ORANBROOK, B. 0. SATURDAY MORNING JULY 11, 1914. Masonic Lodge at Windermere A fraternal visit was paid by a representative group of tho members ill Oranbrook Lodge of A. P. & A. M. to Uie Columbia Lodge at Windermere last week-end. The party consisted of Mesdaines Wilson, Crun- ston, Burton and McKowan and Messrs. W. H. Wilson, L. J. Cranston, WSbBter Burton, Hnrry McKowan, Walter Halsall, Jack Martin, Harry Spence, Harry Bnntleld, Wm. MacDonald, Arthur Shankland, R.I). Cameron, W. S. Santo, Bert Carter and Dr. Miles. The visitors were run out nnd bnck in the cars of Messrs. W. H. Wilson, Wefcpter Burton, Wm. MacDonald and W. S. Santo. The services of Christian Troyer, a veteran actor of Panklnml Bros., were secured and whose convocations kept the party In roars of laughter all Saturday afternoon. Windermere lodge was visited on Saturday when the second degree was put on and the usual business of t-he lodge conducted. A sumptuous banquet waa afterwards partaken of, Lhe rest of the evening passing mont pleasantly in song, toast, speech and story. After the parting, tho brethren felt that Windermere lodge had attempted to lienor their guests with their best and had succeeded admirably. Owing to a wash-out at the junction of the roads at Dutch Creek It was impossible to make communication with Cranbrook on Sunday and although many would have liked to bave been in the city on Mondny they had perforce to remain till the bridge was safe to cross. The people In the whole district seemed to vie with one another in showing kindness to thoir visitors, notably Mr. Barry who placed his fine Packard card (in charge of the irresistible Godfrey Vigne) at their entire service, and Mr, Stark, the genial host of the Invermwe Hotel who mode everything so comfortable and pleasant during the unexpected sojourn at his beautiful lionteltry. The beauty and grandeur of tbe scenery in the lake district cannot be conveyed ln a few words, nor even a few chapters, on paper. It has to he seen and once is not enough. It Is too great and grand and beautiful to fully appreciate in one short visit. Some of the places visited were Sinclair Hot Springs, Fairmont Hot Springs, Geo. Johnston's ranch ' (where Jack Martin and Harry Ban-' field ate up all his strawberries, To-' by Creek, and Premier Lake. Old [ Cranbrook friends were seen at Ca nnl Flats where Kite Small is running an up-to-date hotel and Fred Small hnsl a lino general Btore, The return to the city was made on Monday in ideal weather, the sun shining ovory minute of the day and thu dust on the roads having heen lllld by tlu rain of Saturday and Sunday.

