Sir Wilfrid Lau-I tier spoke for the first time on the, reciprocity proposals in the House of Commons today, in a speech Hull of' sound reasoning und gems of eloquence. He defended the agreement in its! eniierety, his views against annexation and for establishing good relation*. with the United States being especially emphatic. He predicted "that tho two peoples, living in | eace und harmony side by side in nu mil confidence, with no other j rivalry save generous emulation in; commerce and the nrts of peace would be un object lesson to the whole world. And in such relations, Canada will render unto England and the whole! British Empire a service unequalled j in its immediate effect, and still mure far-reaching in its conaequehcee." "Let us," he continued, "disregard all freaks, and all unreasoning panics. | All the present proposals ask is that the Canadian who works hi the Iii Id be allowed to obtain the bist possible remuneration (or his labor." Sir Wilfrid strongly denied that the effect nf the agreement 'would be to divert Canadian trade to United tates channels. He closed n magnificent speech with a strong plea for .. better undent Anding and b tter feeling between the manufacturer and the farmer. MORE IMMIGRANTS FOR B.

The fishery cruiser Kestrel has made u rupture us well us the Rainbow. A duy or two ago she arrived at Quatsino with six settings of halibut trawls which she picked up close to Cape Cook within the three-mile limit. At the time the geur wus captured a schooner was sighted ten miles off shore lravelling under sail and gas, and she was probably lhe boat which left tl.e gear behind in her efforls not to be caught. The capture included nearly three miles of line with hooks. Some of ii was lakeii up and the reel CUt adrift. There was S lot of cod and halibut on the hooks so that the officers and men of the Kestrel hud abundance of fresh lish for a few days.

Thereby she confirms an ancient Russian proverb: "All the brains of u fumily go wrong together." The proverb applies, because il is essentially tlie same nervous inuludy which afflict! the Czarina Alexandra in Friedberg castle, and her sister, Grand Duchess EUssbetb, in her Moscow cell. The expression alone differs, Alexandra Feo- dorovna hus the mania for persecution, and believes that nil the world is conspiring uguinsi her life. Elizabeth Feodorovnu believes that the heavens ure leagued against her, und thut she can save her soul ulonc by wrestling with her uecusing conscience, by spending her days in holy works und her nights in prayer. Thus destiny, with un irony even more thun usually grim, afflicts with spiritual gloom the two Anglo-German princesses, und long ugo the Wildest, bravest und merriest of the daughters of Europe's courts. At present lhe grund duchess is finishing u series of prolonged visits to ull the most famous monasteries nnd shrines iu the empire. Never did pilgrim travel with such royal state. In the special traiii travel a whole host of secretaries, uide-de-camps and high ecclesiastics. The vast sums spent on the pious journeys are, of course, a heavy expense lo Sergius' widow. Rut Serguis was the richest of all Ihe Ro- maiiolf grand dukes, he lived on his salary ils governor ol Moscow, hoar ed his vast private income and added considerably lo his fori line by various roguish enterprises. Today the grand duchess has command of at least $16,- 000,000, but she is doing her best to make it less. Naturally her lavish expenditure on religious aims is regarded with disfavor by her relatives. The grand duchess has no children of her own and she is courted by hard-up and greedy relatives, who wutch her dwindling subsiuncc with unfuvoring eyes. you got on? Very well; put it down, together with a change. You get up. What do you do? Wash yourself. What do you wash yourself with? Soap. Put down soap. Go on till you have finished. Then take your clothes. Begin at your feel. What do you wear on your feet? Boots, shoes, socks. Put them down. Work up till you get to your head. What do you want besides clothes? Put down everything. This is the plan the old gentleman always pursued. The list made, he would go over it carefully to see thut he hud forgotten nothing. Then he would go over it again and strike out everything it was possible to dispense with. Then hi .could lose the list. SS. Sails for Vancouver Victoria AND Seattle Thursdays, at 3.30 p.m. .a.

