OCTOBER 28, 1913 NO. 167 Maritime Province's De- : mands Opposed by West, PREMIER M'BRIDE GUEST OF HONOR Naval Aid First Step in Wider Scheme of Imperial Federation, (By Daily News Leased Wire.) OTTAWA, On!., Oct. 27.~-The first two sittings of tlie inter-provincial conference, whicli convened at 11:410 this morning -in the railway commission room, were taken tip aImoBt entirely with tho consideration of the demands of the maritime1 provinces \n respect to representation iu the Dominion parliament. Tiie request was introduced by Premier Flemmlng ol New BruiiBWick and seconded by Premier Mathifison of Prince Edward Island, and other delegates from the maritime provinces. Then the -delegates from the other provinces were heard from. That the conference was not united on the subject was made evident by the fnct that the discussion was adjourned without any recommendation to the Dominion government being agreed to. The delegates then took up the Question fls tp the most likely agreetnent to be reached. This was a general increase in subsidies for all the provinces. When tho conference adjourned at fi:30 this evening tbe matter was still under discussion, hut no resolution had been decided upon. It was agreed that the committee on resoln- tions would meet in the evening to put the proposals of the provinces in concrete form. At, the present time the provinces receive by way of annual subsidies over no.-'f'O.OOO, divided as follows: Ontario, $2,30^20; Quebec $1^7,1,724-; Nova Scotia, JliUli.tiTS; New Bmin> wlck, $(J37,r>75; Manitoba, ?8:j.'!,(i4'.»; British Columbia, $71.'t,710; Prince Kd- ward Island, $281,031; Alberta, $l»2fl6-' 722. and Saskatchewan, $1,648,180. Sliding Scale. Just what it Is proposed to ask on this occasion has not as yet been revealed, but a resolution similar to that passed at the conference in lfnid will probably be adopted. It provided for a sliding scale of subsidies based upon the population of the provinces. Premier Murray of Nova Scotia, who was elected chairman nt tlie morning session, did not have much information to give the press when tlie conference adjourned at ti: 30. He said that Charles Liinctot, K.C., deputy attorney general of Quebec, had been named secretary and would be the official mouthpiece of tiie conference. , Mr. Lanctot said that at the morning; session, after Premier Murray had been chosen chairman, Sir Jainea Whitney, who presided over the 1006 conference, explained the object of the gathering. Hon. J. Flemming, premier of Wew Brunswick, then introduced the question of the representation of to,-a-* maritime provinces by moving "that tills conference Is of the opinion that tho representation of uie maritime provinces iu tlie federal parliament should be the same in numbers «8 .^t was fixed at confederation and that this representation should be made irreducable. No information was given out as to the speakers in favor or against this prppositlon, hut it was learned that P^niler plftnmlng claimed that the present system of representation Is unjust to the provinces down by the sea. ...Air. Flemming said that the maritime provinces, while not perhaps le- gj&ny entitled to hold all the representation given to them by Uie British Nonli America act, should be given thnt representation as a matter uf justice. Tlie enormous development of the western part of Canada, he said, was Wt anticipated, by -the fathers of confederation, who did not realize that thj9 growth might eventually wipe out their representation at Ottawa. Mr, Klemming urged that it was hard that the. maritime provinces, which had oome into confederation at considerable sacrifice, should see their representation gradually decrease until it reaches the vanishing point. .^-Premier Flemming'B proposal received the warm support and endorsement of Premier Murray of Nova Sco-; tia jtnd Premier iMatbeWBon of Prince Edward Island. Injustice to West. Speeches dealing with the proposal were made by -Sir Richard McBride, SJr. Lomer Gouin, Hon. Walter Scott, Hon. J. J. Poy, and others. The tenor of all these speeches, it is said, was more or less strongly against Mr. Flemming'B proposal. Tim representatives of the western provinces declared that special treatment lor tho four eastern provinces wou.d constitute an injustice to the v. est. The people of the weBt, they said, would lieyer consent to a Bingle representative-- less than their population entitles tybem to. , H was finally decided to adjourn the discussion in order that consideration might be given the subjects offered.

