OTH PARTIES CARRY ON TO LAST TRENCH jrenuous Political Campaign In B. C. Is Nearing; a Close Declaring tbit he wan officially pouted aa a deserter from the Canadian army when ln reality he was a prisoner of war breaking stones in a German camp 'and that the consequent stoppage of pay and allowances deprived him of 94000 rightfully his, Sergeant*- John W. Cooke, residing at 4305 Oeorge street, South Vancouver, |has secured pf»r- mlssion to have his claim heard by the exchequer court at Ottawa early in September. HOLDS EinilT DECORATIONS Sergeant Cooke, J. W. COOKE who served 16 years with the Imperial forces in many parts of the world and holds eight decorations Including the Distinguished Service medal, enlisted with the 47th battalion of New Westminster on April 8, 1915. On December IS of the same year, he went to England and was sent to France during May, 1917. In October of the same year, he was invalided back to England. After leaving Bromley Convalescent camp on sick leave he was recalled by telegram after two days and ordered to Join the British Columbia Reserve unit at Seaford. On November 26 he was sent to Prance, but on arrival at La Havre. Cooke states, lt developed that while there were 25 men ln the party, there were military papers for only 24. As "a consequence, he was detained for three days awaiting papers. Eventually his statement of claim details, he was sent to join an Ontario regiment then before Passchen- dale. The morning after his arrival this unit went over the top and Cooke found himself a Oerman prisoner. BOCAPU TO HOLLAND After more than two years of work in a Oerman quarry, Cooke with a member of the Imperial forces, taken prisoner at about the same time, escaped to Holland. Prom that time on, states Cooke, his mind became a blank until two months later he found himself in the Military nursing home, Little Orchard Kent, England. HONORABLY DISCHARUED In October, 1920, he was returned to Canada and was granted honorable discharge. But his pay and allowances had long before that been stopped when he had been posted as a deserter. This Included the allowances for his wife and three children. Hence the suit for'the sums held back which amount to about S4000. Cooke in the action will be represented by C. S. Arnold, local barrister. The 'Ogopogo' Sports Itself On Okanagan Lake; Patrol of Girl Guides Watch the Large Monster VERNON, B.C., July 16. — The "ogopogo," as the mysterious monster which inhabits Okanagan lake has come to be known, is again in evidence. During the summer of 1926 it made frequent appearances, always while the weather was hot. Last year, a cool summer, it was seen but seldom. On Friday, July 13, about 6 p.m., the Robbin patrol of girl guides and Miss L. Price, nurse of the 22nd I.O.D.E. girl guWes, had a good view of the monster, which was disporting itself in Otter bay. The lake was very calm at the time and Miss Price, who was sitting on the beach, observed a motion in the water to the north of the camp. In a few minutes a long creature swam swiftly from the rocky point across the bay in a southerly direction. According to Miss Price and the five members of the Robbin patrol, it was between 30 and 40 feet in length and swam with an undulating motion. The shouts of the girls brought all the guides to the shore, but by the time they arrived only the ripples could be seen on the surface of the water. The creature made quite a noise as it rushed through the calm waters of the bay.

The'$300,000 ferry, one of the largest vessels on Puget sound, was pulled off at high tide. The vessel, carrying 144 passengers and 30 automobiles, was bound from Victoria to Edmonds, Wash. The passengers were put ashore and 76 were taken to Edmonds. The others re matned and went aboard again when the tide went out. The ferry continued its trip to Ed monds after being floated. Nobile Prisoner of Italia Until Tells Clear Account Crash Liberals are absolutely conducting a provincial campaign, without the assistance of federal house members, declared D. D. McLean, candidate for Nelson, last night when addressing large and enthusiastic meetings at the social held in the Church of the Redeemer hall, and the smoker ln the Liberal committee rooms. "A telegram received from Premier MacLean tonight was to the effect that Vancouver and Victoria never looked better and all Indications throughout the province indicate a sweeping victory,". sajtd Mr. McLean, "and we are getting support from labor and women." Among the numerous benefits given to labor in British Columbia during the 13 years the Liberals have been In power, asserted the speaker, waa the minimum wage act in 1925. This has already affected over 40,000 people. White persons have taken the place of foreign laborers ln a large number of mills on the boast since the act was passed. During the past 12 years, he continued, the agricultural industry In the province has Increased 02 per cent. Lumbering has increased 42 per cent, mining 60 per cent and fishing 95 per cent. Also, the Industrial payroll has Increased from less than •100,000,000 to $176,000,000, and a good payroll ls what British Columbia needed. "The opposition Is finding fault with the present government," pointed out Mr. McLean, "but they are unable to tell Just what the fault is." The Workmen's Compensation act has been a wonderful help to the working people ot B. C since It was passed in 1917, declared the speaker, and was now the means of paying out $200000 a month to taxpayers throughout the province. The Old Age Pensions act was now assisting over 2000 people iu the province, continued Mr. McLean, but it was not absolutely satisfactory yet. But even an act is not loo per cent strong the first time it le passed. "The whole of Canada wlll be watching British Columbia on July 18," concluded Mr. McLean. "I am not so particular about Dan McLean, but do put the Liberals back Into power." (Applause). Voters Absent From Their Own Hidings Can Vote as Absentees VANCOUVER, B.C.. July 18.— The British Columbia provincial election machinery makes provision for the polling oi ihe votes of those who may be absent from their constituencies on election day. This Is known as "the absentee vote" and it wlll be used In Wednesday's general elections under conditions somewhat changed from those obtaining ln 1934. Voters may get from the presiding officer of any "foreign" poll an absentee voter's affidavit form, which, when completed, entitles the voter to vote for the candidate or candidates in his or her own constituency. Such votes will be deposited In special boxes. Last election they were sent to the home constituency and counted there, resulting ln delay In theae returns becoming known. This year they will be counted where cast and the results telegraphed to the constituencies concerned. The actual ballou wlll be mailed to their proper destinations. As many people are at present on holidays the absentee vote may be relatively heavy and have an important bearing on the results in tome constituencies, VANCOUVER, July 16—Heaven help the workingman lf they entrust their welfare to the tender mercies of Tory administration, warned Hon. Ian MacKenzie. provincial secretary, at the closing rally of Vancouver Liberal candidate* Monday night. Expressing violent indignation at a Conservative advertisement the minister pointed to the earnest support accorded labor legislation In the provincial house during the last eight years. His message Cb labor ln Vancouver the speaker said, ls to forget about the capitalist advertisement, forget the sensational entrance Into this campaign and subsequent suppression of Hon. H. H. Stevens. Eastern interest, it ls very apparent, had been trampling on his Ull in the east causing him to bark in British Columbia. The workers should keep Vancouver democratic by supporting the working man's friend, John Duncan MacLean. MEANH GOODBYE Summing up the debate of the last fortnight. Hon. Dugald Donaghy, minister of finance, declared first that the defeat of Premier MacLean means goodbye to all hopes of womankind to represent their sex on the floor of the legislature. The action of the Conservative party has shut the door of the house in the face of the women who would enter there as membera of the provincial parliament. Referring to the Conservative manifesto, Mr. Donaghy said In every case where Hon. 8. p. Tolmie hsd departed from the Liberal platform, he had proposed to wreck certain Institutions of British Columbia. He cited proposed changes in mining laws and an attempt to wreck the financial reputation of British Columbia by misrepresenting the provincial debt.

