It recompenses those who are\nmaking the sacrifices which the work\ninvolves. But appreciation of the efforts of the Red Cross members is\nnot confined to the soldiers. Those\nwho have to remain at home recognize\nthat without it the entente allies could\nnot hope to win the war. It is one of\nthe factors essential to victory in the\nStruggle.\nACCIDENT   CONVEYS   A   LESSON\nTO PARENTS.\nThe accident to little David McLeod,\nwho lost a foot as a result of being\nrun over by a streetcar yesterday, was\none of those unfortunate affairs\nwhich It Is almost impossible to\nprevent. But it calls attention to\nthe necessity for warning parents\nagainst allowing their children to engage In the hazardous amusement of\nplaying on the streetcar tracks. It is\nnot unusual to see children playfully\nrun in front of cars, or climb on the\nsteps or on the bars which run beneath\nthe cars between the front and rear\nwheels.\nWhile yesterday's accident apparently was not due to either of these\ncauses it emphasizes the danger in\nwhich children place themselves by\nplaying around the cars. The accident\nteaches a lesson which may prevent\nfatalities If it is taken to heart.\nTURNING  THE   SWORD  BACK  TO\nTHE  PLOWSHARE.\nThere aro two points that stand out\nprominently in thc statement of the\nimperial munitions, board made public\nat Ottawa yesterday. One Is that the\nfact that during the past week the\n-entente allies have placed additional\nmunition orders for $60,000,000 in Canada Indicates that an early peace is\nnot anticipated. The other Is the 1m\nmensity of thc munitions business that\nhas boen built up in Canada and the\neffect Its withdrawal will have on\nthe economic conditions of thc country\nunless adequate preparations are made\nduring the war for promptly turning\nthe war plant into a peace plant for\nthe production of the hundreds of articles for which thc cessation of tho\nstruggle will bring an immense demand.\nIn two years thc imperial munitions\nboard, und the shell commission which\nWas Its predecessor, has placed orders\nfor more than half a billion dollars'\nworth ot munitions in Canada. Roughly this is equivalent to half of Canada's annual total import and export\ntrade In the Immediate ante-war\nperiod. Most of thc concerns now turning out munitions can manufacture\nsupplies of articles Canada will need\nafter thc war If it is to win the position in world commerce to which It Is\nentitled.\nA  SUBJECT THAT  CALLS  FOR  A\nLARGE ATTENDANCE.\n\\ The opera house should be crowded\nito the doors tomorrow evening when\nan address on thc Canadian patriotic\nfund will be delivered by Sir Herbert\nB.

The time\nhas arrived when it is for Greece to\nmake the concessions.\nGermany has admitted casualties of\n3,556,018. It is not surprising that the\nGerman people arc growing more uneasy.

