The young newspapennan has already given up his private fortune of $990,000 to the shareholders tn an endeavor to meet the losses caused when the papers in Miami, Los Angeles and Ban Francisco failed. "I am giving up my heritage as purely a moral obligation, to my stockholders." Mr. Vanderbilt says. "Legally I no longer have any obligation.

Experts On Way to Conduct an Investigation Into Alleged Smoke Menace From Trail in Washington SPOKANE, Wash.. July 8—Assuring Congressman Bam. B. Hill of the Fifth district that there would be no delay in the government investigation of the extent and cause of damage to lands affected by the Trail (B. C.) smelter fumes, Mr. Hill Saturdsy received a communication from Henry O. Knight, chief of the bureau of chemistry and solids, United States department of agriculture, that experts left for this region. >__. $-10,000 POR INQl'IRY Congressman Hill, who Is in Spokane, said that Dr. Skinner, assistant chief of the chemical and technical investigations of the bureau, was coming with Soil Inspector Strahorn and that the investigation, for which $40,000 was appropriated, wlll go ahead immediately, although at this time no agreement has been reached wtth Canada on the final scope of Questions to be submitted to an International Joint commission. It ls expected both men wlll arrive here Monday night or Tuesday. Mr. Hill said that he telegraphed the department of agriculture that he was opposed to any delay In the Investigation after tht organization of Stevens county farmers told him they were under the impression that nothing could be done until the questions to be submitted to the commission hod been framed. 1)11.1.

It ls a most serious-situation and Senator Jones and Senator Dill have been working with me to get action for the last three years. The fact that a foreign corporation ls Involved of course makes this matter one of International scope. A few small claims have been settled, but the damage ls so vast and of such permanent character that the residents of the region must be grai.ted fair and adequate compensation." Mr. Hill was assured by Knight in his letter that the work Is being organized as rapidly as possible and the reconnaissance survey ln preparation for developing the Investigations ln the district would go ahead regardless of the international question being determined before the commission.

G. E. Negotiation Fade; Dunning Can't Come • VICTORIA, B.C., July 8— Government hopes of some definite announcement from Ottawa regarding P. G. E. negotiations have vanished with the announcement that Hon. C. A. Dunning who was to come west and make some statement, will not reach the province before election day and has in fact not even completed his plans, TRAIL, B.C., July 8.—At one of the greatest political meetings in Trail's history last night, held in K.P. hall, Hon. S. F. Tolmie, Conservative leader, received an ovation when he entered the hall after coming down from Rossiand, again when he was1 introduced to the audience as "the next premier of British Columbia," and again, at the conclusion of his great address, in which he outlined the Conservative policy for securing the development of the province, by extension of its agriculture, en couragement to mining, utilizing o its raw materials, and its gen eral industrial expansion. Dr Tolmie paid only passing attention to Premier MacLean, this being incidental to the discus sion of the Conservative policy. Both Dr. Tolmie and L. J, Ladner, M.P. for South Van couver, made reference to the great record for good work made by J. H. Schofield, and the latter, who spoke briefly, shared in the ovations. ARE PEOPLE SATISFIED? "We are now moving toward the winning post on the 18th, stated Dr. Tolmie. "Are we satisfied, or do we desire a change? Are we satisfied with a debt quadrupled in 12 years, with expansion of expenditure many times, with having the largest per capita taxation In the Dominion? Are we satisfied with the public works system, under which friends of the government obtain the contracts, snd under which the estimates are habitually exceeded?" The Sumas farmers were told the drainage project would cost 11,500,000. After it was apparent the cost was going to exceed that, the government obtained their consent to a figure of • 1,800.000. In the end the actual cost was far In excess of S4.000.000. Then when the farmers objected, the govern-, ment put an act through ths legislature debarring them from the right of going to law on the matter. LIVELIHOOD FIRST PROBLEM "The government tells you that the P.O.E. problem is the great problem. I admit lt la a great problem, but it is not the greatest. The greatest problem ln British Columbia ls how to keep the boys and girls that we raise and educate, at home after they grow up; to develop a prosperity here so that all our own people can make a living. Compared with this, the P.O.E. is an Important incident." declared Dr. Tolmie. amid echoing applause. As to the premier's statement that he had every confidence that he would be able to dispose of the P.G.E. st an early date, Hon. C A. Dunning. Just previously, answering Hon. H. H.Stevens' Question ln the Ottawa house, said no bargain had been made, and added ln reply to further questioning, that none could be made without ratification by parliament. Parliament having now prorogued, lt was obvious that Premier MacLean was not in a position between now and election day to make any binding bargain. WHO AUITATED Kl Tl UN OF LANDS.' Premier MacLean was also making a great blow about negotiating for the return of the railway lands, put up by the province to assist construction of the C.P.R. Aa the railway developed Into a great national undertaking, became clear that every province ought to contribute proportionately, and that British Columbia ought not to be thf only province to assume responsibility for IU construction. Por this reason, the Conservatives under Sir Richard McBrlde pressed for the return of ths land grant made by the province to the Dominion, and later. In parliament at Ottawa, General Clarke and Mr. Lad* ner, Conservative members for this province, continued the fight. Granting of a royal commission for consideration of the maritime province claims made It clear, said Dr. Tolmie, that the right of British Columbia to return of the lands could not longer be disputed. He therefore placed on tha order paper a motion expressing the view of the house that the lands ought T IS SUNK AFTER POUNDING Eighty of 300 Person* On Board Were Passengers and Only Few Saved; Lifeboats Launched but Smashed to Pieces by Waves i _ 1 CAPTAIN STAYS WITH VESSEL TO END; KILLS HIMSELF WITH REVOLVER Angry Sea Tosses Passengers and Crew .Onto Rocks; Survivors Tell of Terrible Storm and Little Chance for Life; No Rescue Available SANTIAGO, Chile, Jaly 8.—Two hundred and ninety- one lives were lost when the army transport Angamos sank Saturday in the bay of Arauco, according to information given out by the ministry of marine. Seventy-six of the victims were passengers. Only five members of the crew were saved, according to early reports of the accident. The captain committed suicide on the bridge of the vessel. Details of the disaster and the cause of the tragedy have not been received by marine or other officials. • The Angamos was a single screw steamer of 5975 tons and a speed of 14 knots. She was built in Scotland in 1890 and was refitted by the Chilean government two years ago. Wireless dispatches tonight said that the cruiser Zenteno and the destroyer Williams arrived at the scene of the disaster, which is south of Lebu, off the southern coast of the republic, but had found no wreckage of the vessel. Other ships are being sent to the locality. The transport left Punta Arenas, southernmost city in the'world in the Straits of Magellan, with 291 persons on board. Of these, 251 were crew»- and 76 passengers. The latter included a number of women and children. The ship was loaded with coal at Punta Arenas, the fuel being intended for use of Chilean naval vessels in northern waters and the passengers were mostly laborers and their families en route to the nitrate fields in northern Chile. They were traveling at government expense. Several stops were made en route and while a few of the original passenger list may have debarked, it is thought here that additions to the passenger quota brought the total number aboard to more than 300. LATE IN DAY The storm was encountered late in the day. For several hours the Anagamos struggled to make headway against the wind and waves, but she wss badly battered. Then her rudder was smashed and she started to drift toward the breakers. At 10 p m. she struck. With no rescue ln sight, attempts were made to launch lifebots, but they capsized In the tremendous seas almost as rapidly ss they struck the water, and their human freight was tossed on the rocks by the breakers or drawn back Into the angry sea. The vessel filled rapidly and three hours after she struck was virtually burled under the waves. Then she broke In two and the few who remained aboard were thrown Into the sea. What they experienced is told by a survivor. Andres Carrlllo. a sailor He could not explain how he wai against a rock. I do not recall what took place afterward. When 1 recovered consciousness, I found myself, stark naked, sprawled upon the beach. I recall that 1 could but barely see the light of the ship. "In that moment I heard a sound as of a revolver shot, which I think was caused by my commander.

