<^*ry **������bk I I Published in the Interests of Greater Vancouver. VOLUME 111 H. H. Stevens, Editor. VANCOUVER, British Columbia, SEPTEMBER 15, 1911. No. 19 OF INTEREST TO WORKERS. The Canadian workingman has nothing to gain by reciprocity.- On tlie contrary he stands to lose much, lie is prosperous and fully employed, while tens of thousands of American artisans walk the streets looking for employment. lie is. well ������������������'off .under the national policy, and will do nothing 'to impair its beneficial operations or to endanger its perpetuation. Iu the history of nations free trade has meant low wages, unemployment and luider-nourish- ment. The present reciprocity measure is just a step towards free trade, low wages and nnemploy-. ment. Already tariff tinkering in the United States has been followed by hard times, unemployment and a demand on the part of employers that railway workmen and.other toilers shall take lower wages. ���������, Look at England. According to a British Government report, recently issued the workingman of the United Kingdom is not, nearly so well off as the workingman on this continent. The report finds that cheap food is of little use to him ifche. has no money to buy it. Great Britain always has millions of workless people and those who have employment receive wages that Canadians would not accept. In the long run. therefore. Canadian eity dwellers must oppose free trade in food products because it would lead directly to free trade in manufacturers. The attitude of Ur. Taft and other politicians in the United States, and of the Grain Growers' Association and other reciprocity advocates in Canada leaves no doubt that the abolition of the duties on natural products would make quickly for the removal of the protection now enjoyed by our manufacturing industries and the operatives engaged therein. Any approach to general free trade would subject our industries to destructive competition from the all-powerful American trusts. What could the outcome be but ruin for Canadian factories, Canadian industrial centers and Canadian workingmen'? So much for the long range results of reciprocity! How about the immediate consequences of the compact? What about the Government argument that the agreement would lower-the cost, of living to consumers? It could not do so without reducing the income of Canadian farmers. More than this is involved���������a great deal more. Once the American food trusts get^eoutrol of our markets they woifld "force Canadum">Hgrieulturists to take less for their produce and Canadian, consumers to pay more for their table supplies. That is what they have done in the United States which grows a surplus of between four and five hundred million dollars worth of foodstuffs over and above the country V own requirements. How could we prevent "them doing the same thing in the Dominion? -y-y���������-���������..=/. There is more than this to be considered. The New York Tribune shows that the cold storage 'trust has used the storage warehouses of the United States as a reservoir for the purpose of cornering produce aiid depleting the markets. In the 'cheap season perishable foods have been bought on a large scale and held for sale at high prices throughout the remainder of the year. In the United States the .law of supply and demand has been suspended by the fact that there has beem no limitation on the period of storage, and dealers with big stocks on hand could create an artificial scarcity by withholding them, if they Iffiougl^tliH^l^rableV ^fn^TnTrryuT^IiWiroveF^ into another year. - Not only have these methods robbed the Amer- 'ican producer and the American sonsumer. They It have=also resulted in the consumer being fed with ' decayed food. The Tribune observes: " The pub- It lie is not unwilling to pay for the privilege of eatT ing foods out of season, but it has bitterly resented the deception by which it has hitherto been vie-" itimized into purchasing storage foods of unknown 'age. Storage goods have also been constantly sold as fresh, and the higher prices for fresh produce Lhave been collected." Whether, therefore, we regard the immediate results or the ultimate eonse- I'quences of reciprocity, it could not but prove disastrous to Canadian workingmen and city dwellers generally as well as to the average Canadian [farmer. ���������H*������'4.f.������.t.>..M.^"t.������.M"l'.������ <*���������-������������������*���������.<���������.* ���������.������������������..���������"I*. ������������������������������������-������-������������* I QUOTATIONS AND QUESTION r "We look "forward to the day when this whole aNorth American continent .will" be one great miction as it should be."���������New York .Journal.