That\nused to be quite the regular thing In\nVermont\u2014for a farmer's boy to have\nsome good stock of his own, or a\npiece of ground which he carried on\nhimself and from which he sold the\nproduce. The custom explains a good\ndeal of the resourcefulness and thrlft-\ntlness of the average Vermonter when\nhe gets out In tho world. The old-\nfashioned Vermont paterfamilias recognized the value of educating his\nboys in gumption by presenting them\nat an early age with nn animal or getting thorn to farm on their own nc\ncount a little piece of ground. In the\ndays of sheep there Iho thing was\ncomparatively easy. When a boy was,\nsay seven years old, and was already\nquite a Little Man, his father presented him with a ewe lamb on this basis:\nAlt tho Increase from tho ewe was to\nbelong to the boy In fee simple, out\nand out,' but the father took the wool\nin return for tlie cost of the keep of\nthe boy's stock. The wool really paid\nthe cpst of the keep and the increase\nwas the boy's legitimate property. He\nwns supposed to take care of his own\nsheep\u2014to look after the lambs and so\non. By this means he became a good\nshepherd and his little flock increased\nfrom year to year. From time to time\nhe sold a fat wether and obtained a\nbit of money for any expenditure ho\nliked, or to add to his savings bank\naccount and If, when he had reached\nthe mature age of 16. he wished to sell\nthe entire flock and put the money\ninto some other enterprise he was as\nfree to do so as if he were of age.\nTho boy's flock of sheep was In the\nold times thc foundation of real\nwealth, or of personal independence.\nThen there was the little pleco of\ngarden or field ground. The boy took\ncare of this himself and sold his produce. The piece of ground wns not so\nbig but what tho boy could \"run\" It by\ngetting up a little earlier in thc morn\nIng or by taking half an hour after\ndinner while the hired men were rest\ning, or by working in a little time here\nand thore. Commonly the boy raised\nsome one crop on the piece and sold\nIt out in the fall; onions were a good\ncrop for the purpose; or it might be t\nfancy sort of potatoes, you may de\npond upon it In the case of a boy with\nreal enterprise this piece of land re\nreived intensive cultivation and the\ncrop was a big one. It certainly did\nas much to make a farmer out of the\nboy as any instruction that he received in a regular course of thc farm\nbusiness,\u2014Boston   Transcript. ,\n! RAYMOND ASQUITH.\n\"The untimely death of Mr. Raymond Asqulth,\" said an eminent member of the English bar to a Daily\nNews respresentatlve last night, \"deprives the bar of a man who was at\nonce a brilliant scholar and a brilliant lawyer. Of his attainments as\na scholar a sufficient sign is tho remarkable series of honors and distinctions which be carried off in the\nUniversity of Oxford, where he followed witli curious precision In the\nsteps of his father.\n\"At the bar he had already made his\ninfluence felt, and, apart from his\ngeneral practice at the common law-\nbar, had won distinction at the parliamentary bar, and also before the\njudicial committee of tho privy council. There can he little doubt that if\nho had lived lie would have had quite\none of the most brilliant careers at the\nICngtlsh bar.\n\"If I wore asked to name his most\ndistinctive quality, I think 1 should\nsay that it was a remarkable conciseness, austerity, and lucidity of phrase,\ncuriously reproducing what Is perhaps one of the most signal characteristics of the prime minister, Mr.\nRaymond Asi-uitli had a scholar's\nsense for the right word and the well,\npruned phraaso.

It was in January, 1904, that the\nAvenger ran ashore in a very awkward position, and since then somewhere about a dozen attempts have\nbeen made to get her off. Salving\ncontractors are a stubborn body of\nmen, and hate to admit that a task Ik\nimpossible. She is to be rebuilt at\na cost of $75,000. Then no doubt she\nwill be fixed to load at a good fat\nfreight that will go a long way towards paying for tho cost of reconstruction and rerlgglng, Built of iron\nat Whitehaven in 1879, the Avenger\nfor a long period of years was a well-\nknown British-Australia clipper, running regularly in tlie wool trade between Australia and the Thames. She\nwas always commanded by skippers\nof the old school, mon who knew how\n(o squeeze the last half knot out of\nher, and often it happened that she\ndid her long passage between London\nand thc Antipodes in round about 90\ndays. When I knew the vessel some\n2,'\u00bb years ago Captain Ferguson bad\nher. He died at sea, and I recall very\nwell that, anticipating thnt fate, he\nhad incorporated in his will a clause\nsaying that they wore not to waste\ngood new canvas In sewing him up but\nwore to use a piece of an old sail. The\nAvenger, like many another.old British ship, finally passed Into foreign\nownership, and nt thc time of her\nstranding she flew the flag of Nor\nway.\u2014Manchester Guardian.\nI               THE WEATHER.\n\u25a0>\u2666\u00bb*)\u2666\u2666\u00bb\u00bb\u2666\u2666 \u25a0>\u2022>\u2022>><\nMln.

