H.

G. S. Lindsay asked on, behalf\nof the Russian government for quotations on nickel from tlie International\ncompany. E. S. Jordan, the general\nsales manger, ln a reply which Mr. Dewart rend, stated that it found it necessary to handle all export business\nthrough its London agents, Henry H.\nMerton & Co., Metal Exchange building, London, and referred them to him.\nIn another letter Mr, Jordan on Nov.\n8 of this year, informed a Toronto\nfirm that Merton & Co. were still acting as agents.\nIn connection witli these two letters\nMr. Dewart quoted from the London\nTimes a report of on admiralty prize\ncourt trial In which the Merton firm\nclaimed \u00a3500,000 damages for a cargo\nseized as property of the enemy, nnd\nthe judgment pronounced by Sir Sam\nuel Evans, that tlie firm knew the\nowners to be enemies and sought tc\nsain some advantage for themselves, or\ntheir principals or condventurers. To\npersevere in tho claim showed, i\ncording to the judgment, a reckless\nwant of appreciation of the possible\nconsequences.\n\"So,\" said Mr. Dewart, \"we find at\nthe present time that tlio same company which was found guilty of trading with the enemy is acting as tbe\nagent for the International Nickel\ncompany In the sale of metallic nickel\nfor export.\"\nAir. Nesbltt's statement of his position and that of the International company said in part:\n\"I have never even heard the name\nof Merton & Co. before today. As to\ntho correspondence published, I can\nonly say that I have always under\nstood that not a pound of nickel hns\nbeen sold by the International Nickel\ncompany except to purchasers and\nthrough agents approved by the ad\nmiralty, whose approval should bo ask\ned of every individual transaction.

If tho admiralty approves and\nthe opponents of the Dominion and\nOntario governments disapprove or tlie\nconditions governing tho export of\nnickel, which party to the argument is\nworthy of most consideration?\nAnother point is that there Is no\nnickel refinery in the British Empire.\nThe only why Great Britain can get a\nsufficient supply of nickel is through\nthe treatment of Canadian ores in\nUnited States smelters.\nThis condition should, of course, he\nremedied.

If, as the figures will surely show, the women make\nup say 30 per cent of the total vote,\nthey should be entitled to hold one-\nthird of tlie elective or appointive offices In any political organization. Or\nto lie mon* generous it might ibe found\nwisp for theso associations to have\na man and woman president year\nabout, and so on down through all tho\nother offices\u2014-or how would it 'be to\nhavo a ladies year for all the offices, to\nhe followed by a men's year, and so\non?\nOf course, regulations will have to\nbe made to provide against tlie Tory\nwife of a Liberal husband being eligible for a. presidency in the same year\nas her worst half Is guiding the destinies of a Grit organization, and vice\nversa, A house divided ngainst itself\ncannot stand, the Bible assures us, and\nnot even for party advancement must\nhousehold relations be unnecessarily\njeopardized.\nIt will also seem to be necessary\nto tabulate or card Index all married\nmembers.

