RESULT OF AN ACCIDENT.

A Japanese LaDOrer Dies at the County
Hospital.
Wednesday night DR.. G. A. White,
of the County Hospital,
was called to attend sick Japanese on
the Carpenter ranch, about half mile
east of Swiss Station and beyond the
County Hospital. When the doctor ar
rived the Jap was unable to make him.
self understood, and it was decided to
take him to the County Hospital, where
he died shortly after.
After his death several of his country
men were anxious to have him buried
right away, but DR.. Reith, Assistant Su-
perintendent, refused to allow the body
to be buried until an autopsy had been
performed.
In the course of his examination as to
the cause of death the doctor found that
the Jap's skull was fractured over the left
ear. He immediately notified Coroner
Clark, who had the.body moved 10 the
Morgue.
The Jap had been ailing ever since his
arrival at the Carpenter ranch, but Dr.
White had been unable until yesterday
to learn anything that would throw any
light on the history of the mans Illness
1t has been learned, however, that some
ten DAYS ago he met with an accident
down the river.
Sheriff Johnson and Coroner Clark
made a partial Investigation in the mat
ter last night, but they have not yet fully
determined how the deceased had his
skull fractured.
A number oil Japs said that recently
while he was working on Grand Island
he was accidentally struck on the head
with q piece OF wood and sustained his
iuillry in that manner.
sheriff Johnson will further inVesti-
gate the cause of his death to-day.

,ttled districts, Whereas division of the

settled districts, whereas division of the
fund operated in directly different way.
The Attorney General of Manitoba has
now risen to declare that the School Act
of 1890, the cause Of the decree of the
Cabinet, was not passed in antagonism to
Catholics, nor in bigotry or prejudice,
but because the old or division system
had deplorable defects, whereas the new
system was intended to give every child.
Protestant or Catholic, rich or poor, in
town or in country. equal opportunity.
For instance, there were forty or fifty
schools with an average attendance of
nine. These and other districts are
within the provisions of a bill not to
grant aid to schools with less than eight.
So if in the first case three or four
Catholic pupils are set out under the di-
vision system, all the children are pre-
vented from receiving school instruction.
OF course such q condition would dis
tress parents greatly, and so it was and
is, says the Attorney-General, that out
side of few centers the great bulk OF
the Catholic people desired to be let
alone. SO that they might secure the ad-
vantages of the public schools.
One prominent Catholic, Mr.. 0'Dono-
ghue, went ali the way from Winnipeg to
Ottawa to beg the Government not to in
fere with system which he regarded as
best for the children of Catholics and
Protestants alike. To this let us add the
words of Attorney General Sifton: mo
greater harm could be done to the Roman
Catholic population of Manitoba than to
enforce the remedial order and restore
the former conditions"
We have believed all along that the
priests more than the people on one side,
and the bigots and fanatics more than
the parents, in Manitoba, created the dis
turbance and noise in the province over
the school question. A parcel OF priests
and preachers and parcel of bigots and
public question than ten times the num-
Der OF politicians.
The Conservative party in the Domin-
| ion holds with neither side to the contro-
versy on religious grounds, but contends
that religion, separate schools, and divis-
ion of funds do not enter into the issue at
all; that all there is in it is the law of the
Golden Rule; the law of honesty; namely,
the keeping of the pledge Manitoba made
with it's people when the province en-
tered into the confederation. That pledge
was permanent recognition of the school
system then obtaining. The Government
has, it is held, contended for nothing and
decided nothing but this ''stand by your
agreement. That is, the Constitution and
the law"
The response of the Liberals to this is.
of course, that the people in their repre-
sentative capacity have the right to mod
ify or change such conditions. and that
though pledge was given, the majority,
being the governing force, has the right
to change and waive it, and that this has
been done by setting up new and better
school system, one fitting into new con-
ditions, and meeting progress and ex-
perience

SOME SIGNIFICANT FACTS.