On Feb. 29 ha\nhad an interview with Gen. Botha,\nwho assured him of his heartiest sympathy In his world-wide work. During\nhis stay at tho Cape he found that\nthere existed a general desire for more\nwhite population In the Union. But at\npresent it was not possible to expect\nthat the government would undertake\nto Inaugurate any immigration policy,\nand If anything wns done in the Union\nof South Africa it must be by privato\neffort. The conditions generally, says\nSir Rider, were such as to rule out tho\nUnion, at any rate at present,' as a\nplace where the British working man\nor ex-private soldier, should seek a\nhome, save in exceptional cases.\nOn April 3 he arrived at Hobart,\nwhere be bad an Interview with the\npremier, and was subsequently invited\nto be present at a mooting of the war\ncouncil, where he set out the views of\ntho institute. Next day the premier\nwrote him a letter, assuring him that\nhe was convinced the Tasmanian government would be glad to provide\nland and organize the settlement of\nat least 300 British soldiers in orcharding and agricultural areas. Six days\nlater Sir Rider arrived at Melbourne\nfrom Tasmania nnd was subsequently\nentertained at luncheon by the premier and members of tho Victorian ministry, where he made a speech which\nwas well received. Thc premier intimated by letter that Victoria was\nprepared to extend to all United Kingdom ex-service men and their families\nthe same advantages as regards land\nsettlement or otherwise as were given\nto returned  Australian soldiers.\nTho premier of New South Wales\nInformed Sir Rider that the power of\nthat state to respond to his proposal\nwas limited by the fact that tho government had for months past been on-\ngaged upon an analogous scheme for\nthe benefit of their returning soldiers.\nWhat thoy proposed In order to meet\nhis purpose was to press more rapidly than was at first contemplated with\nthe irrigation works at. Yanoo. This\nwould enable them lo Increase tho\nnumber pf settlers there by probably\nat least 1000 in tho next two years,\nUnd to that extent they would be prepared to gi\\> preference to British\nsubjects who bad been engaged In tho\nwar, Further, they would treat time-\nexpired Imperial soldiers in all matters of government employment as on\ntho same footing as their own returned men.\nOn his visit to Perth, Sir Rider Haggard was informed by tbo premier that\nthe Intention of the government of\nWestern Australia also was to apply\nto tbe cx-servlce men of the United\nKingdom the same conditions in regard to land settlement as would be\napplied to Australian returned soldiers\nunless offlciul funds were made available exclusively for thc bentfit of the\nlatter.\n(Slovaks, Rumanians, Serbs, Ruth-\nenes and even \u25a0 Germans) under the\ncloak of constitutional liberty, and the\npolicy pursued.by Budapest for years\npast in Croatia, He at the robt of the\nAustro-Serb relations, and steadily\nembittered the.whole Balkan situation\nand led inevitably to a world war.\nEven the bare catalogue of Magyar\npolitical misdeeds would fill columns\nof your space-and-I content myself\nwith recalling a few of the most flagrant incidents\u2014the Agram treason\ntrial, the 'Friedjung forgeries, the infamous elections of 1910, tho Rauch\nand Cuvaj dictatorships, the suspension of the Croatian constitution by\ndecree from Budapest (1912) the abolition of Serbian church autonomy,\nand the suppression.of the Serbian alphabet  on 'Hungarian  soil.\nTho share of Count Tisza and Count\nForgacs  (thc permanent under secre-\nHUNGARY AND THE\nENTENTE POWERS\nLONDON,\u2014In a letter to the press\nIt. W. Solon Watson, the well-known\nauthority on the near east, repudiates\nthe idea that the Magyars are fighting\nin a quarrel not of their making and\nfor a cause which offers them no profit.\nThis war. ho writes, is quite as much\na Magyar war as It is a German war.\nThe gross racial tyranny practised by\ntbo Magyars toward the non-Magyar\nmajority of thc Hungarian population\ntary in the Austro-Hungarian foreign\noffice) in provoking war is too notorious to be denied. What is less widely\nrealized is the fact that the representatives of Austria-Hungary on the eve\nof 'war in Paris, Petrograd, Rome and\nBerlin were all Magyar noblemen, the\nlast of thc four having been made a\ncount for his services to German-Magyar-friendship, and that the Hungarian\nparliament enthusiastically indorsed\ntho declaration of war at a time when\nthe authorities dared not convoke tho\nAustrian parliament, and still favors\nIts vigorous prosecution.\nParty politics apart, Karolyi is entirely at one with Tisza, Andrassy, Ap-\nponyi, Rakovszky and the rest In upholding, the \"Magyar state Idea\" (a\nMagyar allam eszme.) Hungary has\neverything to lose by a German defeat. If we win, Germany, even In ruin\nwill remain a great nation.    But  In\nhte case of Hungary our victory will\nmean the downfall of the corrupt Magyar oligarchy and of its racial hegemony, and tho liberation    of   Croat,\nSerb, Slovak and Rumanian from one\nof  the   most  reactionary  regimes   in\nEurope.\nr*\nWhen Next You Are\nin Vancouver\ncall on us.