I made my way to the nearest house, but when I knocked at the door, the occupants did not wish to admit me, thinking me a tramp. It took me an hour to convince the housewife that I really needed assistance. "After I had rested a bit we set out ln search of other survivors and we found three, all naked as wu I." The other survivors picked up by CaiTlUo are Jose Agulla, Humberto Sepulveda and Humberto Diaz, all army conscripts. Here Is revealed the story of Jose Agulla. an army conscript, who was cast ashore on a piece of wreckage, as told In the hospital at Beten: "A terrific storm raged," he said, "in the midst of It the ship lost her rudder and she was dashed between two great rocks about 10 o'clock Friday night. She was about 300 yards from the shore. "You must Imagine the scene aboard Until 1 o'clock In the morning we were fighting between life and death while the boat settled down ln the water rapidly. The continuous blasts of the ship's whistle failed to bring help. hows HM \sih-:i» "When It became plain that there was not the most remote chance of rescue, there was nothing left to do but launch the lifeboats This was done, but they were tossed about with such violence by the waves that they sank almost Immediately.

Graham Crulckshank. of Trail. A contingent of Conservative ladles from Nelson wae also present. Al'DIKNTE IN OROVE The picturesque grove waa the setting for the picnic, the speakers standing under a central tree, while the audience of around 300 waa seated In a semi-clrcle within the clearing. Another part of the ranch was parking ground for a score or two of cars. After Dr. Tolmie, Dr. L. E. Borden, and L. J. Ladner. M P., had spoken, a short time was devoted to a reception for the Conservative leader. Following departure of the visitors for Trail, Colonel Lister made his address, and the picnic wound up with a social time and the serving of refreshments. , B. I. M. Power of Thrums was chairman of the meeting, and Mr. and Mrs. Chalmers were busy host and hostess. TIRED OF DECEPTION, SAYS BORDEN Dr. Borden, contrasted the large gathering to hear pr. Tolmie with the fizzle staged hy tie Liberals the previous evening at South Slocan. when Thrums contributed only two persons to the audience. This illustrated, he said, the point that the people had reached their verdict, and were not Interested ln what "tbe Liberals are dishing out to them" thla time. The Liberal campaign in the province at large was one of deception from start to finish, he said, and they had come with false utterances so long that the people "had now got wise lo them." He referred to the large number of workers employed on the roads since the government had decided the election date. The worst feature of the government's road administration, he said, was the enormous waste of money. Another feature was that roads were held out as a reward for electing .Liberals. Hon. A. M. Manson told the people of Princeton that they would probably get trie Hope-Princeton road before the next election, provided they elected Mr. C. H. Tupper. INSINCERITY ON SOCIAL LEGISLATION As insincere was their claim with regard to social legislation, for most of the benefits now enjoyed by the workers and the people generally were to he traced to legislation initiated by tbe Conservatives. The health Insurance that the Liberals talked of making an inquiry about was taken up years ago by the Lritish Columbia Medical association, cn the executive of which he had served for several years, the association holding a survey and engaging acknowledged experts who made lengthy studies and submitted reports. It had now arrived at the stage where it was ready for general dicussion, and the Liberals talked as if they were the authors of lt. Under Dr. Tolmie's policy there would, be further social advance, while If this riding sent back Colonel Lister, and otherB did the 6ame, the province would develop a prosperity even greater than that of the McBrlde era. (Applause). Dr. Tolmie declared he had never attended a political meeting in such a picturesque setting as this one. He noticed that the beauty was continued along the base line. (Laughter). HIb tour to the present, he said, fcad been markedly successful, and from the Intense Interest the people had shown, it was clear that they were giving the issues deep consideration. One of the Liberals' claims was that they were entitled to all the credit for all the social legislation that had ever been adopted ln British Columbia or in Canada, This could be dismissed [jtwtfte light of the acore or so of. ■ffiactments made by the Conservatives ln their 14 years of office ln thla province. -MucLEAVS 8LAM AT OTTAWA "Premier MacLean's claim that he should be elected because he stands ln with the King government and will be able to put through a sale of the P. G. £., and I won't be able to make H, ls an awful slam at both the Dominion and the provincial government," said Dr. Tolmie. "Prom what I know of Ottawa, 1 refuse to believe this charge against the King government. Premier Mac- Lean is judging lt by the system on which he himself operates. "What a thing to be told the world, that the Canadian government will refuse to pay attention to representations on behalf of the 600,000 people of this province lf they elect the Conservatives! 'The premier's argument amounts to claim that If the people do not elect the Liberals, the Liberal government at Ottawa wlll turn a deaf ear to British Columbia. If that is true, then our basis of government is gone, ahd we should select only governments approved by Ottawa!" INEXPERIENCED IN MALADMINISTRATION As to his being Inexperienced in administration, as alleged by Premier MacLean, perhaps he was in certain lines, though having 12 years of public service to hlB 'credit, against Dr. MacLean's 13'^. True, he had been ln charge of a great department of state at Ottawa, but he was not experienced in having commissions Investigate his department. He was also inexperienced in the matter of speadlhg more than his estimates and ln running hts deport' ment into debt, In vhich respect the premier, in administering the province, shone. Nor was he experienced in bungling four out of five of the big projects undertaken In his department, as the Liberal government at Victoria had done, Sumas and Mervllle being only two Instances. He had not tried to cultivate the bottom of a lake while millions of acres of good dry land were still available. He had also never applied the patronage system, and never discharged an employee on the ground of political partisanship. (Applause). Dr. MacLean's criticism that Dr. Tolmie waa using federal members in this campaign, while he himself was using none, tickled the rlaables of the audience, when Dr. Tolmie pointed put that there was an excellent reason why Dr. MacLean was not using tham —there was only, one Liberal member from the province, and he was only now limping toward British Columbia. MAN ON LAND MIST BE STABLE Outlining his development policy. Dr. Tolmie declared he was keenly tllve to the necessity of putting the man on the land ln a stable position. He described his own up-bringing on a farm, where, among hia other ditties, re was lord high executioner, and how the family ate mutton In all forms all summer lpng till he was ashamed, tp look a sheep in the face, and at other times specialized on corn beef, while if they failed to sell their farm produce in Victoria there was nothing else they could do with lt but eat lt. Accordingly he, knew some of the difficulties of the man on the. land, who in fact was today still pioneering. His proposal waa to * ascertain the commodities for which a profitable market could be developed, and then to secure their production. In regard to cattle, for Instance, while the, four states to the south employed 75 per cent of their range, and exported a' great surplus, this province used only 6 per cent of Its range, and bought abroad. Surely both the raising of various meat animals, and dairying, could be profitably developed to a much larger scale. Then there was the example of Washington, that produced various specialties, such as asparagus, which even went to Ontario, to the detriment of the Ontario growers. PROTECTION AGAINST IH MPING "We should have the assistance of our friends at Ottawa with a dumping clause," said Dr. Tolmie. who said he told the people or Saanlch, at his nomination, that he was going to Ottawa next day to work fQr the dumping clause. Tlie result was that next day Premier MacLean came out with a statement that he was appointing Mr. Pattullo to personally represent the province at the conference at Ottawa Mr. Pattullo did not attend the conference, and Premier King put off Mb decision from day to day, "tp fool us, or perhaps I should say, to gratify his prairie supporters," and let the session end without doing anything. Yet, said Dr. Tolmie, when Ontario asparagus was selling at four bunches for 35 cents, Carloads from. Washington Tolmie said proof was presented to ' commission that Washington were dumped in Canada at a prtce I 40 cents, when the box itself costf cents. "Let us wake up in Canada," _ claimed the Conservative leader, "«■ run our country for tha benefit | the people who live ln it—for I people who have to dig out stumps, and who have to face years, and every difficulty." Mill.IONS POR IOREION GOODS The millions of dollars spent Canadians for foreign mai^UfactUJH was next referred to by the leader, «H advocated a definite policy of utllizH raw materials at home, and buildj up industries here, which themself fyrnlshed large consuming markets I other lines of production, chief amj them agriculture. Touching on the patronage ayi*> new ln force, Dr. Tolmie said lt v abominable that a rancher ahoT have to go hat in hand to a forenf and make a pretence as to his polld feelings before he could get a Job.! which he was justly entitled. If ariys| was. (Applause >. ^^ Similarly, the civil service should. I secure. Postmaster-General Veniot l the King government admitted 400 postmasters and postmistress some of them a quarter of a centjH In service, and some pf them, aged/^ alleged political partisanship. "T disgraceful conduct will not be pea ted at Victoria when the C servatlves take office," declared Tolmie, who referred to his recordl never having dismissed a federal cL servant on the ground of partlssnshfl In general, the law would be . ministered honestly and fearlessly. Dr. Tolmie said Colonel Lister made a splendid record overseas, an equally good one at Victoria, wl he was found to be honest, capaJgf] and a credit to the riding. ■ He declared everything pointed great victory, and urged his hssr| to do their part to send Col. back with a bumper majority for fid government. (Prolonged applause).] LIBERALS WANTED ^^^^ TOLMIE, SAYS LADNER _ Mr. Ladner, speaking briefly, declafl that by every major test the MacL government wag found wanting. Unl the constitution, it was the right a the duty of the electorate to Judge] government on Its record—by perfot ance and not by promise. Dealing with the enormous pendlture of the government ln last 13 years—with borrowings, aad GOO.OOO—the government's excuse tl It had spent a lot for roa£s did L hold water, for its road expendltuH ln the 13 years Were only ♦H.OOfM of that total. If Premier MacLean Jtad to __ tend that Dr, Tolmie shpuld not] were dumped on the market and broke ">«.« premier on account of Inexnesi the price, imported No, 2 strawberries were selling ln competition with No. 1 Canadian and depressing the price of the latter, and various Imported fruits, of Inferior grades, sold heavily by advertising, left no market for the Canadian article when lt later arrived. Por instance, California apricots, arriving first, filled thc demand before the Okanagan came on. leaving no market for the latter. LIBERALS AGAINST l.OIAI, DUTIES When Tom Coventry, Conservative, at the late provincial session. Introduced a resolution asking the Ottawa government to place on agricultural products from the United States the Eemc duties that the United states places on the Canadian agricultural products, every Conservative member voted for it, but the Liberals, headed by Premier MacLean, and Hon. E. D. Barrow, voted en bloc against giving Cnnadlan producers an equal deal. Referring to the Dcmlnlon-wide tar ence, then he was hard up for argument, commented Mr. Ladner, said he had himself heard Hon. W.I Fielding say in the house of comrnojl that of all the Canadian ministers i agriculture In this generation, I equalled Dr. Tolmie, and put m Liberals themselves would like to h*fl had him occupy that position them. (Applause).

