NO FUN IN VANCOUVER.
klOndikers Have a Very Dull Time
Waiting for Spring.

Vancouver CB. CO World.
The Western influx has begun and the
seekers after Klondike gold are beginning
to make their psesence felt. Some of them
stay, most go aTay-the place is too slow
and duh, they say. These people are
awaiting the sprinStime when they can
go north and make fortunes. Time hangs
heavily on their hands. What Is the re-
suit? Victoria, with its music halls and
other places Of amusement. hypnotiZes
them or Seattle and San Francisco en-
snare them, and away they so. The only
places they can visit in Vancouver are the
saloons and the haunts of lewd women,
unless the- have mind for prayer meet
ings. The latter are very desirable. but 1t
were utopian to imagine that man, formed
as he is. ana especially adventures after
the glittering riches Of an inhospitable
country, would be satisfied with intellec-
tuai and spiritual enjoyment of that char
acter. What visitors TO the coast just
now want is fun. The question arises.
how are they to get it? 1t seems to US
that ii would have been much better to let
the people give their opinion through
bylaw and their sovereign will might be
accepted as final. If Vancouver wants to
get its fair share or the Klondike trade IL
viii have TO adopt modern ideas and treat
strangers to a dose Of something else be-
side psalms ana lands. We should like to
see the race for the mayoralty run on this
straight Issue so that We may know where
the city really stands. What is the use OF
keeping IL prominently 10 the fore II the
blue laws of Connecticut are to be re-
enacted and the sign blaZoned forth that
innocent amuse nent Is not recognized
here? AS to the proposition which mas
been put forward IL reminds US of the kiss
ing bees OF childhood Grown men have 10
use for milk ard watery affairs OF that
kind. As things now stand. the struggle
to give Vancouver the pre-eminence is an
uphill ficht and enc that does not promise
to be successful

and without regard to politics. We are
reluctant to believe the statement
made by some Democratic newspapers
that President Mckinley intends to use
the bride of patronage and the threat
OF White House vengeance IN order to
carry his point. This is very unlike the
president, and If ii were true il would
be disgraceful on the part Of any man
occupying his office. Mr. Mckinley has
done his entire duty when he sends in
the name of Mr.. McKenna to the senate.
II is not to be presumed that the sem
ate will be any less mindful OF the ex-
a.ted character of the supreme court

counts, nothing Of interest to the public

the court having signifled it's opinion of
the propriety of establishing the read
asked for by the applicant, to wit: From
point at the ford Of the creek near
James Woods to a point about half way
up Catawba mountain, and it appearing
that James r. Woods, the only land owner
through whose land the proposed road
will pass has appeared in court and
waived his right to claim damages, and
that the cost Of constructing said road
will be $50 and the cost of the application,
the board, upon consideration of the or
der, certified down to Them by the said
county court ut it's April term, 1897 de-
cided by a unanimous vote that the sum
of 500 for constructing said road is
proper, and the same be certified to the

has been II sufferer from rheumatism. A
few nights ago she was in such pain that
she was nearly crazy. She sent Mr. Row
land for the doctor, but he had read OF
Chamberlain's Pain Balm and instead of
going for physician he went to the store
and secured II bottle of it. His wife did
not approve of Mr.. Rowland's purchase
at first, but nevertheless applied the
Balm thoroughly and in, an hours time
was able to go to sleep. She now applies
it whenever she feels an ache or pain
and finds that it always gives relief. He
