C Delisle, who de scribed his standing as tho mayor of Caughnawaga and chief of tho Caughnawaga Indians. Asked point blank by the chairman of the commission deliberating on the pro posed amendments to the Indian ncl, Delisle said ho did , not know whether he was a subject of tlie present King of England, but he did know that ho was on ti tied to protection from, the British. crown by reason of treaties entered into between the British crown and his forefathers as fur back as 1744'. Today's sitting of the committee was taken almost entirely with the hearing of chiefs from' the various, tribes. Mr, Delisle, who represents about 2400 members of tho Caught uawuga hand, said thoy wanted to giVe any Indian the right lo lie- come a white man, hut they did not want to make it in anyway com-; pulsory. This Indian Act has made Indians of moro white men than It has mado white men of Indians, he declared. Ho also strongly objected to a man who changed his race being allowed to slay on tho reserve. The man should he compelled to sell his land to the remaining members of tho band. "It simply means expropriation and tho disintegration of the band and as such is entirely unconstitutional, My opinion is that it should go to England to be decided by the highest courts there." Andrew Paul) a young Indian representing the Siiuamlsh nation of Indians of British Columbia, .cor roborated the claims of Dollslo, Ills people, ho^ said, had no copies of the proposed bill and did not want any. "They do not want to understand It, they do not want It any way, whatever it, Is," he said, nnd then left the room.

The Franchise bill was again in committae. Presumably non-contentious clauses were under discission. Under the bill, "a chief cloctrola Officer is appointed. His appointment will mean abolition of what Hon. Hugh Guthrie, solid to r-genecral,. termed tho "ancient and honorable office" of the clerk of the crown, tn ebai.cery, an office which dates tyiGk In Canadian history for a century or more, and links with tho spacious days of "Wolsey. Under the bill, too,- it is proposed that, the pui-linmentary counsel of tho houso (at .present F,. H.

' .. $b m. |s,r,deRi^U;^t0va£4£tp.,lW TOflSfcfc- freo from j partizan control," Mr. Gulhrio explained. The committee concurred in Mr. Guthrie's decision but there was sharp criticism of the clause. Col. J. A. Currie (Simcoe North) opposed life appointments. They savored of Prussianlsm. Suppose tho parliamentary counsel should be re moved, what then would be the position of the chief electoral of- fleer. S. W. Jacobs (George Etienno Car tier) set the committee laughting with the remark that the present parliamentary counsel had been ap pointed chancellor of tlie diocese of Ottawa, Was this compatible with an appointment as chief electoral officer, Mr. Jacobs demanded. "Will he not have to play the part of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde Mr. Jacobs pressed. Tlie committee roared, - Clashes With Speaker Discussion was proceeding when tho deputy speakor called attention to tho fact -that the clausn actually be fore the. committee "was one abolish ing the office of the clerk of the crown in chancery and not the subsequent clause relating to the appointment of tho chief electoral officer. His ruling led to a clash with Frank S. Gahill of Ponfelac. Mr.* Cahill had protested and declared his intention of appealing from the ruling. "Do you persist In your appeal?" Mr. Boivin, the deputy speaker, aak- ed. "I certainly do," Mr, Cahill sharply replied, Hon. W. S. Fielding intervened suggesting1 that the appeal should not ho pressed. For a time Mr. Cahill . Insisted on his appeal, but eventually withdrew it. Again, on a later clause disqualifying ecclesiastics from acting as returning officers, tho appointment of Mr.: 'Gis- bornc was before tho committee. Was ihe chancellor of the diocese an ecclesiastic, asked D. D, McKenzie. Ho was not, the' sollcltor-gcner&r replied. Tho minister of justice addod that a chancellor of the dlocoise-was a legal advisor.

For six hours it was the center of discussion on the floor, yet no one questioned that it would be adopted. The final vote will como late: tomorrow. 1 There was a vote today on ad option of the special rule limiting debate and preventing amendment of the resolution as drawn hy the committee on foreign affairs. The rule was carried 214 to 15.6, seven Democrats joining the Republicans In its support, and one Republican opposing it. This was taken to indi calc action in the resolution itself. Republican leaders said that moro Democrats would join them on the thiol vote. One of the Democrats, representative ■ Huddlostone, 6f Ala bama who voted against ' the rule announced that he would support tho resolution. Charges, of purtiznn- ship ran through Democratic comment on the resolution. - Representative Huddlestone noted those but insisted that conscience Tyould not let him trot along with his party majority and oppose the peace pro posal whatever "company his do cision forced him' to keep. The November elections figured almost as prominently in the debate did the international situation, war time legislation! or even President Wilson's share in the treaty fight.' A statement by Represonta^ live Pou, Democrat, North CarbUnaj that the president had been' without personal ambition in ' his actions brought a roar of laughter from tho Republican side. It was echoed from the Democrat side a moment later when, .to support charges of partizan purposes, representative Montague, Democrat, Virginia, asked Chairman Campbell of tho rules committees why peace with Austria Hungary also had not been proposed. On the technical side of the discussion the Democrats repeatedly challenged the constitutional right of the congress to pass such' leglsla tion; insisting it was a contemplated evasion of the treaty-making powers conferring on the executive branch and tho senate. There was nothing to indicate when the senate would take n)i the resolution. 1 Democrats openly challenged In the debate that it was drawn without expectations by its proponents, that it' ever would become a law.

