Almost anything is liable to be sprung at an election. 'Twas whispered the other day that the convention when properly seated might raise the,question "of leadership, and having the aged, premier in a large, meeting he would not^have the power to oppose the same as he.had at the meeting in Victoria last February,, and would thus have to submit to the question- being raised. It is well known that Attorney-General' M'anson wishes to have the reigns-of power in his own hands, and his many friends think that.he would.be.the,right man in the right place and that the convention would: be the .proper time and place to spring' the question of leadership. It would-be.possible to have a leader of. the,party, and he at the same time'not "the'.leader of the. govr eminent',.'especially/when the major- lty of the, people are. of the -opinion \ to enjoy taking off his hat he. take off,his shoes. Without entering'.- into the question of which is right or which is wrong the Canadian custom is to r,e move the-head; gear (for-the ' mjMe).- Men with itheir, head jgear oh, , ,,in a place of worship oripublic gathering; whether it be a question . of religion or not, are not -obeying, the custom of the country. Other differences of the custom of two parts of, , the British-Empire mighLbe taken up',- but the.one is enough to show that there is no. assimmilation, between vtlie.Canadian and the Hindu. Were the Canadian in India he would . naturally 'obey the customs of the country, thus placing himself in the receptive mood. Canadianism is something to be desired of all who come to make of themselves citizens of the _ country and the man or woman who cannGt obey those principles should not he allowed the franchise until such , time .as he wishes to adapt himself to,the land the benefits,of which he-wi3hes The regulations have not been changed-in .respect of automobiles owned by non-residents entering Canada, for, pleasure purposes for a period, not exceeding 24 hours, in -which case the collector at the frontier.. i& authorized to,,permit entry withoir. the usual report upon the owner surrendering his ' State licence card, which is-to be handed to him on , his return journey.

IH>JIHIWIWJI^WilMIIBWWMHm������^y HOW ALTITUDE IS ESTIMATED that the(party is losing ground , with .the .present .leader. Everywhere ,one' hears the. opinion expressed by Liberals that Premier Oliver is,,not .the.,right/ man in . the right place, any. longer.and that .new blood must'be injected into.the party in order.that'it .may become more popular "with thei people. Since Mr. W. J. Bowser has been elected the leader of his rpar ty at,the recent convention, the Conservatives throughout the province have become more hop.efuLand.one.hears more in favor, of "Bowser now .than ever before. To offset ;this popularity the Liberals 'will have to, do so,mething with the"present leader, and many,are of the. opinion- that it'would be better to scrap Premier John Oliver than to scrap the P. G. ;E. < Just at the time .when . the Eastern question comes -up Canada has, a visit from a~prom'inerit native of- India, asking that the1 Hindu be alloAv- ed the franchise, in Canada���������particularly those'-who are:'now������ resident' in . Canada. .< In -an "interview, -with Premier King it is stated that he refused.to grant the request of Mr.Sastri, and wrote the following letter on,Sep tember 5th to the representative or' India. . ; .-..", - "In reply-to ,���������,the . representations made by.yoJiat. the interview with my' colleagues 'and.-*myself on Friday of last w^eek'r arid .which were "the subject of further'.conference between us, I -desire.to;,assure you. that, at the earliest favorable moment.'.'the Gov- eminent .will, be,please ,'to invite , the consideration ,of .Parliament .'.to. your request that natives of 'India/resident in Canada/he|" granted a '-Dominion parliamentary i'franchise, on ' terms and conditions identified with those'.whir-h / govern the exercise of that right by Canadian,',c,itizens generally. The subject'., is, necessarily one which Parliament .'alone, can . determine. It will be submitted to -i Parliament for consideration when the franchise ,la\v is urider'revision. "In cqnveying-to the Goverment or India an; expression of the attitude of the Government of Canada in this matter, iwe hope that you ��������� will' not fail to make it clear, that...at the���������pres- ent time1, in eight of the nine provinces of^which our Dominion is composed, trie Federal franchise is granted to najives.of. India .resident in Canada ,on terms .which are identical with those applicable generally to Canadian citizens." This paper believes that the Hindu residentJ<of Canada should be. given the franchise on condition that.he comply with those regulations .that Canadian citizenship demands. Whar would ybu think of a Canadian applying in the Uunited States who refused to take off .his hat and sing the national::anthem, the .Star Spangled Banner;/what .would you think of an Australian, who, wished to , become a citizen of Canada who while singing God Save the King, refused to also sing the^'Ganadian Maple Leaf Forever; or'.'an American citizen applying to become a Canadian citizen who refused to take off .his hat and participate in ;the.singing of God Save tho King. These requirements are necessary to good citizenship and the individual's personal views must be sunk in order1 that he may assimilate with the people or the country whicn he wishes to'adopt as his own. That is one reason why the Oriental cannot become a real citizen of Canada���������because he cannot lay aside his ideas formulated in his native land. Among the requirements when v. Hindu'asks for citizenship enters the question of jreligion. The British Empire w!as founded on the Christian religion. ���������!, The f-ollow'er of Mohammed or Budda,cannot understand the principles of the Canadian government unless he changes (his religion. The question i of freedom of speech, the question ,x>f freedom of ' expression and the customs-of the country all come under this head. All these are dear to the true Canadian. Some of the Hindu customs, are directly opposite to;.that of Canadianism. When a Hindu ienters his place of worship bis religion'requires-that'instead of In this connection, the Hindu is .not the only one who should be made . to comply with the laws;and customs oj^ the country, while in Canada.t The-question of the franchse to.the Hindu will-come before, the Canadian parliament.

