SANl'I`A'I`ION

The Kansas Board of Health. so we are informed by

a United States exchange, has decreed that the public pen- holder must be abolished. The reason given is that some people, while sealing a letter or collecting their thoughts have a habit of .holding the pen in the mouth. and that thereby there is a danger of transporting disease germs to the next person who seals a letter or collects his thoughts in the same way. lt might be said just here that people who put a public pen holder in their mouth deserves all the germs they can get-and the chances are that the germs will get the worst of it. All the same it is doubtful if much evil can follow the common sense use of a public penholder, and it is a great convenience in post offices or other public places in which it may be necessary to use a pen. it is doubtful also if its discontinuance in the public offices in Kansas will be regarded very favorably by those who find, when about to address a letter. that they have left their fountain pen at home-if they had one.

It is quite possible to carry the germ hunting idea too

far. We cannot conveniently abolish the use of nickels and dimes because some people persist in putting them in their mouths. These, at least, are among the things that cannot be supplied on the "individual" plan and destroy- ed as soon as used.

There are many real dangers which ai little thoughtful-

ness might minimize, while there are many also which are unnecessarily placed in pc-oplc's way. Possibly thc source of greatest danger is the common school. Here children exchange pencils, books and other things, many of which have been held in the mouth or in a filthy pocket, and children will not readily be cured of the habit of cx- changing or "swapping,"

As a result of long continued preaching against the

use of thc common drinking cup in school the individual drinking cup has been introduced into many of our island schools and no sooner were they introduced than thc chiidrcn began “swapping” them, forgetful of the germ theory. ‘There are perhaps few germ carriers that can equal the common drinking cup and it is blamed, and we believe, justly, ofbeingat the bottom of many of the ob- scure cases of tuberculosis that neithcr home environ- ment nor heredity can account for. The individual cup, for thc reason that it is not individual but generally used in common by innocent children, is little better and ln ihose schools in which it has been introduced it should bc the teachers aim to make it really individual and to im- press upon childrcn the ncccssity of carrying out thc in- tention ot' its introduction.

in our city schools tho introduction of sanitary drink-

ing fountains would be in thc iinc of progress. The cost would be trifling and would bc more than compensated for in the satisfaction of knowing that at least one more and perhaps thc greatest danger to the health of the children had been removed. A few such fountains in public places in the city would bc a boon and would be appreciated by visitors as well as by citizens. One progressive citizen has installed a sanitary fountain at his place of business and he luis thc gratitude of many visitors to the city. if more of our business houses were to follow his example they would find it to their own interest as well ns a boon to their customers. in the market building particularly where crowds congregate on market days, such at fountain would fill a long felt want.

We trus t our city fathers, now that they arc laying

their plans and arranging their estimates for the coming year, will find a way to make this necessary addition to

FEELING THE PINCII

The war has now been in progress about 180 days. To

say nothing of the cost in hunmn life, for which i\o provi- ous war in thc history of thc world affords a parallel, the cost in actual money and monc_v's worth, is staggering. The cost is estimated nt $50,000,000 a day. This, multiplied by 180 will give a string of figures that will have no meaning ,even to a Rockefeller, and yet the cuormlty of thc cost in- duces questioning as to what is to come after the war, how settlements are to be effected, how thc bille are to be paid.

Prince Edward island. oi' whose productiveness and

progressiveness we sometimes boast. produces annually, in round numbers about $10,000,000. When we remember that, if we spent nothing, hoarded all our products ami "salted" the proceeds down for 11 war fund. it would rc- quire five years to lay by enough to pay for one day's fighting, it will give us n vague lden of .what war. means in

material cost alone.

How long can this expenditure be maintained? Those

who speak for thc nations involved say it can be kept up for years. They may be right as to that, but there ure signs of wear and tt-ar. Ono of them is the resignation of a Germnn_Minister of Finance for reasons relating to the second instalment ot' thc sincws of war- 8,250,000,000. According to accounts from Berlin. these reasons were serious enough to prompt his rctiremcnt.