His address was directed to defining the rotation between the mobolizatlon of industry and rehabilitation of Russia, i "Mdbolizatlon Is moro ' necessary now than it was formerly", he declared.' "We have to deal with the present peasant population' and masses of unskilled labor which cannot he utilized to the fullest extent by any other means than military discipline. Trades unions are capable "-of organizing great masses of qualified workers, but 30 per cont of the people cannot bo ^reached hy this means/' Trotsky declared the working army, which is built on the principle Of compulsory work, is no less productive than Was the old system of compotltlon, and came out in favor of porsonal, rather than collective administration. He asserts political administration of railroads was unsatisfactory und temporary, adding, however, that it was necessary because railroad workers are more conservative in tendency than men engaged, in ,other, brahches of labor, THE WEATHER BELGIUM WANTS TO SEND TROOPS INTO THE RUHR URUSSEIiS, April 8.—King Al- Iwrfc presided toduy at a cabinet council at which it was decided,. as a token of fiiendshi|» to TTrunce and of solidarity with tlie Allies, tliat Belgium be prepared to send a detachment Into the Ruhr region.

No Discount SEEKS PUBLICITY T Board of Trade Wishes Assistance in Raising Large Fiind In ■ co'iiaeciuence of steps tsilcen by the board of trade luwt night, the city council will he asked, at Its next session, to consider the Question o| publicity, and the making: of a grant in the neighborhood of, perhaps $1000, to be -useil in conjunction 'with funds raised by the board of trade, to advertise tlie city and district.* . ~\ B. Fowler, whose illness has prevented the publicity committee from proceeding with its work, wrote that his doctor had forbldclerf his to give his mind to .business for the next six •Weeks, and he asked to be relieved of Ills duties as publicity chairman for that period. The board, after considerable discussion, Instructed the publicity com-J Tnlttee to proceed with the preparation of a plan, and to wait upon the city council and request a civic grant. As outlined In a general way at last night's meeting, by various speakers, tlie plan that seemed to be favored the members, was for a fund of f2f)00, of which the board should raise $1500, chiefly by subscription, but partly from the financial proceeds of the membership campaign, tlie remaining $1000 to be sought from the city. Other members favored a dollar-for- dollar contribution from the city. As to the desirability of putting tt up to the city to give substantial help^ here was only one opinion. - ' President J. It. Hunter reviewed tlie publicity worlt of the past few years, pointing- out that the board had carried out the duty of advertising^ the ommunity, a duty that to some exr tent should be borne by the city; . J. A. Irving held that this work, which was for the ultimate benefit of the whole community, should be met out of public funds, substantially at least, A. S: Horswill claimed it was as [important for the community to advertise as for a business man. ' . E. Amiable added that advertising over the name of the board of trade or of the city council had much greater authority with investors than any imount of private advertising. Kenneth Campbell said three families that, he knew personally came to Nelson to reside in consequence of the dvertlsing done by the board of trade. It was suggested that Mayor J. A. McDonald should express his views. To this the mayor replied that lie. did not' know the feeling of the other members of the' council, but that the best thiilg for the board to do was to approach the council, nnd map out its program of advertising after finding ut what funds would pc available. .On motion of A. S. Horswill and . Tt. Poole, the publicity committee was instructed to proceed on the Hues llrcady Indicated, if necessary, adding to its members. It was reported that some forty new members hnd been secured thus far in " e publicity campaign. In {his connection, a letter was read from 'Commander Harrison of Crawford Bay, expressing appreciation of ttie board's efforts, and enclosing a contribution of $■"> toward the publicity fund.

Power Bate Die cut;-*, ion An illuminating discussion took place on power rates; various eastern rate*- having been obtained by the Industrial committee, all based on Niagara, anc Li.ll being extremely low. Mayor J. A. McDonald said the consumption of the City's power ran close to 1000 horse. *G. T.

