WHAT IS RECIPROCITY?
The Reciprocity Bill is a proposal between Canada and
the United States to reciprocally ablosih taxes on the food
products which are exchanged across the border between the
two countries.
It will mean a reduction in the high cost of living, and
make food more plentiful.
It will enable the people of British Columbia to enjoy the
early fruits of the Pacific States free of duty.
It will enable the fruit growers of British Columbia to
market their later matured fruits in the markets of the United
States at a time when they will bring the highest prices.
It will open the markets of the United States to the lumber
of British Columbia.
It will open the markets of the United States to the fisheries
of Northern British Columbia.
It will bring twenty thousand fishermen and their families
to Prince Rupert.
It will bring prosperity to Prince Rupert.

MR. BORDEN S UNPARDONABLE OFFENCE
The unpardonable offence for which the West will wreak its
well deserved vengeance upon Mr. Borden anel lhe Conservative party,
is that he deliberately forced the West to go to an election without
adequate representation.
It is a political crime which will Ik- remembered for a long time.
It means that 35,000 people in Comox-Atlin have only as much
representation as 20,000 people in Mr. Borden's own Maritime Provinces. And the case- of some of the prairie provinces is much worse
that lhat of Comox-Atlin.
How- does il come that a piece of unfairness of this kind is possible?
Under the British North America Act of 1807 which confederated
the provinces of Canada, the Province of Quebec was given a fixed
representation of sixty-five members in thc Feelcral House. The
other provinces were to be given representation in like ratio. There-presentation was arrived at by dividing thc population of Quelx-c
by 05.   This gave the ratio of representation for all the Provinces.
In 1871, the Maritime Provinces had a large population. The
West Including British Columbia had very little. But slowly the
population moved from lhe Maritime Provinces. With increasing
force the tide of immigration came into the West. Each ten years
in 1881, in 1891. in 1901 the grcat increase in Western population was
showfi. The present census of 1911. will outvie them all in showing
the growth of population in the West.
By October, the results of the census will be made known.    By
October tin- Government will lie in a position to bring in a Redistribution Bill and redistribute the scats according to the latest figures
of tin population, As the West has increased its population at a rale
fiir iu excess of the growth of population in Quebec it is known thai
lhe West is due to receive a large increase* in its reprc.scnlalirin.
No mailer whether a man liclicvcs in reciprocity or not, the
claim ol lhe "square deal" remains Untouched, The right of the peoplt-
ol (lanada to have (air representation, so that lhe majority may express
their will, and an according in their di sires, is a dear one. It is as wrong
to Steal representation from a number of ix-oplc as it is to steal their
watches and chains.
The political crime of Mr. Borden and his followers inheres in
the fact that in their fear of the expressed will of the majority of
the people of Canada they forced an election, almost on thc eve of
the declaration ol the census. Iii their efforts to defeat reciprocity
and to attain to office, they have forced the West to go into the contest
Unfairly represented.
Manitoba, Saskatchewan, Alberta and British Columbia must
enter the contest, not on the basis of their existing population, but
on the basis of the meagre  population ten years ago.
The man who has robbed the West of its representation, is appeal'
ing lo the West io defeat reciprocity and make him Premier.
Watch the West make answer.

