"We further recommend that compulsory pllotabe be abolished so far as British Columbia is concerned, as it is at variance with the law." The above is one of the sentences contained in a report suggesting amendments to the new Canada Shipping Act, and presented to a largely attended meeting of the Vancouver Shipmasters' Association and carried by them unanimously. Captain Harvey Copp, the president, was in the chair, and the report was read by Captain James Stewart on behalf of the committee, which had gone thoroughly into the matter. The recommendation with reference to compulsory pilotage urged that this system was at variance with law because It left the ship immune from liability when damage was done and when the court found that the damage was solely due to the pilot in charge, whose services had been forced upon the owners and who was not in the employ of the owners. It was recommended that the big fishing vessels of from 200 to 340 gross registered tonnage (Continued on Page Two.)

Germans Repulsed By British Forces With Severe Losses London, Jan. 26.—Au oflicial statement made here says that yesterday in the neighborhood of La Bassee the enemy delivered several violent attacks against the first division. They were repulsed with severe losses. In one place on the La Bassee road three hundred Germans were killed and 55 prisoners were taken, including two officers. An attack on tbe French lines was also repulsed. At Glvenchy and Guinchy, near La Bassee, the Germans delivered five attacks on tlie British lint. After making slight progress, the Germans were repulsed, leaving numerous dead and sixty prisoners. West of Croanne thc Germans made two successive attacks. The first was repulsed. The second penetrated the French trenches, the French counter-attacking and regaining the lost ground. Splendid Reception Given Member At The Smoker Held Last Night H. S.

The smoker held last night in St. Andrew's Hall in honor of H. S. Clements, M.P., was a grand success, It was of a very informal nature but showed that Conservatism in Prince Rupert was never stronger than at the present time. Mr. Clements was the only speaker, an opportunity being afforded him to express his views on the situation. In view of the fact that there had been rumors as to whether he would when an election came round be a candidate for this end of the constituency or for the southern end, Mr. Clements took oc- had felt, therefore, that it was an especial duty to see that the constituency was well looked after.

In another province the same state of affairs would be set forth to show a deficit harbor and sink her. The Iroquois presumably, would have to have a compulsory pilot. Tbe Empress would put the blame upon the Iroquois. The matter would go Into the court and of perhaps half a million on current] the Empress would win, but the account, with capital outlay of five millions on new colonization roads and on permanent buildings. British Columbia charges all expenditure tc current account, though, of course payments for new hospitals, or provincial educational buildings, are not expenditures of the same class as expenditure for maintenance and current services, says the News-Advertiser. But our system has a good deal to recommend it. Highways, school hulldings and hospitals, are not revenue-producing investments, and such excess of expenditure goes like the rest to increase the net debt. It would have been well had the Dominion adopted at the beginning the system of charging all expenditure to one account, as they do in Great Britain and British Columbia. Deficits up 'lo fifty million dollars would have been the same as now. We cannot in British Columbia repeat last year's excess of expenditure. One difference between the expenditures elsewhere called capital and the current expenditure is the possibility of cutting out the whole or a large part of the extraordinary outlay. judge would decide that the pilot aboard tbe Iroquois was responsible, because tbe owner would argue that he was compelled to carry the pilot and the pilot was not his servant. It was asserted by one shipmaster that this was precisely what happened in the case of the Olympic-Hawke collision, where the pilot was found, solely to blame and the owners of the ship were immune. If there was n voluntary system of pilotage the pilot became the servant of the owner of the vessel. IT'S GETTING BETTER. SHIPMASTERS URGE.

