C, Friday, August 18, 1911.\n$1.00 Per\nMost Enterprising Fruit Grower of tiie Valley Endorses Reciprocity\n7ii the Editor, of The Sun.\nIn answer lo the article headed\n\"'Thf Issue Hefore the People,\" in\nthe Gazette of August ,i:\nIt does not look right to tiring on\nthe elections hefore redistribution, as\nit dues not givet,he Wesl H luir representation with the Enst. And\nwhen we take into consideration\nthat Manitoba, Alberta and Saskatchewan had a great deal to do\n; wilh the steps the Laurier government took in the reciprocity deal, I\ndo not think it i\u00ab giving the West a\nfair deal to deprive us ol ahout one-\nthird tbe represents tion we would\nhave had if the elections were postponed until after redistribution.\nThis does not Ictok to be good than-\naueuient ou Laurier's part, for 1 feel\ntlure that reciprocity will get a\nstronger support in the three above-\nmentioned provinces than in any\nother part of the Dominion. Why did\nLsurier yield to the Conservatives to\nhave the election sprung on tbe people before redistribution? The writer\nsaVs \"some preliminary business in\nthe way of providing .money for the\nadministration would have taken a\ncouple of weeks; bnt they found this\ncould be dispensed with.\" This gives\na person an idea of how long our\nrepresentatives can spend over a\nlittle thing, and how quickly they\ncan dispense witb it if is to further\ntheir own ends.\nThe writer says \"no doubt the\ncampaign will be tempestuous, but\nthere is no reason why it should not\nhe courteous.\" YeB, it will be\nciiurteous enough witb the interests)\nbut they are capable of stooping low\n-enough to cry disloyalty and annexation in order to keep the masses\nlighting until they accomplish their\nwork. How can we have a loyal\npeople and a dissatisfied people! If\ntbe people want reciprocity they\nshould have it; and they will have\nit they do tbeir own thinking\nThe interests that are raising\nsuch a loud cry about loyalty know\nthat Canadians are loyal, and tbat\nif tbey cun make the people belieye\nthat reciprocity will have a tendency\ntoward annexation tbey run a chance\nof defeating reciprocity, whicb will\ngive them lour more years' control\nover part ol the sweat of the laborers' and producers' brows.\nThere is no one who can dispute\nbut that the Canadians are loyal;\nbut if they have to labor much\nlonger under the pmsent restrictions,\ncombines and monopolies the interests will soon find put that they\nare not so loyal. There is no reason\nwhy Canadians should not be loyal.\nWe h.tye one of the richestcountries\nunder the sun; and Canada has\nprospered even under restrictions,\nand stolen privileges by the interests.\n\"Shall Canada enter into reciprocal trade with the United States or\nnot?\" Well, Mr. Burrell quotes\nPresident Taft's statement that we\nare \"al the parting of the ways.\"\n1 agree with Mr. Taft. We are \"at\nthe parting o{ the ways\" It has\nbeen the \"ways\" of the masses to\nlisten to the dictations of the bosses.\nThey are beginning to realize that\nthey were born with just as much\nbrains as tbe men who hold high\npositions in governments, if they\nonly use them; and if there ever\nwaB aa time when the masses\nshould do their own thinking it is\nnow.\nThe elements opposing reciprocity\nwill oot be injured it the pact is\nralifi<*ds but they are afraid that il\nwill lead to free trade, and not to\nnnnexatiou, as they try to make the\npeople believe. They say it is\nnational obligation to vote against\nreciprocity. It is not; but it ia an\nobligation of all bread earners and\nall interested in bread earners to\nvote against tariff restrieiimis, whirl\nencourage combines and inonopulii-i\nthat are a detriment to all bread\n, *.\nproducers.\nThey want to know if the in\ncreased prosperity which reciprocity\nmay bring to Canada will repay us\nfor becoming Americanized. Di\nnot think that a person making such\ni state-iient is more liable to be dis\nloyal than the person who is in fa\nvor of reciprocity? He is certainly\nnot loyal to the laborer or the pro\nlineal*) and who but these have made\nCanada?\nTbey say reciprocity will obstruct\nthe financial fabric of our country.\nI agree with them here. It will cer\nlainly put more money in the poc\nkets of the bread earners and less in\nihe pockets of the privileged class.\n\u2022Yes, we have great transcontinental\nrailways and great cities, iu wnich\ngreat wealth haa accumulated in the\nhands of the privileged class, which\nis today being used to oppose reciprocity, and against the masses who\nproduced it.