In responding\nto the call to strike n ' majority\nviolated and repudiated their obligations to their own trades unions and\nto their employers, individually ami\ncollectively they wilfully discarded\ntheir agreements, indicating that the\npossession of what they are contending for is of llttlo value. Labor\nleaders who advocate that might in\nright, who hold that law, justice and\nhonor should be discarded at will,\nmerit and receive tlio condemnation\nof good citizens. In u general sympathetic strike the force is directed\nagainst the whole community, who\nare innocent of any responsibility for\nthu offense. Public indignation is\nImmediately aroused because of the\ninconvenience, loss and suffering imposed upon Innocent peopl.e Therefore, sympathetic strikes must, fail.\nSocialism has long recognized that\ntrades unionism is an impossible In\nto Its revolutionary progress, and\nseeks through the One Big Union\nmovement to undermine and destroy\nthe labor organizations whose policies\nure to regard its obligation as sacred\nand   inviolution.\nNot Organized Labor\n\"Employ era (must not mistake the\ndefeat of the genoral sympathetic\nstrike as a defeat for organized\nlabor. On the contrary, labor will\nemerge from the conflict strengthened\nfrom the wisdom gained from Its experience. Numerous strong labor organizations have by their votes and\nactions largely contributed to the\noutcome because they believed the\ngeneral sympathetic strike Ih wrong,\nvicious and demoralizing. Employers\nshould seek to deal justly and at this\ntime liberally with their workmen\nand thus assist the bona fide labor\nunions in their legitimate efforts to\nobtain v. reasonable competence for\nall  who ai'e willing to labor.\"\n.Senator Robertson's attention hav-\nhas been drawn to the fact that\nefforts are now being made by the\nstrike leaders to spread the idea thai\nthis is not a mere strike, but a revi\nlutlon. \"Sir. Robertson said be had no\ndoubt ihey were beginning to climb\ndown. He had nothing more to say.\nhowever, with reference to the cause\nof the trouble than he had staled\nin his message to the mayor uj Cal\ngary,  which  set  forth  that:\n\"Events have proved conclusively\nthat the motive behind the striki\nwas for the purpose of assuming control and direction of Industrial affairs, also municipal, provincial and\nfederal activities so far as they yere1\ncarrier! on in the city, and with\nthe avowed intention of evtending it\nto   a   wider  field.\"\nUltimatum to Strikers\nSaturday morning the general offices of the railways having head**'\nquarters in Winnipeg Issued a statement to all employees on strike, giving them until Monday at 10 o'clock\nto return to work and, fulling to do\nso, their places will be filled. It is\nunderstood tbat it is the intention\nof the railways to accept applications\nfrom reurned soldiers as rapidly ns\npossible lo fill the places and offer\nthem   permanent  positions.\nAn entirely new phase of the\nger-eral striko situation was injected\nSatiiivl.iy, when R. A. Rlgg, former\nsecretary of the trado and labor\ncouncil, a labor member of the\nManitoba legislature, and just ro-\nturned from overseas, made a public\nstatement that neither the Winnipeg\ntrades council nor any other trades\ncouncil in Canada has any authority\nto order a general strike. He asserted that the trades council is entirely a voluntary organization, whose\ncharter is granted by the Trades\nCongress of Canada, and Its charter\ngives  it   no  such  authority.\nIndications      Are     That     Vancouver\nWill   Not Have General\nWalkout.\nVANCOUVER, June 1.\u2014In accordance with the will of the central labor\ncouncil trades unions here tonight are\ncompleting their balloting on theques-\ntlon of u general strike. Several unions, among them the commercial telegraphers, are not voting.\nTeamsters and chauffeurs have voted threo to one against a strike, while\ntli*1 musicians also have voted two to\none against taking any action.\nBoilermakers have voted heavily In\nfavor of a strike, while firemen have\ndeclared their unwillingness to vote In\nfavor of a strike at this time.\nIt Is understood tnat the street mil-\nway men have voted against going on\nstrike.\nThe completion of the ballot will not\nbe available until .Monday morning.\nTuesday, June 3, Ik set as the dale\nwhen the strike will take effect, pro\nvullng a muv-jflty of the unions si\nwill It.\nAt the present lime it would not\nappear that the strike will become\ngeneral.\nVote   at   Victoria\nVICTORIA, June 1.\u2014While the Victoria public is preparing itself for\nat least a partial tie-up of industry\nearly next week, voting on the question of a strike in sympathy with\nthe Winnipeg strikers is proceeding.\nPractically no developments of importance have taken place within the\nlast H hpijr's. Two delegates from\ntbe Winnipeg strikers. Messrs, EI rich\nand Rogers, arrived In lho city\nSaturday afternoon, and addressed\nthe postal workers.

