THE! PRINCETON Twenty-second Year—No. i PRINCETON, 8 C, FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 26, 1920. PER YEAR : $2.50 Cash Single Copy gc. Princeton Audience iHears Mr. McKenzie Declares Necessity For Re-Adjustment Of Civil Servant Situation An enthusiastic and well attended meeting in the interest of Mr. W. A. McKenzie's candidature a ; the forth- coining Provincial election was held i^ the I. O. O. F. hall on Wednesday :ij£nihg. Mr. EHE. Hj. Avery presided E-Tfcnd was supported on the platform by Mr. W. A. McKenzie and Mr. Alex Morrison, of Keremeos. Mr. Morrison opened witjh a criticism of ithe Liberal Government's attitude toward the Conservative administration. He alluded to a cam-, paign pamphlet issued by Hon. John Oliver. This, he daid, was supposed to be all gospel and it was the gospel according to John (laughter). Mr. Morrison then went on to speak at length on thati portion of the pamJ fillet in which the financial condition of the Province was dealt with and said that Mr. Oliver threw the whole responsibility for the condition of affairs when the Liberal party came into power on to the Conservative government. Thc'|S was unfair, be maintained, in that when the Mc- Bride-Bowser government first came into office they found financial conui- t'ons in a far worse shape than was the case when the Liberals Eook hold. The McBride-Bowser government improved the financial conditions lo such air~extent that a large surplus was obtained and whilst building up this ^surplus many public works were carried out.. He spoke at length on the Conservative government's attitude and actions codnecte with the guaranteeing of tihe interest o'n the bonds of the C. N. It. and P. G. E. The speaker then wen* on to deal with the figures given in Mr. Oliver's manifesto and pointed out <<hat the only debt which could be laid at tihe door of the McBride- Bowser goverment w 1, a one of four million dollars for the P. G. E. and maintained that this \v;ip offs. I by the government getiing n ; i?ft"f'*'Vapiial stock of the company, the raiway as far as it waft) constructed the land -and rolling stock together, with the cancellation of a two million dollar debt and a valuable contract for steel. Having outlined the constructive work done by the Bowser government Mr. Morrison spoke of the grea 1 need for the opening of the Hope to Princeton ijtretch of the transProvincial highway and said tjhat ,it remained for each and all to continually push this. Mr. W. A. McKenzie, after paying a tribute to be late Senator Shatford said that perslonally he had constantly advocated* the consturction of the Hope-Princeton road and the people of Princeton had the late member (Mr. Shatford) and Mr. Bowser alone to t,hank for the work already done on it. But it was found necessary to stop the work when the war broke out in 1914 and awhile after the agitation for the Fraser route started at Kamloops. EHad it- not been for this he believed the road would have been built by now. He assured hia hearers most emphatically that he would work for the construction of this road first, last and all the time (applause). The recent survey through that country, •he believed, had shown a route by which the road could be built at a saving of nearly half a million dollars and this saving would have to weigh very heaviily with any administration. It would be difficult for any government to spend an unnecessary half million dollars on the trans-Provincial highway fn order lo take it up the Fraser Canyon. EEventually, y£a believed the tourist traffic would I warrent the building of other roads and the Fraser road could then be constructed. With regard to himself as a can* dfdatje Mr. McKenzie pointed out thai it had been said it would be better for the riding if the member representing it was on the same side as the government but he could safely say that there was not one if ding in B. C. which had had so much, devel- . Opment work done as the Similkameen during his tenure of office. He had critcized the government and he bad also supported all tihe good meas ures introduced by the government. On the question of the government sale of liquor*: Mr. McKenzie claimed that it was1 a waste of pub? lie funds to have had the plebescite taken when a general election was so close at jhand. The two votes should have been taken at the same (Continued on page 6) ORANGEMEN SUPPORT BRITISH PREMIER Want no Privilege granted those Guilty of Unlawful Acts At the. regular meeting of .he Excelsior L.

