ILL ANNUALLY EXPORT
$10,000,000 WORTH OF FISH
Ir. Howard Smith of Halifax Member of Largest Fish

vantages of reciprocity would
lean to Nova Scotia and all
ong the east coast of Canada.
li lideuii'.lly, Mr. Smith is broth-
, Mrs. VV. H. McLeod of this
', wife of the pastor of the
Baptist Church. In his
mill Mr. Smith gave some s*art-
ng evidence to substantiate the
���nefits of reciprocity and so im-
.rtant did the Halifax Chronicle
ink ii that the whole front
ige w;is given to featuring the
ui eh and the meeting.
Wi.li ilu tariff barrier removed
Canada will export to the I'l-iled
Slates 910,000,000 worth of fish
annually," si'id Mr. Smith. "Under .he new order of things Halifax
and the cast coast will come into
the ir own." All the advantages of
reciprocity would bring were* fully
explained. Opposition arguments
were overthrown by this man who
is a member of the largest fish

knew whereof he spoke.
The Canadian east coasl like
the Canadian west coast has far
more lish than can be found it

of reciprocity is obvious. No

CANADA AND THE FOOD TAXES
velopment of British Columbia than has ever happened yet,, r i- ever
likely to happen under retrograde Conservatism which aim- to "Conserve" the country's resources for the few, rather than to develop
tin in Liberally for the many. As if we didn't need to encourage the
many to settle in the Province and help on the good work!
A ~*
This is a little section ot the paper, which from day to day will be devoted
to subjects of special interest to women. Any and all of the ladiw of I'rince Rupert | pionshlp of C anaela last week,
what Mr. Balfour never doubted, that freedom sre invited to contribute to its columns, and to take part in its discussions. Suggestions and criticisms are invited by the editor. The hope is expressed that "The
Cosy Corner" will fill a social need.
A tariff on foodstuffs means a tax on food. Britain learned that
primary economic fact through sore experience. For this reason no
British Government will dare tax the UkkI of the British people. Sue-h
a proposal was made under the guise of a preference on Canadian
wheat. Its purpose, Mr. Chamberlain saitl, was to build up the Empire
But three times over the* people of Britain refused it. Every Liber. !
and every Radical fought it. Today inside thc L'nionist party itself
it is being strongly opposed and openly abandoned. The younger
men are coming to
to iiii|-K>ri foodstuffs from the widest, the best, and the most convenient
markets is absolutely necessary not only to Britain's commercial
Stability, but also to the very life of the British people. Britain will
not tax her people's food, anel therefore she cannot give* a preference
on Canadian wheat.
An Empire bound together by a tax on the food of the people,
with its millionaires on great estates and its inevitable hungry paupers
in city slum-. i�� an Empire doomed to speedy disruption and hojx-less
decay. And just because the Government and people of Britain
reject that policy of tariff union, and the overseas Prime Mii isten
refuse it. the Briiish Empire t.xlay is a living thing, wiih promise of
life and power and glory more splendid and more enduring than ever
these food-tax jingoes dreamed.
And in Canada of all places this food-tax policy is of all ihings
the most inexcusable. There is for it not even ihe poor excuse of
"protecting and infant industry." Agriculture and dairying and
lumbering and the fisheries are no-, puny infants whining to be- spoonfed. They can protect themselves by the robustness of iheir own
superiority. All they ask is that lhe Government see to it that the
canals .ire adequate, that the railways are efficient and just, and that
tariff obstructions art* taken out of the way. The farmers -corn the
notion that they cannot protect themselves. They mock the at idea
that a tariff can protect the-m. If any Canadian workingman can
buy meat or tlour or cheese or fruit at cheaper prices or of better
quality in the l'nited State?s than he can in Canada the- farmer- will!
not stand in his way. They are quite willing to take their chances
with their products in a market open to thc world.
The food-tax folly is even more foolish -till. L'nde-r the reciprocity
agreement not only would the consumers have all the advanalges
of the choice and quality and price provided by the wide range and
variety of soil and season and climate given by Cod to this American
continent, but there would also Ik- <.|K-retl to the farmers and fishermen
and lumber dealers of Canada Bt their vrry doord thc enormous ard
profitable markets <>f the United States. The almost prohibitive
duties along 3.700 mile-s of bound.iry would be removed. .Anything
the Canadian producer ha- t>. -, || would find readiest market without
tax or loss. The same agreemeni that would give freedom to she
consumers in the city would open wide- the door* to the* men on the
farm.
But no! We are* told it must not be. The city man must roi be

Extraordinary Predicament of
Young Couple in Seattle
Through Ignorance of Marriage Law.
A Seattle couple who have lieen
keeping house on a marriage license
since July ll last visited the
Marriage License Clerk yesterday
and asked him to "finish tilling
in" the license by attesting to the
marrif.ge.
"But I did not marry you,"
said the official, "ard I have no
rigl t to till it in. Is ii possible
that you have failed t<> get married after I grin-ted you the
license?"
"No foolin', young filler." said
the* he-ad of the family. "You
married us, ard you know you
did, ard I want 11;i- filled in, and
tilled in quick. We hi ve beer
keeping house since J lily 11. when
thc license was issued, and I
suppose you an- making a bluff
to get another fee out of us."
The clerk explained several limes
that a marriage license means
nothing, except that it authorizes
the proper authority to perform
a weddirg ceremony, ur.d thp.t
without the ceremony ;li.re i- t..
wedding, and finally ii dawned
on the "husband." Dejected and
disgusted, the newly married couple
departed in search of a clergyman.