Tlie movement\nwas started only eiuite recently in\nNelson, und the speed with which\nthe teachers are joining up is considered eiuite gratifying by the executive committee which has the\neerganl zee tlon ol the new association\nin charge.\nA circular was recently sent out\ntu the teachers ot thc district, setting forth the purposes eef the association   and   urging   them   to  join.\n.The .Uwehers are warned against\nthc ejld practice of bidding for positions. VA sense of honor rceiuires\nHint great care should at nil times\nbe  taken  to avoid under bidding.*',\nThe first annual meeting of tlio\nassociation will be held at Cranbrook\nnext Easter. The association will lie\naffillateel with the B.C. Teachers'\nfederation.\nCircular to  Boards\nAnother circular was sent to tho\nschool boards of the district. It\ncontains a statement to thc effect\nthut the association lias no intention\nto protect inefficiency, and that it\nwishes to avoid any action which\nmight tend to spread discontent.\nAfter reviewing the advance In tho\ncost of living, the circular makes\na definite reipicst for an advance in\nsalaries. It asks that in caso the\nadvance cannot be granted that the\nboards make a elefinite statement to\nthat effect,\n. The eiiTular also deprecates the old\npractieo of certain school boards of\nasking teachers to bid against each\notliers for jobs, Instead of offering\na definite salary.\nThe circular to tlie teachers reads:\nCircular to Teachers\nTeachers representing Michel, Per\nnie, Criinbrbok; Rossland. Trail, Rev,\nelstoke, Grand Forks, Now D\u00abnver,\nSilverton, Kllslo, 'Creston and other\npoints, recently met in Nelson and\norganized the Kootenay and Boundary\nTeachers* association.\nTo improve the status of the teach\ners' profession, which is one of the\nobjects of the association, a higher\nremuneration for services is required,\nA recent official estimate places tho\nrecent increase in the cost of living\nIn tlie last five years at 78 per cent,\nEvery teacher who has not received\nan increase in salary proportionate\nto the advance ht living expenses Is\nin a worse position, than he was at\nthat time. Since the war is,now over\nsome, effort should be made to, re\nstore the proper Balance. If nothing\nis dono at thc prtsint time, the\napparent approval of existing condi\ntions, or of some slight change, will\nmake future complete adjustment\nmore difficult. Every person who\ngives honest and effective service is\nasserting nothing more than\ndinury self-respect if he actively endeavors to make good his \u2022 claim to\nconsiderably, more than a mere living\nwage, lie who would reply that\nthe country cannot afford this does\nnot give evidence! ot ordinary serious\nness,  and candor.\nWhat Can  Bo  Done\nThough a binding agreement among\nall teachers to c?(act a certain specified rale of increase is for various\nreasems at present not practicable,\nyet thero arc sonic tlifiigs that can\nnow be done. Tho executive committee is forwarding to all school\nboards in the Kootenay and Boundary\n.district a circular, a copy of which\nis enclosed. Tills contains a definite\nrequest for a really large increase\nas compared with thc salary scale In\n1911. Wc beljovo that this will be\ncphsldored fair and reasonable. If\nso, then teachers should expect, and\nsUoulil make it known .that they expect, that it shall receive recognition\nin practical form. If any teacher resigns at the, proper time for lack of\nsufficient increase, it is requested\nthut detailed 'Information bu immediately sent te, the corresponding secretary. Such information may prove\nto bo of value at or beforo the'\nopening of the succeeding term.\nAvoid  Undor-Biddins\nIt Is well,: perhaps, to remind teachers   that a  sense  of honor  requires\nf\nthat great care should al all times\nlie taken to avoid uneler-biddlng.\nLikewise, when a teacheT from a distance, not acquainted with local\nsalary rales, accepts an appointment\n:ind, on coming to his school, learns\nthat lie has been appointed at a\nreduced salary, he* cannot but feel,\nif possessed e,f p'rhjc, thai this is n\npersonal affront; and further, where\nthis happens in a graded sdiooi, his\nnssociate'il u-aciiers have reason to\nresent such action, anel a strong\nprotest should be expected from their\nprincipal.\nWhile consideration of the welfare\n'of the profession rceiuires thut the\nmatter of salaries Should be speedily\nand elefinltely dealt with, it is perhaps well to point out that, when\nonce a flxeel remuneration has been\nwillingly accepted for a term or for\na year, with full knowledge ot salary\nrates In that district, all disaffection\nshould be laid aside. Tile welfare of\nthe profession in a wider sense re-\n(lUlres that nil disappointments\nwhether petty or real, all local difficulties, and the influence of uncongenial surroundings, where such\nexist, must be faced with undaunted\nspirit. We think It timely to say\nthis as evidence that tlie narrow and\nfault-finding spirit, whicli unhappily\nat times finels expression in unionism,\nis to be discountenanced in an assoc\niation of teachers,\nCranbrook: has heen chosen as tho\nplace   of   the   first   annual   meeting,\nwhich will be held next Easter.    