Tay lor. , ' ��������� 1 At the earnest request of the Cana dian Red Cross, Mrj Herbert\" Hoover, director general of relief for Europe on behalf of the allied nations, came to Canada to launch'the appeal on behalf of the British empire war re lief fund. That fund is being raised throughout the British empire to combat disease and distressin Europe The Canadian Red Cross through all its provincial divisions will make the appeal in week of November 20---29. Mr. Hoover, who is recoguieed a the best authority ia the world upon European conditions, spoke with the quiet conviction of one whose message was sufficient in itself. In com mencing he said he felt some embarrassment lest his presence in Canada might be misinterpreted as urging the Ganadian people to further sacrifice. lie said he realized that the sacrifice of the Canadian people, individual by individual, had been far in excess of that of his own people, but he said he knew that the charity of the Canadian heart was inexhaustible, and he felt there would be no resentment against his coming to discuss with them- the prdblom that confronts the western hemisphere towards the east. ������������������. v ' 'To trie,' 'Mr. \"Hoover, said, \"the greatest problem of;, t^e human heart in the world today is this problem of a myriad of waifs and orphan hungry children through eastern and .'centra Europe. The slaughter of fifteen million men could not but have left millions of helpless and hungry children in its'track, and upon'their well being must depend the upbuilding of Europe. There are literally millions of children in those countries sunk so low'in destitution' that they can not be absorbed. They must receive ex- trordinary assistance \"We have found by experience that the cost of caring for a waif child is approximately $3.00 a month; that of the supplies that are required by ioi~ ports about $1,00 is needed,and therefore the dollar that we provide together with local support practically preserves the life of one child. It is not much of a sura���������SLOG per month per child���������and although the calls may be very considerable upon your people and upon ours, we still have somo������ thing aftar wo have cared for our children and our noighbor's children. \"Our present problem over- the forthcoming winter appears to be about 3,500,000 to 4,000,000 children We feel that if could find among all the nations 84,000,000 per month, we conld solve this problem Surely it is not much for a whole world to find, It is a heavy burden for charity, but it is so appealing in its necessity that I have no doubt that charity will find it. Thesechildren are the . obligation of every man arid woman in the west ern hemisphere, for we have suffered less, but beyond this they are a charge on the heart of the entire world. If we are to'preserve the foundations for the future stability of Europe, if we are to. keep opetr :the love of humanity, our duty is clear beforo us.\" . * V. or laborer������|*>He pointed out the importance of agriculture to this district by saying that if we had depended wholly on the smelting industry,our city would now be in the same position as Ph'oenix is in. As\" 75'percent/of the\" population of Canada were either engaged in farming or depended directly upon the farmers-for a living, it was only fair that a larger proportion of those who made the laws of the land should be actively engaged in that industry. He considered the farmer as capable of making laws for his own benefit and comfort as, the.banker or the lawyer or the capital is to legislate in his interest. The speaker concluded his address by drawing an ideal picture of rural life, and said that the peopleVen- gaged in the basic industry of the country were, as a rule,, entitled .to better < housing, more conveniences and more comforts of life, and these conditions could only- be brought about by proper legislation. Col. Edgett prefaced his speech by saying that this was his second visit to our city and he felt like an old timer here now. He answered Premier Meighen's criticism of his representing four parties by saying that it was better to ride four horses than to ride one to death. The speaker thought it possible for public officials to handle the people's funds without creating scan'dles. While overseas had handled sums running into millions for the government, and his account had been correct'to the last penny, He criticized the C N,It. deals and the government's- taxation policy, and bitterly attacked the ad minis* tration for iseuing the Ross rifles to the men at the commencement of the war. Thisinexcurable blunder, he said, had cost'the country many unnecessary lives. He advocated better housing for the returned men. Mr. Edgett answered Premier Meighen's attack on his platform by saying that he firmly believed that education Bhould be a matter of federel legislation, and that propor tional representation was entirely feasible. The government had con suls in Dearly every' port in the world, and it would not be unreasonable to have\" immigrants ex amined morally, physically and in tellectually by them before embark ation. t On the tariff question he said he did not believe in \"a high protection wall, but a moderate tariff to prevent inferior American fruit' from being dumped on this side of the Hue. The speaker closed' his remarks by paying a tribute to his opponent. The meeting closed with the singing.of the national, after which three hearty cheers and a tiger were given lor Col. Edgett.