\nMr. Burrell says they did no\nmake any serious Attempt to meet\nlhi_! demand of the Wesst for redis;\ntribntion. It is quite .natural that\nthe Conservatives did not want re\ndistribution, before the election. But\nwby could not Laurier have dropped\ntbe reciprocity question and gone\non-with the business of the session!\nWe have lived under the restrictions\nof the tariff for thirty years. Suiely\nwe could bave stood ita few months\nlonger, thereby giving the West a\nfair representation in the bouse.\nNow tbe West will have lo put up\nwilh a governmeut for the next four\nor five years with about one-third\nless representation than we are en\ntitled. Would it not have been\nmore satisfactory to the people to\nhave had a chance to say yes or no\non recipsocityl If I want reciprocity\n[ have to vote for the man tbe Lib\neral party brings out, aud all parly\nmen have got to\u2014or are supposed\nto\u2014uphold what the party bosses\ntell them. If tbey are not men of\nthis stamp they would not get the\njob, or could nol hold it if they did\nget it. Even supposing he is of the\nrubber-stamp lype, I bave got to\nvote for him. And if the government is sustained on this question,\ntbe members will have practically a\nfree hand to do hs tbey please with\nthe affairs of the country for the\nnext four or live years. They can\nbuild the Hudson Bay railway and\nturn il over to Mackenzie & Maun,\ninstead of giving all railroads equal\nrunning rights over it. It may be\ntbe object of tbe bosses lo work it so\nthat the masses will bavu.as'little to\nsay as possible. What we want, in\nmy opinion, is the referendum on\nnil important questions, and also\nthe recall. We want the natural resources protected for the benefit of,\nCanadians, and not for seekers after!\nspecial privileges. It is tbrough la-\nbur out of the natural resources that\nall wealth is created. Why should\nwe have a government tbat will allow private interests to get control\nofthe natural resources and use la-\nboi to accumulate great wealth, j\nwhioh today is being used to work\n'midships on the masses? Do we\niviint Canada to drift on to the conditions that today prevail in the\n'United States, where a few men by\npulling tbeir heads together ean tie\nup tbe linaneiiil affairs of the conn-\ntry and thereby cripple all industry!\nI'nder the present conditions the\np\u00bbople. have very little power to do\nanything towards government reform. The present government is\nmuch like a wheel. Tbey put in a\nConservative spoke bere and a Libera) spoke there, but the bub is all\none, and the axel is greased witb the\nsweat off the laborer's brow. Now\nyou may take from my idea of\ngovernment affairs that I am ln favor of putting a stop to tbe present\ncondition of government all at once,\nan impression thrown out by many\nSocialists. But this is nol so, and it\nis not real Socialism, either. No\nlindy is to blame for existing eondi-\nt ons but the people. Thi-y ha-e\nlistened to the smooth talk of the\npolished politician instead of .doing\niheir own thinking. I think a lot\nof people who talk so radically\nagainst capital would be just tbe\nsame as the capitalist if tbey were\nin the same position. If capital has\ntaken advantage of lahor, it is not\nSocialistic principles for the laborer\nto take advantage of capital if he\nhad the power to do so. But capital has taken edvautage of labor,\nand if the masses do not get some\nmeasure of relief at the polls, the\nday is not far distant when they will\nfind some other way of obtaining it.\nNow, reciprocity is the only iijsue\nhefore the people in Ibis election\nand I might want ever so badly to\nvote for the Conservative candidate,\nbut I can't do il and say I wan'\nreciprocity, when ii is the only issue\nhefore the people. Wby could we\nuot have a eliaoce to say yes or no\non reciprocity independent of party\npolitics? Oh, no; that would be\ngiving the people too much liberty\nat the polls. I am sure if the majority of people said they wanted\nreciprocity, how could Mr. Borden\nrefuse to grant it, supposing the\nLaurier government was defeated.\nMr. Burrell thinks be has a strong\ntalking point against reciprocity in\nregard to tbe fruit industry. I suppose I can be classed among the\nlargest individual fruit growers iu\nBritish Columbia. If I can'l grow\nfruit and compete with my neighbor across the line, I will do something else; and I am not a Canadian\nof much use if 1 am not willing to\ntry to compete with him. Un the\notber hand, would it not be selfish\nof me to waul to see conditions re\ntuined whereby 1 can take advantage of my fellow-producer to the j\nextent of 20 cents per box ou up-\n>les? Bui this argument does not\nbold good, for wn get better prices\nfor our fruit iu foreign markets, than\nwe gel in our home market. In thu\noutside market we compete with lbe\nworld; in tbe home market we are\nprotected to the extent of 20 cent's\nper box. That is a nice way to use\nour home consumers] If Canada\nwas an importer of natural products\nwe would benefit tbe producer of\nnatural products by charging a duly\non tbe importations of tbe same, to\ntho disadvantage of our consumers.