B.C., July 8—"There H no member ol the Victoria houae more deecnradly popular than James H. Schofleld," declared Hon. Dr. S. F. Tolmie, ln Knight* of Pythla* hall Saturday erentng. The speaker stated the Con- l**rv»tt?e candidate In Rossland-Trall treated his colleagues ln a manly way, "e— rstdy to meet them halfway, and when he wanted consideration was always accorded It. I The pedple of British Columbia had ,come to * time of decision. On th* eighteenth of July, they would hav* an opportunity to say lf they approved of the way ln whloh the Liberal government had mismanaged the affairs of the province; of the way ln which contracts had been let to Its friends Instead of the lowest bidder; of the limited population of 600.000 people in this Vast province: of the unbuslness like administration of the P. O. E.; of the broken promises of 191(1, 1920 and 1934: and of the ones being made in 1028. which would suffer a like fate. When the time came, the speaker believed, the 'people of the province would show that It was Indeed time for a change. numerous dispatches were appearing In the papers to- the effect that Harry Oale wa* taking to himself credit for Appropriations for wharfs, cooling plant* Hind other federal grants for the West Kootsnav district. Dr. Tolmie assured hjs audience that there was In the (house no more painstaking, hardworking member than ' W. K. Esling, to Who** unceasing efforts was due all credit' for any favors obtained by the district. DEBT 1NCHKASKS The Liberals claimed that prosperity had come to the province under their regime, but, said the Conservative leader, the provincial debt In the 12 year* of Liberal regime Increased from |IB,«77,000 to $85,435,000. though by some clever manipulation of figures, the minister of finance waa making lt look considerably term. The per capita pu Jumped from 114.40 to $40 10 In the same length of time, and was now higher than ln any other province ln ill Canada. Contracts undertaken exceeded the amount of estimates by large sums. rhe Sumas scheme was a fair example ;>f how the people had been mulcted, to say nothing of the Cariboo road and Hher *uch prelects, declared Dr. Tolmie. EXCEED ESTIMATES The first rule of a sane administration was to vote money with which to carry on for the fiscal y»ar. In th* federal house any minister who exceeded the estimated cost of carrying on tils department would find himself ln serious trouble. It did not bother them any ln Victoria. Everyone was familiar with the maladministration of the P. O. E, the re- lease of Foley, Welsh Is Stewart from their agreement and the futll* attempts to complete and operate lt. until now Ita Indebtedness was $58,000,000. Th* return of the Peace River block „as urged by Lieutenant-Governor Dunsmuir, the late Sir Richard McBrlde, Leon J. Ladner and others, whu* Dr. Tolmie had himself placed on the order paper last year the question which had brought thinga to a head. The Liberals had never Interested themselves ln this matter till within the last two years. Dr. McLean promised to reduoe taxation by means of th* sale of the P. O. E. and the return of the raUway lands. Mr. Dunning, minister of railways, stated on the floor of the house that the sale of the road had not been consumated, and would have to be ratified by the house of commons, which would not meet until next January. The Dominion records showed thst the cost ot administering the railways lands far exceeded the receipts Jrom them. HOINO TO WIN "Dr. McLean says the Liberals have no confidence ln me.. I didn't expect they would have," said Dr. Tolmie. WhUe I am leader of the party It wlU b* run to our own satisfaction—not their*. I am throwing my 226 pounds Into the fray and Intend to win! The premier had remarked that ne wasn't going to worry about criticisms from "Uttle fellows" who had never handled over $3000 ln their lives. This was ln poor taste from a man In his position, asserted the speaker. Laurier I and McDonald were both poor men. and the country had been built up by poor men. DEVELOP MARKETS The government should always be on the qui Vive to further the Interests of sll the people—alway* on the lookout for a market for Its product*. Zach part of the country was dependent on the other, dlrscUy or Indirectly. There were two many leaks. The best youth of the country was going south of the line. Seventy-five per cent of the meats consumed here were brought from outside the province. In eplte of the fact thst within the borders were 180,000 acres or range land with thousands of acres going to waste. Mining was one of the greatest industries ln the Dominion. One of the alms of the Conservative party when It was returned would be to give assistance to the man making a beginning, Imposing taxation on the man who made good and oould afford to pay. Capital was needed In the province and must not be frightened away by high taxation. B. C. must offer equal Inducements with Ontario and Quebec The Trail smelter was doing wonderful work a* a manufacturer of raw materials'. M.AV NO FAVORITES The Liberals said lf the Conserve' tlves were elected all road work would r.top. It frequently did under Liberal regime—the day after election said Dr. Tolmie. The Conservative party was opposed to the patronage system and would play no fauorltes. No civil service employee would be discharged except for incompetence. Prospect were good throughout the province' for, the Conservatives to be returned with a good working majority L. A. Campbell, who acted as chairman of the meeting, thought that since the one big industry of this section, smelting and refining, paid ! one-tenth the total revenue of the province, this district was certainly entitled to better roadw. Motor cars had come to stay snd were increaslne dally. At a recent meeting of the I associated boards of trade, Lieut.-Oov Johnson' of Washington stated that $150,000 had been set aside to complete th* state road from Marcus to . ...■—II..HI I.I II.M, .1 ,111 p.l l| Patterson, and seemed anxious to know If Britiah Columbia would build a similar road. This was one of the things whleh the' Conservatives Would do when they esme Into power. Another was fixing th* road between Rossiand snd Trail. The company had been given the assurance that the road would be hard surfaced, but Is was now In worse shape than ever. When that wa* repaired, he wanted to see some work don* on the Ross- land'Nelson road. liORDEN PRAISES TOLMIE Dr. L. E. Borden of Nelson paid tribute to the many stifling qualities of Dr. Tolmie, whom he characterised aa an ideal leader, one who was worth following, Such men as Hon. W. S. Fielding had pronounced him tme of the out-standing men of Canada. The Liberals had posed as the friend of labor so long that they had almost come to believe tt themselves. Dr. MacLean ln a recent speech had gone bo far as to say that ln no place ln Canada had the Conservatives enacted any legislation which was beneficial to labor. The doctor then went on to enumerate tbe various pieces of social legislation which had been enacted under Conservative rule. The speaker dealt at some length on the proposed health Insurance, stating that ln his opinion lt should be kept out of politics and worked out between the three most Interested —labor, medicine and the state. Varloua items of alleged bribery were cited by Dr. Borden, who also took up some cases of mal-admlnlstratlon of the Mothers' Pensions set. In conclusion, the doctor pledged himself, If elected, to work for the good of the whole district, not just merely Nelson. VANCOUVER READY L. J. Ladner, M. P.. on being introduced, said he had come from Vancouver to bring a message of good news—six Conservatives would be elected In Vancouver clty. With one-hall the population of the entire province, Vancouver had gone without cabinet representation for six years, and was more than ready for a change. Until the electors rise to statesmanlike conception of the affairs of state, we will not have statesmanlike legislation," Mr. Ladner stated. "The people must learn to think for themselves. One unfailing test which may be applied ls the record of the government. Apply Intelligent thought to a review of what the 12 years of Liberal regime have meant. Responding to a bribe of roads or bridges ls putting approval on corruption." EXPENSES ENORMOI'S "Compare the taxes of British Columbia with those in other provinces or with those In B. c. under Conservative rule—three times what they were ln 1918 or twice what they are in other provinces. Just for one example, the total ordinary expenses for the year ln this province are $20,000- 000. In Alberta they are $11,000; In Saskatchewan, with twice our population, lt ls only $12,000; and ln Manitoba, only $8,000. "The government would try to sidestep the Issue If it could. Don't be bound by bUnd party prejudice. Listen to the candidates and their leaders Make them fasten their arguments on the essential things," urged Mr Ladner. "No Liberal with a high sense of honor can support the MacLean government, and the people as a whole »re proclaiming 'Its tlm* for a change I'" CANADIAN IN TIE FOR CONAN DOYLE SHIELD WiU Shoot Off Monday Against Two King's Prize Winners TRAIL, B.C., July 8—Trail's new $35,00 city haU wlll be completed and ready to occupy some time before the end of this month, says W.