WINNIPEG, Oct. 27.—"In Manitoba threshing is completed, ihe hulk of the crop has already been marketed and fall plowing is well ahead, tlie amount done being already above the average of former years,"' said W. B. Snow, a Chicago crop expert, who was in Winnipeg tills morning eu route to Chicago. Mr. Snow bad some weeks in Manitoba and Saskatchewan, looking ovor conditions. He is somewhat pesBlmfstic of tlie outlook In central Saskatchewan, lie states that there was practically a freeze-up on October 15 to October 22, snow, rain and frost keeping things at a standstill. There has been but two days' thresh* ing since October 15 and everything is behind. He estimates 25 per cent of the crop yet. to thresh and the acreage of Pall plowing much below the average. "Unless weather conditions take a decided turn for tiie better," said Mr. Snow, "there will bo considerable threshing left over for next year. What, is to he threshed is niosllv In stook and has, or course, deteriorated from long exposure to Uie weather."

MEXICO CITY, Oct. 27.—There is no Indichtkhi tonight as to what has been lhe result of the elections. The hope Is held oul that the "Ayuhtai- mento," a body resembling In some small djegroe a board of aldermen, will have prepared ils report for the fed- eVkl district hy the end of the week. Prom the experience of the last presidential election when the means or communication wns much better and tho country was more nearly in (i state "of pence, ii is regarded as ton much to expect that tlie results throughout the country will.be learned before the expiration of several weeks. At the headquarters of the Felix Dlftjf parly no headway lias been made to ascertain the strength of lhat party's vote. The Catholics have promised an curly statement of the vole of the federal district. Reluctance to go to the polls was general. Besides a lack of experience In such affairs there was felt a. fear that some evil consequence would follow should the voter choose a losing candidate. Less than 7 dor cent of lho registered voters cast n ballot. At Bnsenada de Lodossantos, Lower California, of which a large part was composed of soldiers, the voters were practically unanimous for Huerta aud IStnnqilot. Agreement with States (By Dally News Lensed Wire.) WASHINGTON, Oct. 2 7.—Reports from the British foreign offtco' thai Great Britain would do nothing in the Mexican situation, now that the election has heen held in the southern republic, without consultation with the United States, aroused interest in official circles here today and added strength to the persistent Intimations that tbc American government plans n note to lhe powers. which may result In a concerted Mexican policy for the future. Secretary Bryan, when shown despatches from London which asserted Great Britain's recognition of provisional President Huerta, was given to extend only until the elections, stated lhat such has been the understanding here all the time. Some officials suggested today thai the position of Great Britain with r spect In recognition of tbo Huerta government in case the election for president is declared void would be binding as it now exlsls. Should Huerta continue lo bc the head of lhe provisional government it was argued the recognition of Huerta. would necessarily continue. Others argued, however, that lhe recognition extended by Great Britain wns intended to hold good only to lhe time of lhe elec tion lust Sunday, no matter whal might bc the result. On this basis it was contended Great Britain was now free to listen to any appeal which might be made by tbe United Stales for the formation of a general Mexi can |ioliey, which would also include Ihe participation of other powers. Votes for Huerta Illegal (By Dally News Leased Wire.) MEXICO CITV, Oct. 27.—The Mexi can minister of the Interior, Manuel Lcnrza Ahlepe, was asked to day the few votes cast in lhe presidential election on Sunday in the city Mexlco might bo taken as an Indication of how much voting hnd been done elsewhere in thc republic, and if It looked, in view of lho small num her of the votes cast, ns l hough the elections would he declared null .by congress. The minister replied that the question which will decide the legality of the elections, apart from the absence of fraud, will not whether a mnjorily of the voters In each electoral district'easts a vote, it being Immaterial for Instance if only 10,000 in the cnpltnl voted. "The essential thing," said Honor Aldepe, "Is thai lhe returns come ir from a majority of tho electoral ills, tricts and thai lhe elections held there' have been fair, allhough only a small proportion of the vnters mny have availed themselves of the privilege of voting." Willi regard to tho votes enst for Provisional President Huerta and Minister of War Blannuet, lie said: "1 have no news.of any great number of votes having been cast for Huerta and Blanquet. Those which may have hern cast for Huorla will bo thrown out as Illegal, in aeeord- nnce wilh the president's declarations." Ballot Boxes Stuffed (By Dally News Leased Wire.)

