Rolf Comes Home CHAPTER XXXI QLOfUA hod resolved never to see - terry Carr again, but because ■he wm drying dangerously these Jays and It wai too much of an effort tp avoid him, she accepted hla apology and continued to play about with i him. When Rolf returned from the east he learned Immediately that Barry and Oioria were seen everywhere together. It was because of -•We that he went to see her, but he found her appallingly different. Her complete poise was brilliantly Mad. By en her face was different. when he had first known her, varied Mpreeslons had drifted across her ■mall face, her eyes had dilated When emotion had swept over her. her mouth had been capable of a hundred changes of expression. Now It seemed to him as If ahe wore a mask. Her laugh was sweet, but without warmth, her eyea ntr- ffowed and -Inscrutable, her mouth mocking and wreathed perpetually in ft smile which the rest of her face did not reflect. Manning had told him that Gloria was doing poor work, that remon - ■trance with her did no good, that the life had "got her." And Rolf -Ind taken It singularly to heart because he felt himself largely to blame for everything. If Rolf found Oioria changed, she found him also amazingly different. Hie arrogance of manner remained, but back of It there was more dignity. He seemed much older, and lar Wore serious. Oioria would have preferred him as he was when she first met him. The change in him was vaguely disconcerting. She seemed determined to avoid the "DODD'S % KIDNEYS PILLS J? * ^w, •''. L '• ': rts "..,iW Ail1*" serious ln their conversation. Keeping up a running flow of small talk, she managed to skirt any reference to the personal, until ^at last Rolf pinned her down ■ with a straightforward question. "Gloria, do you still want to be free? The last time we talked you were to see your lawyers immediately," Gloria's heart leaped strangely. It was true, and yet all these weeks she had done nothing ahout It She had drifted, simply because she had been too listless to do anything. Now he was here, and no doubt behind this anil from him, there was something he had not told her- He had probably met Home one el.ee. he wanted to be free. Oh, it was Intolerable, and her cheeks were suddenly hot with shame. "You certainly hnve changed," she exclaimed mockingly. "You're actually ready and willing to brave the scandalmongers In order to be free. Who ls she, Rolf? Do tell r(ie about her." He did not answer her. He was suddenly raging with a cold fury at her attitude. He wanted to shake her into submission; he wanted to reach her at all costs, and yet he felt helpless. It was as if everything warm and human in her had been killed. "I suppose you're finding me changed, too," she went on lightly, when he did not speak, "Oh, yes. I'm walking the path of least resistance now, I'm having a good time. That's all that matters, Isn't lt? You ought to be proud of me for being such an apt pupil." "With Barry Carr!" Rolf flung out, and was sorry the minute the words had passed his lips, for Gloria's eyes suddenly flared! "Well, what of it? Isn't he aa good as you? There's no occasion for vou to look down on him. You're all the mime, you sham men in the colony, one is as good as another. However, let's keep to the subject. You came to see about your freedom, didn't you? I won't lose another day. I'll see my lawyer the first thing in the morning, nnd you doubtless won't be kept wnltlng too long. I hope not I'm as eager to be free as you are." Tomorrow—"The Critics Speak."