\nNow, when we are exporters of nut\nural products, is it not to our advantage to have all barriers removed\nthat tend to limit our markets)\nIf you want to do away with\nsome of the conditions that help to\n\u25a0 make millionaires at the expense of 5; Hope, 4; San Poil Consolidated,\nthe producer, vote for reoiprcoi'.y. j Hj Knob Hill, 20; Ben-Hur, 10;\nIf you want to let the BUecjal in-; Insurgent, 15; total, 100 carloads,\nterests know that the people are do- The gross value of the ore in caring a little more, of their own think- load quantities ranged from $1)00\ning, vote for reciprocity. to 86500, while the average was\nIf you want to let the government probably much in excess of 81000 to\nknow that yon want to do away the car.\nwith spreial privileges, vote for reci- j\nprocity.\n11 yon don't want to encourage\nselfish I'rnicipleB, vole for reciprocity.\nIL you want free access to the\nbest markets of the world, vole for\nleciprocuy, and let the interests\nknow that we are at the parting of\nthe ways\u2014I mean ut the parting of\nthe ways between tbe interests' rule\nand the rule of the people.\nnot make any difference to Canadians what President Taft means by\nthe parting of the ways, or what\nMr. Burrell thinks he means.

Will you please go on with\nyour story?\"\n'\"Where was 1?\" Evors asked. \"Oh,\nyes, I was just leading up to the\ntime when 1 accompanied your father\non his last fatal journey to the mine.\nAt one time I understand it was his\nintention to take with him the Dutchman Van Fort, or your mother's bro-\nlhe only thing tliat puzsles me is why j ther, Mark Fenwick.

Beyond\ndoubt, these men were doing something illicit with the coinage of the\ncountry, though Vera, could not bring\nherself to believe that they were\npassing off counterfeit money, seeing\nthat the sovereigns were absolutely\ngenuine.\n\"Well, something has got to be\ndone,\" another of the gang remarked. \"We are bound to have a few\nthousands during the next few days,\nand us Blossett says, there is nobody can work the oracle as well as\nhe can. The best thing I can do is\nto go to town with him and keep a\nclose eye on him till he has pulled\nround once more. He can keep\nsober enough on occasions if he likes\nand once the drinking fit has passed\nhe may be right for weeks.\"\n\"I am going te have no one with\nme,\" Blossett roared. \"Do you think\nI am going to be treated like a blooming kid? I tell you, I am the best\nman of the lot of you. There isn't\none of you can hold a candle to me.\nFenwick, with all his cunning, is a\nchild compared with Ned Blossett.\nAsk any of the old gang In New York,\nask the blistering police, if you like.\nAnd as to the rest of you, who are\nyou? A set of white faced mechanics\nwithout pluck enough to rob a hen\nroost. Take that, you cur!\"\nThe speaker rose suddenly to his\nfeet and lurched across the room in\nFenwick's direction. He aimed an\nunexpected blow at the latter which\nsent him headlong to the floor, and\nimmediately the whole room was a\nscene of angry violence.\nVera shrank baek in her shelter,\nhardly knowing what to do next.\nShe saw that Blossett had disengaged himself from the mob about\nhim and was making his way headlong into the conservatory. There\nwas nothing for it but instant retreat.\nOn the opposite side was a doorway\nleading to the garden, and through\nthis Vera hastily slipped and darted\nacross the grass, conscious of the\nnoise and struggle going on behind.\nShe paused with a little cry ot vexation as she came close to a man\nwho was standing on the edge of the\nlawn looking at the house. It was\nonly for a moment that she stood\nthere in doubt, then a glad cry broke\nfrom her lips.\n\"Charles, she said. \"Mr. Evors,\nwhat are you doing here?\"\n\"We will come to that presently,\"\nEvors replied. \"Meanwhile you can\nbe observed from where you are,\nand those rioters yonder may make\nit awkward for you. When they have\npatched up their quarrel, I will return to the house with you and explain. We can get in by the little\ngreen door behind the gun room.\"\nVera suffered herself to led away\nfeeling now utterly unable to be astonished at anything. They came at\nlength to the secluded side of the\nhouse, where the girl paused and\nlooked at Tier companion for an explanation.