Will Spend Thb Week la tne Booadi y\nand Not la Kaslo and\nSlocan\nJ. A .Macdonald, the liberal leader,\n.arrived In the city at 1:80 a. in. yesterday from his tour at the Island anl\nthe lower mainland.\nMr. Macdonald Is in splendid health\n\u25a0aud full of confidence of the outcome\n\u2022of the polling on February 2nd. That\nvictory for the liberal cause Is in the\nair was unmistakably manifest tn the\n\u25a0quiet assurance that characterised the\nliberal leader's review of the situation.\nMr. Macdonald has been agreeably\nsurprised at the enthusiasm that he has\nmet with thoughout hi stour. In elft'ry\n\u2022constituency liberals are working with\n\u25a0the utmost harmony and with vigor\n\"that haa never before characterised a\n-political campaign in this province.\nMr. Macdonald specially referred to\nthe magnificent fight being put up by\nthe liberals tn Vancouver, Victoria and\nKamloops. In Vancouver everything\nindicates a splendid liberal victory.\nThree seats will undoubtedly be captured from the McBrlde government and\nlocal workers claim that there will be\na clean .sweep. The conservatives acknowledge that they are not well organized and that there is lack of enthusiasm in their ranks, but confess to believe that they can re-elect finance minister Tatlow and MacGowan. Bows-r\nts deemed to be out of the race and\nbut little hope Is entertained of again\n\u25a0ending Jimmy Garden back to Victorh.\nIn Victoria the liberals are united,\nenthusiastic, and confident of reelecting the entire ticket. The outlook on\nthe island Is exceptionally favorable-\nSuch seats as Comox and Esquimau\nare freely conceded to the.liberals, making a gain of two where the liberals already hold seven out of twelve, the\nMoBrlde government only having three,\nthe other two being held by socialists.\nMr. Macdonald heartily eulogised tho\nsplendid work done by W. W. B. Mcinnes on the island. Hla return to provincial politics had greatly strengthened the liberal cause on the Island, where\nhe was best known, and in Vancouver\nhis candidature has given a zest to the\ncampaign that Is the best augury of\nBUCCS88.\nIn the dty of New Westminster, Howay is making a winning fight. Good\nold John Oliver has an easy thing of It\nIn Delta and Is now out stumping in\nthe Okanagan, Yale and Lillooet districts.\nCharlsy Munro is perfectly safe In\nChllllwack and Weart will win In Richmond, -where (Carter-Cotton 1b being\ndriven from pillar to post by the visor and effectiveness of Mr. Weart's canvass and platform addresses.\nOne ot the most Interesting contests\nin the whole campaign Is htat being\nwaged In Dewdney by Bob Jardlne\n.against premier McBride. Mr. Macdon-\n.ald held a meeting at Mission In Jar-\ntdlne's Interests and he was struck by\ntthe enthusiasm for the liberal cause dls-\n' played by the vast majority present.\n.Dewdney cannot by any means be con-\nconsidered safe for the premier.\nMacdonald was unable to speak In\nYale, Lillooet and   Cariboo   districts,\nhut his reports from these ridings are\nentirely satisfactory.   Ei-attorney-gen-\neral Wilson is having a bad time of\n' It in Cariboo.   The electors there aro\nnot so Ignorant of public affairs as he\nhad anticipated. They all want to know\n| why he resigned and as he will not gki\nI them his confidence, they point blank\n[decline to give him theirs.\nIt was In Kamloops that Mr. Macdonald encountered the moBt emphatic evidences of liberal determination to sweep\nthe McBrlde government out of office.\nAttorney-general Fulton Is a beaten\nman now. He has called tn help and\nA. 8. Goodeve, the rejected of Rossland,\nIs hurrying to his assistance. John D.\nSwanson, the liberal candidate, has developed unexpected strength as a canvasser and as a public speaker. He has\nat his back an enthusiastic campaign\ncommittee, made up of all the old time\nliberal workers and a large number of\nbusiness men who heretofore have supported the McBrlde government candidate.   Kamloops will In all likelihood\nMr. Macdonald held several meetings\nI in the Okanagan district in behalf of\nj Dr. K. C. McDonald and the best evi-\n> dence of the critical state of affairs there\n[ tor the McBrlde government candidate,\nli Price Ellison, Is the fact that premier\nMcBride has cancelled other dates to\nhold three meetinga in the riding. Price\nEllison may save his seat, but the prospects are anything but hopeful for him\nJust now.\nAt Revelstoks on Saturday evening\nMr. Macdonald addressed what waa said\nto be the largest and most enthusiastic\npolitical meeting ever held In that city.\nCaley's candidature appears to be very\npopular and certainly the reception :.\"e\nI liberal speakers received at the -nesting\nwould Justify the Inference thnt Tom\nTaylor cannot again carry the sear\nDATED SALMON CANS\nWholesale Grocers Want Pure Food Bill\nAmended I\n(Bpeolal to The Dally Nsws)\nVancouver Jan. a-rhe wholesale grocers\nexchange has forwarded a pressing petition to Ottawa urging that th. clause of.\nthe pure food bill requiring that tho date,\nof the salmon pack be stamped on th\",\ncans be eliminated.

