THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 14, 1916 KEEPING THE RURAL SCHOOLS OPEN The attention of Tlie Press lias been called to thc fact lhat at least one of the rural schools in this district stands in danger of being forced to close il\" thc monev is nol forthcoming from the lax levy Lo keep il running. It seems that thc Government pays over lo the school boards of the rural schools the school tax money only when thc school laxes arc paid by lhc residents of the school district. II\" taxes arc delinquent and arc not collected by the Government lax collector, then lhc school dependent upon this tax levy must cither close its doors or find thc money in some oilier way. And yet, there arc no delinquent lax sales held by the Government and consequently many ratepayers are Jong in arrears and the schools short in cash. Separate the wheal from the chaff in thc prohibition controversy and Ibis is what,,.I. P.'s Weekly finds you have left of a law which is supposed to work a great reform by stopping the use of liquor. That liquor may be imported in quantities limited only by the ability of thc importer lo pay for the liquor. That there is no Restriction whatever upon drinking liquor nor becoming drunk. That your home is no longer your castle, for a constable without a warrant, may break into il on suspicion and search\"it at any lime of thc day or night. That thc poor man is discriminated against by thc law in favor of the rich man. That the passage of lhe proposed law will, bc a serious blow at the credit of the Province as a field for British investors. These arc cold incontrovertible facts. It is not a prohibition law, but an instrument of tyranny in the hands of narrow-gauge whiskey informers. It docs not restrict the use of liquor but it docs restrict the freedom of the subject and il violates the sanctity and privacy of the home. Surely a belter act than this can be devised. The prohibitionists can blame no onc but themselves for the lollies of this act. They could have had real prohibition if they had asked for il. Instead of a genuine reform, lhcy arc offering thc public a measure which docs not restrict drinking, yet lakes drinking completely out of public control. Come in and I'll show you why the Kootenay stays as good as new long after other ranges have to be repaired or replaced. 809 The trouble wilh mosl of politicians who arc always seeking lo serve lhe dear people, is lhal thc dear people have given Ihem loo much for nothing.

Onc sweetly reasonable preacher says lhe Vancouver newspapers arc worse lhan fallen women���������������������������lhc rest of his phrase is not nice for a decent paper to publish. Another parson says that a newspaper which accepts advertisements for liquor becomes a partner in the trallic and ergo, a partner with thc devil and a minority shareholder in hell. By the same reasoning it might bc inferred that a newspaper which publishes church notices gratis and columns of preachers' sermons mi������������������hl become a partner in salvation wilh a working interest in the pearly gates and golden pavements of the New Jerusalem.

Better order some now n( Thursday, September 14, 1916 THE ENDERBY PRESS AND WALKER'S WEEKLY- Dr. K. G. Macdonald Heard by Large Audience in Opera House Saturday evening last, Enderby Opera House was comfortably filled ���������������������������by a very good-natured audience to hear Mr. Chas. Macdonald, Liberal Federal candidate for South Vancouver, ancl Mr. K. C. Macdonald, Liberal candidate for lhe local House, speak in* the interests of the Liberal cause. Mr. Welsh, of Enderby spoke also, in the interest of the Prohibition parly, and Miss Seymour made a short, telling appeal in the inleresl of woman sull'rage. Mr. Poison took the platform in the interest of the Conservative candidate, but spoke more in the .inleresl of the Liberal cause. Prohibilion Urged In his remarks in favor of the Prohibition bill, Mr. Welsh said that while il was true the measure is nol a strictly prohibitive measure, il goes as far as it is within the province of British Columbia to go. He claimed that total prohibition was in the power of Ihe Dominion parliament only, and that it was the intention of lhe prohibitionists to go as far as they can in the different ���������������������������provinces ancl later lo appeal to lhe Dominion for couiitry-wiclfc prohibilion. The main thing to be gained by the local prohibition measure, he said, is that il will do away with the bar and lake oul of the business the element of personal gain from the sale of liquor. This, he was sure, was a big step in the right direction. The bill, he said, is the best in Canada, embracing as it does the best clauses in other prohibitive legislation in the Dominion an 19 paragraphs from the present liquor law in British Columbia. He did not feel that there was any cause for complaint against the bill bv prohibitionists, ancl thought the best indication of its effectiveness was to be found in the determined fight being put up by tbe liquor men to defeat the measure. He asked the support of the electors' on the grounds of national and community betterment in all lines. Woman Suffrage Appeal Speaking for woman suffrage, Miss Seymour made a particularly lucid statement of'the case, aiicl