\n\"You seem to be strangely familiar\nwith this place,\" she said. \"You\nwalk about here in the dark as if\nyou had known this house all your\nlife time. Have you been here before?\"\n\"Many a time,\" Evors Teplied\nsadly. \"Up to the lime 1 was twenty\nmy happiest years were spent here.\nBut I see you are still in the dark.\nCannot you guess who I really am,\nVera? No? Then I will enlighten\nyou. My name is Charles Evors,\nnnd I am the only son of tod Merton. I was bom here, nnd if the\nFates are good to\nhope to die here.\"\nme, some day I\nCHAPTER XXI.\nTha Third Finger\nVera ought te have experienced a\nfeeling of deepest surprise, hut she\nwas long past, any emotion of that\nkind. On the contrary, it seemed\nquite natural that Evors should be\nthere tilling her this extraordinary\nthing. The sounds of strife and tumult in the house hnd now died away:\napparently the men iu the billiard\nroom had patched up their quarrel,\nfor nothing more could be heard save\na sudden pop which sounded like the\nwithdrawal of n cork. With a gesture\nof contempt Evors pointed to the\nbilliard room window.\n\"I don't think you need worry\nabout them,\" he said. \"As fur as\nI can judge they were hound to come\nto some truce.\"\n\"But do you know whnt they were\ndoing?\" Vera asked.\n\"I haven't the remotest idea,\" Evors replied. \"Some rascality, beyond\nquestion. There is always rascality\nwbere Fenwick is concerned, Is It\nnot strange that 1 should come down\nhere and And that fellow settled in\nthe home of my uncestors.\"\n\"Then you did not come down on\npurpose to see him?\"\n\"No, I came here entirely on my\nown responsibility. If you have half\nan hour to spnre, and you think it\nquite safe, I will tell you everything.\nto tell you,\" Evors went on. \"It is\na strange story and one which, if\nyou read it in the pages of a book,\nyou would be inclined to discredit\nentirely. And yet stranger things\nhappen every day.\"\nlivors led the way to a secluded\npath beside the terrace.\n\"You need not worry about getting\nto the house,\" he said. \"1 can show\nyou how te manage that at any time\nof the day or nignt without disturbing anybody. 1 am afraid that on\nmany occasions I put my knowledge\nto an improper use and that was the\nbeginning of my downfall. What will\nyou say to me when I confess that\nwhen 1 came out te Mexico I was\ndriven out of the old country, more\nor less, like a criminal?\"\n\"I understood you to be a little\nwild,\" Vera said.\n\"A little wild;\" Evors echoed bitterly. \"1 behaved in a perfectly disgraceful fashion. I degraded the old\nname, I made it a byword in the district. As sure as I am standing here\nI am more or less responsible for my\nmother's death. It is a strange thing\nwith us Evors that all the men begin\nin this way. I suppose it is some\ntaint in our blood. Up to the age of\nfive and twenty, we have always been\nmore like devils than men, and tben,\nfor the most part, we have settled\ndown to wipe out the past and become respectable members of society.\nI think my father recognized that,\nthough he was exceedingly hard and\nstern with me. Finally, after one\nmore unusually disgraceful episode\nhe turned me out of the house, and\nsaid he hoped never to look upon my\nface again. I was deeply in debt, I\nhad not a penny that I could call my\nown, and finally, I drifted out to\nMexico with the assistance of a boon\ncompanion. On the way out I took\na solemn oath that I would do my\nbest to redeem the past. I felt heartily ashamed of my evil ways; and for\nsix months no one could possibly\nhave led a purer and better life than\nmyself. It was about this time that\nI became acquainted with your fatlur\nand your sister Beth.\"\nEvors paused a moment and paced\nup and down the avenue with Vera\nby his side. She saw that he was\ndisturbed about something, so she\ndeemed it best not to interrupt him.\n\"It was like getting back to a better world again,\" Evors went on. \"I\nbelieved that I had conquered myself; I felt pretty sure of it, or I\nwould never have encouraged the\nfriendship with your sister, which\nshe offered me from the first. I don't\nknow how it was or why it was that\nI did not see much of you ubout that\ntime, but you were not in the mountains with the others.''\n\"I was down in the city,\" Vera\nexplained. \"There was a friend of\nmine who had a long serious illness\nand I was engaged in nursing her.\nThat is the reason.