Ths prevailing\nsoft weather packed the snow, down, on the\nrails making the Job of opening up the.\nline a rather difficult one. It Is expttted\nthat during today the whole line will b.\nin running ordor from end to end...\nMr, Macdonald returned to Rowland\nyesterday morning. He will add.tsa a\nmeeting ot his supporters this evening\nand on Wednesday evening will speak\nat Trail. Thursday and Friday Mr.\nMacdonald will spend in the Boundary\ndistrict, addressing meetings at Phoenix and Greenwood on Thursday evening and at Grand Forks on Friday evening. The last week ot the campaign\nwill find htm In the Slocan and Kaslo\nridings.\nMr. Macdonald Is not the man to claim\nover-much ,but his decided assurance\not a sweeping victory was so marked\nthat it is quite certain he has seen\nand heard sufficient during his tour to\nabsolutely satisfy Mm that the liberal\ncause will be successful on February\n2nd next.\nMr. Macdonald expressed the warmest\nappreciation, of the splendid work being\ndone in this campaign by Mcinnes, ex-\nJudge Henderson, Jobs Oliver, T. S.\nBaxter, J. W. Weart and others; he\nwas also greatly gratified at the enthusiasm he found everywhere among the\ncampaign committees. He thought his\nown campaign committee over In Rossland was about the best on earth, but\nhe had seen committees In other districts that would fairly rank up with\nhis own.\nMr. Macdonald asked particularly after the prospects ot Dr. Hall, In Nelson,\nJohn Keen, in Kaslo, and J. Fred Hume,\nIn Ymlr. He Is most anxious to have\nthese men with him at Victoria. He\nrealises tljafthe great Interests ot the\nKootenaysTtsVe never been adequately\nrecognised add he feela confident that\nwlh strong support from these ridings\ncoupled with the weight of Dr. King, of\nCranbrook, .he will be able to accomplish much that has been too long neglected. '\nMr. Macdonald ts an ardent BrltUh\nColumbian. He realizes as few men in\npublic life do the vast potentialities if\nthis provh-e and he knows that, given\nthe opportunity, he can do a vc.y gr.\u2022>.*.\ndeal to place British Columb!.. on an\nInfinitely more prosperous and stub's\nbasis than It is today, or ever has brr.n.\nHe has no sympathy with. th3se bluo-\nruln talkers who suggest the possibility\nof British Columbia ever being lo financial distress and unhesitatingly asse- \u25a0\u00ab\nthat under wise, progressive administration, Its resources can he d*)v*.t3,v\ned as never before and along llnis that\nwill Inure to the benefit of all the |ieo-\nple.\nLiberal leader Macdonald has (he\nair of a victor. He knows the tide is\nrunning with him and he realizes that\nshortly after February 2nd he will be\ncalled upon to form a government.\nORE TCJUOAN WILD\nACCIDENT ON GREAT NORTHERN AT\nPHOENIX\nAIR BRAKES FAILED TO WORK AND\nGREW .TUMPED\n(Special to The Dally News)\nPhoenix, Jan. 21\u2014Very early Saturday\nmorning the Great Northern had a wreck\nhere, which fortunately did not result In\nany casualties. A train of 11 60-ton loaded\noro dumps had Just left the Oranby ore\nbins and started down the .switch-hack,\nwhen the air brakes failed to work and\nthe train began to run wild. The train\ncrew, finding that they could not control\nIt picked out good spots in the snow and\nJumped to safety. The runaway continued about a mile to the end of tbe swlt-ch-\n\u25a0back, and came to a standstill, when the\nengine began to climb a tree, and stopped\nIn a position of about 46 degrees, the ore\ncars being left on the raits behind It. No\none was injured and assistant superintendent Smith of the road, with a gang of\nmen succeeded In putting the engine on\nthe rails again. The engine, which was\none of the heavy seven hundred class, used\nfor ore traffic, was not badly injured and\nafter a little repairing will be In service '\nagain.\nThe same night the C.P.R. had a small'\nwreck at the Rawhide ore bins, where a\ncouple of ore dumps were run off the rails\nbut were soon put on again.\nNow that soft weather Is prevailing,'\nafter the extreme. cold spell, It Is not expected that the railways will have as\nmuch trouble In handling freight as they\nhave fon some weeks past. The present\nweather will also assist the water problem\nto some extent, this being, In winter time,\na difficult problem for the C.P.R. to handle\nbetween Phoenix and Eholt, most of the\nstreams being froxen -solid at this season\nof the year.\nNINES SCORES WITH NELSON ELECTORS\nHolds Closest Attention of Largest Audience Ever Gathered Here for Two\nHours and Wins an Ovation on Closing His Masterly Address-\nLiberal Victory Assured on February 2nd\nIt was a splendid meeting that.took\nplace In the opera house last night and\nthose who waited so patiently to hear\nW, w. B. Mcinnes were fully repaid.\nHe made a great speech, great not only*,\nor even chiefly, in manner, but great in\nmatter. It waa a powerful indictment\nof the McBrlde government and a forceful refutation of the attacks that have\nbeen made on the liberal party by the\nMcBrlde government apologists on the\nplatform and In the press and by the\nsocialists. For upwards of two hours\nMr. Mcinnes held his audience entranced and In clear, convincing language\nhe brushed away many of the fantasies\npremier McBrlde and his lieutenant, W.\nJ. Bowser, spun here recently with a\nview to diverting attention from the established record of their maladministration and corrupt relations with corporations,\nA considerable portion of Mr. Mcinnes' speech waa devoted to answering\na bitter attack made upon him by J.\nT. Mortimer, recently from St. Vincent,\nMinnesota, who spoke on behalf of socialist candidate Frank Phillips. Mr.\nMcinnes very effectively punctured the\ncharges brought, against him by this\nspell-binder from the other side and\nIn the course of his remarks in this connection he gave a Nelson audience, for\nthe flrst time, a plain, unvarnished\nstatement of socialist leader Haw-\nthornthwaite'B real position In the public life of this province.\nIn order to do anything like justice\n'o the long and interesting speech made\nby Mr. Mcinnes it is Impossible to more\nthan very briefly record the preliminary\nproceedings.\nGeorge P. W\u00abtta presided and called\nupon liberal candidate Hall to flrst address the meetings Mr. Klrkpatrlck\nfollowed, expressing his entire approval\nof the Kalen lalaal. Vernon ft Midway\nand Columbia k Westtem deals.\nJ. T. Mortlmore, who appeared on\nbehalf of Frank Phillips, occupied his\nfull time allowance and devoted it\nchiefly to a bitter attack upon liberalism In general, and upon that stalwart\nrepresentative of liberalism, W. W. B.\nMcinnes, In particular. Mr. Mortlmore\nIs a forcible speaker, but his hatred of\nCanadian liberalism Is so Intense that\ntl blinds him to facts and his tirade\ncontained many statements either utterly false or grossly misleading. He\nmet with a very kindly reception from\nsocialists In the audience and it was\nnoteworthy that he had the good sense\ntn a British audience, to put forward\nsome kind of an excuse for the outrageous attacks that have been made upon\nthe,Union Jack by some of his comrades in this campaign.\nWhen chairman Wells introduced Mr.\nMcinnes the applause that greeted his\nrising testified abundantly to his popularity here as In every other section of\nthe province. But hearty as was his\ngreeting at the commencement of his\nable address and continuous as was the\napplause that greeted every point ne\nscored, it was as nothing to the outburst\nof unmistakably sincere spontaneous\napplause that testified to the effect his\nutterance bad made upon his audience\nwhen he resumed his seat,\nMr, Molnnes voiced bis regret at bav -\ning had to disappoint the audience before him twice, but was glad that they\nhad paid him the compliment of turning out In such numbers to hear him.