In\nfact until very recently he devoted his energies to\nhis business and his home, at peace with his banker\naid his neighbors.\nThe fact of the matter is that conditions have\nforced Mr. Donnelly and a good many others into\ntaking an active part in politics. Mr. Donnelly's interests throughout British Columbia are large and\nvaried. He is one of Vancouver's leading financial\nmen and is at the head of a strong, well fortified and\nwell managed trust company. He is the controlling\nforce in one of the great British Columbia meat and\npacking concerns, and is interested in several manufacturing enterprises. All that Mr. Donnelly possesses is in British Columbia. The sum total of his\nworldly assets are within the confines of this Province. His children were born here and British\nColumbia is either going to be a good place for the\nyoung Donnelly's to live or, if present conditions\ncoatinue, a very poor place for anyone to live.\nMr. Patrick Donnelly believes that British Columbia will be the best place under the sun for his\nckiidren to spend their future years. He intends to\ntake a very active part in making it, so. He has,\ntherefore, thrown in his lot with the Liberal party\nand he is a force to be reckoned with by Liberals\nand Tories.\nAs a candidate in Vancouver, he will have the\nsupport of many of those business men who in times\npast have supported the McBride Government. And\nlie will have the support of all the Liberals.\nMr. Donnelly is an organizer, a man of private\nmeans, who doesn't care a whit for petty politics.\nMoreover, he is a young man and something of a\nmaster mind. He has reached that stage where he\nnow refers to the party's welfare as a real serious\ncause. The redemption of British Columbia is the\nbig thing in Mr. Donnelly's mind, and his career\n\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BDwill be well worth watching.\nALL HAIL, THE LAWYERS!\nVOTERS in South Vancouver should have little difficulty in securing legal advice between\nnow and the next Provincial and Dominion\nelections.\nThe law is heavily represented in the lists of candidates. Mr. Baird, the Conservative candidate in\nRichmond, is a young lawyer. Mr. McGeer, the\nLiberal candidate is a lawyer. Mr. J. W. Weart,\nthe Liberal candidate in South Vancouver, was a\nlawyer, though he has of late years given his attention to building and finance.\nAccording to the \"Sun,\" the official organ of the\nLiberal party, the Liberal candidates to go before\nthe next Federal convention are Messrs. Charles\nMacdonald, George E. McCrossan, J. N. Ellis and\nMr. Faulkner.\nMr. Macdonald is a lawyer, Mr. McCrossan and\nMr. Ellis are lawyers. Mr. Faulkner is a well-\nknown insurance and real estate man.\nIt would be far better if the monies spent by the\nProvincial and Federal Governments in the past few\nmonths with a view of turning the tide of immigration towards British Columbia had been distributed\namong the stranded immigrants already here.\nCANADA BOOSTS B.

C. pig pens.\nThe location of mammoth smelting plants on our\nwaterfronts must follow the development of the mineral deposits in the mountains which look down upon the waters.\nAlec Maclaren's milk breweries can only be successful when it is possible to get a goodly supply of\nmilk in B. C. without invading the State of Washington for it.\nSo long as the Weyerhausers of the United States\nhold for the benefit of their great grandchildren\nbillions of the best timber in British Columbia, foreign or local markets are not likely to get the best\nvalue out of these vast resources.\nIf we in Vancouver can buy coal cheaper from\nthe Lackawanna people than from Nanaimo, right\nacross thc bay, how is it going to be possible for us\nto build up a great export coal trade.\nThe President of the Canadian Manufacturers'\nAssociation is right. We are due to have a great\nindustrial revival, but it isn't going to happen over\nnight.\nIt will follow legislation which will clear away\nthe obstacles which stand between our 15,000 unem\nployed in Vancouver and the God-given natural resources of British Columbia.\nTHE BOOM IS STILL ON!\nTHE campaign for settlers and mechanics has\nnot been discontinued by the British Columbia\nGovernment. There are still running in a\nscore of publications monster advertisements setting\nout to the immigrant that this Province is the haven\nof the weary. Here they may come, without money\nand without price, and participate in all that the\ngoodness of nature offers.