Morality Not Expediency Guide of States RELATIONS WITH LATIN REPUBLICS fViaterial Interests of Foreign Concessionaires Bane of South America. (By Daily News Leased Wire.) MOBILE, Ala-, Oct. 27. —While avoiding any mention specifically of Mexico or any European influence on the Mexic.an situation, President Wilson delivered a speech here today whicli appeared to be freighted with significance and which served to point witli further directness the policy ot tho United States not ouiy toward Mexico, but towards all Central and South American republics.. Mr. Wilson spoke before the Southern Commercial congress and the big nudience whieh heard him constantly was swept with cheers and applause, Tlie president smilingly took his hearers into his confidence when lie explained lie must speak "witli moderation and without indiscretion." A score of South American and Latin American diplomats sat just be- ind the president while he spoke and many of his remarks were addressed In conversational tones to them. There wero those in the audience who thought the president might take advantage of the opportunity afforded by his speech here to say something regarding the Mexican crisis. He, how- ever, spoke only in general terms, bul many of his sentences were pointed with a meaning so clear as to leave little doubt of their intent. "Material interests," a phrase much in us*; interhntlonally of late, in char- acierixlng the attitude of foreign niv tions toward ,"*iexico, frequently was employed by the president. He declared the American republics had suffered long from the hard bargain forced upon them by concessionaries seeking "material interests," in the countries affected. The president declared that through motives of morality und not expediency the United States desired to help the Latin American republics lo an "emancipation from tlie subordination which has been Inevitable to foreign enterprises." Tlio president's speech was uttered with a confidence which bespoke the dominant part the United States expects to play in the future of the American republics. Not through any idea of "material interest," lie carefully explained, but through a love of the principles of constitutional liberty. The United States will never seek to gain one foot of additional territory by conquest. Mr. Wilson spoko of his interest in all things southern. "But. today I do not need to speak of the south." he added. "She has perhaps acquired the gift of speaking for herself. [ come because I want to Bpeak of our present and prospective relations with our neighbors to the south. I deemed it a public duty as well as personal pleasure to bo here to express for myself and for tlie government I represent tlie welcome we all feel to those who represent the Latin American states. The future is going to be very different for this hemisphere from the past. The stales lying to the south of us, which have aways been our neighbors, will now he drawn closer to ub by innumerable ties, and I hope, chief of all, by the tie of a common understanding of each other. "Interest docs not tie nations together. It sometimes separates them, but sympathy and understanding does unite ihem. While we physically cut two continenfs asunder, we spiritually unite them. It is spiritual union which we seek. There Is one peculiarity about the history of the Latin Anglican states which I am sure they are keenly aware or. You hear of eon- cessions to foreign capitalists in Latin America. Vou do not hear of con cessions to foreign capitalists in the United Slates. They are not granted concessions. They are invited to make Investments. The work is ours, though they are welcome to invest in it. We do not. ask them to supply tin capital and do tlie work. It Is an in vitatlon, not a privilege, and states that are obliged, because their territory does not lie within the main field of modern enterprise and action to grant concessions nre in this condition."

VANCOUVER, B.C., Oct. .27.—Mr. Justice Morrison today, at the assizes, turned down lhe suggestion of Crown Counsel Taylor that a junior, counsel, In the person of R. R.

WELL SATISFIED WITH VISIT Keen Interest Taken in Canada by People of Great Britain, Says Premier McBride (By Dally News Leased Wire.) MONTREAL, Que, Oct. 27.—"Keen Interest Is given to the Dominion and her affairs In Hrltain and the impression loft in the old land by Mr. Borden and his colleagues is most favorable and well calculated to strengthen Cunndlan prestige." Tim.*; spoke Sir Richard McBride al the Windsor hotel last night, shortly he- fore his departure for Ottawa. "Of course," continued Sir Richard, "the failure of Canada—no, I mean the failure of the Canadian senate—In carry through Mr. Borden's naval proposal was quite a shock to the people of Great Britain because It was there generally felt .thai assistance would be rapidly forth com ing. There is one thing wc must all admit about the mother dountry—she knows how to take a. disappointment and take it without a murmur. It has nevertheless been fell. The British people are proud, too proud in 'squeal,' arid though Ihey any little ihey cannot understand why politics should have anything to tin with th.- defence of tile empire. "A great deal is expected of Canada, in the future in lhe forward imperial movement anil the attempt of our prime minister to give naval assistance is taken io indicate that Canada will iji sunn- way bring herself into line and pave the way snlen- dldly for closer contact with the motherland and the rest of the empire. We are today his: enough nnd strong enough In undertake mure responsibility and we should not hesitate to move along, for the sake of our self- respect, if for no other reason in an effort to llghte,] the harden of the homeland and lake our honest share. "I went: over to Britain on provincial matters and am very well satisfied wilh the result. I met Sir Edward Orey. Mr. Lloyd George, Mr. Wlnsloji Churchill, ihe colonial secretary nnd others and I need hardly say that, as usual. I met with the greatest courtesy ami kindness nn all hands."