In\norder  that   teachers  from  the  moro\nremote points may not be placed at\na   disadvantage,   tho   executive   has\nbeen asked to arrange for the peiol\ni|)g of railway fares, thus making Hie\ntransportation expenses tlie same for\nall teachers attending.   It Is the in\ntentlon   to   prepare  a  strong  educn\ntional   program   and,   If  possible, ,to\nmake  this  gathering  the  most  sue,\ncessful of any convention of teachers\nevtr held in the Kootenays.\nThe B.p. Teachers' federation has\nraised tho membership fee to $5.0p;\nand we understand that associations\nthat wish to affiliate will be expected to pay $r,.00 per member. A:\nour- association covers a wider area\nthan any other in tlie province, most\ncoast associations being purely local,\nthere must be n much greater expense involved In completing and\nmaintaining tho organization, and we\nshall expect to do some work whicli\nat tlie coast points probably could\nbest be done through the federation,\n,We feel that we ha\\ve a right to ex-\n.pect that this expense anil the affil\njntlon feo both be 'covered by the\n,$5.00, and correspondence is now be\nIng conducted to this end. (In the\nother hand, an association that is\nnot worth ?5.00 to ils members is\nprobably worh nothing, and It was\nfelt at the \u2022organization meeting that\nour fee could not at present be made\nless than that of neighboring assoc\niatlous.       \"*'\";\nIcxt to Board.\nThe text, eef the board circular reads:\nThe teachers of the Kootenay and\nlioiiiulary district have recently formed nn association. The aims of this\norganization arc two-fold; First, to\npromote higher eeiiluatlolittl idqals,\nbolter teaching methods and greater\nefficiency among teachers, thus doing a much needed work which was\nformerly carried on liy thq Teachers'\nInstitutes; and secoiie1^ to improve the\nconditions under which tho members\nof the profession are employed. With\nthis in view, it is the purpose of tho\nassociation always to endeavor tei\nwork In harmonious cooperation with\nscluail boards and with the officials\nof tlio educational department, and\ncare has been taken to embody this\nprinciple in our constitution.\nTo prevent possible misunderstandings in regard to our purposes, tho\nexecutive committee wishes to say\nfurther that the influence of the association can never be used to protect\nInefficient members of tlie profession,\nor those whose conduct in any matter\nlias ben such as to impair their usefulness In the school. In such matters the judgment of the school boards,\nwhen motives arc iinnucstiohcd, must\nbe considered as final.   It would seem\ni - I\u2014j._Uii\nneedless to say this, but for the fact\nthat a contrary impression Is known\nto exist. It is also our wish to avoid\nany action that would tend to spread\ndiscontent and distrust among teachers, knowing that efficient service <-*un\nnot be looked tor where disaffection\nexists.\nWe have, however, a definite request which wo wish respectfully to\npresent lee the serious consideration\nof school.boards. During the lust five\nyears living expenses  have advanced\n.a rate tutherio unheard ol, estimates varying from \u00a31) to 80 per cent.\nThis is a fact of lrequent remark,\nand It has indeed become so common-\npine that pften it ia treated even\nlightly, and there seems to bo a general tendency to make little real effort at adjustment, While the war\nwas on teachers generally retrained\nfrom asking for increases, and school\nboards rlgptly endeavored to keep\ndi)\\yu expi'il'IUure,' Gradual adjust-\nfent, ilii'ivlore, could not tako place,\naiid now a rapid change has, we think,\nbecome, necessary. We therefore would\nurgently submit that teachers are\njiistllled in expecting a really largo\niiicreitse in salaries for the term beginning in September next, as compared with the yearly rate ot salary\nIn 1911.\nln a case where an adequate and\nsubstantial increase is not provided,\ndue. to a well founded belief on tho\npart of a board tiiat the work of a\nteacher is not satisfactory, the teacher\nshould be, informed of this in a.frank\nand (jlnilglitforwai'd manner, regardless of personal feelings, ln this way\nwe can best avoid misunderstandings\nbetween school boards and their teachers where cooperation and good-will\nshould always be fostered. In ungraded-schools, however, w\u201eere there Is\nno supervision by a principal, and the\nvisits, of eiie inspector arc rare, wo\nfeel lhat there often is grave danger\not tlie work of a teacher being harshly\nJudged; and we would respectfully\nurge upon boards in such districts tho\nneed of great care.\nJt, is a very old practice with somo\nboards, chiefly rural, In advertising\nvacancies, to ask teachers to \"apply\nstating salary expected.\" This places\nteachers in the undignified position\nof bidding against each other even\nwhen.Uiis is not Hie purnpse of,tho\nboard.\nWe think it is well to make It known\nthat teachers arc being warned that,\nwhether members, of any association\nor not, they cannot reasonably expect\nto maintain a position of respect\namong theij associates if they practise any such unprofessional conduct;\nand in this we hope for the consistent\napproval of school boards.\nWe arc enclosing with this a copy\not a c.eailar that is being sent to\nteachers.

