The Issues,

We do not believe that any of the
men who compose the two tickets now
up for election to town Offices are inter-
ested either directedly or indirectly In
the ditch company which supplies the
town with water. 1t is well that this
is so as the men elected whoever they
may be will be elected on their merits.
The question Of buying or not buying
the ditch is separate and distinct pro-
position and will be voted on separately
and by taxpayers only as required by
Law, whereas every qualified voter eau
vote for town officers.
Those for and those against the pur-
chase Of the ditch, have been discussing
the matter moreor less during the week,
and Judging by what we hear there
seems to be good deal Of misunder-
standing or MISREPRESENTATION on one
point. namely, the purchase price.
The proposition is to give the council
the right to purchase the ditch at such
price - they think 1t worth. but 10 no
case can Tie price exceed two thousand
dollars.,
The COMMITTEES that was appintsd by
the council some time ago 10 investi-
gate the cost Of construction reported
As their opionion that 5000 should he
the outside price, consequently this
amount Is specified ~ the limit, but it
does not bind the council to pay that
price. II. in its judgment 1t should be
bought for less.
Whoever is elected will be taxpayers
and interested in the public welfare,
and will treat this ditch proposition as
they would their own affairs. We GER
tainlY can trust the men We honor with
our votes to, deal fairly and honestly
with this question and either buy the
ditch at fair and reasonable price or
let 1t alone.
Let the taxpayers vote intelligently
and decide for or against the pro-
position; then the council will know
how to act. 1t is a businessmen poll
cal proposition.

SPANS CRUELTY IN PHILIPPINES

Vancouver, B. c., April 2S.-Mail
| brought by the Empress Of China which
has arrived here from Hong Kong and
Yokohama, states that the people OF the
Orient are turning their attention from
the Far Eastern question to the war be-
tween the United States and Spain.
Generally speaking the press is on the
side of America.
The Japanese Daily Herald declares
that Spanish pride and obstinacy con.
spired to throw away all chance OF
peace.
The news from the PHILIPPINES is less
assuring for Spain.
Despite official statement from Ma
drid that the rebellion has been got I'M
der control, the outbreak does not seem
to have been subdued. General Prima
de Riveras is so disguised with the gov
eminent not carrying out his recon-
mendations for reform that he insisted
upon being relieved.
Spain seems to be resorting to foul tao
tics to kill the rebellion.
At the end of March, Is rebels were
holding meeting in house at Manila.
The news got to the authorities and the
house was surrounded with the result
that upon their refusal to surrender,
about ten so-called insurrectionists were
killed, some forty wounded and the re-
mainder taken prisoners.
They did not hnger long in confine-
ment, being released by death.
The massacre aroused intense iEdigna-
ton,