GASOLINE.\n:i\nOne of tho Interesting I things that\nhave come out ol thc meeting of the\nAmerican Chemical society at New-\nYork last week Is the fact that there\nIs very good rcasan for believing; that\nalcohol will supercede gasoline OS fuel\nfor automobiles in tlie nol distnnot future. A prediction io tha effect was\nmnde iby Dr. Arthur D. |*lttle, who\npresided nt a session of tile, society,\np \"There is no longer nnyj question of\nthe manufacture on a commercial\nscale of alcohol ns fuel for automobiles,\" said Dr. kittle. \"Experiments\nhave shown that alcohol c: n be manufactured as low as 2;\"> cents a. gallon,\nfactured as low as 25 cents a gallon.\nIn hiB speech preliminary to tlie\ngeneral discussion, Dr. IJttle pointed\nout that the horsepower of automobiles\nnow stood at 00,000.00(1, anil that it was\nIncreasing at the rale of 11)0.000 horsepower a day, due to the high rate of\nmanufacture. It had been proved that\nalcohol could ho used practically in\ninternal combustion engines and in automobiles, the only tiling tint had prevented1 Its utilization to dale being the\nhigh cost of manufacture. Alcohol\ncould bo produced from molasses as\nlow as 20 cents a gallon, uccording to\nthe testimony of one expert, at the conference, but the supply or blackstrap\nwas virtually monopolized by one industry along these lines.\nVnrious processes for making alcohol were then discussed, Dr. Little\nreading a letter from tlie eastern laboratory of the Dupont company in\nDelaware, slating Hint Uu) production\nof alcohol from sawdust had already\nproved a commercial success. The\nmethod used in obtaining alcohol in\nthis way Is to treat sawdust or wood\nchips with sulphuric acid in a lined\nconverter, and subject llie mixture to\nheat and pressure.\nAnother process outlined was that of\nutilizing tlie fermentable sugars exist\ning In waste sulphite licpiors at the\npulp mills. Pure alcohol can lie obtained in this way, lint more frequently\nother compounds are present. The\namount of alcohol present was estimated al about 1% per cent, one company claiming that 2 per cent could\nbo recovered. This process has not yet\nbeen universally successful on a commercial scnle. tho representative of another concern stating thnt the labor\ninvolved made it too costly.\nA representative of the bureau of\nordnance, war department, raised the\nquestion ns to whether absolute alcohol\ncould he obtained in this way. Dr. Little replied that there was no reason\nwhy tlie alcohol obtained from waste\nliquors should lie inferior to that produced hy other processes.\u2014San Francisco Journal of Commerce.\nJOHN KIRKIJP, A LINK WITH\nTHE PAST.\nIt is probable that in the early days\nof the Kootenays no man was better\nknown than .lohn Kirkup-4-who died a\nfew days ago at Nanaimo from diabetes and blood poisoninjf. Particularly in Rossland was he an outstanding character, where as gold commissioner and government itgent when\nthat camp was one of the howling,\nbooming kind, be'preservefl' order and\nwas n terror to evil doers. His connection witli the public service dated\nhack to 1S84, a span of 3S years, and\none of the greatest tributes given him\nis tlie fact that even tluise he was\nhardest on in the performance of his\nduty were free to sny that he was always just. Vale, Revelstoke and Ttoss-\nland knew him, as well asall thc Intervening country, before he went up\non the G. T. IJ. in the days of construction, and later was i|i the government service In Nanaimo. One\nstory of him in the early days of the\nTrail creek country was ] characteristic.\nIn lSDfl, when Uossland was a seething mass of promoters, gamblers and\nwhat not, Mr. Klrkup was tho only\narm of the law that the mining camp\npossessed, and it was a wonder to\nmany, especially to those From Uncle\nam's land, how he kept as good or-\ner as he did. One day he found two\nten fighting on Columbia avenue in\nossland and stepped In between them.\nhey stopped, but he did, not. He\nin It and fight it out theii and there\n-or go to jail forthwith. They did not\nnicy that stunt, but there was no\nhelp for it, for Klrkup was himself\nout six feet and a half toll and built\nproportion. Needless to say, those\n...en did no more street brawling after\ntheir enforced fisticuffs exhibition to\nhundreds of delighted on lookers.\u2014Trail\nNews.\nI AN ELECTRIFIED FUTURE Z\nl*************************\nThe soldier owes much to electricity.\nSuccess in battle Is largely due to\nknowledge of the enemy's position and\nmovements, often gained by wireless\nsignalling from aeroplanes, and to the\nrapid transmission ;of that knowledge\nand the consequent orders, by telephone and telegraph.