Grant, markets commlaaloner »t Calgary, la quoted aa stating that no American strawberries are being dumped ln Calgary, Vary likely, not, but whether Calgary tt being flooded with American berries or not has Uttle real bearing on the anti-dumping question. Berries and other fruits, and vegetables, are being dumped at other places ln Canada and this dumping ls injuring the Canadian producer. Directly s> shipment of American produce la dumped in Canada lt automatically Mara down the price of that commodity, and of others akin to it, all over the Dominion. The fact is that the anti-dumping •ct has had the teeth taken out of lt by .the Liberal government at Ottawa, to please Its friends in the prairie provinces. And lt la also a fact beyond question that effective anti-dumping measures are essential unless we are going to leave our Canadian producers at the mercy of the American dumpers. Right at this moment, the Canadian manufacturer of a non-perishable product, such, as canned goods, has under the act and on account of the nature of &ta product, the most effective antidumping protection. Yet this protection Is denied the fruitgrower and farmer- It Is perfectly true that the matter ie a federal one, but Liberal cabinet ministers and Liberal speakers In thla province show an astonishing disregard for the Interests of our own people when they, tn effect, support Ottawa's action by endeavoring to make lt appear that our industry Is not injured.

That Body of Yours ■V 4AMU W. BARTOH. SUa What Stomach Can and Can't Stand Did you ever stop to think that you have two eyes, two nostrils, two ears, and only one mouth? Perhape Nature, the "friendly force behind us, had a motive ln this. However everywhere ln the body we see that there ts always enough of muscle, of nerve, of bone, of bloodvessels to do the work necessary Ior that particular part of the body. There are two lungs, two kidneys, and in so many ways we have the knowledge that Nature Is always Just a little ahead of our needb. An editorial ln one of our health Journals calls attention to other ways that Nature watches over us. For Instance many substances we take into our stomach would be poisonous if they were injected directly into the blood- But by the time the digestive Juices of the stomach and intestines work on them, and then as they go directly ln the blood to the liver, the iiver separ ates out anything that would be harm ful to the body. Similarly with little- organisms that get Into the body, the body processes are usually able to fight them off. He pointed out further the wonderful way the alimentary or digestive tract took care of articles that were swallowed either by accident or intentionally, and yet this soft delicate tube carried them safely twenty-five to thirty feet and thence out of the body. An open safety pin swallowed by an infant ia a typical example of what can go safely through this alimentary tract. Needles, tacks, glass, Iron, almost any and every kind of metal object has been swallowed without Injury to the stomach. At London, Ontarla a demented Individual who had heen swallowing various objects for years finally had her stomach opened up and 2500 sparate objects were removed, thc total weight being six to seven pounds. There was no evidences of bleeding, of ulceration or other damage to the stomach wall, and her stomach was up ln its normal position a short time after the operation. And yet careless eating, irregularity of meals, worry .mental overwork can so upset the chemical processes of thc stomach that an ulcer forms tn this very stomach lining. It has been well said that man's worst enemy ls man himself. Careful chewing of food and a well balanced diet, food not too cold' nor too hot, regularity of meals, five to six hours apart lf possible, ls all tl'.at Nature asks of you ln return for her wonderful care.

Wholesale and Retail "Quality Hardware" NELSON, B.C. BOX 1050 'Sky High' By GERALD 8. REEK ♦- Old Dobbin—an affectionate nickname for the faithful nag which pulled the one-time milk wagon. Old Dobbin passes to the discard, but young Dobbin skims aloft 10 times faster than the progeny of Pegasus. The De Haviland moth plane circling our hills stimulates odd reflection on thia present speedy medium of transport. By normal process of organic evolution man Is bred an earthlan: has yet to develop the air sense. The sea sense has taken centuries of time to mature. Newspapers dally record wondrous feats of sustained and hazardous flying, though flying Is still comparatively new adventure. The day will dawn, one supposes, when crowded roadways will be eased of tremendous traffic pressure, and aerial com will ride the blue. Millions still remember their first motor car; to drive now ls as common as riding a bicycle was ln the gay nineties. THE SKY THE LIMIT Man will doubtless fly more and more. Some day the aerial blue will be as crowded with aeroplanlc flivvers as are our highways today being worn to gravel dust by earthy petrol chariots. Our grandchildren wlll sktm aloft as an evening or holiday recreation. "Ollding through the even' "On a sunbeam, swift as a shooting star In autumn thwarts the night. So far, bumping the bumps In the clouds has no attraction for me. Like the coon, I prefer terra flrma. The more firmer, the less terror, A trench- bound Tommy, watching an aerial dogfight, remarked to Ole Bill, "I'd hate to be up there in one of them things." Bill sucked his walrus mustache, and succinctly replied: "I'd bloomln' well hate to be up there without one!" Flying leaves precious little margin for accidents. There Is nothing up there on which to hang your hatl As yet, we associate the plane principally as a means of destruction—in terms of loaded tons of lethal containers. Yet, but for the exigencies of war, we would still be groping toward a solution of many aeronautical problems. But what a fearful price was paid. "PER Alt.HA. AD ASTRA How one admired above all the tads, many teen age, who soared aloft to give battle to our one-time enemy. How frightful the casualties* Men and machines hurtling earthward crashing to pulp and splinters. How one loathed the Oothas London-bound with deadly bombs; coastal mlchrophones warned but could not prevent disaster. A Frenchman in the sixteenth «en- tury, of extraordinary erudition, conceived' the ultimate practicality of the flying machine as known today. His writings are on record in Paris. Considered a charlatan, he was treated accordingly. Our classical studies may remind you that Icarus endeavored to soar on elaborate wings fashioned from bird feathers. Icarus doubted, but Daedalus, hts dad, insisted the effort be made. Poor Icarus found a watery grave. The old man himself, according to mythology, actually flew from Crete to Italy, which only goes to show that some people have all the luck. The lost continent of Atlantis ls credited with remarkable aeronautical achievements. But whatever the lean results heretofore, some idealist ever cherished 'the hope of the conquest of the air, hence the Moth, and its flying brethren, large and small. One wonders ■ •*■•• what next? Some day we may learn to fly—without wings. Commercial airplanes now operate on schedules equally as sure and safe as earth and waterborne craft. Perhaps this, ln some cases, is not saying very jnuch. The high standard of comfort and the meticulous care taken to ensure the safety of the traveling public have brought the cross country and channel traffic to a high pitch of perfection, and hazard of life and limb ls hardly in excess of ordinary travel mediums. Nowadays, people, pressed for time, or for love of adventure, who have pockets a little deeper than thc average, taxi to aerodrome, and purchase a ticket for the Pullman air liner as nonchalantly as they formerly requested the booking clerk for transportation to Paris, Rome or Berlin by rail and sea.