Penticton Favors 7 Hope^Princeton Road Board of Trade Receives Assurances of Support From W. A» HcKenzie That the people of Penticton were unanimously in favor of the Hope- Princeton route of -the trans-Provincial highway was ithe assurance given by Mr. W. A. McKenzie, Conservative candidate for the Similkameen riding at ihe Provincifel general election, to the Princeton Board of Trade, at a ^pecial meeting, held on Wednesday evening. The meeting was for the pupose of ascertaining Mr. McKenzie's stand with regard to this and various other questions of vital importance to the district. Mr. P. W. Gregory, the secretary- treasurer, having briefly and clearly outlined title importance of the construction of the ling in the trans-Provincial highway. Mrl Js. Waterman asked Mr. McKenzi\>ff there did not appear to be some apathy on the part of the people of Penticton regarding this matter. Mr. McKenzie replied ,tha,tt he had not heard any -expression of opposi. tion to the road and he wasi sure the PeQfCeton people were unanimously in favor of it. 'The Penticton Board of Trade and Municipal Council had endorsed all resolutions brought before them by the Princeton Board of Trade Personally he had never ceased to promote the building of the Hope- Pr'ntceton road but the matter had never been brought officially before the House. He had been unable to obtain any report on the survey of the Fraser route except the information given in public speeches by the Minister of Public Works and he dpd not think that any official information would be forthcoming until the final purvey reports were submit/ed. He assured the board of bfjs staunch support in that matter. The importance of an extension of eight miles to the Summers. Creek road having been dscussed the question of government ownership of hospitals was introduced. Mr. McKenzie said this was a mat' ter which in his opinion required the establishment of a new system. Without a doubt the Provincial government would have to render greater financed assistance to these institutions,. In the past, because various splendid organizations, ladies' auxiliaries, dnives, etc., had raiised large sums of money for the hospitals of the province and it had been proved by experience that if a government took over the hospitals ?he work of these organfzaton:i,would die out. It was pointed out that under the system of raising money by means of these organizations the money as a rule came out of just a few pockets, while many people received treatment who never contributed a cent toward the upkeep of the institution. Mr. McKenzie agreed that this was true and expressed himself in favor of a direct tax, over and above other taxes, to be paid by all those no1.' paying regular hospital dues. This should not be called a poll tax but to be known as a hospital tax. Snowstorm in Montreal Foul Play Verdict pOf Coroner's Jury House and Body of Coalmont Woman Burned Under Suspi= cious Circumstances KEATING PLANT ARRIVES Montreal, Nov. 25.—The first real kick of winter came on Tuesday to this city when a fairly considerable Ptnowstorm with high winds struck Montreal in the afternoon and continued, for some hours tonight. Tne carred remains of Mrs. Hattie McBr.ijie were removed from the asaies cf tne house in which she had lived a,\ Coalmont, at daybreak oh Sunday morning. .According to .ihe verdict leturned at §1* inquest foul piay was connected w,pEh tragedy. The deceased wo'nian, who was 50 years of age, moved from Greenwood to Coalmont about eleven years ago -iia established there a house of ill- refute. According to evidence submitted a, the inquest conducted by Dr. D.. McCaffrey, Norman McDonald, a man who was intimately acquainted with Mrs. McBride, last saw her alive about 7:30 on Saturday evening. She was unwell on Saturday afternoon and retired to bed about 5 p. m. Four men visi ed 'uhe house about half past twelve at night but failed to get any reply to repeated knockings at the door, Half an hour later, a man named Andy Muir noticed fire in the hotfj'e and after calling three other men to accompany him went down io .he house and endeavored to extinguish the flames. The fire had spread so far and the heat was so great they were unable to enter the house. The building was entirely destroyed. At daybreak, after the fire had died down the body was discovered in 'such a position as to indicate that the woman was not in her bedroom, but in one of the other rooms of the house. The evidence of Dr. Lee Smith was to the effect that the body was charred ^o an extent which required greater heat' than would have been generated by the burning of the binding In fact it was so badly burned that it was impcHsible to really tell whether it. was the body of a man, woman or child. A tremendous heat was required to reduce a human body yo this