A grievous state of affairs indeed, and one which the Lieutenant-Governor in Council has now put a stop to, with the laudable object of encouraging the led maii to work an/1 save his earnings. He has therefore passed an order that hereafter "110 Indian is to be permitted to enter any pool or billiard room or bowling alley in the Province of. Alberta."' There are two parties very dissatisfied with this new legislation, xme is the pool room propriteor, and the other is the poor Indian."—Canadian Mail.
