DOUKHOBORS DENY VISIDNOFSECT Petition "Parliament Contrail ������������������ dieting Alleged Statement ' of Peter.Veregin Ottawa, Oct. 25.���������The prospect opened.for-Canada^bv- the military service act-is one of prosperity in sured and safeguarded. The object of the act is to reinforoe our men at the-front wbile~keeping in Canada those whose presence here is "re quired in order fhat necessary business may be carried on as well as those whosegoinjgoverseas would lay a heavy burden on the country through tbe^eeds of dependents. No heavy tax on the manpower of the country will be made. The act calls for but 100,000 men, and authorities estimate that there are in the country 400,000 of thefirs| class alone, unmarried men and widowers without children between the ages of 20 and 34, This class may well supply most of those needed. Men in the first class called will be withdrawn for military service only as they are required by the militory situation. The process will be gradual, thus leaving a portion of the men to follow their regular vo cations until such a time as they are required. . ��������� The cost- of the war must be reduced to the minimum by the system which sends out of tbe country only those who can best be spared, from the standpoint of the nation as a whole. General prosperity must also be encouraged by the'safeguard- ing of essential industries and the retention at their work of men whom the highest interests of the country require at home. ' MINISTER OF-MINES ARRIVES IN CITY Hon Martin Burrell, minister of mines in the union government and member for Yale-Cariboo, arrived in the city today from Ottawa. According to the Ottawa dispatches during the past week, Mr. Burrell has been sworn in for so many portfolios in the union government that we have In a letter which has been forwarded to C. J_. Doherty; minister of justice at Ottawa, the Doukhobors of tbe district near Tbrums- and Tarrys petition parliament against the recent statements alleged to have been made, by Peter Veregin, in which it is said thafhe claims there are tvyo sects of Doukhobors. Apparently the point of the petition to the minister of justice is that there are not, according to the interpretation of tbe local party, two sects, but one sect partially divided into three pa'rties���������one under the leadership oi Peter Veregin,a second who reeeive their livelihood by honest toil, and a third who .are in the following petition termed "radical" and who are known as "Svobod- niki." The petition as sent to the minister justice follows: :We, tbe undersigned Doukho e hors, are informing you of th'-i false statement of Peter Veregin which has just appeared in the Canadian press. Peter Veregin, in his peti tion to yon, says there are two sects of Doukhobors, and we do not wonder that what he says is not true, for you can just expect that from him. . "He, with bis con plaining tone, tries to bribe the government of Canada to perpetrate a great crime to Doukhobors; that is, to violate its promise given to .^Doukhobors that they shall'never be conscripted. When Doukobors came to Canada the government gave them a written promise that they should never be conscripted, even if they became British subjects; that is, if they accepted homesteads given by the government. "Peter Veregin says that there are two sects of Doukhobors. This is not true. There is only one sect, but there -are three parties. One party Jives in.the compahy of which Peter Veregiu is president- The second party.lives on the farms and cultivates the land and earns its living by honest labor. This is not against the Doukhobor rpligiou. The third and most radical party is' the 'Svoboduiui.' Their principles are not to kill or ill-use, not only people but also animals, and not to eat any meat or to wear leather boots. "Once as Peter Veregin was riding in a carriage persons of this party stopped him, and accused him of being harsh to the animals. Upon I this Peter Veregin commanded his Veregin wears the boots made from the skin of the animals. But not less percentage of his company secretly eat meat and smoke and chew to baoco. ��������� ' "It-would be better if Peter Veregin smoked and chewed tobacco than to say anything untrue. . ' " 'Not that which entereth into' the mouth defileth the man; but that which-procee'deth ' out of the mouth defileth the man,'said the Christ. ^'Peter Veregin not long ago' sent a; man from his company to tbe other two parties to invite them to come'into his company, but neither went, so he began evil for them. It is not advantageous to Peter Veregin that there are .three parties of Doukhobors-and he knows that his power is coming to an end: When he.loses his power all Doukhobors will live, together again, as they lived before Peter Veregin rose to be their leader. "Peter Veregin calls himself a Christian',' but beats the people himself and commands others to- do it. He often sues people and ruins them That is against the principles of the teachings of Christ and the priori pies of the Doukhobors "We give you our honest word that all said is the precise truth. It is a shame for Peter Veregin, being a millionaire, to send other people to fight and-refusing to go himself. We kindly request you bring this petition before the parliament of Canada. "We are, "W.

