S.

Knight, C. W. Webb. Mrs.WATsoK. Mrs.

Pearson. Mr. Wm. Newby has launched npon a novel venture. He has planted some 1500 trees of English Ash which he expects will bring bim handsome returns in tbe course of five years or so.

He expects that the wood of each of these trees will.be worth, for manufacturing purposes an average of $5 per tree. The wood of this ash. though ot rapid growth Is exceedingly hard and is excellent for making things as. fork handles, shovel bandies, ax handles, whif fletrees, waggon poles, rakes, etc. Mr.

Newby's enterprise Is to be commended and we trust his venture prove remunerative and thus lead to the spread of the undertaking. On Tuesday evening of last week Mr. K. II. Cairns delivered before the Ep worth League here a very instructive and interesting address on "The Moral Influence of tbe Press." The Carman Fpworth League held a meeting for the election of its officers for the.

ensuing year. Reports were received from the various officers, all of which showed the condition of Lea gue to be very encouraging. The Asiatic Problem. The Rev. C.

H. JJ. Sutherland of Vancouver has contributed two Articles to ihe Recorder of Victoria which we consider a very fair and forceful presentation of this question. He evidently knows what he is writing about. We reproduce a paragraph or two.

The person who does not examine the actual state of things is likely to pooh pooh such a statement and say Look at the facts. From the data of information available the population of this province is about 195,000. Of this number some 80,000 are Indians, and at a conservative estimate 20,000 are Asiatics. Leaving ont the Indians and Asiatios we have a balance of 145,000 white people. Twenty thousand Asiatics to 145,000 whites is bad enough, but these figures do not represent the true conditions of things.

Of these 145,000 whites, only about oue fourth or about 86,000 are able bodied men, the remainder being women and children. The 20,000 Asiatics are made up almost entirely of ble bodied men who haye Crossed the 6,000 miles of water that they may earn money enough to carry home, to enable them to live in ease dnring the remainder of their lives. When we see this question iu its true light. 86,000 whites to 20,000 Asiatics in the labor market ot this young province, surely the seriousness of the condition of affairs must be felt by even the most thoughtless. But to the masses it is even worse than this, for if the business aud prolepsional men were taken outof tbe white population the number of thos6 doing manual labor would be about evenly divided between the white and the yellow races.

And what is the result? Unskilled white labor is practically driveu out of and to that extent out of Canada. Take any large iudurtry and nearly all tbe common work is done by foreign labor. In the large coal mining industries of this coast, an unskilled white laborer in employment is about as raro a Bight as a horso with horns, while a white boBs followed by a string of Mongolians some hundred yards iu length, is a Bight as common as the black smoke that rolls from the chimney tops. The same is true of the lumbering aud fishing industries. The white laborer cannot compete with the Asiatic The education of the mongolian is in his favor.

When we meet with them we do not compete with savaues but with a nation who have a civilization hoary with age. The science of life with the Chinese masses is how to keep body and soul together at the lowest possible cost. For generations end cen turies and milleuiums these ful people have been drilling their physical systems to do the maximum amount of labor npon tbe minimum amount of food, until to day a white man could no more live npon what lhey live npon, and do bis regular work, than he could monnt through the air with only a pair of crow's wings to fly with. Her Son's Life baved by Chamber Iain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy. "A neighbor ran in with a bottle of Chamberlain'i Colic, Cholera and Diarr hoea Remedy when my son was suffer lng with severe cramps and was given up as beyond hope by my regular phy slcian who stands high in his profession.

After administering three doses of it, my son regained consciousness and recovered entirely within tweuty four hours," says Mrs Mary Hailer. of Mt. Crawford, U. S. A.