Still more suggestive is the new ruling of` the British

Treasury forbidding capital issues to any part of the globe not included within the limits of the Empire. it is hardly mo much to say of this order that it startled the financial world. A Boston banker describes it as the most moment- ous announcement made in living memory. lie interprets. It. as a tacit admission that the richest of the combatants is beginning to feel the strain and needs all her money to help bear the burden. it will be remembered that n few days ago she lent Roumania $25,000_000 and that, apparent- ly. there is no limit to her resources.

CIQIMATE IN WAR ZDNE

...._-

Many are anxious to know something of the weather

under which our soldiers live in the trenches

and on the battlefields. A writer in the Review of Reviews gives a number of interesting facts from which we repro- duce the foliowing:-- ' The winds are prevaillngly from western quardrants, and therefore blow from great bodies of water-the Atlan- tic, the North Sea and the Baltic-giving to the adjacent

'lands much moisture and a. moderate range of tempera-

ture; and the weather is very changeable. under the in- fluence of a constant procession of "highs" and "lows" (anti-cyclones and cyclones). though hardly so change- able as in the Northeastern United States, because Euro- pean storm tracts tend to run far northward, over Scand- inavian and Northern Russia, so that the regions where fighting is now in progress often feels only the brief bor- der influcnce of these passing disturbances.

ln the western war zone the lowlandsbave virtually

a marine climate; the summers are cool, while winters are generally not cold, measured in terms of the ther- mometer, though they are so moist as to be extremely un- comfortable to men in the trenches. “Zone weather (ou the Fahrenheit scale) is not unknown in this region, though it occurs only at intervals of several years. Snow falls on several days each winter, but it is almost never heavy. The winters are cloudy and foggy. in the high- lands, such as the Ardennes and the Vosges, the winters are decidedly rlgorous,and the snow is often deep enough to interfere seriously with military operations. On the up- per slopes of the Vosges winter temperatures of 10 de- grees below zero (I-`ahr.), are not uncommon, and the snow lies here half the year round. Throughout the \vest~ ern war zone the temperature during an average summer rarely rises above 90, while hardly once in a decade does it rise to 95. All in ali, this region has cooler summers, milder winters, more clouds and fogs, and more frequent but lighter rainfall than the Northern United States.

The theatre of operations in the East has a transition

climate between the marine conditions of Western Eur- ope and the continental conditions of the interior of Russia. The summers are hotter and the winters much colder than in the region just described. The climate of East Prussia is somewhat tempered by winds from the Baltic, yet in an average winter there are from forty to fifty days on which the temperature does not rise above freezing in the after- noon, and there are from 110 to 140 nights in the year on which the thermometer falls below the freezing point. At Konigsbcrg thc temperature does not fail below zero nor rise above 80 in a normal year, but inland the range of temperature is much greater.

In Russia Poland snow lies on the ground from sixty

to eighty days in the year, and the rivers are generally icebound from the latter part of December to the beginning of March. Temperatures above 90 are not uncommon in summer.

Galicia has short, hot summers and long, cold winters.

The severity of the latter is especially due to the fact flint the Carpathians prevent the ingress of southerly winds. llrzeniysl has in recent years known a minimum tempera- ture of 13 below zero, and Lemberg 18 below, though in a normal winter the temperature rarely falls more than 5 or 6 degrees below zero in this province, except in the moun- tains. The snowfall is abundant.

A NEW FISHERIES QUESTION

A question has arisen between the Province of Quebec

and the Dominion Government with respect to the right to fish in tidal waters.

The ownl-rship of thc fisheries of thc waters of Cuundu

has twice in.-cii before thc ,ludicul tiommittcc of thc l'rlvy (`oun`cil, but in neither case was thc decision so clcar and comprciieusivc as to cover all the issues. In 1839, when thc first test wus liad,thcrc was left by thc Judicial (Iom- tnlttec a doubt as to whctlicr thc control of the tidal fisher- ies, apart from their regulation. was vested in the federal or the provincial governments. in the case of Qucbcc an understanding was reached whereby the administration of the fisheries of thc south shore of the St. Lawrence lliv~ er and Gulf and on thc north shore as far cast as Point dos Monts would he cared for by the province, whilc thc feder- al autiiorltics would continue to administer thosc cast of thc point mentioned. This arrangement continued till thc present ycar. _

in liilil, a case arose in which the Province of British

Coiunibia wus one party and tiic Dominion thc other. The Dominion made certain claims as proprietor of lands ced- cd to it by thc province. its position was in effect thnt of an individual who has purchased from thc Crown, as rc- presented in the province, and claimed as proprietor fish- ing and other rights that pertain to ownership. in thr- matter the issue affected only British Couimbia as a province, and it only in so fur as the lands in question were concerned. The Lord Chancellor, howcver, in concluding his opinion, made some general remarks on the right of the public to fish on the sea and its arms or in estuaries. und intimated that interference with such right could not bc within thc power of the province.

