m__ VOLUME 1 NEW WMTMIHBTER, B. 0., THURSDAY EVENING, SEPTEMBER 16, 1686. NUMBER « iJotBltttigk^himbi-tn Tkur.ilay Evening, Sept. I«. 188*. Parties just arrived irom Alaska pronounce the eviction of Ohinese from Douglas island a most heartless and brutal outrage. Its details were savage and ruthless to the last degree. It is even intimated that the poor victims were loaded on the schooners with the expectation and hope, that: thejc would never reach their destination, alive,, and the charge does not seem' unreasonable when it is known that the boats were not properly provisioned for the I Voyage < and < that1 when they reached Wrangel their passengers, who for eight days had been 'kept on short rations,:were in a half-starved and famished condition. The story of j the passage; of eight .days is most pitiful. , There was not space for all to lie .down, aiid in addition to the pangs,.of hunger, thirst and exposure ' Were tlie sufferings of bruised bodies, and limbs swollen in instances to | double their natural size from standing painfully on • the crowded decks. A more- wretched body of men than the crowd landed, at Wrangel can not be imagined. No usage short of burning at the stake could have exceeded in cruelty that inflicted upon these people by men who bosst -thut' their, conduct was "attended by 'no act of violence." If our government does not proceed at once against these outlaws, for such they are, and avenge this gross and cruel proceeding iit will merit the contempt of the civilised world. —Oregonian. I It now begins to look as though Australia would come forward as a great silver producer. For the last ten years She has worked some silver lodes :in a small way, and from 1876 to 1884 her exports of that metal Have averaged fiom ttbout 430,000 to $100,000. Within the; last two years American reduction processes have been introduced, and in 1885 the export jumped up to $283,665. This was mostly the product of a single mine in the New England district of New South Wales,.but other districts are now being discovered . which promise, large returns In the Barrier Range, near the boundary between New South Wales and South Australia, an: extensive silver-bearing region has been partly prospected and worked with promising results. It is believed that the deposits range far into tha desert country of South Australia, and no opinion can yet be formed of their ultimate value. There are thousands of square miles of little known territory in that direction, much of which' resembles the barren silver-bearing region of Nevada, The government geologist, and several other experts who have made some Investigations, express the opinion that the district -will rival the argentiferous regions of the' Great American Basin ill tlie. extent and, richness of its lodes. The country is at present difficult bf ncMss,: Wood and water are scarce ond mining and reduction expensive, biit a railroad is projected to obviate these difficulties.—& F. DtiUetiii. Missionaries have the reputation of being heroic folk and occasion* ally circumstances are presented which abundantly, sustain, ib In the Sandwich group is one island— Molokia—where the victims of leprosy—that frightful scourge of the Sandwich islands — are gathered,1 There they are kept separate from all civilized and healthy humanity. There the lepers rot and die, and there thoy are buried by their dying companions who in turn are burled by newer victims. It is the island of living death—the ghastliest spot on the whole globe. There foi- years has Father Damen been a willing prisoner, having been induced' by his holy zeal to place himself among that laznr horde to minister spiritual necessities, to soothe the dying and to pray for the dead. For a long time, tbddgh out off froni the outward world, Father Damen continued in good health,'though alone/ among tho dead. But the stroke has fallen nt last. In a letter written recently he say's: "It is impossible for me to go any more to Honolulu on account of the leprosy breaking out on me. ; the microbe's have finally settled in my left leg and ear, and one eyebrow begins to fall. I expect soon to have iny faco disfigured. Haviiu- no doubt myself of the true character of the disease, I feel calm, resigned, and happier among my people Almighty Ood knows1 what is best for my snnc- tificntion, and With this conviction I say daily a good fiat voluntas tuo."