Riseley. of Bristol, rho this morning addressed the Board of Trade, ['is my idea of what reciDrpcitxishoiUd be." i '7 -. .." ' i'.: *:. S^^:^-k^:l^Mif^^e^^^imSM During the present campaign the attention of the public has largely been confi ned4o the Reciprocity issue. There are, however,"a number of other questions whieh^shotddJiaue^pubUc^moUce-amiong-tlie the ['Fisheries Question." ��������� The Pacific Coast fishing industry is one of oiir most valuable assets and should be properly conserved and carefully administered. What do we find is the actual condition f We findihtU-thi8]grmt-indmtry-i8 control ed by local political heelers^ We find that in place of white men, British subjects, and Canadian citizens thai the Japanese have control of the labor part. For instance, a herring sei-ning license costs $50.00, and on the face of the license is a stipulation that it must be used by the licensee, but as a matter of fact it is impossible for a man to get a license UNLESS HE STANDS IN WITH THE LOCAL LIBERAL PATRON AGE COMMITTEE. The application is made to the inspector who refers it to Mr. Robert Kelly and the aforesaid committee, and THEY PASS JUDGMENT. These licenses arc held by political friends of the ''Boss/7and are sold or handled on shares with Ja}>s. In 1909, 22,000 tons, or 220,000 barrels of herring were shipped to China by these Japs. In 1910,30,000 barrels, were sent. This past season, however, the run was less owing to these reckless methods and the season was extended into the spawning time, and millions of fish thus destroyed. litis extension was granted because the local "ring" had provided a huge quantity of salt, etc.. and wished to have it used up, hence, the extension of time. ��������� In recent years "several'complaints have been made to Ottawa re this state of affairs, but in place of the department dealing with the question they simply made carbon copies of the letters and forwarded them on here to the "ring" or'���������'���������patronage'committee ana'the" Boss." In place of this industry being a valuable asset to the community il is....simply used as a sop to the politicalI heelers here, to their personal profit, and the lasting disgrace of the administration at Ottawa and the loss of our citizens. In place of thousands of sturdy white men we have thousands of aliens. In place of general benefit to the Province and Dominion it is.simply a benefit (6 a feu- unscrupulous heelers. 7 The Dominion regulations, such as they are, are totally ignored UNDER INSTRUCTIONS OF HON. WM. TEMPLEMAN. * The Government also either own or hire about 25 fisheries inspection boats and THEY ARE SUPPLIED BY THE "BOSS" AND HIS GANG OF PETS. No tenders are ever called for supplies far these boats, but these heelers CHARGE THEIR OWN FIGURES FOR THE SUPPLIES. It is time that this should be stopped. Mr. Senkler has refused to interfere. lie is president of the local Liberal Association and knows all about it. Aid. Stevens has publicly e-xposed.this deal and has promised the "Ring" the liveliest time of their life when he is returned to Ottawa, therefore support the man who will care for your interests. Let us abolish this iniquitous system of graft and patronage to pets in direct contravention of law and decency. ������'i-t������������-������'i"i" 9< 9 ���������"��������� '��������� I" >������������������������������������>������������������ 9'9 *>9 ��������� < ��������� 9 9.9 9 +-������*+-������������ > ������������������i>i������<-������ ������������������i.4' ������.������i������.t������������������������ ������.t������t-n-twtw������..t* THE GLOBE TOLP ONLY HALF THE STORY They Dare Not Tell the Pacts About the Cattle Trade. Among the many alluring arguments presented, by Liberal newspapers and Liberal candidates to secure the farmer's vote in favor of the Fielding- Paterson agreement, is the quoting of figures as found in market reports, purporting to show the " relative values of cattle in Canada and the United States. Mr. Hugh Guthrie, at his meetings, where he addresses people whom he doubtless describes as "the stalwart yeomanry, "aiid The Globe, are particularly, sinners in this respect. Only a few days ago The Globe had a large item on the front page of its issue.. "Markets the Real Issue." ��������� '7 Therein are quotedexport steers in Toronto, $5.88: and good to prime steers in Chicago. $6.62. A still greater difference has been referred to by speakers, showing as much.as $1.25 to $1.75 a hundred pounds in favor of the Chicago market as against Toronto. "Farmers will insist on larger markets -when, they fully understand what it. means." adds The Globe, taking very good care to only tell one-half���������and not let the farmer fully understand, what it means! The Real Pacts. What are the real facts? What do these figures mean? Why is there this difference in prices between Toronto and Chicago? The "full understanding" The Globe does not give; that The Globe does not want