SHERIFF SEIZES PAPER SUPPLY Company Tears up Railway Switch to Thwart Controller. OTTAWA, Jan. 12.—Probability that a number ot daily newspapers .in Western Canada would have to suspend publication for lack of newsprint, developed into a practical certainty yesterday when, the Fort Francis Paper Mill finally and abso lutely defied tho order of the paper controller, R. A Pringle, according to the committee of publishers now in Ottawa. Early In the day the paper controller's representative at the mill, J. L. McNlcol, in compliance, with Instructions from Ottawa, served notice on the Fort Francis Pulp and .Paper Company, to re' sum* shipments. Falling fulfillment of this order, he declared his inten- .»tion of commandeering enough pa< per to enable the western papers to continue publications. The mill refused to obey the or der, whereupon the sheriff, who had been summoned to the scene, with the paper controller's representative, proceeded to effect a seizure, says a statement from the committee of publishers. E. Vf. Backus, president of the company, had instructed his employes to refuse admission to Mr. McNlcol by force, if necessary but reports received last night indicated that the seizure had been effected. To further complicate mattors to the detriment of the publishers and to set at naught the action. of tho paper controllers the company tore up the switch by which cars moved from tho mill to the tracks of the Canadian National 'Hallway.

NITTI MAY NOT AGREE . .'TO ITALY'S ALLIANCE .'ROME, Jan. 12.—Tho Comoro Italia, the organ of the Catholics, thinks that Premier Nitti will not agree to Italy's entorting an Anglo. 'French military alliance without consulting the Italian parliament, he having made a promise to the chamber to this effect. The Italian people, the paper adds, "Feel complete repugnance toward an agreement which recalls the ancient militaristic coalition that led to tho European -war. The major ity of the people would certainly reject any proposal of a. new milt tary triple alliance originally plan lied between England, France and the United States. Now that Am er(ca makes, it understood that sho wishes to disassociate herself from European affairs the other two nations propose to substitute Italy which is not. flattering to us." .

MacKenzle King, successor to Sir] Wilfrid Laurier, leader uf the Lib- oral party, tonight first brought his personal message to the people of Novia Scotia at a meeting at the Orpheum theatre. The audience which greeted him might have been composed of natives of .Missouri, patiently waiting to lie shown, and'' they greeted Mr. King with move or less mechanical applause. Ho had not spoken long, however, before ho had carried away his audience, and even-a number or people in the nailery, who seemed.to huve come with the expressed object of'm'aking things unpleasant for him. He was listened to with the deepest attention and the most important of his points elicited applause that was spontaneous. When he left the theatre there was a demonstration which lasted for several minutes and There wns little doubt that the personality of tlie new leader had left a profound impression. ill-. King's speech was eloquent and inspiring, an appeal lor unity to enable Canada to face the great problems which were confronting her. lie spoke of the three great groups, the farmers, labor and the war veterans, and said that beneath tho aspirations of 'each was the great underlying principle ,ot liberalism, Me claimed tjtat a. true, parliament., must Ite like a mirror and report -ill these groups. Otherwise there cou: I be no hope of ii united Canada. It was the work of liberalism lo Include the ear sentiais of demands of all of tlie groups and prevent them from becoming too class-conscious, welding them into the great forward movement. He expressed bis complete opposition to monopoly of government by any one class. . In appealing for the formation of a great party with a broad platform, i\lr. King dwelt upon the value of tlie traditions of liberalism, lie also spoke of the lives of public men and said that they were no cowards fpr they were obliged to endure the' sneers and insults of men probably less worthy than they were. ]ie spoke much of unity of command in an endeavor to show where union government bad utterly failed. Ho said that it had. been formed to win the war; nothing else; and now that tlio* war was ended it was seeking a pretext for holding on. Regarding Sir Robert Borden, he said that the agreement had been that the nominal prime minister, to do far away with that no one would be ible to communicate with him. His sketches of current happenings in Ottawa and the nebulous policy of the administration won much laughter and applause. The ship of state,, he claimed, was quite without a chart. Mr. King devoted much time lo an exposition of the platform drawn up at tlie Liberal convention, stressing the financial situation and tho Bug-, gester tariff changes in an effort to reduce the cost of living. With regard to reciprocity he prophesied that Mr. Fielding; to whom he paid n glowlnw tribute as a noble Canadian statesman, would live lo see tbe victory tin' which he had fought. He branded as false the rumor that neither of the old parties deslrcl election. The Liberals had, only i attitude, they wanted a fair and equitable franchise act. then an .• Peal to Ihe poople.