\nOur command of the sea Is perfected\nand maintained largely by wireless\nelectric communications between our\nships and between ship and shore.\nIn repairing t,he ravages of war,\nalso, especially on hilman beings, electricity is most valuable. Electric\ntreatment 1b one of the many scientific\nmethods by which the military hospitals commission of Canada is restoring\nour wounded and weakened soldiers to\nstrength, and making them fit for independent and self-supporting activity\nin civil life.\nGeorge lies, a Canadian writer who\nhas devoted much attention to thlB\nsubject, writes to the military hospitals commission suggesting that electricity may also furnish a congenial\nand profitable occupation for many of\nthese soldiers when they leave hospital.\nElectric smoothing Irons, toasters,\nheaters, lamps, motors, sweepers and\ntools are very popular where they\nhave been introduced. Their popularity is bound to go on increasing ns\nthoy beepme better known, and a\nlarge increase of output will bring\nabout a decreuse In pike when normal\ntimes return. The price of electric\ncurrent has been reduced nlready,\nthanks to the partial development of\nour magnificent water powers.\nA blind officer, Lieut. Edwin Baker,\none of the few Canadian soldiers who\nhas lost the sight of both eyes, has\njust been appointed lo a position on\nthe engineering staff of thc Ontario\nhydroelectric power commission. Mr,\nlies suggests that many other Canadian veterans unfitted for hard muscular work might well bc employed\nas canvassers and demonstrators in\npopularizing electrical appliances\nthroughout the country.\nThe hat tie of the Somme, where\nCanadians have played so conspicuous\nand heroic a part, is sending home\nhundreds of men unable to rejoin the\nfighting ranks and thousands of our\ndisabled men had returned even before that grent battle had begun.\nEvery suggestion of useful and\nprofitable employment for injured\nsoldiers, therefore, is to be warmly\nwelcomed.\nThe brains as well as the sympathies of the nation must be actively\nengaged in promoting the success of\nthis national enterprise.\nOLIVER GOLDSMITH'S\nBIRTHDAY. ,\nr \u00bb\u00bb\u00bb\u2666 \u2666 **\u25a0* * *\u25a0*-* * *\u25a0*\u25a0\u25a0* * t *>-\u00bb\u00bb+\u2666-\u2666\n1 DON'T CHANGE THE TEN\nI COMMANDMENTS\nWithout challenging the authority of\nthe house of bishops of thci Protestant\nEpiscopal church, many laymen, we\nsuspect, will regret Its \u25a0\u25a0 action in\nshortening the phraseology of the Ten\nCommandments.

While\nJapan is wisely preparing her defenses by building a large navy nnd\ntraining 'A'.'lafge army she realizes\nftiat she may. never achieve veal\ngreatness as u world power until she\nshall have established herself in commerce, ln education, in social ethics,\nIn modern methods of government and\nin international diplomacy.\n\"It is my judgment that Japan\nknows she may go just so fur In trado\naggression, Imt no farther, without\nuniting.-thct other commercial nations\nof the world against her. She realizes\nthat war is not the foundation of commerce. She sees no Inducement lo\n:u'{|uire;torritory in China by conquest,\nfor she'cannot lake territory without\ntaking the resident people with It, and\nevery part of China Is now populated\nup 1o capacity. She is intimately ac\nriuuinted with Chinese character und\nshe fully kli'dws** that tho Chinese\npeople will never wear the Japanese\nyoke complacently. It would cost\nJapan iporo to govern subjugated\nChina than the territory acquired by\nforce would be worth to Japan.\n\"Japan has developed marvelous\ngrowth since the date of hor awaken\nins*. Whether her methods are regard\ned with favor or not, this does not\nchange the fact that she has turned\nher face, her energy und her tireless\nambition townrd the attainment of a\nBure footing among her sister nations\nIn all things that go to make up mod\nera greatness. She never will rush Into\nwar merely to piny war. Japan is\nbuilding a new national structure.\nShe is pushing for a new place In international commerce. Sho is developing and Is herself utilizing in a practical way her great natural resources.\nShe ls constantly Installing desirable\nand profitable industries, using her\nown labor and emptying her manufactured products Into lhe markets of all\ncountries.\n\"Japan i.s. n,pt-,ob,lU;vious to thc fact\nthat the riiost powerful nations of\nEurope have Intrenched their commerce in China. .That commerce deserves and will receive protection, and\nwhile those nations uro now absorbed\nby their own troubles at home, those\ntroubles will end and then these countries will turn their attention to thc\naggressions of other Interests.