given, nor does the quoter of market prices, Mr. Guthrie, give to his audiences, is, that cattle of the same grade are practically the same price in, either market. Export steers intended for Liverpool or London will be the same price practically in Toronto. Buffalo or Chicago. And why should they not be? They are to sell in Liverpool or London. And is it not the moat manifest nonsense to try and make the public believe that a steer will only fetch $6.25 in Toronto and $7 in Chicago, when in both cases Liverpool ia. its ultimate destination? Are there any cattle then that are worth $1 more in Chicago than Toronto ? Yes, undoubtedly! A rich American will pay anything for, any thing he wants. There are a tew choice, extra fed, extra bred, extra finished steers that do fetch $8 in Chicago, when perhaps the best are only bringing the same day in Toronto $6.50 or $6.75. Why? Because in'Chicago there is a small demand for that extra value cattle, . ,the demand produces the supply: a Jew,- quite a few. are sold at that price. Nobody in Toronto will pay any such figure; the highest value is. equivalent to the price paid for the best export cattle, and no more. But let it be well marked, that the best export cattle in Toronto are as high a price as the best export in Chicago. So that reciprocity will not bring to the farmer any better price for his cattle than he gets under present conditions. Here Is the Proof. Moog & Greenwald, (Commission Buyers of Cattle. Hogs. Sheep. Chicago, III.. Aug. 25, 1911. Messrs. J. & J. W. Dunn, Toronto, Ont. Gentlemen: - Our receipts this week were considerably heavier than last, and yet the good, choice cattle did not sell any lower, while the medium and common kinds sold 20 to 755 cents per cwt. lower. A. fair to good shipment of Liverpool (native) cattle would have, cost, this week. _from $6.00_to__. $6.50 and Londons from $6.35 to $6.75. according to fat and quality; fair to good Antwerp and Liverpool blls. $5.00 to $5.40. and scarce: fair to good Antwerp steers,.$5.85 to $6.25, according to fat and quality. ���������> Yours truly, (Signed) MOOG & GREKXVVALD. On the same date. August 25th. The Globe quotes- Toronto cattle'market best exporters. $6.10 to $6.80;-' Chicago. $5.10 to $8.10. There were no $S.1() cattle in Canada for sale. What there were ���������Liverpool or London export cattle, sold equally well in Toronto or Chicago. Why should Liberal politicians tell one-hnlf the story? They dare not tell all the facts! Most people think, at. least the wage-earner on both skies of the border does so think, that, the farmer today is getting very good value for all lie sells, and they do not want to increase his deposit account at the bank out of their hard-earned wages. ANNEXATION. "It appears that there is very strenuous opposition in'Canada to the treaty, but farmers >:\ro favorably disposed since it-would-open our markets for'" their, products. "Free trade between the' two countries will eventually follow the .-enactment of '-the. present measure and that will mean, ultimately, peaceful annexation. "There'is no doubt .about that. Not. of course, in this generation, but it wiil surely conie. in a later one. Canadians who would deplore such result had better watch out." The above is an extract from the'Farmers' Journal of -Philadelphia, with the largest .circulation of any journal.-iii the United States. THE WISE COURSE. As Mr.. W. T. White, has said, if the United States wants.our foodstuffs, let it take down its tariff and get them. Then our farmers will have, the American market ancl their own magnificent protected home market as well. -���������i-.A ;%:.���������������?

The gulls and cormorants, filling the air with raucous cries, were rustling in rapid flight in the wake of the boat, darting ever and anon at the water or making daring pecks at the floating carcass. Soon Brand glanced over his shoulder to measure the distance.. With the ease o fa practised oarsman he turned his craft to bring her stern on to the landing-place. "Lower a basket!" he cried to Jones, and, whilst the others wondered what the urgency in his voice betokened, there reached them the deep strong blast of a steam-whistle blown four times in quick succession. Each and all, they had forgotten the Princess Royal. She vvas close in, much nearer than mail steamers usually ventured. At first they gazed at her with surprise, Brand even suspending his manoeuvres for a moment. Then Jim, knowing that' a steamship trumpets the same note to express all sorts of emotion, understood that the officers had witnessed a good deal, if not all, that had taken place, and were offering their congratulations. "Blow away, my hearties!" crowed Jim, vainly apostrophizing the vessel. "You'll have somethin' to crack about when you go ashore to-night or I'm very much mistaken. Now, cap'n," he went on, "take the cover off. It's alive, 1 suppose. Is it a man, or i woman?" ' CHAPTER II. / A CHRISTENING.

