Mowat arrived on the Rupert, Sunday, to fill the vacancy on the local staff of the Bank of Montreal. Mr. Mowat is well known here, having spent several weeks in Stewart during the early part of the year. A number of the lots recently purchased from the Stewart Land company are being cleared up preparatory to the building of homes. As several of them are located on prominent street corners, great improvements is also one of the stockholders in will be made to the appearance the Indian mine. of the town. MANN'S TOWNSITE ON MARKET Negotiations, which have been under way for sometime, have recently been completed whereby District Lot 443 will soon be placed on the market. This property, which was subdivided some years ago into town lots by Sir Donald Mann and associates, lies immediately east of the railway tracks, and extends from a point near the mouth of Bear river, north to beyond the station. By the making of these several hundred lots available, at very low prices to the homese. kers of the Portland Canal, the size of the town of Stewart will be materially increased. While the actual details have not yet been worked out, it is safe to say that this will be the cheapest property ever put on the market in this district, either on the British Columbia or Alaska side, for which an indefeasible title can be given. lt is anticipated that the prices will be such that, with the developments that are to take place up the Bear river valley next season, practically assuring a railway within the next two years or so, the bulk of this property will be sold in a very short time. H. W. M. Rolston of Stewart has been appointed local agent for the company, and expects to receive plans and details of price in the very near future. Armistice dance, Nov. 11.

Grant Mahood, president and managing-director of the American Mining and Milling company, left for Vancouver on the Rupert, Sunday, on a business trip. Mrs. Dale L. Pitt and daughter Elizabeth left for the south on the Rupert, Sunday. After placing her daughter in school in Prince Rupert, Mrs. Pitt will leave for the east on an extended visit with relatives. Mrs. M. R. Jamieson and son Lome left for New Westminster on the Rupert, Sunday. Mrs. Jamieson, after entering Lome in college, will spend several weeks with friends in Vancouver before returning. A. L. Carruthers, public works engineer for this district, and George Young, general road foreman, arrived on the Rupert, Sunday, and are spending the week inspecting the roads, trails and bridges of the district.

Nesbitt and A. Archie, of Stewart, was this week bonded to influential parties. It being too late in the season to accomplish much in the way of development, nothing will be done to next spring, when it is understood a progresive development program will be put into effect. This property, which consists of five claims, is well situated on the north fork of Glacier creek, about three and one-half miles from the Bear river wagon road, or a total distance of from 8 to 9 miles from tidewater at Stewart. After leaving the wagon road the claims and the camp thereon are reached by a good horse trail, three and one-half miles in lenJ-th.

No Advertising* Aecepted for First Page GEOGRAPHICAL POLITICS THE controversy between Progressives who desire to "broaden out" and the United farmers of Ontario who remain closs-conscious, is brought to a point by Mr. Morrison, the organizer of the United Farmers. Speaking in Frontenac a short time ago, he drew the political line sharply between city and country, between farmers and people of all other vocations. To the Frontenac farmers he said: "You are opposed to urban residents, for your ideas and economic principles are just the oppo- posite of those held by city residents, and you might just well try to mix oil with water." Come to look at it this is startling traveler of Juvenual laughs at the highwayman. Lloyd George is a solicitor, and never had a great professional income like some of his former colleagues, as Mr. Asquith, Lord Birkenhead, Sir John Simon and Lord Carson. Nevertheless, he is secure from poverty, so that he is simply giving up the opportunity to double his income after retirement. Lloyd George is making the same use of the proceeks of his forthcoming book as Ralph Connor is said to have made of the income of his latest volume, and Canon Scott of his war reminiscences. WHERE POINCARE FAILS IT is evidently a good idea for Britain to leave the reparations initiative with France for the time being. M. Poincare is an excellent critic and a fine advocate of the rights of his people. But he has never shown himself great in action. As war president he gave Clemenceau his own way. There is now no Clemenceau to prepare a program and carry it through. The premier wins high approval in France when he makes strong declarations, but strong declarations will not drag reparation money from Germany. So far M. Poincare may claim a large share in th-- overthrow of Briand the abrupt close of the Cannes meeting, the block of the Genoa conference, the failure of the London conference, and the ineffectiveness of the Hague meeting. These are negative triumphs. Europe waits for him to start something. TOM MOORE AGAIN ELECTED for the fifth time president of the Dominion Trades and Labor Congress, Tom Moore occupies in Canada a position somewhat similar to that of Samuel doctrine. It implies that there is no right Gompers in the United States. Capitalist and and wrong, no just and unjust, no wise or j employers do not find either of them lacking in unwise general policy. It can hardly be true (aggressiveness.

But the Swedes trouble of considering politioal issues. Hi*iare not ^\ Prempared t0 enter uP��n the prohibition vote become a matter of geopraphy, so simple that even a moron need not err therein. FOR CHARITY THE latest statement about Lloyd George as an author vindicates him from the charge of writing his memoirs for the money that they will bring. Some person made the discovery that if the i.��u,ot.o to be paid to the author were all counted as one year's earnings the treasury would take nearly half of it as income tax. Lloyd George might fairly claim that the proceeds would represent the earnings of more than one fiscal year, which would greatly reduce tne rate per cent. But as it appear* that he ioUnds to devote the whole proceed!, tu some war charities, he can laugh at the tax collector as the penniless experiment. The plebiscite required a GO per cent vote to authorize prohibitory legislation, and the extra dry vote was a little under 50 per c�� ntg Though large, wet majorities were given in the cities the prohibitionists seem to have failed to obtain the required 60 per cent even in the country districts. The people cannot be charged with indifference as the vote polled is equal to about half the total population. DON'T DIVORCE YOUR WIFE Get the best for your better half.

In fact, at outside coast cities- we are told, they are rapidly returning to the swish of long skirts. And the reason! given for the rapid change is be- cause men refuse to marry ] scantily garbed girls. And in j the interest of matrimony���the ultimate aim of every girl ���modern feminity is bundling up so iti can again mystify man into a1 trip to the altar. "When girls, by self-reveal- ment, cease to be mysteriows, men no longer wish to marry them," is the way Andrew Tri- don, the famous French psychologist put it when asked te. analyze the change of style back to long skirts. 'Women found they were matrimonially undesirable and that there are things that attract men far more than semi- nudity. Clothes have long been a secondary characteristic of women, as men's interest wanee. The flapper, therefore, to escape spinsterhood, is returning to the good old age of feminine mystery.