Their ear\nnestness in the matter Is shown by\nthe fac.t that .today was the first time\nsince the, initial game against the Phll-\nndelphia Nationals in the series of\n101.\". that the Red Sox have won from\ntheir rivals by a margin or more than\none run.\nTito contest, nit hough featured by\nSeveral sensational plays; did not rise\nmuch above tbe average of a regular\nseason game, once bpoburd swung\ninto form the 1 lodgers found it impossible to push a runner around to the\nplate because of the steady twirling\nof tbe clever box man, who wns-finely\nsupqrted both on the offensive and defensive by lifs teammates.\nLong, slashing hits ripped off the\nbats of the Red Sox to be charged\nagainst tlie account uf Brooklyn's\npitchers, while splendid catches, stops\nand throws made the way ensy for\nLeonard.\nHopes Are Dashed.\nThe Brooklyn club gave its supporters great hopes of repeating tlie victory\nof yesterday when two runs were put\nover In this inning* on Johnston's triple, Myers' single, n base on halls and\nan error by .Iniivrln, who, In bis eagerness to get Myers at the plate fumbled Cut Shaw's grounder. Murtpiard,\nRobinson's selection for a second try\nngulnst tho Bostnns, staved off the\nRed Sox In the initial Inning, bat Gardner took much of tbe mystery out of\nhis delivery when he hammered out a\nhome run, his second in two days,\nwith two on in the succeeding session.\n.Marqiiard walked llobiilzel. the first\nman up. und Lewis advanced him to\nthird with a double to the right field\nwail. Gardner then clean ed .up with\nbis  homer, a   drive to  deep centre.\nThe Red Sox added another run In\ntbe fourth when Lewis singled, went\nto -second on Gardner's sacrifice nnd\nscored on Manager Cardigan's single.\nAnother was added In the fifth when\nCheney, who replaced Mnrqimrd in the\nbox after Pfeffer hud butted for the\nformer, passed Hooper, who stole second and scored on Holilitzel's ttouhlc.\nTbe final run of Hie game came In thc\nseventh, .lanvrin.. second man up,\nforced Hooper, who had singled, went\nto' second on Walker's' sacrifice and\nscored when Huhlitzel grounded lo\nCheney, whose throw to first hit the\nrunner.\nCheney was soon afterward replaced\n\u25a0 Nap Hnelier, one of the greatest of\nsouthpaws when nt the height of his\nureer. Thus it came about that both\nthis veteran pitcher's ambition to work\nin n world's series and the fans\" de-\nIre to see him in that position were\ngratified.

