UN AS Von Kapp Says Note to Italy It On Par With Anti- Kaiser Propaganda MONTREAL, Aug. 16.—The Montreal Star tonight publishes the -following dispatch under date of Ber Iin: President Wilson's recent pro nouncement on Russia is designed to do the same thing to the Soviet re gime as his antl-armistlce notes to Germany did to the Kaiser, in the opinion of Dr. Wolfgang Von Kapp, German revolutionist leader, who drove tho German government from Berlin, March 13, this year. Kapp, who has just returned from Moscow, where he discussed economic proposals with the soviet govern ment, predicts that while Wilson sue ceeded in betraying the German people, he .won't succeed in betraying Russia In a similar manner. ''Wilson's nofe to Italy," he said "Is on a par with his war-time anti-Kaiser propaganda. Wilson sue cessfutly played this game on the Germans and unseated the Kaiser. Then, however, he betrayed the German people. He won't succeed with his plan, toward Russia." Von Kapp held that recognition by France of the Wrangel regime in Southern Russia has served to vitiate all French claims of lndem nity against France. Propose Premiership to Germany As for the possibility for a Russo German alliance, he hesitated be* yond expressing clearly that Russia had proposed the most, friendly relations with Germany. "It ill becomes President Wilson to assume his lofty tone about a discrepancy between Russian words and deeds," said Von Kapp, reverting to the subject of the American pronouncement on Russia. ^Particularly does it not become him when there is such a breach between his own words and deeds. The peace we have today is as much like the words of promise he uttered as the deeds of trusts and magnates are like the 10 commandments.

Bertrand Russell was a professor in one of the English universities, is a pacifist, and before going to Russia recently called himself a communist. During the war he got into trouble in Great Britain on account of his views, and was dismissed from his university post. He went to Russia in company with the British labor delegation. In the New York Nation he has given an account of what he saw. His verdict is against communism. He finds that it does not produce the expected Utopia. "Bolshevism is internally aristocratic and externally militant," says Prof. Russell. "For my part, after weighing this theory carefully, and after admitting the whole of its indictment of bourgeois capitalism, I find myself definitely and strongly opposed to it." "There is nothing like representative government or responsible government in the Bolshevik system. "All real po-yer is in the hands of the Communist party," he explains. "That party numbers 600,000 in a population of about 120,000,000. I never came across a Communist by chance. The people whom I met in the streets or in the villages, when I could get into conversation with them, almost invariably said they were no party. The only other answer I ever had was from some of the peasants, who openly said that they were Czarists." In a word, Communism has resulted in worse aristocracy and injustice than even the Russian aristocracy which it displaced. * is .f* m **A,. Developing Empire Trade The British trade commissioner for Ontario, in a review of the period following the armistice, says that "economic, industrial and commercial conditions are sound, and that, given more stable political and social conditions through the world, the Dominion should achieve a degree of development far surpassing that achieved hitherto." The progress of manufacturing is exemplified by him by a reference to many commodities now made in Canada which were previously imported. This change is partly due to the increasing number of British and United States factories established in Canada, as the commissioner says, "to handle the local market at close range, and to enjoy, as a Canadian industry, the benefits of any special trade arrangements made for the units of the British Empire." • Imports to Canada from the United Kingdom have increased substantially, and judging by the steady advance in that country's foreign trade, they will doubtless enter into keener competition with home products and imports from elsewhere. A notable change has. taken place in the volume of SFitish textiles marketed in Canada. For the first four months of this year the import value was $48,327,637, as compared with $14,409,418 for the same period in 1919. The April imports of British textiles were valued at $12,900,000, and it is significant that for the first time in some years they exceeded in value the monthly purchases of similar goods from the United States. In May, British exports of domestic products to all countries reached the unprecedented value of $590,000,000, an increase of 85.4 per cent, over the figures of May, 1919; her re-exports for that month were valued at $100,000,000, an increase of 76.2 per cent. Imports, particularly of raw materials, also expanded in May to $800,000,000, an increase of 22.6 per cent, over the figures of 1919. Her adverse balance of trade is gradually contracting, and is now nearing the point where it will be covered adequately by payments of interest and other charges earned by her extensive financial and. transportation operations abroad. It must be axiomatic in Canadian public policy to build up Canadian trade first of all. Everything that can be manufactured on a* business basis in Canada should be made here, employing Canadian labor and Canadian raw materials. But it should equally be a matter of Canadian policy as far as possible to build up trade within the Empire. Canadians would prefer to buy from Great Britain or from one of the British dominions articles which cannot be produced in , Canada. « « « « EDITORIAL NOTES You can't get ahead by complaining.

