DAILY EDITION

SUCH CRITICISM
1S OF NO AVAIL.

Mayor Pattullo’s letter, pub-
lished in this issue of The
News, in reply to ex-Alderman
D. W. Morrissey’s recent at-
tack upon the work of the pres-
ent council demonstrates be-
yond doubt that the writer of
the ridiculous criticism belongs
{to that particular type in mu-
nicipal life described in Alder-
man Dybhavn's letter of yes-
terday as “the street corner
critic.’ The statements niade
by ex-Alderman Morrissey, up-
on which his criticism is based,
were ‘so far from being in ac-
cordance with the facts that his
attack loses any effect it might
have had in moulding public
opinion if he had taken the
trouble to get the faets. One
of the most glaring discrep-
ancies between the critie’s
statements and the actual facts
is that in reference to freezing
of water mains. Ex-Alderman
Morrissey’s estimate of the loss
was $20,000, while the actual
loss was $2,779.30. When an
ex-alderman will go so far be-
yond the facts as Mr. Morris-
sey did in this instance and
then try to shoulder the re-
sponsibility upon a body which
was in no way to blame, his
attacks upon our public men
will not - be taken very seriously.
Taken altogether, his letter was
a mass of rubbish and the mo-
tive in wriling it so evident
that it carried absolutely no
weight,

PROTECTING PUBLIC

 

INTERESTS.

In its issue of yesterday the
Evening Empire published a
letter from the secretary of
the Port Simpson Indian band,
in which the board of director -
of the Prince PRupert fair are
most unjustly criticized, A
copy of that letter was also
sent to The Daily News, but in
view of the fact that no good
could be accomplished by its
publication and a fair just in
its infancy might be done much

barm The News declined to
publish it.
If the Port Simpson band

decides that it cannot afford to
come to the Prince Rupert fair
on the terms that have been
offered, the fair directors offer

no cGbjection and do not ecom-

plain. In addition to the cup
put up for competition, the
directors offered a bonus of

$50 to all Indian bands joining
in the competition. This bonus
was not offered as remunera-
tion for the service of the bands
in playing at the fair.

Any .person with experience
in financing suclf an institution
as an agricultural or industrial
exhibition: under conditions
such as prevail locally will
understand that it would mean
ruin to attempt to engage a
dozen or more Indian bands at
anything like the remuneration
which should be expected.

The News, acting in the best
interests of the fair and the
public generally, declined to
publish the unjustifiable pro-
test.

The Toronto Globe says that

on the Pacific Coast everybody

is talking of Shushanna, the
new Alaskan gold field. One

feels morally certain it got its
title when a hilarious miner

coming home after a night with

the boys tried to pronounce the
name of his wife. Since that
written the name of the
new diggings has been changed

to Chisana, Which would imply
that the aforesaid boozy miner
had a fit of sneezing when he

tried to call Anna,

Mrs. Emmeline Pankhurst
threatens to visit the United
States, to help the women to
acquire suffrage rights in sta-
tes where they have not re-
ceived them. Those who are
desirous of getting good re-
sults ip that direction should
raise a purse to keep her out
of the courtry.:

The inquest into the death
of a Los Angeles pugilist will
fall short of satisfaction if it
fails to disclose what possible
reason the doctors had for op-
erating on the fighter’s head.

Making a reliability run into
Chisana is undoubtedly a sev-
ere trial for even the best hu-
man machine.
