THE COMING
OF THE HINDU f
MAeMH-SS-lC-frl-frHM-
A recent dispatch from Vancouver
D. C, says:
Having settled the Chinese prob
lem by the enforcement of n head
tax, British Columbia is now face to
faco with a Hindu Invasion.
Within the last three months no
less than 4,000 natives of India have
settled in Vancouver, and every ship
from the Orient is rapidly bringing
hundreds more. With the nrrival of
each shipload tho scale of prices of
manual labor goes steadily down,
and from nil parts of British Colum
bia has arisen tho cry for drnstic
measures to dam this flood of Ori
ental labor.
Viewed from an economic stand
iamM-frw-M
bor sheds at loss than onc-hnlf tho
wage demanded by a white man. The
next steamor from the Orient
brought 250 more, and since then
they have been nrivlng steadily, each
now consignment being swallowed
up In tho lumber business.
Old British Soldiers.
One of tho interesting points
about the Hindu Invasion of Canada
Is that tho Invaders are for tho most
part old soldiers of the British em
pire. Many of them still wear their
uniforms. They dcclnro that tho
poor pay of tho British government
is responsible for their leaving their
homes and earning a livelihood in
an alien land. They say that it is
" " i - -
point, tho Hindus are considered as Impossible for a natlvo soldier of In
bad as the Chinese. They do not
possess tho finalities necessary for
tho making of good cltizens, they
Invest no money In tho country, they
reduce tho prico of lnbor, and their
intention Is to leave the country as
Boon as they have amassed what in
their eyes is n competency. Then,
again, they aro a serious menace to
tho health of tho community, as
they are entirely Ignorant of tho
most common laws of sanitation.
Time and again the health ofllclais
of Vancouver have been forced to
take active measures to prevent tho
spread of disease resulting from the
dirt and filth of tho Hindu quarter.
No White Immigration.
This influx of Hindu labor is tho
direct result of tho scarcity of la
borers on tho western coast of Can
ada. At tho commencement of tho
season tho lumbermen of British
Columbia discovered that they could
not secure enough help, ns tho tide
of white immigration from tho east
stopped t Calgary, Alberta, this
being ns far west as tho Canadian
Tactile Railroad company nllowcd
its colonist rates. The British inter
ests of British Columbia asked that
tho rato be allowed to tho coast, and
in various ways tried to secure It,
but tho Canadian Pacific Railroad
company refused to listen to the de
mands. A few mouths ago the citizens of
Vancouver wero surprised to see a
number of Hindus walking their
Btreots. At first they wore tho ob
jects of curiosity nnd mirth, but
these feelings suddenly disappeared
when it was learned thnt tho Hindus
wero working In tho mills niul.lum-
dla to servo any length of tlmo In
tho British sorvico without running
into debt, and it is to clear these
debts that they aro now working on
British soil for less money than the
British subjects demands.
There is a question ns to whether
tho Hindus can bo discriminated
against as was done in the caso of
tho Chinese. There Is a Dominion
law whereby any clnss of undorsir
ablo immigrants can bo refused per
mission to land on Canailian shores;
but ns these Hindus aro British sub
jects, they are, according to British
law, entitled to all tho privileges of
those who aro living under tho folds
of tho Union Jack, and tho British
Imperial government may take a
hand In tho matter.
May Cross the Lino. -
The question Is now being discuss
ed in England, but there does not
seem to be much sympathy for the
Canadians . there. The Manchester
Guardian, one of tho most influen
tial of the provincial papers of the
United Kingdom, says that tho best
way to solvo tho wliolo question
would bo for tho Canadians to pay
tho Hindu ns much ns ho docs the
whito man and thus get whito labor.
In tho meantime, the Hindus are
flocking Into Canada, and British
Columbia in no uncertain terms.
There Is dnngcr that tho Hindus
will, in a short time, cross tho line
into tho state of Washington and
flood tho western coast of tho United
States, just as tho Chlucso have
dono. Up to tho present time, how
ever, they nre needed only too badly
In Htitlsli Columbia, and there is em
ployment for all who come hero.