A There was nn demonstration on the ai rival oT the steamer, but the wharfs nre always watched by the Striken when boats arrive. This morning it is said ihul two men appeared on Mclnnis & Kelly's contract ready to no to work. They were interviewed by a committee of the strikers and did not start up. This afternoon it was rumored that there might be trouble On the same cut, as Mclnnis had lifteen men ready to start at 1 p.m. A body of the strikers attended them, but apparently there was nothing lo the rumor. The men continue to occupy their hall during the day, and are si ill quietly determined. A well organised com missariat department is looking after the wains of the men who are broke. There are not many of them. Interviewed today, S. P. McMordie maintained his attitude as at lirst. He docs not consider the 45 cent rate al all feasible or thc granting of it advisable. "With so many men ready in Vancouver and other coast cities to work for less," he says, "it would be ridiculous to pay 45 cents per hour for unskilled labor here." The other contractors standing out voice the same opinion, but M. Gurvitch will probably start tomorrow. DOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOf [ Canadian Gtneral Electric Go. Ltd. Canada Foundry Co., Ltd.

Letters to the Editor Daily Edition. Wednesday, March 8 Well Done, Alderman Newton Upon many recent occasions it haa been our duty to adversely criticise the conduct of Alderman Newton. For this reason it is an added pleasure to be able to commend his public conduct in light ing single-handed against his colleagues in the council over lhe question of hotel hours. His conduct at Monday evening's council meeting was deserving of the highest praise. His stand in support of the plebiscite ns a fair method of settling the question of hotel hours, showed on this question at least, that Alderman Newton is prepared to put lhe interests of the electors before the demands of the machine. We would not be stinting in our commendation of his action. The public has not wakened up yet to the significance of the new license bylaw - liich wa.** rushed through the council on Monday night. The hotelmen��� mini) '.f whom were behind the demand for it���have not all realised yet that it is a whip wherewith to scourge their bucks, a chain wherewith they may be shackled to the machine. But when the public and the Imtelmen waken up to know whut manner of by-law this is, they will not feel very grateful to he council who forced it on the public. Alderman Newton was quite correct in his claim that the clause in the nev by-law which provides for the keeping open of bars till midnight, should be sub mitted to the people for their pronouncement. By their action in forcing the extension of hours through without permitting a plebiscite the council showed that they feured the people's will. For his outspoken stand against such arbitrary treatment of the citizens, Alderman Newton has earned the thanks of all who believe in government by thc people. ARE YOU IN NEED OF HELP?

SCHEVMERHORN. 54-57 Clarkslnn, Washington Nonce The Old By-Law and the New One of the last acts of the old council wus to frame and pass a by-law to regulute hotel burs. One of the first acts of the new council is to pass a new by-law to regulate hotel bars. At first sight the two by-laws seem identical. Clause after clause for nearly fifty clauses the new by-law was copied from the old one. In only two cluuses do they differ. The first is thai the old by-law insisted on bar*, closing ul 11 p.m.; thc new by-law permits them to remain open till 12 midnight. Th it is a chunge which is readily understood and upon which citizens, according to their convictions will have clear-cut differences. There is nothing sinister ubout it. With the other clause- clause 47 in the old by-law���it is different. In the hub bub about extending the hours on which the bars may keep open it wus almost lost sight of. Yet il is by fur lhe most important item in the chunge. Its absence from the new by-law has a decidedly sinister suggestion. Clause 47 or the "square deal clause" wus u unique cluuse, in British Columbia, It was designed by lhe lata council to prevent the liquor truffle of I'rince Ruperl from ever being lie.l to the wheels of any polilicul machine. It provided ihul no license bidder could have his license luken awuy from him, so long us he conducted his hole! v.iihotu misdemeanor. "Absolutely ititro ririn, and a mom salulory clause to insert in uny license law" was tha opinion of one of the most prominent King's Counsellors in British Columbia lo whom the clause was submitted. Polities did not enter into his judgment, (or the counsel in question is a very well-known Conservulive. The need of such u clause is well shown by such it combination of circumstance*, as we have at the present moment in i'rince Rupert. Theoreticully, the citizens liavc two represent at ives, and the Province one, on the License Com- ii.iv.ion. But dill ll how ii works out in fact. Mr William Munson us member for Bkaana iinminiiti-s OIM private dtiian and one aldermun as commissioners. Then Mr. William Man-nin as Mayor of Prince Rupert becomes the third member of tha board hlmaalf, Cotnmanl is Huperiiuous. The ''���quart deal clause" was the only safeguard u license-holder hud thut his living did not depend upon the caprice of a board of license commissioners who might be all members of one political parly and pledged to the principle of "to the victors, belong the spoils." It wus the license-holders Mugnu ("hnrta; the one tiling which was capable of keeping the licensed trude in I'rince Rupert safe from spoliation at the hands of machine politicians. There was only one way of gelling rid of thc square deal clause which the fust council of I'rince Rupert embodied in lhe city by-laws, that was by bringing in an entirely new by-law- nd a new by-law with the square deal clause cut out has been brought in. Was the licensed trude of Prince Rupert lulled into security by thc promise of another hour's extension? Is this the meaning of the new license by-law?