JUNE U, 1924 Good Morning! "Good morning" is a simple salutation, pronounced with little meaning millions of times a month, yet it can be made to sound like the welcome of an angel. Did you ever start down the street and meet a business acquaintance who grunted "Morn'" at you as if he begrudged the time and energy it took to say it? One almost wishes such a man wouldn't greet him at all, especially if one be meditating on the glory of the world newborn. Others there are who bid one "Good morning!" with an accent on the "good" and with a smile that is a very sunburst of good will, making the day brighter and the heart glad. The art of saying "Good morning" with effect is not a matter of genius but of practice. It is not a gift, but the result of a persevering determination to make your fellow- man know that you are genuine when you tell him you wish him ■well. Government by Compromise Not Wanted in B.C. Three-party politics has put a curse on government wherever it has been tried. British Columbia, saddled with no less than four parties, is flirting with a double curse, says the Vancouver Sun, in an editorial emphasizing the danger of group government. In Vancouver, four full tickets are in the field. Liberals, Conservatives, Provincials and Laborites are all out after full representation. Unless the people of this province retain their common sense and register their ballots strictly along two-party lines, British Columbia is going to have government by compromise instead of definite governmental authority at Victoria that will get results, continues the Sun. Ontario's experience with third-party government was not a happy one. Between the wild ideas of Premier Drury, the doubtful financing of Peter Smith, and the weird road- building policy of Mr. Biggs, Ontario came pretty near financial collapse. And this was all under the regime of reformers, and in the highly moral atmosphere of Toronto the Good. Out here in British Columbia there is developing a great western empire that requires clean-cut government authority to deal with big clean-cut programs. There is too much real business to be done to leave much time for political maneuvering and jockeying for position such as waste the energies and brains of statesmen in Europe. If government by compromise is to be inflicted on British Columbia, so much time will be devoted to shuffling the deck and scrutinizing the cards that the actual business of getting the blue chips into play will never come off. Theoretically, straight party government may have its faults. But up to date it is the only system that gets things done. And getting things done is the one big crying problem of the west. THE CHOICE OF A CLOTHES LINE TOMORROW'S MENU Breakfait Hcrrle'H Core?.! Codfish Balls offee Pop Overs Luncheon Kgg Salad Corn Muffins ea Celery Preserves Luncheon Broiled Shad Potatoes Steamed in Skins Krieel WU Plant Lettuee Salad Lemon Meringue Pie Coffee What kinel of a clothes line shall I buy? Is a question which comes In to me (reciuently from bride renders. Tealay we find in hardware stores various kinds of clothes lines, all of which are good. Some housewlve's like one kinel. siertTe another. I know of several old hoiiHekeeiters who declare Ihat a geilvanized iron clothes line is tbe only kinS they would heive In their back yards. Of'course, this Is the moat expensive type of line, but, as my housekeeper-friends say. it is very satisfactory and will last practically a lifetime. lt will not rust the clothes. It never knots eer gets teul of place. And another eulvantage lies ill the fact that '-ozen corners of clothes In cold eeithei- will not stick to a galvanized een line-, as they will to a cotton or 'emp leleo. But eether housewives maintain that there Is no clothes line like a cotton ne. ln the first place, lt Is inexpensive^—a most important oemsider- tlon for young people starting out n housekeeping with limited means, 'ben., too. cotton lines are splendidly t ong. Another good point ls that leethes pins will steey lirmly on a e'Otton line. But cotton lines should be taken down each week, sfte't' wash day. If they are to be kept dustfree and this is uften neglected by busy housekeepers. If they cannot lee taken down, they must at least bo well wiped with a damp cloth before" clothes are hung on them. Hemp lines, too, are favorites with many housekeepers. They also yield easily to the pressure of the pins. I have lately had complaints from several housekeepers that their "metal clothes lines" have rusted. These readers neglected to mention exactly what kind of line they use. Oood grades of metal clothes lines sold today are rustproof. However. I may say In general that they c;en be freed of the rust as follows—Moisten a cloth In cold water, then dip it Into powdered bath brick anil rub em line. Or scour with powde-red pumice wet with oil. Very obstinate rust on metal oay lee remeeve'el ley hi'imt covered with kerosene oil, then left untouched for several hours before' being scoured :es above directed. If the rust resists this treatment It may be touched oujcklv with hydrochloric add (a poison) followed by ammonia to neutntlize the acid. After removing all llie rust freem the line, it Is best to apply a coat of white paint or white enamel. A painted metal clothes line needs only to be wiped off with a damp cloth hefore using.

