LONDON, .Tuly 3.—Viscount Hal- dane delivered the Judgment of the1 privy council this morning in threo Canadian appeals. The result of each case was the dismissal of the appeal. Both In Walker vs. Walker and the attorney general of Manitoba and the Initiative and referendum act, Manitoba appeals, the judical committee expressed regret that appeals had not first been u/rgued before tlie supreme court of Canada, to which It was desirable that topics affecting the constitution of Canada should be lul.en hefore appealing to London. The committee attaches much importance to the experience and learning of the judges of that court. In the ease of Walker vs. Walker, the privy council decided that Ihe English divorce act of 1857 is part of the substantive law of Manitoba. Tl.i.,lwn' LONDON, July 3.—Tho dirigible U- 34, communicating with the air ministry via Sl. Johns and Clifden, gave its position as latitude r»_..30 north: longitude 37.30 west at noon, Greenwich mean time. The dirigible has expended 1554 gallons of fuel, leaving 3354 gallons. It has thus used a littio more than one gallon to the mile. A wireless set, called Tpye'lo. had been slightly out of order, but was adjusted and Is working satisfactorily. This did not mean that the dirigible had been deprived of communication, as she has two oilier sets of shorter wave lengths.

JOHNS, Nfld., July 3.—The British dirigible R-34 was about 400 miles northeast of St. Johns at 1:10 Greenwich time, according king's bench act, 1903, tn the absence of tho words limiting jurisdiction was rightly held hy the court of appeals of the province to have jurisdiction as contended by respondent, lt was agreed that nothing should bo said about coats. The case of Board vs. Hoard and tho attorney general, the committee were of the opinion that the effect of the Dominion act, 1886, makes the English law of divorce Of 1367 applicable to tho northwest territories us Well as Alberta. Had it been intended to exclude jurisdiction in divorce it would have been necessary lo have said so. The committee derived much assistance from the admirable opinion! of Justice Stuart of the supreme court. The committee entertains no doubts as to the correctness of their decision. In the matter of the initiative and referendum act of Manitoba, the committee hold that each province retains independence and autonomy directly under the crown as the head. The lieutenant-governor, as a representative of the sovereign, is a part of the legislature. The language of the act in Question cannot be construed other than as Intended and would otherwise seriously affect the position of the lieutenant-governor as an intogral part and detract from (Continued on Page Two) British naval officers said the craft would not pas's over this city tomorrow morning, unless she alters considerably her present course, which would carry her well north of here, it was said that If she followed hoi; present course she would probably pass over Bona Vislu bay and diagonally over Newfoundland to ci/Ju.ne (bay, on the south coast.

EDMONTON, July 3.—Crop reports from the northern part of the province would Indicate that things are still in very good condition. From Edmonton to Dldsbury a CO per cent crop is anticipated. That condition it is believed, obtains for some distance west and east of the Calgary and Edmonton line. South uf that and along the eastern border of the province It has been exceedingly dry. High winds along with tho drouth have cut the oro'p iu (wo. Gne particularly bright spot Is throughout the north country, where reports show that sufficient rain has fallen in most localities lo make the prospects look nt present like a full crop. This bright spot, the Peace Ulver, hns been making good progress, due to good seeding, strong gernilnu- lieu and a sufficient supply of moisture. Close In to Edmonton, along tho north side of the Saskatchewan river for a distance of .3 miles, going practically as far north as Pultun, crop conditions are very good. In the vicinity of Myrtle Creek and Bear Creek Wheat Is two and a half feet high and nicely headed out. With fine weather this wheat will be ready to cut In two weeks and unless hit by hail, will yield nn excellent crop, In some seet.ons more moisture would have Improved crops, but everywhere the yield would be satisfactory and in some places, as for example the sections mentioned, conditions were away above average.

OTTAWA, July 3.—Discussion of the bill to create a board of commerce occupied the house during the greater part ot the evening session, criticism of the bill being based largely on tho ground that the cost of living should be handled by the reduction of the tariff. There was the point raised, too, that the board of commerce and the enmbines and fair price bill re- lated with it have been brought down too late In tbe session. Hon. W. S, Fielding took the view that if rushed through the government would find them imperfect owing to lack of prop er consideration, A. M.