Evidently this was regarded by the Dominion us of

general application, and accordingly notice was glvcn on bchalf of thc Department of Naval Affairs, which has charge of the fisheries of Canada, that from January I. 1015, the administration of the tidnl fisheries of Quebec. controlled under the modus vivcndi by the province. would be taken over by the federal authorities, and that no one would henceforth be permitted to fish therein ox- ccpt under a federal license.

The Province of Quebec retorted to this with a

notice to the parties concerned that the British Columbia decision quoted did not apply generally, and that any per- son wishing to fish in the tidal waters of the gulf and river must apply for a license to the Department of Colonization, liiincs and Fisheries. The situation may be somewhat awkward for those concerned with the fisheries; but, pend- ing judgment on the issue, their case will doubtless be considered by each party to the dispute and the annoy- ance reduced to a minimum.

The isle of Mun, says the London Chronicle, has a code

ol laws entirely its own. The island has never been ruled by the laws of England. These happy Islanders have no armed forces to maintain, no income tax, death, estate or stamp duties to pay, and their customs dues are in most cases on a lower scale than in the United Kingdom. Many women. too, have special privileges. Every female adult, w idow or spiuster. in the isle of Man, whether she is owner, occupier or iodger, has a. vote for the House of Keys elections. Every widow enjoys half of her husband’s personal estate. and has a life interest in his real estate, and she cannot b e deprived of this by will; whilst her written consent must be- obtained to all transfers and deeds affecting ‘her hu|bsnd's property.

J. T. JENKINS.

Feb. 1, 1015.

Sir.-in your attack upon the Alli-

ance on the 28th Inst. you make free to say that the efforts of the Alliance Wbivh you term “political campaign- ing in the interests of temperauoe. has done, and is doing. incalculuble injury, H0! Dllly io the Province. but to the cause of temperance hero and else- where_"

(1) The Alliance has always be-

or favour. We believe that the iuten tion of the Legislature, when enacting the Prohibition Act, was to have offenders who ._ were convicted of violations of the Act punished accord- lug to its express provisions, and that no interference in the carrying out of its Provisions was ever intended to be tolerated. ln fact. the Act expressly' provides that any person who may interfere with any officer or officers in the discharge of their duties under the provisions of the Act, shall be deemed to be liable to a fine or lm- prisonment_

lt seems. however. that the idea of

the Guardian and of the Government is otherwise.

in your recent editorial you say:

"By the judicious exercise of the Sirtilgiii and the tcndci-ness. the :justice and the mercy of the law, the di ink evil in our Province- would

criticise this avowed policy of the Government. as set forth in me Guardian, as being distinctly opposed to the express provisions of the Act. and claims the further right to show by reference to specific cases, where this erroneous policy of the Govern- ment has been adopted, that the result claimed for it has signally failed. Moreover. we claim the right to show these facts and to criticise this policy and its result, without being accused of "political wire-pulling." and of "degenerating into a thinly veiled political campaign."

(2) On the 28th November, 1913, as

the result of information supplied by the Temperance Alliance. convictions for violations of the Prohibtion Act were obtained against four offenders. Dr Michael Donaiioe, of Peakes SUIUOII; Dr T. V. Grant, Cardigan; Dr A_. A; Allan, Cardigan; and ltichard Jenkins, Georgetown. The Act under which those convictions were made Sbeviflcaliy declares that, in default of payment of the penalty imposed f01'lhWii\l. the oft'ei'idct's shall be com- mitted to"jaii_ '

What are the facts in connection

with these cases? The flue against Richard Jenkins wilsfcollected on the 9th December 1913. Mr Jenkins has not since been convicted and no corn- plaints against hitnfhave since been ,received by any officials of thc Alli- 3.Il(,'1!_ '

Tin-_ lilies against the three other

Offenders have ucvnr yet been col- ioctcd. nor have the convictions against thctn been enforced, notwith- standing that Dr Douahoe, one of thc offenders, had boon previously con- victed of a violation of the Act.