TITE, Assignee of Arthur Heiney CARSS 4 BENNETT. Solicitors for Assignee Dated this 6th day of March. 1911. 64-6S Alderman Clayton and the Red Flags Sir,���At a meeting of the city council on Monday night Alderman Clayton inquired whether it was true that the Industrial Workers were demanding from the city employees 60 cents per day each man. For Aldermun Clayton's benefit I would say that the Indussriul Workers have made no demand for money from any man. But the single men have volunteered to subscribe 60 cents per day toward the strike fund, which is pretty healthy, and we want no assistance from married men. You have got to be a British Subject, a married man, a white man, a resident, and a taxpayer to work for the city at present. And now it seems as if some of the aldermen would want to make us spend our money ns they sec fit. I think that when a man works knee deep in muskeg he should be uble to do with his money us he pleases. Per- hups they would ruther see that 60 cents spent between the hours of 11 and 12 p.m., the extension of time they have given the hotel keepers* But this time the workers are going to fool them instead of buying white shirts and plug hats for saloon keepers they ure going to buy grub for the strikers instead of sore heads they will have full stomachs. It seems us if some people are sore because this strike is being carried on in a quiet and peaceful manner. In regard to the Red Fla- incident, if Aldermun Clayton had put on his glasses while looking ut that parude he would have seen that the workers had three banners, not flags, and that although there was a predominence of red there was also white and blue, the three colors that go to make up the Union Jack.

The measure proposes to place a fine, not exceeding $50, on the man guilty of doing the damage, and to hold the railway responsible under a decision of a magistrate for the loss sustained. Hon.

In moving the second reading of the bill to prevent discrimination against members of trades unions, he rcmarketl that this woultl probably be the last speech he woultl make as a representative in the provincial legislature. It is well known that Mr. Hawihornlhwiiite has ambitions to move to a larger field and intends to be a candidate for the Dominion parliament at the next elections. Evidently he figures that the Dominion elections will be pulled off before another year has elapsed. Mr. Hawthornthwaite has been in the Provincial House since 1901. His bill ubout trades unions was i bowled out with scant ceremony. Premier McBride merely remarked thai | interferences between employers and I employees should not be undertaken without great care. Then the second i reading was voted down, this being - the last vote of the session. "A LOT OF LOAFERS" Thua Does an Ontario M. P. P. De- acribe Hia Colleague! Toronto, March 7.

They did nut work more thun live tlays a week antl often not more than two hours u day. And il hatl been decided lo increase the pay of these "precious loafers" from $1000 to $400 for the three months they spend in Goronto.