The principal task.before the Canadian people today is to do every thing in their power to make the Victory bond issue a success. This is an instance where a man can show his patriotism by investing his money and make a good profit on his investment. A man who visited Spokane the other day says that every other man you meet on the streets there attempts to sell you a Liberty bond. If Canadians ...will pursue the same method in disposing of the Victory bonds, there will be no question regarding the' outcome of the issue. In these days of lightning political changes, he is a wise politician who knows his own party. The Doukhobors' petition to the minister of justice is a queer document. If its publication serves no other purpose, it will at be valuable as an object lesson to Candians in showing them the class of people the men in authority in Russia ha������e "to deal with. ' >...._���������' The bureau of fisheries is urging the use of whale and porpoise meat as human food. It tries to overcome popular prejudices by showing that whales and porpoises are mammals like cattle and sheep; that their flesh is therefore "meat," that is devoid of all fishy taste, and that it is palatable and wholesome, whether fresh, corned or canned. Experiments at Pacific coast eities show that whale meat finds purchsers. Perhaps "Please pass the whale" may yet become a familiar table request. Wh'ile no definite date has yet been set for the federal elections.^ is eerier- ally believed that it will be somewhere around December 17. This will give defeated candidates ample time to recover for their Christmas dinner. It is too early in the campaign for a man to stake bis reputation as a prophet by predicting a victory for either party in the coming election The issues have not yet been sufficiently clearly defined. During the next six weeks a great many political meetings will be held under the name of patriotic gatherings. If Laurier comes out' of Quebec with fifty-five or sixty seats, the balance of tho country, in order to give Borden a victory, will have to go pretty solidly for the union government. A pretty good story comes from Eholt. A Grand Forks man in a little Ford knocked a man down with his car and ran one wheel over one of his shoulder before he could stop. Then, horrified at what be had done, he backed the car up and ran over it again. The victim took the incident as a good joke. If a thing is worth doing at all, it is worth doing well. Political Situation The politicians irrespective of former party affiliations are beginning to figure bow the new arrangement between Borden and his handful of Liberal associates will work out. In the opinion of many it looked at first as if the ground bad been completely cut from under Laurier's feet, but now there appears to be an inclination to revise! that opiuion. It is admitted that' Sir Wilfrid Laurier "will practically make a clean sweep'of ��������� Quebec, and that gives ,the~Liberal party' aJ substantial start in tbe race/ Now, .tbe Liberals in the other provinces; are willing to boost the union govern ment, providing the Conservatives will agree to an arrangement whereby alternate seats will- be" allotted to Liberals- and Conservatives,. share and share alike. This, they, suggest, would eliminate all the recriminations of an eleclionon party lines. Indeed, it would do more, if carried out in every province in the. Domin ion with the exception of Quebec, it would ,, give .the Liberals a' ma jbrity of fifty-five to sixty in the next parliament. Another phase that might be taken into consideration at ,the present time is the high-percentage of men applying for ex emption under the military service act. It looks as if exemption applications would amount to 80 per cent of the 300,000 or more men who will . pass the medical boards. How many of those who are applying for exemptions'will vote for tbe union government? That question is an interesting one and, in the words ;of the scientific lecturer, opens' up a new line of thought.���������Ladysrhit'h Chronicle. ��������� ,."' "- " ''?