\"\n\"But it doesn't much matter,\" Evors went on. \"You were not there\nto watch my friendship for Beth ripening into a warmer and deeper feeling. Mind you, she had not the remotest idea who I really was, nor had\nyour father. They were quite content\nto take me on trust, they had no\nvulgar curiosity as to my past. And\nthen the time came when Beth discovered what my feelings were, and\nI knew that she had given her heart\nto me. I had not intended to speak,\nI -had sternly schooled myself to\nhold my tongue until I had completed my probation; but one never\nknows how these things come about. It\nwas all so spontaneous, so unexpected\u2014and before I knew what had\nreally happened, we were engaged.\nIt was the happiest time of my life.\nI had rid myself of all my bad habits.\nI was in the full flush and vigor of\nmy manhood. I did-not say anything\nto lii-tli about the past, because I\nfelt that she would not understand,\nhut I told ynur father pretty nearly\neverything except who i really was,\nfor I hnd made up my mind not to\ntnk\" the old nnme ngnin until I hnd\nreally earned the right te do so. Of\ncourse, the nnme of Evors conveyed\nno Impression to anybody. It did not\nImply Hint I wns heir to Lord Merton. Your father wns intensely friend-\nlv nnd sympathetic, he seemed to understand exactly. We became more\nthan friends, nnd this is how it\nenme about that I accompanied him\nfinally on one of his secret visits to\nthe Four Finger Mine. Your father's\nkept Van Fort and Fenwick out pf\nit, for I distrusted both these men,\nand I believed they would have been\nguilty of any crime to learn the secret of the mine. Your father, always trustful and confiding, laughed\nat my fears, and we started on that\nfateful journey. I don't want to harrow your feelings, or describe in detail how your father died; but he\nwas foully murdered, and the murder\nwas accomplished either by the\nDutchman or Fenwick, or between\nthe two of them. Zary mysteriously\nvanished about the -same time, and\nthere was no one to back me up in\nmy story. You may judge of my horror and surprise a little later when\nVan Fort and Fenwick entered into a\ndeliberate conspiracy to prove that I\nwas responsible for your father's\ndeath. They laid their plans with\nsuch a diabolical ingenuity that, had\nI been placed upon my trial at that\ntime, I should have been hanged to\na certainty. They even went so far\nas to tell Beth what had happened,\nwith what result upon her mind you\nknow. At this time Van Fort disappeared and wns never heard of\nagain. Of the strange weird ven.\ngeance which followed him I will\ntalk another time. I suppose I lost\nmy nerve utterly, for I became as\nclay in the hands of Mark Fenwick.\nBadly as be wns trenting me, he\nprofessed to be my friend, and assured me he had found a way by\nwhich I could escape from the death\nwhich threatened me. Goodness only\nknows what he bnd in hiB mind;\nperhaps he wanted to part Beth and\nmyself and get all your father's\nmoney into his hands. I suppose he\nreckoned without your brother, although the latter did not count for\nmuch just then, seeing that he was\nin the hospital at Vera Cram., hovering between life and death as a result of his accident. For my own\npart I never believed it was an accident at nil. I believed that Ten-\nwick engineered the whole business.\nBut that is all by the way. Like the\nweak fool that I was, 1 fell in with\nFenwick's suggestion and allowed\nmyself to become a veritable tool in\nhis hands, but I did not go till I\nheard thst you had come back again\nto look after Beth.\"\nVera recollected the time perfectly;\nshe was following Evors* narrative\nwith breathless interest. How well\nshe recollected the day of her own\nmarriage and the receipt of that\ndreadful letter, which parted Gerald\nand herself on the very steps of the\naltar, and transformed her life from\none of happiness into one of absolute self-sacrifice. She was beginning to see daylight now, she was beginning to discern the way at length\nby which she could defy Fenwick and\npart with him\/for all time.\n\"It is getting quite plain now,\"\nshe said. \"But please go on. You\ncannot think how deeply I am interested: Presently I will tell you\nmy side of the story. How I came\nto part with Beth, how I placed her\nin my brother's hands, how I elected\nto remain with Mark Fenwick, and\nmy reasons for so doing. I may say\nthat one of my principal reasons\nfor staying with my uncle was to\ndiscover the real cause of my father's death. That you had anything\nto do with it I never really believed,\nthough appearances were terribly\nagainst you, and you deliberately\nelected to make then look worse.\nBut we need not go into that now.\nWhnt hnppened to you after you fled\nfrom Mexico?\"\nI am very much afraid that I\ndropped hack into the old habits,\"\nEvors said, contritely. \"I wns reckless nnd desperate and cared nothing\nfor anybody.