To refuse to recognize it would be to refuse to recognize\nthe right to organize and every sensible man knows that organization of\ntho workers is necessary and desirable.   Ih has resulted in much good.\nBut that is not the issue in Winnipeg. The public of Winnipeg, the minister of labor, the provincial government, the Dominion government and\nthe people of Canada gensra'ly are\nopposing the strike in Winnipeg because If it succeeded it would throw\ncomplete control of industry into tho\nhands of a small group of O.B.U. Bolshevist agitators who are fighting to\nestablish what would ultimately amount to the soviet system in Canada.\nThis group has used the words ''collective bargaining\" as a red herring\nto draw across the trail. The right of\nthe unionB to make bargains on tehalf\nof their members lias not been challenged. It is tho right of this smal\ngroup of Bolshevists to deminato all\nindustry that has been, chnlleriged.\nIf the Winnipeg Bolshevist element\nwon the strike by means of cjimouflaga\ntalk of \"collective bargaining\" It would\nenable the strike leaders to dominate\nall idustries completely. Seizure of all\nIndustry and property would take place\nJust as quickly as control was gained.\nThey would posses a rule as arbitrary\nand autocratic as is thc rule if the\nBolshevists in Russia.\nThe public realizes this, and docs not\nintend to submit to it.\ninterchange,4 to complete Its economic\nlife. It ls a grain country, but lacks\ncoal, iron and other resources, and\neven trade outlets. German Austria\nls in a worse position because it is\nwedged in between the new Jugoslavia and the Bohemians. No enemies are so bitter as slaves suddenly\nset free. President Wilson's insistence on freedom for Flume is the result of this peculiar internal division\nof the old Austrian Empire. If Flume\nwere controlled by the Jugo-Slavs,\nsome customs ugreement giving German Austria and Hungary use of It\nmight bo made. With Italy In control\nthe muss of Austrian Slavs and Teutons and the Magyars would be united\nin angry protest. The allies, as a\ngroup, are determined to encourago\nCzecho-Slovakla and the Jugo-Slavs to\nbecome powerful minor states, as a\nbulwark against renewed Teuton aggression and a stay against Bolshevism.\nTHE\nTRAIL    NEWS   CHANGES\nHANDS.\nThe peace gardens nre beginning to\nshow what they can do in Kootenay\nand Boundary.\nBolshevism is a doctrine of ruthless\nforce.