To tlie Electors of the Yale Constituency In presenting myself to you ahd asking for your support at the coming Faderal By-election on Monday, November 22nd, I wish to emphasize the following points: The present Government was elected for the purpose of carrying the war to a successful conclusion, and there is no doubt in the mind of the people that they have long outlived their mandate. Their methods are autocratic and dictatorial, and by no means representative of the wishes of the country. Standing as an Independent Candidate, endorsed by Farmers, Veterans, Liberals, Labour and Independent Voters, it follows that my actions cannot be subject to the dictates of any political party. I stand* on my platform, which has appeared in the public press from time to time. The old political parties have failed to meet the requirements of the people, and to live up to their promises. The time has arrived in our history when the interests of Canada, as a whole, can best be served by men of independent^thought and action, who arc unfettered by party ties. Just legislation, regardless of its source, will receive my earnest support. You will be doing yourself and your country the best possible service by electiug me to represent your interests in the Federal house. You had faith in mc while overseas, and I trust that my record and and character display integrity sufficient to warrant you feeling that your Empire defenders are worthy to be your Empire builders. Relying on your loyal support and co-operation, Yours faithfully, C. E. EDGETT. 1 u tt 1 3 0 I i \\? 3&&B&������g 43 rgaffi 'rrr.'jir. mt SUN, GUAND FORKS, b. g. . AN INDEPENDENT NEWSPAPER G.

FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 12, 1920 -MJ., Bowser's Cranb'rook speech did not win any votes for the opposit on. What is the use of telling ari intelligent audience that the Oliver ad ministration is squandering the public funds, when it is well known that the province was in financial chaos when the Lib efals: assumed power and , that today, after piloting British Columbia through four years of the most strenuous and critical times ever known in the British empire, the bonds' of the province.are selling .at a premium?. The Conservatives were in control of British Columbia for thirteen years. Mr. Bowser was the chief adviser of the government most of that. time. When it was voted out of office he was prime minister. Those thirteen. years were the most prosperous ever known on th's. continent.. The revenue literally flowed into, thp public treasury. And yet when the party relinquished office the successors found only an empty treasury and a legacy of debts and.obligations'. Yet on this record Mr. Bowser.asks the electors to return him to power,,on .the promise that he will do better if entrusted with the management of the province's business. But promises are easily broken. Actual records t?re now wanted. \" Comparing the records of the two leaders who are now appealing to the electors, the Oliver government should be returned to power by a very large majority. Ail borrowings of this class are repayable and are in the nature of investments. With the increase of debt-has come a. corresponding increase in the amount required semi-annually to meet interest and sinking fund obligations. With the increased cost of living has come a crrespondinh increase in the cost of labor and materials���������hence, the carry ing out of public works has become very ex pensive, while the cost of the maintenance of public institutions and of education hasgrown rapidly. Consideration of-all these and other, factors indicates that, while the revenues are satisfactory, careful and economical administration is imperatively necessary, and that the present is not a time when lavish expenditures would be justifiable. At the same time it must be recognized that an opportunity for increasing both population and production is opening before us, and that a policy of moderate borrowing and judicious expenditure for reproductive purposes is, under the conditions, true economy. ��������� _ ��������� Farmers and Public Life Jt.n.,this, rjding the Liberal candidate feels confident of victory, and\" there is no reason why he should feel otherwise; .The party , is pretty well organized here, but best- of all, the feeling of the people is that the Oliver administration has steered the province through very troublous times with credit to itself, and I ^t\" that it is entitled \"to a second term.- Per sonally Mr. Henniger has a large number of warm friends, and his business integrity, is unquestioned. He is, a vigorous fighter for what he believes to be right, and could be depended upon.to look after the interests of the district all times. An incident;\"that should Garry some weight in favor of,the Oliver government and himself occurred last summer, when, as chairman of the school board, he was instrumental in saving the city from erecting a new high school building. On the third page in this issue there are some introvertible facts why the women electors and those interested in educational work should vote for the Liberal candidate in this this riding on December 1. Next week, in the same space, we will have something of interest to say to another class of electors. LOAN AT A PREMIUM In his campaign manifesto Premier Oliver states that the financial credit of the province has been restored to the extent that the last issue of British Columbia bonds netted a premium of 3.351 per cent. Large additions, he says, have been made to the provincial debt, over $14,000,000 of which have been on account of Pacific Great Eastern railway, a legacy of debt and obligations inherited from the previous adminstration. Other borrowings have'been on account of: Loans to farmers. Improving agricultural lands for returned soldiers. \"��������� Aiding the municipality of South Vancouver. Protecting irrigation work in the dry belt. Providing houses for returned soldiers. Aid to returned soldiers aud others in establishing various industries. One should rejoice in all legitimate movements among farmers for cooperation to improve marketing and secure the best return of all they produce, said Sir John Willison in a recent speech. One can not doubt that the chief cooperative enterprises of the Grain Growers have been of great advantage-to western Canada even if one questions the wisdom and practicability of some of their political teaching. All that makes rural life more attractive and farming more profitable is of direct.social and national advantage, for, when all is. said, it is only by greater returns from agriculture and by fuller recognition of the social dignity of the calling that the population upon the land will be materially increased There have been too few farmers in the legislatures, in the house of commons, in the senate, in honorable places upon public commissions. I cannot think that a successful banker, orrail way builder, or manufacturer, or educationist holds a more honorable position in the community than a successful farmer or stock breeder. From generation to generation the supply of educationists, bankers, capitalists, and even the social leaders of the cities, is renewed and maintained by recruits from the country. It is idle to talk of classes in Canada e the hired man of today is the great employer of tomorrow, and when in a single generation the obscure youth from a back township becomes the possessor of millions or the.chief adviser of the crown in the national councils. The farms are... the nurseries of scholars -end statesmen, of the leaders; in finance and industry,'and where that happens the system of education is not a failure and democracy is not an imposture. ..

