Lansing says Japan\nwas ignorant of the plot. This\nassertion is supported by the\nJapanese ambassador.\nAccumulating evidence indicates that Dr. Paul Ritter, Swiss\nminister here, not only took over\nBernstoff's diplomatic work, but\nhas also undertaken certain German propaganda work, which\nmay force a show-down between\nhimself and the state department.\nComing Events\nMarch 6\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdGeneral Meeting of Canadian Patriotic Fund, Courtroom, 8 p.m.\nMarch  17\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdW.

While there is a\ncertain amount of agitation for\nremoval in some sections of the\ndistrict, there appears to be no\ngood ground for such action, except the fact that other places\nwould like to have the offices. If\nthe matter is decided on its merits\nand in accordance with the wishes of a majority of the people,\nthe offices will remain here.\nFor  Prisoners of War\nIn acknowledging the receipt\nof contributions collected by Assessor Welch and the Union Bank,\nthe honorary treasurer of the\nPrisoners of War Bread Fund\nsays: \"Yesterday I received a\ncable from Berne stating that our\nlist contained 1,084 names, which\nat $2 for four weeks' supply\nmeans that we cannot sit still,\nbut that every effort must be\nmade to keep this list up.\"\nWhen it is remembered that\nthis fund is required to supply\nenough bread to keep our prisoners of war in Germany alive, its\nimportance will be recognized.\nContributions will be gladly received at the government office\nor the Union Bank.\nBrickenden-Keynton\nA marriage of unusual interest\nto residents of Hazelton district\nwas celebrated on Tuesday evening, when Edward J.

It\nis inevitable that we have got to cut down imports from France\nand tc that extent there is no doubt at all there will be a certain\namount of suffering in that poor, devoted country. And then\nsomebody may say: 'There are the overseas dominions. Are you\ngoing to deprive British Columbia of a chance of sending her\nsupplies? She has been very loyal, very patriotic' So she has.\nNo part of the Empire has shown greater patriotism. The same\napplies to the other colonies. If all this program is carried out, if\nall those who can help us with producing do help; if all those who\nare called on to suffer restriction and limitation will suffer without\ncomplaint, then honestly I can say we can face the future, that the\nenemy can do the worst\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdand that is what we have to be prepared\nfor. If we are not, if it were conceivable that the nation were not\nprepared to do, to endure all these things, then I say with all\nsolemnity I do not know a body of honorable men who would undertake for one hour to be responsible for this terrible war. It is\nessential.\n\"There are millions of gallant young men in France,in Saloniki,\nin Egypt, in Mesopotamia, facing torture, death, terror. They are\nthe flower of our race. Unless the nation is prepared to take its\nshare of the sacrifices, those will be in vain. And I say it will be a\ncrime, a black crime, for any government to ask them to risk their\nlives in the coming conflict if they know that the nation behind\nthem were faint-hearted or selfish. Their sacrifices would be\nthrown away.    We have not the right to ask it.\"\nBritish Columbia will suffer to a certain extent by the reduction\nin British imports of salmon and the prohibition of fruit and other\ncommodities, but the loyalty of the people of the province will\nbear the strain.\nPension Matters\nThe Dominion government has\nappointed a Board of Pension\nCommissioners for Canada, with\ni offices in Ottawa. As this board\nwishes to cause as little delay as\npossible in dealing with communications with regard to pensions,  it wishes   the   public   to\nI correspond   directly   with   the\nj Board of Pension Commissioners,\nj Ottawa.\nA great deal of delay may be\ncaused by communications being\nsent through other departments\nof the government.\nThe Patriotic Fund Association\nand the Military Hospitals Commission have kindly consented to\ngive information and assistance\nto those wishing to write direct\nto the Board of Pension Commissioners. These societies have\noffices in certain localities in\nCanada.\nIn addition,in order to facilitate\nthe granting of pensions, the\nboard is opening branch pension\noffices in Vancouver, Calgary,\nEdmonton, Regina, Winnipeg,\nLondon, Hamilton. Barrie, Ottawa,\nToronto, Kingston, Montreal, St.\nJohn, Quebec and Halifax. All\ninformation with regard to pensions may be obtained from these\noffices.\nWOULD LIKE TO\nHAVE OFFICES\nThe Interior News, published\nat Smithers, says:\n' 'G. C. Gazeley paid a short visit\nto Hazelton the first of the week.