\n\"I had hoped to listen to something\nin the way of a rub from Mr. .Mortlmore\nbut to my amusement I find that he has\nnothing new. Just the same old rubbish. I can only notice It in passing\nas it refers to my record. I am running\ntn the city where the labor vote Is the\nlargest In B. C. I have run five times\nIn labor constituencies and have won\nevery time. I am not afraid of Hawthornthwalte and would, be glad to\nmeet him at any time. He does not\nwork. Has not worked, except to work\nthe working man on the platform for\nyears. Years ago he worked for a corporation. He haa not worked with his\nhands since.\"\nThe speaker denied the story of an\nattempt to Join the socialist party and\noffered to retire from the campaign if\nany one could prove that he had ever\ntried to Join the socialist party.\nIn reply to an angry socialist Mr.\nMcinnes said: \"Don't get mad my,\nfriend; remember that 'whom the\nGods would destroy they flrst make\nmad.'\"\n\"I can tell my socialist friend,\" said\nMcinnes, \"that right now In the mines\nof Vancouver Island, miners are working\nlonger hours, are working harder and\nlonger than tbey have for a quarter\not a century. Where was that giant\nof socialism who has had the government by the throat for the last three\nyears? Just making a noise. When\nyou hear men making a noise about\nworking men, distrust them. Trust\nthose rather who have by their dally\nlives shown their real feelings toward\nthe working man.. If Dr. Hall has\ntreated from day to day all classes\nIn a manner to show that he respects\nthe man with a smutty face, just as\nmuch aa he doe* a man with a boiled\nshirt, give him your support as a real\nfriend of the working man, rather than\nthese loud talking, frothy protestors.\"\n(Applause.).\nThe Natal Aat sju then turned to.\nThe attitude af MS m C. government\nwas tbat despite cat altitude of the\nimperial government, it was the desire\nof the government at Victoria that thlB\nshould be kept a white man's country.\n''Five times the Natal Act was passed\nand turned down by the government at\nOttawa on account of the imperial government. What was tbe action of this\nconservative government, controlled by\nthese socialists? Did they keep up the\ngood fight? Did they pass again this\nact to keep it paramount before the Ottawa government? No; my friends,\nthey passed it by. They let It go. Now\nwhen we pass it again, as we will, they\ncan say to us, are you In earnest; why\ndid you not keep it up. But we will\nkeep it up Until It goes through by\nforce of the earnestness of our endeavors.\"\n\"Aa to my attitude in the past I -2-\nfer you to the words of my political\nopponent, Mr. John Houston, in a recent\nInterview which appeared in the Spokesman-Review. Mr. Houston there gives\nhis opinion of me as a man to be depended upon.\"\nGoing on with his reply to tbe socialists Mr. Mcinnes touched strongly\non the well known fact tbat the socialist members of the house who backed\nup and helped tbe McBrlde government\nIn the notorious give away, \"potlach\"\nas Mr. Mcinnes expressed It, of the\n800,000 acres of public land to the C.\nP. R. in the Columbia ft Western Act.\nIn tbe matter of labor legislation he\nscored heavily, assuring his bearers of\nhis own Bound attitude and at length\nhe explained the many dangers that attended hasty legislation of this kind.\nHe promised ibat he would always hesitate, and he knew that the liberals\nwould always hesitate, to Introduce any\nlabor legislation except that which they\nknew would be effective and entirely\nfree of any possibility of results that\nwould upset labor conditions.\n\"I should suppose that Mr. Bowser\nthought I was going to run in the city\nof Nelson. He haa produced a tissue of\nfrothy words that can like a bubble\nbe dissipated by a touch of a finger.\nHe has asked why t came back from\nthe Yukon. Well, In the first place,\nI did not come back to please Bowser,\nand I can also understand that a man\nlike Bowser would stand agast at giving up anything. I have not given up\n$12,000 In a country where that sum Is\nonly equal to about 13,500 ,to get on'r\n$800. No, I will get a better salary\nthan that, I will get $4,800 and my pay\nwill begin February 3rd. Surely tbls\nwill appeal to my conservative friends\nIt is not a thing unparalleled that a\nyoung man like myself should, at a\ntime when history Ib in the making, return to the firing line, when sir Charles\nTupper once returned to Canada from\na position of ease and comfort to offer\nhis services to the great conservativj\nparty, the liberals did not howl graft.\nThey honored him as a patriotic though\nmistaken Canadian.\n\"Now ladles and gentlemen they ue\nvery keen to know why I resigned. L*n\nme In turn ask them about the resignation of Robert Green. Why bave the\nelectors never been taken into the\nconfidence of MoBrlde and told the reason of Green's resignation? It Is said\nthat a pressure of private business\ncaused this resignation. Now you\nknow all about this gentleman and you\nknow that any private business he has\ncould be attended to by a school boy in\nhalf an hour per day. No, that wv nor.\nthe reason, the real reason. Thai whs\nof a nature that he dared not rer?al.\nMoBrlde knew tt was of such a natuie\nthat If revealed would hurl him from\nthe saddle.\"\nMr. Mcinnes then passed to th3 res-\nignatlon ot Hon. Charles Wilson, attorney-general, pointing out that he too\ndared not give his reason and that be\ndared not run again in Vancouver, preferring to bury himself In the wilds of\nCariboo and there take up a hopeless\nfight. Last election he had been one\nof tbe \"solid five' 'of Vancouver, now\nthere Is a new \"solid five,\" which the\nliberals on February 2nd will make the\n\"salted five.\" Why, he asked, had\nGreen disappeared from the fight; why\nhad Wilson gone to Cariboo? Why,\nbut to run away to cover up the secret\nof the reasons for their resignations.\nHe apologised tor the word, although, he\nexplained, it had been used on the same\nplatform by Bowser, the word \"rotten.\"\nHe felt sure hla hearers would agree\nthat tn the matter of the resignations of\nGreen and Wilson, there was \"something rotten In the state of Denmark.\"\nGreen's resignation he showed, resulted lu tho immediate dissolution if the houso\nwhen Btich action bod not In any way\nbeen contemplated toy McBride as a mutter of fact but two days before Green's\nresignation the call had gone forth for\nthe assembly of the house, but this h>>d\nboon Immediately cancelled on Green's\ndropping out, and the elections precipitated. There were grave reasons for\nQreen'H resignation, graver possibly than\nanyone guessed, and on the face of It\nthey could not be other than that there\n\u25a0were facts tn connection with the lands\nrtnd Works department which .wayld have\ncome out on the house rennsembf-ing and\nthat Green dared not face the pOHslblli-\ntles.