Forin yesterday found\nagainst W. G. Smith, of Slocan City.\nIn his appeal from A conviction by\nThomas McNelsh, . justice of the\npeace, the appeal being based on the\nclaim that a large quantity of liquor ho had had in his house, and\nthat had disappeared, had been for\nhis own personal use. Thc magistrate on Nov. 1 flnfd1 the\" accused\n$300 and costs.\nThc decision is regarded of such\ninterest from a legal' point of view\nthat E. P. Dawson, of Donaghy,\nBrown & Dawson, who represented\nthe crown, was instructed by the attorney-general, Hon. J. W. DeB.\nFarris, to forward itby wire. James\nO'Shea, of O'Shea & Farris, represented the appellant.   .\nIn    handing    down    his    decision,\nJudge Forin  reviewed  the  case\nfollows: *\n\"Thc appellant is a laborer. He\nrented a small houBe in West Slocan\nabout two months before the hearing by the convicting magistrate.\nDuring this time he had worked six\ndays at a saw mill, and had Im\nported ?3,000 worth of liquor, 93\ncases in all. The liquor, except\nseven cases, was storod in a room\nin his house, and- he slates he imported It for his own use, and got\ntho money from hlH wife.\n'On tho IGth of October the accused and his wlfo absented them-\nselvos from tho house -.tintU nest\nday, the 16th, during whi\"*h time,\nhe states, 54 cases had been stolon\nfrom his house. This theft was not\nreported to :tJio ^police, and some\ngays later; ,on the? 27th of October,\nWhen Provincial Constable Gunn\nsearched the house and inquired\nwhat had been done with the liquor,\nthe accused replied: 'That is my\nbusiness.'\n\"The wife in her evidence states\nthat, she does not know how long\nher husband had worked at the saw\nmill, and further, it appears that\nshe has been convicted of criminal\noffences before.\n\"I have had pecasion in a number\nof appeals under thc Prohibition act\nto consider the tests set out in the\ncase of Rex vs Covert < 1917 > 1., W.\nW. R. 919, and do not hesitate in\nfinding that tho appellant's attempt to como within the provision\nwhich permits the keeping of liquor\nfor the owner's use fails. The provision has been very liberally\nterpreted In favor of owners, but\ntho circumstances in this case lead\nme' to quote 'In part the decision\nin Rex vs McKinley (1917) 2, W, K.\nR-, 1071; 'Tho. plea for his own\nuso will not bo sufficient if tho circumstances justify- the magistrate's\ndecision.'        . \u25a0 -\n\"Thp' appeal is dismissed with\ncosts, which  I  fix at  $G0.''\nChristmas examinations were held\nat the Hume school the past week,\nwith, highly satisfactory results from\nthe point of view of progress in\nclass work-\nThe following is a Up' of the pupils from the various 'livlsions who\nscorod 55 nor cent .or rver in the exam Inntions:\nDivision I., Senior IV., or entrance\u2014Lewis Nelson, Fithel Smith,\nMav Bradford,.

Perhaps\nin no sphere does this apply\nmore forcibly, as many a man\nhas discovered to his sorrow,\nthan in the, marketing of bonds.\nThis is the wrong time to\nsell Victory Bonds. Those who\nare placing bonds bearing thc\nstamp of the government of\nCanada, are following a misguided impulse. If they are not\ngood, nothing in the Dominion\nof Canada is good. They are\nthe Dominion of Canada, backed at maturity by every dollar\nrepresented by the resources\nlying from coast to coast.\nOn this guarantee they are\nredeemable at maturity for one\nhundred cents on the dollar?* In\nthe meantime they are better\nthan money in the savings bank,\nfor they double its interest.\nLet not the fact that the price\nis down stampede holders of\ngovernment bonds into a hasty\ndecision to sell. The present\nsituation is because the whole\nsecurity market is depressed.\nOther securities are likely to\ncome back, but whether they do\nor. not, government securities\nmust return to normal.

