A CANADIAN SOLOMON.
Peculiar Decision in Libel Sui
Against the Olympian.

Peculiar Decision in . Libel Suit
Against the Olympian-
The object of Port Captain Rathbone's
visit TO Victoria, Wednesday, was to at
tend the trial of small libel suit against
the steamer Olympian for some damage
done little fishing smack in the harbor
there last October. The owner OF the
smack claimed 800 damages and Captain
Rathbone refused to pay il, hence the lieel.
He said yesterday he was well pleased and
not little amused at the Canadian method
of dispensing justice. The case was tried
before Chief Justice Mathew Bixby, whose
decision was that both boats were respon-
sible-the Olympian for the manner in
which she pulled out from the wharf. and
the smack for crowding in between the
Olympian's bow and the wharf when the
steamer was sprinsing away. He fixed
the damage done the boat at SIS and, both
plaintiff and defendant being responsible
for the accident, he assessed one-half the
amount to each, and the plaintiff, being
the more responsible OF the two, was or
dered to pay the costs.

union deck hands and taken non-union
crew instead. The union men are much
worked up over the matter and have been
trying 10 bring about an understanding
with the captain, having failed to induce
the men to quit. The cause of the trouble

The nrimaries VII be led On Wednes.

1t rs ordered that the primaries not only
choose delegates to the convention, bat
select nominees for aldermen and dele
gates to be submitted to the convention
for ratification.
The offices TO be filed are mayor, cor
poration counsel, city treasurer, city at
torney, nine aldermen and eighteen dele
gates. The call was issued last night by
the Republican city central committee.
Before the meeting of the committee
was held there was 4 consultation between
the central COMMITTEES and delegates from
each of the wards. 10 discuss the basis Of
representation. The committee was repre-
scented by G. II. Hebron, chairman; Peter
Burns, C. y. Evans, J. g. Reisinger. r. J.
McCorry. w. 0DonneIl. Alonzo Hull, w.
Parry Smith, John l.. Kahaley and Ossian
j. Carr, one from each of the nine wards.
The delegates were as follows:
First ward-FFank Morley, B. +. Goldwater,
Herbert W. Taylor.
Second wsrd-I4 p. Bruins, J. D. Taylor, J. Nc
Daniel.
Third ward w. A. Snyder, T. H Dempsey, II.

Eighth ward-c. b. Bsgley, J. F. Pike, J. Z.
Creighton.
Ninth ward-H. Z. ssumer, l. n Hooper, c. s.
Carpenter.
During the discussion several PROPOSE
tons were made. Justice Won Tobel
started ont by suggesting that Ames' vote
should be the basis. Senator Dyer thought
that as the Ninth ward took no part in the
last city election, they had better adopt
the vote for Congressman Wilson, divide
it by sixty, and give each ward six more
votes, which would make a convention of
nineiy-fve.
Major Rinehart suggested three each,
that would be one for every member of the
council, and add one for every fifty votes
cast at the last state election. giving a
total of about 10.
G. B. BagIey thought the larger the con-
vention the better, so as to give thorough
representation.
ossian J. Carr hoped the number would
be large enough To give one delegate to
each of the five precincts of the new ward.
Paul ID Heirry favored giving each ward
an adequate representation according "a
the vote cast az the last election. II was q
premium offered in reward of party zeal.
Frank Morley thought some of the
wards entitled to rather increased repre-
sentation as their population had become
larger. Ames ran ahead of his ticket and
that vote should be taken. The First ward
only wanted representation proportionate
to its vote.
Messrs. Rinehart, MeCiraw and sparline
all favored proportionate delegations anC
Moritx Koch added that Ames' vote might
be taken as representing the full strength
OF the party vote.
On motion of Frank p. Lewis, after som,
further discussion, il was resolved to b,
the sense of the meeting that there should
lie convention of not less than $50 dele
gates.
The meeting then adjourned and the
committee retired 10 make an apportion
ment and draw up the necessary call

is a. pattern and a prophecy of the soli-
of all true life. Eugene Bersier, the
eloquent preacher in Paris, rightly says
that there are two kinds of solitude, an
outward and an inward, a visible and
an invisible. When we are not seen, nor
heard, nor touched by anyone, we say
that we are alone. But it is not always
complete isolation. The fisherman
does not feel alone on the ocean,
though he sees only the silent stars in
the armament and hears only the
sound of the moaning wind and the roll
ing waves. He is thinking Of his wife
and children, who are on shore await
ing his safe return. For them he is
working; their love fills his heart; he
never feels alone.
The watching soldier on his lonely
picket does not feel quite solitary, for
he knows that the honor of his coun-
try's flag is in his care. The work.
woman in her garnet, handling her
diligent needle during the long hours of
a winters evening, does not feel lonely,
for she knows that before daybreak
she will have earned for herself and
her children the next days bread. The
lighthouse keeper in the middle of the
ocean does not feel alone. for he knows
that by his vigilance the light will be
kept brilliant which will warn off thou
sands of ships from danger and minister
to the security of myriads of lives.
Those who love and are loved are never
alone. These are all visible solitudes.
There are also inward solitudes. A
crowd is not company. There are many
whose contact makes no sympathetic
chord to vibrate in our hearts, Their
hands may press ours, but that indif-
ferent clasp touches nothing within our
spirits. There are voices and faces
which do not charm MS even though
they vouchsafe us conventional words
and smiles of courtesy. Faces may
only be as gallery of pictures, and
voices only the hum of many sounds.
There is an important sense which
makes this inward solitude to be
specially felt in the crowded life of a
great city. When William Wordsworth
came to London he was astounded that
people lived close to each other and
scarcely knew the names of their
neighbors. Charles Dickens said that
loneliness was as possible in the streets
of a great city as in the desert Of
Arabia. The Latins have a proverb.
''Magna civitas, magma solitude "a
great city, great solitude). Tence,
even we who live in busy hive Of
workers and sufferers are not denied
the power to find and foster solitude.
do not know more pathetic refec-
ton than this, that we all live, even
as we must surely all die, in very real
and requisite solitude. The experience
of ages has never falsifed the word
spoken nearly three thousand years
ago: ''The heart knoweth it's own BIT
terness, and stranger doth not inter-
meddle with it's joy proverbs xiv, 10Y.
A great saint once said that there is q
sense in which we must serve two mas
ters, for we all live two lives, an out
ward and an inward, an open and q &C.
