The last government payment was recently made. The Indian spot where mud predominated Whatever snow there had been was thoroughly mxied with the unlimited mud. Enquiry elicited tho fact that time has not arrived wheu these patches of mud were found OPPOSITION ALMOST GONE there has become so highly educated and imbued with a sense of hisj own dignity and strength that such pay- ments are no longer necessary. In one of the western States the Indian j has progressed so far as to control the stite office?, and doctors, lawyers, shrewd business men and ordained ministers arc to be found among them. This marvelous tiansformation from warring heathens to brilliant mod- ernized men of the world has all been accomplished in one generation, and the magnitude of the miracle can scarcely be appreciated at its proper value by those who only read tiie cold facts. It is one of the marvels oi the past half century. While this has been the case among our uiighbors to the south, what has Canada been doing ? So far as one can sec she appears to be travelling along the same old rut that In the elections in British Columbia last week the Conserviitivo party with Premier McBrido at its head was rc- over j elected with an overwhelming majority. The opposition to the Government numbers imly five, three Liberals and two Hocialists. To bo the leador of tlio opposition in such a case could be con- sidered no great honour. Mr. .fohn Oliver, leader of the Liberals, who went to defeat, declares that the overwhelming victory is tho result of a huge conspiracy. It looks like it, too~« huge conspiracy im the part of the people to support Premier McBride's railway policy, which had been declared suicidal; and to secure tho return of the Conservative jwrty to jiower. The only danger that this victory con- tains is found in tho weak Opposition. If Premier Mclirido is able to steer his jMii-ty clear of shoals ho will bo a strong man and fully worthy of tho iiiitgniliceiit su])]ioit tho nmH.ses have given him. where the road had been graded and not covered with gravel or crushed stone.

No effoit ap- pears to have been made to lesson tho number of our treaty Indiansâ€" rather the contrary. The result is that most of these Indians are becoming ' pauperized to such a degree that they are scarcely likely to ever rise above their unambitious squalor, but depend wholly upon the government to supply their modest necossitios.

This will form good ammunition for those who are waging war against tho habit of wearing other people's hair. Tho thoughts of wearing the hair of a leper would not cause the head that wears a "crown" (of false hair) to rest easily we should imagine. The manager of a southern tele- phone branch suggested that a negro porter accompany a young lady operator, who had been detained at work until a late hour, home. The When we degired to know why the Indian agents did not put a stop to euch abuses the reply was that the wgents would soon lose their jobs if they did so, aa they would have no one told the other operators who went on strike, and the piesuraptuous manager was whipped by enraged citiiions until tho blood flowed.