Not that\nthe colored races have anything\nspecial of which to complain; but\nthe same parochial ppirit which\nwould restrict the niuuhers of the\ncountry's white population also aims\nat the keeping the colored man in\nthe place he traditionally .occupies\nunder the Transval anrt Free State\nRepublics.\u2014Bulluwayo    Chronicle-\nTlie Foollslincss of Undor-ProdHCtion.\nWhile there may have been Isolat\ned cases of overproduction, on the\nwhole world has always suffered\nfrom underconsumption. \u25a0 \u2022 And\nsince our whole social order of modern times is based upon cooperation,\nreciprocity and the general exchange\nof services and commodities, any\nplan which proposes to benefit only\na given group of workers and traders\nis under indictment for militating\nagainst the welfare of the communl-\ntly as a whole.

JOHNS, NM., Dec. 23. (American Press).\u2014'Several thousand flsh-\neremn have left Newfoundland owing to the comparative failure .of\ntho colony's fisheries this year and\nthe low price received for the product. They have gono. chiefly to\nCanada and the United States.\nThe total catch of herring in, the\nseason which ended im the middle 'of\nlast winter was only about half -ihe\naverage of pfevlous years and, because of renewed competition with\nScotch, Dutch and other foreign\nmarkets duo to the return of peace\nconditions, the value was gTeatly'reduced- The early spring fishery for\nood off the South coast and the seal\nfishery off the East coast were failures. .    .\u201e\nThe- main codj. fishery around th$\ncoast of the island and Labrador resulted in an estimated catch of lA\n700,00,0 for Iaat year. The pric6\ndropped from $12 to $lo a quintal\nfor -Newfoundland fish and from J10\nto $8 for Labrador cod. The decline\nfn prices of cod oil, lobsters, salmon and other ^subsidiary products\nhas been so great that the fishermen will not receive more than half'\nthe amount which they obtained iaat\nyear.\nAnother factor tending to emigration is the curtailment in the iron\nmines, where forces of 3,000 have\nbeen reduced by one-half. Although\nthe pulp and paper mills are making >an exceptionally large -cut of\nwood, they cannot absorb all the\nmen seeking work from them this\nwinter.\nRestore Order Among\nPearl   Fishermen   in\nWestern Australia\nMELBOURNE, Dec. 23.-~The trouble between the Japanese and Malay\npearl fishermen of Brome has ended\nand order has* been restored.