Twenty Years Ago Among the hundreds of dogs recognized by the American Kennel club there are three breeds which have originated In the United Stntes. The Malamute. Husky or Muslihound, ■.leveloped by the Indians in Alaska lor the specific purpose of hauling sleds over the Ice; the Chesapeake flay dog, used along the eastern shore, at first for duck shooting, and the Huston terrier. There are two ways of using color for becomingtiess. A woman may wear those that tone in with her natural coloring, or she may seek eon- irast. In cither case, it is necessary to know sotA^hlng about the character Ol the different colors to insure becoming choice. This season, for -example, yellow, In two shades, Is considerably feit- iLirt-d. In the lighter shade, a cleat- canary tone, It is becoming to all hrunetles, wilh the exception of Ihose with very dark, blotchy or olive skins, and tn the auburn-haired type. A slightly sallow skin, however, may be Improved by yellow, as It will be mnde to look lighter. Only golden haired blondes may wear yellow, so may the gray haired woman, discretely, provided her hair is milky white. The darker, quit* reddish yellow which you have seen, is best for the dark eyes types, with dark brown or black hair. It Is also a good shade for olive skins, and especially for freckles, because it is so much brighter in hue than they are, Of the reds, there is a bright yellowish red which is wonderful for Just the right type, who should hnve light brown, dark brown or black hair, any color eyes, and almost any skin, providing It is not hlotehy, or too dark. But the woman who wears this color must be it hie to support it with a distinguished bearing. Blondes nre opt to be extinguished by such a vivid color. Then there is coral, a beautiful member of the red family. But the richness ol this color requires a very clear skin, pale or pinkish, with dark hair and eyes. The various shades of pink, however, may he worn with complete success by all types, except those with creamy or sallow complexions. These complexions will find the rose shaded less trying. A florid complexion, however, should avoid rose. (Olher colors will he analyzed tomorrow.) A novelty that has had the usual Paris origin. Is the "slave rope" ! choker.

(Registered ln accordance w.th the Copyright act.) You have been suffering from stomach trouble, and ao many different factors have entered into the condition that finally your physician suggests an »C-ray meal. Many physicians are of the opinion that the X-ray, insofar as the X-ray meal Is concerned, has lead many of their brethren astray. Perhaps your own physician haa lost his faith In It as a court of laat resort. Whv Is this? Does the X-ray not tell the truth? As a matter of fact the X-ray al- •ways tells tbe truth, but sometimes the physician and the X-ray operator have not read the plates correctly. To err Is human you know. For Instance if there should be a delay In the movement of the intestinal contents at a certain point, say in the region of the appendix, and yet you've had no pain In that^ region, have had no vomiting spells, j nor even % dull ache there, then i certainly there should be no cause for an operation,-Or appendicitis. If in the stomaeh the food remains j more than six hours, but the whole [ meal in slow in making ils entire i way through the canal, that doesn't j necessarily point to stomach trouble. U would appear as If your entire i Intestine la Just alow or sluggish. Sometimes there will ba a little speeding up in one portion of the intestine, and a delay ln other parts. And so physicians and X-ray operators see you every day for a number of days to watch the progress ot the meal throughout your Intestine. Now the plates show the same pictures to both, hut sometimes they do not agree as to what the plates signify. What Is my suggestion? That an X-ray then is not of use ln diagnosing conditions? Not at all. It Is one of the most valuable aids that medical selence has ever discovered. But If your physician and your X-ray man do not agree as to the findings It is usually safer to stick to your physician's advice. Why? Because with the X-ray or\rator, all he has to depend on is what his plates show him, Your physician haa all the other symptoms in his mind. How your illness began, your diet, vour loss of flesh, the location and kind of pain you suffer. He haa all this at h's disposal and the X-ray nlates besii \ \ He really has the best opportunity of getting at your trouble.

McRae gave an outline of the history of hla party, stating it embraced farmers, business men, labor men and a large section of women, there being 500 women canvassers In Vancouver alone. "We have reachrd tb'- stage when the old Khack must be torn down nnd rebuilt on sure foundations," the speaker said. Party affiliations and even personal friendships had to go. He then made a -survey of the old parties. Both said they had made no mistake?! Electora Apathetic The general complained of lack of support of the city press. The country press had been fair. The city press had seemed to have lost its sense of responsibility. He had addressed 700 meetings and thousands of Hearrhllghts had been distributed owing to lack of press support. Not Such a Crook! A little lady ln Nelson came to him after the meeting saying, after evoing him a moment. "You don't look like a crook alter all!" (Laughter.) lie recounted his experience ut the "toyal whitewash" commission, where he was asked no questions. It was the same with his supporters, the reason being that they came from both parties and km-w too much. Why Uld not officials try to collect his supposed income tax? Tha truth was he, Just like others, was living on his capital, trusting to Bee the dny when bis investment In the Western Canada Lumher company would return a dividend, if it were rot taxed out of existence. He owned 20 per cnt of the stock. This company paid J4O.O00 in 1914, $200,000 last year, and would at this rate be hurst up In five years. And still Oliver asked capital to Invest in the province! Big Personal Taxes Of personal taxes Oeneral McRae said toll check was for $50,000 per annum. He had been specially asked to mention his connection with Port Mann by a welt-known smelter foreman. To this be answered: •'Oliver has two planks— freight rates and Port Mann Oliver said I made a huge sum out of thc Mac- Kentie & Mann deal at Port Mann I never made a dollar out of this deal, nor did I Intend to, lffct a Cent Prom Port Mann "Ita 11 way men generally buy In urine other name, and they asked me to buy the property und regis - L- r the title In my own name.