There are. compartment cars for sleeping: dining curs\nwhich resemble those upon the best\nrailroads of tbe t'nited States, and\npumitiltlous attention on%tbe purl of\ntbe officials and railroad employees,\nsuch as is not always forthcoming in\n.North. America.\nThe traveller In Argentina also\nmeets an odd feature in the \"Complaint Book\" which is found at the\nrailroad stations. Passengers are asked to write in these books any complaint which, they may have to make\nagainst the administration of the road\nor Its employees. Argentine passengers are not slow to make use of this\nprivilege, as the love of the Latin temperament to appear In print is well\nknown. Many of tho complaints strike\none as being funny. At times after tbe\nlengthy censure of -some \"\"Indignant\npassenger regarding tlie manners of\na railroad attendant, a fellow passenger will add his word to the effocj\nthat tbe attendant was quite correct\nin his deportment, but that the complainant's manners were deplorable,\nAn Englishman narrates a story of\none written complaint he found in one\nof these books, which read: \"Everything on this road is in perfect order\nand the staff is faultless.\"\nBritish capital hus been poured into\nArgentine railroads to a large extent\nnnd the country is much in debt to\nGreat Britain for many far-reaching\ndevelopments in transportation. There\nis said to be invested at present lu\nArgentine railroads ami electric tramways \u00a3800,000,000 of British capital,\nof the money required to construct the\n\u25a0Ji'.Of'O miles of railroad in this republic. British financiers have furnished approximately '\u25a0> per cent; n per\ncent of the railroad capital is French\nand 4  per cent Argentine.\nThe growth of railroad mileage lias\nbeen as remarkable as the advance\nalong other lines in this modern state.\nBetween the years isr.o and 1860 Argentina hud virtually no railroads,\nsave one line u few mill's in length,\nand for a number of years following il\nwas  necessary  for the* government   to\nmake large biduyements to capitalists\nin order to secure their willingness\nto Invest Money In such projects. The\ncountry was unsettled politically, and\nconditions regarding agricultural development were at that time so Insecure that the risk- Involved was considerable. As an inducement to investors absolute ownership for throe\nmiles on each side of the railroad lino\nwas given.\nDuring the past !!0 years, however,\ntbo rullrond mileage in this progressing country has more than doubled\nand Argentina now ranks second\namong the nations of tbe world lu\nrnilroud mileage per capita of population; United. Stales holding first place\nin  this regard.\nArgentina has copied North American models in her big freight curs us\nwell as In many of the arrangements\nof her passenger trains; indeed, although one will be told frequeiilly,\nespecially by Europeans that the Argentines do not like the \"Yankees,\"\nand will not have anything to do with\nthem unless It is positively necessary,\nIhe manner In which this republic has\ngone to the United States with patterns not only In her railroad transportation, but in scores of her modern improvements, would indicate u\ncloser ussociution between the two\nAmerican republics than is sometimes\nInferred.\nThe government railroads run chief-\nly through scetlons-that. are especially\nsuitable for colonization, and It may\n.be stated thnt these state lines arc\nfrequently failures financially, being\nthe easy prey of political favorltolsm\nand patronage. Like the government\nroads in Chilli, which arc run nt a\nloss despite the heavy freight charges,\ntlie large amount of transportation\nnnd with no dividends to pay. these\nArgentine roads need expert business\nmanagement by men who are Interested in mnking* them .pnty, rather\nlivni in securing fat jobs for their\nconstituents.