As the result of further information

laid by the Alliance, Dr Allan and Dr Graut_wcrc. on tho 16th June, 1914, both again convicted of subsequent violations of thc Act. Not only have the convictions against these offend.

` ers made on the 28th November, 1912!,

remained uncolioctcd. 'but the later convictions of the 16th June, 1914, have also remained, and still remain, unenforcerl.

The "judicious cxercisc of the ten-

derness and the mercy of the law" in these cases was applied by the Attoiney General himself, and it may, U10l‘Uf.f€. be assumed that thcso canon may fairly be cited as a test. as to whcthor or not this plan of gn.; Government and of the Guardian for “reducing the drink evil in our Pro- vince to a minimum" is or is not effective.

it will be noted that in the cases of`

these four convictions, all made on U10 901110 day. thc policy adopted in the one casa of prompt enforcement Of U10 \“»0l\\'iCtiou, resulted in the oileutier going out of the liquor busi- ness, so far as the Alliance can ascor- iuin. while in two of_f_he other cases tho Governmcnt's policy 'of “tender- ness and mercy" has not had the snmo result. »

ln bringing these facts to the atten-

tion of the public, and in criticising U10 Dvllffy of the Government as ex- emplified in these and similar cases the Alliance feels that it is doing no- thing more than its plain duty, with- out rogard to any personal or political feeling whatever.

in your next issue we shall state

sonieothcr mntterswhicli the Alliance and its officials have been bringing to the attention of the public. in further refutation of the charges you have made against us. We are, sir, etc.

(ii The Guardian would much more

readily appreciate the Alliance offi- cials' newiouml zeal for thevadmini- stratiou of the law " without fear or favour," were it not for the fact that until recently/the Alliance officials themselves exercised the rights of royal clemency. Under the late Government all the -powers of the Governor and the Govemment uudor the Prohibition Act were unconstitu- uomdly delegated to the Alliance , oiilclais. and any appeal for mercy or ‘ mitigation of sentence had to be made to the Secretary of the Alliance. This usurpation of the royal prerosative was A scandal which the present Government put summary end to. and no_ doubt this had something to do witli the recent campaign.

LONDON. Jan. I8.-The study of' '-~l»0NDbN. Im. I0.-- The annual

imperial history ll! patriotic citizens of both sexo: to be undertaken in tho same spirit as voluntary military drill, was the novel ‘scheme launched’ yesterday by the Lelluo of Empire. 'I‘ho»RI|bt.' Honourable Sir Frederick- Pollmd. in introducing the schema. said that _whenever the end of the war comes. and onwhatever terms it cornea. it is certain that the British Empire will stand out. as a much more visibly important factor in the world than before. Not only special students but teachers and learners 'of history must revise and enlarge their whole attitude of mind in approaching the history of these kingdoms. Tbepart' played by the Dominions in the pres- ent.wer made it henceforth impossible to belittle their claim to have an effectual share in those affairs of state which concern their common advantage.

"Cana'da`s place in the war" was

the subject of n. lantern lecture' to-

night before the Farringdon Wardi

Civic Club by J. Obed. Smith. Cana- dian Superlntendent of Emigration. How, near the war had come 'to Canada was emphasised by a parallel drawn between the east coast raid and the threatened invasion of the Pacific coast. This latter had necessitated special measures of defence on both coasts of the Dominion. but happily 4.000 miles of border line could be left uudefeuded because of the friendly relations of Canada with the United States. Following a brief account of the Feuian raid of 1866. Mr Smith detailed what Canada ,was doing to help in the war in Europe by contrl-` buting troops, hospitals, foodstuffs and other aid. "Canadians are chips of the old block," concluded Mr Smith. “ They are determined to see the war through to thc bitter end. They are by no means anxious to fight for the sake of fighting, but they will welcome the day when militarism will. with such assistance as Canada can give, be only known in history as a horrible nightmare of the past."