won . unstinted applause by her closing remarks in answer to the oft-repcated criticism from opponents of the measure, that there is no reason\" to believe the vote will improve the condition of the women or the country, since the vote, has not improved the condition of :the men or the country to any appreciable measure. In answer lo lhis criticism, Miss Seymour said, that, while it had to be admitted that the country did not show any marked benefit from the men having unrestricted voting privileges, still, this was the fault more of thc. men lhan of the weakness of the privilege. Men, she said, had failed to appreciate the value of suffrage, ancl had and were abusing the privilege, bv organizing into party camps ancl voting blindly for party and not for:country. If the women abused thc privilege in the same way after it is granted, it would be their own fault if they receive bul little benefit from it, just as it now is the fault of the men thai the vote means so little to them. She was certain this would not be thc case with the women, for she felt they would appreciate the respons- ibil'itv of the privilege ancl would make better use of the vote than do the men. She earnestly asked thc __suppqrt of the electors for the woman\" sitirr!fge~nieasurc.\" \" K. C. Macdonald a Surprise Friends in the audience of Mr. , 1\\. C. Macdonald,- political opponents as well as others, were most agrecablv surprised at the able manner in which he presented his arguments, the lucidity, of his remarks and the breadth and depth of his-prescntation as a whole. Mr. - -MacclonalcVwas:listened to intently from start to finish, nnd WQiithc good wishes of his audience it he did nol win their votes. Greal improvement was recognized in the man since hc lasl appeared as u candidate for lhc sulVragc ol the electors. Mr. Macdonald attacked thc hind policy of the McBridc-Bowser administration, and showed up* what he severely'criticised as unjust and illegal, the 'tying up of thousands of acres of valuable agncultoral land by the staking by power-or- attorney clause placed in the land Act by'the Provincial Government, ancl which, he claimed, allowed privileges under lhe Act which had been declared by the supreme court of British Columbia and the supreme court of Canada to be illegal and unjust. Thc immense areas of land grabbed by speculators under this Act, hc said, had been exposed bv the ministerial association ol tlie Province, in the pamphlet entitled \"The Crisis in B. C.\" He admitted that action had been brought by onc of the ministers of the Government against the publishers of lhc pamphlet for a libelous statement made in six lines \"of'the pamphlet, and damages had been given by the courl, bul, hc said, the charges made in the pamphlet were in the main correct and substantiated., by existing facts. .He criticised the railway policy of the administration, and referred lo it as a vole-getting policy sprung on the electors on the eve of an election, citing as the first clforl in this direction the Midway-Vernon road which was proposed some years ago, and upon which work was aclualy started jusl out of Vernon on the eve of another election, jusl as il i.s now heing started in almost the identical spot on what is now to bc the Kamloops to Vernon branch. He predicted lhal this work would slop, just as the oilier work had stopiied, immediately after election day' Mr. Macdonald criticised the action of the administration in endorsing the bonds of thc Canadian Northern to the tune of ������������������35,000 a mile, when it cost only $22,000 a mile to construct thc Shuswap and Okanagan line now running, and built some twenty years ago. Mr. Macdonald picked up thc published platform of ihe Liberal parly ancl read from il whal might be expected of his party if he was elected and thc Liberals were successful in snatching from lhc Conservatives the Government seats. Hc pointed lo what he termed ihe fatal mistakes of thc Conservative Government owing lo lhc overwhelming Government majority in the Provincial House, and hoped that if the Liberals did win Ihey would not have such an unwieldy majority as the present government has had. Hc pointed to lhe various royal commissions (appointed by the Government, costing $40,000 ancl -$50,000, ancl wanted to know if- the net results did not consist chiefly in giving soft, high-salaried positions to parly workers. At a cost of some $48,000 the administration brought down thc Farm Credits Act, which was the net result, of the Agricultural* Commission's findings, when as long ago as 1900 he said the. Liberal party had 'as \"onc of \"lhc.planks in its plalform cheap money for farmers based on the New Zealand Act. r \\ ; /���������������������������Reference was made to the report of-thc Indian .Commission,recently made, at a cost of a quarter of a million, dollars, and he quoted an independent Conservative newspaper of Montreal which asked who would read the report and who would act on it and answered its own 'questions with lhc onc word, \"nobody.