\nA situation tike this would seem to\nreflect somewhat upon the patriotism\nas well as upon the business sense of\ntbe South American republics, [like\nEcuador. Pern and Argentina, where\nthe railroads are almost exclusively In\nthe hands of foreigners, and one Is\nled to inquire why the South American\nls not Interested In railroad industry,\ndue answer given Is to thc,effect that\nthe Aregniln.es, at least, are not inclined to Invest their money either In\nrailroads of' their own. or in roads\nrun by foreign capital, because of tbe\nfact thnt dividends are limited by law\nto 7 per cent while the Argentine is\nnot interested in Investments less than\n12 per cent, and he is often the recipient of 30 per cent investments in this\nland of bounding prosperity nnd quick\nvalues.\n\u25a0 It is doniitfui, However. If any one\nagency hns done more to put Argentina upon the map of the commercial\nworld ibun here comparatively new\nrailroad systems which have tapped\nthe out-of-tbe-way sections of this\numnning land of \"camps,\" as the great\nfarms arc called down here. The rri.il-\nrouds ai;e now doing for Argentina\nwhat they have been accomplishing\nduring the last '2:> years In East India,\npiercing the remote sections of the\ncountry, bringing people and produce\nto the large eoiist towns and 'forming\ntho civillzei's of thc republic. Alongside of the schools, the rail roads'aro\nmodernising Soutn America, .and especially hore in this ugrieulturftl sec-\ntiork they have caused lands which\nwer useless and desolate desert only\na few years since, to leap In price\nand possibilities, becoming tanglblo\nassets in an agricultural belt as big\n\u2022Jis the entire United States east of the\nMississippi. As one travels on these\nnew roads, passing tbe brand new\nhomsteuds, surrounded by the Inevitable clump of trees which murks niv'\n\"estancla\" as one sees everywhere the\nfreshly cultivated alfalfa, which is the\npiece de insistence in this grazing\nland, and beholds tbe seemingly endless fields of wheat on land that only\na couple of years ago perhaps wus\nwuste pumpa, there Is but ono adequate explanation\u2014the railroad.\nAt .present there is little difficulty\nexperienced In the promulgation of\nnew railways in Argentina, since th\nlandowners are fully awake to the\npriceless blessings of transportation.\nIp the country districts land-Is given\nuway for railway lines, and In many\nbases local contributions aro made by\nthe people as an Inducement for railway investment. The rnen who munuge\nthese roads nre usually llrltlsh and\nthey are well paid, receiving often us\nmuch as $.1^,000 a year for their services.\nIt is said that- one reason at least\nfor giving these men a large salary\nis to place them beyond tbe. temptation of bribes from land-companies and\nsyndicates which would try to Influence the managers to lay down roads\nin accordance with tlie personal and\nlocal requirements of certain sections,\nrather than along the lines of large future development. In railroading us\nin virtually every phase of business,\nin these Latin republics this political\nfavoritism of individuals has hindered much of the native Industrial and\ndevelopmental work of these countries\n.Grunting favors Is carried to the nth\npower In South American. \"You do\nsomething for me and I will in turn\ndo something for you,\"-*is the slogan\nand the public seems to be left largely out of account. Theso states are\ngoing through the process whlclj, has\nnot been absent from North American\npolitics, when a public office has not\nalways been n \"public trust.\" Government offices nre tied to patronage In\na marvellous way and many a man\nwould see little uso of bis elevation\nto official position if he were prevented from using this position for favoring a friend. In return for which he\nwould be sure of obtaining rewards\noften entirely Incommensurate with\nIlls service.\nTbe foreign railway manager wilt\ntell you moreover that. In Argentina\nus on tho west coast of. South America\nthe pnlh of Ihe pioneer is not u bed\nof roses. Foreign promoters are blocked and held up by the government not\nbecause so much because of the suspicion of the benefits to the country\nwhich they feel sure will nccrue. us\nfor purpose of demanding concessions\nfor roads through territory where road\ncannot lie economically profitable tor\nmany years to tbe Investors. There I\nare great delays and Innumerable and\npetty arrangements and formalities to\nbe met,, und tbe man who manages {\na rdthyuy  in, these  ..countries    niustl\nneeds have tho point of view of tbe\n.Latin temperament, infinite patience,\nand sufficient capital behind'him to\nbe able to'bitje hi\"*.time.