In a number of constituencies the Liberals supported independent candidates. In Winnipog the Socialists had candidates in every city riding; outside of Winnipeg the contest was left to the nominees of the Conservative and Liberal parties. Elections were deferred in three constituencies, La Pas, Churchill-Nelson nnd Grand Rapids. At Iberville Amte Bernard, Conser- votive, was elected by acclamation. Winnipeg city elected Independent nnd Socialist candidates. Up to this time of going to press the election stood 27 Conservatives, and 21 Liberals. Indians in Trouble A report received at Cranbrook from Windsrmere is to the effect that a half-breed named Domlnick Nicholas, while beating his borse on tbe Indian reserve, ail miles south of Windermere, was remonstrated with by a Kootenay Indian named Honest Sam. The half-breed Domlnick is alleged to have hit Sam on head with a stick, instantly killing him. Domlnick has taken to the mountains and is being sought by Indian and provincial police. He is young, strong and hot-headed and may possibly put up a hard fight before being captured. Passing of Jos. Chamberlain London, July 3.—Rt. Hon. Joseph Chamberlain died here last night. His death, which removes one of tbe most striking figures of British politics ln the past generation, came as a surprise, as the condition of his health was not publicly known to bc any worse tban at any time in the last two or three years. Mrs. Chamberlain, who never left her husband's side since ho was stricken with paralysis seven years ago,' and his son, Austin Chamberlain, were with Mr. Chamberlain when death occurred at 10.30 o'clock last night at his London residence. Thc event cast a gloom over the London season, which wns at its height. Mr. Chamberlain's Inst public appearance was at a garden party on the grounds of his Birmingham home on May li lust, when, with his wife and son, he received severnl hundred constituents. Mr. Chamberlain wnn wheeled out on the lawn in a chair and appeared teeblo when he lifted hla hat to friends and neighbors in acknowledgment of their salutes. The cause of Mr. Chamberlain's death waa announced as heart failure. Although he had heen gradually sinking since Tuesday, members of the family had preferred his condition should not become publicly known. A singular circumstance about Mr. Chamberlain's death is that whilo the event occurred In London as early aa 10.30 o'clock laat night, the news only becamo generally known this morning. POSSIBLE CONSEQUENCES. Speculation Is rife today ns to how far the passing away of the great Imperialist will affect the pnrty which he once commanded with such Immense influcncn. Mature, nonpartisan opinion seems tn hold thut Mr. Chamberlain's death may place the tariff reform Unionists in the shadow. It Is often asserted In reliable quarters that their present Influence in the party councils is chief ly due to the fact that they still succeed in maintaining a substantial hold on the party's purse strings, but that otherwise the extreme tariff is a purely negligible factor. Mr. chamberlain's death will certainly have little or no effect either way upon the existing Irish situation. There are those who are of the belief that his death may result in a partial break-up of the overpowering domination which "Joe" Chamberlain and his family have exercised in Birmingham for nearly forty years past. One of Mr. Chamberlain's earliest lieutenants in Birmingham, Sir Benjamin Stone, died only yesterday. Jesse rollings, another lifelong political ally, recently resigned. The course of nature haa Inexorably thinned the ranks of the solid band which made tho name of Birmingham synonymous with that of Chamberlain. Mr. John Redmond said today: "Although Ireland in tbe past has had bitter memories of Mr. Chamberlain's career, the Irish people are generous and those hitter memories arc long forgotten. He was a great man." PREMIER'S TRIBUTE. Sir Richard McBrlde, on being apprised yesterday morning by the Colonist of the death of Mr. Chamberlain, expressed the keenest sorrow at the news, saying: "I am suro I but voice the sentiment of the whole of British Columhla whi>n I say that the news of the death of the Ht. Hon. Joseph ('hum- herlain occasions the most profi .mil regret. "Whli' It hns long hem felt that we could never hopo to see Mr.Chamberlain back In public life again, yet the punning of so eminent a statesman constitutes a real loss to the Empire.