condition. The verdict was that the deceased "came to her death by foul play by some party or parties unknown who afterwards set fire to the house." Mry. Hattie McBnide was said to be a woman of considerable means, owning $15,000 wor^h of bonds, and debentures in the city of Greenwood, $5000 in Victory Bonds and having a similar amount in cash in the bank. She was known to keep a considerable sum in cash in her jh°ine and a roll of what appeared to burned bills waa found among the remains of her trunk. A tin containing »a large quantity of burned silver money was also discovered. This, it is claimed, destroys the Jheory that robbery had been the motive of a crime and no other suggestion is at present forthcoming to explain why her life s'hould have been taken. The Provincial police are invest'gat- ing the case but |have not the slighEt- est clue to guide their efforts. So far as can* be learned the deceased had no relatives in this • country. She, together with her husband came TErom the Stages about- the year 1900 and settled in Greenwood where they erected a building originally intended for a hotel. - Afterwards this was opened *by them as a rooming house owing to the fact Eihat Greenwood wa>il by this time on the decline. They lived in Green wood ten years bu^ on account of continued disputes between- the couple, Mrs. McBride moved to' Coalmont in the fall of 1909. The fiieral service will be conducted at Coalmont this afternoon by Father Jas. Wagner, of Penticton:, immediately after the ^arrival of the K. V. R. /,rain. The body will be interred in the Grahite Creek cemetery. Funeral arrangements are in the hands of Mr. W. F. Hazzard. Fatal Accident ft,. At Allenty Mill A fatal accident occured at the Allenby Mill last evening when one of the employee^ Mr. Wm. Robertson, fell into one of IJie big scoops and was literally cut to pieces. Provincial Coroner Dr. D. McCaffrey was called to the scene of the accident •last n'ght and will conduct an inquest this afternoon. sfpl Mr. Robertson was a married, man and leaves a wife and small fam^y, with whom much 'sympathy is'-;'felt.

I Additional Sum of $600 Needed For Its Installaton HSI The steam .heating plant for the Princeton General Hospital has arrived and is ready for installation. Hitherto the hospital haA,'been warmed by a hot air sys em which has proved very inadequate to the needs of the place. The Government haq made a grant of $1,500 to the Hospital Board toward the purchase and insallation of this much needed plant which cost about $1,400. However, although -he winter season is at hand and the additional warmth needed, the work of bringing 't into service cannot be proceeded with as a further sum of $600 is required to cover the cost of instalation. Govertaent Will Help Build Highway Link Hope=Princeton Plan Approved— Will Grant 40 Per Cent. Qf Cost The interesting information that the Dominion Government had approved plans forwardedyiry the B. C. Government for the construction of a highway from "Vancouver to Hope and from Hope (o Oaoroos, and would pay 40 per cent of the cost as soon as work was commenced thereon was made by Mr. H. H. Stevens, M. P., of Vancouver, before the Princeton Board of Trade, on Thursday, Nov. IS. Mr. Stevens explained to the Boaru that the Dominion Government had arranged to assist all t|he provinces with their road building programmes and had set aside certain moneys for that purpose. There was about one million and a quarter dollars allotted to B. C. and this would be used in paying 40 per cent, of construction of a number of highways, plans for which had been submitted by the B. C. Government and approved by the authorities at Ottawa.. Among these roads was one from Vancouver to Hope, thence to Osoyoos. and on to the Crows Nest. The money for .his would be paid as soon as construe tion ^commenced. Last spring, Mr. Stevens said, tihe late 'Senator Shatford enlisted his services and they took up the matter of this road with tjhe authorities with good results. ^ Personally he .was strongly in favor of the construction of the road from Hope to Princeton as soon as possible. The low cost of building this road by which the interior would be linked up with the coast, rendered it imperative that the work be undertaken with as little delay as possible. As regards the Fraser Canyon route, he considered that the time would come when that and many other roads would be opened up. It had been alleged, he said, that owing to snow on the summit the road would be closed against traffic, for a good portion of the year and he wished to know if this was really the case. Mr. A. E. Howse explained that the Copper Mountain road was at a higher elevation than the summit on the Hope-Princeton road and had been kept.open all winter.;- The Hope- Princeton road could easily be kept open