Col. Tocmbs and his assistants
Hodge and Patterson we're called
to Victoria mine last week to
repair and adjust the track scales.
Much hunting is now being
done by our miners, but success
does not seem to crown their eff
forts. Even rabbits are scarce
to hear them tell it.
The coal crusher at No. IL
mine, which has been idle for
some months, is again in opera
tion making nut and slack for
steam purposes from the coal of
that vein.
w. A. Toombs has finished in.
stalllng the new 100 ton scales at
Hecla mine and to say that the
work is first class is only stat
Ing the exact truth. The first
test showed the adjustment to
be perfect.
Weighman Ray, of the Arnold
mine has purchased a new home
from George O. Atkinson, aud
has taken possession this week.
Now the next thing to make him
happy is for the mines to run
full time, and the coal market
open up.
One of the leading operators of
the county, when asked why the
coal business was not better re-
piled that there was too much
coal produced to meet the limit
ed demand, that much coal had
been stocked, and that there had
been no winter weather to cause
its consumption.
J. I. Barnett, formerly city
marshal and liverymau here and
more recently weighmau at the
Royal mine at Madisonville has
gone to sturgis aud will have
charge of the coal fleet of the
West Kentucky Coal Co. Ar
thur Barnett has also gone with
the same company.

couldn't work for some days.
The carelessness of a colored

aately the cause Of a broken arm,
caused by his throwing a large

BULLETIN BUYS
A PIG IN A POKE
TAKES OVER PAPER THAT HAS
BEEN SUSPENDED FOR OVER
TWO MONTHS.

Announcement was made by the
Evening Bulletin last night that it had
purchased the Saturday Record and ex-
poets to continue it as a weekly news
paper AS a matter of fact the Satur-
day Record was suspended two
months ago and the big press was
shipped to the, Two Rivers Tribune
Just what the Bulletin had to buy, eX-
cept perhaps, a handful of former sub
scribers, is not apparent The Satur-
day Record at one time had an excel
lent subscription list but in the past
few years the paper had been allowed
to run down and when it suspended 1t
probably had $50 bonafide subscribers.
AS the paper has been suspended for
two months the subscription list is now
absolutely vaiueless and it will be ne
cessary to make new APPLICATION to the
postoffice department before the paper
can be entered as second class matter.

WARD.

NEW WESTMINSTER, B. c., May
21-Afflicted with the peculiar notion
that he is unable to walk except back
wards, Frederick Mitchell, for the last
four years a miner and prospector
around Atlin, has been brought to this
city for detention at the provincial asy-
lum. where he will be treated.
Michel appears to be sane in every
respect, excepting as to his locomotion.
He discussed intelligently the ques-
tions of the day, is we'll informed on
current events, and would not be taken
for an insane man unless seen walk
ing in his peculiar manner He has cul-
tivated his walk some time and can
travel as fast as an ordinary man
walking in a normal manner, throwing
his head from side to side in order to
see his pathway is clear. He refuses to
believe that he has ever walked in any
other manner and stoutly maintains
that he is perfectly sane and rational

The New Bishop of Washington.

The delegates to the Episcopal conven-
ton of this diocese are to be congratu-
lated upon their promptness In electing a
successor TO the late Bishop Satterlee, and
upon the nature of their selection. The
olocese of Washington is an important de-
nominational field. requiring at its head
man of administrative ability. BREADTH
scholarship and experience. AS the site of
the proposed cathedral it will doubtless in
time become more and more a national
church center, and upon the bishop in
charge will rest a heavy responsibility.
Bishop Brent, whose election in such
short order must be reckoned as a mark
of general esteem, promises we'll in this
connection. He has succeeded abundantly
in the Philippines, where his work was in
large measure constructive. He is famil-
lar with the local feld, having been, in
deed. undoubtedly in the mind OF the late
bishop as his successor. 1t is to be hoped
that so capable man thus enthusiastic-
ally chosen by the delegates to head the
Washington diocese will feel it to be his
duty to respond favorably to the call and
to devote himself to the task of promoting
the spiritual welfare of the National cap
ital.

political game They take the utmost ad-
vantage of 1t regardless Of the welfare OF
the social organization. They are law
abiding" in a double sense; they abide by
the law negatively as we'll as positively.
Mr.. Bennets case is not exceptional.
Many thousands of voters are manufac-
tured every year in this country by the
simple process of marching aliens to the
courthouses and causing them to swear
to statements, beliefs and doctrines which
are absolutely unintelligible TO them.
They have not the slightest conception OF
the issues involved in the political cam
paigns save the great issue of the outs
trying to get in and the ins trying to stay
in.
In the large cities where suffrage exists
the vast majority of these newly made
voters are taught to understand that poll
tics means place. wages, business oppor-
tunity. Thus they obtain their first con-
cept of American government in terms to
prevent absolutely any higher ideal in
their later life. Their sons perhaps may
grow into citizenship with a more whole
some view of the national institutions.
but they remain throughout their life par
tisans of the patronage principle and ut
t'v indifferent to any precept Of public
veal.
1t is to be regretted that Mr.. Bennett s
belated efforts in behalf of a better citi-
zenship did not avail to increase tile APP
preparation for the enforcement of the
laws. This country sorely needs not
merely SITTER naturalization laws. but a
more thorough system of enforcement.
