All welcome PLEASE PAY UP We Have Been Burned Out and Need the Money Badly As a general rule subscribers to the Review are prompt in paying their subscriptions, but there are quite a few who seem to forget that it costs something to print a paper, even a modest effort like The Review. To the latter we would make the request that they liquidate iheir indebtedness as soon ai they can find it convenient to do ro. If they owe two or three years and feel thev canuot afford to pay it all at the preseut time, surely they can arrange to pay at least half the amount, This notice is for all who are behind iu the payment of their subscriptions.

A few weeks ago the greal damage done by a waterside fire In Vancouver was largely due to the r.on-provihion of a water float for IlKhtitiK this class of lire. It would therefore seem that Vancouver and Courtenay have something in com inon,��� und Vancouver, we are VOl'tig.. Quite a stir lias been aroused by tlie wholesale enlistment of Comox Valley men for service with the Imperial force., recently. Simultaneously, the Kaiser has appealed to tlle Oerman people to leave no s'one unturned to save the Fatherland, for the Russian army has been rejuvenated, the Italians are giving the Austriaus all they can handle, iiie French have shewn a wonderful faculty for recovery from previous 'smashing" German blows, and most wonderful of all the llritish have not only an army but splendid artillery as well, These are great admissions from tlie WarI,ord, and we can only say in the .parlance of one of friend Idiens' valued ac. quaintances "nah yertalking Hill,'1 ��� - ������ To his many crimes as head of the Huns, the Kaiser has added the coldblooded minder of Capt, l-'ryatt who to save his ship rammed a German submarine instead of waiting lor il lo sink him, The llritish people are patient, but like love, "suifereth long" but reprisals will surely follow tlie rising indignation British prisoners have been done to death, Miss Cavell was murdered, war has been waned against women und children, and these are but a lew ot many charges. In vivid contrast,llle German prisoners have been treated better than in the rank*, of llieir own army, and the German civilians both in Canada nud Britain have enjoyed equal privileges with our own people, The German atrocities will lay these hitler open to reprisals, and if they are wise, they will use their influence with then own nation lo have the atrocities stopped, on peril ol their own skins. The men of Comox have done well, to have come forward at such a time, and no doubt, the German information service will hear about it, and form its own conclusions. Notes by the Way.

Hriiish traditions and customs wll'cll have heen established for centuries, and which are dear to the heart ot every Britisher, as ihey represent iu II im the very foundation of that government, i-.lil.li he believes to lie the freest on the face of the earth, are thrown to tilt- ground and trampled iu the dust id the B, C. Prohibltlou Act. 'i'his phase of the referendum legislation on which the electors will vote ou Sept, 14th should he carefully investigated by every loyal Hriiish subject. A fundamental principle of the private life of every Britisher is that "A man's home Is his castle." and the sentiment expressed by this motto is dear to the heart of everv man who enjoys the protection of the British flag. The B. C Prohibition Act, without the slightest regard for this just and dearly cherished right of the subject, sets this principle absolutely at naught, and tramples it underfoot. Clause 48 of the Act provides that any officer of the law, provincial or local, may, at any time aud without a warrant, forcibly ,'break into the home of any citizen if he has the merest information of the least idea that the occupant of the house possesses liquor, Not onlv may he break into the home, but, having entered he may forcibly break open any closet, chest, box, or receptacle in the house. The question as to whether such methods are.in accoreauce with British traditions and custom will be answered at once by one little word which contains only two letters, Another fundamental rule of Britisii life is that when a man is attacked through the process of the law he has the right to know who is behind the prosecution. This just aud time-honored custom is absolutely thrown overboard by Clause 29 of the Prohibition A.t. This provides that when any person gets the idea in bis head that a citizen has liquor in his possession, lie can go to a constable and tell him what he thinks. On the basis of thi* casual conversation the constable can make a complaint and enter a prosecution in his own name The informer J runs no risk of his identity being disclosed as the Act specifically provides that the constable need not ''communicate You can feed the fire with utmost ease owing to the generous double feed doors no scattering of fuel and room to insert big chunks of wood.

Tarbell & Son, Courtenay the name of the person giving .-iii-.il information." What an.opportunity this clause opens for a man or woman getting square with a neighbor, with whom there mav be a neighborhood quarrel or where a neighborhood grudge exists? What a wide field this clause opens for the blackmailer, that type of person despised by all honoraole men? And yet such methods a.s Ihese are deliberate))' outlined in Ihe H, C. Prohibition Act. Is is it any wonder that even ardent prohibitionists who are also true British subjects, are refusing to approve an Act containing such uu-British provisions, Another fundamental rule of Britisii law is that a man is innocent until he is proven guilty. The B. C. Prohibition Act seeks to overthrow this firmly established principle, its provisions stating that when prosecution is entered against a man on account of his hiving liquor in his possession, it _is up to the accused person to prove that his liquor was legally acquired and legally JJield, lu plain English, this provision means that a man is guilty until he proves himself innocent. Such legislation Is certainlv not only nn* British, but also a rank injustice. Only a few of the un-British provisions of this counterfeit Prohibition Bill are enumerated abeve. It is believed, however, that the mention of these few instances will arouse tbe electors to a sense of their duty as loyal subjects, true to British traditions and customs, to such an extent as will cause them to closely investigate the Act. In order that full opportunity may be given along this iine. the Merchants' Protective Association have issued a booklet which contains the full text of the Prohibition Act Copies of this pamphlet may be obtained on application to the Association at Room 24, Canada Life Bldg.

Canada contributed little outside of bacon and hams, Since the war broke out there have been continuous demands for meats of all kinds. En ornious supplies have been sent forward by the Argentine, Australia New Zealand, United States, and Uruguay. Some fairly large orders have also been placed in Canada Willi a view to studying tiie situation on the spot and acquiring in* formation fcr the direction of Caiia diau production, Mr. H. S. Arkell Assistant Live Stock Commissioner early in the year went to Englai d and Fiance, and on his return pr pared a report wliicli is amongst the most valuable and suggestive arti cles in the Agricultural War Book 1916, This report is also contained in Pamphlet No, 19 of the Live Stock Branch.

After an interesting trin1, however, it has been found that France is, and will continue to be, a good market for out- frozen beef: possibly also Italy. This is but a brief reference to .sonic of the chief points in Mr, Ar- ke! ', survey. It would seem, that vv'.iili tlie war lusts there will be an im leasing demand tor meats of all k'llds, for eggs, poultry and dairy products, particularly cheese. I After the war is over there will bei sonic readjustments that cannot now be foreseen, but though tlie enormous destruction of live slock in Europe, and the tre neiidous drains that have been made on the surplus products of the rest of the world, there must result an enhanced value in live stock of all kinds. There may be some uncertainty as to market conditions of grain after the war, but not so a.s to live stock and live stock products.