The\ncompany did not merely remain a\ncommon carrier\u2014it become more\u2014a\ndeveloper and Empire builder\u2014and\nso potent a factor in filling the wants\nof otbers aB well as the vast army\nof travellers that both on land and\nsea the C.P.R. today is a name to\nconjure with. From comparatively\nsmall beginnings, as' seen by twentieth century eyes, it has developed\ninto a world encircling institution\nwith magnificent fleets on ocean and\nInland waters\u2014an immigration agency that has peopled half a continent, even to furnishing ready-made\nhomes to the home seekers\u2014a forceful factor in the development of mines\nsnd mining\u2014an inaugurator of huge\nirrigation works where thousands are\nemployed in building its rolling\nstock, has its own telegraph and express services that reach everywhere,\nand a chain of palatial hotels to\ncomfortably house those who travel,\nand it even employs Swiss guides to\npilot daring mountaineers to dizzy\nheights and runs sanitariums and\nsummer resorts where the pleasure\nseeker may holiday and the health\nof the invalid be restored. Its record fully justifies the name happily\nbestowed upon it by an eminent\nEuropean \u2014 \"Providence Incorporated.\"\nA few figures will give some idea\nof the greatness of its growth:\u2014\nThe total earnings in 1886 were a\nlittle over $10,000,000, and the net\nearnings less than $4,000,000, the surplus after deducting fixed charges being $653,444. This year's gross earnings will probably be over $104,000.-\n000 and the net earnings about $37,-\n000,000. The mileage then was 4,651\nmiles; today it Is, including controlled\nlinen, about 15,500 miles, The number of passengers then carried was\n1,899,319 and the tons of freight aggregated 2,046,195. The approximate\nfigures for the past twelve months\nare over 13,000,000 passengers, and\n21,350,000 tons of freight. A comparison of the figures shows that a considerable reduction in the rates has\ntaken place .In 1886 the average\nearnings per passenger per mile was\n2.10 cents and freight, averaged 1.10\ncents per ton per mile. Today the\nfigures are for passengers 1.93 cents\nper mile and for freight 0.800 oents\nper ton per mile. A comparison of\nthe equipment then and today shows\nhow the company has kept pace with\nthe requirements of the traffic:\u2014\n1886. 1911.\nLocomotives 872 1.629\nFirst and second class\npassenger cars and\ncolonist and baggage\ncars 304 1,757\nFirst-class sleeping and\ndining cars 47 311\nParlor, official and paymaster cars 27 63\nFreight and cattle cars 8,523 50.863\nConductors vans 178 880\nBoarding, tool and auxiliary cars 71 3,684\nStill more marked is the increase in\nthe marine department. In 1886 the\nCP.R. fleet consisted of two steamers on the Great Lakes. Today, it\nhas fleets on many waters. Its red\nand white checkered house flag floats\nover sixteen Atlantic liners, four\nPacific liners, twenty-two steamers\non the Pacific Coast service, five on\nthe Great Lakes service, twenty-two\non tbe inland waters of British Columbia, and two in the ferry service\non the Detroit river\u2014a total of 71\nvessels\u2014and this number will be increased by the building of several\nnew steamships for the ocean service\nand by the acquisition of the Dominion Atlantic railway and its\nsteamships.\nThere seems to be no finality to the\ncompany's work. In addition to the\nlarge original cost of the railway and\nequipment hundreda of millions of\ndollara hsve been expended on improvements such as double trscking,\nreduction of grades, curves eliminated, replacing wooden bridges with\nsteel structures, erecting new stations\nand enlarging old ones, etc., and the\npolicy of extending brairch lines\nwherever needed is still being vigorously pursued.\nIn one way only has the* C.P.R. remained \"as it was,\" and that is in\nthe retention of the services of officials and employees. It is practically manned today as it was a quarter of a century ago, with, of course,\ntbe addition of many thousands required by the expansion of the road.\nThe total number employed now\nreaches 80,000 and these are stationed\nin almost every civilized country on\ntbe face of the earth. There was no\npension fund in 1886, for none was\nneeded. Today there are over 500 of\nthe old faithful workers on the pension roll, none of whom receive less\nthan $20 a month\u2014a positive contradiction of the proverbial saying that\ncorporations have no souls.\nAll this show that the Canadian\nPacific is, as stated, more than a\ntransportation company in the generally accepted sense of the term. It\nis an Empire builder and Its name\nwill ever be remembered as the\ncreator of Western Canada and a\ngreat developing factor wherever its\nlines penetrate.\nThere was once a time when the\nstruggles of armies resulted in the\nsurvival of the fittest, when the race\nwas indeed to the swift and the battle to tbe strong.

