MILTON MAN BOUND OVER
ON CHARGE OF ASSAULT
ELMER HUBBARD CHARGED
WITH ATTACKING EMPLOY
ER WITH AN Az.

Bound over under 5000 bonds to
the grand jury for an alleged MUIR
derous assault with an axe upon his
employer, Elmer Hubbard, a Milton
woodcutter was brought down this
morning by Constable Dyke and
lodged in the county jail TO await fur
ther action OF the law. The prelim-
mary hearing was held in Milton yes
terday with Deputy District Attorney
Keator appearing for the state.
According to Mr.. Keator, the COM
planning witness, August Klone, had
employed Hubbard to cut wood for
him about II miles from Milton. On
Tuesday Klone went out and asked
his employe to cut the wood into
shorter lengths. This apparently ar
oused resentment In Hubbard, II Is
said. and he told Klone he would do
as he pleased. The latter thereupon
informed him that he could go down
the road" and received a similar re-
tort other words followed, it is said,
which resulted in Hubbard raising
his doubie-bladed axe and struck a
fearful blow at the others head.
Klone lodged and the axe struck him
on the point Of the shoulder glanced
off and cut cash in his forearm to
the bone. Klone retreated after the
blow toward his house and was pur-
sued for distance by his assailant.
He secured his rifle and returned to
drill Hubbard with a bullet" he said,
but later decided to leave the matt
ter with the law and contented him
seuf with ordering the man off the
premises
The doctor who dressed the wound
yesterday testified that had the axe
struck Klone on the head, it would
have killed him instantly.

REFORM IN BRITISH COLUMBIA

There is evidently intent in cer- ,aip quarters to confuse the issue in British Columbia by giving personal turn to the controversy tha. has arisen over the land-grab exposures. Moses Cotsworth, an Eng fish accountant, was assigned to the province in 1908 to assist in the framing of the public service bill. He has remained ever since and has been engaged in various im- portan. activities. AS chairman Of the commission to regrade the Brit ish Columbia civil service he diff fered from the government and has since heen with the opposition. In connection with his activities he has accumulated a vast amount Of material from the provincial archives that bears on the dispos1- ton Or public lands, and it was largely upon data furnished by him that .he Ministerial Union based it's recent allegations Of irregularities m this cOueCtiOn.
 Among the specifications set forth "A the Ministerial unions in dictment was the charge that i'm meuse areas of the choicest land ha been dishonestly taken from the people and the crown, and that nothing has been done to bring the guilty parties to justice. "on the conrrarv," says the Urion report, the attcrney-general declared on the Uoo: of the house that the speculator must have his chance. So hundreds of speculative friends have neeu allowed to siege more land than they can even pay taxes for. And now, by the passing of bill No. 16 on the Sd oi March last, the I!eutenant-60Yeruor in council can postpone the payment of any moneys due or accruing to the crown by any such men and for sucL a time as the government may advise"
 As " were saying, there is an eyiden. intent in certain quarters now to divert public thought in the province from the main issue by personal criticism of Moses Cots worth One high official promises at a convenient time tc have some thing 10 say" about this mans char acter. It will seem to the disin- terestcd and impartial, We believe, that only the records of the pro vince can have anything to say in this case that will be worthyof at ieutiOU.

WEALTH AND LIFE

Montreal News: A Phildelphian, supposed to be a millionaire, has E..Ied himself, leaving a note say ing: T ruined my health piling up my fortune; now I am bankrupt, and there is nothing left for me to live for."r
 Wha' are wealth and position worth, if ones life is wrecked in attaining them? It seems strange that men should rush toward their goal at a pace that dissipates their best faculties, forgetting that re- pose, harmony, peace of mind and r creation are necessary for all really high attainments. Two of the most beautiful as well as philosopht cal lines ever written are these by t5e Greek poet, Euripides:
 Contentment is the root of labor, And labor Is the root of mankind"
 What does the mere money-getter know of real life or of real success? ? What to- him are the finer self-cul- ture, the attainment of personal hap piress, the higher education of life? How can a man who has trained himself only tc grind, to seize and to hold appreciate the sentiments that sway the noblest souls? Wealth cannot buy the things the normal mind yearns for, which the higher manhood longs to attain. Fine qualities cannot be reached by the check-bOok.