\" Mr. Macdonald pointed lo the proven corruption in our political 'life, sparing neither Liberal nor Conservative in his denunciation. In Manitoba a Conservative premier and his ministers are before the criminal courts on charges of corruption; in Saskatchewan a Liberal premier ancl his ministers are in similar dillicully and some are paying the penally for their acts behind prison bars. In Alberta we hear of similar charges. And in British Columbia what have.avc? Dr.Young, Provincial secretary and minister of education, wilh 105.000 shares of coal stock given him for \"political consideration,\" yet permitted to resign from ihe Government. And, in our own constituency what do -we-find,Jicuasked.=Vl_ic_JuinJstcLi__oL agriculture caught in similar transactions in connection with thc Colonv Farm and permitted io resign. 'But this is not the worst of it. The party machine thrusts him again forward and you are asked to condone his action and return him as vour representative. Mr. Macdonald said il was not a parly \"'-question but a question of morality, and it was up to the voters to sav-whether or nol they are prepared lo do their part in helping in the purifying process. After brielly referring lo the effects of the patronage evil, Mr. Macdonald asked the electors to give him 'their support, promising, if elected, to serve the district honestly and without fear or favor. If defeated he fell lhal he would be as good a man as if elected. His record was before the people, and he was not afraid of a single acl hc had ever committed being laid bare and o lie red no apologies for his position as the candidate of his party in the present campaign. .Mr. Poison Makes His Choice Mr. S. Poison took the platform in the interest of the Conservative candidate. In so doing he spent some time in explaining the intricacies of his political position. He said he was a Conscrvative-Liberal-Social- ist���������������������������man of all parties. He said he was pleased to he at the meeting tonight. He enjoyed the freedom and good spirit of it all, and contrasted it with lhe Conservative meeting of the previous evening, which he said reminded him of the story of Daft Jimmy.* Jimmy was one of a gathering of people attending* a meeting something like that meeting. The speaker had been talking some time when he noticed everybody had gone to sleep. The speaker turned from his Gents' Furnishings topic and started scolding his hearers, telling them he saw all of them had gone to sleep except Daft Jimmy. \"Yes,\" piped up Jimmy, \"and if I wasn't Daft, I'd be asleep also.\" Naturally this story put his Liberal hearers in good spirits, and Mr. Poison continued. He hoped the Government after the impending election, would have a strong opposition, and he urged his hearers hot to let parly pull get everybody. Machine conventions nominate'certain men, not the men wanted by Ihe people, and then when it comes to voting, as parly followers, you have lo vote for thc machine-nominated man. He was of the opinion lhal we need more liberty in our politics. Mr. Poison then went after Mr. Macdonald, saying lhal when he was superintendent of Indian reserves he failed to establish a school on the Spallumcheen Indian' reserve. Hc had not proceeded far on this tack when he was interrupted by Mr. Worthington from llie audience, who intimated that Mr. Poison clid nol know what he was talking about; said Air. Macdonald went as far as to establish an Indian school and he, himself, for Mr. Macdonald, engaged a teacher for the'rndian children. This brought down thc house Air. Poison complained that hc could not be heard. \"Tell the truth, then,\" yelled a voice from the rear. \"I am telling the truth, so far as I know, it,\" was the reply of the opposition speaker. In a few minutes Air. Poison's al- lolccl time had-expired, and he concluded his remarks by staling that hc would hold a meeting in the Opera House Wednesday evening, when he would go into matters more fully. He wanted lo say, however, that he had used common sense so far as he had it ancl had concluded to choose Mr. Ellison as against Air. Macdonald, for hc believed we have too many professional men as our lawmakers ancl not enough farmers. Mr. Chas. Macdonald Closes Thc hour was late when Air. Chas. Alacdonald look the platform on behalf of the Liberal candidate. In his opening remarks he electrified his audience by neatly turning thc concluding remarks-of Air. Poison into capital for Air. Alacdonald. He said he had listened intently to Air. Poison as he briefly confessed having altered his politics ancl made his choice for Air. Ellison. There was no accounting for these,things, he said. Men had made a similar choice through all ages ancl shades of politics. Two* thousand years ago men-were asked.tloychoo.se be-, tween thc good and lhe bad; and they chose Barabbas instead of the Savior of Alen. Air. Alacdonald said'he was'very much opposed to too strong party allegiance, for Ihe reason that it was sure lo bring lack of purity in our politics. It matters not whether it be Liberal or Conservative, large majorities in legislative bodies are certain to bring conditions such as wc arc suffering from in many parts of Canada, Brilish Columbia in-l ; ~ \" eluded. He said the people have a ' Slrong and durable Misses and habit of blaming thc politicians, but Girls' school shoes, now on display, so far as hc could see the fault lies (at Speers. entirely will! lhe people themselves. \"Don't go about lhe country and say all parlies are corrupt. It is up lo you.\" When men do that which is nol right in politics, he said, turn Ihem out and keep them out. Air. Macdonald explained the Liberal side of the Vancouver plugging. He said the Liberals of Vancouver were the first to discover ���������������������������there-=was-erooked--work=going-onf and they were first to demand an investigation. There was much in connection wilh the plugging that was not yet understood, he said, We sell only the best grade of Coal Oil; Price, 3 Gallons for ONE DOLLAR WE CAN SUPPLY YOU WITH REPAIRS FOR ANY STOVE OR FURNACE.