Heart
Weakness
The action of the heart de
pends upon the heart nerves
and muscles. When from any
cause they become weak or ex
hausted, and fail to furnish
sufficient power, the heart flut
ters, palpitates, skips beats;
and in its effort to keep up its
work, causes pain and distress,
such as smothering spells,
short breath, fainting, pain
around heart, arm and shoul
ders. The circulation is im
peded, and the entire system
suffers from lack of nourish
ment. Dr. Miles' Heart Cure makes
a heart strong and vigorous by
strengthening these nerves and
muscles.
"I had palpitation and pain nround
my heart, nnd tho doctors said Jt was
Incurablp. I don't believe It now, for
after taklnp six bottles of Dr. Miles'
Heart Cure, three bottles of thoNcrvlne
nnd threo boxes of tho r-ferVQ and
I,ler I'HIs I nm entirely cured, and
feel bettor than I liavo for llvo years,
and It Is nil duo to theso remedies. I
want you to know that your medicines
cured mo. U relieved mo from tho
first dose, nnd I kept rlRht on till tho
pain In my chest was Krone, nnd I kept
on feeling bvtter even after I quit
taking it." JOHN IX. HIUSKMAN.

Italian King nt a Itcvlow.
More cabs came; moro people;
venders begajj to come nnd go, with
sugar-and-water on trays, oranges,
etc. Small Italian boys, lrrepressl
blo like any others, crawled through
tho fenco Into tho review grounds
nnd wero chased back by authority
on horseback, nnd crawled through
again tho moment authority passed
on. A care worn Italian, looking
like a brigand, hut evidently the
mildest of men in tho bosom of his
family, tried to keep four llttlo girls
and two boys In order on tho grass,
and was continually overrun nnd
checkmated by thorn Instead. They
woro only quieted by tho clear sound
of tho royal trumpets singing over
tho field, nnd tho murmur, "II re!
II re!" which heralded tho ontranco
of King Victor Emmnnuel nnd his
olllcers. Tho rovlow stnnd, draped
in tho Italian colors, wns at tho end
of tho field: but whether tho bomb
throwing nt Madrid at King Alfon
so's wedding, three dnya before, had
made royalty doubt tho wisdom of
any fixed program, or whether n cen
tral position suited' tho reviewing
better, tho king never 'went nenr It.
Down tho lines ho rode, on a big
hay horse, riding very well, and look
ing very pallant in his white plume
and green baldric, with a brilliant
etoup of offlcors behind him. But
whereas on Independence day at
homo tho President woiUd bo greet
ed with thunderous cheers and ap
plause, thero was hardly a hand-clap
ns tho king rodo close to tho banked
masses of tho people "Tho English
aro called such a cold rnce, don't
)'oi know," observed tho Spectator's
British companion, struck with tho
same fact, "and tho Italians are con
sidered so enthusiastic and excitable
llut In England tho peoplo wll go
wild If King Edward comes any
where lu sight; and hero nobody
seoms to care." Tho Spectator had
noticed an cntlro lack of enthusiasm
is tho popo was borne through the
Vatican to a canonization tho Sun
day before, but had thought tho
sparse waving of handkerchiefs a
mero sign that piety was on tho
ane in tho Roman mind. Perhaps,
however, tho Italian waste bo much
energy ia overy-day gesticulation
that they have bo reserve fund such

Up to Him.
It Is said that Chairman Sherman
of tho Republican campaign com
mittee was recently approached by
a somewhat unimportant Ohio poli
tician, who, though formerly a Repub
llcau, has of lato years voted tho
state Democratic ticket.
It appeared from tho mnn's con
versation that ho had seen tho error
of his way nnd was now onco moro
propared to voto and work for tho
party which ho had left. At the sumo
tlmo ho hinted that ho would llko a
job at campafgn headquarters.
"I'm sorry," Mr. Sherman Is re
ported to havo replied, "that I shall
have to disappoint you. Glad to seer
you bnck; but in theso days the wise
prodigal brings nlong his own cnlf,"