Meeting Z;^J Requisition Presented to Mr. A. E. Watts For Federal Honors On Thursday evening a mooting of the Central Cistrict Conservative Association was held in the committee rooms on Hanson avenue. After the general routine business was completed Mr. J. P. Fink introduced the question of forming a Fed- oral Oonseryatlve Aasoclation covering the new district brought Into existence under tbe new Re-dlstributlon Act, and a committee for tbat purpose was appointed. Mr. Fink also took up the mattor of tbe requisition recently presented to Mr. A. E. Watts of Wattsburg to stand as a candidate for the Federal House, and stated that it was up to the people of this district to select a local man, if possible, to represent them at Ottawa and he was pleased to move a resolution endorsing the steps already taken by a large number of leading citizens of the city and district. Mr. Fink's resolution was seconded by Mr. T. Caven, the local member of the Provincial House, who stated: "That a strong and more determined advocate than Mr. Watts of the policy they wished to follow in this riding it would be difficult to find." The above resolution was heartily endorsed by the meeting. Mr. Watts being presented replied very appropriately and outlined the policy he wished to see carried out and concluded by thanking the Association for tbe confidence implied in their endorsement of the resolution as moved by MessrB. Fink and Caven. The requisition referred to in Mr. Fink's resolution reads as follows: A. E. Watts, Esq., Wattsburg, B, C. "Dear Sir: "We, the undersigned, realizing the need of a representative in Parliament who can protect antl watch the great and Important Industries of our district, and appreciating your efforts during the past years in writing, speaking, and working to secure much-needed legislation for the encouragement and protection ot such industries, on tbe prosperity of which so many depend tor a livelihood, "We believe, if elected to the Dominion Parliament, you could accomplish great good tor our district; we therefore request that you permit your name to stand as a candidate in tbe forthcoming election. Should you consent, we hereby pledge you our support and influence, (Signed) Signatures of Leading citizens and residents of tbe district. REPLY OF MR. WATTS ON BEING PRESENTED WITH THE REQUISITION. On Monday the 6th inst., a large delegation of the Influential residents of the District waited uuon Mr. A.E. Watts and presented him with the above requisition fully signed and In reply thereto he said: '^Gentlemen: In reply to the requisition signed by such influential citizens, I should lack human feeling it I failed to appreciate the high honor you wish to bestow upon me. Your requisition I take as a command, that I attempt to fulfill a duty for the good of the community, tf the people wish it, I wlll obey tbe command. It must be by the free wlll ot the people, 1 have no money with which to buy votes nor will I bo a party to asking friends to supply the means to intlucncco the unwilling. All f can oiler aro the last few yi ars of life and the uso of the abilities Providence bus given ,me, but all I have is at your command. I will give all my time, energy and ability ln every way, but moro than that 1 am unable to do, or would 1 do it, and bo help to win tbo honor you wish to bestow upon mc. Ono of the speakers aaked me to indicate what lino of action I would take If elected regarding the lumber Industry. Some of the speakers have criticized thc work or wbat they term lack of interest of former representatives who after election toll us to bc quiet and behave ourselves no matter how distressed or hungry the populace may bo. In reply I may say that I do not claim to have the capacity or ability to do that which others could not do. I have shown you the voluminous correspondence between myself and the politicians and bankers of Canada and by that the great difficulties can be seen. However, I will explain what I advise and would work for and that Is simply that British Columbia, being greatly intereat ln the production of lumber, should work in unison with the produoers of food stuffs (the flrst necessity of the human family), the producers of which need protection and more than that, paternalism or Governmental assistance along the lines of those wblch made once poor but now prosperous Dontnaifi famous. Wc must not forgot that in order to obtain consideration from othera we must give the same to them. This fact is realized by Conservatives, Liberals and Socialists and it gives me the keenest pleasure to see that prominent members of the three parties have joined in signing tbe requisition, and all agree that tljis first duty of politicians is to protect Canadian industries and first and foremost the producers of the means of existence, if tbey are not prosperous all other industries must suffer; and whether I am Bent to Parliament or not I shall continue to urge the authorities to borrow, say, one hundred million dollars for an experiment and to loan the money at a low rate ol Interest to the farmers for the purpose of buying improved stock of all kinds, to build dairies, elevators, and do all thinga in a practical way to assist the really honest workers to avoid paying exorbitant interest for financial accommodation to carry on the most important business In the world—the production of food—and thereby supply the teeming population of tbe cities with cheaper means of existence. Also to provide work for many by grinding wheat into flour instead ot shipping the raw product, and keep tbe residue at home to feed animals to provide cheaper meat to assist the real producers ol wealth and thereby attract other industries. HELP THE FARMER FIRST, OTHER INDUSTRIES WILL FOLLOW Next, work in unison with the farmers, the producers, lumber manufacturers to undertake to supply their product at a price to be regulated by the Government giving the manufacturers only a fair profit in their work and investment, and also limit the retailer as to his profit, then BBk the farmers to assist the lumber