The record of the proposed board, Mr. McCoig thought, would simply be a repetition ot the food board. ... ii. Nicholson, East Algoma, chairman of tbe cost of living committee, on the other hand, argued thore was immediate need for the appointment of tho board. There was a cry for action from end to end of the country. An endeavor Is being made to reach an understanding with the senate on tbe question ot prohibition.

A LONDON, July 3.—The prime minister, Mr. Lloyd George, delivered In the house of commons this afternoon an explanation of tlie peace treaty, which he described as the most momentous document to which tbe British Empire ever affixed its seal. Though showing the effect of his long labors at Paris and lacking his usual fire, tbe prime minister at times made impassioned utterances ,and was loudly cheered. His announcement that the former German emperor would soon he placed on trial before a tribunal sitting in London was cheered most of all. while his presentation of the Anglo-French convention providing for British aid if Germany should attack France unprovoked—a convention analogous to one between the United States and France—was greeted with unrestrained approval. The scene recalled some of the great speeches of the war. All the seats wore taken and evf)\y inch of standing room was occupied. The Prince of Wales, the. Japanese. Italian and American ministers and many other noted persons were in tho distinguish ed visitors gallery. The gallery behind them was unusually bright because under the recent rules women were admitted to this section and nearly monopolized the space. The premier had a good reception from all sections of the house. His Jupcech was largely impromptu and discursive. He told of the peace con ference's efforts to prevent wars in the future, and reviewed some of the striking restrictions put upon Germany in the treaty signed nt Versailles. Discussing the determination Of the allied and associated powers to place on triarAyilllam Hohenzollern, the former German emperor, as the man held responsible for the war, he declared that it such a course had been followed after other wars "there would have been fewer wars." It was tho intention to make such an example of Germany as to discourage others from "ever attempting to repeat this infamy." There was a significant passage when the premier first mentioned tbe League of Nations. Many of the members cheered, but seemingly nearly an equal number burst into laughter. "I beg of you to try it. 1 beg of you to take it seriously," the premier protested. Proceeding, he declared: "If it saved only one generation from tho horrors of war lt would be a great achievement." One member shouted: "Nobody wants it." The premier paid special tribute to the work of the British expert advisors, which, he said, had been the object of admiration ot the nations at the conference, and ended with an appeal for tho victory loan with one of his typical Flashes; "Don't demobilize the spirit of patriotism." • Speaking of the territorial terms ot the treaty, Mr. Lloyd George said the territory taken from Germany was a matter of restoration, it was- a restoration of Alsace-Lorraine, he said, taken forcibly from the land to which its population was deeply Attached; it was a restoration of Sclileswig-Hol- stein, the taking of which he described as the "meanest of Hohenzollern frauds, robbing a helpless country in the pretence that they were not doing it and then retaining the land against the wishes of the populations"; a restoration ot " a POla'hd torn to bits by ..ussian. Austrian and Prussian autocracy and now reunited under the flag oi Poland. They are all territories which ought not to belnnjr to Germany." The British delegation, the premier said, has taken a stand resolutely opposing any attempt to put a predominantly German population under Polish rule, as it Would be foolish to have another Alsace- l.