B.C., July 16—Joseph North Independent, opened and cloeed his campaign for election to the legislature yesterday afternoon ln Beacon Hill park, where he addressed over 1000 people at the conclusion of the) Sunday afternoon band concert, speaking from the band stand. Mr. North's address was punctuated with rounds of applause and laughter and concluded with the adjuration: "Don't vote the 'straight four ticket'; vote for the 'straight' man." "My subject la 'we nutheads' Including myself," said Mr. North. "tbe government ts run on a business basis But I say three honest men could run the province Including liquor, and the profits on the liquor sales could sin- ploy all our boys and girls and keep them from going to the United States. "Now about this government control, I think we are all controlled too much. We stand around while they pass out rotten whiskey and rotten beer, to make big profits supposed to be to keep hospitals and municipalities ln funds. I believe our hospitals are too big and clean to be kept by this rotten booze money, I remember 'ths food control of war time'. I used to be on the steamers. I know we had food control and controllers. I knew them as soon aa I saw the controllers come down the gang planks. Every one of them weighed more than 350 pounds," he declared, while the crowd roared with delight. "If you put me there in the legislature, I will be a good watch dog for you. So I ask you. In your own Interests, don't vote the straight four ticket, vote for the straight man. "I'm much obliged to you for listening to me." Irish Free State Accepts Anti-War Treaty From U. S. TRAIL, B.C., July 16.—John Peharron of Trail and Andrew Petrie of Rossiand are dead, and Hunter Woodburn, foreman, and Dominic J. Giampietre are in Trail-Tadanac hospital suffering from burns, iw _** result of an explosion of copper matte in a reverberatory furnace at the Consolidated copper smelter here this morning at 6:45 o'clock. The force of the explosion was sufficient to uproot the six-inch concrete flooring and throw portions of it 60 feet high through the roof and to leave a twisted pile of debris of the heaviest material. It caused two outbreaks of fire, which were, however, extinguished before any considerable damage was done. JURY MEETS At 1:30 o'clock this afternoon a jury consisting of George Kinnis, foreman, Keith Price, E. Hodge, Dr. R. Williamson, H. E. Smith and M. Butorac viewed the bodies of the men killed and made a preliminary survey of the scene of the disaster and went into session at an inquest conducted by Dr. J. B. Thom, coroner, at the company's general offices. They adjourned their deliberations until Thursday. DEATH ACCIDENTAL Statements of the company officials accompanying the ..jury on their investigation tended to show the death of the two men and the injuries sus-f tained by others were purely accidental. Peharron and Petrie, it was said, were following their normal occupation as furnace men, working together. It was their work to tend a furnace charged with about 60 tons of molten metal, on which normally floated a scum of earthy material, slag. They drew off molten metal as it was needed and also drew off the slag or waste from time to time, each shift allowing the slag to drop Into water In a cement channel to pulverize the slag and permit It to be washed away to dumps. It was known that having drawn off quantity of slag and seeing the molten metal commence to pour through the same hole, the men attempted to plug the hole with clay, as they normally would do. But for some reason not yet explained they were unable to stop the molten metal with a plug and tt flUed a huge pot receptacle there for such emergency use and overflowed into the water channel with the result that It caused a terrific explosion. ATTEMPT AVERT ACCIDENT It was surmised that knowing the danger, the men had attempted to pull a plug and release some of the molten metal with safety into another receptacle and thus lower the metal level and stop the flow from the dangerous slag vent, and also that one of them attempted to shut off the water flow from an adjacent valve. It ls believed also that the Injured men, Mr. Woodburn and Mr. Olampietre, were attempting to assist by taking precautionary measures at another section of the furnace. The Investigation Is proceeding. Jl'RY ADJOURNS After deliberating for over 30 minutes, foreman Qeorge Kinnis announced that the Jury was unable to give the verdict until after it had heard evidence from the two Injured men, Mr. Woodburn and Mr. Qiampietre, patients ln the hospital. The Inquest was adjourned to 7 o'clock Thursday evening at which time evidence will be given by the two men at the hospital. During the afternoon seven witnesses gave evidence. Ml'RRAY TESTIFIES Oeorge Murray, assistant superintendent of the C. M. dc 8. company, testified that he hsd seen Mr. Wood- burn, foreman of the shift, at the hoapltal. According to Mr. Murray ln approaching the furnace, Mr. Wood- burn saw that his men were having difficulty and had halted to Instruct them to turn off the water so as to diminish the explosion. He had started to burn the lower hole ln the receptacle so as to allow the molten metal to flow into the safety pot and release the pressure when the accident occurred Mr. Murray stated that the hole could be burned from 30 seconds to two minutes, and had the men started to burn the hole sooner the accident would never have happened. He eaid that Mr. Peharrson was not a regular furnace man, but he had relieved off and on for six months. He had, how ever, worked as furnaceman steady for the last seven days. He was one of three shift men capable of doing that work stated Mr. Murray. COMPARES FURNACES He compared the safety of the fur as the common practice elsewhere. Both the engineer at Anaconda and an American engineer were satisfied with the safety device of the TraU plant. stated Mr. Murray. Thomaa Brown, foreman, stated the two men had hod enough experience In that work and that the helper had attempted to turn off the water. He also estimated the time it would take to pull the safety plug, and declared that the furnace man always stayed with his Job until the overflow was stopped. WAITED TOO LONO In doing away with the safety pot, Mr. Brown stated, there would bo more tendency for danger and although he favored the safety pot he said that ln his belief the men had waited too long to pull the plug. He had talked with the engineer from Anaconda, whd figured that the furnace with the safety device was much safer than tha blast furnace. Mike Campenellt. furnaceman, testified that he had pulled the plug on Friday night to let the water down and declared that It was easy to stop the matter with that safety device. He had worked aa furnaceman for eight years and although he had quit the Job at Granby because there waa danger, he stated he felt safe with tha safety plug of the lurnace here. DEVICE SAFE When asked if he thought the men had tried to throw th I work of empting the pot unto thc next shift, he said that It could not be done aa the furnaceman could not, leave hla Job until the relief man had arrived. He declared he saw no necessity to have three or four men ou that Job as two were enough. He said the pot was always emptied when furnacemen went on or off shift or whenever It was full. He felt that the device was safe because is gave a man a chance to turn off the water. W. W. McKay, furnaceman, testified that he was going on shift when the explosion occurred and that lt was his belief that the men attending ths furnace did not pull the plug aoon enough. He declared he had tapped five pots at 4:35 o'clock Saturday night having pulled the bar and burning tha hole with gas. He stated that tha hole could be burned very quickly and the pressure released. Walter Newton, employee, declared that he had helped to pick up Peharr- son's body from under two lrone which lay across his head. He suited tho {Continued on page three) WAflHINOTON, July 111.—The Irian.