all the year round. Mr. Stevens promised the Board his continued support in this matter. He further promised to again tatfe up the subject of the running of a through - mail coach - on trains frofi Nelson to Vancouver. It was explained in 't'his connection that at present a mail coach was put on the train from Nelson to Midway where it is taken off. There was then no' mail coach with the train until Hope was reached, consequeEntly all towns between Midway and Hope suffered from serious delays in mail service. Mr. Stevens said that this subject should have prompt attention when he returned to the coast. HrE* Crime In Toronto. Toronto, Nov. 8—Gunmen, robbersj, house breakers and automobilfe thieves, have been showing unusual activity in Toronto. One man wajs held up and robbed; 18 motor cars were stolen temporarily1; many ihqusejs were entered while the occupants were at church a£id jewels and money stolen. !«8SS FirskrSnew FalfXV J. A. McKelvie Wins. Yale Riding Seat Government Majority, However, Was Cut Down To a 3|| Low Figure Mr. J. A. McKelvie carried o?f the laurels) at the Federal by-electi6n for tihe Yale constituency on Monday last, and thus the seat was retained by .he Government, but with a considerably demindshed majority. 'The fight between Mr. McKelvie, representing the Liberal IConservative faction and Col. Edgett, who was supported by the Soldier^', Farmers, Liberal and Labor organizations was a clean and manly one throughout and on polling day matters were sufficiently well balanced to maintain a high pitch of excitement. Bite The laitest returns available se: the majority in favor of EMr. McKelvie at 430. I ,In Pifnceton 294 vojfes appeared at the polling station, me main room of tihe Cour; House arro after the count wai 3 made by Col. Edgett was declared *at the head of the poll with a majority of 24 votes. Two ballot papers were spoiled; 158 votes were cast in favor of Col. Edgett and 134 for Mr. McKelvie. A new feature was that of the appearance of lady officials in the polling station. Mrs. J. M. Wright and Mr. A. N. Reston were the presiding officers!; Mrs. L. Pilkington and Mr. F. Barber acted jas polling clerks, whilst Messrs. V. Rider and Geo. Bennett the scrutineers. The next largest vote in the Simil- kameen was polled at Keremeoa where Mr. McKelvie received a n$aj-' ority of 104. The total vote cast was 216,; 160 for Mr. McKelvie and 56 for Col. Edgeftt. Cawston, which had a polling station for the first time»4nthe history of the district poJi-effElOl votes; 53 for Mr. McKelvie and .48 for Col. Edgett, giv)ing Mr. McKelvie a narrow major ity Hhere of 5 votes. Hedley came next with a poll of 85 votes; 30 I for Coh Edgett and 55 for Mr. McKelvie who thus waa ahead another 25 votes. Copper Mountain was a tie with nine votes for each candidate as was also Allenby at which place 2S votes were cast On both s^des. Getting Posted On '; Princeton Questions E, J. Chambers Discusses Matters Of Local Interest With Boars of Trade 0 * The Jirst feinow ot the' ffeasfin-''feU.in .PrincewQ this morning, .e3*?^ Mr. E. J. Chambers, Liberal nominee for the Similkameen gave the Princeton Board of Trade assurance of his hearty co-operation, in eventt of his election, in the matter of promoting tihe construction of the Hope- Princeton road, at a meeting arranged between him and the Board on Friday last. Many aspec p of the quesition aj presented by Mr. P. W. Gregory, the secretary-treasurer, were new to Mr. Chambers who made careful enquiry on some of the essential points. The detail^, he pointed out, could better -be gone into by him at a »la\ter date if he proved successful a( the election. He freely expressed the opinion that the Hope |Pr(:ncton route was the only fesable proposition and the Board could rest assured that he would give it h%; full support;. On the questions of financial assistance for hospitals he expressed himself in favor of a special tax, levied on all non-taxpayerfca, to assist hospitals and schools. He promised also, if elected, to take up the matter of the district -extending toward Yale the en* of the present! Summers Creek road. This district contained a nuknber of-ranchefj, served only by an inadequate trail leading to the Summers Creek road and thence to Princeton which is the natural and only supply points forHhat disE>rict. It is outside of the Similkameen con- constituency and belongs to Yale. Tbe ranchers were promised a road ten year's) ago but after it had been built to the boundary of the Similkameen nothing further was done, the maititer being one of indifference in Yale which is inaccessable from that part% the country. Mr. Chambers said that*this' subject should have his attention ati th§ tiipe of re- <^stributioifca' Mr. and Mrs. J. C. Kennedy, of Keremeos, are visitors in town for a few days. Mr. J. L.

