and Treadwell.

The whole western country appears to be enjoying the exceptional season of beautiful weather. From the territories it is reported .that the farmers are making preparations for the work that is usually done a month later. Sir Wilfrid Laurier has been forced to moderate his autonomy bill so far as it has any bearing on the establishment of Separate schools in the new Provinces. The resignation 'of Clifford' Sifton seems to have had beneficial results. The Vernon News is one of the most enterprising weekly newspap ers published in the interior. Tne News h^s published several special editions in the past, and now proposes to print a 6o-page finely il lllstrated number tor the Dominion Fair. \" Some idea of the increasing interest in fruitgrowing can be formed from the reports of the nursery men that their sales this season are double what they.were this time 'last year. Every man who owns a lot seems desirous of raising his own fruit, and when the trees already set out bear their fruit, Nelson and vicinity will possess an additional attraction for tourists. The McBride Government is fulfilling its promises to the electorate. So far a great deal in - the way of, much needed legislation has beeu accomplished, and the balance of the session will probably -be:taken-up-withstill-more--import-- ant matters. With regard to railway questions, the Premier has announced that it is the. intention of the Government to move as rapidly . as is consistent with due protection of the interests of the Province. In this respect he is to be commended. Railways.are needed to develop the resources of the Province, but it would be better to be even a little .behind the times in this regard than to mortgage the whole future of British Columbia\" merely for ��� a temporary gain. .

Manager It is really amusing to watch the antics ofthe opposition press in this province.

Last week Houston gave a strik ing example of the methods he pursues. For two weeks he had worked against the smelter eight- hour bill, and even half an hour before the vole came he was b eard to say that he would not support it. But, unfortunately, the Premier, in joining in the.debate on the measure, adopted the same attitude. This was too much for John Houston. \"Be on tbe same side of such a debatable question as Hon.

It becomes, therefore, an interesting question as to whether' Mr. Templeman will receive what is unquestionably his due as the member of the Cabinet representing Western Canada. Is he again to be passed over ? to be compelled tp see others, ���perhaps,- outside the Cabinet, put in possession of the office that ��houId be his ? The excuses of- fe icd for such treatment on past occasions, will not suffice now to reconcile the people of Western Canada to further, refusal to recognize their claims, even if Mr. Templeman is willing to turn the other cheek to tbe smiter. We admit that on many grounds it is desirable that the Minister of the Interior should be a member of the House of Commons. But that should not be an obstacle to Mr. Templeman's appointment. It. will be easy to get him a seat for one of the cou- stituences in British Columbia. Within a few days we shall fee what is the treatment that is to be given Western Canada on this occasion.���News-Advertiser. Corner Mill and 'csephine Sts.

She has no reason for - being jealous, she knows -it, but lt ls a habit, and she likes to keep her hand at it. \"She Is fond of calling on sick people, and. as she has had every mortal dts- ease or Indisposition you care to name, she gives the people whom she visits her own experience of their disease, and they have to listen to all the minute details of the sufferings she had lo go through. She hopes that you will, get better. \"Meanwhile she tells you of all the people she knows who have died of the disease with which you are afflicted, but reassures you by stating that some people have been known to recover. \"She Is the town-citer of bad news.