\nThe people of the coast, more in touch\nwith the actions of the governajjsnt, are\nthe ones who are ripest for a change. The\ngovernment Ms -been In power for three\nyears and we know that their reoord Is\none of bungling, of'-Incapacity and knowing this wo will beat them this time with'\na certainty. We camo within nn ace of It\nlust time. And now under a lender who\nhas the confidence and respect of I'UI\nclasses, we will win out handsomely. Three\nyears ago we won eight seats on the Island. This time we will win ten. Vancouver will return five liberals, and so It'\ngoes all nlong tho line. That is the reason\nI say my salary will begin on Fob. 3\n\"I will now turn my nttentlon to the\nalnlm that McBrlde saved B.C. from bankruptcy. ThlB is the most nonsensical trash.\nB.C. has never been and cannot be bankrupt. How could It be with all this wealth\nof natural resources nnd grand opportunities. Ho; that band of amateur financiers\nwere taken 'by the throat by a bunch of\nbankers and frightened into borrowing d.-\n000,000 at 5 per cent. Think of this. Why\nI know fanners on Vancouver island who\ncan bonirow money for less thin this. Then\nso far from being In the financial straits\nthat they pretend, they hnve not used hair\nof this sum yet, and you are paying interest on this money, though half of it -lies\nuncalled for. So much for their financial\ndifficulties and the bungling manner In\nwhich the McBrlde government handled\nthem.\nThe   B.C.   Southern  scandal  was   next\ntouched  on  In  trenchant  terms,  Mr. Mcinnes explaining how the McBHde government  has  refused to  make the  railway\ncompany pay the taxes It should pay. Had\nthe   government  collected   these   taxes  it\nwould have  been entirely unnecessary  to\npass the iniquitous assessment act which\nIncreased everyone's taxes W per cent on\nproperty and 100 per cent on personal property, whereas a great and nidi corporation had been allowed to shirk and dodge\nits obligations.    The  amount  that  .should\nhave ibeen  paid by the railway company\nwas   more   than  enough  to make   It   unnecessary to Increuse the general taxation.\nThe  government, declared   the   speaker,\nhad been most unbuBiness tike and lie Instanced   the   tremendous  tracts   of   very\nvaluable timber in the northern part of\nVancouver island which were being given\naway to speculators nt but a fraction of a\nreasonable price\u2014to speculators and not to\nthe men who would develop It\u2014to the speculators who bought only to sell again at\na profit.   Millions of dollars worth of timber had thus been practically given away.\nMr. Mcinnes snld he believed that u good\n\u25a0business   administration   could  so   handle\nthe (resources of the province that it would\nsoon not be necessary to levy any taxes.\nHe instanced  a  concrete  example  In  the\nreserves  held by the Ontario government\nIn Cobalt, as a result of which but a short\ntime ago one 40-aere reserve of Cobalt had\nbeen sold by tender, bringing a million and\na quarter dollar--..    With   the  tremendous\nresources of B.C., of timber, of coal and\nof  lauds,  a  .similar  course   might   easily\nfree the province from  taxation for ever.\nTho matter of \"better terms\" Is a simple\none.   Years ngo the provinces entered into\na partnership,   Now, as might hftVe been\nHupposcd.  as  the years  have  gone by,  It\nhae been found that things hnve not ran\nas smoothly as the might, nnd have from\ntime  to   time  required  adjustment.    ThlB\nsimple   matter  ot u  business   adjustment\nwas taken up again a short time ago. McBrlde alone, of nil the premiers who gathered,   went   alone.    Other  premiers   went\n-with ministers to assist them.   It may be\nthat McBrlde knew that he had nolnnn in\ntho cabinet lit to take with him.   Ho did\ntake a newspnper man with him and he\n\u25a0went to sent out to the const bulletins ns\nto the great hero McBrlde waa making of\nhimself.   One would have thought that he\nwas reporting a prize fight.   No such thing\nwas  going on  there.    No  more  dignified\nbody of men ever gathered In Canada th-an\nthose who were there nt that conference.\nThey were  there  to calmly consider  the\nclaims of onch province nnd fairly award,\nto  each  what was fair  to each.   Now,\nMoBrlde, either because he did not understand the case he had in hand, on because\nhe had no desire to do other than raise\nan election cry, bungled the whole matter.    Then,  when he had found that  he\ncould not run the whole show, did he retire In -a dignified manner?  Did he net as\na statesman should?  No.   He rushed out,\nslammed the door behind him and at once\nbegan to  accuse  his brother premiere  of\nhaving treated him unfairly and of being\ndishonest.   Now, when you think of this,\nyou must acknowledge  that  so long as\nhuman nature remains os It Is, MoBrlde\nhas put himself out of court for ever so far\nas better terms are concerned.   He  has\naccused the only tribunal from which better terms  can come,  of being dishonest-\nHe can never again appear before them\nand hope for consideration.   It will remain\nfor a liberal leader like Mr. Macdonald to\ngo. ns premier of B.C., to a new conference of premiers nnd there, by an able and\nstatesmanlike  presentation  of  the  claims\naf B.C., get what wo ore so clearly entitled to.\nrefused, but Instead of (forcing the C.P.R.\nInto the courts to prove Ub contested claim\nto the lands, tho MoBrlde government had,\ndeliberately handed the lands over. Then\nho showed how ths meddling interference\nof minister of finance Tatlow, had stopped,\nwork on the Midway and Vernon road,\nthe only possible explanation being that,\nthe Midway and Vernon would be a competitor of the C.P.R. In the one case\neverything had been done for the C.P.R.,)\nIn the other nothing was done but to stop]\nthe building of the railway, and that because It was not the C.P.R.\nIf the liberal party cannot come into\npower without selling themselves to a corporation like the C.P.R. it will not come\ninto power at all. If the liberal party cannot remain In power without making such\nan alliance as McBride has made with the\n(C.P.R. that party will go out of power\nand remain out as long as the C.P.R. controls the situation. j\nThe Grand Trunk Pacific situation was\nthen taken up and the claim that there\nwas any connection between this road and\nthe liberals of B.C. was punctured. There\nwas no reason why a five cent piece should\nbe given by any party to this road. They\nhad only four years more in which to build\nthis road and would have to get In and\ndrill In order to complete It In time to\nprevent the forfeiture of 15,000,000 put up,\nas a bond.\nThe history of MoBrlde In connection\nwith the G.T.P. and the C.P.R. was made\nclear und the business methods of the McBrlde government contrasted with that of\nthe old Si wash chief who had sold slmllan\nlands to tlie Kaien Island property at J7\nper acre, to the great credit of tlie SLwash.\nIn a most eloquent and thrilling maimer\nMcinnes swept to a conclusion that ftrltly\ncarried his audience to Its ifeet In a burst\nof frantic cheering. i\nReferring to tho relations existing between the MoBrlde government and the\nC.P.R. and with the government's efforts to divert the attention of the country\nfrom thnt guilty connection, Mr. Mcinnes\nalluded to the notorious refusnl of the\nMcBrlde government to tax C.P.K. East\nKootenay lands, to say nothing of the Iniquitous grant of 800,000 ucres of land to\nthe C.P.R. In tho ColumbVi and Western\ngrant. In detail the speaker went Into this;\ngrant showing that It was not a new matter, that the mad had been built and running for years, and that for all those years\nthe C.P.R. bad been begging and importuning succeeding governments for tho\nlands.