Finally, unable to withstand their obtuseness or indifference, she exclaimed: "O dear, I'm so warm in my new ring!" I J 1- < r JJP to date the war has cost Canada about $700,000,000. ' / Canada has spent in Canada over $400,000,000 on her own. account. Canada has spent in Canada on behalf of Great Britain over $300,000,000. What Canada spends for Great. Britain is really loaned to Great Britain and will be repaid or credited to Canada later on. - . Great Britain needs so much ready- cash., to' finance her own expenditures at. home for herself and f or jour Allies that 'she must buy on credit from Canada, arid from every other country where she can ��������� get credit. Of course Great Britain's credit is so good that other countries, in order to get her trade, are quite as willing to give her credit as we are in Canada. Canada wants to help Great Britain not only because Canada wants Britain's trade but because we are Canada and she is Great Britain���������both members of the same great Umpire, kin of our kin, our motherland. For Canada it is both a filial and patriotic duty to supply Great Britain's war needs and remember, her needs are our needs. Also it is in Canada's self-interest to supply those needs and thus keep open a market for our products. v ��������� * * Now, Britain needs our wheat, our cheese, cattle, hogs, and many manufactured articles. Canada also needs many of these things ���������between the two it amounts to more than a million dollars a day in cash. And the producers must be paid in- cash. - Neither Canada nor Great Britain could go to a Canadian farmer and buy his wheat or his cattle on credit. The farmer and all other producers might be ever so willing to give their country credit but they could not do it because they have to pay cash for-wages, ��������� for rent, materials^ etc. /They- must be-paid in cash, or its equivalent. ��������� ' .' So Canada says to Great Britain:���������"I will lend you the-money so that you can pay' cash to Canada's producers for' what you want. ^ . '���������' . "I will borrow this money from our own people just as you borrow money from % your'people. "I will also borrow from the people, of Canada money to pay cash for all the products that Canada, as well as Great Britain, needs in Canada." That is Canada's practical, patriotic part in helping to win the war. Without this credit the Canadian producer could not fell to Great Britain, and without these'Canadian products the war would be prolonged. So it is necessary for Canada to give to Qreat Britain the credit in order that Canada's own producers, who need a market, will have one; and in order that Great Britain which needs the products to win the war, will get them. ��������� * ��������� Now how does Canada get the money by which both Canada and Britain can pay cash for Canada's products? By borrowing it from the people of Canada through the sale of Canada's Victory Bonds to be offered in November. That is why Canada's Victory Bonds are offered to the people���������to raise money to help to finish the war. "Canada must keep her shoulder to the wheel even though it be a chariot of fire," and the way for Canada to keep her shoulder to the wheel is by buying Vara Canada's Victory Bonds Next week this space will tell why Canada raises money by selling Canada's Victory Bonds Iwued by Canada's Victory Ifiaa Committee in co-operation with the Minister of Finance of the Dominion of Canada. ,*��������������� &> r 5 ���������i IV "8 i- I Jt j ��������� I ������ 61 ���������a tarn, THE SUN,.

There are over 1,250 boards throughout the country, each composed of two men, one appointed by the county judge in the district concerned and one selected by a joint committee of Parliament. Being familiar with local conditions where they sit, the members are well-fitted toappreciate such reasons for exemption as are put before them by men called up. Exemption will be granted to those who can establish that it is in the national interest that they remain in civilian life. This is for the Exemption Board to decide after having received full information in each case. The grounds on which exemption may be claimed (which are Bimilar to the grounds recognized in Great Britain and the United States) are as follows:��������� (������) That it is expedient in the national interest that the man should, instead of being employed in Military Service.be engaged in other work in which he is habitually engaged. (6) That it is expedient ini������he national interest that the man should, instead of being employed fn Military Service, be engaged in other work in which he wishes to be engaged and for which he has special qualifications. (������) That it is expedient in the national interest that, instead of being employed in Military Service, he should continue to be educated or trained for any work for which he is then being educated and trained. (d) That serious hardship would ensue if the man were placed on active service, owing to his exceptional financial or business obligations or domestic position. (������)" III health or infirmity. (f) That he conscientiously objects to the undertaking of combatant service and is prohibited from doing to by tenets and articles of faith, in effect on the sixth day of July, 1017, of any o'rennized religious denomination existing and well recognized in Canada at such date, and to which he in good faith belongs. fa) That he should be exempt because disfranchised under the War Time Election Act. No Claim for Exemption should be put forward unless one or other of these grounds in fact exists, and no loyal citizen should assist in, or allow himself to be made a party to, any Claim for Exemption unless thoroughly satisfied that it is made in good faith. Exemption may be applied for by the men selected themselves or by their parents, near relatives or employers. Application for exemption must be made on printed forms to be found at every post office, which are to be filled in and left with the postmaster if exemption is desired. The postmaster will forward the form to a Registrar, who will send it. to the appropriate Exemption Board. In due time, then, the Applicant will get notice as to when he must present his case before the Board.