D. \u2014 Farm labor\nagents of tbe government have\nachieved fair success in North Dakota\nIn bringing tbe man and thc job together. Since Aug. 1 a bureau under\nthe supervision of tho immigration\ndivision of tbe United States department of labor has heen ln operation in\nconnection with tho state department of agriculture and labor. The\nbureau was established at the Instance\nof Commissioner of Agriculture and\nLabor Flint to assist ln handling the\nfarm labor problem during the harvest\nand threshing season. Although the\nNorth Dakota bureau hns succeeded\niu directly filling nut more thun 5 per\ncent of tho requests filed with it it has\nthoroughly demonstrated its useful\nness, and there is a very general de\nmand that the employment offlco be\nmade a permanent, all-yeur-round institution.\n'From Aug. 1 to date, T. L. Stanley,\nformer secretary of tbe Garrison Improvement association, and who ls\nIn charge of the government labor\nbureau, has received calls for 8577\nharvest hands, 130 stackers, 88 men\ncooks, 214 women cooks and 1280 men\nwith teams, a total of 10,465. There\nhave been assigned to places, direct\nfrom the office, 148 men who called\npersonally upon tbe local agent; 129\nwho mado application by mall; 100\nwho were picked up on the streets\nof Bismarck\u2014men who sought farm\nwork but who did not know where or\nhow to find It\u2014and probably 150 were\ndirected through commercial organizations, newspapers and other\nagencies. How the deficit of 9500\nhands was [supplied has not been\nlearned, but it is presumed that the\nlack was made up by the ordinary-\ntypo of floating laborers who follow\ntho harvest from the south and east.\nA gratifying feature of the work to\ndato has been the ready and efficient\ncooperation of tbe farmers. Queries\nsent out at the beginning of tho harvest and in advance of tho threshing\nseason resulted in very complete information as to the number and nature of men wanted, wages paid and\nconditions of labor, with tho probable\nterm of employment. With this data\non hand, the agent of tho department\nof labor was in a position to advise\nexactly as to tho situation in various\nparts of the state, the wages paid and\ntho opportunities offered for different\ntypes of labor. Men dispatched direct\nfrom thc office at the capital wero\nfurnished with a blank, addressed to\nthe prospective employer, reading us\nfollows:\n\"Hearer, , has been di\nrooted to you for harvest work a;\nat wages of $ per day,\nln addition to hoard and lodging. To\nreport - - - (date),'\nALLEGE BIG INCREASE\nIN USE OF COAL\nCHICAGO, III.\u2014The present situation\nis the rhost unusual that has been encountered in the coal trade and in cer-\ntain parts It outstrips even the exciting days of 1902, says tlie Black\nDiamond, a coal trade publication Is-\nsued in thish city. In its diagnosis of\ncauses for the disturbance, the coal\npaper lays emphasis on the greatly Increased use of -coal In the cast, which\nis the centre of thc coal trouble. West\nern increases arc largely induced by\neastern difficulties. Further, It says\nthat the nub of the coal demand is for\nanthracite. It agrees with the general argument that the main factor in\nthe high prices ls the shortage of c;i\nto get the -coal away from the mines.\nMunitions manufacture in the east\nls using a tremendous amount of coal,\nsays the trade paper, and steel planls\nincreasing output have contributed\ngreatly to tho increasing demand, \"it\nis the munitions 'business which h\ncut hardest Into the situation,\" is tho\nBlack Diamond's estimate of this\npoint. Export has taJcen 600,000 tons\nper month during the summer contr\nbutlng to the eastern shortage. Export has now practically ceased and\nIs no longer a factor. The south\nsaid to be short of coal, Manufacture\nof cotton products recently enlarged\nnnd pushed has taken sovcral million\ntons a year. To this fresh demand can\nho added a great number of new manufacturing establishments in the section east of Harrisburg and Buffalo\nand north of tho Potomac river.