It was purely a trust reposed In me as a measure of precaution to prevent the real object of the purchase being known so as In oheck any fictitious value which might be asked for the land. The seller had no business to know what my friends wanted to do with their purchase. This sort of agreement is made every day and Is perfectly all right."

BC, June 11 - Lieut.-Col. Fred Lister and Maj. I" Mallandaine addressed a meeting of 100 electors at South Slocan KrM.i;, evening, T. A. Whelldon being chtii»* man of the meeting. MY. Whelldon briefly spoke of local Instances of Injustices In the pail of the government, particularly In the case of the farmers' Institute, which was discriminated against. Major Mallandaine aald that Ih Colonel Lister the Conservatives had a candidate of excellent worth.' Ht had fought with distinction through the Boer war and had a remarkable record ln the great war. Colonel Lister was also a practical farmer. Born on a farm In Lincolnshire, England, he had practiced farming until he joined the colors for the Boer war. He came out to British Columbia after demobilisation and took up a farm, which he worked with his own labor, in the settlement which •Aas since named after him. No man could have worked harder for the welfare of the settlement snd In fighting for redress of the wroncs which had been Inflicted upon the soldier settlerm The speaker asked his hearers if a mnn with such a lecord both as a soldier and farmer was not likely to efficiently represent them In the house Colonel Lifter, the candidate, said the election cry of the Liberal party had been "abolish patronage," and yet the first act of this government had been the appoint meat to the •Judiciary of W. A. Macdonald. a man who hnd been forced out of public life fur contriving his elect Ion by plugged votes. A Record of Prodigality The record of the government *» one of prodigality and waste. 19Ifi, at the end of the Bowser regime, the debt of the province was J 2 5.000.000; and, today, this had increased to $ 7 3 .fni 11.000—this despite the fact that the annua) revenue had increased during that time from $6,- 300.000 to $10,400,000. An Individual example of waste Was tbe digging of a well In gravel at the town of Oliver, in the South Okanagan land development scheme, it depth of 14 feet at a coat of $3700, or $340 per cubic foot. The government tiad purchased this land, whicii consisied of a tract of gravel and sand, from oge of their friends at, a cost of Sfir.O.QOO. They had paid their agent a rakeof f of Jf.O.OOO in add it Ion to a commission of 10 per rent on the sale, and when complain 1 was made and pressure brought to bear by the opposition the ojily action taken by the government was to dismiss him. This agent had hitherto been in receipt of a salary of SHi a month. He mold well afford to exchange his Job for a straight to exchange his Job for u commission referred to. Another government folly was the Sumas lake drainage project. Commenced as the result of a byelection promise the land hnd already cost $200 per acre, and was still under water. At Camp Lister returned men had been Induced to take up land on the promise of work clearing it at the rat» nf H a dav. When the charing was finished they were told that there was no more work for them and that the cost of clearing would he chi.rged against the land This, In many Instances, brought the cost up to $500 or $600 an acre for the land., Aid Parmer and Miner Economy and efficiency were needed If elected he would support a system of loans at a low rate of interest to farmers to tide them over the had times, a live agrlgultural department, assistance to dairymen u build creameries, ami to fruit IfOVWI in the marketing and distribution of fruit. The s|»eaker gave instances of grossly unfair luxation of mining. Relief wa.s needed, ami help and encouragement should he extended to prospectors. They should, as was the case in the eld days, he paid to build trails to prospects, where necessary, and these would be worth thousands more than the cost of construction for the purpose of fighting fire. The iinmny so derived would grubstake the prospector for further efforts. Colonel Lister said he favored complete cessation of oriental Immigrate n, and that pressure should be brought to bear on Ottawa to this end. The candidate was enthusiastically cheered at fhe close of the meeting, wll Ich wns fid lowed by several vocai st los, refreshments and a dance.