Rosllyn moved restlessly about the house. She found the library, but could not settle down to read. Always her thoughts wandered. In mists of disappointment and of pain. The first morning of her honeymoon! What a travesty lt was! Oh I for brains and education, with which' to hold a man like Landis! She must study to improve herself. She must do everything to try and be upsides with fascinating women 'such as — "Lydia Harbrook!" said the voice of truth within her—hateful, cruel truth! But never, never would she emulate Lydla's hardness and her selfishness. She—Rosllyn—would devote herself to Landis* happiness. Didn't love beget love, in Its turn? She would win her husband's heart, lf human power could compass it. And—to that end—she must get knowledge of the world, of how to act, and dress, and talk. Her constant 'faux pas,1 and her lack of 'savolr falre' Jarred on her bridegroom, and she knew it. Ohi for a kind and candid friend! She couldn't visualise Landis—hsd she wanted so to see him—ln the role of cicerone. He was far too well-bred ever' to point her errors out to her. Only his compressed Ups and a quizzical look about the eyes gave evidence of her social blunders. There was no woman she could turn to. Her aristocratic mother-in-law aroused a shyness ln her that at times was almost overwhelming. A 'grand? dame' of the old achool, and In her own especial way almost as granite- hard as lovely Lydia. Mrs. Ridgeway Was a queen who condescended to her subjects, rather than a kind and loving guide. , In the gloomy library, Rosllyn dug out a dusty tome by . . . Aristotle. The Greek philosopher might help her to a better art of living. Hadn't that been the goal of all the Greeks? But she learned phrases were beyond her. It was getting for lunch time, and the idea struck her that, despite the rain, she would go out and look for Landis. The freah air would do her headache good, maybe. Donning a mackintosh, she set off across the fields ln the direction of the wood where the trout pool was situated. All the worls smelt sweet, and from the pine trees rose a heady 'tang' that the incessant rain brought put. Rosllyn's spirit lifted. Mightn't the sun break through for her, both literally and metaphorically? In the first sense it did—before she reached the trout pool. Through a rift of sombre clouds lt glinted palely down on Landis, in his shiny oil-skins, sitting on a fallen tree, with hla fishing tackle on the ground beside him. He did not em her. and her footsteps on the mossy earth were soundless. • Her heart leapt at that glimpse of 'CONSTRUCTION' WORKERS HEAR 'NEXT PREMIER' Dr* Tolmie, From Steps of Hall gives Pungent Speech to Men at Noon Hour OUTLINES PLANS FOR MAKING MORE WORK VMill Abolish Patronage System; Leader and Party Luncheon Guests; See Power Plant SOUTH SLOCAN, B.C., July 8 — Speaking from the steps of the Recreation hall at the construction camp of No. 3 plant of the West Kootenay Power At Light company at the noon hour Saturday, Hon. S. F. Tolmie, Conservative leader, delivered a lS-mlnute address on provincial Issues at stake ln the election, to some 100 "construction" employees and staff, grouped around, reclining or standing, for the occasion. When the Conservative leader and his party arrived ln cars from Nelson, the stage was already set and the audience waiting, and, introduced by A. Defleux, Dr. Tolmie at once plunged In to make the most of the quarter hour available to him before the whistle should summon the audience to its multifold tasks. FIRST POLITICAL VISIT it was the first occasion, as Chairman Defleux pointed out, of South Slocan construction force being honored by a political visit, and on behalf of the audience he thanked Dr. Tolmie for giving his time and rearranging his itinerary In order to discuss issues with them. Dr. Tolmie, he said, was not worrying over the matter of being returned to take charge of the government—that was thoroughly assured now—out it was his wish * give them a little lineup of his constructive plans, before they cast their votes. Dr. Tolmie, declaring it was very good of hrs hearers to devote a portion of their noon-hour to hearing him set forth part of the Conservative view of the election issues, stated that ln a tour that covered the northern and eastern ridings, sometimes with several meetings a day, the people had shown unmistakably their intense interest in the election, and equally unmistakably, their desire for a change of government at Victoria. There was a feeling that, for instance, the debt had increased altogether too rapidly, the per capita debt had grown from 114 to 948.10 under Liberal rule, and the net debt her beloved, and then contracted with a sudden pain. For—chin cupped on his left hand, and splendid figure set in lines of utter weariness—he waa gazing, with his whole soul in his eyes, at the photo of a woman ln an evening frock. Even before she recognized the pictured fa**-, love's intuition told her that 1th* girl Was Lydia Harbrook) 1 ■ Tomorrow—Lydia Lays Plans. of the province from under 119,000,000 to over 185,000,000. MacLEAN HINTS PEOPLE TO BE IGNORED Premier MacLean, as an argument to keep himself ln office, said at Pentlcton that no one but himself could sell the P- G. E. to- the Dominion government—the inference being that In the 600,000 people -of the province, there was no other who could do It. This was a remarkable stand to take, based on his political friendliness to the King government ai Ottawa. "I want to know," aaked Dr. Tolmie, "if Ottawa ls going to ignore 000,000 people In favor of oaa, and that to obtain a deal with the Dominion government the province must indorse tbe Liberals. "I feel that the' Dorrttnion government is not going to take that attitude, and wlll not Ignore the people because they express their real desires and convictions at tht polls. X say that tn the light ot my experience at Ottawa." (Applause,) A HIOH PLANE While Premier MacLean boasted of the high plane of statesmanship on which he was going ^ to conduct his campaign, and said th* Conservatives were campaigning on a low plane, the premier was not very lofty when he cast a reflection on one of the Conservative candidates up north as being uneducated. How many of the pioneers had university educations, asked Dr. Tolmie. Many of the men who had laid the foundations of the province < and of this district ware not "educated men", to use Dr. MacLean's characterization, but they were sterling men nevertheless, and did a great and useful work, Similarly the premier spoke sneerlngly of critics of his iinancial policy lor the province, who had never handled tauoo of their own money at one time. It was fair to aak how long the premier himself could boast oi that distinction. To handle the money of others was nothing to blow about, but there was a deep obligation in such case to be honest In handling lt. Discussing the conservative policy for developing the province, the leader said one of hts first steps on attaining office would be to hord a survey, with the object of finding; out why, with a. larger territory than the three Pacific stales, and enorsioua resources, including agricultural. "British Columbia had only a tenth of their combined population; of finding out why British Columbia young people, on completing their schooling, left the country in search of livelihood; and why, among other things, this province, with 160,000,000 acres of land adapted for grazing,, went outside its borders for three-quarters of its meat supply, and the same in dairying, ine Conservatives believed lhat this province's agriculture was capable of great development, and proposed to make efiorts to correct thia uneven balance. 1 >K HAW MATERIALS AT HOME Another Conservative plank was to make every effort vto develop British Columbia industry generally, particularly Industries based on raw materials that the province had ln abundance, and that it now exported, Hiving the big profit to the foreigner buyer, who made them the basis of his own manu- tures. Trail, wtth Its payroll of $8,000,000 a year, wai an example of what resulted when raw material.} were made use of at home. Encouragement of mining in every way was another basic plank of the Conservative platform* Recognising what mining owed to the prospectors, he proposed to abollstj the fee for free miners' ce*ttfiwas«V •«*> a step toward encouraging 'i^jjapecting, and ulsn provide' free lectures as In Ontario! xnd Quebec, and free standard samples. Further, the Ontario system of mine taxation, under which no propertv was taxed until 1t hsd made * nroflt of $10,000. ths encouraglnar both small and larare Investment and particularly aiding the low grade properties, would be lnvesttaated. and if found applicable here, would be a Drilled. Maintenance, extension and Improvement of the road system, tn accordance with modern requirements, would be a concern of the Conservative government, to the extent that the provincial finances would permit. There would also be an end to the patron age svstem In road work, for lt was not fair for the man wanting a Job on the road to have to humiliate himself and dissemble his political convictions to some foreman In order to obtain work. (Applause). VOTE FOR PROGRESS At this point the whistle Intervened, and Dr. Tolmie thanked hla hearers for their courteous attention, and expressed the hope that they would "vote right", and place ln power a government that wlll do all In its power to bring about prosperity under which there will be work for everybody".

