William Sloan, minister\nof mines, introduced a resolution\nasking Ottawa to coopering in keeping more Chinese and Japanese out\nof the province. Following tbe recent disastrous explosion at Cum\nberland, the miners petitioned the\nCanadian Collieries to cease employing Orientals in tbe coal mines. Tbe\nassistance of tbe government was\naaked and tbe miners bave returned\nto work witb the understanding tbat\ntbe company will replace tbe Orientals with white workers as soon as\npossible.\nSpeaking at a meeting in Van\noouver recently Hon. J. D. Mac\nLean, minister of education and act-\ning premier, denied that the credit\nofthe province was impaired. In\nsupport of his contention he showed\nthat wbile Ontario and other prov*\ninces were obliged to pay 6 per cent\ninterest when borrowing on treasury\nbills, British Columbia could float\nthe same loans lot 5 per cent. Tbe\nminister claimed tbat lbe political\nenemies of the government were responsible for tbe reports of ruined\noredit, wbile tbe truth was tbat tbe\nprovince was never in better condition.\nPremier Oliver's visit to Ottawa\nand otber eastern cities in connection with tbe freight rates case-has\ntaken on something of the nature of\na triumphal march. He bas ad\u00ab\ndressed Canadian clubs throughout\ntne eastern provinces and is credited\nwith having done more to win\nrecognition for British Columbia\ntban any other representative. At\ntbe personal request of Premier\nHackeniie King, Premier Oliver has\nagreed to leave tbe settlement of tbe\nfrieght rates matter until tbe close\nof tbe federal session, so tbat the\nfull time of the Ottawa government\nmay be given to it. Last year the\nprovincial fight over freight rates\nresulted in tbe removal of balf tbe\ndiscrimination against tbis prov\nince, and prospects are bright for\nthe establishment of equal freight\nrates. The direct result of this will\nbe a rush of wheat westward and an\nunprecedented stimulation of iodusn\ntrial development throughoet BriU\nish Columbia.\nA special appeal to tbe employers\n.on behalf of disabled reiurned sold\nurs is being made by Attorneys\nQsneaal A. M. Manson, minister of\nlabor. A letter has been despatched\nto practically every employer ot\nlabor in British Columbia, asking\nfor cooperation in providing work\nfor returned men, and especially\nthose incapacitated throuSh their\nwar experiences. Toe minister\npoints out tbat there are between\n600 and 1000 disabled veterans in\nthe province.\n\"They remind ue,\" be writes, \"of\na duty wbich we can not ignore\nassured of safe positions io tbe professions, in commerce or io indue-\n.ry, and of every comtort for the\nrest of their days Tbey put tbese\nthingi- behind ibem Tbey made\ntbe sacrifice\u2014a saciifice known to\nall.

Many of\nthese men find it impossible 'o look\nfor a return of the same measure of\nprosperity wbich tbey formerly enjoyed. But they do ask to be Billowed to serve tbe community in\nsome nsefnl capacity, in such a way\nas tbeir strength add opportunity\nwill permit.\"\nHon. Mr. Manson appeals to the\nemployers to arrange their organizations so that at least a few veterans\nmay be given employment and to\ngive tbe preference to returned men\nwhen engaging more assistance. In\ncidentally, he points out tbat more\ntban 80 per cent of the men who have\nbeen added to the oivil service during tbe past four years, by appointment and reinstatement, bave been\nreturned soldiers.\nNEEDS A SNOW-PLOW\n\u25a0 mT******W*l tiSS9kW^*9t**. \u25a0***,-*'*\u2022**' '4 **-A**m****mmm******>a .

The constant need of\nclose-range vision; tbe continual\nexposure to the glare reflected\nfrom pavement and buildings or\nfrom high-powered eleectric\nlights, all expose the eye to terrific strain. Many suffer from\neyestrain without being conscious of it. Have your eyes ex \u2022\namined and know. We are admirably equipped for this work.\nAn astonish ng tale that the newspapers\nhave spread is the story that the Russian\ncrown jewels were hidden in the coffin of an\nAmerican bluejacket who died in Gibraltar\nand who lies buried in Cypress Hill cemetery\nin Brooklyn. The story came anonymously to\nthe United States customs serviee, and the\npublic has heard none of the details. Who\nhad the four million dollars' worth of jewels,\nand how he or they managed to hide them\nwith the body of the seaman Jones, has mt\nbeeu disclosed.

The state railways\nire now raanagod with rigid economy.