Particularly!\nwould the results'of the Beef Trust\nregime be dire to Western Canada.\nThe history of the Beef Trust in the\nUnited States law courts shows that\n\"the big six\" packing companies of\nChicago have almost entire control of\nthe producing regions of the Western\nStates.\nThe United States Beef Trust is\nmade up of the following firms: Armour & Co., Swift & Co., Morris &\nCo., including the Fairbanks Canning\nCo., the National Packing Company,\nunder the joint management of Armours, Swifts and Morris'; Swurz-\nchild & Sulzberger and Cudahy &\nCo. Tbe main interests, \"the big\nsix,\" as they are called, control 72\nsubsidiary packing companies, and\nthese 72 tentacles stretch over the\nlength and breadth of the United\nStates, feeding on the fat of the land\nand crushing out life wherever it is\nconvenient.\nNearly every year the Bee'f Trust\nis brought into court for breaking the\nSherman anti-trust aw. There is a\ncase in progress now in the District\nCourt at Chicago against the Beef\nTrust for having been accused of being an illegal combination in. restraint\nof trade. It is said the Beef Trust\nknows no law. In previous esses evidence has shown that 98 per cent,\nof all the cattle killed in leading\nwestern centres were slaughtered by\nthe Trust, which it was also shown\ncontrolled 75 per cent, of the meat\ntrade in New York, 85 per cent, in\nBoston, 85 per cent, in Providence,\nand in a number of other important\noities from 50 to 90 per cent.\nIn view of this indisputable evidence, it is not difficult to understand\nthe depleted condition of the rural\ndistricts of the Eastern States. Note\nthat 95 per cent, of the raw supply\nin the West is killed by the Trust,\nwhich also controls from 50 to 95 per\ncent, of the meat trade in the large\neastern cities. The Beef Trust has\nthus robbed the Eastern farmer of his\nrightful heritage, the home market\nin the adjacent large industrial centres, The west and the East have\nbeen bound together in the tight\ngrasp of two tentacles, which have\nshot out greedily from the huge central body at Chicago. If but another\ntentacle could be extended northward\nand coiled around the producing regions of Canada, what rich blood\ncould be sucked into the heart of\nthis massive creature.\nThe Beef Trust exerts its enormous\ncontrol by getting hold of the railroads and then monopolizing sources\nof raw supply. President Ripley, of\nthe Santa Fe Railroad, in 1905, hefore\nthe Insterstate Commerce Commission\nsaid: \"The packing house business\ntoday is concentrated in so few hands\nthat this fact, together with the keen\ncompetition between railroads, prac\ntically makes it possible for them to\ndictate rates for dressed beef and\npacking house products.\" The Beef\nTrust each day ships out of Chicago\n600 cars of packing house products.\nArmours alone control over a dozen\ncar lines; tbey own over 14,000 refrigerator cars representing an investment of $14,000,000 and the owners of these cars besides enjoying\nspecial rates, also draw a rental from\nthe railroads for every one of these\ncars than run over their lines. Swift\n& Co. for the fiscal year ending\nJanuary, 1909, did $240,000,000 worth\nof business. The largest Canadian\npacking house does a business of\nahout $5,000,000 a year. Put both\nconcerns on a free nlarket; would it\nbe a fair deal?\nDressed meats and meat products of\ndifferent kinds came into Canada\nfrom the United States last year,\nending March, 1911, to the extent of\nover $3,000,000. The great proportion\nof these imports came from the Beef\nTrust and in face of the duties.