More than the usual number of officials will bo employed In passing up on the merits of the boxers, for in addition to the referee thero will ho two judges, similar to the system in vogue in Kim land. Ollie Pecord of Toledo will referee, assisted by Tex Richard and Major Anthony ,T. Drexcl Bidden of Philadelphia In the capacity of judges. They will sit on different sides of the ring and will reach any decision required of them without consultation. Jack Skellcy of Mount Vernon, N. Y., will be alternate referee, and Warren Barbour uf New York will be official timekeeper. Each boxer will also have a timekeeper. ■ Principals Are Ready. Both principals appear to be trained lo perfection and each expresses perfect satisfaction with his physical and mental state. Wlllard will probably enter tho ring weighing about -'45 pounds, while Dempsey is expected to weigh within ii pound or so of the 200 mark. In almost every physical measurement tho champion will have the advantage of tbe challenger, being the largest man who ever held the title. Notwithstanding these physical handicaps Dempsey has the popular following-and he is selected to win by many shrewd ring followers, partly due to his youth, for he is 24 years old to Willard's 37, and his Impressive rushing fighting style of boxing. Wagers Are Small. Wagering on the bout indicated the uncertainty that prevails regarding the outcome. Even money is Quoted In eummisslon rooms, while just across tho street Wlllard followers are giving 10 to 9. In no case are tho .sums laid large in comparison to bets made on past heavyweight matches. Play in tho pari mutual department showed opinion about evenly divided on the result should the affair go the full 12 rounds. Betting nn the probability of a knockout centered about rounds seven and eight, as has been the case for several days. While wagering reflects the opinion of those who take morc„than a casual interest in such matches, It has m effect upon tho ability of the prinel pats. More heavyweight championship holders have been defeated while carrying the popular money than In the reverse case. There are so many unusual angles to tomorrow's contest this 1b not considered, however xlom here tonight Mon in Review. Were Wlllard and Dempsey matched over a long distance, ranging from to 45 rounds, lt Is likely that the younger of the two would be an outstanding favorite In the betting.

In the district west of Swift Current reports show that OU per cent of the crops are beyond recovery. Spring plowing, full plowing and stubbled grain and early crops will not be cut. Late crops and good summer fallow may yet bo saved f>t> per e«nt. Thiougb the continued drought many points report wheat OB heading out and very short in straw and at the best will make only half a crop. (Jood prospects are reported from the cast central districts. Crops throughout this district are excellent and promise for a big yield. Heavy rains have Improved the crops.

GREAT DEMAND FOR RHUBARB ON PRAIRIES The following report nn tbe develop- mom and growth of tbe I'.Hiish Columbia rhubarb production is contained In tbe current issue of the I'ralrii Fruit Market Ihilletip: In lllOfl the tiunntity of rhubarl shipped lo the prairies was small. The Shipments were only I..(M. expres: lots, but the returns shewed a profit to the producer. When the ear shipments started from British Columbia complaints on condition of arrival wore voiced by the house that bought it. TJiis claim wits not allowed, and tho ear was sold ,by another concern, who found that this house that bought It had it practically sold, and examination found the stock n.K. Production increased rapidly until '16 ears per season was reached. Rot and decay set in at shipping end, hut this was' offset by replanting. About this lime the prairie Jobbers commenced to buy heavily in Walla Walla barb, thereby forcing down B, C. prices for superior new stock, to incut, prices uuoU'd by Walla Walla, on their end yl season's inferior olean-up stuff. Our growers reduced their acreage until we now supply only 10 por cent of the Qo- niands. We are not u serious competing factor In our natural market. Space forbids referring lo tlie past, present, and future of this ^industry. Sufficient Is It to say thai prices have been on a living basis this.year. There is a great unsupplied demand on th-' prairies for II. C. rhubarb, but, without, sufficient volume, and organized marketing efforts, the same result ns has been experienced by our Uatzie Shippers three or four years ago could easily be reopated. We should increase our burb production and depend on other means of marketing than consignment lo the trade. In short, rhubarb growing can bo made to pay if growers would agree to remain with their organization through thick and thin. The whole of the Within ten seconds an earthquake all but destroyed th'o, city in 1851, another laid it low in 1873, and that of 017, when millions of dollars' worth of property was destroyed, Is' still remembered. In spile of these fateful blows from nature, and devastating waves of man-made revolutions, San Salvador today is reckoned among the important cities nf the mid-continent. It has a population of (10.000; its mantifac- tured products Include soap,' cigars, candles, cotton cloth and spirits, and its compulsory education laws, university, theatres and scientific ihsti- tutions attest its regard for culture.