MINOR POINTS STILL REMAIN Defence Claims Documentary Evidence' not Properly Admitted. WINNIPEG, Jan. 12.—(C.P.)— Three points in tho reserved caso before the court of appeals Were concluded at the session of the court today, on the appeal of R. B. Russell from his conviction for sedition. The appeal alleged ll reasons for the contention that Russell, in his trial before Mr, Justice Metcalfe, was entitled to 10 peremptory challenges instead of four. The points that still remain to lie argued by the defence are the admissibility of evidence of the riot the propriety of some of the matter in tho charge to the jury was given by Mr. Justice Metcalfe and other minor points. When this argument had been received tho. crown will take up their side of the case. The appeal will continue tomorrow. **' It was claimed by the defence that some of the documentary evidence was improperly admitted. Tiie main objection was taken to correspondence which passed between Stevenson, secretary of the execu- tiv of tlie socialist party of Canada, with hadqttarters at Vancouver and other individuals in British Columbia and Alberta. No proper connection between these writers and tho alleged conspiracy which culminated with the general strike in Winnipeg, had been shown, said' counsel for the defence. As far as the general Verdict was concerned, Mr. Cassidy argued that the verdict should liave stipulated the co-conspirators of Russell and not merely found him guilty. There was no authority however for this argument in Canadian law practice.

LIKE ELECTRIC BILl Tells Why a Corn Is So Painful and Says Cutting 'Makes Them Grow Press an electric button and you form a contact with a livo wire which rings the bell. When your shoes press against your corn it pushes its sharp roots down upon a sensitive nerve and you get a shock of pain. Instead of trimming your corns, which merely makes them^ grow, just step into any drug store and ask for a quarter of an ounce of freezone. This will cost very little but is sufficient to remove every hard or soft corn or callus from one's feet. A few drops applied directly upon a tender, aching' corn stops the soiteiic.ss instantly, and soon the corn shrivels up so it lifts right out, root and all, without pain. This drug never inflames or even Irritates the surrounding tissue of skin. WfHEMAO INFLUENZA LA GRIPPE Relieved in Si nighty GRIP-FIX IN CAPSULE FORM Formula—Aspirin.

NEW YOBK, Jan. 2.—Another deficit in clearing house reserves, slitter money rates and: continupd abstention of public support constituted the chief factors of today's reactionary stock market. Failure of the United States supreme court to.act on the stock dividend caso and widely circulated but unconfirmed reports that several r-t the important Mexican oil properties had sustained severe damage from earthquake disturbances provided tho sliorir. with material to depress prices.' There were several neutralizing features, notably the very favorable tonnage statement of the U.S. Steel Corporation for December and encouraging busiess advnances from western and southern points. Aside from tho relative firmness of U.S. Steel shares, however, these developments exercised no apparent Influence. Rumors wero current that negotiations wero actively progressing for the consolidation or merger of several of tlie secondary steel and equipment companies, but these met with little credence in authoritative circles. Oils and motors were heavy almost from the outset, but' it was not until the final hour, when call loans rose by successive stages from 10 to 18 per cent that the soiling and consequent decline became' quite general. ' As usual there were a 'few stocks which stood out for th?!'' comparative strength, especla'ly Royal Dutch and some of the less prominent oils and equipment. Rails also resisted piessure, but trading in that divisioi was light «t lest Sales amounted to 1,075,00 s.'a'es. The bond market preented no now feitures, apart from a modem to accession of activity.

Also outstanding in the trading were tho steels, notably Iron common and Steel of Canada. Stool of Canada rose to 87% in !the morning and closed at 85%.

It assists in general educational Work through providing the best literature, in additional to technical and reference works. It makes available to man, woman and child the world's best in books. Rich and poor alike may benefit. ■ i Because of Its valuo to citizens, a good public library such as Nelson can develop, if the bylaw which goes beforij tho people Thursday is passed, flf of assistance In attracting newedftiers to the city and of still greater force in holding them here when they have come. Public libraries are an essential part of modern civic service and the city which does not possess one is hound to lag behind, because Its residents arc being deprived of facilities for mental and material' betterment which they can get elsewhere. The' passage of the library bylaw will not mean any serious increase ,ln civic expenditure, but it will open the .way to the establishment of a library worthy of tlie city.

High silver prices have not produced any hectic boom In British Columbia mining, but they have resulted In the carrying out of a great amount of development work which would not otherwise have been done.