CANUCKXLtSTARS BLANK TAMWORTH Baseball A* WO LEAGUER* PLAY IT CLASH RESULTS OVER SCORING TRACK EVENTS United States Objects to French Scoring Method in Olympic Games NEW YORK, June 11.—A clash between French and United States Olympic authorities over the system of points scored for the track and field competitions at Paris ln July, loomed today when Pred W. Rublen, secretary of the United States Olympic committee. Issued a statement declaring this oountry would not recognise the French decision to score events on the basis of 10 points for first place with the next five places graded from five points to one point. The French committee, according to Mr. Rublen, la not empowered to fix arbitrarily any point scoring system at all lor the Olympics. Five Points for First He pointed out that none haa been provided for by International authorities ln oharge of the games, but adds that so far aa this country is concerned, "The winners in each event will be credited with five points, with three points for second, two for third, and one for fourth, which is recognised method of scoring track and field events in the United States- Olympic officials base their objection to the French system on Ihe belief that It favors countries which have a few outstanding sturs, such as Finland.

Mr. Warton made no ex i ended argument against the La Follette planks, merely reminding the cdM*erition that the platform as bfcttttght ln from the committee hud btife approved hy every member ex- cepf the member frcm Wisconsin, and that the committee's action might be considered a fair cross-section of the •entlment of the convention.

Other high spots In the. platform are: United States adherence to the world ccurt as recommended -by President Coolidge; demand for sp-eedy prosecution of all wrongdoers in* official positions and condemnation of those who "strive fndlserim- Inntely to besmirch the names of the Innocent and undermine the confidence of the public in the government."

ELECTORS FOR TWO PARTIES SAYS BOWSER Conservative Leader Sees a Landslide Coming for the Opposition VANCOt'VKK, June 11.— The Liberal party has been much more careful with Its own money than It haa with public funds, if expenditures In the present election campaign are nny criterion, says W.

The fighting leader of the opposition is nnt H-fferlng from cold feet, at any rnte; nnd his references to the enemy were all in the old trenchant spirit. "Like Premier John Oliver," said he, "I don't know where the Liberal campaign funds are coming from, but Here is no dnuht that they nre there Wherever I go I am confronted with those excellent, if unflattering, portraits of the Ll tie ral candidates displayed without stint nn all the hoardings. Snnobody must be paying for them, but nobody knows who it is, cf course." Thow> Faithful Portraits Tbe Conservative leader was In great pod humor about the likenesses nf the Liberal standnrd-l.carers as conceived by their own artists. "I hope they reeogniat* themselves t( last." commented Mr. Bowser, "hut what would they have said If I had ever suggested that thnt was sort of men they really were?" "1 suppos.> I must congratulat tin »n upon the apparently rendition of their party excheq IVihaps they have been more saving with Iheir own monev than they tvere wilh that of the province 'The campaign predicted it would. into a straight fight between the Conservative party and the government forces," said Mr. Bowser, speaking of th'1 political contest.

The bill has been amended by the private bills committee in ;i number of particulars, but the QkftaflV which caused'most debate was that which provides that the act ahull not come into operation until and unless, the court declares the Presbyterian general assembly hud ...itiiority to agree to union. Two efforts were made today to have this amendment re*ctnd»?d, but both motions were ruled out of order. A motion w.ts passed, However, to include the report of thr committee, a record motion to te- scind, and this will bring the whole issue hefore the house, where the effort to strike out the amendment is to he renewed. Add Three Sections Three additional subsections were added by the house private bills committee this afternoon, to section 9 of the church union hill dealing with' nonconcuring congregations, as follows: 1. Allowing nont'oncurring congregations to organize as a PresbyNo'an, Methodist or Congregational church so long as they do not use the -unie of any of the uniting churches, such as "The Presbyterian church fn Canada." 2. diving the minority of a certain Mtn the right to demand a vote If the official board of the church does not provide for it.