Tuberculosis can be virtually wiped Out in Canada if the federal nnd provincial povernments can get togol-ior on some plan for treating civilians in tlie same way asi returned soldier victims of tuberculosis are now being treated at the sanitaria of the department of civil roefitablishmont. If a civilian's lungs are attacked by tuberculosis he should not be allowed to continue to spread the disease by mingling, without proper precautions, with the public. It is therefore essential to complete success that it should be compulsory tlmt tuberculosis patients should be sent to sanitaria. And, of necessity, a, sjdtcm of compulsory treatment imiHtfel Involve free treatment, to rich and pbor alike.' <'un.ula'H military sanitaria, such as that dt Balfour, have shown what can be accomplished by means of modern methods of treating tuberculosis. They have proved that the disease can bo prevented from spreading and that the enormous waste of life from this cause can be cut to a minimum and perhaps entirely eliminated. They offer nn organization which Would serve splendidly for a scheme Of general compulsory treatment, which could be put into effect as the number of soldiers under treatment decreases. burdens which the ordinary settler has to carry. We believe that the system of supervision that wo shall exercise will be the second; and the character of the men, as selected by our qualif- catlon boards will be tbe third—the last but not the least, Nevertheless, with all these precautions, we are certain to have some . It would bo entirely chlmerlcaji to Imagine that we can venture without some loss upon this field of activity, into which I think no other nation has ever yet ontered, at all events on the scale which we now have In view. Indeed, no other country has ever yet attempted to do the work that Is being undertaken by the board in the way of provision of chattels, stock and'equipment. 'As I say, lt would be futile to hope that wo can save ourselves altogether, but it Is a matter of encouragement to find, looking over the whole class of men who have come In and are now settlers by virtue of our law, that there are very few, indeed, who are not now adapting themselves to their environment and who are not actually cultivating tho land in the most promising manner." Within a few months the Dominion will float its next Victory loan. Save for it now. There are several placos In Koot enay and Boundary where the $80,000 Dominion grant for good roads might with advantage be spent by the provincial authorities. The United States, on its Indi.pt.m1 ence Day, celebrates the peace by holding the biggest prize fight in sev oral years, which indicates that conditions are rapidly returning to normal, THE DOMINION GETS BEHIND GOOD ROADS MOVEMENT. Tho Dominion government hns de cided upon a sound policy, in making a grant to^the provinces for the con h .ruction of highways. Good roads are just as necessary to the progress nnd prosperity and de velopment of a country as are good railroads. Good roads are not a luxury, but an investment which pays dividends regularly. Good roads cut down hauling costs, by reducing the time occupied on journeys, by cutting to a minimum the wear and tear on vehicles, by increasing the maximum of tho loud which may be carried, either by horse drawn or power propelled vehicles. By improving transportation facilities, good roads are a tremendous factor In the development of the coun try, in enabling mines, forests and agricultural land to be made produc tlve. Thojf cut the cost of delivering goodalto the consumer, which means that 'they exercise a salutary influ ence 5>n the cost of living, und they also Increase production, which has a Similar effect, in addition to adding to the prosperity of the country.

"So'the purpose of this bill is a national one primarily. Its purpose is to strengthen the fibre of this country by building into the basic industrial structure the best blood und bones of our nation. "I stated at the opening that we were giving assistance at scale more liberal than had ever been undertaken by any institution looking to financial profit, and that is essential.

For various reasons we were obliged to forego the pleasure of fraternizing with Judge Forln and other Belleville Old Boys ut tho B.C. Mining QonvenUon. Including tho fact that the invitation was held up by sympathetic strlkitls at Winnipeg and reached us after the close of the convention. However, we'con assure Judge Forln that it Is always a pleasure to hear from him, even through the slow medium of the mail, and we suggest that our next year's invitation be started on its way now so that we will receive lt in time to separate the Chinaman from our laundry and start on the long hike with opportunity for stop-over privlcgcs along the way — "stop-over" being the equivalent of the ancient expression of "slop-over," now extinct.

