of the _provineial government to: enact
retroactive laws, taking away righte

Ifthe Semlin government let the-alien

t stand, a bill

- increasing the representation through-

out the mining | regions . is. quite opt. to

reduce greatly. the chances of it: being

returned to power.. If Hume is beaten

“The.selection of Charles. Collins a:
chief of the fire department iaa just
recognition of abality and’ services pre-
“vionsly rendered. , It is. also showing a
deference to the fize department, which
the f Mr.
Collins. Hossland-has eo far be. im very
fortunate, in her small. losses by fire,
which can be credited. ta the, harmony
and efficiency that. bas:in. the. past pre-
veiled in: the. department,

It; was.to be hoped that eomething
~ would’ be done toward repealing or
amending the lien placer .act yet this
term, but. the raling.out of Mr. McPhil-
lipp’ bik shows an, inclinition.. upon the
part.of, the government to.stand'to what
they.have done. They may change their
minds aboutit after the Nelson riding,
election, "