Thts bridge was to have cost 9100,000.

He also secured generous grants for schools as well as provin cfel assistance toward the construction of the present fair building ln Trail. "As for the Pacific Great Eastern, said Mr. Esling. "it is only necessary to read the 1917 railway report, where over the signature of the late John Oliver, as minister of railways, Is the statement that the contractors had agreed to complete the P. G. E. to Prince George by 1919 for a loan of $6,000,000. This sum was provided for In the Conservative Loan bill of 1916. As collateral for this loan, the government was to hold a first mortgage on the raUway. on the equipment of the contractors, and on all their townsltes, and Foley. Welsh S_ Stewart were to personally indemnify the province against loss on the bonds. The present government decided to complete the road, with the result that the taxpayers of British Columbia have been saddled with a debt of over »50,000,000. The road bed is overgrown with brush and It will cost several millions, to finish It. Since Mr. Foley's estate was valued at 42 millions, P. Welsh Is a retired capitalist, and General John Stewart enjoys u high financial rating, the province would have been millions ahead had this government accepted the proposal of the contractors. Referring to the cancellation St the Mothers' Pension, In the case of Mrs. Edward Rowland, Mr. Esling said the consensus of opinion among residents >f the Slocan valley was, that political prejudice was responsible and fair minded Liberals deprecated the action. The reason given for cancellation wa.s that Mrs. Rowland was possessed of two pieces of property, although no reference as lo value was made. Mr. Esling said he visited the Rowlands, and found such a pitiably distressing ltuation that residents of the valley appealed to the government agent at Nelson for relief. "Not in British Columbia," he continued, "could one find a case more necessary for the act to be administered tn accordance with its intent, and instead of cancelling, the pension should have been Increased.

Certainly she does not own the pre-emption and I doubt lf anybody would accept the two places a* a gift If they were compelled to live on them. TME PETEB8 CASE "But if this were not political prejudice," aaid Mr. Esling, "the caae of David Peters of Appledale. waa. Mr. Peters Joined the Highlander. In 1838. He served 10 years In Africa and India and was Invalided home. Coming to Canada in 1906. he went to work on the road and when war came, he went over wtth the 64th. While taking a German trench, his arm was shattered and after six months ln the hospital was invalided home to Canada. He resumed his position as road foreman. To repeated requests from local Liberals the district engineer and road superintendent refused to fire him, but word came direct from the department at Victoria, replacing him by the secretary ef the local Liberal association, who had never seen a day of military service." Mr. Esling said such political practice would not be countenanced by Dr. Tolrhie, and no public servant would be removed so long as he was efficient and honest. Touching on taxation. Mr. Ealing charged that the present revenue of twenty millions as compared with the revenue of seven millions In 19I«, was attributed to new taxes and Increased taxes and that the people were now saddled with. every tax which financial Ingenuity could suggest. "Compare your tax receipt of today with that of ten years ago," continued Mr. Esling, "and you will see that you are paying double and you will remember that the Conservatives allowed you a ten per cent discount If SOU paid by June 30th. Now you phj in full ond are penalized lf you miss payment. The government seeks to excuse the huge debt by saving that It made generous contributions to mad., hospitals and municipalities. The road work Is enred for by the doubling of the automobile tax and the gasoline tax is ulsp applied to that. For hospitals and municipalities, the contributions came largely by way of profit on bad liquor at high prices, and from beer at $22 for a 22 gallon barrel in British Columbia as against $11.50 for u 26 gallon barrel In Quebec ROADS AM) COSTS The real reason for the heavy taxation conclued the speaker, Is the Incompetence and extravagance in all directions and • you have no more forcible Illustration than thc building of Anarchist, Mountain road for $160- 000 as against the estimated cost of $40,000. The Oolden road was estimated to cost $193,000 and It actually cost $380,000. The Ymlr road is not yet surfaced although $290,000 has been expended aa against the original estimate of $165,000. the Cariboo highway was estimated to coat $1,027,- 000. The contractors have already received I2.0ull.000. and a further ex- Jendlrure of $315,000 Is necessary to complete lt. • The estimate on the Sumas scheme was a million ond a half. While the cost thus far is $4,080,000 and although the government repeatedly placed the cost of the Oliver project at a million, lt now represents an expenditure of four and one half millions.