producer, to assist thom ln keeping the lumber trade for Canadians by the imposition of a duty jirnt enough to allow of a fair pro lit for capital Invested and GOOD WAGES .FOR THE MEN EMPLOYED. No class appreciates the exhibition of fellow-feeling and needs the paternal cars of the Government more than the hard working farmer and his family, even from a selfish point of view it is to our own intereat to seen that thoy get fair play. It Is not my wish to embarrass nor place our Government in a dilemma, but rather to assist in winning the support and approval of those who will shortly be the rulers of begin sinking a well by the end of this week about a mile north of the welt that was sunk Inst fall, and where th.' largest oil seepages take place. In addition to the Flathead Petroleum holdings, a large number of Cranbrook people have acquired extensive leases and it is said tlat several well will be started as sojii as the machinery can be placed pany; there is therefore no responsi-1thp frroun^1 billty on the part of the O.P.R, in this connection, and I mad add that the company had provided bomes for its workmen immediately adjacent to the mine. I do not think that there Local men, also interested in e Alberta fields, have acquired over 12,800 acres In the Flathead, wli-re it is almost certain that oil in 'HV- iug quantities will he found. Is Paternalism Advisable? Specially Contributed by J. F. A great deal has already been writ- an isolated case. There must be doz- ten and, before the last word has;ens and dozens of such enterprises been spoken, a great deal more will undoubtedly be written on the subject tbat Mr. Watts so ably touched upon in our last week's issue—"Paternalism" and the relationship between Government and Agriculturist. There are many diversities of opinion expressed by men competent and capable to deal with tbis question; but as regards the fundamental rule that all, or tbe greater part, of country's welfare and prosperity depends on and follows in the train of its agricultural achievements, there can be no two contrary opinioni He would indeed be a rash man who would deliberately deny that tbe agricultural progress of a country wns inseparably bound up with and regulated ln the major part by the attitude of its Government towards the agricultural portion of its community. A study of the comparative histories of the younger Colonies of the British Empire will amply demonstrate the truth of this assertion. In Australia each successive Government during the past few decades has added to and amplified the legislation of its predecessors in this connection, and though the work of a preceding Government has often been altered, or even totally abrogated, by a lat- party in power, only one idea, only one motive, has prompted them all impartially—that of increasing nnd foHtcring its agricultural possibilities and riches. Not only is the net tier now encouraged and Invited to settle and special and great facilities offered bim in getting to and locating in the country but special officers of the Govern nwn t are ap- fostered in infancy by a paternal Government have thrived and, in return, amply repaid their benefactors. The agriculturist of New Zealand is in very much the Bame enviable position, fhe land tenure scheme there is us simple in its nature as It Ib efficient in its results, Thc principle is just this: No occupation, no title! The settler applies for his chosen site, and, with comparatively little cost, nay! with sometimes a special grant, he can start his farming operations. Whilst he is in actual and continuous occupation of hiH ground bis title is indefeasible and he can deal with his land in exactly tbe same manner, and h ■ has precisely the same rights and privileges in regard thereto, as a man with full freehold title elsewhere, He can dispose of it by sale or by will but bis successor in tith is, of course, subject to the same conditions as regards occupancy. The only condition precedent is personal occupation. In this manner is the speculator in farming- lands effectually dealt witb. It will occur to some that the nature of this title would debar the holder from raising loans thereon. But this is where the Government exercises that far-seeing Paternalism referred to by Mr. Watts. The Government has a special reserve fund which, subject to certain conditions, to all intents and purposes lieB at the request and disposal of the settler. This fund is dedicated to the granting of loans to settlers at a nominal rate Qt interest, the amount of such loans being regulated and calculated on the ratio of the valUS of Improvements ef- polnted whose sole work is to visit fected on the land. Furthermore the and to report in detail on tne perse- agricultural community Is bound to- vtrance anil progress of every indi- gether by powerful co-op'native or vtdUat arttler, and, according to associative ties nud the latest sott- tliese r 'ports, monetary ami other facilities are readily obtainable, Furthermore, the settler Ih encouraged to make applications for such fa dUtlm. We need not here point out tlu* position Austrnllu now holds in the agricu'tural and produce worlds. In other branches of enterprise the same conditionn obtain, find within the personal knowledge associative ties and the latest ler is as certain of a market for his prpduce as the oldest pioneer, and furthermore these associations if not entirely under Government control work hand in hand with tho Govern ment and are carefully fostered and encouraged by every possible means. In Houth Africa-at nny rate up to it is the present—the paternalism of the of tbo .Government of the Union hns been writer that tn at leant one case Of,largely of a negative, but none the private enterprise thn Government less (nr-soolng kind. They have plnc- went out of its way to make tbat ,>d a han upon tbe immigrant with enterprise a surcesH by granting Just little or no capital. It has been very such facilities as have Im-ii mention- wisely realized by the Government ed'above, And this is by no means. (Continued on Page 2.)