QUE11RC, Oct. 27.—The shoe manufacturers of Juehec refuse to recognize any longer tlio national unions of local shoemakers. Tills is lho result of a long conference held by that branch of the Canadian manufacturer's last, week and their decision has now reached tho working men, who are astounded by t!io unexpected blow. The situation of the shoe industry is thus acute in old Quebec and it may not lake a long time before a general strike occurs. This is anticipated by tlie employers and will result in the closing of some 2(1 shops. By a compromise agreed upon i 100G by the managers and their eir ployers, tiie national unions were to he tolerated until November 1, 1013. A new modus vlvendi was to he proposed at that date and weeks a^o the working men had sent to their em- ployers the long list of their demands In connection with tlie new agreement to be passed between both parlies. This proposition called for a demand for higher wageB. It Is said today that tho managers have reached the point where they feel more concessions would mean tho ruin of their industry. Their great grievance against the union workers is that each time a cas. submitted to tlie arbitrators has heen tost by tlie unions they have refused to submit to the verdict. For these reasons tlie manufacturers not only refused to consider tlieir demands, but even to recognize lite national unions any longer. Their dismissal of the workmen's offers was forwarded to tht' officers hy registered letter anil was received on Saturday. It has created a commotion in tlie labor circles, but the next move of the unions is not ticipated yet. It is expected that they will wait until tlie orders tire in to bring tlio managers to terms or declare a general strike. CHARGED WITH FRAUD ENGINEER ATTEMPTS SUICIDE (By Daily News Leased Wire.)

W. Halt gave a practical address on "Hog Raising.' ' Ills experience in the states enabled him to give many expert pointers, which were fully threshed out in subsequent discussion and questions. in which the secretary, J. Radford Chairman M. S. Morrow and Messrs. Barnard, Wad-loll and ' Gillespie of Fruit vale took part, the last named being a visitor. An important point for local ranchers was Ihe question of bottom vs bench lands for hog raising. Contrary tp expectation, the lecturer gave in favor of the latter on the score of health and cleanliness. He advised surmounting the difficulty 0f "green" feed on such areas by the planting of alfalfa first, and failing that, rape, which came up very quickly and abundantly, He remarked on the neglect of careful breeding by selection generally to be observed in British Columbia as compared with the states, nnd insisted on its vita] necessity to success. He went Into the question Of fall vs spring pigs at some length, the chief point being the disadvantage to the fall pig on dry feed mainly anil the Bet-back of tlie cold to he faced every time the pig came out to feed. whereas the spring pig madp growth and flesh right, along from the start with warm climate, warm foods and green feed: He laid great stress on the fine rattening "finish" to be had by the use of oil-cake at the last, and the financial wisdom of forcing the pig along lhe first 100 lbs. weight; tile second 100 lbs. costing at least one- third more, and so on in proportion. The lecturer was tendered a very hearty vote of thanks, to which he suitably responded. The question of marketing produce, gone into at lhe previous meeting, waa discussed and several practical resolutions were passed on this and other matters arising out of the reading of the report of tiie meeting of the central hody at Victoria.

He's one of those men with an absurd fear of the "waste-circulation" bugaboo —cannot get away from the haunting thought that only 10 out of every 100 readers of a newspaper may be possible buyers of his goods. So he refused to advertise, and went a-canvassing —inviting people to come to his piano recitals. Then he wondered why they didn't come. 1 This ii why: He wasn't reaching the people. His canvassers rang every door-bell in town. They talked to some one in every house. But one in every household isn't enough —particularly if it doesn't happen to be the right person. And, as a rule, it wasn't the right person—it was a servant, or a child. The woman of the house was seldom seen; the man of the house, never. Now, if the piano maker had placed an ad. in the newspaper, it would have reached thousands, where the canvassers could reach only hundreds. And even though only 10 per cent, of the readers are actual piano buyers, this does not mean that the advertising read by the other 90 per cent, is wasted. Advertising talks, not only to the prospective buyer. but also to his wife, his grown-up toni and] daughters, his mother—even hi» mother- in-law. Their coaxing will help to convince the head of the house—and pretty soon there'll be a piano in that home. This and dozens of similar cases which might be cited to show that "waste cir- culation " is an empty bugaboo, and should deter no one. Take the motor truck. It can be sold only to large firms Yet a motor truck manufacturer is successfully Advertising in daily papers. He realizes that he must reach, not alone the managers of the concerns that require trucks, but also their directors, their foremen, their head machinists, etc. It is found in actual practice that this Advertising radiates ina thousand directions, and again converges most astonishingly to influence the house that hat made up its mind that hone-trucking ia too costly and inefficient. - Advice regarding your advertising problems is available through any recognised Canadian advertising agency, or the Secretary of the Canadian Press Association, Room 503 Lumsden Bldg., Toronto.