Sinking Fund Greater Than Combined fund Four Other Provinces Declaring that criticism of Mrs. M. E. Smith by R. H. Pooley anti other Conservative speakers ln Esquimau riding was unfair, Major J. C. Hartley told over 100 Liberal supporters, meeting In the Church of the Redeemer 1ml! in Pair- view last night under the* auspices of the Ladles' Liberal association, that constructive criticism was a necessary and a good thing. But, he insisted, destructive criticism such ns has featured platform campaign work did not help a bit. D. D. McLean. Nelson Liberal candidate, and Dr. H. H\ MacKenzie. president of the Nelson Liberal association, also spoke. The abuse levelled at Mrs. Smith, the major declared, was not at all in the niture of a clean fight. Though Mr. Pooley was reported as describing Mrs. Smith as an "alley cat," the major Was sure the Conservative house leader said "angry cat." But either was bad. Major Hartley stated that in the case of a pensioner reported at a Conservative meeting Saturday as receiving a monthly pension of $0, the pensioner probably had another source of Income and that the government was making up the difference between it and $20. In this the government wae only following "the letter of the law." COMPARES DRBT Comparing the net debt of British Columbia with that of other provinces, Dr. MacKenzie showed that the province debt was lower than either Saskatchewan's or Ontario's.

The doctor also explained the working of the Mothers' Pensions act, ascribed nrocress in mining in British Columbia to r-ane administration, outlined the road building program, nnd declared the buslnesi of tbe province would be conducted by Liberals as would the husiness of a corporation by n proi'n of business men.

On the first attempt of the Brewster Government to borrow money in 1917 the financial homes asked seven and one- half per cent interest The MacLean Government can borrow as much as it wants at 4.40—and the financial houses (are eager to snap up the Province's securities. The Financial Post, Canada's leading financial newspaper, points out that the purchasing power per capita of the population of British Columbia is $814. This is exactly $100 more than the highly industrialized and older province of Ontario, and far in excess of that of all the other provinces of the Dominion. In British Columbia there are twelve automobiles for every hundred persons. In only one other province are there more. That is in Ontario, where the (percentage is 12.4 for every ■hundred persons. The Finan- |cial Post of Toronto, points to [this as fairly conclusive evidence of British Columbia's prosperity. J Premier Maclean has announced definitely that he will icomplete the sale of the P.G.E. as soon as his Government has been returned to power. Its —posal will mean that $3,000,- 000 annually can be applied to the reduction of taxation. Agricultural production in British Columbia in the 10-ycar period of 1907-1916 amounted to $202,581,0:16. In the period 1917-W26 this had grown to $592,008,299. This increase is attributed to the Liberal Government's policy of selling land for production only. Production from British Columbia's basic industries in 1916 amounted to $124,539,897. In 1926 this had increased to $250,- 720,160. This answers Dr. Tolmie's implication that the present Government has done nothing for agriculture. The number of industrial firms in British Columbia in 1919 was 5,301. This had grown in 1927 to 8,243. Here is a convincing proof of industrial progress—the answer to Dr. Tolmie's complaint that we are not manufacturing our raw materials in the Province. In 1917 British Columbia's industrial payroll totalled $78,- 000,000. In 1927 it had increased to approximately $178,- 000,000. This represents money earned and spent in British Columbia. This expansion very largely is due to the efforts of the Provincial Department of Industries. The election campaign presents a study in contrasts. The Liberal Party is united; the Conservative Party is obliged to issue a statement to the effect that it does not endorse this or that independent candidate. Why swap horses in the middle of the stream? This is the question which the average businessman of British Columbia is asking himself. He knows,that a change of government nearly always unsettles business. He does not propose to take any chances. That is the reason why ' he will vote for the MacLean Government. Take the view of men like Mr. E. W. Beatty, president of the Canadian Pacific Railway company. When he was on the coast recently he said that, as far as his company was concerned, "business in British Columbia is satisfactory and increasing all the time." That ought to satisfy most people that when Dr. Tolmie infers that the Province is going to the bow-wows hi is merely pawing air—not surprising in view of the fact that he has no policy to offer to the electorate for its consideration. Take No Chances bnt Vote For the Liberal Candidate D.D.McLean TRAIL. B.C., July lfl.—Trail Elks band, their wives and friends tonight extended a cordial welcome to William Donnelly, formerly of Clydebank, Scotland, end latterly of Vancouver, who ls their new bandmaster.