When a man comes back from fishing in mountain brooks or swimming in the salt ear he is healthier, to be sure, full of new fire and vigor, keyed up to concert pitch. He has galhed strength, tan, hope, and buoyancy. By all the known mental and physical tests he should be worth more on the job' than he was before he went away. In most cases he lsh't—or not Immediately. For If he Is any sort of a man he dosen't want to come back at all. He wants to go on living in the manner of his barbaric ancest ors, doing as nearly nothing as possible and- wearing clothes that are no chestnut burr to his comfort He wants to sail a boat, or paddle a canoe, or wander through unbroken silence in the dustless upper air that lies along the crest of the range, ln short, he discovers, during his absence, that office work Is a rather uninspiring business, dull, cramped, and unimportant, beside the business of loafing along! aide of sunsets and campfires and tidewaters. In essence his discovery amounts to the fact that he Is more nearly an Independent savage and more nearly a plutocrat than he had thought. He doesn't like work. He doesn't want to work. He wants to live without working.— New York Globe. DAFtY NEW8 RECIPE Chinese Dainty (by Chong Y.

Sir Campbell Stuart, of the London Times, and Sir Harry Brit- taln, of tbe Empire Press Union, did not accompany the tour beyond Toronto. , Several other members of the conference have left or about to leave, unable for lack of time, to complete the Canadian tour. Dr. Powell, managing director of the Financial News, London, interviewed here today on the subject of foreign capital Invested in Canada, said; "Canada ia British to the core and she must be financed tn British money so that every Influence must be British (oo. I have the warmest admiration for your neighbors to the south, but their predominance In Canadian business is utterly inconsistent with imperialism in the higher sense." Dr. Powell has constantly urged closer economic relations hetween all nations in the Empire and ls an active member of the council of Empire trade and industry. "Among a multitude of phenomena In Canada, one stands out In conspicuous prominence," continued Dr. Powell. "It is the necessity for a far greater Inflow nf British capital. Of course, Britain Is at the moment reconstructing her Industries after the war, and her own Internal demands for capital arc unprecedented in volume and urgency. Rut these, in due course, will be satisfied, and then lt will be a matter of supreme Imperial importance to turn a flood of money into Canada. "This must be said with great emphasis because T have found in Canada a passionate desire to know more of the higher scientific and spiritual aspects of the Kmplrc, which are now loomlriR so lurge on the intellectual horizon. T spoke at L civic banquet in Toronto about tome of these aspects, and whenever T have an opportunity as we ro along I shall elucidate them again. I refer particularly to th- conception of the Empire as an orsnnism rather than as a mere partnership, usinsr that term in no metaphystirat sense, but rs the description of a real entity In the background for moving panorama of political and social development. The Canadian plan of yoking the powers of nature to the service of man so aa to set him free for the higher evolution of his own faculties and capacities and to give him consequent strength and a gra4p upon all the Immense possibilities that are before him is the very highest form of scientific Imperialism." Speaking of British financial conditions, Dr. Powell said: * "Britain is absolutely impregnable.