Maris, director extension service, Oregon Agricultural college:\n1. I believe firmly that modern conditions\ndemand a better system of marketing farm\nproducts and that this can be brought about\nonly by intelligent cooperation among producers.\n2. I understand that marketing embraces\npart or all of the following functions, depending somewhat upon the nature of the commodity:\n1. Assembling. 5. Transporting.\n2. Grading and standard- 6. Storing.\nizing. 7. Financing.\n3. Packing. 8. Distributing.\n4. Processing.\nAnd I believe in cooperation for the purpose\nof performing these functions efficiently.\nEconomical and orderly marketing is the object sought rather than speculation and price\ncontrol.\n3. I know that fundamental chauges must\ncome slowly and that they will be fraught\nwith great difficulty.\n4. I expect cooperative enterprises to be\n\u25a0opposed by agencies with which they come in\ncompetition. I know that this opposition will\nassume the form of bait prices that will be\nheld up to tempt me and cause me to become\ndissatisfied; but understanding the motives\nback of these, I will remain constantly stead\nfast and loyal.\n5. I know that it will require time to get a\ncooperative business properly organized and\nrunning smoothly and that if I am unwilling to\noverlook some mistakes and bear with my\norganization unavoidable adversity, I had\nbetter conserve my time and means by refusing to be a part of a cooperative enterprise.\n6. I know that trust and confidence are\nthe keystones of cooperation. Hence I will\nparticipate in the selection of men to direct\nthe affairs of my association in whom I have\nconfidence, and I will at least grant tbem a\nfair and considerate hearing before condemning their actions.\n7. I realize that many of the benefits of co *\noperation are intangible and immeasurable,\nand that they wil! accrue alike to members\nand non-members. Non members will fre\nquently receive better prices than members,\nbut these facts will not shake my confidrnce,\nnor cause me to withdraw my support of cooperation.\n8. I will read all official communications\nsent to members and attend meetings for th e\nconsideration of the business of my organiza\nt'on. I will vote on all measures snbmitted\nto members by ballot. I will ofler constructive\ncriticism and demand the highest possible degree of efficiency and service.\n9. I realize that destructive criticism is of\nno value and that it imposes unnecessory ex \u2022\npense upon the organization. I will refrain\ntherefore from using it.\nJ. C.

Not only will Island\nand Mainland be linked by the operation of this craft, but the Canadian Pacific will nave the steamer\n\"Charmer\" engaged ln the purpose\nfarther north. The \"Charmer\" will\noperate between Vancouver and Nanaimo, furnishing accommodation\nfor all types of can.

During the busy\n\u25a0eason it will make two round trips\n\u2022very day. The vessel will be fitted\nwith observation rooms and open\ndeck spaces to give tourists every\nopportunity to enjoy at their ease\ntne fine scenery through the channels between San Juan, Lopez and\nother islands of the Ban Juan archipelago.\nSt. John.