\nAs regards the car shortage the\ntrade periodical charges tbe carrier\nwith becoming confused in the face\nof an unexpected excess demand and\nnot utilizing to best advantage thc facilities they possess. Then tho railroads haven't enough engines to do\nthe work, it is said, and in hauling out\nevery available locomotive, no matter\nhow antique, thc rouds themselves ure\nadding greatly to the consumption of\ncoul. Further, thc placing of \"reciprocal eaibargoes\" on coal shipments by\neastern and western roads has added\nto difficulties. Western roads are\nafraid If thoir cars go east they won't\nget them back again, and vice versa,\nand this has resulted in certain roads,\ne. g.p tbe Chesapeake & Ohio as regards shipments west of Chicago, tho\nLouisville & Nashville relative to shipments over two western roads, and\nthc Illinois Central, Burlington, Chicago & Eastern Illinois and Chicago &\nAlton placing embargoes on movement of their cars east of the Illinois-\nIndiana line.\nOne very large factor in the high\nprices appears to be apprehension,\nwhich has brought on in the coal business a condition similar lu that preceding a crisis. Apprehension of being unable to obtain coal has sent big\nfirms out competing against each\nother, and as they bid the prices went\nup. The purchasing of moro than nor\nmal amounts has mado the situation\nworse.\nShortage ot labor is said by the coal\njournal to figure largely In the de\ncreased production. It cites the caso\nof ono coal company which at the\nbeginning of one week spent consider\nable money in cash and for tools to\nget 360 miners into one of its mines,\nand at the end of the week found It\nhad five less miners than before its\nimportation. The missing miners bad,\nin tho main, iieen won away by other\nmines in thc vicinity, which in turn\nbad lost their men to munitions factories. Strikes now contribute to\nshortening of output.\nApparently there is a decided slump\niu production, due to whatever cause.\nTbo statements of shipments of anthracite as complied by tbo Anthracite\nBureau of Information at Wilkes-\nBarre show that from April l to September 30 the production in 11116 was\n2,075,000 tons less than in tho corresponding months of 1915. September\nshowed a decrease from August, and\nIt Is reported that October brought\nless than September. In tbo smoke-\nloss coul field the figures for a week\nor so back showed that tbo mines were\nrunning at between 30 and 10 per cent\nof rated capacity, says Tbc Black Diamond, which ls about 25 or 35 per cent\nof actual productive capacity.\nPractically all of the men sent out\nfrom the Tarm labor exchange reached\ntholr destination, and the cards wer\ntaken up by the employer and ro\nturned to Mr. Stanley, in no caso was\nany misrepresentation charged, in\naddition to tho card furnished tbe\nemployee a blank is mailed direct from\ntho offlco to tbo employer, who Is advised that ou a certain dato such und\nsuch a man has been directed to him\nIn response to bis application. There\nremains littlo chance for tho harvest\nhand to lose his way, and ho leaves\nthe office of tho employment agent\nwith the assuranco that a job will\nbe wnlting for him at the ond of his\njourney.\nPLANS OF CHEMICAL\nINDUSTRY ASSOCIATION\nEDINBURGH, Scotland\u2014At tho recent opening of Edinburgh section of\ntbe society of Chemical industry, Sir\nCharles Bedford, the general secretary\nof tho association of British f'hemicul\nManufacturers, outlined thc aims of\nthe Manufacturers' association.\nIt was, ho said, to counter the plans\nof the German industrial conquest, und\nin other ways to develop and protect the Interests of the British chemical industry, that the Manufacturers' association had been formed. Most\nof thc leading chemical firms of the\ncountry were already members of It,\nand a strong council had been formed,\nthe members being selected on grounds\nof personal fitness, and In no way us\nrepresentatives of tlie largest interests\nalone.