DOLLAR TS AT DISCOUNT IX CANADA Montreal.���������The United States dollar is being quoted at a discount of one-ruarter of one per cent. here. This is the first time in seven years the United States dollar has sold for less than par here. It is said in financial circles that on a very large amount, say $200,000, one-half of one per cent, .discount will be demanded here. Various reasons are offered as the cause is discontent, but the one which is mostly, justified, according to banking officials and financiers, Is general prosperity in Canada. It was thought that the market had been engineered and the American dollar forced below par, but this is refuted by exchange brokers as being an impossibility owing to the strength, of the American banks. It is also said the new American, tariff might have had something to do with the exchange. $500,000 worth of gold was shipped from :New York last week to the Canadian Capital Alex.

Kamloops Is now coming in with the , latter variety which jobs at $2.00 for No. Is.

Wenat- ehee, Keremeos, the Okanagan and the Lower Mainland are the contributors. Pears in the coast section are a fine sample this year. ' Peaches���������Are slightly lower than a week.,ago.

Conversion of Bonds Better Than Expected Contrary to the expectation of the Minister of Finance of Canada, who was of the impression when the Canadian conversion loan was issued this'fall that.about 50 per 'cent, of the bonds would be converted, dealers of this province have announced, that'the privileges of exchanging bonds' is being indulged in to the extent of approximately 85 per cent: of the Canadian 1922 Victory Bond holders. ' , ' There is no indication, however, of what the American holders will do. and as there were large blocks ' of this issue placed on the United,Sta.Les market, the action of these American investor's will, have some effect- on the'final result. - - .. There is outstanding in' Victorys ap proximately ,$178,000,000. which the Minister of .Finance has asked be converted into'-1927's and,1932's, taxable bearing 5 1-2 per cent. Canadian dealers believe that with exchange at a position* near par there /would be no object in the American .market doing other than converting to tlie.new issue. In a few instances Washington and Oregon buyers have already sent in their, bonds, while United 'States buyers of 1922's "for conversion purposes are credited- witli sending up the price of this issue to 1-4 above par.

The' bonds never left the country, as they were sold back to the Royal Financial Corporation'.of Vancouver and are being marketed in Canada. The bond market in general is strong all across Canada.

R. GOSLING Box 31 , - Abbotsford, B. C All Work Guaranteed One of the widely read and commented articles during the past week has been our "Why not Okan- agari Peaches For Coast Towns." Men have called al thisoffice to thank us for having called attention to the matter so forcibly, and hoped that a series of articles and,opinions would follow along the same lines. The state of,things complained of are actual facts. Fruits areibeing imported into Canada, and'British Columbia in particular, while at the same time our own fruit, "Grown in B. C." lies rotting on the ground. On Vancou ver Island pears ar,e being fed to pigs and cattle. While at the same time the people of the ci ties are yearning for pears. There are pears rotting in the Fraser Valley, yet the deal handed out when pears are shipped to Vancouver is not all that is desired on th,e part of the grower.. , There is no way of checking up the price actually ohKiihed by, the wholesa Ier. A,grower must gef moie than $1.25 per box for his pears, in order to make , enough to buy groceries for the winter. In conversation with one old timer, who has lived in IhejStates for the greater part of his life, he stated that lie had heard time without number Americans say that they would riever permit Canada to make a dumping ., gisound of the United States. Yet American fruit is be- iing brought into,and sold in B. C. while our own is rotting on the ground. You can't blame the American for -finding a market for his produce, but the man who Is to blame is the wholesaler on Water Street in Vancouver. He imports the fruit and sells it. Go into the stores of the Fraser Valley and you will find this fruit on exhibit for sale, to the detriment of the���������" "Grown in B. C." fruit.! Why? Because the surplus fruit of the U. % can be shipped in and sold,for a few cents less. Water Street is looking at the narrow profits and immediate, results, rather than the prosperity of the province of B. C. This is on a par with the business man these days who permits his purchaser to carry around thousands of dollars in his pocket, paying cash to avoid fhe stamp tax. Patriotic too you say! / The people are taking this matter in tfyeir own hands and are buying where they can buy. the cheapest, irrespective of where that may be. * Tlie*wholesalers who sell fruit also sell groceries, and in the opinion of one man. who called and was very enthusiastic about the question, evidently having studied it, besides having had his fingers bitten, thought the merchants of the Fr;;ser Valley would be perfectly justified in telling the wholesalers to sell their groceries where they bought their fruit. His point of view was that the merchants would do a lot to prevent the wholesaler passing over the "Grown in B. C." product. It is a bad state of affairs when the B. C. market is made the dumping ground for inferior fruit while B. C; fruit lies rotting on the ground. Are we patriotic enough to rise ancl demand that the wholesalers shall and must supply us with the B. C. product for our own consumption? It amounts to this that eveiything possible should be done to help the B. C. producer. He is the backbone of the country. He pays the taxes that help the nation to pay its obligations. These obligations at the present time are heavy. ' Money sent to the ITnited States for fruit remains in that country to help carrvon* growing richer and richer year by year. Don't forget the fact that it is only recently that Canadian money was at par value; only recently that $500,- 000 was the first shipment of gold from the United States to Canada for many years. We all had to pay uV exhorbitant discount, and often have had our money hurled back at us as being 'no good.' The Canadian producer's friend should be the man or firm that sells the "Grown in B.C." product. It is just as absolut- ���������le.y necessary for the B. C. people to buy the "Grown in B.C." product as it is for B. G. people to buy the "Made in B. C." product, and the sooner all realize this the sooner will we become a prosperous people and enjoy the rich heritage that we of this province claim is ours, Advertisements under the above heading cost 25 cents per issue.