No. 2$. The resolution submitted on Thursday evening last at the meeting of the Central District Conservative Association, to which reference is made olsewhere in this issue, Ib one that cannot fail to arouse a very considerable interest among all sections o! our growing community.

If this remarkable unanimity is an expression of confidence in Mr. Watts, it is likewise significant of a new spirit at work in the community, a spirit that is abroad the world over finding varying expression under different environments. This is the spirit that calls aloud for men to lead us —men distinguished from professional politicians, men whose integrity of character and sheer rugged honesty of purpose iB beyond question.

The reason of this is owing to some kind of red tape or a Blight technicality as to the security given by the City in consideration of the loan of the money borrowed which has since been found to be deficient by the company's representatives in Toronto. In bringing tbis Bylaw before the people for the second time it Is only witb the intention of securing the ratepayers' approval to adding the security of the City to the papers necessary for obtaining this loan as an extra guarantee of good will. This proceeding is coming up every day of the week in the ordinary business affairs of any city; every business man cial merely, hut moral also, .since ev- knows this, and it is to be hoped that ery great question ia at root a mor- on the 23rd of this month the rate payers will go to tbe polls and support the Council in this aa well as they did in the original vote. • • ■ • The poor Mayor and aldermen are moru to be pitied than envied for the work they are doing these hot days.

In another column of this issue will be found a communication received in answer to the one we published last week from the pen of A. E. Watts.

The land was good, they said, but thc want uf irrigation waa thc cause absolutely of tholr bad crops. For the laBt two or thrae yeara Ihcy had been getting disheartened with thc prospects and so they lit Inst decided to look for freBh llelds.

(Continued from Page 1.) that there were many difficulties to be overcome, difficulties ol labor, of marketing and of Irrigation, difficulties peculiar to the country, whic militate tremendously against the small bolder and capitalist and until the anticipated schemes of irrigation and co-operative control have been perfected they refuse to harbor the struggling settler. And, under all circumstances, rightlyl But meanwhile a sum of (15,000,000 has been, cr will shortly be, appropriated to several comprehensive schemes which will make possible the success ol small holders and capitalists. Centred control nnd irrigation schemes in conjunction with increased facilities for marketing are the basic principles involved. Now British Columbia has none ol the difficulties to contend with that Australia, and more especially Soutb Africa, (with its droughts, It's labour troubles, its black problem, Its plagues) has fought against and conquered. To Its hand lies a fair country surrounded by conditions pre-eminently favourable to its becoming one of the foremost amongst the agricultural countries of the world. Its progress cannot be retarded by such obstacles, internal and external, as beset some other countries. Only—the country aB a whole muat look on the whole question broadly, with eyes undimmed by the lust of personal advantage and gain; with brains unclouded by party factions, and, other facts and fancies notwithstanding it must press forward undeterred and resolute towards that certain goal which alone can guarantee the mature and solid prosperity tbat Ib this country's due. And the quickest route toward that prosperity is a thoroughly impartial and broad-minded paternalism not (as has so frequently been the caso during tbe tenancy of office ol the government ot years past) a blgotted and partial heaping of Indulgences on a- favoured few. It Ib of course tn view of the space nt my disposal and tbe hugs scope of the question, impossible for me here to give full details of the methods and particulars of procedure adopted In the several colonies I have mentioned hut I hope at a later date to review thc question from a comparative standpoint in fuller detail. What We Need Throughout the Whole Dominion Is Being Done! In British Columbia In British Columbln a Provincial Hnyiil Commission him reported in favour ot mortgage loans to (arm- wa. It la suggested that a credit commission should lie created, with power to borrow money bv the issue of stock or debentures to run (or 3G| years and bearing Interest at 4 per cent. The money thus obtained would be loaned to (armors [or permanent Improvements and productive undertakings. There would bo inquiry into the character of applicants nnd tho land to be mortgaged, It is suggested that no loan Bhould exceed GO per cent, of the value of the land held as security, that not less than 1250 nor more than $10,000 should lie loaned to any (armor, nnd that applicants for Bums of $2,oni) and under should havo priority. Tli' Com- mission also advocates co oparntlon in marketing. In contrast with ttio opinion of pralrlo grain growers It argues that the Customs duties on agricultural products aro necossrtry nml reasonable. Finally, the organisation of a news sorvlco to collont ami disseminate information covering supply ami demand in tho produ •■ mai'.ets is recommended.

