MURDERED BY INDIANS.


VICTORIA, p. c., Feb. 7.-Seven men,
bers of Scotch-Indian family named Nc
lavish are reported to have been murdered
recently by upper Lizard Indians. There
was an epidemic of scurvy last fall, and
the story was started among the Indians
that the McTavishes had caused it by
witchcraft. council was held, the Nc
Tavishes were condemned, and night at
tack was planned for their destruction.
Setting fire to the McTavish home. the
savages shot their victims as they attempt
ed TO escape the flames, only one of the
family of eight succeeding in reaching the
shelter of the forest. Constable Stewart,
with two men, started out at once to ar
rest the n1urderers, and the trio have not
yet returned. Commissioner Porter, of Tel
egraph creek, has sent large posse to the
scene.

The ruling of Judge Carter in the case of
the discharged policemen against the
Board of Safety seems to go too far. He
is undoubtedly right in holding that po-
licemen cannot be discharged except for
written reasons entered upon the records
of the board, but he is probably wrong
in holding that the cause must be one that
affects the performance of a mans duties
as an officer. and not merely such as af-
fects his character as an individual Sec
ton 81 Of the charter seems to imply that
after written reasons for removal are en-
tered of record trial or hearing shall
follow. for it says:
On conviction of a member of the said
fire or police force for any criminal offense,
or neglect of duty, of violation of rules,
or neglect or disobedience of orders, or
incapacity, or absence without leave, or
conduct Injurious to the public peace or
welfare. or immoral conduct, or conduct
unbecoming an officer. or other breach of
discipline said commissioners shall have
power to punish the offending party by
reprimand, forfeiture, suspension without
pay dismissal
The inclusion Of Immoral conduct" as a
cause for dismissal opens a wide door for
reasons going to affect a mans character
as an Individual 1t would be monstrous
to say that policeman could not be dis
missed for immoral conduct as long as it
did not affect his performance of duty.
But these reasons" whatever they may
be, must be assigned in writing and en-
tered of record prior to dismissal On this
point the discharged men have a good