M.—(Canadian Press)—"Referring to Charles Pon- sl of Boston, the latest "get rich quick- wizard, the Wall Street Journal recalls the career of another "wizard" of earlier days. Ferdinand Ward, who startled Wall Street ln the early eighties, became the partner In business of General Grant, formerly President of the United States, and was later the de- fendent ln a sensational trial for fraud. His failure ruined the Grant family. The Journal gives this sketch of Ward There came to New York in 1877 a pate, slim young man who Introduced himself as Ferdinand Ward, He seemed to-be a bright young man Within three years he had married the daughter of the cashier of the Harlne National Bank and was on terms of Intimate friendship with the president of the bank, J. D. Fish, His ability to make and hold friends was remarkable Ward made excellent business connections and In a short time was looked uppn as one of tha shrewdest young men ln the "Street.* Met Grant's Son Two years after his arrival ln New Tork he met Ulysses Grant, second son of General U. S. Grant, who had established himself with law firm in New York. Toung Grant had charge of considerable property, Including his father's and some trust estates, etc, Ward, soon after he met Grant, asked him to Join him In a speculation in some flour certificates. Grant supplied the money and the speculation turned out to be a profitable one. Grant was next able to buy some Beats on the Produce exchange. This speculation was also gratifying in the result. Ward was rising. He was the magician who turned everything to gold. He now proposed to organize a private bank in which he was to be financial agent, with J D. Fish and General Grant as silent partners. Grant consented to this plan. A meeting between General Grant and Ward took place in 1880, at which time Ward was regarded as one of the most brilliant men in Wall Street. Every venture he had been connected with had been a success Want for tha Big Fish The firm of Grant & Ward began business at the corner of Wall Street and Broadway. From the Beginning it ranked high as i financial Institution. It began bus iness with a capital of $400,000, of which General Grant supplied $100, 000. Grant was merely a silent partner. He knew nothing of business; everything was left to Ward, the financial wizard who swept Wall Street off Its feet by the enor- mous dividends paid to "investors. He was soon the most talked of man in New Tork. Ward never played the galley It was the big man he was interested ln, and the big man he "got," They were eager to get him to use their money in his "contracts", which it was quietly whispered around were secured through the influence of General Grant. He would "only let a few friends in." In thre^ years the firm of Grant & Ward had grown from a capital of $400,000 to an estimated wealth of $15,000,000. Occasionally a !i t;i i-'in*'tit was sent to General Grant, but lt is said that he seldom examined them. His faith in Ward was complete. It appeared tha? everything Ward became interested in succeeded. The first cloud appeared in May, 1884, One Sunday afternoon Ward called on General Grant. He explained to the General and to young Grant, that the day before Mr.' Tappan, the city chamberlain, had drawn on the Marine Bank which the bank held on deposit for city. Mr. Ward further stated that it would be necessary to put some money in the Marine Bank before the Clearing House opened on tha following morning, because, he stat ed: "We have $660,000 there and it would embarrass us very much If the bank should close Its door.' Borrowed From Vandarbuilt After much discussion General Grant was Induced to borrow $150,- 000 from W. G. Vanderbullt. Mr. Vanderbullt told General Grant very pointedly that he would only advance the money as a personal loan, evidently having very little faith in Ward. Ward got the money and the next night he sent a message to young Grant that the city chamber lain had drawn another big cheque on the Marine Bank and that it would be necessary to raise $500, 000. "I'll get $250,000 and you do the same," the message read. Jay Gould Fights Shy Toung Grant took a list of ne gotlatlable securities to Jay Gould and asked for a loan, but Gould evidently had his suspicions about Ward, too, for he very curtly refused to advance any money on the securities offered. In company with an attorney. Grant decided to go to Ward's house ln Brooklyn lata Monday night to Inform him that he had failed to raise the money, Long after midnight Ward came ln, saying he had been out to see soma capitalists. Ha had failed to raise be undisturbed by hia failure. He promised to meet Grant early next morning, but daring the night he disappeared. He left a note to his wife saying the Marine Bank would fall the next day. It did fall. Grant ft Ward failed, too, and the whole Grant family was ruined—completely ruined. Horses, carriages, real estate and even the General's suv- enlra, war trophies, swords, ate., were ■old to- pay the loan from Mr. Vfcnderb-uiH.. Mt. VanderbuiU Returned these later to Mrs. Grant, and eventually they were deposited In the National Museum. Every effort was made to involve General Grant in the criminal efforts of Ward and Fish and every effort failed. .Had Bean insolvent Two Years At the trial Ward confessed that he had been Insolvent for two years. He confessed that there had been no contracts. When he "Invested In a contract" he had deposited the money to his personal account. The money General Grant borrowed from Vanderbullt was deposited to his personal account According to Ward's confession his method was to "borrow large sums of money for Investment He would then set aside part of this fund for dividends, ar^l by paying these large dlvidneds regularly, the in vestor was induced to leave the money in Ward's hands. These large dividends attracted other funds and the victims streamed into Ward's office, anxious to do the same thing. Fish was sentenced to seven years inprlsonment and Ward to ten years. Hastens Grant's End General Grant was hurried to his grave by the financial dlstresa that the failure of Grant A Ward brought on him, though the immediate cause of death was epithelial cancer.

