During the year the Royal Can- adian Mounted Police, tinder In- spector J. Fripps, book charge of law enforcement in the Province. The force is now functioning smoothly and has been highly com- plimented by temperance oranzzn- tions on the improvement effected in enforcing the prohibition law, as well as in the criorcemcnt generally of federal and provincial statutes.

a by-electlon was held during the ieear for the seat in the Provincial Legislature made vacant by the deaf-h of Hon. Ixonard MacNeill, Minister of Public Works. m. John MacNeili, the Liberal candidate, was returned with a majority of one vote over his Conservative oppon- ent, the late Mr. H. M. Downing, and on a recount this was sustained, three votes being disallowed on each side by the trial Judge, Judge In- 1118.11.

Some ‘important changes were made in Executive Council offices during the year. Hon. Mr, Stewart. K. (1., is now Provincial Secretary and Provineal Treasurer, as wcll as Pcmicr and Attorney General. Hon. G. Shelton Sharp holds the p011- folfo of Public Works and Highways. and Hem. Thomas MacNutt that of Agriculture, which was formerly held by Mr. Sharp. The changes we're made until-Out mWYmPi/IOB m the work of the various departments and have gfvefi general satisfaction.

It was a matter of concern to all our citizens that Premier Stewart was incapacitated by serious illness during the year. However, the Prem- ier has made satisfactory recovery, and all will hope that he will 1W8 continue in the euioymentof health and strength again.

For the first time since Confedcrl ation, Charlottetown was the sc/snc of a conference between the three Maritme Premiers. The visiting Premiers, Hon. C. D. Richards, K- C. of New Bninswick and H011.

Scotia, confer- red with Fremier Stewart at the iattcrs home on the sllbivcb 0f We rtgclfda of f-lic fortllconling Do- minion-Proviiiclal COMBTCIICQ all Ottawa, and reached conclusions which vmre mutually satisfactory. Earlier in the year there was a conference in the Confederation Chamber of the three Maritime Min- isters of Agriculture and their deputies, when a brief was ivrfllmmd for use at the Imperial Economic

Eirortg of the Dominion (lovem- merit to obtain a. 11mins 0f the British embargo on Canadian po- tutces were participated in by this province and by New Brunswick. The matter was presented to U10 authorities at London and later to the British delegates at the Imiifli‘ 111 Economic Conference. An examina- tion by an expert of the British Depntment of Agriculture was made of the cleaning of Maritime potatoes to prevent export of the Colorado beetle with potato silip- merits. The report of this official has not yet been "iublfshcd, and the question of lifting the emlmrilfl i5 still in abeyance.

Fixrther investigation was mad-c during the year into the nature of which has k-lied off tho

The oyster industry, once the moat important of Island fisheries. is again showing improvement under the federal system of leasing suit- uble areas. Progress was reported in this connection during the Unfortunattfl‘, the industry in Queen's County was affected this year by (he fact. that in certain Sections. the oysters were believed to be typhoid carrcrs, and several cases of typhoid were reported from this ‘alleged cause.

Despite pevalliug economic diffi- culties the mnvince gained increased publicity as r. summer tourist re- sort, the visitors including parties of school teachers from Central Can- ada. In addition, Charlottetown was the scene of a number of important conventions, including the 001N006.- tion of Royal Arch Masons of Prince Edward Island, Nova Sootza‘ and Newfoundland; aimual meet- ings of the Maritime Boards 0t Trade and the Maritime Gyro Clubs. Delegates to the Caufifih Chamber of Commerce convention at Halifax included Charlottetown in their pro-convention tour, the visitors being representative of all parts of the Dominion.

Among the individual visitors to the Province were Dr. J. L. Biggar, National (mmmissioner of the Can- adian Red Cross Society; Dr. Henry Mum-c, Slli)0l'llll(‘ild0iii? of Educa- tion for the Province of Nova.

As in other years, death has taken its toll during the past twelve months, and in many homes throughout the Province there are vacant chairs which are silent re- minders of the dread Engels visita- tion. Among those who passed away were Hon. Leonard MacNeill, Mr. Donald Nicholson, Hon. J. E Wyatt, K. 0., gr. J. S. Bag-nail, Mr. Robins Colweli, Mr. E. D.

Happy New Year!

The Winnipeg Free Press opens the year of its Diamond Jubilee with a. grand Happy New Year to its host of renders in fifty-eight tongues.

It is now five years since the Free Press, reviving an old idea conceived by it as long ago as 1877, began the custom of giving to its many constituents a. New Year's aalutatfon in the language of their country o1’ origin. The idea was eventually to extend a conr prehenslw and heart-v ahd many- tongued greeting that should in- clude, wii-hout exception, every language that could be spoken by a. Free Press reader, no matter how far across the world he had come lo reach the Canadian West. This aim, it is believed, was achiev-i ed inst New Year's Day, when the present total of fifty-eight tongues was attained. An invitation was

Some yearn ago physicians began to suspect that certain foods were responsible, just an certain foods are now known to cause asthma, hay fever, and some skin ailments. Dr. Albert H. Rowe, Oakland, California, for over ten years has been working on the theory that foods cause migraine. While admit- ting that there are other causes o! headache-eye strain, inflammation of the sinuses, infection from teeth, tonsils, intestine and gall bladder, inflammation of the kidneys-he be- lieves that a. large number of cases oi.’ migraine are due to certain foods.

In glivng the history of 180 pri- vate patients in which the outstand- ing symptom was headache he states that nearly 70 per cent 1e- ported that foods or other substanc-

Rather an unusual situation has been created lately by Plfildvllt Hoover's attempts to secure 00-09911 ation from Mr. Roosevelt in the realm of foreign affairs. In some quarters, the leader of the Demo- crats is being criticized for his failure to respond as readily as he might have, while others declare that until Mr. Roosevelt enters the White House it is unfair to BXDBM ifm w tie himself up to any line of action. One can wcil understand Mr. Hoovers position, of course. He has to face the problems today and he is anxious to avoid committing the country to any line of action that may be liable to repudiation after the Democrats assume power on March 4.

Sfnator Hull, ‘Tennessee Demo- crat, announced recently that he propoics to fake curly steps to se- cure action on his plan for recipro- cal lracio treaties with Canada and Grout Britain. SfiiiitlOl’ lluil is wor- ricd by the recent British Empire Conference. He thinks it is unfor- tunate that Grcat Britain was "forced into a policy that we had promulgated and led the world into by our increased (tariff) rates." There is no doubt that American business leaders and public men are anything but pleased by the de- cisions made at Ott-mvn. Few. how- ever, are frank enough to come out and say that the United States. in initiating the high tariff war, made a great mistake.