The marks ln both the 440 yard events for men and women, were toppled overboard when Oarnet Ault, of Ottawa, and Mlas Mary Casson, of Toronto, splashed through to new Canadian records. The third official mark was lowered by Miss Hilda Huestls of Toronto, ln the 100 yard back stroke for women. The performance of Oarnet Ault, carrying the colors of the St. Barnabas club, Ottawa, was one of the outstanding exhibitions of the afternoon. The blonde swimmer from the capital fallowed up his record-breaking feat ln' the mile event of thc preceding night by dipping 14 1-6 seconds from the 440 yard, free style, Canadian record. In establishing his second record ln two successive days, Ault competed against such outstanding stars as Munro Bourne, of Montreal; Murray Orlffln and Jim Thompson of Toronto; and Albert Ford, of Winnipeg. IN TWO HEATS The event was run in two heats, with the winner being declared from the best time. Ault won his htat wtth eass, never belftg headed and finished 30 yards ahead of Jim Thompson. Bourne won the other heat but his ttme was 16 l-S seconds slower than Ault's. The Ottawa swimmer's mark of five minutes 30 4-5 seconds for the event compares with the old record of 6:36 established in 1922 by George Vernon, Montreal in & 110 yard tank. The Sunnyside pool is 60 yards ln length. Miss Mary Casson of the Toronto Granite club, broke her own record of 6:46 In the 440 yard free style event for women when she swam the distance ln 6:3? 3-5.

Premier MacLean has supported the Hon. Mr. Harrow in every detail of His work on behalf of the agricultural industry. The government has been severely criticised by the opposition members for the expenditures it has made in the development of better methods of production and marketing. As the result of that work British Columbia's agricultural products are known the world over for their superior qualities and an ever-increasing demand for them is witness to the efficiency of the depart* incut's market extension activity. Irrigation and reclamation schemes have been undertaken and brought to a highly successful conclusion by the government. The Conservatives are berating the government for spending money on these projects and charge the government with profligacy. Apparently the Conservative mind cannot conceive that a government must look for return on invested capital in the in- capital every expenditure directly against those people who use the works for which the capital was expended. They—the Conservatives—use the arguments about the monies expended for roads. Every mile of road, according to their arguments generally, should be charged against the properties it runs through. If we are to take the Conservatives literally they do not propose to undertake any public works which they cann6t collect from those who use them; they will not build roads or bridges unless the farmer pays the cost directly. If good roads are not good business for the whole province then we would like to know what is and if the Conservatives expect to appeal to the farmer on a no road without direct taxation policy we are afraid they will be conspicuous by their absence when the roll is called next session at Victoria. All things considered, Country Life does not feel that the Conservatives have any items on their program with which it can sympathise except their keen desire to obtain office. They have heen "out" a long time and we are afraid that their present platform will keep them otit for another session at least. t*,:,1 The farmer knows his Jonathans and he will hesitate a long time before he decides to exchange the positive performances of MacLean and Harrow for the negative promises of Tolmie and lord knows who.

EngflM, July 8—In a victory that developed dramatic possibilities unlocked for when Helen Wills Is riding the courts, the queen of American tennis Saturday conquered Senorita Ella de Alvarez of Spain ln the women's singles final of the Wimbledon championships to gain the crown for the second straight year. The American youngster, not as accurate as usual and somewhat off form generally, beat the Spanish girl, 6-2. 6-3, but not until Senorita Alvarez had led 3-0 In the final session. Cracking then under the strain of the battle and possibly the illness that kept her from the courts for several days, Senorita Alvarez folded up under Helen's powerful drives. Regaining her speed and stroking control, Miss Wills ran out the next six games in fine style to clinch the match and .the unofficial title of world champion for the second time ln succession. There was no apparent trace of weakened stamina as Senorita Alvarez hopped, skipped and danced about the center court before a gallery of 16,000 enthusiasts that included King George and Queen Mary, while hundreds of ordinary fans stood ln line 12 hours outside the arena seeking admission. If Alveraz was ill today we'd like to see her play when Bhe is well," was the consensus of cynical tennis experts who watched the graceful girl execute her daring backhand half volleys ln perfect form.

"Scotty" Notman tripped across the plate with the run that gave Nelson senior ball towers a 7-6 victory over the Ymlr nine In a closely contested exhibition game et the Recreation grounds here yesterday afternoon. Nelson went to bat ln the final Inning on the short end Of a 6-S score., Three of four batters up got hits and two scored. Hunt got up and struck out. Olllett went to bat and knocked a high foul back of the home plate. "Curly" Euers got under lt but was forced to bring the ball against his protector to hold lt. Umpire Bill Freno declared Olllett not out and Olllent went to bat again and slammed out a three-bagger to left field. Notman got up and knocked out a single scoring Olllett to tie the score. Notman got to second on an error and stole third. Shoemaker knocked down a single scoring Notman and putting an end to the game. Preno's decision on Olllett's foul caused considerable argument in which Ymlr players as well as supporters took part. The players went on with the game, however, with little loss of time.

INTERESTING GAME The Incident was the only one to spoil what waa otherwise an Interesting and closely contested game. The Ymir team played the beet bail on the field, making a minimum of errors. The Nelson team was occasionally sloppy on the field but mad* up for lt in batting. They missed three chances of double plays by errors. Kraft chucked a good game for Nelson and with better support should have held the Ymlr boyn down. He allowed only six scattered hits and gave out two passes to first base. He struck out three batters. Clark waa going good on the mound for Ymlr. He retired in favor of Walman at the beginning of the eighth Inning, after holding Nelson three Innings. Clark allowed nine scattered hits and gave four bases on balls. He struck out six batters. Walman allowed three hits, and struck out two. Olllett and Notman Mich connected for a three-base hit, Notman off Clark and Giliett off Walman. Kelly. McKinnon and Richardson connected for two-base hits. FAST INNING Nelson was retired without scoring in four of the nine innings and the Ymlr boys went five Innings scoreless. In the fifth Inning Clark pitched over three strikes and three men were out. Shoemaker got up and drove out a grounder to McKinnon on the first ball pitched. He waa thrown out at first. Richardson slammed the first ball over, a grounder to Kelly and was thrown out at flrat. Wallace did the aame. When Ymlr went to bat they were retired as quickly. Foes filed out to Shoemaker who had to run from center field to well over toward left, making a sensational catch. Clark grounded to Kraft and was thrown out at first. Euers did the aame. GOOD CATCH Johnny Wallace, Nelson's second baseman, made a sensational catch of what looked like a sure hit. Clark drove out a Texas leaguer ln the fourth inning, well over Wallace's head and too short for center fielder. Wallace raced after the fly and caught It while on the go in tbe same direction it wu go.»g. It was a pretty catch and well deserved the loud applause. The score by Innings was: Ymlr 10 2 2 0 0 0 1 0—8 Nelson 0 12 10 0 10 2—7 The teams were: Ymlr -Clark, p; Euers, c; Waiman, lb; Kelly, 2b; McKinnon, 3b; McLaughlin, aa; Daly, li; Foes, cf; Smith, rf.