The section relating to the powers of the powers of the commission which Is to determine the equities of non concurring congregations. was passed after some discussion wi'hjut InclndlTTg reference to the rights of j compensation of "nonconcurring members" of concurring congregations. Disregard Proposal The subsection dealing with the membership of the commission—three niemhers to represent each side— and three to he 'umpires—was also passed, the committee disregarding an jintluni-yiUt proposal that none of tho umpires should be members of anv of the negotiating churches.

But he was of tbe firm opinion that the Athletics would do hetter than hug eighth position In t!*s race—and even In the nresent disheartening slump of his club ho is confident that before long his boys will pull themselves togeth'-r and come through, Bound to Do Better "The Athletics have the staff, lie said, "and they are bound to do hetter than they have done thus far. They have n<»t yet hit their true stride. I look for them to find themselves in short order, and when they do. they will rise out of the rut and be up there in the first division. Barring Injuries, they should stay up among the first four until the end of the season. Connie Mack, who spent nearly $ir.'t,i'0() for Al Simmons. Paul Strand and Max Bishop last winter, in certain that his money was not wasted. He is especialtv fond of Simmons, the young outfielder he purchased from Milwaukee in the American Association. Bishop, who last season bunl'd tip Ihe Interna tional league as a member of Jack Dunn's champion Orioles, has been laid up. and Mack blames his defection to the second baseman's poor health. "Al Simmons is a great ball plav- er," opines the wily Connie. "He, alpng with Jack Hauser and Sammy Hale, are the only members of the team whn have been hitting at th-dr normal speed this spring. When (lalloway. 1'crklris. Miller and Welch get going ft will be a different story. Strand is capable of better work with the stick than he haa flashed so far. "None of the pitchers with the exception of Kd Rommel, have pitched winning ball. Roily Naylor will win many a ball game for us when ' the weather gels warmer. Old Amos Strunk still has plenty of hits left In his bat bag. and I think the team haa been strengthened greatly by the addition of such a good left- handed pinch bitter as this veteran." Last season when Mack was HI set to get somewhere with the Athletics, a series of injuries to his stars forced the club deep, deep into the second division after a great •purt during tho early months of the season. The jinx has already oautpit him this year in the guise of Max Bishops'!** Illness. If he can successfully shake It, his prediction that the Athletic* will finish ln the first division will probably c*oi« true.