One\nToronto paper on May 26 publishtd\nmore than 13 solid columns of \"Help\nWanted\" advertisements.\nIt looks as if Czar Lenine and Czar\nTrotsky of Russia will need an airplane to get them out of Russia quickly enough, before very long. But they\nwill find it difficult to pack what they\nhavo stolen ln an airplane. Even if\nthey can borrow a Zeppelin from thoir\nfriends In Germany it could only carry\na small part of the loot.\nWHAT THE PRESS IS SAYING.\nIt is announced in the current lasuq\nof tho Trail News that W. B. Wlllcox,\neditor and manager of the paper for\nfour years, has disposed of his interest to J. J. Clarke and Elmer D. Hall,\nwho have been members of the Trail\nNews staff for some time. Mr. Wlllcox\nstates that he proposes to enjoy a\nrest,\nHis departure from Trail will be\ndeeply regretted by the people of that\ncity, During the past four years Mr,\nWlllcox built up tho Trail Xews into\none of the best weekly newspapers in\nthc Dominion. He has been on energetic and whole-hearted booster for\nTrail, always pursuing a sound policy\nof advocating steady development and\nharmonious cooperatiou of^ tlie people\ntoward that end.\nA successful newspaperman, a goo J\ncitizen, and the possessor of a likeable\npersonality, W. B. Wlllcox will be missed in Kootenay nnd Boundary, if he\ndecides to leave the d.strtct.\nMessrs. Clarke and Hall will begin\ntheir new venture with the support of\ntho best wishes of the people of Kootenay and Boundary.\nAUSTRIA'S SMALL INDEMNITY.\nIf tho preliminary announcements\nare correct, the peace treaty with\nAustria-Hungary will require an indemnity from that vanquished enemy\nof tivo billion crowns, or about a billion dollars. Contrasted with the\n$25,000,000,000 to be exacted from Gcr-\nmuny, this seems small, but the breakup of the Dual Monarchy has tripped\nthe Teuton and Magyar portions of\nability to pay more than a nominal\nyum. Even If the old Hapaburg do\nmonion had held together, it could not\npay a largo indemnity, because dur\nIng the war it sank Into a morass of\nucbt, and its currency became inflated on a Bolshevik scale. But the\nprincipal reason why the financial\n\u25a0penalty to be visited on the Austrians\nand Hungarians is so light, an east\nern paper points out, is the withdrawal\nand erection into allied states of the\nfclav portions, from an economic point\nof view the chief producers of the empire. Thc new state of Czecho-Slovakla, for Instance,- which includes\nBohemia, has 38 per cent of the grain-\nproducing area of the old empire, 83\nper cent of the coal, $0 per cent of the\niron and 90 per cent of the sugar factories. It paid nearly 63 per cent of\nthe empire taxation. It is not without\nreason that Hungarian and German*\nAustrian economists shriek their dismay at the outlook for their badly\nshrunken countries.

This\nconsisted ot 15,438,800,000 of Uclchs-\nbank notes and $2,339,200,000 of notes\nput out by the numerous war loan\nbanks, called \"Darlengasson.\" At thc\noutbreak of the war the only paper\ncirculation was about $667,900,000 of\nnotes issued by the Hcichsbank.\nA description of tho war operations\nof the German Reichsbank is given In\nthe current number of the Federal\nReserve Bulletin. Reichsbank notes\ntn circulation increased steadily from\nthe beginning of the war with slight\ndeclines following the flotation of the\nloans when, as a result of cash payments by the public on subscriptions\nconsiderable amounts of bank notes\nwould find their way back .into the\ncoffers of tho Reichsbank and thereby decrease tho amounts of outstanding circulation. ,\nOn July 81, 1914, there was a total\nof 2,904.4 million marks of notes in\ncirculation, or about $667,900,000 taking the normal eriulvnlcnt of 23 cents\nto the mark; by December 31 of the\nsame year the amount had Increased\nto 5,043.9 millions. At Ihe end of\n1915 notes outstanding were 6,917.9\nmillion marks; at the end of 1916,\n8,059.7 million marks; at the end\nof 1917, 11,467.7 million marks, and\nat tlio end of 1918, 22,188.0 million\nmarks. Since then the figures have\nIncreased further to 23,647.6 millions\non January 31, 1919 ($5,438,800,000)\nWhile the notes in circulation Increased continuously throughout the\nwar, the rate of growth during tho\nfirst three years of the war was com\nparatively moderate. During 1915 the\nrate of increase was about 37 per\ncent.; during 1916, 17 per cent.; and\nduring 1917, 42 per cent.; but during\n1918 the note circulation increased\n106 per cent. From October 31, just\nbeforet he armistice, to January 31,\n1919, the volumo of the Reichsbank\nnotes lh circulation increased by\nnearly 7 billion marks, or by about\n67 per cent, in four months. A large\nportion of these notes found their\nway into enemy territories (Poland,\nLithuania, Belgium, France, etc.) occupied by the German armies, largely\nas a result of the practice of thc\nGerman military to Pay with German\ncurrency for requisitioned supplies.\nLoan Banka Opened\nThe notes Issued directly by the\nbank and shown in its balance sheet\nas a liability, are not all tho paper\ncurrency  circulating  in  the  country.