\nBusiness in the old town seemed\nas flourishing as ever, he says.\nMiners, prospectors, and others\nwere about in good numbers,\nsome going and some coming,\njust as it always has been since\nthe town was first discovered by\nthe Hudson's Bay Company years\nand years ago. Among those |\nleaving there last Monday were!\nseveral parties of placer miners\nbound for the Ingineca country,\nwith dog teams and toboggans\nloaded with outfits and supplies\npurchased in the local stores.\nSome people say that once the\ngovernment offices are taken\naway old Hazelton must die; but\nsuch people don't know what\nthey are talking about. A natural\ntown, manned as Hazelton is by\nwide - awake citizens can't be\nkilled, no matter what is done to\nit. It is only the artificial or\nvisionary town that is perishable;\nand a number of such that were\nplanned to displace Hazelton are\nnow but memories\ufffd\ufffd\ufffdrather painful\nmemories to the numerous victims\nwho were fleeced by the lot-\npeddling promoters,\"\nWe thank Brother Coyle for\nthese kind words; but we must\ntake issue with him on the question of removing the government\noffices, which he seems to imply\nis a foregone conclusion. In all\nkindness we would suggest that\nany who are counting on the immediate removal of the offices\nfrom this place should prepare to\nmeet with disappointment. It\nmay be that in time to come the\ndevelopment of Omineca district\nwill take such a direction that\nthe administrative headquarters\ncan be more conveniently located;\nbut that time is not yet in sight.\nWhat  Telkwa  Thinks\nThe residents of the town of\nTelkwa and the surrounding\ncountry held a meeting recently\nto discuss the question that has\nbeen made such a burning one in\nthe interior, namely, the place for\nthe government buildings, says\nthe Prince Rupert Journal. Every\nplace in the Bulkley Valley is\ndesirous of having the buildings\nplaced in that particular locality.\nBut while Telkwa holds a somewhat similar view, it is ready to\nforego the right to the plum if\nthe buildings are left where they\nare at Hazelton and the money\nspent in development work in the\ndistrict.\nThis was the view advocated by\nRaleigh Trimble and agreed to by\nthe rest of those present. The\nground taken wa? thatTelkwa.on\naccount of the fact that it was the\nnatural center for the largest part\nof the district, should have the\nbuildings if they were to be\nplaced according to the idea of\nbeing of most service. The roads\nradiated from Telkwa in all directions to the most prosperous\ncommunities and to the richest\nmining camps.\nAt the same time they were\nagreed that if the government\nsaw fit to allow the buildings to\nremain where they were and\nwould expend the money that\nwould be involved in the removal\nthat it would be a better policy\nas far as the district was concerned. If the change is to be\nmade, however, the residents of\nTelkwa wish to be heard in the\nmatter and are prepared to put\nup a strong plea for consideration.\nTokio: Carranza emissaries are\nbusy in Japan.

The British line\nsouth and southeast of Serre, |\nnorth of the Ancre, has been\npushed forward on a front of\nover a mile and a half.\nWashington : Seven Dutch\nships were sunk on Saturday by\nGerman submarines, strengthening the conviction that the Huns\nentirely disregard the rights of\nneutrals. A Dutch paper says\nthe outrage is the greatest humiliation ever endured by Holland. It is believed the crews of\nthe seven vessels were saved.\nment that has taken place in the\nwar since the autumn of the first\nyear. The German retirement\nafter the battle of the Marne was\nforced upon them by actual defeat, while this strategical retreat\nreveals a new phase in the weakness of their defensive conditions.\nIt has noticome to our generals as\na surprise. After the battle of\nthe Boom ravine there were several signs that the enemy contemplated withdrawing from the two\nMiraumonts, and our recent capture of the Bailleseourt farm\nground, north of the Ancre,\nseriously menaced Serre.\nLondon: Between eleven and\nmidnight on Sunday British destroyers met a German  destroyer\nRio Janeiro:    Armed Germans | squadron in a heavy engagement\nhave crossed the frontier of Bra\nzil, proceeding in the direction of\nSanta Catarina. They are believed to be sailors who have been\ninterned in Argentine.\nParis: There was the usual\ncannonading along the entire\nFrench front. There was especial\nactivity on the part of the artillery on the Belgian front.\nCoal here is $80 a ton. Several\ndealers are under arrest for\ncharging extortionate prices.\nPetrograd: Russia is now employing a huge army of prisoners.