A. Macdonald was heard lu a masterly elucidation of his party's policy\nand a lulling and incontrovertible ar-\n) aignment or the misdeeds and blunders\nof the MoBrlde administration. Of the\nmeeting held here by MoBrlde and Bowser a week ago, local conservatives\nhave boasted that It was a success tbat\nneither Macdonald nor any other opposition speaker could equal. As a matter of the fact It was totally eclipsed by\nthe Macdonald meeting, not only in the\nmatter of attendance hut In enthusiasm\nand appreciation of the points scored\nlu a masterly speech.\nThe meeting was presided over by\nmayor Brown. E. A. Haggen was tbe\nflrst speaker and he devoted himself\nprincipally to telling criticism of local\nmatters, showing how shamefully the\nconstituency had boon treated in public\nworks despite wild promises just prior\nto the last election and then Lefeaux,\nihe socilalist took his turn making fun\nuse of tho chance to propound the tis'ial\nsocialist propaganda. Candidate Frank\nCayley spoke hut shortly, making a\nmanly and effective appeal for the votes\nof his hearers. He was given a splendid reception. Leader Macdonald spoko\nupward of an hour and a half during\nwhich he was constantly intermit.el\nby outbursts of applause as he nibde\npoint after point in his most effey.wo\nstyle. All the main issues of the campaign were touched upon at more cr\nless length. Mr. Macdonald spoke very\nstrongly on the question of irrigation,\nshowing how the government had so\ncompletely neglected its plain duty and\nhad In fact not even made tbe matter\nau excuse for its usual promises until\nthe opposition had come out with its\nclear cut policy.\nMr. Tom Taylor, the conservative\ncandidate was on the platform and was\ngiven full opportunity to speak. He\nreceived a very good hearing but failed\nIn a labored attempt to answer Mr.\nMacdonald's scathing criticism of McBrlde and his government.\nMr. Alex Henderson of Vancouver\nclosed the meeting in a characteristic\nfighting speech which aroused the\ngreatest enthusiasm. He confidently predicted victory for Cayley, and waa answered with cheers. The meeting has\nconfirmed the confidence of the liberal-\nworkers here who state now that Cay-\nley's election is asBurred.\nKENORA WINS AGAIN\nMontreal, Jan. 21,-The Stanley cup goes\nwest.

A general\nelection was in progress and he\nwas addressing a meeting of the\nelectors on behalf of the government candidate. Some of his hearers insisted that he indicated the\nLondon TlmeB as one of the purchasable organs. But this he afterwards denied, and he is entitled\nto the benefit ot that denial.\nAmong the writers who supported\nMr. Turner's statement was Carter\nCotton, then, as now, editor of the\nNews-Advertiser, nnd then, as now,\na candidate for the local house.\nIt was a bold statement to make,\nbut It was accepted by Mr. Turner's\nfriends as true. It appeared that\none ot London's financial papers,\n(It may have been and likely was\nthe Financial NewB), had assailed\nMr. Turner'B Mlcawherlsm and extravagant policy. This assault he\nresented wifff the remark we have\nquoted. Mr. Turner Is now In London where he discharges the duties\nof agent-general for the province\nwith singular efficiency and zeal.\nThere are portions of the News'\narticle thnt would seem to show\nthat It was written by someone who\nhad more than a passing or speculative Interest tn retaining this\ngovernment in power.\nEDITORIAL NOTES.\nIn Rossland the MoBrlde government\ncandidate, Lome, A.

He told a Rossland audience on Saturday night that he fought\nJohn Houston and tbe city of Nelson\nto a standstill and could- always be\ncounted upon to stay by his guns.\nOn Saturday the A. P. (handled by\nthe C. P. R. In Canada) sent out Its\nfirst report of a liberal campaign\nmeeting. Referring to the address delivered by W. W. B. Mcinnes in Rossland, It quoted him as saying: \"If the\nliberals are returned to power, they will\ngive you a stable government, an honest government and an Independent\ngovernment. We want a liberal government returned to power supported\nby good honest liberals, a government\nwhich wilt be Independent of the labor\nelement and of the socialists. If we\ncan't get along without the labor element and tbe socialist element, we wilt\ngo back to the country, rather than\nseek to carry on the affairs of the government with such aid.\" It is difficult\nto understand the carelessness which\nallowed the C. P. R. to send out a despatch so condemnatory of premier McBride's methods ot holding on to power;\nbut It is easy to appreciate the welcome\nthe manly, Independent statement made\nby Mr, Mcinnes will receive at the hands\nof the great throng of electors who are\ndisgusted with the socialist domination\nof the existing government\nDid we hear someone say that R.