\nIn spile of' the considerable attention'given to railroading In Argentina,\nthere seems to have been as yet little\npublic sentiment relative to country,\nroads. . The' owners or automobiles\nseem to have been satisfied thus far\nto whirl their high powered expensive\ncars over the glistening muchddiim\nstreets of their wonderful capital,\nBuenos Ayres, and-through tho Immediately adjacent country. In some\nseasons of the year, indeed, and In certain parts of Argentine thero would\nseem to be little need of expending\nmoney to make roads, one may ride\nfor leagues alongside of groat \"es-\ntanclns\" where the country roads on\nthe pampa are like level. floors, and\nexcept for the dust seem as bard and\nusable us any mnn-made boulevard.\nYet in tbe rainy season it is a different story. You will be told of all\nkinds of difficulties in iiuugmlres and\nmud where vehicles currying produce\nto the trains nre frequently stranded.\nIt Is not. an unusual thing to see eight\n\u25a0yoke of oxen tugging away at a heavy\nload of produce, trying to drug it out\nof the seemingly bottonless road.\nThe prospect is goo'd, however, for\nun Improvement, especially in roads\ncbtween the large farms and the railroad stations, for the railway campun-\nles aro being plnced under contract\nby tbe government to construct good\nroads for short distances upon which\ntlie farmers may haul their products\nto tbe trains. There is still a long\nway to go before this country will become a paradise for thc automobilist.\nAmong other things it will be necessary for the people themselves, especially the wealthy clusses, to change\ntheir penchant for spending their\nwealth in.Buenos Ayres and in Europe, securing more of tlie tendency\nseen in the Cnlted Sta.tes to build\ncountry homes and develop the rural\nsections. \"    \u25a0\nTbia Is but a sign of future possibilities in this vast and undeveloped\nArgentine. There arc prairies of\nboundless extent waiting to yield their\nIncrease when manifold more of railway mileage will have pierced its way\nInto the remote sections.\nTROOPS ON WESTERN FRONT\nBERLIN, Germany\u2014The following\nofficial statement has been issued to\ntbe Germun press through the Wolff\nbureau: The French wireless asserts\nthat   the  Germans  Ijiave  employed   40\nMADE 1M CANADA\n AR\n16 eta. each, 6 for 90 ot*.

Disorders caused\nIiy the hungry masses have occurred\nbefore shops containing foodstuffs and\nthose responsible for the slate of\nthings have no other remedy for the\nhungry masses than a state of siege\npolico swords and  military patrols.\n\"Chancellor von Belhmunn-Holhvog\nblames England for tlie evils at present\nexisting in Germany and advocates a\ncontinuance of the war to the bitter\nend, aa well as the supporters of the\ngovernment, who repeat this praltkv\n\"Nevertheless the German government must have known,that this state\nof tilings was bound to come about.\nWar against Russia, France and Kngland was bound to lead to\" the Isolation of Germany, our war piukers lament that our degenerate enemies have\nblockaded ns, lint why pursue such a\ncourse of politics that would Inevitably  lead to a  blockade?\nFatten on Misery.\n\"This criminal provocation of a\nworld war was followed by further\n.dundors. Tho government has done\nnothing to prevent the present, starvation of the masses. Why it has done\nnothing is because till? government\nclique of capitalists, junkers and speculators in foodstuffs do not suffer as\ntho musses of ihe people. On the contrary they grow richer through the\nhunger of the people.\n\"If from the outset of the war serious measures bad been taken to pro-\nvent hunger and misery, the gravity\nof the situation would have* been revealed to the blockaded masses and\nthis enthusiasm for war would soon\nhave cooled. Meanwhile the masses of\nthe people were benumbed by victories\nami triumphs, although all the time\nthey were being delivered Into the\nhands of the agrarian and eapitapsl\nfood exploiters. Thc attempt was niade\nto cause tbe masses to lose their cool\ncommon sense.