THE GERMAN CODE. - Admiral von ..enter, who claims full responsibility for the scuttling of the German fleet in Scapa Flow, deulares he "felt he had done what any British sailor would have done under the same circumstances." Another illustration of the German code and the German's Ignorance of any other. Of bourse a British sailor would never find himself placed in circumstances like those under which Admiral von ■Router was Interned iin Scapa Flow. N*o admiral of any navy In the history of tlie world was ever in such circumstances, because it remained for the Germans to give the world an exhibition of an entire navy surrendering Itself without firing a shot. British sailors have scuttled their ships, but in order to avoid the experience of surrendering to the enemy In action, and only when they «; ittld fight no longer. In such cases they preferred death on their own decks to capture by the enemy. But, in the, fnr him, impossible circumstances in which Admiral von Renter was placed, the British sailor would have kept to\.iis bargain,. , And what is more, his country would have xpected him to do so. He would not have broken faith. The German ships \yere handed over to the British us one of the conditions on which Germany secured armistice—hundec; over by the German nation, not captured In a position where fight was useless and escape impossible. To violftto thttt condition was equivalent to the violation of a treaty—the same kind uf a breach of faith by which Germany tore up the treaty to which she wns a sig natory guarunteoing the neutrality of Belgium. ,Von Beuter thinks it is the thing to do—to violate un undertaking if it enn be done with safety and to advantage. That is the thing that always confronts the hope that Germany will change nnd become an honorable nation deserving of trust—the German Idea of right nnd wrong. The German thinks It was right and honorable to break his undertaking by sinking that fleet. He sees nothing roprebens- ible about or unworthy In It, just as ho saw nothing reprehensible: or unworthy In the violation if Belgian neutrality, the violation of-.he international laws governing naval warfare lithe sinking of unarmed pnsenger ships without chance of escape for tbe passengers, the disregard of the Red Cross in the bombing of hospitals und the slaying of wounded and nurses and the use of ambulances to conceal machine guns, the bombing of defenseless towns, the terrorlzution of civilians with a view tu intimidation, the use uf asphyxiating gas, the employment of ambassadors to plot against the countries to which they were accredited. His conception of right und wrong is the same today as lt was In 191+ and throughout the war. It is as much a part of him as his German speech. Militarism may be beaten out of him, but this port of his creed cannot be changed by education or beating. If it were only n criminal instinct for doing wrong there would bo some hope for conversion, but the German doesn't see anything as wrong that will bring him advantage, or that he thinks will bring him advantage. It is even a more helpless case than if he set up such a creed as a proper one for his own conduct; so much a natural part of him Is it that he thinks It is universal and that there is nowhere any other code of morals, as illustrated by Admiral von Renter's assumption that a, British sailor would: have done as he bus done in Scapa Flow. ""', .Notwithstanding the costly experience the world hns hud with the op- emtiim of this code, people forget about It. They will continue to forget about it. TJtey nro bound to do so bQcause,- when not faced with Us actual application it Is Inconceivable that sucltfaj.code-should guide any people. Only 'Clemenceuu, from his fifty years observation of Germany nnd the Germans, never forgets. He It seems, never thinks of the German as anything but just whut be is. So it is that he trusts Germany not at nil, tlmt be considers France will be safe from Germany only so long as Germany Is powerless. And Clemenceuu Is right. Germany can he trusted to be decent In conduct only when It is Impossible for her to be otherwise. Not In the prospect of change in the German character but In tbe pence terms which render Germnny Impotent does immunity from future Germun wrongs rest. FRIDAY, JULY 4, 1919. deputy commissioner of the Bureau of Internal Revenue, Among the statements made in this report are that opium and oth:r narcotic drugs are used by probably about u million people; that tho "under-l ground" truffle In narcotic drugs is ubout equul to the legitimate traffic; that the so-culled "dope-peddlers" appear to have a national organization for their nefarious trnde, obtaining the drugs by smuggling over our borders or nt the coust ports; und thai three- fourths of the cocaine consume in this country is for illicit purposes. The investigation carried on by tlie committee led to the conclusion that the wrongful use of narcotic drigs has materially increased in certu n sec tlons. Thus 20 cities, the aggregate population of which Is ten people, report un increase. New York City and San Francisco are ummg tho number. The committee regrrts that there has been no definite or concerted action by state and municipal jo'vem- ments lo suppress the truffle, nnd evidently believes that such combined cf- for twould both Increase our knowledge of the subject and make it possible lo deal with it effectively.. The causes brought out In tbe investigation for uddiction to drugs, stnted in tlie order of their frequency, are: Use of phy-i sicinns' prescriptions, association with other addicts, prohibition, use cf drugs for chronic discuses, curiosity to learn the effect of the drug, use of or proprietary medicines, use of drugs and use of Igntion( ighteen occult-Id by of tbe millers, rs and prohibition laws on the use ol forming drugs.