R, Gould, Progressive, Asslnlbola. Mr. Gould complained that the terminal elevators at Kort William were making excessive profits. The discussion arose while trade and commerce estimates were under review, a discussion which ranged ft*om freight rates on the lakes to overages and marketing of live stock. The board of grain commissioners came ln |or r'onsidorbale reference. Touching on the inspection and weighing department of Ihe commission, Robert Gardiner, Progressive, Medicine Hat. said that in the crop year 1317-18, IS diffe-ent grades of wheat hnd been shown as going Into a Fort William elevator while only five came out. "I hope," said Hon. T. A. Ixnv. minister of trade nnd commerce, in replv, "to work out some plan that will remedy the evils complained of." Dangerous Proceedings On nn item of Jl.lOO.I'OO for the administration of the Canada Grain act, several Progressive members asked about the administration of the Vancouver harbor commissioners and the'lr critfiam was crystallized by Thomas Sales, Progressive, Saltcoats, who said It was a "dangerous proceeding" to create the harbor board there and give it full powers to regulate grain handling rates without the supervision of the Canadian grain commission. A Speakman, progressive, Bed Deer, emphasized the importance of having supervision by the grain commissioners nt all points where mixing was carried on. Those Freight Rates H. R. Spencer. Progressive, Battle River, asked if the grain commissioners had anything to do with the fixing of freltiht rates on the la'#\ Mr, Low replied that they had nnt. In the opinion of the g-aln commission the rates were ton high, he said. Mr. Spencer said that he was Informed that between points where there Ml nn competition, shippe* were held up by high rates while where there was competition the TtSee were cut. G. (J. Coote, Progressive. MacLeod, isked Mr. Low whet he" he was prepared to recommend that the commissioners' fee be reduced In view of the fact that last vear there had been n surplus over $400,000. To this Mr. Low replied that he would he verv glad to recommend n-ich ■ reduction if he felt satisfied that there would be a surplus next year. He pointed out that the result of H vears' operation was n surplus of but 194.000. Why Charge for Inspector? Mr. Coote remarked t!-.*t the mln- i«ter of agriculture Inspected apples, butter, eggs and other things free nf rharr*1. Why should there be a charge for grain Inspects? Mr. Low replied thnt the western farmers had the benefjj of using trovernment elevators 51 different points in the prairies. The capital expenditure on these elevators wan borne by the government without nny cost to the farmer. John Millar. Progressive. Qn'Applle. said a cargo of grain shipped recently from Vancouver hid brought five cents a bushel more than grain shipped pa Ht bound. He Inferred from 'his that the mixing ef grain at the head of the lakes h;*d dumaged the •eputation of Canadian grain and he urged that the inspection of crafn from Vnncouver to Moiitre.il should* be pul on a national basis so that Canadian wheat would be alilc to maintain a national reputation, "|i this connection he men- Coned the firm of Davidson and ■^mith. stating that a cargo of grain from their elevator graded No 3 had been regarded at Buffalo and classified as No. 4. l-Htcr It bad heen discovered that "Ihe Maha-g spout" it No. 1 elevator at Vance used foT mixing gr^in, was of the name type as equipment In the Davidson and Smith elevator. Thesi facts, he said, had led him to los- faith in the elevator of that com pany. Should Know 'Facts Hon. Dr. Manlon. Conservative V.,rt William, said he had known Messrs. Davidson and Smith for considerable time and had known of nothing shady proven against them. Mr Ooote.was nf thv opinion that some elevators "did very well by themselves'1 in the matter of mixing and overages. He mentioned particularly tbe overages In tho elevators of DtivldRMi and Smith. Mr. Manlon said that as Mr. Coote had stated that tbe D.ividson and Smith elevator had made overages amounting to fifl.OOO bushels In a single yenr, he proponed to give the overages made by the Grain Growers' Grain company elevator for a number of yenrs. Quoting from the report of Price, Water house A Co., he said That the overages from this house In 1912-13 totalled 47.975 buahels. In 1913-14 thev dropped to 33.3«0. The following year thev mounted up to 64.768 bushels. In 1916-19 tbey were 106.69!) bushels and In 1911-17, 16«,90l bushels. This was much more than twice the overage* in the Davidson and Smith elevator as quoted by Mr. Coote. Dr. M.iuiim said that he was not opposing legislation which would help the western farmers but he thought that thesf facts should be before the home to view of what the other members had aald.

We are all dead,'1 were the last words spoken by Henri Cleroux, chauffeur of tha Banque d'Hochelaga collection cur which waa rifled of $142,288 here on April 1, and charged with whoae murder Giuseppe Serafini, Louis Morel, Tony Frank, Leo Davis, Mike Valentino and Frank Qambtno are being tried in the king's bench court here. The above was the evidence given today hy Luclen Brunett, one of tha bank messengers ln the car. He had warned Cleroux who had paid no attention to his warning. Another bank messenger In the car, Fortier, who suffered a bullet wound in the hand In the holdup, has since had to have a finger amputated, blood poisoning having set in, lt was stated. M. Thlbodeau, another messenger, and Brunett failed to recognize any uf the accused at the bar as the men in the holdup whom they stated were all niasKi'd. Justice or Lynch Law? At the opening of the hearing this morning H. I.. Calder, K.C. crown prosecutor, warned that "if jve cannot, make it, clear that.In this city swift Juatlce will be meted out to the innocent and guilty aiike, then the only weapon which will be left ln our hands against crimes of this sort will be lynch law." The crown will endeavor to prove that Tony Frank not only agreed to furnish protection to the part i.-hu'iis In the holdup for a consideration but also gave them guns to carry out the crime. The crown will also endeavor ii prove that Louis Morel was t-een by different witnesses at various stages in the holdup and Its after events." .