A British administrative official, stationed in a village in the interior of Africa, just after the outbreak of the war received the following telegram from his bureau chief: \"War declared. Arrest all enemy aliens at once.\" Two days later the bureau chief was handed the following reply: \"Have arrested two Frenchmen, a Dutchman, three Germans, two Americans, a Polander, three Rus sians and an Italian.

A Thrifty Book Lover There are singular discounts at.- lo.wed in the book trade that on one occasion were happily illustrated by Mark Twaiq. One day .while the humorist was connected with a publishing house he went to a bookcase and, picking up a volume, asked the price. He then suggested that, as a publisher, he was entitled to 50 ' per cent discount. To this the clerk assented. \"As 1 am also, the author of the book,\" said Mark Twain, \"it would appear that I am again entitled to 50 per cent discount.\" . i The clerk bowed. He could not deny it. \"And as I am a personal friend of the proprietor,\" Mark modestly:, continued, \"I presume you will allow me the usual 25 per cent discount? If so, I; think I may as well take the book. What's the taxi\" The clerk took out his pencil and figured industriously.

It is not.in the p'ower. of the provincial^ government to^prohibit importation. It'is exactly for that reason that the federal parliament amended the Scott act to' provide for a federal 'plebiscite, and this as were held in the three -prarie provinces and Nova Scotia recently.

This monopoly, it is stated here can not be granted by the federal authorities:-uhder existing federal legislation, and, it can safely be predicted that no further legislation along that line will be forthcoming The only way to restrict imports is by the same means as were.adopted by the four provinces above-mentioned, and if these plebiscites carried hot even the provincial government could ��������� import saviog for medicinal lind sacramental purposes, and government control as approved by-the recent referendum in British Colum bia!wou I d be but an empty 'phrase.\" After the show get a warm cup of coffee or a light lunch at the Imperial Billiard and Fool Parlors.

When you hear a bicycle owner say his tires are the original, not the imitation, he means that all other wired- on bicycle tires took Dunlop Tires for their model, because Dunlop was first in the field. The PneumaticTire Industry rests on the name \"Dunlop.\" And next in importance to your realizing that fact is the necessity for realizing this one: Dunlop Tires from the first���������1894���������were made by a patented, process.