Immigration from the Old Country to Tasmania Tasmania will in course of time support a far larger population than at present. While the prosperous condition of tbe mainland States has to some extent diverted attention •elsewhere In late years, such a state of affairs cannot be permanent. A system of nominated immigration is in force, under which the State will contribute £9 towards a woman's (are, £6 (or a man, and £4 10s. for a child .under 12 years of age. No male immigrant, married woman or widow must be over 45 years of age, nor any single woman over 35 years.

Nominees must be approved hy the Agent-General. Up to the end of 1910 a total of 21,691) emigrants to Tasmania had received assistance.

Discusses Problem of Asiatic Menace The Asiatic menace was referred to in a Btirrlng speech delivered l>y Sir inn Hamilton. Inspector-General of the overseas forces, at the civic reception tendered to him in thc Auckland Town Hall, says The Auckland Weekly News. The general aald that he had come to a great city nnd to the Town Hall where he had heen feted and complimented. "I wish under such circumstances," he continued, "to endeavor to make some return (or your great kinrinosB. In thinking ov- the question this morning it struck me that ln so great a city I might take this opportunity to answer the question which has both directly and indirectly heen asked of me throughout my tour, from south to north. This question was: Why, when we are expecting the millennium, do we tind practical and prosperous countries like Australia and Now Zealand furbishing up their nrmor of defence? I would l?:e to answer that question, not in the usual obvious way, but rather in the abstract way." The general than touched briefly j upon the obvious rensons. "The flrst of tbe obvious reasons," he said, "Is , tbe shrinkage of distance, through the advent of electricity, steamships, | aeroplanes, nnd high explosives (so high that a shot from a M In gun could kill a man twenty miles away). These things, no doubt, have brought remote dangers nearer, "Thon," he continued, "there ls the obvious reason that in the Pacitic great nations have either risen in the last 100 years or else old nations are in a wonderful manner showing signs of marvelous energy. Even as volcanoes, long quiescent, break again into activity with disturbing sounds, so it is with some of the old nations of the Pacific. MEETING GROUND OP CONTINENTS "The third obvious reason is that thc Pacific, in spite of its peaceful name, is more stormy than other distant oceans. While we would all deplore such a contingency, it Is conceivable that, apart from the storms of nature, there may be greater and more terrible convulsions than ever in the past. That is to say the Pacific la the meeting ground, not of nations but of continents. Here it may be decided whether Asiatics or Europeans are going to guide the destinies of this planet. These are more or less obvious reasons, but tbere are others which I believe to be real and true, although they are more or less under the surface. "Terrible things, for instance," he continued, "are going on in the Malay States. Here can be seen a fine people going under before tbe interests of low-class materialists—Chinese and coolieB, ■ brought into to work for low wages. When I visited China two years ago I saw on every side that the country was waking up. Old moral restraints had gone. I saw a modernized Chinaman scratching his name with a nail upon the Temple of Heaven—a temple until recently bo sacred that the Emperor alone might approach it, and thnt only once a year. This is but an illustration to show tbe change from which is evolving chaos and confusion such as existed at the time of the French Revolution, from which Napoleon arose. CHANGE OK A FEW YEARS. "In our own nation," he continued "there are signs of danger to the white race from the existence of the materialistic factor. In l.adyamttb during the Boer war the main street was a thoroughfare containing prosperous European shopkeepers. What a change bad been wrought when I went there two yenrs ago to take Sir George White's place as president of Ladysmith. The shopkeepers had vanished and their places had been taken by hunyahs and coolies, who exist on a couple of meals of rice a day. While these coolies have no constructive or progressive talent, they have the knack of bundling and accumulating money to a nicety. This, then, is the point of the story. This is the reason why in the time of progress and prosperity, Australia and New Zealand are instinctively facing the necessity of preparing for defence. If people with high ideals and standards are forced to live cheek by jowl with people of low standards and low Ideals they must either become slave-drivers or sink to the level of those by whom thoy are surrounded, and thus he beaten. "Of course," concluded the general, "New Zealand ls still a long way ofl from this danger, but Australia is not so far off. When I look at tho map It seems to me that New Zealand occupies the position of a llttlo Bister, small In Blue, but eager, hanging behind the skirts of her big fat sister -Australia. If dangor threatens Australia I feel porfectly confident that Now Zealand would always bc ready to lend a hand to her bigger slater in the Antipodes."