NATHAMD W. BRADSTACK. J. P. Meehan, Agent. Dated August 22, 1914. s26 E. L. Pease, tbe vice-president am! general manager of Ihe Royal Bank, at the annual meeting of the directors, after drawing attention to different features of the statement, dwelt al length on the condition of affairs In Canada at the present lime and the strides that the country had made during the pest twelve months. Me pointed out that in most instances, such as the railway earnings, bank clearings, total exports, total Imports, there had been very large decreases, whereas in the live previous years increases were the rule. Increases were shown only In the value of field crops, which showed an increase of ^86,000 000, and public deposits, whicl; showed an increase of $6,800,000. Referring to this condition, Mr. Pease pointed out that the five previous years had been ones of rapid and much artificial development attended, as always,, by speculation, inflation and extravagance. It is providential that the inevitable reaction set in a considerable time before the outbreak of hostilities. If the war had caught us in the throes of the boom, it would have been a sad day for Canada. As a result of the drastic liquidation which has taken place, a spirit of caution and conservatism now prevails, and our economic condition is infinitely sounder than it has been for many years. Fortunately so, because we were confronted in August last by an unprecedented situation, being suddenly thrown upon our own resources by the stoppage of the flow of foreign capital. Until this flow is resumed it is evident that we must live within ourselves. The problem is, can we do so? I think it possible. Some revision of preconceived plans will be unavoidable. Our progress may be less rapid and retrenchment will be necessary but the manner in which the country has faced the situation during the first five months of the war is an alugury of the future. Imports in this period decreased $82,247,000, compared with the same months of the previous year, but exports decreased only $27,847,000, leaving a balance of $49,258,000 In our favor. This achievement is remarkable, considering that our imports .have invariably exceeded our exports for many years past, the adverse balance for the fiscal year 1910 being* $71,002,000; for 1911, $161,745,- 000; for 1912, $213,732,000; for 1913, $292,932,000; and for the first seven months of 1914 $96,218,000.

Another effort to destroy the characteristic dresses of the Highland regiments 'is being made just now and unless Highlanders all over tlie Empire protest against tbe innovation now being introduced the kilt will be the subject of so much ridicule that the soldiers will gladly part with it for trews and the popularity of the Scottish regiments will be a thing of thc past. In shorl, the proposal is to substitute a drab cloth kilt of Inferior materials and badly made for the present warm and comfortable garment. So scanty is the new kilt that il will be no protection from chills. Poor Sandy who wears neither drawers nor pants is to have but a single ply of khaki to cover his thighs! Nor Is that the only objection. The pleats will not He flat but sland out like some ballet dancer's skirt and the material is so inferior that It will last no time. An anonymous writer who I imagine Is Mr. Neil Munro the well known Scottish author, declared thai if Scotsmen do not protest the Scottish soldier before the end of the winter will be fighting in the trenches with nothing more than a loin cloth round his middle and might as well go bare, while trousered battalions may wear three or four strain of underclothing, Send round the fiery cross! i mencing at a post planted at high water on easterly side of De Horsey Island and about two miles in a north-easterly direction from Parry i Point; thence west 20 chains; thence j south 20 chains, thence east 20! chains more or less to shore-line; thence northerly and easterly - following the sinuosities of the shoreline to point of commencement and | containing 40 acres more or less.

ESTABLISHING FAIR RATE FOR HOTEL MEALS How .LP. in Olds Settled the Matter When It Came Before Him. Says the Calgary Albertan: The first try-out of the new "Dead-Beat" act, passed at the last session of the legislature, took place at Olds last Wednesday. The proprietor of one of the local hotels and a Calgary man were at opposite ends of the string and the Calgary man won out, getting the decision from the J.P. Four-bits was the amount of money at issue, but both parties thought the principle involved was as high as the Rocky .Mountains. On Tuesday George Coyne, of Calgary, with a couple of friends, took dinner at the Royal Hotel, Olds. The party fared sumptuously and ate their way through the menu all the way down to toothpicks. It was when It came to settling that a difference of opinion arose. Landlord Jay Russell of the Royal does not have a set of platform scales in his dining room but he estimated the cost of the three feeds to be $2 in all. Mr. Coyne disagreed and offered $1.60, which figures ,,.;t at 50c per head. The hotel man stood out for the $2, and finally summoned the constable, who impounded the baggage of bis guests as security for the balance. The vehemence of the controversy was the event of the day in Olds. The J.P., however, threw in his lot with the defendants and dismissed the case. Mr. Coyne and bis associates reclaimed their baggage and went on their way to Calgary rejoicing. The principle seems to be established by law and practice that the price of a dinner in Olds shall be an even ."lie hereafter.