The cry of Mr. Brewster'and Mr. Macdonald has been one of nial-adminislralion agairst the Conservative Government, yeL when the iven them al the opportunity was last session of the House lo expose lhe corruption of lhc Government, held hack. It must come. He did nol fear Ihe results lo the hotels of the Province, and declared when these gentlemen found it utterly im- thc bars are knocked out we shall j possible to place their finger upon a hour. He was assisted in llie Con-J have holds as sen-alive interests by Mr. .1. A.Mac- Japan. In answer lo the cry of the, ,..,,. -,,,,,,. -, edilor of Ihe Vernon News, liquor user lhal his personal liberty ndminislration, Mr. Mackelvie said ood as those of!sinn|c case'.. I Taking up the land policy of the u el vie, who presented in his accustomed lucid manner the many progressive measures passed by lhe'Bowser administration, on which the parly i.s again asking llie1.sull'rage of the people ol\" British Columbia. Mr. Ellison was preceded by Miss Seymour who again'made a telling appeal'on behalf of woman suH'ragc. Mr. Ellison Sure of Victory Mr. Kllison referred at length to Ihe positive, progressive work of the Conservative administration, in every phase of which Mr. Bowser and his colleagues exhibiled that unbounded faith in the counlry thai all men of 'power and leadership must have. He said Ihe Government had left no stone unturned in an honest clforl to bring prosperity lo the Province, and when lhe depression came, followed by ihe war, it caught the Government just where it caught the counlry as a whole. The work ol' extricating lhe Province, and placing business back upon a tinner basis has gone on month after month, and, he said, we stand today on lhe threshold of belter things. The changed conditions have made it necessary to readjust business looking to greater economy, and the task has not been an easy onc. But the work has been undertaken most courageously by the Premier and his ministers, and he felt that the people of thc Province would now reassert the confidence heretofore shown in lhe Government and would return Ihe Conservative candidates lo a man. Hc expressed his confidence in the eleclors of the North Okanagan, and said he was sure of being again elected to represent lhis district. He told of thc progress the Okanagan has made .since he was lirsl. elected to represent it. Eighteen years ago lie was able lo gel the munificent sum of -91,300 for the entire district, which Ihen extended as far son 1 h as the boundary line. Since ihen he had been able lo get S2;\"if>,000 for his constiluency. He.advised his hearers lo steer clear of the any proposed government that promises nothing more lhan Ihe Liberals have (bus far offered. He ciled the Agricultural Aid Acl as one of the measures put upon lhe statute books of the Province which musl bring greal good to the farming induslry in particular and Ihe Province generally, for, said lie, we cannot help the farmer without helping every other industry in the Province. His advice lo every man would be lo buy land Premier McBride and his ministers adopted' the principle that il was belter to use the wild resources of the Province in lhe building of roads and doing other development >vork in order lo bring inlo lhc Province a larger population. Il was therefore decided to dispose of thousands of *��������������������������� acres of* land in lhe north of the Province and with the proceeds'open up the,country so as to make settlement possible. In the working out of lhis policy the Government found that thousands of acres of valuable land were being held by speculators. From lhe sale of these lands the' Government realized some $13,000,000. A balance of $9,000,000 is still owing to lhe is being rcslricled, Mr. Howe said personal liberty did not consist in doing as you like but as you ought. Mr. Mackelvie Confident Tn his opening remarks, Mr. Mackelvie said lhat in all the years that he had from time to time appeared before an Endcrhy audience he never felt more justified in appealing for supnortfor Mr. Ellison wilh a stronger degree of confidence lhan at this lime. .If wc had in the Province a Liberal party, or even a few men of outstanding ability in the Liberal party, it would bc different. If IheyyoH'cred. anything of a constructive nature Iheir claims for support might then be listened to. But it must have occurred to all that not a single plank j owing lo the prevailing depression, (WANTED���������������������������A girl for light housc- of a plalform has been presented, it is possible thaVlhe Government] Y-������������������VJV Wi,,=es\\^10- Apply imme- ��������������������������� ��������������������������� ��������������������������� ' -j . . i cl lately to Mrs. A.