\nImmediately after tlie beginning of\nthe war thc government adopted tlie\npolicy tried out during previous waj*s\nand established a number of loan*\nbanks (Darlcnkassen), which loaned\nmoney- to tho public on securities\nand non \u2022 perishable commodities.\nThese banks-were authorized to Issue\ntheir own notes (Darlenkassenscheino)\nup to an amount equivalent to the\nloans made by them. According to\nthe original act establishing these\nloan banks tho total amount of their\nnotes was not to exceed 1.500 mil\nlion marks. The law provided, how-\never, that this maximum could lie\nraised by order of tlie Fedeml coun\ncil   (Hundcsrat).\nTho first increase of this maximum\nwas authorized as early as November\n11, 1914. Since then further expan\nslon became necessary, as may bo\nseen from the largo increases in tho\nreported amounts of these notes outstanding. Thc notes were issued in\nsmall denominations nnd obtained\nmldc circulation owing to the scarcity\nof subsidiary coins. On August 31,\n1914, there were 70 million nuu-ks of\nthese notes in circulation; on J'Jecem\nber 31 of the same year, 446 millions. Since that time the . amount\nhas increased enormously. At the\nend of 1917 it was 6,266 millions;\nJust before the armistice wUa signed\nit wns 9,430 millions and on January\n31, 1919, it waB 10,170 million marks\n($2,339,200,000).\nTo thc 23,648 million marks of Imperial .bank note circulation there\nshould therefore bo added U0.170 mil\nlions of loan hank notes, making a\ntotal of 33,818 million marks ot fiduciary currency Issued by' thc two\nbank authorities.

Our\ncitizens through visitors aro severely\ncriticized for tolerating such a con\ndition as obtainB on Gait's main\nthoroughfare, and it takes a lot of\nexplaining by our partisans to meet\nthe strictures levelled at our devoted\nheads. Tho end to all procrastinating tactics has como In tlio nick of\ntime.

The main thing is a\npermanent pavement to take this\nmain thoroughturo of the city out\nof the rut\u2014to provide it with a\ncleantace, so to speak. That provided for, the city council can go\non with the railway job\u2014or it can\napproach the subject calmly, deliberately, without malice aforethought,\nwithout a chip on its shoulder.

For thc moment,\nns Sir Robert Borden says, that question must lie in abeyance, but it\ncannot be left in abeyance indefinitely, and he shows his wisdom and\nforesight when lie suggests that tho\npromised conference on thc constitution of thn Empire should meet not\nInter thnn next year.\"\nTemptation to \"Immediate Wealth1\nThe Morning Post snys; \"Some\ntime before the war Canada loyally\nresisted a great temptation of immediate wealth fen- tho sake of tho\nideal of united Empire; and there\nwas another Ideal involved, the economic security of Canada and tho\nBritish Empire In war.

This one\nreason was the stolen wheel problem.\nIt was pointed out thai losses irom\nthe stealing\" of bicycles during thc\npast year or two had been greatly\nreduced in those cities where the\ndealers cooperated through an association. They have also beon able\nto save considerable money through\nco-operative effort by getting final\npayments on time-sold wheels from\n' avoltlers.\"\nIn many Canadian cities now a\ndealer will call up his competitors to\nnotify them that somebody or other\nlias walked Into his store wilh a\n1-icycle that may not be the person's\n1 oncst property. The man wants to\nsell    tlie   bicycle   to   the   dealer   at   a\nvry low price, tlie dealer immediately telephones the rival dealer who\nhappens io sell thai particular lino\nof wheel, Kninetimes the information\nsecured is astonishing and thc properly   is   recovered,\nThe dealers have also learned that\nif a  rider walks into it -store for re\npairs or adjustments on an almost\nnew wheel that has been sold by\nanother dealer, there is iL possibility\nlhat the rider owes one nr more payments on the wheel, and is afraid to\ngo back if- his own dealer. A little\ntelephone conversation will bring to\nlight the real situation^ and everybody gels satisfaction through cooperation again.\nAnother little trick that many\ndealers have learned is to-watch the\noutgoing baggage rooms or express\noffices for stolen bicycles. As soon\nas :t wheel is reported stolen, the\ndealer goes or sends a man to the\nrailway station, nnd sometimes the\nwheel is there all nicely tagged for\na nearby point, whore it will be resold. This move was made in Ottawa recently, with the result that\nthe local police officials were able\nto follow a man to a nearby centre.\n-\\ search of the premises in the other\ntown disclosed the fact that a stock\nof stolen wheels were being refitted.\nand Ihe \"bunks\" of the \"agency\"\nshowed that many bicycles bad been\nhandled.    The man got  two years.\n\"Sir, this is a golden opportunity!\nSmall Investment, no risk, and enormous returns absolutely sure.\"\n\"Then l wouldn't have the heart to\ndeprive you of it.'!- -Life.\nLux-bathed from\nhead to foot\u2014\n PAGI SIN    re,\nTHE DXlLY NEWS\nMONDAY, JUNE 2, 1919.\nef\nJ General News of the City\nMRS.