\nRecently the advertisements have been changed\nabout considerably. British Columbia is now advertised as a great country for mixed farming, cattle\nraising, grain growing, poultry raising and fruit\ngrowing.\nThe Secretary of the Bureau of Provincial Information at Victoria is apparently responsible for\nthe wording of the advertisement which offers \"preemption lands near three great railways, non-irrigated, irrigated and dry-farming lands.\"\nOf course the advertisement does not say that all\nthese lands are now held by private interests and\nthat any man buying a farm along these railways\nwill be held up for a good high price.\nNor do these advertisements set out that the Pro\nvince of British Columbia is not able under present\nmanagement to handle the unemployment problem.\nLohner became among the newspapermen at once\nan object of mystery and of jest.\nThe months passed and one day when I visited\nLohner, he informed me that on Monday of the\nnext week the first flight would be made.\nOn the Sunday I met Captain James Ross and\nsuggested to him that he accompany me to the first\nairship flight ever staged in Canada, rte had heard\nof Lohner, was interested in aeronautics, he stated,\nand would be more than glad to go.\nHalf of Ottawa turned out to the Exhibition\nGrounds on Monday, and while a fierce wind blew\ndown upon the city from the Gatineau, men, women\nand children packed into the grounds in front of the\naerdrome. The Mayor of Ottawa was there, the\ncity council, many Government officials, a group of\nmilitary officers and among others, all the perpetual\nmotion cranks and petty inventors in the Ottawa\nValley.\nCarpenters removed the front of the building and\nLohner, dressed in a German military uniform, directed the men in moving out of the aerdrome a\nstrange machine some fifty feet long, mounted upon\ntwo wheels. It was the shape of a mason's trowel,\nwith the blade up. In the rear was the seat for the\nlirman and where the shank of the trowel is the engine was located.\nWhile the wind blew, the men moved the airship\nout to the smooth ice of the Rideau Canal, immediately behind the building. At this point the canal\ns wide, and for several miles in winter it forms one\nstraight speedway of ice.\nWhile the crowd marvelled, Lohner adjusted a\nfew screws, started the propellor blades moving, explained to Ross and myself the mechanism of the\nmachine.\n1 hen all of a sudden a great blast of wind swept\ndown upon us, and geting under the wings of the\nairship, carried it aloft.\nLohner did not move to rescue the machine. A\nquiet smile broke under his high cheek bones. And\nas the airship crashed into a tree, wrecking itself into a million pieces, the airman turned upon his heel,\nuttered not a word, entered the aerdrome, threw\nover his shoulders his Prussian cape, passed through\nthe excited crowd to a waiting sleigh\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BDand that was\nthe last that Ottawa or Canada ever saw of Count\nGeorge von Lohner.\nI told Captain Ross, on the way'back to the city,\nof the circumstances of my first meeting with Lohner, and told of the mysterious manner in which the\nfellow had carried on the building of his heavier-\nthan-air machine. Captain Ross declared that his\nopinion was that Lohner had other business in Ottawa than the building of an airship. While the\nscheme upon which the craft was constructed was\nperfectly sound from a scientific point of view, the\nCaptain could not understand, nor indeed could the\ngeneral public, the peculiar action of Lohner in deliberately allowing his airship to be caught by the\nwinds and totally wrecked. His disappearance immediately after the wreck added to the oddness of\nthe situation. The terrible war with Germany, of\ncourse, makes a mystery out of an incident which\nprobably has been forgotten by most of the people\nin Ottawa who were present that winter's day at the\nExhibition Grounds.\n\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BDGEORGE M. MURRAY.\nA PERSONAL REMINISCENCE\nIN the list of wounded the other day appeared the\nname of Captain James G. Ross, Embro, Ontario, brother of Major John Ross, of the Vancouver Twenty-ninth.\nCaptain Ross was in charge of a machine gun\nsection, enlisted at Montreal, comes of a military\nfamily, and before the war was a civil engineer,\nwhose field of endeavor reached from Cobalt to\nPeru. He helped drive the tunnel under the East\nRiver, left there to go into the mining business in\nNorthern Ontario.