Mcdonald has final rally of campaign Answers Challenges Broadcast By Mayor, Clark of Trail ASSERTS COUNTRY IS AHEAD UNDER LIBS Getting More for Money Than Ever Before in History of B. C. He Says TRAIL, B.C., July 16—Declaring that at a recent meeting of the opposition held ln the Gulch, Mayor H. Clark ln speaking for the Conservatives criticised the expenditure of the government and stated they were not fair ln awarding contracts and unfair to the working men, Donald MacDonald, Liberal candidate for Rossiand-Trail riding stated the mayor had nothing "to talk about" as the city council recently aaked the ratepayers of Trail for ♦32,000 to build a reservoir and that ao far the expenditure had been $00,000 and still the reservoir waa not completed. He made the statement at a final Liberal campaign' rally ln I. O. O. F. hall here today. PROPER EXPENDITIHB "It may have been that certain public works were estimated at one price and when completed, the cost was so much more," said Mr. MacDonald, "but the Conservatives don't tell you how much the cost of publlo works was above their estimates. I don't care about the cost or estimate as long as the money was properly expended. The tax payers are entitled to know where their money goes. "We are getting more for the value of our money than ever before ln the history of the province. The conditions of roads before 1916 were terrible but today we are spending 919,000 a year less than the Conservative government spent. BOARD OF DIRECTORS "A government Ib no more than a board of directors," he continued. "The government of the province ls directed by a premier and his cabinet and every act ls first submitted to the house and either supported or rejected The premier ls our managing director and I challenge the opposition to charge him. He has given satisfactory service and the conditions of the province ls flourishing. The money Is economically spent and Cie prov* ince le getting richer and although the taxes are high the people are getting more money to pay them with." In concluding he told his audience to "push hard on Wednesday and we can put tt over". Songs were rendered by Mlas Dorothy Toung, while Bert Taylor pleased the crowd with comic songs, and Eric Brown and J. Whitehead presented a monologue. Refreshments were served and the remainder of the evening was spent in dancing. UNITEDS BEAT MAPLE LEAFS Show Superiority in Defensive Tactics; Leafs* Attack Dangerous TRAIL, B.C.. July 16—Showing superiority tn defensive tactics, combined with good driving power ln thetr center and Inside men, the Unlteds beat the Maple Leafs 3-2 In today's city league soccer game. They were not overwhelmingly superior and had to battle to the last whistle to hold out the dangerous attacks of the Leafs. Leckle, playing a bustling game at center opened scoring with an- opportune left field drive that beat Ball- lie all the way. Smith, following a nice combination play made a capital run down the wing to score unassisted. Bradbury opened for the Leafs during a strong attack by ther right wing which was pushed well Into the goal area. Crelghton in a rugged line attack at 20 minutes to go, bustled through the Leafs' defence to score the Uniteds' third goal. BRENNAN SCORES Brennan, the Leafs' fast moving center, scored the final goal of the game. He took the ball up, passed out to Illott and touched the return for a pretty and successful drive on goal. Crelghton turned in one his best games of the season and Blnks gave a creditable performance at center half. The Leafs as a team, showed nice form. The teams were: Maple Leafs—Baillie. goal; Sammons and Kennedy, backs; Burrows, Balfour ond Young, halves; Leckie, Bradbury, Brennan, Chandler and Illott, forwards. Unlteds—Davis, goal; Ross and Kit- china, backs; Berg, Blnks and Thompson, halvee; Prosch, Smith, J. Leckle, Crelghton and McKinnon. forwards. Referee—W. Llghtbody. EXPLOSION OF I COPPER MATTE CAUSES DEATHS COUNCIL TO ASK TWENTY THOUSAND FOR SEWER WORK Propose Storm Sewer Fr Reservoir to Cost $11,000 BAMFORD GIVES NOTICE; TAXPAYERS TO DECIDE New Sewer Outlet and Pipe on In nis Street; Relieve Bad Situation Bylaw to raise $20,000 to relieve the serious sewer situation ln Nelson ls shortly to be placed before the property holders. Notice of a bylaw to raise this money has been given by Alderman W. B. Bamford, and at a city council meeting last night, a report of City Engineer Boyd C. Affleck outlined the work proposed. To prevent aand washing down city sewers and destroying them, as has been the case for some ttme past, tbe engineer proposes to construct a storm sewer from the reservoir, 8760 feet long, to cost ♦11.000, This would also prevent an overflow at the reservoir similar to that which occurred during the recent extremely wet spell. NEW OITLET Sand carried down during this "flood" season blocked an outlet sewer at the foot of Stanley street, and forced the city to construct a temporary outlet. To prevent this recurring, Mr. Affleck proposes a new outlet, so placed that lt wlll be easy to get at, which will cost S0000. This outlet will be 1600 feet ln length. On Innis street, where surplus water Is now carried off In an open ditch, the engineer proposes to lay a pipe 1200 feet long at a cost of »3000. This he contends, will relieve au unsanitary and unsafe condition. THERE It nothing that has ever taken Aspirin's place as an antidote {or pain.

Hartley in addressing a large gathering at a smoker held In the Liberal committee rooms last night, but for the purpose of defeating R. H. Pooley in his home town. Other speakers during the evening were J. Notman and J. Hunter, who presided. When the Liberals took the reins of government ln 1916, continued Mr Hartley, they oould not borrow money for leaa than 7V4 per cent. Now lt could be easily obtained for aa low as 4.1 per oent. The P. O. E. situation tn 1016, he said, showed that the Conservative party let contracts without calling for tenders, and there resulted an unproductive debt" of W.005.0O. Fifty-one miles of the line which wad never built cost $42,000, and 1163,000 was spent on another section which was never constructed. The Liberals received the responsibility for these. TO RAISE PENSIONS In explaining the Old Age Pension act the speaker stated that the pension would be raised from $20 to $30 a month. Seventy-two per cent of civil service, employees ln British Columbia, he declared, were Conservatives,. J. C. Hunter spoke on the road situation around Nelson and pointed out the roads that have Improved and built during the Liberal regime. These Included tha new Kaalo road, the Nelson-Spokane highway, the Edgewood- Vernon road and numerous others. J. Notman discussed the local conditions and Dr. J. D.

