THE RIGHT TO STRIKE.
Noteworthy Labor Decision by 9
British Columbia Judqe.

The supreme court of British Colum-
bia. sitting at Vancouver has handed
down decision in an appeal case that
is Of great interest. The plaintiff In
the case was stonecutter from Eng.
land, who applied for membership In
the union and obtained certain work at
the trade as test Of competency. He
objected to the test on the ground that
the work was different from what he
was accustomed to. and he was re-
fused admission TO the union. The
men working with him notified the EN-
ployer that they would not work with
him, thus forcing his discharge to
avert a strike. The stonecutter sued
the union, through its secretary, for
damages for loss Of employment and
was successful in the lower court On
ton was upheld and the action dis,
missed. The chief Justices opinion,
both in its spirit and decisions, has
such bearing upon recent judicial ut
terances and judgments IN notorious
American labor cases that 1t is worthy
Of note
In no ease is there greater obliga-
ton on the court To be alert in main
talning the rights Of both parties than
In that originating in trade or labor
disputes, In none Is 1t more difficult for
the court to satisfy all persons that 1t
has lived up to the time honored ira
dition that It holds an even scale.
1t cannot be disputed that body OF
workmen may. for the protection OF
their trade and the promotion Of their
interests, associate themselves togeth-
er and prescribe conditions for the ad-
mission or rejection OF others to the
association, and, II any condition APP
pears To work hardship by resulting
IN the rejection Of any applicant, there
Is no remedy by which that body can
be forced to associate themselves with
the applicant.
Similarly any body OF men may de-
eide for themselves the conditions I'M
der which they viii agree to render
service. 10 whom and with whom, and
this Involves the proceeding that they
may quit an employers service. hav-

Two organizations are in progress of
formation in this city having as their
avowed aim, government by the masses,
instead OF government by the classes.
Each organization is praiseworthy and
is working toward the same goal. The
difference between them is of method.
The direct legislation league believes in
centering on one thing. Its members
will admit that other reforms in gov.
ernnment are needed but they contend
that too many irons in the fire scatters
the effectiveness of organization and
confuses he public mind. They say
that ii direct legislation is once made
a part of the original law of the state
that it can be invoked to bring the other
reforms about. They argue further that
no party lines need he drawn and no
man will be asked to sever his party
connections sincepledges will be asked
for direct legislation from candidates of
both parties alike. They believe that

A Doctor of the ola scho16l.

Father was a doctor. genuine, hemp sewed, corn fed country physician of the gray haired class of our oldest school. He neither wore kid gloves nor practiced in them. His patients either had to get well or die, with no loiter- ing on the way. He felt the pulse with one hand and poured castor oil with the other.
 Put your trust in castor" waS fa- ther's creed, and he lived 1t and ad- ministered it
 Castor oil was both bis diagnoser and his curer. He gave 1t any way. If it worked, well and good; if not, he used some other lubricant or else adminis- tered liberal doses of more energetic connections. There were no milk and water mixtures in his medicine case.
 But castor oil first; castor oil, the dis ease seeking chaser of everything with in its reach, and by the great table spoon 1t reached about everything ''Gumption," by N. O. Bowler, IT.

when Fork. re.rea e...

In the early days of the last century, when Illuminating gas was first used in London, timorous people talked of the dangers of sufrocation and of explo- sions to which the gas. which was still imperfectly purified, exposed the citi- zens. Scientists confirmed these asser- uons, and the first gasometers erected in London by Samuel Clegg so terrified the people that no workman would ven- ture to light the gas jets which had been placed on Westminster bridge. But Clegg soon overcame this difficulty by lighting torch and applying 1t to the burners with his own hands. On another occasion before committee of the Royal society Of London he bored hole in the gss holder and put light ed candle to it, to the great alarm of the spectators, but without causing the slightest accident. Gradually the eyes even of the most pretudiced were open cd to the truth.

A story of False impra.onment.

Story of False imprfsonment.
 One of The strangest of stories of false Imprisonment comes from France. A woman was sentenced to tmprison- ment for life for having caused the death of her husband and brother. The three had lived together at Malaunay, near Rouen. in cottage, the lower part of which was used as a wine shop. When the woman was sent to prison other people took the wine shop, but the new tenants suffered, the man from fainting fits, his wife from nau- sea, from which she died. Another couple tried their fortune, but they. too. were overcome by the "spell of the accursed place." as they thought it. They were subject to fainting and loss of memory. At last q scientific exam ination of the premises was made. Then it was found ttfat adjoining the inn was lime kiln. In the wall divid- ing it from the cottage were many is- sures, so that whenever lime was burnt monoxide ,of carbon escaped into the inn This was the secret of the deaths for which the woman was suffering. She was brought out of prison after six years of servitude.

Sud denly, when in the middle of the lake, I determined to prove to these simple folk the folly of their belief. So lifted up my voice in q wild cry that woke every echo of the hills. The Indians were filled with consternation- They uttered no word, but. straining every nerve, rowed on in frowning silence. They reached the shore in safety, and I had riumphed. But the leader of the Indians looked on me in concern.