Public recognition of this principle, in four years advanced Chrysler from 17th to jrd place in sales in the N. A. C. C. With a new product-the Plymouth - Chrysler is the first to give, at so low a price, the advantages of performance, riding ease, dependability and full adult size which characterize fine cars of higher price. The new Chrysler-designed and Chrysler- built Plymouth is so revolutionary an advance over other low-priced cars, it is such conclusive evidence that the past year's strides in the science of manufacturing have multiplied the purchasing power of the motor car dollar, that you will surely want to see it and drive it And above all, you must see its beautiful lines and finish, and stretch at ease in its deep-upholstered, full adult-size bodies, to comprehend how completely the Plymouth surpasses cars heretofore sold under $1500. The Plymouth is today displayed by every Chrysler dealer. He wants you to see it and to ride in it. Please submit the Plymouth to this trial We believe you will discover there has never been a car anywhere near its price that can approach the Plymouth for power, pick-up, smoothness, easy handling, safety,quietness and roominess — nor that can equal it in beauty and style. »n Dominion Garage & Sales Company TRAIL, B.C.

Goes East Face Charge Robbing Bank at Ottawa JOE WRIGHT IS WINNER OF THE SCULLS TITLE Beats Lee of Oxford By Length in Eight Minutes, 24 Seconds at Henley HENLEY, Eng., July 8— Joe Wright Jr., Toronto, won the diamond sculls Saturday defeating R. T. Lee, Oxford, by a length, ln 8 minutes 34 seconds. It was a reversal ot the 1937 distance in the premier singles event when the 31-year-old Canadian lost ln the finals when his oar became entangled in a punt rope near the finish line. Both Wright and Lee received a tremendous ovation as they sculled to the starting post and the raoe Justified the early cheers. Joe Wright, challenger, was presented to Prince Oeorge and members of the Henley committee. It was the second Canadian victory in the event. Captain Lou Luscles, Toronto, won In 1904. Wright's time today was 14 seconds slower than the record held by P. B. Kelley of the Leander Rowlng__club, London. TRAIL GREETS LEADER TOLMIE WITH OVATION (Continued from Page One) intention of the government to trans fer the lands back, he withdrew the motion. A Judge was appointed to Inquire into the matter, and reported .that while the province had no legal claim to the lands, lt undoubtedly had a moral claim, and he recommended their return. This recommendation the gov ernment said lt would honor. Only for the last couple of years had the Liberals at Victoria busied themselves ln this matter, Dr. Tolmie pointed out. amid applause. TAX REDUCTION HOPES Lavish promises were made by Dr. MacLean, of future reduction in taxes. He said he would save the ft3.000.000 deficit that the P.O.E. now made annually, by selling the P.O.E—which Mr. Dunning said hadn't been sold; and he would have the revenue from the returned lands—which examination of the accounts revealed cost thus far more to administer than was taken ln. This Indicated the flimsy nature of these tax reduction proposals. Dr. Tolmie said if he was "inexperienced." as Dr. MacLean claimed, at least he had administered a large Dominion department, whose interests had taken him at times to distant fields, and had obtained a few good marks. While, as Dr. MacLean said, he did not enjoy the confidence of the Liberals—and had not expected lt. haying devoted himself to the Interests of'the country as Been by the Conservatives— that did not prevent him from extending a hearty welcome to all Liberals ready to cooperate with the Conservatives ln the securing of good government. HIS LEADERSHIP The Conservative leader said he had strictly kept his bargain with the Conservative party, made at Kamloops. which was that he should return to the province as soon as the date of election was announced. He had put aside his own plans ln order to accept the lead ershlp. for a situation had developed at the convention tnat made lt desirable for some one to come forward. Having accepted, he would throw himself Into the fight with every ounce of his 125' pounds. (Applause and laughter), As for being an absentee Consfvvatlve lead-J er. would rather rest under that Imputa- j tlon than he responsible in any re-; spect for the absentee vote. (Applause). When the premier spoke In a derogatory manner of a certain Conservative candidate as "uneducated." he was hardly on the high plane he had said he would follow. Also, In saying he did not care for financial criticisms from men who never handled more than •3000 of their own money at one time, he was not very gracious. What about Sir John A. Macdonald and Sir Wilfrid Laurier. greatest of Canadians, who were poor men? It would have more become him to remember that "a man's a man for a' thatl" (Applause). The sight of a man puffed up by a Uttle temporary authority—for ln Dr. MacLean's case lt was assuredly only temporary—always reminded Dr. Tolmie of the colored gentleman who was confronted for the first time by the sight of a zebra at the zoo. Answering the demand of his wife as to what It was. he replied with assurance: "Mlrandy. that am a sports model Jackass!" (Roars of laughter). SHOIXD BE IN TOl'CH WITH RESOURCES "In my opinion," said the Conserva^ tlve leader, "a government should be ln close touch with the natural resources of ths territory lt administers, and should seek their full development. I do not meen that there should be cuddling, or pap-feeding. But It should be possible for a government to greatly assist development without stooping to that." Though Just as rich in area and re sources as the three Pacific Btates. or as large as France, Italy and Switzerland combined, this province had only 600,000 people. But before more people were asked to come in, something must be provided for them to do. and before that, something for those already here. The emigration must first be stopped, and then the problem of taking care of immigration could be taken up. Millions were now being spent to bring In Immigrants and at the end of the year the efflux was greater than the influx. A OREAT LEAK Dr. Tolmie spoke of the great leak In buying abroad annually $5,750,000 worth of agricultural products, whtle the province had vast unoccupied spaces suitable for agriculture, amounting, in the case of the rive stock branches, to 160,000.000 acres of good range, on which a vast industry could be built. Then there were mining resources that had already yielded $900,000,000. with the surface as yet only scratched. Over half the commercial timber of Canada was ln this province. He said he was a great believer In the principle of helping the man who was in the early stages of an enterprise, and In letting him get on his feet before he was taxed. In this connection, he explained his proposal for adoption. If feasible, of the Ontario plan of only taxing mines after they had become profit-producing, and his policy to encourage prospecting by remission of free miner's licence fees, mining lectures and free samples. Also he believed in encouraging Industry, and In getting every possible dollar out of the province's raw materials, by converting them on British Columbia soil Into manufactured products. TRAU. 1LLV STHATES PRINCIPLE "Trail." said Dr. Tolmie, "ls a convincing illustration of the value of the policy of working up our raw materials at home. Before Heinze came, and built the original Trail smelter. Trail was Just at bend on the Columbia, at the foot of Rossiand. Then came the Canadian Smelting company, foreshadow lng the Consolidated Mining & Smelting Company of Canada, with Its great development of plants to serve Its mines and others. "Today Trail Is a nice, clean, thriving city, supported on the industry repre' VANCOUVER, B.C.. July 8—William Loucks. arrested here, who ls charged along with Gilbert W Bennett, cashier with the theft of $37,000 from the Ottawa branch of the Standard Bank of Canada, has left for Ottawa to stand trial. Police are investigating reports of the finding of two dead men beside railway tracks ln Alberta wtth the view of ascertaining whether either of them Is the missing Bennett, whose trail was loat at Medicine Hat, Alberta, According to unconfirmed reports here, one man, on' whose person wa* ' found $9000. was discovered on the track between Calgary and Edmonton, while a second man, whose Identity is not known, was picked on the right-of- way between Medicine Hat and Calgary.

In the course of the next few weeks, thousands of people will forsake the cities to seek rest and recreation by lake and stream and in the depths of the cool, green Forests. REMEMBER! This is the month of July when the Fire Hazard is at its height. Be rigidly careful with Fire. Get your camp fire permit; have it always with you and follow its simDle instructions. The consciousness of doing your part to Protect the Forests will add materially to your enjoyment of them. B. C.