Mr. Chamberlain wan the pioneer in Great Britain of tariff reform, aud the great advocate of Imperialism.

If a merchant or a manufacturer is willing to spend good money for advertising, to ask you to try his store or his product, it stands to reason that he must have something worth offering. Otherwise you would not go back, or you would not again purchase the product, and the first sale would be the last. In that case advertising would NOT pay. It only pays when it brings continuous patronage, and to do that there mutt be reil value tfiven. That is the reason advertised stores or products are almost invariably good. It will pay you to p.itroui/e the advertisers. glea that Mr. Chamberlain took office In tbe Cabinet as Colonial Secretary. That his influence in this position was most marked and speedily attracted the attention of the world bas already been stated. His well- known Imperialism stimulated, in England, interest in tbe colonies, and even his opponents admitted that he stirred Imperial feelings and greater loyalty to the colonies themselves. THE SOUTH AFRICAN WAR As Colonial Secretary, Mr. Chamberlain's remarkable powers were severely tested by South Africa—the chain of strenuous events beginning with Jameson's hare-brained raid, and ending wben Lord Kitchener had worn down the stubborn Boer resistance, with the Treaty of Vereenlg- ing—but he stood the test. His enemies, too, assailed him as being the droit tool of the Rand gold miners, and his course towards the Afrikanders was a leading issue in the ampaign of 1900 and during 1901. But he was tbe object of great popular demonstrations before his visit to South Africa late in 1902 on a mission of conciliation and observation and also on his return enrly in 1903.

Tt was in May and at Birmingham that he announced his new policy, and finding, in September, that his party was not ready for so radical a cbanire, he resigned to devote himself to popularising his doctrines. He fought the rause with a genius, eloquence, energy and organization I never equalled In any previous mo- iment of his career, but his party j wavered, and went down to defeat in the election of 190G. The une bright spot for tbe Unionist party, during these dark days, was Uirmingham and vicinity, where Mr. Chamberlain carried his candidates to victory.