Germany\u2014The number of\nassociations formed in Germany In\nconnection with the formulation of the\nterms of peace threaten to multiply\nindefinitely. Following upon the foundation of the German national committee and the Institution of the Independent eommltteo for a German\npence in opposition to It, a number of\nmen and women now announce that\nthey have formed a third organization\nto be known as tho Central International Law association. Its objective Is\ndescribed as a durnble peaco on tho\nbasis of the right of peoples to decide ihelr own destiny, and the Introduction of a new policy of reconciliation.\nThe peace that ends this war, runs\ntho new association's manifesto to tbo\npublic, must of course secure tbo Independence of the German Empire, the\nIntegrity of Germun soil, the safeguard\ning of German Interests abroad, and\nthe maintenance of the Gorman people's possibility ot economic development; but It must also contain every\nguarantee of durability. To that end\nit is essential that it should be recognizable by al concerned as a satisfactory adjustment of their international\nrelations; hence it must not force the\ndefeated side Into a war of reprisals\niiy violent annexations, or by an invasion of their right lo choose their '\u25a0\u25a0\nown form of government, and it must :\nput an end to the obi dangerous policy\nof a race of armaments. In order to\ngive such a peaco full effect a new\nanimus must fill national and international  life.\nTho Centrnl German International\nLaw association Is convinced that tho\nnecesHary conditions for this new\npolicy prevail among tbe German as\namong all other cultural peoples, and\nthat such a peace would be the \"Gel*.\nman\" peaco in the best sense of the\nword.\nThe manifesto adds that branches\nof the association nre established, or\nare helng established, throughout the\nempire, and that a public propaganda\nwll be set afoot so soon ns tho free\ndiscussion of war and peace alms is\npermitted.

The  injured child was attended by Drs. Rose\nUnd Hartln, who found it necessary to\namputate the leg below tho knee.   It\nls expected that he will recover.\nThe   accident    occurred    at    2:10\no'clock in the afternoon as tho car In\ncharge of Motormnn George W. Hall\nand Conductor H. B. Bellls was about\nto cross Ward  street to  its  stopping\nplace  on  tbo  opposite  corner.    Mrs.\nMcLeod  and  her  two  children were\nleaving the- hotel   to   catch   thc   car\nwhen the little fellow ran out into the\nroad toward it and as tho front end\npassed him, stumbled and fell between\nthe   trucks,  tho  rear wheels   passing\nover his foot and leg.\nHis  father Immediately   ran   from\nthe hotel and carried him to the office\nof   Drs.   Rose  and   Hartln,   where   he\nwas attended by Dr. Rose and afterwards removed to the Kootenay Lake\nGeneral hospital, where the operation\nwas performed later In the afternoon.\nMotorman  Hall stated that his car\nwas moving at about   six   miles   an\nhour and was within a few yards of fefficiency   and   soldierliness    of   tho\noriental    recruits    lo    the    Canadian\n\u25a0forces, he said.\nPte.

Hoyakawa stated that a number of his countrymen were In the\nranks of the Canndlan overseas forces\nat the front, while still more were in\ntraining in various parts of Canada.\nForty-ono Japanese, he said, had gone\nto the front with the 13th overseas\nmounted rifles from Canada, which\nunit had since been used as reinforcements to the Princess Pats. Fifty-six\nmore, he stated, were at present training with the 176th and 50 with the\n192nd.\nMany of these men, he said, wero\nold soldiers who had received their\nmilitary training in tho schools of\nJapan nnd in the regular army of that\ncountry during the wur with Russia.\nHe himself has not seen active ser\nvice, as he was too young to go to the\nfront In the Russia war. Many fav\norablc comments had been passed by\ncommanding officers on tbe smartness\nthe corner of Ward street when he\nsaw the little boy run out into the\nroad toward his car, but that when\nthe vestibule passed him thero was a\ngood eight feet between him and tho\ncar. Ho anticipated no danger, as tho\nchild, he said, was at the side of the\ncar and not In front, of it. He was\nquite used to seeing the little chap\nplaying on the sidewalk and in the\nroad outside his father's hotel. The\nfirst intimation he had that an accident occurred was when he felt the\njar caused by the wheels passing over\nthe boy's foot and beard his screams\nof pain.
