The Santa Fe road has employed quite Il
number Of carpenters during the past few
days, and sent them down the road to put up
houses for the Mcnnonites, so the Common
reslM says. The company is building four
large barracks, or homes upon the cooperative
style, in Harvey, Reno and Scdgwick counties
for the use of these industrious and econom-
zeal people who will make their lands laugh
with great haryests. The \. +. 4 :. +. com
pany have shown great enterprise in getting
these frugal people to settle upon their line OF
road. There are over thirty-tive thousand OF
them yet in southern Russia who want to
come to America and who will be apt TO settle
near those already here. The Gar is trying
to keep them by exempting them from mill
tary duty. but il will be no go. Some OF those
here abandoned very fine homes and expen-
siyc and valued improvements. for which they
received not = cent in order TO come TO free
America where II man can serve God accord
ing 10 his own conscience.

is reported from Salt Lake City. On the 18th

pronounced dead. He was accordingly buried'

The statement has gained circulation that
because the bill containing the revision of the
laws passed the same day with the amended
bankrupt act, the courts would find ii
difficult to deal with the amended law
in connection with the bankrupt law
enacted on the revision. There is, however
no trouble on this account, as the bill for the
revision contains clause providing that il
shall be considered as the first bill passed al
the session TO he regarded as amendments &c

was found that the boy had recovered
from his swoon, and died horrible death
from suffocation. The statement is made
that, except in the matter of deferring
burial until decomposition indicated absolute
death, every means was taken to make sure
that the boy was not alive, and while the case
is very sad one, no blame is attached to any
person concerned.

dence. Her relations were not at all with
| the East, but with our Pacific States. Be-
tween her and Canada proper stretched q
| wild waste of territory eleven hundred
miles broad. As province of Canada, her
power would be nothing. As a semi-lnde-
pendent colony, there were scarcely any
limits to her power of self-government. A
large part of her population were from the
United States. These men declared that IL
any change of government were made, the
true policy would be to seek union with the
great republic. ~ i{Iif
But the Government of Canada was am
bilious and anxious to extend its territory.
To procure the consent of the British
Columbians it promised to build a railway
from the Atlantic to the Pacific, thus bind
ing all the provinces together. This road
was to be commenced within two years,
and completed within ten years. To pur-
chase the consent of Canada to the
Alabama treaty, England promised to help
the Dominion borrow four million pounds
to build this road. The bait was too tempt
ing for British Columbia to refuse. She
accepted it and became Province of the
Dominion on the 1st of July, 1871.
It is always easier to promise than TO
perform. The Canadian Government
found this Pacific Railway charter an enl-
barrassment from the start. In connec-
ton with it occurred the events which
seemed to east dishonor upon the Govern
ment itself and led to its overthrow. The
creation of new ministry followed. The
charter, meanwhile, had been given to Sir
Hugh Allan and his associates. Sir Hugh
went to England, tried to raise money to
build the road, failed, returned home and
surrendered the charter. The railroad
had not been begun. Even the surveys
had not been made for it. although more
than two years had elapsed since
British Columbia came into the Confed-
Grafton. 4
Worse still, it now became certain that
the road could not be finished by 1881.
The new Government was composed of
members who, from the very start, had
opposed the terms on which British Co
lumbia was admitted. They did not be-
lieve that such road ought to be built as
Sir John Macdonald had promised. .Ae-
eordingly they sent to British Columbia
to ask the people to consent to change
in the terms. 1t was to protest against
this change that the great mob was drawn
together. AS we write, the end of the diff
ficulty is not known, but the facts we have
given will enable readers of the news in
the daily papers to understand the origin
of the trouble.
We know now, however, how very
much excited that public must have been.
The whole population of Victoria, the cap
ital, is but five th0usand-about one-haH
the population of the entire Province.
The number of voters is probably not
more than fifteen hundred. If so, the
mob comprised about two-thirds of all the
men in the chief city of British Column
bia, and such an uprising it would be
impossible for government to disregard.