This man was tried for murder, found guilty, and sentenced to death. If lie had been a poor man, undoubtedly he would lono; ago havo paid the ponalty imposed by law; but he happened to lmvo some money, and the lawyers knew it, and at once a determined ell'ort was made to escapo from tho sentence. After exhausting all legnl resources of tho province the case was earned to Ottawa, where it wos so successfully handled by prisoner's counsel that Sproule seemed on the very point of escape. Judge Henry ordered that he be brought to Ottawa and discharged. The or. der wtts resisted, however, by tlie provincial authorities, and on Monday, after another long and expensive hearing, the supreme court of Canada decided that Judgo Henry was mistaken, and his order was discharged. Sproule is now subject to the order of tho first court, but may (if he has money enough) appeal to the privy council of Great Britain. We are told that his money has been exhausted, and unless his friends come up he will hang. There seems to be no doubt anywhere that he had a fair trial aud is guilty: the only questions the courts have been considering were mere technicalities. Dodging tbe Point. Not long ago an article appeared iu this paper intended to correct some erroneous impressions that might bo produced by misleading statements that liave oppeared in the Victoria Colonist with reference, to Fraser River and the city of New Westminster. It may be remembered that the Colonist made such references to the closing of Fraser River by ice as were intended to leave the impression that ice formed a serious obstacle to vessels reaching this city in Winter. We pointed out that this is not the wise— that although there is float ice iu the river usually for a week or two each winter, it would presont no barrier at all to steamers having thc simplest kind of protection against it. We drew attention also to the fact that a city on a river has very many substantial advantages over other cities, and that, as a rule, all great cities were on rivers or very near them, a fact that must be patent to any person who possesses a geography. Tliere was nothing said - that could be construed into hostility towards Victoria, and nothing at all about rivalry. In its issue of Tuesday the Colonist pretends to reply to that article; but the so-called reply is not a reply at .all. Carefully avoiding the points at issue, our cotemporary indulges iu half a column of ridicule in which ho manages totally to misrepresent the Columbian's attitude. Ridicule is sometimes an effective weapon if employed by skillful hands; but in the hunds of our Victoria cotemporary it affords a sure means of detecting the narrow sectionalism which clings to all his thoughts, and his inability to state any facts or arguments that will meet fairly the position taken hy this journal. It would be neither wise nor profitable to reply to our cotemporary's article. We shall only say that his reference to Port land as an instance of a river city badly hampered by obstructions to navigation is unfortunate. Portland is about 80 miles up the river, whereas New Westminster is only 15 miles from saltwater, Portland's river has a very dangerous Inr at its mouth, and there is no natural or artificial protection at the entrance, which is exposed to the full sweep of the wnve3 of tlie Pacific Ocean. The obstructions at the mouth of Fraser River are such as could bo removed by tho expenditure of a very moderate sum of monoy, and Vancouver Island is placed directly opposite, admirably fulfilling the purpose of a breakwater, for whioh nature seems to have raised it up, But in spite of all these serious drawbacks on the Columbia River, Portland is the largest city on the Pacific nortii of Sau Francisco, and is a city of great commercial importance. Its white population now is about 20,000, which is moro than double that of Victoria, and its wharves are constantly lined with ships from all parts of tho world. If Portland, with disadvantages of which we know nothing, hus been able to ac cumulate such a population and such commerce, the Colonist cannot successfully infer from its history that New Westminstor can never become "a great commercial city." If this city aimed to liecome as big and ni rich and control as much business ob the city of Portland, it would be animated hy no mean ambition; but its magnificent situation and unrivalled natural advantages prompt it to look oven higher than this. If the Colonist does not rejoice in * pronpeot equally inspiring, we are sorry the fates are inexorable. Auction Sale! UNDER INSTRUCTIONS,**!'°M ™> O.

At the closo of this service, the clerical and lay delegates to the synod remained, when the form of service for the opening of synod was recited by the bishop, at the termination of which the ven. archdeacon and Rev. Mr, Clinton, committee on credentials, returned their reports, on receipt of which tho synod was adjourned by the bishop, to meet again forthwith for despatch of business. The meeting is Btill in session. This evening there will be choral evensong at Holy Trinity at 8 o'clock, at which all will be .welcome.