The\nperson of foreign origin is usually very\ncareful with his money and when he\nputs it into an enterprise lie is pretty\nwell convinced that it is all right.\nHaving put their money inlo war\nsavings stamps these people are convinced that Canada is ull right.

It Is\nell known that between 7.000 and\n,'JUO Doukhobors emigrated from\njussla in 1899. Thc oppression they\nidured from the government there\nKis well known, and they npplied\n\\ be allowed to come to this county. They made two conditions, both\n[ which were accepted by the mln-\niter of the interior of the time. The\nrat of these conditions\u2014exemption\n|om military service\u2014was embodied\n, an order-ln-council. Thc second\nmdltion\u2014freedom to settle in vll-\nges\u2014was as fully accepted, al-\niiongh It was not embodied in so\nnrmal a document. When they came\nlie people were received with open\npriss. The immigration was the\nirgest which had ever come to Can-\ntla In one mass. Tbe fame of Can-\nda as the refuge of the unfortunate\nran spread and even trumpeted\niroughout the world. Other clreum-\nlances no doubt conspired, but the\nloukhobor immigration represented\nhe beginning of a great movement\nrom Europe, which was looked upon\nt the time as the utmost Importance\nbuilding up this country. Thc\nluropean immigrants built the rnll-\n[oys in the northwest and contrl\nuted enormously to the Increase of\nroductlon. Had this immigration\nDt taken place it Is doubtful If the\northwest would now have been in\nie economical position in Whicli It\nnds itself.\nWhether the disturbance of their\nlllage and family life, duo to tho\n'cquent harassing conduct of the\nussiun government, affected their\nilnds or not, It. is thc fact that for\nime years before and for some years\nfter their arrival in Canada the\nloukhobors were subject to put-\nreaks of religious fanaticism. These\nutbreaks did not, however, affect\nlore than one-fifth to one-quarter\nf the people, and in no case wero\nlie outbreaks of long duration. There\nlave been no outbreaks for several\n'ears.\nWhen the arrangements were being\n'jade about their settlement, I was\nfivltcd by the department of the in\nfrtor to make some suggestions. And\nsuggested that the land allotted to\nto Doukhobors should lie on the\neiter limit of what was considered\ny the government surveyors at that\n*mo ns suitable for practical settle\nten. I pointed out that tho fact of\nlelr being a. \"hard knot\" in :\npUlttry otherwise occupied by farm\ncultivating individually would\n,ot be so inconvenient as it might\nif. the settlement were iu th'e\nuart of the country, und that the\nrea intervening between the exist\nig settlements and the Doukhobor\ninds would fill up all the more readily, that they were beyond that urea.\nJills suggestion was adopted, and the\nliitlcipatlon proved to be correct,\n1 he intervening area did fill up very\nipidly and the lands quickly rose\nvalue. What I did not anticipate\nas that the government would break\nJ lith with tiie people and would, so\n|>on as lt'wus subjected to pressure\ny land speculators, seek to deprlvo\nie Doukhobors ot the lands which\n;,d been given to them, or explicitly\n\u25a0served for them. Had 1 known so\niithlng would havo induced me to\n| icourage any immigrants to come\nthis country.\nTlie procoss of attack upon tho\n| oukhobor lands began In 1906. It\nnecessary to explain certain pecul-\nI iritles of the people which laid them\nlien to the attack und left them\nJefenceless before it. About three-\nj inrths of them practised rigid\nI joperatlon, They bought collectively und they sold collectively,\nhe local merchants disliked them\necause they did not profit by their\nroxlmity on account of tho pur-\n[ lascs of the Doukhobors being made\nrincipally in Toronto and Vancouver\nhere, soon uftcr their settlement,\nley began to buy on a large scale.\nhe local farmers professed to be-\nevo that the sale of Doukhobor pro-\njuce reduced prices.\nTogether with the land speculators\nI -many farmers being among these\u2014\nlad aided by the local politicians, the\nroups mentioned organized a raid\njpon Sir Wilfrid Laurler and Mr.