Palmer said that Peharrson was In a state of. collopse when taken to the hospital with wounds on his head, legs and arms. The doctor said there waa very little movement ln the body and that the shock and loss of blood was not sufficient to cause his death. He believed the death was caused from concussion of the brain, fractured skull and shock with Internal Injuries.

Also shall we both put our names on the invitations sent out to my husband's men friends?" Answer: It would be proper if you and your Bister left the house to the men alone, hiring a boy to serve the previously prepared refreshments. Ex plain, ln the Invitations, that no ladles wlll be preaent. You and your sister could Blip away as the first guests arrive, leaving the boy to explain the situation to your husband. Otherwise- It you and your sister were to remain at the party—lt would seem very strange to the men's wives unless they too were Invited. I would prepare a great quantity of hearty sandwiches and have these heaped on your buffet before you leave the house. Make coffee previously, all ready for your boy assistant to heat up and serve. Have generous slices of cake already on plates, or a slice of pie and a wedge of cheese for each guest. No. I would not put your sister's name on the invitations.

There is an abundance of American deciduous fruits and each week sees the anival of new commodities; Bartlett pears and Yellow St. John peaches will arrive next week from California.

We have been a close observer of the berry distribution this year and we do not hesitate to say that had * h*» elements been favorable tbat no over-supply would have been experienced. Brokers hold unfilled orders for over 30,000 crates of strawberries that could not be sent to country points, and this trade Is lost, as the strawberry season ls over, For the first time in the history of B. C. berry marketing the deal has been clean. No shipments were made on uncontrolled consignments to disrupt prices. The tradt* generally gave their support to the B. C. deal and refused to Import American berries during our season. Winnipeg Imported 10 cars of Hood River berries early In the season, these were rollers picked up In Minneapolis. If favorable weather conditions had prevailed to allow B. C. shippers to roll their usual high-class strawberries these Hood River berrcs would have been sut out. The great bulk of the berries shipped from B. C. thin year were -harvested under unfavorable conditions, and the same applies to distribution; country roads Impassable, rain and cold weath received a car from Salmon Arm on daturday that contained quite a lot soft and over-ripe.

Early vegetables from local sources are now in good supply, very little ln ihese lines being Imported. With the exception of an odd shipment or so from the coast region of Washington, cherry Imports have ceased, the supply now being from local sources and from the Okanagan. Some of the shipments from the latter point are showing the effects of rain. This ,s unfortunate for just now the Okanagan product has the market. Prices are somewhat lower. New potatoes are now wholesaling at 3.00- per sack. The deal in this product is going very nicely. Overtrading of the market Is being avoided.

These have arrived ln poor condition, mostly over-ripe and soft.

In doing research work on the liver they have found that it wlll take out from the blood, say 90 per cent or foreign material such as a dye within * period of half an hour. If It takes longer than this, then Sjcoordlng to the length of time taken t*pey can get a fairly accurate idea df what is wrong with the liver. ' If there ls an acute inflammation oi the liver, only 50 per cent of the ' tfye will be removed from the blood by the liver because the liver cells are inflamed so much that they can't ' do tlielr work properly. On the other hand If there ls cancer of the liver, U the cancer only affects a certain portion of the liver cells, the rest of the liver eeljs will be doing their wort properly, and will remove 70 per tent of the dye ln the half hour. They have found that ln individuals srao keep thetr nervous system tensed by anxiety practically all the time, the liver removes only 60 per cent instead of to per oent within the half hour.

Lib Candidate Supported by Turgeon of Vancouver; Appeals for Support KASLO, B.C., July 16—One of the most enthusiastic meetings In the interests of Capt. S. C. Leary, Liberal candidate for Slocan-Kaslo, during the present campaign was that held here Friday evening. Supporting the candidate on the platform was J. O. Turgeon of Vancouver who cleverly answered the criticisms offered by Conservative speakers regarding the profligacy of the MacLean administration. Mr. Turgeon analyzed ihe government's financial statements, declaring that no other province ln Canada was In such sound condition. Charges of excessive Increases In the debt of British Columbia were unfounded, he said, and a study of the balance sheet would prove his contention. This statement, he explained, was prepared annually by the comptroller-general, an official ln no way responsible to the government and who could only be dismissed from office by act of the legislature. And yet we find our political enemies going about the country deliberately misquoting these authentic reports," charged the speaker. "Hero we have proof that where the government has been accused of spending large sums ln reality a big percentage haa gone into the provincial sinking fund to retire the debt. It Is also an Indisputable fact that while the gross debt has Increased the revenue- producing debt haa increased by leaps and bounds." Mr. Turgeon dealt wtth what he termed, the efficient management of British Columbia affairs by the Liberal government, a management which had placed the province in the most enviable position of all the provinces of Canada, and he urged his hearers to study carefully the entire election Is sue before voting an efficient administration out of office. U:\icv HEAHjh Capt. Leary placed before, the meeting an account of hla actions while representing the riding in Victoria during the past four years. He said that he had obtained appropriations and grants far ln excess ot the average and claimed that thts had resulted ln rapid development of the district. The Liberal candidate again reviewed the mining situation, pointing out that through the opening up of the constituency by roads and trails mining had obtained a new lease of life. He spoke of the great mineral resources of Slocan-Kaslo and declared that no other section of the province held as much promise in the development of the Industry. The fairness of the government's policy ln regard to mining laws and assistance had meant much to this section of the province and he promised that lf returned on Wednesday he would redouble his efforts to have the undeveloped sections developed. Capt. Leary dealt at some length with social and labor legislation. Hc claimed to have a' fuller knowledge of the needs of labor as a result of his personal business. His own Interests were Identical with those of the electors and he urged that a vote cast for him on election day meant a vote for the interests of those who supported him.