PILKINGTON, Manager Friday Nov. 26, 1920 THE BYE-ELECTION ||| After a sharp, clean encounter the Yale seat: was retained by the nominee on the Government side, on Mon day last, but Mr. J. A. MeKelvie's majority was shorne rather close as compared with the majority ob.atned by Hon. Martin Burrell, on the occasion when he was sent to Ottawa to represent this constituency. Mr. Mc Kelvie had the advantage of being well known and having many years of experience in the costituency. His candidature was also greatly as^ sisted by the recent visit of Premier Meighen: His supporters, and intact many oi his opponents, looked upon it as a foregone conclusion Lrat he would carry the day and it is hardly too much to sjay that the number of votes cast in favor of Col. Edge, it caused quite a flutter of excitement in the ranks of the. LLberal-Con- servatives. Col. Edgett put up a game fight from start to finish 'ind on the day of election it was a neck to neck; run. Vernon, Keremeos and reach- land were Mr. MeKelvie's strongholds? and h%3 election was due to ;he large majorities he obtained in those places.? In Penticton, to the surprise of many, Col. Edgett was given a majority of five votes and, in West Summerlanl 386. At Cawston, where a polling booth was opened for the first' time, there was a total of 101 votes I'aa-t, a majority of five only being cast in favor of Mr. McKelvie.

What are they going to^^^Wiith r.jae tools they have been using^hfoughout the summer montbs^P? One of the factors entering initoj the cost of farm production is the outlay for machinery. The present high prices of equipment are a serious cause of con^plainjt; from the farming- intereafls, and yet many farmers are content to leave their machinery and implements- exposed to the weather, often in the field where last used. In a manufacturing plant, where all machines are under cover and well taken care of, 10 per cent depreciation ' is written off annually. What- then, must unprotected machinery suffer? High prices for farm produce have I been to a certain extent conducive to carlessness in the costs of farming. The lowering of prices will compel a closer scrutiny of farm expenses, and one of the important items will be cos$ of machinery and repairs. ■ Protection of the equipment from weather will largely reduce repair bills. At the end of the. season, all . wearing parts of the machines should be well greased, accumulations of dust removed, and they should . be placed under cover. An implement shed will quickly pay for itself in saving in outlay for repairs, apar• < from 'the fact that it facilities cleaning, repainting or repairing machinery during spare time. t Seasons and weather willnot wait for farm machinery that is unready, and a heavy loiis may often be the result. To •heufincreasing number of farmers who are keeping accounts of their farming operations, tMji item of upkeep" of plant will appear as an outstanding and largely avoidable ex-- pense and the more general keeping of farm accounts may directly effect ithe reducti A Stocking Doll The doll is made of a white stock- i ing leg cut eleven inches long, and slit for a space of three'inches along one seam and up the opposite side to make the legs.

In 1882, a fort- was bufit at "Pile of Bones," J men of the force are usually men ot now Regina. The government buildings were soon erected and in 1883, it. was made the head quarter of the force for Canada with Commissioner Perry in charge. From 1874 until 1879, there was not a man "molested or killed until Constable Greybourne was murdered by one of* the Blood Indians. With the disappearance of the buffalo, there was almost famine among the Indians and the police had a great work in feeding many thousands. The Indians killed the settlers' cattle amd so great did the evil become that many of the settlers moved across the boundary. E-^S Early last year,- the police force had fallen to about 500 men as the result of drafts for the various theatres of war.