(.NADA'S STAKE IN PULPWOQD INDUSTRY OTTAWA, April 4—From 'April 14, to August, 1019, Canadian pulp d paper companies floated a total $'40;752„876 of various forms'of-so rities. Of this amount, Tl,l!.9,S76 ly was placed In Great Britain; 7,800,000 was placed In the United ates, and $20,753,000 in Cnnada. the balance of $1,000,000 which is certain, probably about $800,000 placed in the States and $200. '0 In Canada. The $20,000,000 aced In Canada was floated sub- iquent to November, 1917, the Percy during which Canada absorbed ree great victory loans.

NEW YORK, April 8.—The same influences and factors that gave upward, impetus to recent sessions of the stock market, were operative again today, but extensive '-selling lit' the final hour caused much irregularity at the close." Dealings during the early and Intermediate period were ascended by greater scope and confidence, although originally largely with professional interests. Rails were fairly active and moderately higher. The financial district buzzed with rumors of additional stock dividends and possible mergers or consolidations of industrial companies; especially those in the equipment and motor trades. The bullish movements of pools In many stocks were assisted by easy money. Large amounts were loan ed on call at six per cent, but time funds inclined to greater firmness, due lo small offerings Ah usual, the greater part of the day's activity was furnished by steels, equipments, motors and oils together with several less distinct Ive specialties. These were represented .by Stromburg Carburetor, Baldwin Locomotive, American Car Mexican Retroleum Texas- Company, Industrial Alcohol and sugars. 1 ■ Gross advances .of three to 11 points, in those 'Stocks were largely <>r altogether forfeited in the rcnltza- Vion move 'toward the end.

Member Audit Bin-can of Circulation FRIDAY MORNING, APRIL 9, 1920 This Is Going to Be a Big Year in History of This District '. Prospects for the best year in the history of Kootenay and Boundary from the viewpoint of general business and industry are becoming better as the season of greatest industrial activity approaches. ,It was predicted in January that 1920 would be a good year for the district but the indications now are that it will be a record. ■, .n Mining prospects are promising, the lumber industry is now reaping some of the fruits-of its efforts during lean years and the agriculutral industry, was never in as good a position, owing to the prices for produce, flnd. the fact that every year more and more land reaches the productive stage. General business prospects depend on the basic industries of the countr^ and are naturally equally promising. Yk Tfi.. Tfc, *!», Newsprint Control Has Benefited Public, Not Newspapers The courts have decided: that the board'of commerce has no jurisdiction sufficient to enable it to govern the price of newsprint. Just what effect .h& judgment will have remains to be seen. | , In any event newsprint control ends in June. After that date 'Canadian newspapers will pay the export price to the United States. Under the rulings of the paper controller and later of the board oT commerce the price of newsprint was set at a figure which it was considered represented a fair profit to the manufacturers. But this figure was considerably less than the price the manufacturers were able to get in the United States. Canadian newspapers have been buying newsprint cheaper than have the American newspapers. But this has not resulted in profit to the newspapers. It has simply enabled the Canadian newspapers to keep their subscription rates and charges for advertising, lower than the rates charged by the American papers. The public, rather than the newspapers, has benefited from the controlled price of newsprint. . Newspapers are manufacturers. They have to charge for their product a price sufficient to meet the cost of production and, if possible, give tTMm a fair profit. If wheat goes up, the price of flour rises, if flour rises the price of bread goes up. It is the same way"'with newspapers; when the cost of their supplies and labor advances they have to charge more for their product. Hence the public has been the real beneficiary of the action of the paper controller and board of commerce in keeping the price of newsprint in Canada at a lower figure than it could command in the open market of the continent. . .■'. -», -»•»&. ia, Provincial Borrowings Total borrowings provided for under legislation passed at the present session of the provincial legislature have reached the huge figure of $10,800,000. There is nothing in the size of the loans to arouse uneasiness, although the total is more than half the total debt of the province as it stood in 1916. Eleven million dollars can be spent to advantage in this province providing that it is directed to undertakings that are soundly conceived and capably and economically executed for the development of the industries and the increasing of the production and prosperity of the province. That is the point: That the'money should be wisely and well spent. It is to that feature of the question that the public will naturally devote the most attention. It is not the amount of the money but the manner in which it is spent which will count in the long run. Waste is always bad; at this period it would be criminal.

Replying to questions by Mr. Mackenzie King, Mr. Rowell said that among other things, the bill dealt with adjustment of debts owing by Canadians to' Bulgarians and by Bulgarians to Canadian. The peace treaty provided methods of adjustment. Either a clearing house might be established or the debts could be liquidated- under process of law subject to provisions of the treaty. Mr. Fielding wanted to know why, in connection with tho ?04,000 contrlbutlon paid by.