\nThere is a sentiment that the\npolitical reorganization of Poland\nis a matter for Russia alone, and\nthat international guarantees are\nrequired only as far as such guarantees provide for the addition\nof Austrian and German Poland\nto Russian Poland.\nBerlin: Brand Whitlock, American minister to Belgium, will\nremain in Brussels in a personal\nand quasi-diplomatic capacity.\nThe minister of finance has\nannounced a new and heavy tax\non bachelors.\nWashington: A resolution authorizing the president to use the\narmed forces of the U. S. to protect the lives and property of\nAmericans was introduced by\nSenator Fall, Republican.\nThe army may be increased by\nthe enlistment of half a million\nin the North Ssa.Sir Edward Carson announced in the commons.\nAfter the engagement our ships\nremained undamaged. The extent of damage to the enemy is\nunknown.\nAnother force of enemy destroyers shelled Broadstairs and\nMargate, but tied before our destroyers arrived on the scene. A\nwoman and child were killed at\nMargate.\nLondon: The Cunard liner\nLaconia, 18,099 tons, was sunk by\na German submarine off the Irish\ncoast on Sunday evening. The\nvessel, which was from New York\nto England, was torpedoed without warning. Survivors numbering 278 are expected lo arrive at\nQueenstown today. Six Americans were aboard. Some passengers are missing and one is dead.\nAmsterdam: The Germans have\na covetous eye on Dutch food supplies and are said to he planning\nto repeat the looting of Belgium by\nforcing Holland into war. Hun\nforces are massing on the border\nof Holland, while the safe-conduct\nassured Dutch ships by Berlin has\nbeen treacherously betrayed.\nLondon: The British have captured Kut-el-Amara. The Turkish troops are in full retreat.\nWashington: Armed neutrality\nis Wilson's next move against\nGermany.   The president has as*\npossibilities to the British forces.\nA hostile attack on the Somme\nwas repulsed.\nLondon: Official figures concerning the Laconia sinking give\nthe total number of passengers\nand crew as 294, of whom 267\nwere landed at Queenstown and\n14 at Bantry. Five were drowned and eight died of exposure at\nsea.   Six are in hospitals.\nTwo American women were\namong the thirteen dead.\nLondon papers construe the\nsinking oi the Lucania as an\n\"overt act\" against the States.\nQueenstown: There were remarkable scenes when the women\nfrom the Laconia arrived on a\npatrol boat. The crowd chanted\nthe naval anthem in defiant tones.\nWireless Operators Donnesand\nTaylor were the heroes of the\ndisaster. They continued sending\ncalls until a British warship answered, when they jumped over-\nj board, the last to leave the sink-\ni ing vessel. Officers and crew\nare praised by all passengers.\nWashington: The sinking of\nthe Laconia, according to the\nhighest official interpretation,is a\n\"clear-cut case\". No investigation is considered necessary. This\nbecame known as the official attitude after a conference between\nWilson and Lansing. Many in\nauthority believe Germany has\ncommitted the awaited \"overt\nact\", and declare for quid; and\npositive action.\nNo decision has been reached\nin congress,the senate wrangling\nover the president's request for\nauthority. The main light is\nagainst giving him power to arm\nAmerican ships carrying munitions. The $500,000,000 navy\nbill, is threatened with defeat\nthrough the one-man fllli buster\nof Senator LaFollette.\nmen, under the resolution, which ed congress for authority to lalu\nwould also give merchant captains\nthe right to protect their vessels\nagainst submarines and resist\nsearch by the central powers.\nAmsterdam: German deserters\nare (locking into Holland. They\nhave formed a union to look after\ntheir interests. Many stories are\ntold of their methods of escape.\ne\n^\nTUESDAY, F\ufffd\ufffdB. 27\n\\\nLondon: The steady pressure\nexercised by the British in the\nSomme region is having its effect.\nThe enemy is steadily withdrawing his troops from many positions between Hebuterne and the\nground southwest of Bapaume.\nOur patrols are pushing forward\ninto the abandoned territory, and\nhave penetrated in some places\nfor nearly three miles beyond outlines. They are already northwest of Serre and southwest of\nIrles, above Miraumont, Petit\nMiraumont and  Pys,  which are\nmeasures to deal with the submarine aggressions, declaring that\nAmerican rights on the high seas\nwill be protected. The final break\nmay occur at any moment.\nWilson's request for authority\nto act against Germany may be\nopposed by the Republicans,\nSenator Thompson, of Michigan,\nsays: \"It is a monstrous propo-\nposition. No dictator could ask\nfor more authority.