With the exception of apples, grapes and pears there are no fruits of our own production which can be called winter fruits, but of these three sorts every householder may have an abundant supply in good condition until at least the middle of the winter. Three prime requisites are nece-s sary to keep in mind when laying in a supply of fruit for winter. The first is the selection of the proper variety or varieties; the second is the selection of only firm fruits, free from bruises- and disease or insect injury; and the third is proper conditions of storage! | ' With regard to the first, the follow- j ing is a list of winter varieties of ap-1 pies, pears and grapes which, when) free from disease and injury and stor- j ed under proper conditions, will keep] anywhere from January up tO'May. Well-known winter varieties of apples of good quality: Mcintosh, November to January; Fameuse, October to January 1st; Rhode Island Greening, December, to February; King of Tompkins, November to February; Wagener, November to February; Northern Spy, January to May; Golden Russet, January to May. j The above varieties are all good j and cover the entire winter season if pfoper selection is made. Among pears., the following are de-j sirable for winter use: Josephine, mid-winter; Kieffer (rather ! pooor quality), October to January; I Lawrence, December; Winter Nelis, I mid-winter. Grapes.—Normally the grape is not! a winter fruit, but, stored under good j conditions, the few varieties mention-1 ed here may be successfully kept until the last of February: Herbert, Barry, Vergennes, Agawam, Lindley. Storing.—In the storage of all fruits a cold, moderately moist room is necessary. Fruit stored in a dry, warm cellar will not keep. Storing at as near freezing as possible, without allowing the temperature to drop to 33 degrees F.; will insure the maximum time for the retention of the quality of the product. By wrapping apples and pears in paper and then placing in boxes which are covered the juiciness and firmness of the fruit is easier to retain. This is especially true of the Golden Russet, one of the best keeping apples but one .liable to shrivel if kept in any place but a cold, moist cellar. Wrapping is a great help in keeping Rus* sets.

Keremeos, Nov. 20.—Mr. Harry Tidy presided over a large gathering in the town hall this afternoon, when addresses' were delivered by Mr. E. J. Chambers, Penticton, Liberal candidate for the" Similkameen district at the forthcoming provincial election, Mrs. Ralph Smith, M. P., and Sergt.- Major Jimmy Robinson, of Vancouver. Mr. EEL J. Chambers outlined briefly the history of the irrigated lands in the Okanagan valley and said that he expected the same history would apply to this district. In most cases the land companies with the subsidiary water company, after the land had all been sold became financially embarrassed and the government had to bring in legislation providing money to help. It was on account of this that the government commenced the development work of the Southern Okanagan. The development of that district was the chief argument of the people of the Similkameen valley for the construction of the Hope-Princeton roaEd, he said. Speaking on the Moderation question, Mr. Chambers said he always had been a prohobitionist, but the people had expressed themselves in favor of government control and he thought it was the duty of any man elected to a seat in the House to support legislation desired by the people. It would be a difficult task, he said, to frame a bill which would allow a little drink j for each person but prevent its abuse. I No matter how fine a Moderation AcE was produced it would be a complete I failure if it suffered the same lack of j enforcement as the Prohibition Act. | He did not think it was right for the attorney-general's department to have been criticized so severely. The Prohibition Act did not have the full moral support of the people, therefore could not be well enfofced. Mrs. Ralph Smith gave an outline of what she considered were the reasons that women should vote in favor of the Oliver government. She pointed out that it was the Oliver government that granted the franchise to women in April, 1917, permitting Tshein to become members of.sparliament, judges, niayors, reeves, councillors, etc. it was by means of this franchise that she was enabled to fill the vacancy in the House caused by the death of her husband. She was elected as an Independent and had realized every plank in her platform with one exception, in three short sessions. Every piece of legislation required the axv j liture of public funds and affected every man, woman and child in the province. She then gave a detailed account of this legislation, which, included the