There were many things that he could teach her— They reached the Claredon. a Bohemian spot of the better class, Quite small, and Briscoe helped her to get out. He ordered his chauffeur to return for them at a certain hour, and together he and Mrs. Ridgeway walked into the tiny lobby. Roellyn's face fell when she saw no sign of Landis. "Just leave your cloak ln the ladles' room while I do some telephoning," announced her escort. "We'll soon get ln touch with Clarldge's. I'll have the whole place paged, and if he isn't there, I'll call up your suite and find out if he's sent a message. Run along" She did as she was told. Mr. Briscoe was being extraordinarily kind, and she appreciated kindness. Landis was so often brusque, these days, and inattentive. But—the thought came home to her like a twist of a knife ln a wound— wasn't theirs merely 'a marriage of convenience'. (And she loved him sol) She tried to fluff her hair out ln becoming style. What was Che matter with her frock? "It looks exactly like a nightgown!" she thought, vexedly.

Would ahe ever grow accustomed to the Jargon of the social set? Would she ever learn smart talk and 'persiflage Would she ever be anything but the square peg tn the round hole, with 'edges' that were crude and jarring? Nowhere did she 'belong'. Today's episodes at the polo game had proved it. A friend or two of her husband's had come up to talk to her. but they j Boon sheered off ln boredom, or in amazement at her relatives! Those relatives had so many faux pas'. Worse than their mlssllps—these she could forgive—they had tried to 'live up' to her new. exalted position, by 'posing', dreadfully, and acting in a most unnatural, preposterous manner. It was disheartening too, to learn that, by some queer mental process, those relatives blamed her for her father's lack of legacies—for the fact that he had died without a Willi She had given them generous sums of money—yet the feeling of 'having been badly done by' (aa they put It)— lingered ln their minds. "You'll be so uppish now, Rosle, that you'll not be condescending to the likes of us! But glad enough you were in the old days—" (and etcetera). "You know I'd anything for any of you, at any time." she had stammered almost weeping. "We're not wanting charity," a gruff cousin granted. And— ' "It's evident some of your fine friends think we're not good enough to as •Delate with," a great-ant snorted.

Each year more Canadians have looked to General Motors for better automobiles, until now, every two minutes of every business day, someone in Canada buys a new General Motors car. These cars are bought by people you know I , by people like yourself . . for the very reasons which would guide you in l of a car. They are bought because they ate the product of the most progressive organization in the world's most progressive industry • ('because they reflect the General Motors policy of constant advancement . . because they are better cars. . . They represent the latest develops««nts of the world's leading automotive research laboratory, offering these developments to the public as soon as they become available.. They are proved in advance, at the expense-of General Motors, not the public. They are better cars because they are Canadian cars.

By AL DEMAREE (Former Pitcher New York Giants) A strange rumor that an unknown young hero pro had the championship sewed up sped like wildfire over the Olympic Fields coure during the close of the national open golf tournament, Hagen's and Jones' galleries of thousands melted away and raced to watch young Roland Hancock of Wilmington. N.C., play his last two holes. Hancock, who had been trudging around the course for three days wtth only his partner.

He needed only to play the last two holes ln Ss, one over par, to win the greatest honor ln golf with Its reward of glory and gold The rest of the story Is golf tragedy. His game suddenly broke and he took out two 6s and lost. I saw him Immediately after he had finished and instead of the miserable dejected figure I expected to see, he was the most light-hearted man In the locker room. While dozens of the great pros and amateurs were cussing and bemoaning their tough luck, this young fellow who had missed the chance of a lifetime was really smiling. "It was a valuable experience," he said, "and I'll be up and at 'em again next year." I aaked Leo DIegel what he would have done on the seventeenth tee under the same circumstances, needing only two 6s to win. "I'd have probably taken a couple of 8s," he said.

Trafalgar league leaders hung up their fifth straight win in as many games played, when they defeated the Married Men 13-10, tn what was about the most uninteresting and "rot- tenest" game seen at the Trafalgar grounds this year. A disorganized Senator team, with only eight men on the field, resulted ln sloppy f.eld ing. and their continual squabling over Umpire Julius Roisterer's decisions made the game a farce. HOME Rl'N PASACRETA But for the heavy hitting of Paaacreta. newly signed on by the Senators, they must surely have gone down to an overwhelming defeat. Pasacreta slammed out a homer with two men on bases, another with three men on, and a two- bagger that scored one man, making a total of eight runs scored by his heavy hitting. In the last half of the final Inning when two men were out and two men on bases for the Married Men, James Brennan, manager, claimed that Catcher Arcure of the Senators had Interfered with Jack Horswlll when he attempted to strike. Umpire Reisterer did not see the interference, but sent Horswlll to first base. Senators kicked up a "holler" and won their point, Horswlll returning to bat. but while the "squibble" was going on Affleck scored from third. Mr. Reisterer held that he did not call time and the run was allowed, although when scored the field waa overflowing with spectators and practically all of the Married Men's team.

SPOKANE SYNDICATE HAS GREAT FIND AT DEPTH Evidence of Latest Wealth Waiting Vainly for Transportation Facilities Reports of a gold strike on the Red Elephant ln fhe Upper Duncan country, surpassing aaythlng of like character of recent times, have been brought to Nel- »n by J. W. Mulholland, who came down after taking ln a permanent crew for the Riverside property on McOulre creek. According to the reports Mr. Mulhol land heard on the way down, following alnklng of a shaft laat year, in which the gold values of the Red Elephant vein increased with depth, a tunnel was started recently to give depth, and thla has penetrated the vein, which at that point has a width of cloae to 30 feet, with vlaible gold throughout thc entire width. Mining men of that district, Mr. Mulholland states, say lt is the biggest gold strike the southern interior has known. KASLO MEN HAD IT Tho Red Elephant, which ls about 25 milea from Howser lake, and located on Hall creek, a tributary of the Upper Duncan river, coming in from the west, is being operated by Joseph Morris and associates, of Spokane. It was formerly owned by Hugh McKay and his partner Mr. Powers, the Kaslo freighter. This strike ls one more evidence, Mr Mulholland states, of the latent wealth of the Duncan country, whose develop, ment ls being held up for lack of tran. portatiou facilities.