At the meeting of the Auti-debris AS
sociation in this city on Tuesday it was
officially reported that the most of the
illegal hydraulic mining now going on is
prosecuted by Cinnamon under leases
from white men. Yet there is not hy-
draulio organ in the State that does not
roar about the right and justice of such
mining and the cruelty of interrupting
it. Not only are whites skulking behind
Chinese blouses to defeat the law, bury
the valley in slickens and fill the naviga-
bic rivers with sand and detritus from
hydraulic mines, but when caught i'll the
act by ''spies" they insist that they are
prosecuted and are objects for pity and
commiseration.
The association resolved, as expressive
of its sense, that brush dams, even when
loaded down with loose stone. are made
quate to restrain the downput of mining
debris. Well, it did not need that reso-
luton to call attention to a patent fact.
We are still waiting with patience for
someone to name a dam of any order
whatever yet constructed that retains the
matter that is most damaging to the nav
igable streams. AS for brush dams, they
must in the very nature of the things be
but makeshifts. Even if they hold until
the reservoirs they create are filled. what
then? Who is under obligation to keep
them intact? What authority is erected
to see to their repair and provide for
their constant resistance of floods and
the eroding influence of passing waters?
Where is it even limited in the literature
OF the hydraulickers' argument that these
brush and twig dams will remain safe
and secure when after few mdAlths the
hydraulic workers are through with
them?
To-day, in front of this city, prepara-
tions are afoot by three local companies
of speculators to lift the slickens, sand
and detritus from the banks and bed of
the gold supposed to be carried by the
mud There is some there, no doubt, but
| it is doubtful if it will be found in guam
titles sufficient TO justify the new vent
ure. But that is the business of the spec
ulators and not ours. The moral we
point is, that whatever gold they may
| find has been brought down through the
influence and works of the hydraulic
miner. and not by reason of the placer
mining of 40 and 80. Whatever the
nioneers may have set in motion never
went far down stream. Whatever did
come down this far is twenty feet down
halow the superincumbent deposits. with
which hydrauIic miners have filled and
are filling the channels.
The mining spectators referred to do
not nropose to go down to the old botto N
of the river. They will take chances
with the sands that are near the surface.

THE ANTI-NUIsANCE ASSOCIATION.

THE EANTI-NUISANCE ASSOCIATIONS.
Citizens In respectable number have
organized an "Anti- Nuisance Associa-
tion'' to effect the abatement of the nui-
sance which lower l. street consti-
tutes to the residents south of l. street In
the Second Ward-that is to say, the
Barbary Coast cuts off that end of town,
practically, from lower business street
Fourth streets.
1t is bitter humiliation for these peo-
pie to have to confess that they can
secure the abatement of the nuisance
only by organizing to that end. Yet 1t Is
true of other things. Many laws are in
effective for years until moral sentiment
gets behind them and public opinion
is actively enlisted for them-then en-
foroement becomes easy.
The Sacramento case is not solitary.
Seattle. Stockton and other cities have
passed through similar troubles, and Los
Angeles is at this moment in the midst
of anguish for the same reason. But the
people always win in these contests. Just
as surely as the sun rises and sets the
lower business streets will not much
longer remain pinched between China
town on the north and the L-street
Bar barry Coast on the south.
The city's most valuable property. to
which she invites all visitors, lies south
OF the "coast," and to approach it along
any one OF three direct streets from ] and
K streets the ''coast" must be crossed.
No one wants to make the portage, day
or night, with wife. mother, daughter or
any modest woman or child. No matter
the quarter still, and to cross it with
lady or stranger, makes one blush for the
city. It is well perhaps that we do not
know just how severely visitors oom-
ment upon the passage to the Art Gal
lery, and to the houses of friends In that
section-it is enough to know that they

It ought not to be difficult task to
effect the change of conditions desired.
Expressed sincere determination by the
authorities can effect il, and now that the
people are stirring in the matter the an
nouncement of that determination should
be made responsive to plain, just and
long delayed petition. L street is high
grade street; business is trying to push
into it, and the way should be cleared
for it.
OF course the question is asked. Where
shall the coast be relocated2" but Is 1t
not enough to trust to the landlords for
that, and not bother ourselves about any
such difficulties? But if this must be
considered, property is not so high on
some borders of the city as on L street;
in other cities they have done as must bs
done here with the ''coast" and per-
mitted it on one side, where property can
be had without injury to homes, and
where it will not cut off al entire
ward. Still, that we hold TO pe
secondary matter. The simple decree
to make is this: The quarter
being disreputable and nuisance,
it muss cease to be such peseesply
If not, the law shall be enforced
if present enaotmenis are unequal te
the need, then new ones should pt
passed and enforced-and they can be.
Let it not be said by any human being
that Sacramento confesses inability tc
handle the disreputable quarter, and
seouester it as the city chooses.

THE MANITOBA TROUBLE IN NEW

IF the Toronto Globe is to be believed,
about seven-tenths of the noise made