These lands taken back will bc reserved for soldiers returning from lhe fronl, and in addition lo the land, money will be raised to finance the soldiers while lhcy are bringing their land under cultivation. Mr. Mackelvie answered many of the charges made by Liberal speakers against the Government, all of which he showed to bc wilhoul merit. He went over again lhe particulars in connection with the Vancouver plugging scandal, giving the Conservative version as it. has been frequently told. In conclusion he asked the support of the eleclors for Mr. Price Ellison on the strength of whal he has done for this constituency in the ycars thai are passed. The Colony Farm transaction, he said, could he put down as a .mistake, on the part of Mr. Ellison. The benefits we have received at his hands as our representative at. Victoria, should outweigh- the mistake by him made. Government from these lands, and,!--: and not a constructive measure pro-) will have to take back from Ihe'l Differs with Dr. Sipprell In the Vancouver Province we find this characteristic letter from an Enderby citizen: Edilor Province,���������������������������I notice in your edition of Tuesday, Sept. alb, that Rev. Dr. Sipprell said: \"I stand here lo say lhal there is nol one sober man in Brilish Columbia who will vole for booze unless he is connected with lhc booze- business.\" Perhaps be thinks it i.s fashionable lo copy Rev. Billy Sunday, but I wish lo stale thai there is al least one man who i.s sober, always has been sober, and in no way, manner or form connected with Ihe liquor business, who will vote against lhe said bill, because I do not believe il will slop the drinking man or woman from having all or more lhan is good for them, and for various other reasons which would lake up too much of your valuable space to explain in full. I am entitled lo my opinion the same as Rev. Dr. Sinnrell is to his view. ���������������������������Whal is lhe \"mailer with these ministers. One says \"The Curse of God i.s on British Columbia.\" Another says \"he would sooner see bis son in his grave lhan see him smoking.\" Anolhcr says \"lhc newspapers are worse Lhan a fallen ���������������������������woman.\" And Ihen comes Dr. Sipprell. * 1 am, and have been a resident of this lown and dislrict for close on fourteen years, am 50 years, of age and was never under thc influence of liquor.

Mr. Ellison appealed lo his hearers for Iheir support. \"I know you will eleel me again,\" he concluded, \"I am jusl one of yourselves.\" Cim'lizatitm's Greatest Evil Mr. Howe, of Vancouver, spoke for lhe Prohibilion cause, lie was eloquent, lurid and livid, characterizing ihe dring Irallic as the greal- esl evil from which civilization has sulfered. lie asked Ihe support of every voter for the prohibition bill, lie admitted that lhe Acl lo bc veiled on does not prohibit entirely, but, be said, ii docs do away with lhe bar and the liquor slorc, and this is as I'uv as any province can go. Total prohibition, he said, must come from lhc Dominion itself. Thc bar, according lo Mr. Howe, is responsible for 50 lo 7a per cent of the cases of (.-rime in lhis Province. Therefore, if we can prohibit the bar we have accomplished a greal deal, and when lhis i.s done it is proposed lo go to Ihe Dominion Govcrniuenl and demand lolal prohibilion.