Re- "J*.''' freshing as the long swim was after V" a night of lonely vigil, itself the cuV a mination of two days of hard work, the .fierce battle with the shark had shocked Into active existence the reserve of: latent enrgy -which every healthy animal unconsciously hoards for life-and-death emergencies. But there was another reason. Het had scarce gained the comparative safety of the boat before he was, ln the same instant/: horrified and astounded to a degree, hitherto beyond his experience. 777N6t even 'the stiff pull of two hundred yards sufficed to regtore his senses. So Jim's question fell on his ears Avith the meaningless sound of the steamer's siren. "What Js it, mate?" repeated his fellow-keeper, moreT. insistently. "You ain't hurt any ways*- are you?" "Ft is-'a Ijaby," ^aid Brand, in a curiously vacant v'ay. "A baby!" shrieked Jones, whose crudely developed nervous Eystem was not proof against the jar of incredulity induced by this statement. Had Brand said "a tiger," he could not have exhibited greater concern. "Yes, a baby���������and it is living. I heard it cry," murmured the other, sitting down rather suddenly. . Indeed, a faint wail, suggestive of a kitten, now came from beneath the tumbled canvas quite near to Jim. But the Royal Navy does not encourage neurosis. The lighthouse keeper felt that a minor crisis had arrived. It must be dealt with promptly. , The evil odor which still adhered to-the-boat^told_himyhat=Brandyi^ exchanged one Inferno for another, "when he clambered out of reach of the blindly vengeful shark. He looked up at Jones. "Lower away," he said, promptly. "Swing the derrick until I grab the tackle, .-and0then hoist me aboard," This was done. Ungainiy in his walk owing to his wounded limb, Jim, clinging to a rope, had the easy, activity of a squirrel. . "Now, lower a jug with some bran- 'dy. He's dead be'at," he added. Whilst Jones hastened for the spirit, the sailor stooped and }threw back 'the Sail. Lying in the bottom of the boat, wrapped in :a blanket which unavail-/ ing smuggles had rumpled into a roll i'beneath the arms, was an infant ���������whose precise age it was impossible to estimate forthwith owing to the ���������emaciated conditldn of its body. With the rocking of the boat, the foul bilge-water washed around the child's limbs and back. Instinct alone had saved it from drowning. Perhaps, during the first hours of vigor after ��������� abandonment the little one might have rolled over in infantile search ���������for food and human attendance, but ;the rush of salt, water into ey^ and mouth must have driven the tiny sufferer "to seek instantly the only posi- 'tion;In which life was possible. So far as the man could judge in a first hasty glance, the child's clothing was of excellent quality. Yet he ;gave -slight heed to such considerations. Jim was the father of thr^e lusty "youngsters who were snugly in bed in Penzance, and the sight ot this forlorn little sea-waif made his eyes misty. He reached down, unpinned the blanket, which was secured with a brooch, and lifted the infant out of its unpleasing environment.

WATCHFUL PARENTS Make Home Attractive to the Children and Welcome Their Friends Mothers should realize that it will not do ' to permit-a ������������������ daughter.... to' go where she'will at her own discretion, to seek her associates where she may. They must know what her amuse-' ments are, whose company she cultivates, where she spends her leisure. Mothers, retrace your steps, stand at her side, , be her age, think her thoughts, commune with youth, learn again its lessons, share its blessed hopes, lead it around the pitfalls by gentle counsel, "persuasive reason, says Woman's World. Do not make it necessary for the young people to go away from home for their good times". Make home attractive, their friends welcome, Make deceit unnecessary. When they go elsewhere find, out where they spend the time, with whom they spend it, in what manner they spend it. Precaution often saves a heartache by-and-by. Many a brand has been snatched from the burning by a knowledge that came in time. Many a mother's heart has been bowed in shame and sorrow by a lesson learned too late. Parents cannot afford to trust too much, to expect too much, to be indifferent, compiaisant, neglectful. When the time of payment comes, their house will be left unto them desolate. Is your home a home? Do your sons and daughters come in to meals and to sleep, go out at will and no questions asked, no interest manifested? Do they keep irregular hours? Are they practically under their own entire control? It is not easy to see how any mother can sit at ease, hearing the door close behind son or daughter going out; for an evening, not knowing to a certainty how and where it is to be passed. It is not easy to see how she can bear td feel them going away from her into companionship and among influences of which she is ignorant; how she can so far forget her stewardship; how she can quiet her conscience. No gambler takes such chances or plays for such high stakes as the woman who holds a child iri trust. ���������'-'���������'��������� A case that holds an enormous power for evil recently came to note, however. In a nicelyrfurnlshed flat lived a young couple with their two small children. *" But the son and daughter took advantage sometimes of their parents' absence, and had the wrong kinds of friends in to amuse them. This, however, was put a stop to by their father and mother when they learnt the facts. Soon all was altered, and things went happily again. 7 Vigilance is necessary on the part of all parents who want their sons and daughters to grow up uneontaminated. Loving care and thought for one's children must be accompanied by * firm hand to guide then*:. ' Children who love to obey their parents make the best citizens. X.OTAX, OBANOE Z.OBOE MT. PLEASANT L.