He effected his escape by first prying up a board in the floor of hia cell,'and, passing under the building, gained access to the inner yard. Front here,there wu little difficulty in reaching the outer yard, and the street was gained by scaling the main wall with the assistance ef a loose board, and then Ah Fun was "as free tn a bird upon the wing." The police have been searching for him to-day, but he no doubt had shaken the dust of the oity from his feet befon daylight this morning. The usefulness of tbe old jail even as a lock-up has gone, and offenders should not be tempted to. evade the law hy being placed in it The rickety old building is not capable of keeping anyone ont, much' less keeping prisoners in, and it la said tramps aud Indians crawl in there for shelter in bad weather.

Editor Columbian: Mr. Curtis' article on the above case in your weekly issue., of Sept 4 seems purposely do- signed to blind the eyes of the public and shield the interested wrong-doers. Mr.- C. professes tb be anxious that the whole truth concerning the ''so-called poisoning case" should bo known, and writes along 'article purporting, to tell 11 Uie whole truth and nothing but the truth,"and yet omitsavery eaacntial part. He informs us that Mr. Reed gavo a tablespoonful (about two teaspooufuls) as ordered; Mrs. Reed had no sooner taken It than she went into oonvulsious, etc., doubtless the immediate result of the sudden, violent, irritating shook to the pneuinogaatric nerve, and through it to the whole nervous system, especially the brain. A tablespoonful of what? The public have a right to know. In such a melancholy and important case, why not give the prescription ? But, in Its stead, Mr. C. says, " The reader gets the truth when he is told that tike dose was a sharp, sour, bitter one." Ko, Mr. Curtis, the reader can not thus get the truth, nor any part of the required truth, as there are many mixtures with a sharp, sour, bitter taste. The reader wants to know the drug prescribed, its nature as a therapeutic agent, its quality, its quantity, and ite adaptation to remove the disease for whioh it was given, before he can get at the first elements re-, quired to form an intelligent judgment. Mr. C. then goes on to say: "X want to state right hero that the bottle contained nothing poisonous; consequently, Mrs. Reed could not have been poisoned." And then he immediately informs us that one of the principal elements in the prescription was hydrobromic acid, in the " full doss allowed," and that in a far too concentrated form. Mr. C. has assured us that the bottle contained nothing poi- sonoue,and yet I affirm that hydrobromic acid, one of the main ingredients it contained, is highly poisonous, seriously af- footing the nervous system, specially and painfully affecting the brain iu tbe region of the temples, and ia very irritating to the lungs. Brando acid not only extinguishes flame, but io excess will extinguish life. Bromine derives its name fiom its peculiar, penetrating, suffocating and excessively offensive odor. It specially affects the brain and the lungs, two of the main citadels of animal life, while chlorine specially affects the throat, and iodine the nose, Mr. C. further adds: "I have shown the prescription to several doctors and druggists, all of whom affirm that the mixture contains no poison." The public would like to know who the several doctors aud druggists are. NAME THEM. How they could affirm that the mixture "contains no poison," I am perfectly at a loss to know. They may just as well and just as truth* fully assert tliat a "mixture" containing strychnine contains no poison. Either ignorance or alcohol, or both, must have been at tho bottom of such a statement. The faot is, that bromine, like many other articles In the Materia Medica, nover ought to be used as a medicine; for it cannot be used by the vital powers; it is inimical to healthy cell-formation, as a thorn-prick in tho finger Is inimical to sensitive pleasure. In conclusion, I must say that the above case iB a very painful one, indeed, and might have been expected. It ought to lead to a very thorough and Impartial examination by competent and impartial investigators. The recklessness of human life is shocking, where the very opposite ought to be the case. I have long been so painfully impressed with tho necessity of medical reform in New Westminster that I now propose, to write, a few articles on the subjeot In the Interest of the people, and publish them in the Columbian or some othor publia journal. All those persons who would like me to do so, can let me know by postal card. Should I do so, I shall.1 disregard from the beginning any antagonist wbo neglects the principles of a gentleman iu the discussion. Yours respectfully, Wm. Kent, M.D, [Whatever opinion Dr. Kent may hold respecting the professional standing of tlie physiciaus of this oity, wo must decline tho articles on this snbject he proposes to publish.—Ed,] ' Gilbert Laird, St. Margaret's Hope, Orkney, Scotland, writes: "I am re quested by several friends to order anothor parcel of Dr. Thomas' Eolectric Oil, '1 he last lot I got from vou having been tested in several cases of rheumatism, has given relief when doctor's medicines have failed to have any effect.