So it proved! for in the morning
I found my friend on the hearthrug with his back to the fire, and
a smile of complete satisfaction
upon his face.
"How's this, Watson?" he cried,
picking up the paper from the
table. " 'High red house with
whin- stone facings. Third floor.
Second window left. After dusk���'
That is definite enough. I think
after breakfast we must make a
little reconnaissance of Mrs. Warren's neighborhood. Ah, Mrs. War
ren! Ah, Mrs. Warren! what
news do you bring us this morning"
Our client had suddenly burst
into the room with an explosive
energy which told of some new and
momentous development.
"It's a police matter, Mr. Holmes!" she cried. '"I'll have no
more of it? He shall pack out
of that with his baggage. I would
have gone straight up and told
him so only I thought it was but
fair to you to take your opinion
first. But I'm at the end of my
patience, and when it comes to
knocking my old man  about "
"Knocking Mr. Wurren about?"
"Using him roughly, anyway."
"But who used him roughly?"
"Ah! that's what we want to
know! It was this morning, sir.
Mr. Warren is a time-keeper at
Morton and Waylight's in Tottenham Court Road. He has to
be out of the house liefore seven.
Well, this morning he had not
gol ten |iace's down the road when
two men came up In-hind him,
threw a coat over his he-ad, and
bundled him Into a cab that was
beside the curb. They drove
him an hour, and then opened
the door and shot him out. He
lay in the roadway so shaken in
his wits that he never saw what
became of the cab. When hc
picked himself up he found he
was on Hampstead Heath; so he-
took a bus home, and there he
lies now on the sofa, while I came
straight round to tell you what
had happened."
"Most interesting," said Holmes.
"Did he observe the appearance
of these men���diel he hear them
talk?"
"No, he is clean dazed. He just
knows that he was lifted up as
if by magic. Two at least were
in it, and maybe three."
"And you connect this attack
with your lodger?"
"Well, we've lived there fifteen
years anel no such happenings
ever came before. I've had enough
of him, Money's not everything.
I'll have him out of my house
before the day is done."
"Wait a bit, Mrs. Warren.   Do
nothing rash. I begin to think
that this affair may be very much
more important than appeared
at lirsi sight. It is clear now that
some danger is threatening your
lodger. 11 is equally clear that
his enemies, lying in wait for him
near your eloor, mistook your
husband for him in thc foggy
morning light. On discovering
their mistake they released him
What would they have done had
it not been a mistake, we can
only conjecture.
"Well, what am I to do, Mr.
Holmes?"
"I have a grcat fancy to see
this lodger of yours, Mrs. Warren."
"I don't see how that is to be
managed, unless you break in
the door. I always hear him unlock it as I go down thc stair
after I leave the tray."
"He has to take the tray in.
Surely wc could conceal ourselves
and see him do it."
The   landlady   thought    for   a
moment,
"Well, sir, there's the box-room
opposite. I could arrange a looking-glass, may be, anel if you
were behind the door-������"
"Excellent!" said Holmes. "When .Iocs he lunch?"
"About one, sir."
"Then  Dr. Watson and  I  will
I come
I present, Mrs. Warren, good-bye
low-brick edifice in Great Orme
street, a narrow thoroughfare at
the northeast side of the British
Museum. Standing as ii does
near the corner of the street, ii
commands a view down Howe
street, with its more pretentious
houses. Holmes pointed with a
chuckle to one o( these, a row of
residential flats, which projected
so that they could not fail to
catch the eye.
"Sec, Watson!"sai.l he. " 'H*K*>
red house with stone facings.
There is the signal station all
right. We know the place, anel
we know the code; surely our
task should be simple. There's a
'To Let' card in thai window. It
is evidently an empty flat to which
the confederate has access. Well-
Mrs. Warren, what now?"
"I have it all ready for you.
If you will both come up and
leave your boots below on the
landing, I'll put you there now."
It was an excellent hiding-place
which she had arranged, The
mirror was so placed that, seated
in the dark, we could very plainly
sec the door opposite. We had
hardly settle*d down in it, and
Mrs. Warren left us, when a distant tinkle announced that our
mysterious neighbor had rung
Presently the landlady appeared
with the tray, laid it down upon
a chair beside the closed door,!
and then, treading heavily, departed. Crouching together in the
angle of the dooi, we kept our
eyes fixed upon the mirror. Sud-
elenly, as the landlady's footsteps dieel away, there was the
creak of a turning key, the handle
revolved, and two thin hands
darted out and lifted the tray
from the e-hair. An instant later
it was hurriedly replaced, and I
caught a glimpse of a dark, beautiful, horrified face glaring at the
narrow opening of the box-room.
Then the door crashed to, the
key turned once more, and all
was silence. Holmes twitched my
sleeve, and together wc stole down
the stair.
"1 will call again in thc evening," said he to thc expectant
landlady. "I think Watson, we
can discuss this business better
in our own quarters."
"My surmise, as you saw, proved
to be correct," said he, speaking
from the depths of his easy-chair.
"There has been a substitution of
lodgers. What I did not foresee
is that we should find a woman,
and no ordinary woman, Watson."
"She saw us."
"Well, she saw something to
alarm her. That is certain. The
general sequence of events is pretty
dear, is it not? A couple seek
refuge in London from a very
terrible and instant danger.    The
measure of that danger is the
rigour of their precaution. Tinman, who has some work which
he must do, desires to leave the
woman in absolute safety while
he does it. It is not an easy
problem, but he solved it in an
original fashion, and so effectively
that her presence was not even
known to the landlady who supplies her with food. The printed
messages, as is now evident, were
to prevent her sex being discovered by her writing. The man
cannot come near the woman,
or he will guide their enemies to
her. Since he cannot communicate with her direct, lis has recourse lo the agony column of a
paper. So far all is clear."
"But what is at the root of it?"

Make the worlel a little sweeter,

To the sunshine and the singing of
the dawn, of the dawn;
Take the dally task anel do it with
the will that wins the goal,
Make the world a little sweeter,
help ii roll, help it roll.
Sweeter world, sweeter world,
Make is sweeter where you
swing
With the spirit of your morning.
With   the   music   of   your
spring.
Make the world a Utile sweeter for
the weary anel the weak,
Who have found the pathway rugged and the goal so far to
seek;
Find thc glory in your labor and
the triumph in your care
For the equal gift of gladness, each
to each a little share.
Sweeter world, sweeter world,
Help it sweeten all along
With   the  sunshine  and  the
laughter
And the silver sweep of song.
Make  the world a  little  sweeter
with the sweci of being kind,
It will help to clear the shadows and
to satisfy ihe mind;
Take the roses of your spirit where
the blooms have not been
seen,
Plant the earth where'er you wander with the fresh and living
green.
Sweeter world, sweeter world,
Make it sweeter day by day
Willi the glory of the grasses
Anel the fragrance of ihe May.

The latest reports from Sydney,
N. S. W., would indicate that Jack
Lester is leaving no stone unturned in order to be at his best
when he next faces Bill Lang at
the Sydney stadium this month.
No definite date has been fixed
for the fight yet, but it will probably be hue iii the month. Lester
has "hied himself away to thc
woods," as he puis ii, and is eloing
ill his training at Tarana, a country town 130 miles away from the
city. Lester is remarkably confident of his ability to put Lang
iway next time they meet.

Tommy Bums has cabled Lester
to lhe* effect that he will be in
Sydney to second him in the next
battle, and Tommy has instructed

must not engage* iu any other

Lang." Only for these ins ructions
Lester would have met Bib Turner, an improving heavyweight,
who is just hungry for a light

Lester and all of the Other lighters