Best People\nof Country Indorse it\nAlthough placed on sale Bome-\nthng over five years ago, the demand\nfor ,the celebrated medicine, Tanlac.\nhas increased at a most phenomenal\nrate and announcements has just\nbeen made by the manufacturers\nthat the total sales will reach approximately 20,000,000 bottles by the\nend of the present year.\nTo say that Tanlac now hus the\nlargest sale of any medicine of its\nkind in the world does not begin to\ntell the* story, for no other preparation has ever even approached the\nmarvellous record that has been\nmade by Tanlac, and it is now conservatively * estimated that the sales\nby the end of the coming year will\nreach the astonishing total of 30,-\n000,000 bottles,    *\nTanlac sales lust year amounted\nto 4,079,948 bottles, establishing a\nnevr world record for the sale of\nproprietary medicines up to that\ntime. This record now pales into\nInsignificance, however, us orders\nreceived during tho first nine months\nof the present year reached a total\nof 6,20,fj,OOO bottles, showing an increase  of  almost  100  per cent  over\nUNEMPLOYMENT\nHAS ATTENTION\nthe corresponding period of last\nyear. '   '\nTho enormous and ever-increa*J-\ning popularity of Tanlac Is the one\ngreat out-standing proof of Its merit.\nThe greatest drug firms of the country have voluntarily come forward\nand stated ln plain, cold figures the\nrecord breaking sales everywhere.\nNo medicine of less than superlative\nQuality eould possibly attain such a\nhuge sales record nor gain, as.has\nTanlac, the unqualified endorsement\nof thousands of well-known men and\nwomen from all parts of tho country who stand for tho best In-their\ncommunities.\nThe greatest teHt of any medicine\nis the \"repeat\" sales it: enjoys. Tan-\nlac's phenomenal record has been\npossible because of the fact that the\nmen and women who buy one bottle\nInvariably return for the socond and\nrecommend it to others because it\nhas helped them. Tanlac has been\non the market now a little, over five\nyears. It has stood the acid test\nof time. ' It is known and honored\nin every city, town, village and hamlet on the American continent from\nKey West, Florida, to the northern\nwilds of Canada, where even the Indians and fur traders have learned\nof Us wonderful powers as a medicine. -\nTanlac is composed of tho most\nbeneficial roots and herbs known to\nthe scientific world. The formula\nconforms will all National and State\nPure Food and Health laws of both\nthe United States and Canada. Although Teniae's claims for superiority are abundantly supported by\nleading authorities. It is tho people\nthemselves who have made Tanlac\nwhat It Is.\nMillions upon millions of the best\npeople of the country have used it\nand have told millions of others\nwhat it has done for them. That is\nwhy Tanlac has become tho real\nsensation of the drug trade all over\nAmerica.\nSanta Claus of the Wild and Woolly West\nmm\n(Continued  from   Page   One)\npnen could satisfy the superintendent\nof Canadian immigration iu London\nthat they were of suitable calibre to\nmeet conditions in Canada, their entry was in no way hampered.

R. Decary, chairman of the administrative committee, stated that\ntho number of unemployed in Montreal this season was treble the\nnumber in previous winters. There\nare now nearly 25.000 men looking\nfor work,  stated Mr. Decary.\nJ. L, Foster, president of tne>\ntrades and labor council, said the\nsituation had been made a,cute be-\ncauso the world did not heed organized labor's warnings.. He also\ncomplained that at the meeting were\nU7ien, probably connected with companies, who were responsible for\nbringing only recently a large number of workers from Great Britain\non tho promise of work They hud\neither to make it or put them in\nsomebody's else's place. A committee representing those present\nwas appointed to take steps to try\nand alleviate conditions.

The unemployment situation\ncontinues bad, i but there is every\nh&pe that the' next week or two\nwill see the worst of it over. At a\nspecial meeting of.the cabinet coun-\nclul held this afternoon, there was\na long discussion of the unemployment problem and details were considered of the proposed plan of assistance, in cooperation with provincial and municipal authorities.\nThe government, it is\" understood,\nhas already been notified by a large\nnumber of local authorities of their\ndesire for federal cooperation. Two\nprovincial governments, Ontario and\nBritish Columbia, have taken a\n'imilar'Btep.   .\nWhat the cost, of the scheme to\nthe federal treasury is likely to be,\nthere is as yet no reliable data\navailable, but expectation Is \u25a0 expressed In official circles that the\ncost wjll not be large. In its\nstatement of policy iBsued 10 days\nor so ago, the government laid down\nthe principle that the first step in\ndealing with unemployment, should\nbe the provision of work rather than\nof relief, that the primary obligation for provision of relief rested\nwith   the   local   authorities.\nShould emergency relief become\nnecessary, however, the Dominion\ngovernment was willing to meet one-\n'third of the cost, provided that the\n'provincial and municipality authorities met the 'Other two-thirds. Such\na policy\u2014in its Insistence on the\nprovision of work as a first stop\u2014\nwill, it is argued, very considerably\nreduce the dharge which might\notherwise be occasioned by the federal treasurer.\u2022\u25a0\u25a0 It Is expected that\nthere will shortly he a further announcement by the Dominion government in regard to the unemployment situation.\nSASKATOON, Dec. 23\u2014-At a\ntneeting of unemployed returned\nmen called here by the G. \"W- V.