WHY EXPERIMENT? Food scientists claim thai the leavener is largely responsible for the flavor, texture and whole- someness of your home baking. That on no other one ingredient does so much depend. It is important, therefore, to use a baking powder that you know possesses the necessary leavening qualities. MAGIC BMONGPCMDER Contains No Alum and is the only strictly high class baking powder in Canada selling at a moderate price. Its reputation is built on purity and highest quality. The only well known medium priced baking powder made in Canada that does not contain alum and that has all its ingredients plainly stated on the label.

FOR LAST 10 YEARS Headaches affect all ages and both sexes alike, but in all cases the treatment should be directed to remove the cause, for with the cause removed the headaches vanish for ia.ll time. What is necessary for a permanent cure is something that will go right to the seat of tlie trouble. For this purpose it is impossible to find a better remedy for headaches of all descriptions than Uurdock's Blood Bitters, acting us it does on every organ of the body to strengthen, purify and regulate tho whole sys tern. Mrs. Flora Hall, Dominion, N.S., writes:—"I have been troubled with sick headaches for the last ten years. I had lost faith in all remedies until recently a friend ot mine advised mo to try Burdock Blood Bitters. This 1 did, and found relief in a very short ttnre. 1 would now recommend B. B.

Has Not Yet Reached Its Highest Point in British Columbia VICT'onfA, April 8.—That the cost of education in the municipal and rural schools of British Columbia,, which has been mounting rapidly of late years, to the alarm of taxpayers, has not -yet reached its highest point, S. J. • Willis, superintendent of education for British Columbia, told Mayor Porter, E. B. Paul, city superintendent ot schools, and 400 teachers from all over the province attending tlie opening session of tho British Columbia Teachers' federation In the Victoria high school today. "You and I have every1 sympathy with the mayors and councillors who have to pvovido the money, but we can't sacrifice school efficiency and what it means," said Mr. Willis. "Let us strive to create and maintain a school system 100 per cent efficient; The only solution of the educational problem of British Columbia is to have a well trained permanent teacher in every classroom in the province. ] j I Mr. Willis announced that arrange- I inenta have been made to provide " summer courses for teachers at the University of British Columbia. For second class teachers summer courses aro proposed with supervised courses of reading during the winter. Mr. Willis also announced that the department of education has decided to. iiicrease the minimum salary of teachers on the Island by $120 to $900 a year. He hoped, that the lime will soon come when the province will be able to pay at a rate which will help to make the rural school what it should be to its community. Tho night session was occupied with an address by Dr. Henry Su?,- zallo, president of the-University of Washington. Dr. Su7./,allo, In speak- ink of the need of popular education in economic facts, said there was no such thing as equality of mind. It was .the business of the schoolroom to instill into tho future man the right spirit of manhood. There was such a thing as spiritual equality and it was the purpose of the demoncracy lo develop this in its highest moral standard; lie placed Ihe profession of school master on a high plane for there had never been a time in the present generation when education wyia so much a national product as now. It was the spiritual work of teaching that was a potent factor whether in the church, the home or tho school, though it was often not easy to see the results, The problem Of tbe school master; was not primarily to teach the subjects of tho usual school curriculum fur it appeared to him more important that character should he built up as well as the intellect training. The whole principle was not in decrease the development of the intellect and to stop neglecting tho emotional background Of the intellect. One of his striking phrases was "Democracy is nothing but a set of principles hammered out "of centuries of aspirations."

LONG, Chief of Police. Returning last night from the Dominion convention of the G.W.V.A. in Montreal lust week, Mrs. W. Garland Foster, delegate from the local branch Of the association, was full bf enthusiasm for the generous reception accorded all delegates by the citizens of Montreal, the unity of spirit and purpose characterizing the whole proceedings, and for the prominent part taken in all debates' by the British Columbia delegates. \ Montreal gave of its best in welcoming tlie delegation, declared ■ Mrs. Poster, including a banqflet by the city Officials at the Windsor hotel. There, during a recital of aldermanle trials and tribulations by her neighbour at the table, Mrs. Poster vouched her familiarity with such problems by stating that she herself was an alderman; whereupon her neighbor made occasion to present 15 of Montreal's aldermen that were present to her. Mrs. Poster stated humorously that at tho banquet the waiter made no distinction on account of her sex, and proffered cigars. Coming to more serious topics, tho local delegate stated her regard for the prominent part in debates and the proceedings generally taken by the British Columbia delegates, who showed a broad-minded consideration In discussion of topics averse to tho natural policy of British Columbia representatives. On the open door policy, British Columbia delegates had been strongly opposed to tho scheme as It was passed, but were beaten in the voting. How- fever, it was thought that considerable latitude will be given to local branches to admit dr refuse admission to veterans of other wars until the next convention, as they choose.