\nAt least three of the men who helped him work\na no-good claim north of Cobalt, on the T. and N.\nO, were with him at Langemarck. It was after\nRoss had left the Cobalt country that I met him by\nchance in the Russell Hotel, Ottawa.\nWhether it was a Geramn aviator who instructed the German artillery man to fire the shell which\ntook off Captain Ross' leg, I do not know. It is\nnteresting to recall at this time, that the day after\nour meeting in Ottawa, in 1908, Ross and I had a\nstrange meeting with a German aviator. We attended the first airship \"flight\" ever held in Canada, personally examined the aircraft and had a\nengthy conversation with the German who invented\nthe remarkable contraption.\nCount George von Lohner was the airman. Today he would be regarded as a German spy and if\nie visited Ottawa would speedily be directed to the\nnearest internment camp. I met him in the course\nof my work as a reporter in the Capital, found him\niving in a dirty back room in an old house on Wellington Street. The neighbors told me that the\nCount was \"off his base,\" and after an interview\nwith the chap I decided that the neighbors were\nabout right. The Count told me that he had invented a heavier-than-air flying machine and was about\nto build an airship in which he would sail on Christmas Day over the tops of the Parliament Buildings.\nThe Count spoke little English and it was with\nthe assistance of a German saloon keeper in the vicinity that I got from him the details of his plans. I\nwas shown the model of the machine and in the\ncramped quarters of the Count's bedroom this model\nwas made to really support itself upon the air and\nto perform a miniature flight.\nLohner told me that all he needed to perfect this\nwonderful machine was capital. He understood\naeronautics; he declared, had been a baloonist in his\nboyhood days, and had taught Count Zeppelin all\nthat he knew about baloons and airships.\nIn the Ottawa Evening Journal I published an interview with Count George von Lohner and described the wonderful airship model. I told of Lohner's\npoverty and of his desire to secure capital to build\na real airship which would astound the world.\nThis article created so much interest that several\nprominent Ottawa men came forward and offered\nto put up a sum of money to enable the German to\nproceed with his experiments. In the syndicate\nwhich was formed I had a small share and we secured for Lohner a great shed at the Ottawa Exhibition Grounds, on the banks of the Rideau Canal,\nwhich he used as an aerdrome.\nLohner moved a bed and stove into a compartment in the shed, securely locked up all the doors\nand boarded over the windows. He put in a stockI cin dipuadh tc l- i i / .i\nt ii , I \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD i i j i ^lK K1LHAKD lb on his way back from the\not silk and aluminium, various metals, and mucrrruj ,- . vl r_ . /- -.i r> \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\n,i . \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD i \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD i i- \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD r .. , i!uld Country.

He clothed his operations in absolute secrecy, refused even to allow\nhis backers, with the exception of myself, to look\ninto the aerdrome or to inspect the strange craft\nwhich was taking shape under his hands.\nI had made friends with Lohner and was possibly\nthe only man privileged to have a look into the\nworkshop. I found in Lohner a fruitful subject for\nodd yarns for the Ottawa Evening Journal. Other\nreporters envied my stand-in with the inventor. Lohner declared to me one day that a certain medal he\nwore had been presented to him by the Kaiser. He\nsaid also that the first baloon ascension the Kaiser\never made was in his basket.\n\"I you keep dose men to put up monies, I vill\nmake the honor to you in the first flight I vill make,\"\nwere Lohner's words to me upon one occasion.\nI suggested to other reporters that my man, Lohner, was really a German spy, and that he wasn't\nbuilding an airship at all but was digging a tunnel\nfrom the fair grounds to the vaults under the Royal\nMint. This suggestion found its way into print and\nquite a sensation followed.\nMR. BOWSER IS undoubtedly the goat of the\nGovernment. Were it not for the evil influences\nwhich have surrounded him for so long, Mr. Bowser might have accomplished much for the Province.\nA few of his acts since Sir Richard went away show\nthat Mr. Bowser is capable of good works.

