EPISCOPAL VIEWS.

The Protestant Episcopal church of this
State is taking an active interest in the
ladies' agitation for greater purity of the
press. Petitions are being circulated and
extensively signed in each parish, and the
Bishop of the diocese Right Rev. William
Ford Nichols, has addressed circular
letter of approval and encouragement to
the ladies.
Rev. Hobart Chetwood, a prominent
Episcopalian clergyman and editor of the
Pacific Churchman. when seen by CALL
reporter. observed: "This is most crying
evil. Details of crime are published that
only have the effect of spreading the evil
through the reading of its working.
Il think the respectable portion of the
community should weigh more than the
vicious and degraded-the only ones who
want that kind of reading.
Even if this agitation does not succeed
in thoroughly cleansing our press good
stirring up now and then tends to keep the
matter to the fore. and is likely to be a
gain in progress in the long run.
Il judge from what l read that move
ment of this kind. in which THE CALL
was largely Instrumental, had good effect
ia lessening the evil of the dives. Some
legislation was effected as the result of
public opinion. which was nodded 10 a
great extent by the maSs-meetiDgs that
gathered.
1.-THE ladies were largely in that move
ment, though it was not so distinctively a
wOman's undertaking as this is. l SIN
cerely hope it will have as much success
as the anti-divs agitations have had"
Rev. f. II. Church of st. Luke's Churc b
observed e "The point the ladies aim at is
TO prevent the newspapers from being a
school tor crime. 1t seems certain to me
that a good deal OF crime committed by
boys and young men is distinctly traceable
TO reading papers.
"THE CALL is certainly the most resp pect-
able of our papers. 1t has comparatively y
little to repr0ach itself with.
1T rests with the people to demand
what class of papers shall be supplied To
them. The remedy lies in their own
hands. They can refuse to take those
papers that deal in sensational accounts of

A HEBREW APPROVAL.

Rev. Jacob Voorsanger, rabbi of the
Temple Emanu-El. was eloquent in his
condemnation of minute and detailed
narratives that act like poison upon the
imagn alton and promote the probab bility
of increase of crime and vice."
Il do not say" he stated, "that these
publications do not serve the interests OF
justice, but the gruesome accounts be-
come source of danger to the weak of
mind and the unstable of conscience.
The press Of the clty-the press of all
America-Will some day have to reckon
with the growing sentiment that the mar
ratlve of evil is As dangerous as evil
itself. SensatiOnalsm Is the appetite of
an unhealthy morality; wholesome mental
food is the dish Of the virtuous aud the
mentally strong.

THROUGH METHODIST EYES.

Rev. L. II. Woodward of the First
Methodist Episcopal Church spoke warmly
in favor of the petition. 81 consider it,
be said, well worded and excellent in
every respect. Our church will take hold
of the matter very heartily, and support it
vigorously.
II am pleased especially" continued
Rev. T. II. Woodward. with the publca-
tions respecting the matter in THE CALL.
l am very glad To see THE CALL ts ke hold
of the matter. One knows from the tone
Of the paper that IL may be trusted, to
reach a certain point, and vet stop short at
offending public feeling. 1t fills the place
OF family paper more than any in the
city, and one can detect very distin city the
difference between the motives of THE
CALL and those OF some other of our city
papers taking up this matter.
Not only congregations, but the whole
community is being canvassed by the
ladies. 1t is certainly move in the right
direction and may at least have the effect
of preventing the publication of some oil
the most disgusting and repulsive details
OF crimes.
There is no advantage in publishing
these details. They lower and vtiate
the public taste, and create an appetite for
the very thing the papers DON'T wish to
see.
Newspapers profess to give what the
people like. but 1t is our duty, who are
preachers, to exact from them a liking for
clean and pure things"

LAST HAVEN FOR SEALERS.
Their Capitol to Be Removed to
Yokohama.
SEIZURE OF THE HENRIETTA.
Her Owners Increase the COmplica-
tion by Demanding Damages for
the Illegal Detention.