The German Menace A WARNING NOTE. The "National Review" for June contains an article entitled "(ier many and Ourselves," from thc pen of Oapt. Bertrand Stewart, who was for two years the inmate of a Gorman prison, and writes from personal experience. His trial and oonvlction, which raised a storm at tho time, will bo remembered hy many, "Let us," he writes, "understand Germany's position. "Rhe has learnt that the pulley of open hostility to Kngland at all times does not pay, because it Keeps us tno much on tho qui vivo, and because it strengthens the hands of those who urge that lull preparations should be made to meet nny German act of agression. Hence a show of friendliness hns been assumed In the hope that sho may obtain concessions from ua, and thnt the British nation, with its proverbially short memory, will he lulled into a feeling of false security. But what Is really her present position as regards ourselves? There have been pleasant speeches by the German ambassador. But has there boen a reduction of one soldier or one sailor as a proof of thia friendliness? On the contrary! If thc change of attitude Indicated a real change of feeling towards England, It should have heen accompanied by at least a decrease in the German navy." After dealing with the hunger for more land which the German Government do their utmost to foster amongst their people, and with the teaching of some ot their leading writers that this land can be most easily obtained from ub by war or threats of war, he adds: "But besides land and money there are things of at least equal value to our people which we should sacrifice were we to give Germany her longed-for opportunity. Those are freedom and the right to Justice on all occasions." He then compares our system of justice with the German. Among many extraordinary details he tells us that a prisoner may be kept six months in a cell waiting lor a "trial timed to suit the "political exigencies of the moment. A penniless 'agent provocateur,' the creature ol the Government—and already convicted ol every sort of crime—may try, but fall, to provoke the commission of some act against the law and yet be the only witness against ths prisoner. This man's perjury, admitted in the secrecy of the Magistrate's room—as the Prosecution is careful to arrange—counts for nothing. Then, worst of all, a prisoner may be tried behind closed doors despite all his protests; lying statements, which the prisoner IB given no chance to deny in public, may he published for political purposes; and a judgment given absolutely contrary to the evidence and admissions ol the Prosecution because it may be politically useful, or an agitation may be in progress lor more ships. "AU this, according to their standard, is justice, and according to tbeir view is right. Ib this, and the Sabre Law exemplified at jZabern, and the treatment of their conquered provinces, a system which the most callous amongst ub would wish to see Imposed on any of our people, whatever their race? "We must realize that the preservation of the priceless blessings of freedom and justice depends on our beeping ourselves strong enough o prevent Germany defeating us and forcing lier system and her 'justice' on our people. "When Germany increases her armaments, we must do likewise. When Germany reduces her armaments, wc can think of doing likewise, but hot till then. "Never must we by any show of friendliness or by any soft words, whoover may ho the spokesman, bo lulled Into a feeling of security. Tho methods of tbe ruling clnss in Germany change, but behind it all, with their ever-Increasing naval anil military forces, tbey always pursue their unaltered aim. Co-operation throughout the Empire, real efficiency in all branches of our defensive Services, and ths readiness of everyone to take his share ln the defence of the Mother Country and the great Dominions can alone bring us security," Fears for Bank Clerk Vancouver, B, C—While thero are no definite clews on which to base their theory, the police fear that C. J. McQueen, a young bank clerk who recently disappeared, may have heen murdered by a gang of Russian bank robbers, McQueen was a teller in tho Union •l)ank here. Last fall he distinguished himself by resisting a bank hold-up at Haselton. Five weeks ago ho disappeared from Vancouver. His accounts are absolutely correct. At the time he dropped from sight Russians suspected of helng implicated In tho northern robbery were tn Vancouvor and the police think they mny hnve killed McQueen because they (enrol ho would identify them.

NATIONAL HERO SERIES" NO. 4 Lord Nelson—Old England's Great Naval Hero WITHOUT Horatio Nelson, England would have been invaded and perhaps conquered by Napoleon. At Trafalgar he smashed forever the Bench Emperor's hope of creating a naval power. Never was man more idolized and beloved—not only by all of England's people who breathlessly awaited news of his telling victories, but by every man of his fleet. A true Anglo-Saxon,he detested tyrannous powers and legislative usurpations of every kind. He was particularly opposed to prohibitive enactments governing die diet of I his men,who,like him,enjoyed Barley-Malt brews, t__\ as their fathers did ___ countless generations before. Good beer, according to Lord Nelson, has ever been good bod. Budweiser Deer for 57 years has been the product of an institution holding the highest ideals known to the ancient art of brewing. The output,due to Quality and Purity, has increased evoy year until 7,500 men - are daily required to keep pace with the public demand. Budweiser sales exceed any other beer by millions of bottles.

The debentures under this by-law were secured by the Water Charges and Revenue of the City. The City Council made an excellent sale of the debentures under this by-law, namely, at 94, but the purchasers require the additional guarantee of the general revenue of the municipality. This in no way increases the taxation required to meet the debenture payments but as the purchasers of the debentures have asked for this additional security, the Council have deemed it prudent to agree with their request and are accordingly submitting a further by-law on the 23rd of July complying with the request of the purchasers who are anxious to take up the bonds on 01 before August ist. A copy of the proposed by-law will be found in this issue.