FORTNIGHT PAYROLL OVER TWO THOUSAND City of Nelson payroll for the past two weeks amounted to $3028.60, the council was informed last night. MONTREAL. July 17.—After a session of two hours, the Olympic committee selected the boxers who will represent Canada in the Olympic games to be held at Amsterdam during the month of August. The session was held following the Olympic finals decided at the Forum last night. It was decided not to send representatives in the heavyweight or the middleweight classes. The committee decided to send Prank Battagllo, of Winnipeg, although he was beaten in his bout by McCormick last night in the semi-final. The decision was unpopular wltb the public and In view of his clever performance, the committee took into consideration his smart work and sent him with the team. At the meeting another wrestler was added to the team. He will go with the boxers on Wednesday morning. The selection was: 112 pounds—Frank Martin, Montreal 118 pounds—Vincent Olionna, Toronto. 126 pounds—H. 8. Stewart. Montreal 147 pounds—Ray Smillie, Toronto. 175 pounds—Don Carrick, Toronto. ISO pounds—Volkert. Montreal and Frank Battagllo. Winnipeg. Wrestler. 134 pound class—Danny MacDonald, Toronto. ACTION, APLENTY There was action aplenty at the Forum tonight. In ths finals, tn only three bouts, were the Judges called upon to render a decision for the other five, the losing boxer showed such unmistakable signs of being unable to finish the fight that ths contest was stopped by the referee. In every decision above the lightweight the victor won on a technical knockout and ln the 118 pound class the Dominion champion at that weight, Jimmy Connelly, also suffered the same fate. The fans objected to lour or five decisions handed down throughout the evening but it was ths declaration of the Judges that Frank McCormick had won his fight with Battagllo of Winnipeg, that brought down a storm of derision from the house. T. O. Gallery gave the decision to the little Italian, but J. R. Kellogg and F. C. Roberts gave ths right to the local man. KIMBERLEY, B.C.. July 16.—Speaking before an audience that filled to capacity the Odd Fellows hall here tonight, Leon J. Ladner. M.P., fired what is considered ths last shot ln the loeal campaign for the selection of a member for the Cranbrook electoral district. N. A. Walllnger, the member ln the last house,, preceded the visiting speaker ciinfining his remarks to matters of local Issue. Hs supported his claim to being a fit representative of s mining town by giving a history of 40 years ln which ln one way or (another as assayer, prospector or filling official positions such as mining recorder and cold commissioner, he had been identified with mining. Referring to the speech of Hon. J. B. DeB Farrls In which he made the statement that he did not think Mr. Ladner would show up In tCimberiey. Mr. Ladner stated that his only regret was that Mr. Farrls was not sitting on the same platform to hear what he had to say. In the statement of Mr Farrls. that the net debt of ths province when the Liberals took office was $20,000,000 and not $18,000,000 as the Conservatives tried to make out, the speaker claimed that the correctness of tbe Conservatives was proven by the word of Hon. John Hart, who. in 1933. when giving the net Indebtedness of the province as at November 30. 1916, stated that it was $10,677,000. Hc claimed this figure was twice confirmed since by Dugad Donaghy and Hon. Mr. Manson In recent speeches. He claimed that he could prove from cffictal documents the Increase ln the provincial net debt during the Liberal regime by over four times and on taxes by over three tiroes. On the authority of, the Dominion government, the per capita expenditures were double any other province of Canada and three and one-half times that of Quebec, or Manitoba. Such reckless extravagence and mismanagement of provincial affairs .he claimed were striking a vital blow at the Influx of capital for the development of the great mineral re sources, forest products, fisheries and agriculture. Out of $273,000,000, being thc total of our annual revenue and Increased indebtedness during the past 11 yeara. $ll000.000 were spent on roads; $33,000,000,000 on the P. O. I. What he asked has happened to the remaining $221,000,000. From official document* Mr. Ladner ave facts and figures which he clalm- d went to show the worst kind of xtravagance and mismanagement by ho Liberal government.

City Employees Will Not Get Half Holiday Tomorrow for Voting City employees will not be idven half holiday tomorrow, election day, the city council decided laat night.

It was contended the men. most of whorr quit work at 4 p.m.. had plenty"hi policy of state health Insurance and maternity benefit* This subject was thoroughly debated ln the provincial legislature each year from 1919 to 1922. By reason of the aggressive stand of the Conservative party the government appointed a Royal commls- (sion which after careful investigation made a full report ln 1822. To w/rd off action, he said, the government refused to have the report printed so that members of the legislature and the public could be acquainted with the facts that the commission had made a favorable report. Por six years the Liberal government had taken no action but now on the eve of an election hoped to Induce the public to believe that they were sincere ln their promises. He claimed that the pathway of the Liberal government was strawn with unfulfilled promises anjd broken pledges. Thousand;; of dollars, of the peoples' money;- on eve of election were being spent on every road and cross-road ln the mistaken belief that the franchise of free electors of a British province could be Influenced by practice of that kind. He claimed that careful enflulry Indicated that 76 per cent of those giving their honest toll for a fair wage on the roads of this province at the present, time would vote with absolute freedom to put out the Liberal government on the 18th of July.