VICTORIA, B. c., Oct. 2S.-"Wnl Japan
enact regulations similar to those decided
upon by Great Britain and the United
States on the one hand and Great Britain
and Russia on the orherp" is the
question which above all others
is engaging the attention of those inter-
ested in the sealing industry just now.
Twill the hosprable citizens of the
island empire continue to allow the de-
struction of the much-prized provider OF
sealskin-coats in japanese waters-Or
will they not?"
Much depends on how this question is
answered OF course. IL protectorate is
declared in favor OF the japanese seals, ii
means loss to the Victoria sealers. Japan
is their last haven. and If it is
taken from them then they will be
obliged to submit themselves to
the narrow privileges of the new
regulations, learn to use the spear or the
airgun and make closer study of the mi
graiory habits of their game. SO as TO be
able to do a certain amount Of execution
during the open months. which are not
generally looked upon rs part of the 'seal
season."
As yet Japan has taken 40 steps toward
the prohibition or regulation of sealing in
her territorial waters, and as result the
majority of the Victoria sealing feet
will during the next few months
shape their course tor Yokohama or
Hakodate. Several are already fitting
out and Christmas will see half the fleet
under sail. They will in many instances
take their hunters only from this side.
making up the usual complement of men
with japanese sailors and boat pullers.
Whether this Is as bid for popularity with
japanese, or because the Japanese have
proved good seamen in the past, is mat
ter of opinion. Possibly it is both.
Should Japan, as is hoped. continue t.
allow seal hunting the sealing capital will
no doubt be speedily transferred from Vic
torla TO Yokohama.
There the ships will outfit, there dis
charge their valuable cargo. and there the
profits from the industry will be put in cir.
culation.
Although all the feet may not renounce
their allegiance to Victoria, the majority
doubtless will; TO winter here would mean
endless unnecessary expense. annoyance
and loss of valuable time.
1t will be necessary to get to work very
early indeed, for the open season by the
new regulations only lasts until May
month in previous years busy with the
work of prepaI alton, and the first hunting
month of the season.
In the absence OF definite information
concerning japan a number of the schoon-
ers this year will engage Indian hunters
in tho usual way and start TO sea with an
arsenal of spears instead of shotguns-a
return to the days of old.
The Indians all along this coast can still
handle the spear effectively; in fact they
will lose but little by its substitution for
the shotgun.

1T WAS ILLEGAL.
Complications Growing Out of the
Seizure of the Henrietta.

VICTORIA, B. c.. Oct. 28.-A telegram
from Ottawa states that the Charles
Spring estate, owners of the sealing
schooner Henrietta. have made formal
application to the Dominion Government
to press for compensation for the illegal
action of the United States in conveying
the vessel to Sitka, contrary TO the pro-
visions of the mudus vivendi. A. L. Bel
yea, legal representative of the owners,
said to-day:
The schooner was seized by the ork-
town for violating the modus vivendi in
the Bering Sea and taken to Sitka. The
American authorities found they could not
bring home the charge preferred.
''She had never been warned. and the
seizure was therefore illegal. They then
turned her over to the revenue cutter Cor
win, and the charge Of transferring seal
skins within the three marine league limit
was substituted.
were in the wrong. They were acting il
legally in arresting her on one charge and
trying her on another.
Finding they could do nothing to her
they offered to hand the schooner over to
the owners. but the owners would not re-
ceive her. claiming she should be brought
to Victoria, her home port. and handed
over by the American authorities.
The authorities did not feel Inclined to
comply, and offered to deliver her to a
British man-of-war. The captain of the
man-of-war refused to take the schooner.
These are the facts Of the case. There has
been considerable correspondence between
the Canadian and American Governments.
"The latest we have heard is that the
American authorities intend to bring her
down to Victoria. She may be on her way

the Catholics. 1t has issued alarming
circulars as to the aims Of the Catholic
Church in this country, declaring, among z
other things that IL is the intention of the