This is partly due to the\nfact that at this time of the year\nthe perishable cargo oaly sets one\nday of tropical heat during the whole\nvoyage across. The \"Asia\" took approximately 860 ton* of this com*\nmedity in her holds, the largest consignment of apples to go through\nthe Narrows this season for the\nOrient.\nThe enterprising Oregon plumber\nwho has put a complete plumbing\nshop on wheels should not have to\ntraveUar for jobs\u2014and he will al-\nways have hi* toola.-with him.\n(1) Mater Roger* lived in thia house\nln Waterville, Minnesota. He\nelse died here.\nONE of the most difficult tasks in\nthe conitrucdon of the Canadian\nPacific Railway was to discover a way\nthrough the Rocky Mountains. A\naumber of explorers Hard made attempts to find a way, but it remained\nfor Major A. B. Rogers to discover\nthe most feasible route, the route that\nwaa chosen, and is now known as\nRogers Pass.\nMajor Rogers was a true type of\nrailway pathfinder. The reputation he\nhad made in the United States at a locating lagkiiii r ud his advanced ideas\non: raUw\u00bby mnttraction attracted th-*\nattention of tht wmadlan Pacific Railway officials, who et*, *tjt*d him to take\ncharge oi the mountain section from\nSavona's Ferry in B.C., to Moose Jaw.\nHe saw at ones the problem that confronted him in finding a straiirhU'r\n\u2022road through the SelkTrks, tliaii (as\nwas suggested) to follow tbe great\nbend northward of the Columbia River,\na distance of over two hundred miles.\nHe found the near way by following\nthe South fork of ths Mecillewaet\nRiver to tbe present site of the Glacier\nHouse, where he climbed a mountain\nand gazed upon the summit of the pass\nthat now bears Ms name. Major\nRogers seems to have been a man of\nfew words. His reports contain little\nbeyond me technicalities of his undertakings, otherwise a description of the\nmagnificent spectacle displayed by the\nRogers Pass snd its surroundings, when\n\u2022tea far tha first time hy a whtle man.\n(2) Watch preeented io Major\nRogers, of Rogers Pass fame,\nabout 1885.\nwould be well worth the reading.\nThis was in 1881. The following\nyear the exploration was completed by\nascending the Beaver River Valley to\nBear Creek, a tributary stream, then\nup that stream through thc rugged defile between Mts..- MacDonald and\nTupper to the summit of the pass, and\nover the same to the IMecillewaet Val-\nly. The surveys of the main line between Calgary, at the Eastern base of\nthe foothills of tlie Rockies, to which\npoint they had been carried from the\nEast, and the summit of the main\nnanpre were completed in 1883. Three\nyears later daily trains were passing to\nand fro between Montreal and Port\nMoody, at tliat time the Pacific terminus of the railway; and so they\npasjed for thirty-one years over this\nsection, until with the opening of Uk\nConnaught Tunnel under Mount MacDonald, it was no longer needed.\nIt was on November 7th, 1885, that\nthe last spike in the construction of the\nCanadian Pacific Railway across Can\nada was driven at Craigillachie, Brit\nish Columbia. This opened up a new\nera for Canada. In recognition of\nthe valuable work done by Major\nRogers the directors of the Canadian\nPacific presented him with a cheque\nfor $5,000 and a wartch^thus inscribed:\n!'P\",seated to Maj' A. B. Rogers\nby the Directors of the Canadian\nPacific Railway Company as a token\nof their indebtedness to him for the\ndiscovery of a pass tor the railway\n(3) Major A. B. Rogers, who discovered the Rogers Pass, the\nfirst feasible route through the\nRockies to the Pacific Coast.\nthrough the Selkirk Mountains, and\nof their appreciation of his services\nas Engineer in Chief of the location\nof the Mountain section of the rail-\nEvidently Major Rogers was of s\nmore poetical than financial temperament, tor he carried the cheque in his\npocket for several years, and he only\ncashed it when his friends of the Canadian Pacific insisted that he should\ndo so.\nAt thc time of hit death In 1889,\nMajor Rogers left his watch to his\nbrother, L. Z. Rogers, of WotervWe,\nMinnesota, who in turn left it to hit\not>ly grandson, George Rogers Glotfel-\nter. Young Glotfeher was killed in\nFrance on October 3rd, 1918. The\nwatch is now in a safety deposit box\nof a Watervllle bank. There are, at\npresent, two nephews of Major Rogers\nliving, both of whom accompanied him\non ail! of his explorations in the mountains, and were with him when he discovered Rogers Pass. They are Mr.\nAlbert L. Rogers and Mr. John G.\nRogers, HOC 5th Avenue, Seattle,\nWash.\nThe nieces of Major Rogers, and\nparticularly Mrs. C. A. Gray, have\ntaken a great deal of interest bi the\nactivities of their uncle, and are m possession of a great many of his original letters, newspaper clippings, Including letters to him from bath Sir\nWilliam Van Home and Lord Shaughnessy.

BUCHANAN, a\nChatham, Ont., boy who is\nnow a proaperoos cowl dealer n Detroit, aMributes bis\nsuccess largely to an offer\nmade him when he was a boy that he\nwould have a trip to Europe If he\nsaved up a tWrd of the cost. The\noffer was made by a friend who\npromised to lend a third provided\nGeorge's father lent the other third,\nthe loans to be repaid when George\ncould afford to do so. Here was a\nreal incentive tor saving, and when\nthe trip was made it proved of aa\neducational value that has stood Ma\nia good stead all his Hfe. Laat year\nMr. Buchanan made a trip to Alaska,\nand tht idea occurred to him of making the same kind oi offer to other\nboys that he had himself enjoyed In\nhis own youth. But the trip should\nbe to Alaska aad not to Europe. As\nsoon as he made the announcement,\nhe was inundated with applications,\nand a large party oi Detroit boys has\nalready been booked to sail from\nVancouver on the Canadian Pacific\nsteamer \"Princess Louise\" on July\n14th. I Mr. Buchanan will personally\nconduct the tour which he is thus\nhelping to financt;. He says that\nsuch a trip would have been worth\nttO.OOO to him If lit had taken it him\nself a hit own boyhood because of\nIts educational aad broadening Iftflu-\nencea.\nThe Rev. Lynn Harold Hough,\npastor of the Central Methodist\nChurch, William Livingstone, president of the'Dime Savings Bank, and\nCircuit Judge Joseph A. Moynihan\nhave indorsed Buchanan's scheme as\nan unusual opportunity for boys to\nlearn the value of thrift and industry.\nBut the trip will have still other\nbenefits, as Mr. Buchanan has said.\nThese lads cannot cross thc continent and take that wonderful trip up\nthe island-sheltered waters of the Pa\ncific Coast without Ha having a tt**\nmendously stimulating effect upon\ntheir imagination, and upon their\nfuture modes of thought and lift.\nFrom Vancouver up to Skagway and\nback is a nine-dav trio that can never\nbe forgotten. The yacht-like \"Princess Louise\" glides over a still sea\namong countless islands that rise forest-clad or mountainous on either\nside against a snow line of mow-\ncapped mountain peaks.