There was no\nnew business discussed, 'but several matters were laid over until Monday night.\nThe principal work effected was the sulking of the standing committees for the\nyear. There wore present mayor Qlllett,\naldermen Irving, Selous, Annable and Mc-\nMorris.\nAfter the minutes of the previous meeting had ibeen read and approved the following committees were struck:\nFinance\u2014Rose, Selous, Irving.\nWorks\u2014Hume, Irving, Annable.\nFire Water and Light-SelouB, IVse, McMorrla.\nTramway, and Henlth\u2014Anna'oie, Rose und\nSelous.\nThe Are wardens appointed were aldermen Selous and McMorrla.\nThe meeting of the council was fixed for\neach alternate Monday at 8 o'clock In the\nevening, to begin next Monday niglil.\nThe pay roll wns then adopted. A written tender of $300 for advertising Inside\nand outside the tram corn for the year by\nGeorge Uorstead was altered and accepted (by the council to rend $180 poo annum\nfor the Inside only, the same rate as that\npaid last year.\nVarious coal firms claimed a less through\nthe defective state of the city scales and\nasked for a better inspection. Alderman\nSelous stated the law called for an Inspection once a yoar, ibut if the municipality were liable it would be better to\nchange the system. He therefore moved\nthat tho matter bo referred to tho city\nsolicitor, which was done.\nTho consideration of the reports of the\nvarious departments was deferred until\nnext Monday.\nMlnnfi linlntent Cures 0ittM|ptr\nSHARP 6 IRVINE.

The todies were partly devoured\n\u25a0by wolves find could not be Identified, but\nIt Is believed that they are the remains of\ntwo homesteaders. No trace of any horses\nIs reported.

The\nsituation Is getting serious again, with\nlittle prospects of early relief. There has\nbeen no wood in the city for nearly two\nweeks and many people especially the poor\nclasses, are entirely out of both wood and\ncoal. The city authorities have about H\u00bb\ntons of coal, principally hard, on hand.\nWhat soft coal they have on hand they\nrefuse to give to the schools as they are\nholding It for the private use of cltlsens.\nST.  EUOENE CLOSED\nShut Down Bm.iuso Cold Snap Stopped\n\u25a0*\u2022>,    Puel Supply\nMoyle, Jan. 21\u2014The St Eugene mine and\nmilt have practically ceased operations.\nA few men are working but not many.\nThe sole cause of tbls la the extremely cold\nweather which has prevailed. The temperature was 48 degrees oelow zero at Bank-\nhead, whence the supply of coal Is obtained and they could not get coal out of\nthe mine, as the air motor, which Is used\nfor drawing coal out of the mine, was\nfrozen up and it was found Impossible to\nkeep it going. As the weather is moderating, coal will soon be obtained again and\nthings will be In full blast here.\nSme of the men here are talking of going\naway, but they are ndvlsed to consider the\nmatter very carefully before doing so. The\ncause of the shut down Is not local but\ngeneral. There Is an nhsolute certainty of\na resumption of work here within n very\nBhort time, and a person g^lng away would\nbe likely to spend several titties as much\ntravelling as he would on board if he remained here. Besides he might after\nspending such money have to come back\nhere to get work.\nNO RECIPROCITY IN PRUIT\n\u25a0Grimsby, Ont., Jan. a\u2014A largely attended mass meeting, of fruit growers of\nthe Niagara district held here on Friday\ncondemned the action of the directors of\nthe Ontario Fruit Growers' association in\nappointing a committee to confer with the\nHorticultural association of the state of\nMichigan relative to the Inauguration ot\nreciprocity in fruit between Canada,-and the\nUnited States, The following resolution\nwas passed; \"We disapprove of the action\nof the directors of the Ontario Fruit\nGrowers' association In stating that the\ntariff on fruits is to high, when the Increasing expenses in fighting insects and\ndiseases, the high prices of labor, scarcity\nand high price of fruit packages, and the\nenormous cost and loss in transportation\nare considered.\"\nAT THE THEATRE)\nThe enormous business done by George\nH.

Among these are the three\nclaims owned by D. Campbell and John\nR. Colllster at East Sooke, 3 1-2 miles from\ndeep water, to which there Is an sasy\ngrade and clear right of way for an serlsl\ntramway, and a group of claims at the\nheadwaters of the north fork of Leech\nriver, owned separately by \"Cap\" Martin,\nSam Flnley. William Shelton and W. P.\nJaynes. The option on the former Is understood to be at $100,000 and on the latter\nflfiO.000. p\nThe plans of the Ouggenhelms for this\nlocality Involve the erection of a smelter\nnnd development of other properties of\nthe district as well as those whloh have\nbeen bonded. The Campbell-CollIster property has showings 150 feet wide, which\ncan be traced for nearly 1000 feet Workings aro down about GOO or 600 feet and\nshow the face of the copper body at 80\nfeet. The nssays have shown high values;\na sample taken from the workings at rsn-\ndom and which can be taken as sn average asmy, showed a total or $30.60 In all\nvalues to the ton, mostly of copper. There\nwas a trace of gold and a trace of silver.\nThe ore Is copper pyrites.\nThe terms of the option which has bean\ntaken on the property by an agent of the\nOuggenbetms, are that the property fs to\nbe purchased for 1100,000, of which 10 per\ncent It to be paid down within 20 days from\nthe dale'op'whli'.i' tW dptlbs was given-\nFor 33 Years\nShiloh'i Consumption Cure, the Lung\nTonic, has beta before tbe public, and\nthW, together with the iset thai iu lalet\nhave steadily inaeaied yen by year, ii lhe\nb\u00abt proof of the merit ef\nShiloh\na* a core for CougK Cold*, am) all\ndueaiet of the lungs end air passages.\nThose who have used Shiloh would not\nbe without it.