Heavy supplies of cukes are coming on the market, with practically no demand, this stale of * affairs, has lasted for over a week now and still they are not moving fn any quantity, the first carload to arrive by freight ls expected the first of next week. The soui' cherries coming on th*fe market are mostly poor quality and very small. A .shipment uf peach plums t"rom Hatzic was noted on arrival to be affected with plum rot. There has been an over-supply of B. C. Clingstone I'eaches, mainly Yellow Triumph, sizes running very small, the trade demands the larger sixes to sell by the dozen, the small ones are hard to move.

' Soma taw years ago at tbe head of Tod Inlet on Southern Vancouver Is- Und there yawned an enormous SI- osvstlon. like a gigantic wound on tbe face of nature. The cement works nearby had removed from this spot thousands of tons of sand and shale for utilization ln the manufacture ot cement and it would be hard to con- cedve of a mors desolate spot thau these dry, grey acres which looked dead beyond resuscitation. Not a blade of grass grew there, not a trickle of water laved t'he gaping thirsUness of lt, not a bird sent Its note across its waste, even the un- fsstidlous crows disdainfully ignored It A hundred feet above it the woods ■were green enough, and forest flowers thrived ln fragrant profusion, but no wind-wafted seeds could take root In the dry sand and clay ot the monstrous grave; they withered and died lor want of sustenance, and because of the charm of the wooded glades above, the excavation looked all lhe acre Incongruous and unslgr tly. O , Today that same Incongruity has become one of the most lovely garden spots ln the whole length aad breadth of America, not excluding the fam- oa* gardens of southern California. It ls the Mecca of thousands of tourists every year, and as there is no real winter weather on favoured ■oath Vanoouver Island, the garden blooms practically the whole year i How was this miracle accomplish- MT Man's ingenuity aided by ever- arractous Nature, 1» the answer. Black loam by tons was carried Into the excavation, packed up against Iks day-banks, and around the rocks, Blaced in thick layers all over the SsTsls. and ln the very heart of the knis hole, water was led from a tain.

A huge pinnacle of rock that stood In the centre of the barren acres was banked with rich soil, while lhe same soil was placed in all of its holes and crannies. Rock stairways were built from tie rim of excavation down into the place itself, a hundred walks, and by-paths and stretches of lawn were mapped out, and great beds made. Rustic bridges were built across tlie lake, and the stream itself, and then the seeding auJ planting began. Scores of men were employed in the first stages of the work, and expert landscape gardeners, for not only was the excavation to be made Into a great sunken garden, but the ground above, which bad been cleared, was to be laid out in lawns, a rose-garden, a tea-garden, and a combination of Japanese and fairy garden. More little streams from tlie woods were moved into this upper garden and nourished from underground pipes, to send up rainbow fountains here and there. Avenues of hawthorns and other ornamental trees were planted and a thousand feet or more ot pergolas built. A large tea-house and a half a score of other little summer- houses, al! of the most artistically rustic design, were scattered throughout the different gardens, and every flower and shrub that grows found IU home there. The pergolas were hung with climbing toses. the tea-house graced in clematis and wistaria, and each little summer- house had Its own Individual garment of colour. This upper garden ls the iirst one to b« traversed by Ihe visitor, and havii*: seen all o!

An echo of the famous America's cu p yacht race ts conveyed ln a commutation reelved by L. N. Moffat, of .\elson, from a Toronto yachting enthusiast, which is interesting as throwing a new light on the Shamrock's poor showing. Aemllius .larvls, the writer, points out 'that three racing yachts, built fa£ light weather, could never have stood the strain of a 25-knot breeze, especially with a steep, vicious sea running crosswise, as was the case when the Saturday race was called off. As it was, he Hays, they were taking 4**-feet leaps, and to have gone on would have spelled disaster on the first I* Shamrock's trial runs with the 2 3-meter boat, he described -as farcical, and calculated to lead to over- confidence, so that Burton's only real test with her was In the actual racing, and under these conditions his real experiments were made, as Shamrock—if anything, lighter In her gear than the defender—did not sail always iu the same form, and her skipper had not enough experience of what she sailed under best. The press reports he describes as wholly misleading and written for Hail Columbia -partisans. "Once a yachtsman, always a yachtsman," concludes Mr. Jarvis, who was glad to hear of the keen interest taken In the Kootenays nf the great nautical event. HOLDSllECEPTION ~ FOR MRS.