At this meeting it was definitely slated by several of the councillors\nthat in their interview with thc bank\nmanager, he had distinctly made it\nunderstood that unless some better\narrangement could be made in the\nconduct of the municipality's affairs,\nthe bank would refuse to carry this\nmunicipality further, and no more\nmoney would be forthcoming.\nCouncillors Stanley and Rowlings\nmoved that the standing rules he suspended for this meeting, but Reeve\nGold claimed that the motion was out\nof order, and tlie municipal solicitor\nwas called in. The solicitor explained the rules of procedure and stated\nthat the motion was quite in order.\nThe reeve still refused to put the\nmotion, and on the motion of Councillor Stanley, the action of the chair\n\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BDwas declared not sustained and Councillor Stanley was appointed chairman.

All suspensions\nshould first be placed before the council, claimed the councillor, and further\nhe said: \"I claim that unless a man\nlias committed a serious misdemeanor\nhe has no right to be dealt with in\nthis drastic manner.

Thc councillors were all present, but Reeve Gold\nwho was in attendance at a court case\nin thc city, was not in his usual place.\nCouncillor Stanley was voted lo the\nreeve's chair.\nSeveral communications, some of\nwhich were from Reeve Gold, were\nread and unaimouslv ordered to be filed.\nThe reinstatement of Clerk Springford was unanimously carried and the\ncouncil gave instructions that Ihc combinations of the safes in the hall be\nimmediately changed and retained in\nthe bands of Clerk Springford.\nThe following motion re thc tax sale\nwas carried, Councillor Welsh objecting: , ,\n\"In view of tlie announcement of Ihe\nreeve that he intends to prevent the\ntax sale ordered by the council, and in\nview of the fact that in furtherance of\nsuch intentions, he has suspended three\nclerks in Ihe collector's office for the\npurpose of delaying the work, and in\nview of the fact that the reeve has\ntaken from the collector part of tlie\nlax list prepared by the collector for\npublication in the papers, and has retained same and failed to return it to\nthe collector, with thc apparent intention of preventing thc collector from\npublishing such tax list as required by\niaw.\n\"ihereforc ihis council hereby instructs the tax collector and all municipal employees in his nfice lo ignore\nand disregard any and all suspensions\nfrom office which the reeve may make,\nand they are also hereby instructed to\nrefuse to deliver over lo ihc reeve any\ndocuments in Iheir office, on penalty\nof instant dismissal.\"\n'A motion was hoxt read and carried\ninstructing the tax collector to secure\nwhat help he may find necessary in\narranging for the tax sale.\nMotions to reinstate the following\nofficials were passed: Miss llcnch,\ncourt stenographer; Messrs, Landcls,\nMotiat. Hunter and Robinson of the\nwaterworks department, and Messrs,\nCampbell, Young and M abbot I of ihe\ncollection, office, hire chief Lester\nwas reinstated as chief of fire department and 'P. Rutherford was reinstated as blacksmith.\nConsiderable discussion look .place\nregarding the $70,000 now on hand for\nsewer work. It was finally agreed to\ninstruct the engineer lo make all necessary preparations for thc commencing of this work at the earliest possible\ndate.\nThe much talked of cheque bylaw-\nwas again brought before the council\nand action was taken to finally settle\nthis matter. The rules were suspended\nand Ihe bylaw read according to the\nrequirements of law, and the following motion was carried unanimously:\n\"'that Councillor Stanley, the chairman and person legally presiding at\nthe meeting of council held on the 16th\nday of June, 1915, at which the herein-\nmentioned bylaw has been finally adopted, and the clerk of the council do\nnow sign bylaw to authorize the signing of all cheques and bank documents\nr\f the Corporation of thc District of\nSouth Vancouver.