R. ROSS WILL NOT MEET HIS\nOPPONENTS.\n(Special to The pally News)\nFernle, Jan. 21.\u2014Tbe Interest and\nexcitement manifested In tbe municipal\ncontest which was waged In the city\nduring the past week has now been\ntransferred to the provincial political\narena and each day Bees increased activity in the political organizations\nthroughout the riding, and before the\n2nd February next fruitless energy will\nhave been expended. Mr. W. R. Ross\nand his partisans are fighting the fight\nof their lives, apparently realizing the\nhopelessness of their cause, for though\nthe conservative candidate Is broad\nshouldered and a magnificent specimen\nor young Canadian physical manhood,\nthe load he has to carry, the sins of\nomission and commission of bis party,\nis too great for even his herculean\nstrength. He has as yet shown no\nburning desire to meet his opponents\non the public platform to discuss the\nissues of the day, for though invited\nto be present at the big Mclunes meeting he was conspicuous by his absence.\nmuch to the regret of a large portion\nof the audience who were curious to\nhear his explanation of. certain actions\nof the government of which he was a\nmember. On the other hand, W. M.\nPicket} fa gaining strength every day;\nhie organization has ben perfected and\nhe has the hearty support and assistance ot a united band of enthusiastic\nworkers who have taken off their costs\nand are throwing themselves into the\nfray with a spirit that spoils victory\nfor their candidate. Several public\nmeetings will be held In his Interest\nbetween now and election day, at some\nof which J. A. Macdonald, the liberal\nleader, has signified his Intention of be'\ning present, and it Is to be hoped that\nwhen the conservative candidate has\nsomewhat recovered from the pitt'o\nhis party Is In, he can be induced to\ntry conclusions on the platform wtth\nhiB opponents. The socialists held two\nmeetings during last week in the Interest of W. If. Moore, J. D .Mortimer\nbeing the drawing card, but the progress\nmade by pie party does not warrant it\nbeing considered a serious factor in this\nelection. Altogether, the feeling of ,he\nliberal party in the riding is one of\ngreat confidence In their ability to elect\nMr, Dlcken, and this confidence Is ie-\ncoming more deep seated as the campaign advances and tbey see the desperate plight their opponents are In\nall over the province.\nFAST ATLANTIC UNB.\nC. P. R. Will Build New Vessels Without Delay.\nMontreal, Jan. 21.\u2014It Is stated unofficially that long before the promoters of the Hacksode Bay Ship Company have their line in running order,\nand long before they can hope to have\nany vessels on the ocean, the C. P. R.\nwill bave established a fast line of\nsteamers between the Old Country and\nCanada. Sir Thomas Shaughnessy has\ndespatched Mr. Piers, the steamship\nmanager of the C. P. R-, to the Old\nCountry with Instructions to undertake\narrangements for the building of new\nvessels for the fleet. Mr. Piers will\nplace orders within a month with one\nof the largest ship building firms on the\nClyde tor two ocean llnan. These will\nexceed the present Empresses In accommodation and will have a guaranteed average speed of not less than\ntwenty-three knots. They will be\namong the finest liners afloat.\nPULL OF POLITICIANS\nGreenwood has Two Meetings In one Short\nDay\n(Crowded out of Sunday's Issue)\nPhoenix, Jan. ls-Phoenlx waa full or\npoliticians yesterday and two meetings\nwere held In Miners' union hull on behalf\nof the various candidates for the legislative assembly. About noon a special train\narrived on the Great Northern from Grand\nForks, brining premier MoBrlde and K.\nMiller, conservative candidate for Grand\nForks riding, In whloh Phoenix Is sltumed.\nIn, order to get in a meeting between\nGrand Forks and Greenwood, In which\nlatter place tha'premler spoke last night,\nthe conservative meeting was held here in\nthe afternoon.\nAlthough the hour was Hot tbe best, a\nfair audience assembled to hear Mr. McBrlde and Mr. Miller. The premier gave a\ntalk on the work of his administration,\nshowing what had been done by the government In tbe three years It had been In\npower and stated that there was every\nevidence that the government would be returned with an Increased majority.\nAfter the meeting the party was driven\nto Greenwood, where a meeting was held\nlast evening in the Interests of E. C. Warren, the Greenwood conservative candidate\nin that riding.\nLast night the socialists held their first\nrally of the campaign In Phoenix, ami had\nrepresentatives of all the parties on the\nplatform, J. Mclnnis, the soclaJits candidate, spoke on what had been done by the\ntwo or three socialists now In the legislature. He was followed by E. Miller, the\nconservative candidate, who referred to\nthe splendid financial showing mode by\nthe present government. F. E. Simpson,\neditor of the Cranbrook Herald, and organizer for the liberals for tbe interior,\nspoke for the liberal candidate, who was\nnot present, and tore down the former\nspeaker's contentions. The meeting was\nclosed by Benjamin P. Wilson, who told\nall about socialism and why tt should be\nuniversally adopted  by  all  worklngmen.\nIS UNFAIR TO KASLO\nARTICLE) WRITTEN TO .EASTERN PAPER BY CLERGYMAN\nINDIFFERENCE OF PEOPLE IS \"AMAZING, ASTOUNDING\" .\nThe peopte of Kaslo will read with some\nsurprise the following article, taken from\nthe Charlottetown, Prince Edward Island,\nPatriot, which reprints It from the Presbyterian Witness. It Is supposed to be a\nletter from Rev. A. -Simpson, recounting\nhis Impressions of the fruit town. If he\nis correctly, quoted, Mr. Simpson has not\nas good an opinion of Kaslo as most other\npeople who visit that Interesting burgh\nhave.   Here Is the excerpt :\n\"KasIo, where I am, Is a mining town\non the west side of the Kootenay. lake, or\nabout EOO inhabitants, and, like ull the\nmining towns of B.C.. Is anything but an\neasy place for ministers, To say nothing\nof the saloonB and gambling dens and\nworse places, the Indifference to the church\nand her services on the part of the people\ngenerally, notably on the part of the men,\nis to one like myself from the east, something surprising, amazing, astounding.\nReligion Ib about the last thing they seem\nto think or, the church the last place\nthey seem to go. Fancy if you can, a\nchurch, so-called, without nn elder, without a male member, without a man to assist in the Sabbath school or prayer meeting\u2014but such Is the church at Kaslo to\nwhich I was appointed a few weeks ago.\nTbe people are Intelligent, agreeable, kind\nand all that, want to hive a minister\namong them, and are fairly liberal in their\nsupport but feel themselves under little or\nno obligation to attend the service he conducts; still.less to assume the responsibilities of membership. It Is a new phase of\nchurch life and work for me, that I hardly know how to deal with. There Is undoubtedly plenty of work here In the west\nfoil the brethren who are coming from the\neast, but in the west generally, and particularly In B.C., it is work that calls for\nall the tact patience and courage they can\npossibly bring to bear upon It. The climate In this part of B.C. is mild and the\nscenery beautiful. I expect to remain for\nthe winter.\"\nDOCKSTEADER NOMINATED\nNew Denver, Jan. 21\u2014The following electors of the Slocan electoral district\nnominated Archibald Bone Docksteader of\nVernon street, in the city of Nelson, as the\nliberal candidate, at the election about to\nbe held for tho legislative assembly: Robt.\nHllchcy, Slocan, miner; Percy Frank\nCrick, Nakusp, seconder, Charles F.

