The editorial writer of the Kdmonlon Bulletin continues to urge reduction of freight rales to Vancouver and Prince Hupert in order to make them equal to the rale to Fort William. Prince Hupert is seldom otnilled now from any discussion of the grain shipping question although so far not -a bushel of grain has been shipped this way. Dominion Departments Far Out Of pate. A 'map came to the Daily News office yesterday addressed to the Optimist and another to the Daijy News. As the Optimist has not been published for ten or Iwelve years it seems about lime the. Dominion department of mines wns liriiiRiiiR its mail ing list up to date. No commercial firm could' afford to send out, mail matter to old dead addresses, something which is being done almost continuously by several of the Dominion Government departments. Small Boy Influenced Canadian Senate. Senator Crowe says it was the small boy tactics of the Attorney fieneral of H.C. that caused the Senate lu' tnrn down several bills passed by the House of Commons at Ottawa. The senator's reasoning is not very good. If the Senate was influenced in its decision by a small boy it does not speak we.ll for its mental capacity or its. judgment. The difficulty is that the Senate does not represent public opinion in Canada and like some of (he judges, it lakes advantage of the permanency of its position fo give vent to its private prejudices. In the early days of Ihe hislory of Canada Ihere-was a fight against what was known as the Family Compact, a struggle in which William Lyon ALtckenzie figured largely and in which at one time that patriot' was pursued with a price on his head. It would be a great thing if his successor, William Lyon Mackenzie King, would take up the fight and use his Herculean powers to make a clean up of the Canadian institution which lias so Ioiik been defiled by the presence of incompetents. Importance Of Casslar District. Since the discovery of gold at Dense Lake, Cassiar, by Mc-Culloch and Thibert in JST.'I, the . Stikine has conlribuled not a little lo the early hislory of British Columbia. It was visited by Sir Matthew Bailie Hegbie, the Chief Justice of British Columbia in 1870, and some of the notable pioneers of early days made their debut in the district, amongst whom were B. B. Davie, Theodore Davie, afterwards premier, Charles Legall and qthers. It has also played an important part in the marking of the International boundary line between Canada and the United Slates. The first official reference to this necessity was made in a resolution dated March 12. 1872. bv the Legislative AemMv Of British Columbia, in an address to Ihe Hon. Joseph William Truteh, Lieutenant Governor of the province, asking him to draw Hie matter to the attention of the Dominion Government, and in July of the same year a resolution to that effect was passed ny tne J-Aeculive Council of Ihe Province. Accordingly the miatler was brought to the attention of the Colonial Office', nnd Ihe British Ambassador at Washington inntiired in Xiivpm. her, 1872, if the United States Government would be willing to agree lo the appointment of a commission to consider the matter.

REPAIRED SHIP WITHOUT DOCK Captain Hocklnn Teils of Diffi culty Experienced When In New Zealand Capl. Hocking, skipper of the local built steamer Canadian Scollish, which arrived in port last evening, lells of rather a unique experience in couneeiwrt wild bis sliio. lie was in NeV Zealand lo load a cargo of wheat for Ihe Orient when several of the rivets just below the water line at Hie stern of Hie vee sprung a leak. It was impossible lo carry a cargo of grain under those conditions and there was no drydock within reach, sn Ihe Captain moved a thousand tons of freight forward, filled in-ballast tanks at Dial end and lightened everything astern thus bringing Hie leaking plates just above water. Ilepairs were made by the ship engineers and Hie cargo or wheat was delivered safely. The Captain explained Hint Hie springing of the leak wns. no re flection on the builders of the vessel. II was a common occurrence at the stern of an empty vessel nnd was caused by the extreme vibration caused when running light.