It has been found to bo so well adapted for statuary and monuments, that companies have been for some time established at Bridgeport, Conn., Detroit, Mich,, Des Moines, Iowa, and St, Thomas, Canada, who are making monuments of all kinds and styles. From experiments made hy these companies, it has been found that the material will stand exposure for an indefinite period—it iB practically indestructible. White Bronze being non- corrosive and unchangeable, it is stated to be equal to gold, silver or platinum, and mtpcrior to copper or antique bronze, which throws off a verdigris. The monuments are cast from refined zinc, and are given their sparkling appearance by the sand blast, sand licing blown against tho work under a high pressure of steam, whioh cuts the surface, but doea not ad- hero to it. A thin film of oxide which forms on this bronze is indistructible by the elements; It cannot be dissolved by water, and air cannot penetrate It, although the film is bo thin as tn be immeasurable. No corrosion, it is affirmed, can takejilace.—Bonton Journal of Commerce, Chas. J. Robson, New Westminster, is agent for the White Bronze Monument*) in British Columbia.

Thanks to tbe resolute manner in which the Company hss de* ciined to embark upon extravagant methods of procuring business, the working expenses of the company bear to the total income the very small ratio of between 17 and 18 per eent. A point attesting the soundness of the finances of the Company is the fact that the interest income is sufficient to pay the'death claims--which in a company of the age of thc Confederation Life is something to be proud of.

Davitt Bays: "Tho argumeuti advanced in the pamphlet are utterly misleading, and tend to create a misconception in the minds of the American public as to the exact present state of affairs in Ireland, He draws marked attention to the great doprcci ation that has taken place in the last few years in prices of all Irish agricultural .products, and denies that Irish farmers enjoy greater advantages of tenure than others do. Ho sayB facts and figures which Parnell will present when he introduces his bill into the house of commons on Friday next will completely refute misrepresentations made ih the ' pamphlet and establish the truth of his charges against tho entire Irish landlord system.

There-was a large attendance. McCarthy had for his subject "The Irish cause of to-day." He said tliat tlio causo of Ireland had of late made remarkable strides. Parnell had opened up an entirely now chapter in the history of the Irish struggle for legislative independence (cheers), and success was within sight. It wns hardly a question of years but rather a question of months. The most eloquent of English orators, the most gifted of English statesmen, Gladstone, was now tho leader of the home rule movement, and behind hiin were the great English democratic party. Only some strange, unparulled, fatal mistake by the Irish party could prevent success, and, please Heaven, they would uot mako such mistake. Irishmen, ho concluded, did not ask to dissolve partnership with Great Britain, they only insisted ou tlieir right of governing themselves. Irishmen wero tired and sick of being enemies of England, especially as English friends hod so suddonly and nobly risen to do their duty towards Ireland. (Applause). He said he waa not going to America on a political mission. He had heard however that the educated Americans did not believe in home rule and he would try and find them out. Ho thought on his return he would bo able to givo a list of them, He hoped to return in time to tako part in the great struggle which would begin next session of parliament nnd which would lead to tho complete and consummate success of the Irish cause. (Applause.) Thia was thu cause of civilization, of enlightened progress and humanity and under God's providence it could not possibly fail to meet with succoab. At the closo of McCarthy's speech he was loudly applauded.