It should\nsettle once for all who is to rule\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\nreeve or council.\n* * *\nThere is one matter councillors\nshould seriously consider\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BDthe unemployed problem. The time has arrived when councillors and public must\nrealize (hat no longer may councils\nbe expected to find employment for\nall who can not find work, elsewhere.\nThere used to be an expressive phrase\nto describe the working of the Poor\nLaw of the United Kingdom, in the\ncase of old peole who were known to\nhave a little bank account but bad to\nbe taken care of by ihe authorities.\nTheir bank account was confiscated\nand used to provide for the old folk\nin the Poor House or. as it used to\nbe said: \"To baste them with their\nown fat.\" And thc time has arrived\nin South Vancouver and other municipalities when the people, if they look\nto the municipality to keep them in\neniployemcnt, must be \"basted with\nIheir own fat.\" That is to say, the\npeople themselves must find Ihe money for the municipal pay-roll\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BDand\nwages must be paid out of taxes direct and not with borrowed money.\nWhat is needed in Greater Vancouver is a pay roll apart from the municipality. Before this can be obtained\nto any very great extent two things\nmust happen\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BDthe price of industrial\nsites must be reduced to almost nil\nor landowners must be prepared to\nlease at very low rentals for long\nterms of years, and wages must come\ndown lo a minimum of $1.00 or $1.50\na day. That is not a very popular\nview lo take and doubtless our friend\nCouncillor Welsh will - mightily indignant at the suggestion of a minimum wage of $1.00 a day; but thc\nfacts must be faced and the principal\nfact is this\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BDthat manufacturers are\nbusiness men who sit down and count\nthe cost before they embark on an\nenterprise of any magnitude. And\nwith land at present prices and wages\nat current rales, B. C. is a country\nwhich will lie given a very wide Jicrlh.\n* * *\nFai{ing manufacturies, the land itself, is the next resource. And here\nagain the price of land in close proximity Io Vancouver and other centres\nis such as lo prohibit successful cultivation from a financial point of\nview. In the circumstances, before\nthings can be better in B. C, it seems\nto me Ihey have got to be a lot worse\nfor some people, and particularly for\nland speculators. Verb. sap.\nThe reduction of ihe assessment by\nabout six million in South Vancouver\nhas almost wiped out thc balance of\nits borrowing power, even if money\ncould be obtained at a cheap rate\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\nwhich is not likely lo be the case for\nsonic years. Therefore, any money\nspent by thc municipality in future\nmust be produced by the' municipality, Consequently when residents clamor for work, the council must make\nit very clearly understood that whatever work is done will be a direct\ncharge against ratepayers.\n* * *\nThere seems lo be a very general\nidea that the municipality is bound lo\nfind work for the unemployed. But.\nthe Municipal Act. while it gives\nmunicipalities power to oorrow money\nfor piinlic improvements, distinctly\nlays it down that \"relief\" money for\nIhc \"poor\" must be raised each year\nas required out of general revenue.\nAnd anyone who gives the 'matter\nthought must realize that South Vancouver, with a working class population, can not support all its workmen,\nor any large section of them, out of\nthe yearly revenue.\n* * *\nSome oilier source of revenue must\nbe looked for, and il seems to me there\nis only one source open ai present,\nand that is the natural resources of\nBritish Columbia. Ob. but! I hear\nsomeone say. you can not develop thc\nResources of li. C. without outside\ncapital. I am not so sure aboul that.\nIn any case CAPITAL has had a very\nbad scare lately, what with Ihe advent\nof jitneys and ihe consequent fall in\nihe price of B, C. E. R. slock. And\nihc fall in municipal stock is nol a\ngood augury, for the .immediate l\"u-\nturej so i'ar as outside capital is concerned. Therefore, what is done lo\nrelieve the unemployed situation must\nPRO-PEANUTS AND\nANTI-PEANUTS\ndone With B.

Thc loss may not be in actual\nhard cash, bill in. the value of real\nestate, i-.veryone who gives the mailer a moment's thought will admit\nthat prices of land in Greater Vancouver soared far obove its real value\nduring the recent land boom. Many\nbought at boom prices. Those people\nmust be prepared to lose a large portion of iheir investment. Others\nbought when land was cheap, comparatively, and have held in Ihe hope of\neven higher prices than were attained\nduring the boom.