The. best part of a summer's day is the early morning; let the children,enjoy it. They wiil benefit more from an hour in the open air then than from two later in the day. To keep a strong, healthy child in bed until seven or half-past may be positive cruelty. A child is like a bird; the moment he wakes be wants to be out. '������������������ ' - - -��������� ��������� ��������� HOME-MADE SOAP An excellent way of using up waste dripping, fat skimmings, etc., is to make scouring soap of them. The fat need hot be fresh; but it must be first melted down and strained. To every pound of fat allow one pound of red ash, two ounces of resin, and one gallon of water. Boil from five to six hours, according to the quantity, stirring frequently during the time. If it becomes too thick, add more water. The resin is not added until five minutes before the soap is lifted, and a handful of salt is added at the same time. I&veliness Should Not tie Banished From this Much-Used Room Instead of "pleasant," the word "pretty" would have been used if there had been no fear of arousing the scorn of the housewife who prides herself on being above ali things strictly practical.' But as a matter of fact there is nothing to prevent the pretty kitellen from being as "practical" as anyone can wish. Indeed, it Is likely to bs far more convenient than is the average kitchen, where everything not considered "good enough" for other rooms is allowed to collect. As the kitchen is the room in which most housewives 'spend the greater partof7their-4ime,Jvhy_shou!d=ail-love^ liness be banished from it? Practically considered, it ought to' be among the' chief rooms to receive careful attention both as to decoration and fur-. Hisning. The first consideration, of course. Is exquisite cleanliness. For this reason a washable paper should he chosen, and as it is washable there is no reason for selecting a dark one on even the brightest morning. A tile pattern in cream and bright green is amongst the most suitable, though cream and scarlet adds notably to cheeriness of aspect. If the latter is choseu then oak-grain paint looks well, and also wears well; .with green paper, paint to match is more effec tive. instead of a bluey-white wash for the ceiling, a cream-tinted one lasts longer, and is also less suggestive of out-buildings. Carpet ln the kitchen is very inadvisable, and a pleasant, not to say pretty kitchen never contains oddments of carpets from all parts of the house. Instead, a substantial linoleum of quiet pattern and harmonising with the wall-paper should entirely cover the floor, the only matting allowed being a bright-hued hearthrug, which should be taken up during cooking operations. The best- ornaments for the kitchen are brightly- polished pots and pans, and, it may be added, a neat row of .enamelled canisters duly lettered, containing various dry goods. Nicely-framed little pictures are so inexpensive nowadays that there is littie excuse for plastering the kitchen walls with staring almanacks.

But in j case of a very bad attack, which will j not yield to.these simple remdies, the best thing to do is to wet a sponge in very cold water and lay it on the back of the neck, if a sponge is not ������.t hand, any cold substance, such as a k������|y, slipped down the back under the clothes will generally give relief.