\nA quite mistaken impression had\ngot abroad in certain parts of tlie\ncountry that this new association was\nlarge capitalist combine and that\nsmaller firms were not particularly\nwanted. Nothing could be further\nfrom actual facts. The smaller chemical manufacturers indeed, stood to\ngain in a relatively far greater degree\nby membership than even the larger\nconcerns. Collective research was vory\noften, for a number of reasons, too\nspeculative for the small concerns, and\nIt was only by pooling interests that\nsuch enterprise would be passible for\nsuch firms. Tho management of the\nassociation was vested in a council\nlimited to 20, of whom four were appointed from British firms connected\nwith chemical or closely allied Industries.\nThe industry had beon classified in\n10 groups, each of which had been represented by special conference. The\nbenefit accruing to manufacturers by\ndiscussing togother problems mutually\nadvantageous, he pointed out, was an\nacepted fact. Hitherto fears regarding trado secrets and processes had\nprevented that, hut tho balance on tbo\nwhole In a give-and-take policy was\nfound to bo satisfactory. Mutual cooperation would prevent overlapping\nof effort, duplication of researches\nand plant, nnd would promoto effective\ndealing with general problems of tho\nmost varied kind.\nAction regarding the after-war position nnd the utilization of munition\nplant, equipment and works, with their\nChildren's Day Today\nGIRLS' KILT COSTUMES, MADE OF ALL-WOOL JERSEY CLOTH\"\nMade in England and Only Just Opened Up\nCOLORS OF CARDINAL, EMERALD, NAVY\u2014 OQ Cfl\n22-Inch.

Sherman presented the revival of the old-time melodrama\n\"Ten Nights in a Bar Room\" for the\nfirst of a two night's engagement.\nThe old play, which purports to\nshow the awful results of the first\njand following visits to the grog shop,\nwas given with all its historical shud-\ndersome thrills. The unsuspecting\nvictim who falls a prey to the clutches\nof the demon drink, transformed from\na glowing cheeked youth to a delirium\nstricken wretch, the abused and starving mother and \"cheild\" watching\ntheir last nlckle disappearing into the\ncash register while their yearning eyes\nwander toward the free lunch and the\nheartless villain who Is responsible\nfor the mischief were all portrayed\nwith lifelike fidelity.\nTrue, the bid play creeks rheumatic-\nally at tlie joints and presents aspects\nof great antiquity In the matter of\nlines and construction, when brought\ninto comparison with the works of\nyounger play writers, who with amazing agility carry their characters\nthrough an entire performance with\nout recourse to a -single \"aside\" or\nsoliloquy; but what of that?\nThe company which presented \"Ten\nNights In a Bar Room\" last night did\nall that could be expected with the\npiece and was well received by the\naudience, The settings were good and\nthe various parts well characterised.\nThomas M. Sullivan as Simon Slade,\nthe purveyor of the fusil oil which\nwas at the bottom of all the trouble,\nmade a delightfully repulsive old\nrascal and quite satisfied the impression of what a grog shop keeper\nshould be, but never is. Charles\nWhltehouso made a convincing Joe\nMorgan, while George Secord was excellent as Mr. Romalne. James Smith\nas Sample Swlcbel and S, O. Davidson\nas Harvey Green gave splendid characterizations and Lew Shively as the\nson of the grog seller was all that\ncould be desired. The women characters were splendidly done by Miss\nClara La Mar as Mrs. Morgan, Amy\nMyers as Mehltable Cartwright and\nMielyn Mitchell as Mary Morgan.\nThe performance will be repeated\ntonight.\nCAN WE TEMPT YOU?\nWould you consider a perfectly adorable little \u2014very little\u2014ladies* expansion Wrist Watch with a gold dial and\na 15-jewel movement for\n$15.00\nLet us show you this Watch.