The longest argument took place on the application of the North American Smelting Company, Limited, of Kingston, Out., for a reduction of freight rates ou lead ores and silver-bearing lead ores from points iu British Columbia to Kingston, Ont., and on pig lead from Kingston to Montreal. T' ronto and all other eastern points. Joseph Martin, K.C.. appeared for the North American Smelting company and A. II. McNeil represented the Consolidated Mining & Smelting company of Trail. The lUtter; contended that the reduction of rates was urged In order that tho eastern company could compete with tho Trail smelter. Me argue/ that this was not of concern from a railway point of view, being merely a question of trade rivalry. He analyzed the cost of routing consignments from near Field, where the North American Smelting company mined its products, and said that tlie provisions of the Canadian Pacific railway rates were designed to encourage the shipment of high-grade ores east. ' Mr. Martin, asserted that the Canadian Pacific railway rates were drafted hq as to favor the Trail smelter, which J»e declared was practically owned by the railway company, He submitted that discrimination was being shown by the Canadian Pacific railway, as ft had reduced its rate from $14 to ¥12 per ton on ore hearing 20 ounces of silver per ton. lie urged that the restriction as to the value of the ore be deleted. Mr. McNeil denied that the Canadian Pacific railway was the owner of the Trail smelter, observing that the stock was held by numerous stockholders. Mr. Drayton intimated that lie would take up the arguments whicli had heen submitted witli his colleagues and band out a ruling later. INSTALLS COMPRESSOR AT LONE STAR PROPERTY F. S.

THE MEXICAN ELECTIONS At the elections on Sunday Mexico faced one or the gravest situations in her turbulent political history and it does not appear that the elections will have done much to elucidate the problem. Mexico differs from Canada tn that it lias an elective senate, the members being elected indirectly for a term of four years. One-half of the members of the senate retire every two years, making practically n biennial election. In a lengthy article on the Mexican form of government, the Christian Science Monitor or lloston conveys the Information that the 23S members or the chamber or deputies are elected for a term ot two years, at. the rate of one deputy Tor every 40,000 inhabitants or fraction exceeding 20,- 000. Suffrage is possessed by all citizens over 111 years. Congress meets twice a your, from April 1 lo May III nnd from September 16 lo December 15. The first session may lie extended Tor -10 days at the discretion of the president and tho last for 15 days, also at the pleasure or the oblof executive. During recess a committee consisting or 11 senators and 15 deputies represents congress. This committee can convene congress if it so desires. The president and vice-president un elected for a term of six years. The cabinet consists of eight members, namely, secretary of foreign relations secretary of the interior, secretary of justice, secretary or public instruction and fine arts, secretary of. promotion, secretary of communication and pub lie works, secretary of finance unl secretary of war and marine. While .Mexico lias some first cIjie educational institutions and education has made considerable progres**, in the larger centres, the great mats of lhe people are illiterate. Consequently they are not. in a position lo a\ proacli political affairs understanding. Thi** RULING PANAMA Although tlie Panama canal is finished the United States government has not as yet adopted any plan for its efficient tip-keep and operation The politicians arc clamoring for commissions and divided authority, whll<- Col. Goethuls. the directing genius of tho great canal's construction, recommends a one-uian comihissloii with autocratic power. It must he remembered that the canal /.one embraces considerable territory, 'and thnt there wl" always he si-Attuned in that'country soldiers, officials, engineers and a force of men necessary Io took after the ordinarv operation and maintenance of the cana'. Tiie canal zone is in tlie mall1 fertile, reasonably free from disease nnd the climate Ik said to be deMitht- fuh It would not bc strange IT the zone attracted a large population, ami already big manufacturing enterprisi establishing agencies and propur ing for considerable business. It is urged that the zone be gov- rued from Washington, and that polities be rigidly excluded therefrom Col. Goethuls recommends the appointment of a czur-like commissioner who is to be a military man and an engineer. This commissioner, or gov- rnor, would control the railway, the anal and the zone, with bureaus of operation and maintenance under hlra The civil administration or the zone dealing witli police, tire protection sanitation, records; and so forth, would lie entrusted to a provincial secretary lo bo appointed hy the governor, Col. Goejtltals calls attention to tlie necessity of something being done immediately. One hundred pilots are needed tor the canal, yet there is no provision for their qualification or appointment, neither is there any authority qualified to provide lock masters and other operatives; indeed, it. is quite possible that now the canal is completed It cannot lie operated for lack or official authority to direct tlio same. As might bo expected, two schools of thought are lo be found in the United States. Some people believe that the canal having been successfully built by the army should be operated as a military work; and that the civilians who settle in tlie canal zone should be treated ub squatters upon a military reservation. Others hold that immigrant-- should bo permitted to settle there with tlie ordi nary civil rights of American citizens. Possibly the latter hope to see the stone gradually widen with thy influx oi immigration. j What the Press Is Saying AT 60 ENJOYING PERFECT HEALTH Because He Takes GIN PILLS A prominent Consulting Engineer of ri-.vf York City, thus heartily endorses GIN PILLS: 39 Broadway, New York.