Some\nof the Tories in this city are- making\nthe biiizen cluim that Martin Burrell obtained the grant for our nen\npostoffice. Mr. Burrell had no more\nto do with securing the appropia-\ntion than the Sultan of Sulu. Thai\npart of the work .was performed bv\nuur former Liberal memher, Duncan. The only connection Mr Bur\nrell has had with matter was an attempt tu have the locatiun of the\nbuilding changed to another section\nof the city; but he did not have suf\nficient influence with the govern\ntnent tu carry the scheme through.\nIt is fortunate that he failed, because\nif he hnd succeeded the work would\nhave been hung up indefinitely.\nThe only issue in this campaign\nis reciprocity. The Tory papers\nnre floundering all around the subject like a fish out uf thejvater.\nThey never get within speaking dis-\ntince of the real' question, because\nihey knuw the people are overwhelmingly in favor of a larger\nmarket and a lower cost uf living.\nSome of them are yet harping on\nthe annexation bogey. The man\nwhu believes' that reciprocity will\nbring annexation needs a better\ndrainage system for hiB hend,\nin urder to draw of! snme of the stagnant water un his brnin. Others\nhave descended tu personsl abuse uf\nSir Wilfrid Laurier. Fur this class\nof scribblers we hnve nothing but\ncontempt. They are not worthy\ntu black the prime minister's boots.\nSir Wilfrid is the most eminent\nstatesman nn the American conti\nnent today. He hus mnde a prosperous mil inn uut nf Canada, and\nia now endeavoring tn perpetuate\nthe prosperity which tbe people are\nenjoying. To hint at disloyalty, or\nto make sport of lucks thnt have\ngrown grey in the public service, as\nsnme nf the mure thoughtless Tory\neditors are now doing, sounds almost like treason to Canada\u2014and\ntreason to C'annda must be teusun\nto Kngland. \u2022\nIn this issue of The Sun the department nf the naval service is advertising the civil service examine\ntons fnr tbo entry nf nnviil i-nilets\ninto the nnvnl Service of ('uiia.dii.\nThis is one of the advantages of Sir\nWilfrid Laurier's naval pulley which\nMartin Burrill voted against.\nWed.

The signs of blood-\nlessness are plain enough\u2014pallid lips\nand cheeks, and aching back, frequent headaches, with breathlessness,\nheart palpitation and great weakness\nThe only effective treatment is to\nstrengthen and build up the blood,\nand it is just by this power of making\nnew, rich blood that Dr. Williams'\nPink Pills have cured anaemia in\nmore cases than it is possible to place\non record. Among the host cured ol this\ntrouble by Dr. Williams' Pink Pills\nis Miss C. N. Roberge, or Sorel, Que.,\nwho had been in poor health for several years. Miss Roberge says: \"I\nbelieve that if I had not taken Dr.\nWilliams' Pink Pills my illness would\nhave proved fatal. The trouble came\non so gradually that I can scarcely\ntell the point at which it did begin.\nThe first noticeable symptom was loss\nof color and a feeling of lassitude.\nThen I began to lose my appetite, had\nfrequent headaches, and spells of dizziness, and became unable to do any\nhousework without being completely\nexhausted. Finally my trouble became aggravated by a persistent\ncough. I took several kinds of medicine, but did not get any relief. At\nlast I was advised to try Dr. Williams' Pink Pills and decided to do\nso. After I had taken several boxes\nthere was a noticeable improvement\nin my condition and I continued using tlie Pills until 1 had taken nine\nboxes. The result in my opinion was\nmarvellous. My appetite returned,\nmy nerves were strengthened, my\nweight increased, headaches disappeared,- and 1 am enjoying the best\nhealth of my life. In gratitude for\nwhat Dr. Williams' Pink Pills have\ndone for me 1 give this stotement in\nthe hope that it may bring new\nhealth to some other sufferer.\"\nDr. Williams' Pink Pills cure all\ntho\u00abe troubles due to poor blood,\nsuch as anaemia, indigestion, rheumatism, neuralgia, St. Vitus dance,\npartial paralysis, and the troubles\nwhich attack girls budding into womanhood and women of mature\nyears.