Further, the people of Trail afford a great coh- m.ming market, both for agricultural products and for all general lines of consumption. I "This W.aoo.OOC payroll, of which you are Justly proad, would be south of the line today lf we had ehlpped the ores of this territory south Instead of treating them on the British Columbia side of the, line. "Let me express my compliments to those men who discovered these processes on Which the prosperity of TraU and of tbe Kootenay ls very largely founded," added Dr. Tolmie; "—to the American who first discovered the principle of oil flotation, and to the able "lab" here evolved the commercial Investigators who tn the Consolidated process for the extraction of zinc from Kootenay ores, a process that had made the great mine at Klmberley worth untold millions." (Applause) RESEARCH TO All) IN.H'.HTRY This research reminded Dr. Tolmie of the development of Marquis wheat by the Dominion experimental farms during hts tenure of office as minister of agriculture, the production of this new variety, 10 days earlier than any other Fife, and wtth stronger straw, being worth hundreds of millions to the country, and many times the money that has been spent on the experimental farms from the time of their inception. "We wlll assist research in every way, to build up new Industries for the province," he said. Another way to open up the province was by providing roads and trails, for tourists, but first for "our own people" With autoes, one could have, better roads, with fewer high spots and kinks. Work on the roads should firat go to nearby residents. Dr. Tolmie expressed hismelf as Inflexibly against compelling any man to He to a foreman as to his politics ln order to get a Job, The poor man was entitled to a square deal. The rich fellow was able to take; care of himself. The rumor that he was going to fire all Liberals in the civil service was all humbug. He was an old civil servant himself, he knew the honest and faithful work done by the great body of civil servants, and when ln effice at Ottawa had never fired one for partisanship, but only asked respecting him. if he was giving service. That would be the condition at Victoria after his assumption of office. SOCIAL RECORD On social legislation, the Conservative party's record, in connection with the Factory act. Workmen's compensation, and nearly a score other measures, was such that those interested in this class of legislation could be assured of continued efforts to promote the welfare of the workmen of the women and children, and of the helpless and the aged. In old age pensions, which the Conservatives helped to bring in, they had a fundamental interest, and would always be prepared to receive representations leading to the improvement of this and other social measures. To make education received in the schools more applicable to conditions, and to turn out more young people equipped to supply efficient service in the Industries of the province, was one of his alms. A greater pride ln province, country and Empire should also be Inculcated, the foundation of lt being thorough knowledge of the province's and country's potentialities. (Applause). take police from politics Dr. Tolmie declared lf he was entrusted with the administration of the province, he would try to maintain the dignity and sanctity of the courts of the land, and would remove the provincial pollce as far from politics as possible. Hc expressed the belief that that splendid force would gain ln efficiency if cut loose entirely from political control.

There was little to show for the 1260,000.000 the government had spent in its 12 years. All through the departments, the costs were far above those of the other provinces, from the civil government down. This was in spite of the Liberal pledges cf economy and reduction of expenditure, mode at every successive election. The speaker paid a great tribute to Dr. Tolmie, and predicted that under his Bound administration the province would enjoy an eta of great development and prosperity.

He was elected a school trustee for three years, served as alderman one year, and then mayor five years, the last four times by acclamation. Elected to the legislature in 1907, he had been reelected ever since, though every time having a contest. He was again facing a contest, though in many respects lt was almost an acclamation, and "we feel In our hearts he will go. buck with thc largest majorley he has ever had". (Great applause).

July 8— The British Columbia provincial elections are but 10 days away. The major political parlies are keenly engaged all over the province seeking the support of the electorate on July 18 Premier J. D. MacLean was in Vancouver ibis weekend following an extensive tour of the interior constituencies, while the conservative leader, Hon- Dr. 3. F. Tolmie ls still inland, but will come to the coast this week. Both leaders are taking the campaign personally Into practically every riding. The Liberal party la asking for re-, turn to power largely on their financial record, thetr plans for disposal of the Pncific Great Eaatern and their record on labor legislation. Premier MacLean has expressed every confidence that an arrangement wlll be made with the Canadian National railways concerning the Pacific Oreat Eastern. long a bone of cententlon ln the province's politics. Falling that, the government ls pledged to complete the line to Prince Qeorge and North Vancouver. The premier points to the price commanded by British Columbia bonds as evidence of the soundness ol the financial policy cf the Liberal government. He points to the old age pensions act and other statues as evidence of the government's advance ln social legislation. The Liberal party claims credit for giving women a place on their ticket In the persons of Mrs. Paul Smith in Vancouver City and Mrs. Mary Ellen Smith in Esquimau. TOI,MIES STAND Dr. Tolmie and the Conservative party have attacked the financial record of the government alleging that the public debt ls excesaive. Thc? warn that the Liberal party have previously made promises concerning the Pacific Oreat Eastern which were unfulfilled. They claim credit for much of the social legislation as Conservative policies. The Conservatives promise a survey of the Pacific Oreat Eastern problem with a view to a satisfactory disposal of the question and also Agricultural and Industrial surveys of the province in order to determine what steps ahould be taken lo advance their prosperity. Hon. H H. Stevens, MP, Leon J. Ladner and VV. Q. McQuarrie, M.P., are federal membera who are aiding tho Conservative cause.

In *~ early etenlng of Dominion Day the t_ Liberals had a capacltv crowd at the opera house, with C. S. Leary, candidate on the platform and Hon. J. W. DeB Funis speaking on his behalf.

Capt Fiteslm- mons had a grand reception. <'ll\Ki-i|-» EXTRAVAGANCE He attacked the Liberal government for its extravagance In the public works department and compared the mileage of roads with the cost to the work performed by the Conservatives prior to 1916.

He explained that ln presenting himself to the electorate* he had no apologies to make of his 3* years of close connections with the people resident along the shores of Trout Lake. Kootenay Lake. Slocan Lake and the Arrow Lakes. He was convinced the Conservatives would be returned to power at Victoria by an overwhelming majority on July 18, under the most able leadership of Hon. Dr. 8. F. Tolmie, whose ability was such that even the Liberal Dominion premier offered him the portfolio of agriculture.. Colonel Spencer was confident that the six Conservatives would be elected In Vancouver at the coming contest. It was significant that not a single member of the last slate offered hmself for re-election, indicating that they were either disgusted with their leaders or had gone to seek election in other ridings. One had gone north, another south, while Mrs. M. E. Smith had proceeded further west to try her luck. They had not been moved about at the request of the electorate but at the request of the cabinet, and bribed with portfolios. It was an insult to the people to have the uninvited forced upon them. Another Valuable member of the late government had quit the party ln disgust, he said, referring to Mr. Woodward of Vancouver. HUG*. DEBT He compared the 118,000,000 public debt lef£ by the Conservatives In 1916 to the $86,000,000 now saddled on the people, who numbered less than a third of a million, showing how reckless the Liberals have been during their tenure of office. Captain Fitzsimmons and Colonel Spencer held a fine meeting at Arrow Park on Thursday afternoon, which was splendidly attended, and at Burton In the evening, when the hall waa crowded. This was followed by a dance. - AURORA BOREALIS DOMKOVER CITY Wonderful Display Seems Like Hawing Tent; Storm Climaxes Week-end Automobile Club Will Take Up the Matter of Licences TO'GLENN LAID AT FINAL REST IN NELSONCEMETERY Display of aurora borealU with all the lighter tints of tbe rainbow were vlstbl* over Nelson late Saturday night.

Pioneer Engineer's Funeral Under Auspices Odd Fellows; Many Attend | j J An Electric Range | Means Hot Weather Comfort You know how the ordinary kitchen feels on a hot summer day. The heat outside is bad enough, but when this is increased by the host exuded from a range, the housewife's burden becomes almost unbearable. With an electric range your kitchen is kept cool and crnfortabre, because the heat is just where you need it, under a cooking Utensil or in the oven. It does not flood the whole kitchen. Electricity is economical, too. And bo delightfully clean.