\nrank Oliver.' Neither of these had\nIjer been in tho Doukhobor settle-\nLent, nor did they know anything\nI tjout the people nr their character,\nho Doukhobors I. .1 no votes be-\nluse they objected io '.ho oath of\n| llcglance\u2014conceiving that to swear\ngave the government a power over\nlem which they could, not under-\n| :and. For this reason their case\nregarded with cynical indlffer\nMice. Instead of dealing with the\nuestion In a diplomatic manner, the\nvernment in 1907 simply cancelled\nio Doukhobor grants and took away\n\u2022oni the people nearly 400,000 acres\n( land. Large areas of that land\nad been brought Into cultivation\ny tho people. Technically tho gov\nrnrnent may have acted within thoir\nowers; morally, their action waB\nrtthout justification. One of the\n(ccullarities   of   the   Doukhobors   Is\nSPORT\nadherence to the maxim of Tolstoy,\nby whom in recent years they have\nbeen much Influenced. That maxim\nis \"Resist not evil.\" They accepted\nthe*situation and of course believed\nthat\u2014like the government of Russia\n\u2014the Canadian government was\nsimply an Instrument of oppression.\nThey decided tjiat even the small\nportion of land left to them was\nheld on very insecure tenure and\ntherefore they should buy land instead of trusting to government\ngrants. They bought large tracts of\nland in Britisli Columbia from and\nwith the knowledge of the govern'\nment of that province. They were\nwell adviseei, at all events for the\ntime, for in 1912 further encroach'\nmentB upon their Saskatchewan lands\nwas made, at the instance of Con\nservative  politicians  and  others.\nSome thousands of the Doukhobors\nwere transferred to the British CO'\nlumhia lands. There they engaged\nin the intensive agriculture to which\nthey had been accustomed in Russia,\nthis form of agriculture not being\npossible ln northern Saskatchewan,\nThey established large fruit farms,\nbuilt jam factories and produced on\na large scale. During the war they\npresented tlie government witli great\nquantities of Jam as their contribution lo tlie war funds.\nNow comes the crime\u2014these peaceable, If obstinate and peculiar people,\nare being forced out of their purchased lands as they were forced out\nof their homesteads by the same\nconspiracy of local tradesmen, local\nfarmers, local politicians and local\nspeculators. .These people have entertained the idea of exploiting the\nreturned soldier in order to deprive\nthe Doukhobors of their cultivated\nlands. Tho intention of tho scheme\nis ns obvious as it is llscredltable.\nOn tho pica that the returned soldier\nmust have land they have induced\nthe government to buy out the Doukhobors at forced sale, and then to\ngive the returned soldiers grants of\ntheir land. Thc experience of such\nmilitary grants In this country and\nelsewhere is thut the soldier quickly\nrealizes upon his grant, and then\nthe opportunity of the speculator\ncomes. He buys the grunts thus\nsuddenly thrown upon the market\nat a low price, and holds ho, land\nfor a profit, meanwhile allowing it\nto fall out of cultivation.\nThere is plenty of land In British\nColumbia and in thc northwest for\nall the returned soldiers who genuinely desire to settle down to an\nagricultural life. They should be\ngenerousy treated in tho distribution\nof innd, but there can be no sound\npolicy in turning out established settlers who aro making a success of\nintensive cultivation, and who have\nbought and paid for their land, be\nUeving in tlie good faith of the\npeople of Canada in their respect\nfor civil rights. The soldier, unless\nhe ls nlso a politician, may find his\ngrant similarly expropriated on the\nplea that lie has not fulfilled precisely all the conditions. This coun\ntry needs immigrants to occupy its\nwide spaces; how can they bo expected to come if the prospect lies\nbefore them of being deprived on\none excuse or another of their homesteads or even of the lands they have\npaid for?\nWhat are the dispossessed Doukho-\nbi'rs to do? They cannot go back\nto Russia; tlie conditions' there would\nbe for them not any belter than they\nare here. It is useless for them to\nelnnk ot buying land in this country,\nbecause senile plausible excuse might\nat tiny time bo Invented to deprive\nthen of it in the same way\noelng done now. They must inevitably be turned into vagrants-unable\nto obtain land in a country\nthere arc millions of acres\ntor the plow.\nThc lite of these unfortunate people\nhas  been again and again  torn  up\nby the roots, not only in Russia, but\n1\u201e   this   country,   by   the   action\nthe   respective   governments.