Minimum Wage Act, Equal Guardianship Act, an act wiping out the privilege of a girl of twelve years of age and a boy of fourteen years of age carrying without their mother's consent, an act providing homes for mentally deficient and subnormal children, a measure creating the position of superintendent of neglected children and making provision for the proper care of adopted children, and the Testator's Family Maintenance Act. Regarding the Mothers' Pensions Act, she said she had no apology to offer because it made the same provision for the unmarried mother as it, did for the married one. "To step i aside is human," she said, "ajid to forgive divine, and I wish to Cod there was more divinity in the most of us." In speaking of the Minimum Wage Act, she said that most legislation had been "fathered" to death, but the Minimum Wage Act had both a father and a mother. The attorney general, introduced the bill in the House because it required the expenditure of public money, but he handed it over to her to pilot it through its second reading. She was glad to know that this bill had both a father and a mother. She maintained that the Oliver government had stood nobly by the women and children and had done much for the home and province. Sergt.-Major Jimmy Robinson spoke of' the political situation as it affected returned soldiers and maintained that the Oliver government of B. C. had done more for the returned men than any other province in the Dominion. IN AND OUT OF irect taxation and Ire-establishment Mr. H. H. Stevens, M.P., and Col.

P., and Colonel Matthews, of Merritt, addressed an interested audience this afternoon at the Cawston school house, in the- interest of Mr. J. Jl. MacKelvie, the winning candidate for the Yale riding at the Federal by-election on Monday. Mr. F. L. Gimby occupied the chair. In the course of his remarks Mr. Stevens pointed out the conditions existing here regarding the tariff question. There was, he said, a great fruit growing country lying south of BritisTi Columbia. It was an older country and well developed, while the fruit industry in the Similkameen and Okanagan valleys was only in its infancy. All the first-class, fancy Washington fruit was sent to the eastern cities —Omaha, Chicago, New York—where it was sold at top-notch prices, whereas the poorer quality fruit was sent to the towns of the prairie provinces where much of it was sold at less than cost price, namely 35 cents a box. The National Liberal Conservative government was responsible for stopping this wholesale dumpage upon our markets. Mr. MacKelvie had pledged himself to support the principles of that government, particularly protection. On the other hand, Col. Edgett bad pledged himself to support Mr. MacKenzie King, whose proposition was to take duty off of food altogether, also for tariff based on the old i reciprocity pact which specially men-i tioned free fruit. "The continued development of the i fruit industry in this valley," he said,! "will be a tremendous contribution to j the prosperity of British Columbia, which in turn is a large contribution to the prosperity of Canada. The ul- j timate development of the Dominion j is of far more importance than any temporary advantage to any one section." He then went on to deal with the charge which had been made that the government was not fair in the question of taxes. "The business profits tax," he said, "has been higher than it is at present, but even now it is 20 per cent, on profits in excess of 10 per cent, and not exceeding 15 per cent. It is 30 per | J cent, on all profits over 15 per cent, and not exceeding 20 per cent.; 50 per cent, on profits in excess of 20 per ! cent, and not exceeding 30 per cent.; I and 60 per cent, on all profits in ex-! cess of 30 per cent." By order-in-council the government! took as a tax 50 per cent, of all pro-'l fits of packers between 7 per cental and 15 per cent; and took all profits over 15 per cent., and the net resort? was that the maximum profit the»pack ers could keep was less than 10 per cent. "This government has levied on large incomes the largest tax imposed by any country in the world and all income taxes are 5 per cent, more tEbran in the United States." He gave figures showing that the tax was far more severe in proportion on the large incomes than it was on the small incomes. The. duty, he pointed out, is now lower than ever before in the history of Canada and where would be the i wisdom of taking away that duty and making the burden of direct taxation heavier, when it was already as heavy as the people could bear. Col. Matthews, who was in com- nand of\the 8th Battalion, Winnipeg Rifles, stated that, when the armistice ,vas signed, 400,000 men had to be brought home and re-established. The