Referring to the financial string- oncy, I'reniier Scott said il was nut an unmixed evil. Everything In thu wurld can be endured by continued prosperity.

Patriotism, in other words, like charity, should begirt at home. It is a pleasing sight to see some citizen of a town or city point with pride to some civic institution of which he Is justly proud. An eminent English writer recently said: "There is no more important institution in a community than the newspaper." This is true, because without printer's ink the localities of the earth would become provincial and isolated and have very little interest in one another. A newspaper is the pulse-beat of a town, city or district; it registers correctly the heart-throbs ol tbe social and business life within her portals. No dead, unprogressive town ever owned a live newspaper and no up-to- date, ambitious town ever tolerated a poor one. There are two things that are necessary before a superior newspaper can be produced. The first is an up-to- date news service, and the second is local support. Without the latter a collection of Carlyles and Emersorts would be of no avail. The Nelson Daily News is the best daily in any town of its size in Canada. We say this without fear of contradiction. And furthermore, it is the best daily newspaper published in any city under 10,000 in America. But a short time ago a traveller in Blairmore, Alta., said: "I am very anxious to see Nelson; it must be a live town to possess such a live newspaper." Mr. Martyn, special representative of Answers, the well-known old country paper, in an article in that publica tion, described The Nelson Daily News as "the daily paper most to my taste of any I saw in British Columbia,'' and he had then seen them all. Now let credit be given to whom credit is due. Who made it possible for Nelson to possess a daily worthy of metropolitan notice? The answer is—those who have supplied in loyal manner the advertising revenue. Not those who advertise alone when times are good. They are like the Irishman who only took medicine when he was well—but those who year in and year out give their support in the advertising columns. If the merchants of Montreal ceased advertising the Montreal Star, the most widely circulated paper in Canada, would cease publication tomorrow. No newspaper can exist independent of its advertisers. Now, to be explicit, there never was a copy of The Nelson Daily News published but brought some benefit, direct or indirect, to every advertiser in it. When outsiders come here they make purchases from several stores and among these store is one that does not advertise. This man reaps benefits for which the other patriotic citizens paid good money to secure. Is it fair? Now, Mr. Consumer, it is plain that if merchants and others did not buy advertising space it would be impossible to publish a daily in Kootenay and Boundary. Then, do you not owe a certain consideration to these men who have made a daily newspaper possible in this district, why not give these men who believe in the country the preference? How many are willing to do their part in making Nelson's daily a paper to attract attention everywhere? You can do your part if In future you agree to trade only with men who are willing to support the most important of all civic institutions—the newspaper. Mat EIGHT.

The title of Ihe play Is derived from the scene where Hie party of hankers gamble wilh cards to decide which one shall lake tlie blame for certain of their transactions that have brought, ihe hand of ihe law upon them.