The bones ' &Mei\ ~ found near Neolithic barrows -evidence the great antiquity of.the -^cRwsiom of feasting at the grave, as a ������Kjmgensal act between the dead and the living, aud the numerous cloven fifeoUs and other human remains point their belief this seemed more certain than burial w.i,th ponderous weights on the body, and a ring-fence surrounding. However, the old conception of the timl> as a home bf the dead never died out, and numbers of so-called "house-urns" have been discovered as receptacles of the funereal pyre ashes. Wholesome and sanitary as was this practice, it has prevented the preservation of articles throwing light.'on the dress and habits of the people. Silver was preferred to gold, being much commoner, and more convenient for bartering. Lead was known before iron, as deposits have been discovered with bronze findings; and for a long time the term brouze or copper was applied to iron, and most words for iron are derived from the Latin aes equals copper. It is supposed ��������� that the first iron ever known was obtained from oerolites, the Coptic name for iron, meaning "the stone from heaven." Iron was smelted on the shores of the Black Sea in the time of Homer (about B.C. 850); how much earlier���������if at all���������in Asia is unknown. ���������'..-';.. With the appearance of iron* tools and weapons the story of Primitive Man is ended. In the Age of Iron there is no place for spirits���������good/bad or indifferent.

There are vast ages which separate the chippers of flint from the highest'' types living; we are, as far as'.we..- choose to take advantage of our civilization, the results of his slow .progress. There are long, sad monotonous ages, strewn with his rough implements before any great impulses to advance, as came through knowledge of metals was given; from the savage implements to complicated machinery, from rude scratchings on stone or bone to sculpture and painting of the highest order, from dugout canoe to stately liners, and ad infifinitum.

In connection with the7widening of Main street now in progress the engineer-reported-thaWthe-road=varied in width from 55 to 80 feet and that he had no power to move the posts of the original survey on this thoroughfare except by the sanction of the, surveyor general, "ihe engineer was instructed to obtain necessary author- ity from the surveyor general and to define the proper limits of the road. Mr. Wigman appeared before the council to protest against his taxes for 1911. He stated that in 1910 his property was assessed as "wild land" when it was really improved property and that he then took his papers to the assessor and tax collector for correction. He had never received any notification since and the same error was reported this year. In these circumstances he expected the council to inquire into the neglect of the responsible oflicials but the Reeve informed him the council were unable to attend to it as the matter had already been passed by the Court of Revision. 7 Applicant considered the decision very hard as he had taken every reasonable care last year to get the mistake corrected and it was up to the council to see that the officials did their duty' as it was only reasonable to expect a complaint once made to be attended to and not require and annual renewal. Yet another new" department to fill the new municipal premises was suggested by Mr. Springford the new- clerk. He. recommends the appointment of a purchasing department in order that this part of the corporation affairs might be thoroughly checked and placed on a systematic basis. -\ Mr, Springford's plan Is for the appointment of an official to purchase and keep separate accounts of the distribution of the goods. The council appeared in favor of the sug^r gestion and it is thought it will be adopted in a few days. Meanwhile what does the store keeper do if he does not already account for the distribution of the stores. The clerk's suggestion seems to imply a present neglect of system and checking and with eight months of the year gone with an exceptional;expenditure prbbr ably the ratepayers may express some opinion; - Mr. Price of the Crematory Company which is erecting a crematorium next to the cemetery attended the council to explain the company's position in installing their plant without consulting the council or obtaining their sanction. Mr. Price undertook that the institution should in no sense be a nuisance and mentioned that he had obtained the city's permission in the belief that that would be sufficient. He now submitted plans and these were referred to the Board of Works. The council accepted invitations to attend the opening of the Central Park Agricultural Exhibition and also the North Vancouver Horticultural Exhibition.' The board of works are not satisfied that the contractors for the new municipal hall are doing their utmost to complete that structure and at its presentr'rate - of=bui Id ing^ South���������Vancouver is likely to tie annexed to the city before the new city hall can be utilised. It was decided to press the urgency of the matter at the next council meeting. At the last meeting of the South Vancouver School trustees on Monday last the board had again to grapple with the extraordinary inflow of pupils. Notwithstanding numerous extensions some of the schools still are overcrowded already and various proposals for obtaining temporary accommodation were brought forward for consideration. At South Hill it was decided to ask the council for the use of the old municipal hall as soon as the municipal staff, had vacated it and meanwhile two sessions a day as at present are to be continued. The matter of night schools was considered and a special meeting to complete details was fixed for Friday evening, 8th inst. Mr. Staples was appointed janitor of the newly erected schools on Victoria Road. The local ratepayers of Cedar Cottage and D. L. 301 are still endeavoring to persuade the B. C. E. Ry. to supply a through service to Cordova street, similar to that long enjoyed on the Fraser avenue route.