\"\nMadrid: Ambassador Gerard\nasks for a convoy. He docs not\nfeel safe in the event of war\nbetween the (J. S. and Germain.\nfr\nTHURSDAY, MARCH 1\nV\nWEDNES., FEB. 28\n^\\\nLondon: The British advance\nalong the Ancre has attained a\ndepth of two miles, and extends\nalong a front of about eleven\naccording to the official report.\nBapaume, which it was declared\nwould fall only \"after paying the\ngreatest price ever exacted from\nnow in our hands, without battle. ja victorious army,\" is now direct-\nWe gained a number of German ]y threatened as a result of the\nstrongholds which we expected to | greatest German retirement since\nwin only by heavy fighting, and, stationary warfare began more\nthe enemy yielded to the ceaseless than two years ago> The ne wly-\npressure of our men and guns by I occupied  ground opens up many\nLondon : Haigs' troops are\nclosing in on Bapaume. They\nare less than two miles distant\ntoday. The German retreat has\napparently slowed considerably,\naud strong resistance is being\nencountered in the forward sweep\nof the British troops. In front\nthe ground is a sea of mud from\nthe thaws of recent weeks, and\nstretching across thi\ufffd\ufffd ocean of\nslime are crisscrossed miles upon\nmiles of barbed wire. Apparently the Germans counted on the\nslippery footing and barbed wire\nobstacles to hamper the British\nadvance1. Our patrols,unceasingly \"feeling out\" the ground in\nadvance, have not yet found indications of the line selected by\nthe Germans for their next stand.\nBritish airmen dropped bombs\non Sunday on the big iron works\nat Brebach, Germany. One hostile plane was brought down.\nBriiish forces are giving the\nretreating Turks beyond Kut-el-\nAmara no chance to reform their\ncolumns. The pursuit continues\nand the retreating enemy is being\nengaged on three rides. The enemy was forced to abandon many\nstores. Guns were thrown into\nthe Tigris, including howitzers.\nThe captured British gunboat\nwas retaken.\nParis: The double event of the\nBritish armies' victories and progress at Kut-el-Aniaraandon the\nAncre have been acclaimed here,\nand are being watched closely.\nGratifying recognition of the\nBritish achievements are accorded\nby the whole French press.     At\nthe same time, in the absence of\ndetails, military experts doubt the\nmilitary importance of the German retreat, which may be a tactical or strategical plan. It is\nfrankly recognized that the new\ndeparture in trench warfare is\nmainly the result of the tremendous pressure of the British army, especially the artillery.\nWashington: The U.S. appears\ncloser to war; but despite this\ndanger, the filibuster in the senate\nstill threatens the bill giving the\npresident authority. It is thought,\nhowever, that congress will comply.\nGermany still holds the Yarrow-\ndale prlsoners.after weeks of misinformation. A break with Austria is imminent. The clear cut\novert act of the Laconia sinking\nmakes the situation extremely\ncritical.\nLeading American papers declare that Wilson is compelled to\nmake his words good and is in\nhonor bound to seek a declaration\nof war from congress.\nf     FRIDAY, MARCH 2     1\nLondon: Slowly and steadily\nthe German retirement continues\nnorth of the Ancre. There is as\nyet no indication of any recoil\nmovement. Explosion after explosion occurs in the wonderfully\nfortified town of Bapaume.and it\nis believed the Germans are blowing up their own handiwork preparatory to evacuating the place.\nBritish troops are now within a\nmile of Bapaume.\nGommecourt, the tip of the\nsalient in the German line north\nof the Ancre, has fallen into the\nhands of the British.\nOn the Mesopotamian front\nBritish cavalry and gunboats continue the pursuit of the beaten\nTurkish troops who are in retreat\nfrom Kut-el-Amara. Large quantities of munitions and material\nhave been captured by our troops.\nLondon: The British navy sank\nand captured a vastly greater\nnumber of German submarines\nduring February than in any\nmonth preceding the new undersea campaign. Several supply\nstations have been destroyed.\nPetrograd: A counter-atiack\nby Russian forces partly drove\nback an enemy assault on the\nJacobeni-Kimpolung road.\nBordeaux: Following the arrival of the American freighter\nOrleans, the Rochester arrived at\nthe mouth of the Gironde safely.\nNew York: The American\npress raps congress hard for\nblocking the president's war\nplans.\nThe U-boat menace is regarded\nas a rank failure. The damage\ndone during February was insufficient to warrant German boasts.\nArmed vessels have been practically immune, and the number of\nsinkings has fallen off materially\nsince the British anti-sub. campaign became effective.\n|   DENTISTRY   1\nDR.