government had no precedent either in its own history or that of European countries, but simply started in on the work of re-establishment. Thel majority of the men were well satis- j c'ied with the assistance they had re- j ceived but a few that were not satis- j Eied had been.making a lot of noise. About 50,000 men have been passed M" as qualified to have land; of these the :" greater number are- settled. Approxi-;] mately 35,000 of them have had loans I which loans have cost the govern-: ment $90,000,000. About 2,000,000 ac-j res had been utilized in this way, i which means direct or indirect bene- j at to the nation. Over 425,000 returned men had been' medically treated, 90,000 of them de.i- J ally treated as well. Fifty thousand I incapacitated for pre-war occupations j have been trained or are in training for new. useful occupations. Of these 30,000 are in employment, 39 per cent.! of them having already proven satis-1 factory and only 11 per cent, turned down as inefficient. Two hundred thousand undisabled men have been | placed, in permanent employment. Life insurance is.granted to returned! men up to $5,000; this probably will be raised. The government spent $8,000,000 last winter for unemployed men. The total amount expended by the government on re-establishment up to the present time has been $1(50,- 000,000. Surely it cannot be accused of reactionary methods.

And the mue4c of the river Speaks a language few may know I am treaoherpus> I am mighty, Wfiilst I glide now fasi j now slow. Listen to fie roar of rapids! Tis a language plain to hear, Speaks of mighty conquests, That— We thi^ik of Hiawatha of all that he beld dear. Now she glfdes along green meadows, Speaks a language, all may know; Talks of flowers, birds and blue skies, Gently gliding soft and slow. And we look around about us, And we know, that God is good; For lie created coui^'less beauties, To enjoy Ihem if we would. —Joy Akin m When all is said and done—1 When the last impassioned words of oratory flung from the rostrum have ceased to echo from the walls of meeting house and hall—when all criticism of the present Liberal administration has been made—when all promises of the opposition candidates have been solemnly avowed— You cannot overcome nor deny the solid fact that— THE OLIVER GOVERNMENT has given British Columbia four years of the safest, sanest, most efficient business administration the Province has ever had. It will be in your best interests to vote for all Liberal Candidates on December 1st.

There had also come a time, when there would have to be a readjustment in the ma ter of the num- jr of civil servants employed at Vic- .jria. There were many people, vir- taally civil servants, who did not come under the Civil Service Ace and technically they did not appear as civil servants, but in reality the Par- liamen Buildings swarmed with them. The increase, in the last three years was equal to the total number employed in 1916. Other subjects dealt witih' by this speaker were the Government's land settlement policy, the cost of advertising recent land sales and the disposition of tubercular cattle, iron and coal prospecting and "the investigation of oil resources in the Peace River country. In reply to a question on :<he subject of moderation Mr. McKenzie said that the platform of the Moderation League met almost entirely with his approval. Mr. Bowser had given a brief outline of the liquor law he proposed to enact if elec ed and the Oliver government should have done the same. No law, however good, would be of any real value unless the people supported it whole heart- edly. Asked his view on the suject of an eight hour day act,, he said he was in favor but it was hardly probable that B. C. would tak this ac:ion alone. If the other .provinces' were in favor of an "eight hour day it would become a Dominion matter. CONSTRUCTING FIRE PROOF AEROPLANES Germany was just about ready, at the time the armistice was declared to launch a tremendous aerial offensive by means of a fleet of aeroplanes which had been perfected after months of experiments and tests. These machines—which today stand, nearly ready for service, in the former Zeppelin works at Staaken, near Berlin—would probably have caused a revolution in flying,, for they are constituted from nose to tail and wing tip to wing tip almost entirely of aluminum and, therefore, are immune from that greatest of aerial danger: burning. The only part of their construction not aluminum is a small bit of 'the wing, the part that tilts and tips to give the machine upward or downward direction. And the armistice came just in ti me to halt experiments that should have eliminated even this bit of infammable material and made the machine every bit aluminum.