The statement\nreads: \"Houston Is put up by Schofleld, and will confine his attentions to\nthose places where he can hurt Hume.\"\nDuring fifteen years of active political\nlife in Kotenay, I have neither used\n\"decoy ducks\" nor have I ever been a\n'decoy duck.\" I am contesting Ymir\nriding as an independent, not as an\n\"independent conservative\" as you\nclassify me In your list of candidates.\nI am under no obligations, either political or financial, to Mr. Schofleld or\nany other candidate. That I will beat\nMr. Hume I am confident, for I accomplished more in one year as a private\nmember of the legislature than he did\nduring his four years as a private member and two years as a member of the\nSemlin government, and the people of\nYmlr riding know it. If defeated, I\nwill not bear a grudge against any conservative or liberal for supporting the\nnominees or their party. But I believe\na majority of the electors of Ymlr riding are independent thinkers on political questions, and1 that they, and not\nthe minority of liberals and conservatives, should and will be represented In\nthe legislative assembly when it meets\nIn Victoria on March 24th.\nJOHN HOUSTON.\nMadden House, Jan. 20th,\nRURAL TELEPHONES\nEditor The Dally Ncws-Bo many of our\npoliticians arc city meti that the questions\nwhich affect the farmers, miners and all\nwho do not live In the cities nn* often\noverlooked. I proposo to point out In this\nnrtlclo what in my opinion Is the most\npressing necessity to tlio rural population\nof this province and moreover to give\nreasons for my belief.\nIf either political leader propped to\nabolish telephones in our cities ho would\nmet by a most Indignant outcry from\nall parts and even the Kalen island question would probably sink Into liislgnlllcunco\n'but if telephoned \u2022'ire Important In tho\ncities, surely they ore of greater importance In the country districts; tho distances\nare far greater and the available messengers are fewer, ouch telephone message\nonly naves a few minutes on the average\nIn Nelson, whilst In the country the power\nto sptAk to a man at a distance would\noften save hours and even days of useless\ntoll.\nAll students of the problems which confront our modern civilization deplore the\ntendency of the population to drift Into\nthe cities, and all sorts of wise people\nmoralize on the degeneration of tho race\ncaused thereby, and on the beauty and\nhealthiness of country life, etc. They long\nto go and live in the country but they take\nvery grt-at care that they never do; they\nwould not be wise If they did. To live\nIn the country means a hard and Isolated\nlife even under the best of conditions and\nIt is especially hard on the women folk.\nThere are doubtless many compensations\nand they are supposed to learn to value\nfreedom, Independence, etc. But It Is hnrd\nto keep up this heroic strain and tho bravest woman may well be forgiven if she\nshould occasionally like to be Iobb Independent and  have  more  neighbors,\nBut there are very many practical sides\nto this question which must not be overlooked. The C.P.R. has had two holdups\nlately and on one occasion the robbers\ngot safely away; Immediately there arose\na cry for more police, but would It not\nbe more practical to ask every farm, mine\nand logging camp of any Importance to\nconnect by telephone, so that our police\ncould locate the robbers ut once. We\nhave hardly any violent crimes in the Slocan. becuuse would-be crlmlnnis know how\nhard this country Is to eioupe from, whilst\ndown in the Boundary cuuntry serious\ncrimes are much more frequent because n\ncriminal has, a good chanco to slip out.\nForest protection from fires is rightly a\nmain plank In the liberal platform; again\nI say that the most practical way to preserve our forests Is to have every settlement connected iby telephone so (that\nalarms of Ures may bo promptly given and\nhelp summoned. Ask your Nelson lire\nchief how he would like to see the telephone taken out of the firs hall at Nelson.\nOur poltloians run around shortly bo-\nfore elections and advise we poor farmers\nto organise, to co-operate and to vol* for\nPorto Rico Lumber Co., Ltd.\nNaurictiren at ud 'Wtilewle Deaieirii\n.ROUGH AND DKB8BBD LUMBER, aHDrOLW AND MOULDINGS,   HAND.\ntmnnttH0 TUBNBD WOBK- \u2022*\" ot-to-datb dry kiln in con-\nBEAD OFFICE: NELSON, R.C.\nMills at   Ymir and Moris, B.

S. secretary of state\nRoot was entertained ut luncheon today\nby the Canadian Press club. Sunday he\nspent at government house, where at dinner he met sir Wilfrid Laurler, Hon, Clifford Slfton, Jlon. W. 8. Fielding, Hon. A.\nB. Aylesworth and their wives. He talked\nfreely to the press after his arrival, but\nstated that his visit had no diplomatic significance.\n\"Mr. Root, there is n good deal of Interest In Canada In your visit, and a good\ndeal f curiosity as to Its significance,\" was\nthe first suggestion.\n\"It will be easy,\" said Mr. Root, \"to\nsatisfy the curiosity of the\"people if the\nsimplicity of the explanation does not take\nus out of the category of newa, I am here\nbecause lord Grey when lie was in Washington last winter, was good' enough to\nInvite Mrs, Root nnd myself and daugli-\nler to come to Ottawa. It Is purely a so-\nclal visit. It has not any political or governmental or diplomatic shii* at al, unless\nit lie this, that all affairs in this world\ngo better when people know each other,\nand get to like each other. Tho great,\ncause of controversy among nations is misunderstanding, the failure of people In ono\ncountry to appreciate the point of view of\ntho people In another country. A better\nknowledge lends to n better understanding\nand better understanding to more kindly\nfeeling and more reasonable treatment,\nTho mcro exchange of friendly courtesy, in\nthat view litis a political and government* 1\nside. My visit has no other aspect than\nthat.\"\n\"Do you not think the feeling between\ntho U.S. and Canada is better now than\never before?\"\n\"I should be Inclined to say that la true.\nSo far as I have been able to Bee there\nlias always been a kindly feeling towards\niViiKiila in the United States.\"\nGood opportunity was given secretary\nRoot to have a talk with the premier on\nCanadian nnd United States affairs. Although the conversation was, of course.\nInformal, It may result In good. There are\na variety of subjects more or leas of an\nIrritating character, which might be settled\nbetween the two countries without having\nany recourse to BUCh tribunals as thai employed In the Alaska afflalr. It is no secret that Canada wants to avoid anything\nof that kind. There is cor instance, the\ndivision of tho waters and territory along\nthe boundary line (from Pugot Sound on\nthe Pacific coast, to the St. John river on\nthe Atlantic coast. An understanding on\nthe matter la desirable and tho CAnadlan\ngovernment la willing to give and take to\nhave this reached. The waterways commission la doing good work In this direction and Its recommendations may lead to\nu settlement which will be In the Interests\not both countries.\nDRAMATIC CONTEST\nGovernor General's Competition Opens on\nJanuary 23 , :\nOttnwa.
