This bill which\nis designed to protect tho public\nagainst dealers who may seok to sell\nGornuin goods as the product nf\nCanada, Great Britain or of any allied\nor neutral country, would, if it passed\nboth houses in Canada, be tbe most\nadvaneed legislation of that 'character\nthus far adopted by any allied\ncountry.\nTbe debate which preceded tbe\nsecond reading was made notable by\na speech by Senator Roche of Halifax, wlio warmly opposed the bill and\ndeclared that when the war was over\nGermany would become Canada's best\ntrading customer. This remark drew\na storm of protest from all sides of\ntho houso and was subsequently repudiated by other senators who participated in tills discussion.\nSenator Roche said that he opposed\nthe bill on three grounds. Ho believed\nthnt it would result iu penalizing the\npeople of Canada; that It would be an\nunfriendly and hostile act antagonistic to efforts to promote conthnmnce,\nof peace a( tho conclusion of the war]\nand, finally, ir would not succeed in\ndiminishing trade with Germany.\nAfter the war, said Senator' Roche,\nIt would be inevitable that \"Germany\nshould become one of the, main customers of Canada.

Sho had the Iron\nand tlie coal and tho factories to mako\ngoods, she would have tho shipping ta\ncarry her goods to all parts of tho\nworld and she would be the great\ncentre of international finance.

The war department\napproved a suggestion that army funds\nbe made available tor the purpose, setting aside the legal difficulty of using\nthese funds for sanitary work outside\narmy posts. First efforts of the medical corps will be centered about the\nsouthern camps and cantonments,\nwhere the rainy spring season has\nbrought an early appearance of malaria\ncarrying mosquitoes.\n(By Capt. J. A. F. Ozanne.)\nOn the occasions when British\ntroops are on the defensive one Invariably hears complaints from a certain section of the public to the effect\nthat the authorities keep back information. They allege that during an\nadvance full reports as to progress\nmade are received frequently, but that\nduring a retreat official Information\nis very tardy in reachirg tho home\npress; in fact the old proverb that bad\nnews travels post haste and good news\nfollows afoot has been reversed so far\nas this war is concerned. The inference drawn from this ls that the authorities treat the public much as a\nnurse would treat an Invalid, and that\nthey del.berately withhold bad news\non tho ground that It might upset the\npeople.\nNow, this inference is not Justified\nIn reality, and a little calm reflection\nshows that it cannot be Justified. It\nis obvious that the'authorities could\nnot hope to conceal the Icbs of a posl-'\ntion or town, or village for any length\nof time, and common sense tells one\nthat if the public has to know sooner\nor later it is as well that the public\nshould know at once. The authorities,\nof course, recognize this, and therefore they acquaint the public with tho\nwhole facts Just as soon as they themselves know it. t\nGet Enemy Report First\nHow, then, ls it that one occasionally reads of British losses In a German communique before these appear\nln the BritlBh communique? The\nreason is that the German genc.al\nknows three very imporiant things.\nHe knows when he is goin to attack,\nhe knows the point at which he is going to launch his attack, and he also\nknows what his objectives are. As\nsoon as a position has been tai.cn, or\nhis troops have set foot in a village,\nthe result ls at once telephoned to\nhim, and the report goes back through\nthe usual channels until It reaches tho\nman ln the street.\nThe British general, on the other\nhand, does not know whether tho\nwithdrawal is temporary and whether\nthe position is to be restored, how it\naffects or will affect the rest of tho\nadjacent line, and a host of oth-r essential details. It would be munifcs.ly\nabsurd lo report the loi>s of a position because the enemy has s..c*.eoUed\nin obtaining a tempo, ary footing, for\nhe may be driven out within un nour.\nFor the same reason it ls tnvcsslb.e\nfor the British general under these\ncircumstances to obtain uecu.aie in-,\nformation concerning the numbor of\nprisoners or the number of guns captured by the enemy.\nDifficult to Convey Message..\nAt tua. very moment, m-yue, every\nBlngie one of the divisional headquarters, are being also wimdiuwn and\nthis means that all telegraph and telephonic exchanges have gone una have\niu be built up again.

In May, 1911, the appellant passed\na bylaw purporting to expropriate\n-ertain lands\"' ot respondent in order\nto widen Douglas street. The bylaw\nwas registered in .the offices of the\nbounty -court' for the district of Victoria, but was not published in the\nBritish Columbia Gazette nor in a\nnewspaper published in the municipality; according to tho Municipal\nClauses' act of 1906. ' The appellant\ncorporation wished to abandon tbe expropriation and raised objection to\nproceeding before the arbitrators, who\nillowed,respondent's claim of $7500\ntor his land. The question on the appeal is whether or'not there ever was\ni valid; bylaw. The case was reserved\n\"or judgment.\nC. A.
