Autocratic Audacity

It is amazing the boldness with which Premier C.-\.\Il‘BEI_L seeks to delude the electors. Take for instance the Prohibition statistics lie iiibled on Friday. He clziims—“Estinlated savings by combining enforcement with Att0rliey—Gcl1- eral's department, $2,400,” whereas the actual es- timates passed for the adnlinistration of justice were $68,120 against $68,672.27 actually spent lost year, or an estimated saving of $552 on the whole department of Justice. Then with regard to the cuts in official salaries, these could have been made equally as well by the Collinlission as by the Government, so that in reality the aboli- tion of the Commission has meant nothing except to make the liquor business here govenllliclit controlled.

Justice LUCIEN CANNON, who presidedlat the Hull murder trial which dragged on for six weeks. and which had to do with the sixmen involved in the slaying of? a young bank clerk. The Journal is a. strong Conservative newspaper, while Mr. Justice CANNON was formerly a well- known Liberal member of Parliament and a Cab- inet Minister. During the period of his political career he was regarded as an intense partisan and a vigorous fighter. ' ‘

The lam-ital, in calling attention to the cap- able manner in which Mr. Justice CANNON pre- sided, pays a tribute not only to him but also to Canadian judges in general. Many of them before their elevation to the bench were keen political partisans, but as soon as they undertook ‘their judicial duties they instinctively became garbed in the traditions of British jurisprudence and discharged their duties with commendable ability z_ind impartiality.

“It is particularly gratifying" notes the Brantford E.i'pa.ri'!or in this instance, "to have a member of a F rerich-speaking province exalt British ideals of the administration of justice as

,A Great German

Dr. Huoo ECKENER, who has won great hon- ors for his German Fatherland through a decade of amazing Zeppelin flights, recently added an- other by flying the new dirigible Von Hinden- burg froni Germany to Rio de janeiro, carrying thirty-seven passengers and an automobile. His flight, says a New York exchange, got less notice than it deserved in American papers because they were full of the story about another German, facing execution in New Jersey. It got none at all in Germany, because HtTLER’s little Herr GOEBBELS, the Nazi propaganda minister, had sent out to all German papers this notice: “The name of Dr. Huco ECKENER will no longer be mentioned in newspapers and periodicals. No pictures or articles about him shall be printed.” This sentence of silcilcc was pronounced because Dr. ECKENER refused to participate ill propagati- da before the recent farcical clcction.

So, as far as the Gcrnlall press is coliccrilcd, Dr. ECKIENIER is dead. The rest of tile world will honor him as a master scientist and oilc of the boldest navigators of the modern era.

Dramatic Rescue Work

The old adage that truth is stranger than ‘fieflon is exemplified in the sensational efforts to rescue three Toronto men entomhed for a whole week in a Nova Scotia gold mine. Though not yet brought to the surface, the three men have been reached and are being fed liquid nour- ishment by means of a rubber tube while twenty feet above them rescue workers are sinking a shaft and preparing to rescue the vic- tims who are now definitely known to be safe and sound.

The story, as told in today's despatches, is- one of the most moving dramas in the whole history of the mining industry. The heroic

V labours of the rescue workers is comparable to, any acllicvelliellt performed on the field of! battle. As stated in the story, tllc chief difficulty of Illspcclnr l\ll£SSliRVE\' in charge of the rescue‘. work was to hold his volunteers ill check. "Mon .

One advantage of forbidding visitors to the Premier's Office is that the public will never know whether he is on the job or not. On the other hand some other member of the govern- ment, say the President of the Council, who is also legally Premier, may start opposi- tion ,and welcome all visitors——stcpping out to meet them.

Why? The answer is threefold. Canadian justice, in which politics reputedly play "little or no part. is 8 most. effective de- terrent. secondly. banks themselves push prosecutions against captured offenders to the last. ditch. And bunks now carry considerably small- er amounts of cash than formerly: larger bills are almost. lllvarlably recorded by serial numbers: and tnnny other protective features have been devised to make the life of I "big time" robber miserable.

A BEADED’! OOMIEVTB

8ir.~Pe1-hops the following brief comments from In onlooker who sees some of the political game at I distance may interest your ma. erst-

Will the electors of the First, Third, Fourth and Fifth districts of Prince now join with the Min- ister of Aariculture in expresaimm 0! Ilpnmcintlon to the National Breweries Limited, Montreal, for their generosity to tho former; of the second District. Prince county?

,M1’- George Barbour. M.L.A.. for many years 9. very ardent prohibit- lonlst and chief prosecutor for the Province has evidently had a com- plete change of heart when he ac- quiesced with the Minister of Agri- culture in securing for his district the services of the Black Horse Breweries stallion.

Mr. E. P. Foley, M.L.A., Junior Member for Fifth Prince, created quite an impression in his district in his maiden speech by supporting the Minister of riculbure; Mr. Dennis, in securing e Black Horse stallion for the second District. Ac- cording to the press reports of Mr. Foley's speech he had no objection to the color of the horse ‘iblack or white" both are good.

It. is surprising to inote the changed attitude of some ,of the members of the legislature in the past. six months regarding the Temperimce question. All seem now agreed that "Black Horse" is best. Increased sales by Vendors is ex- plained by the arrival of “Starlight Inset."

The reason my mime

The sanltorium will be neatly assisted in solving its financial dif- ficulties by the “blood money" re- ceived by way of fees from the "Blind: Horse stallion”. Mr. Dennis with cautious candor has some doubt of his reception at the "Pearly Cynics" on account. of the introduction of the gift from the National Breweries and the possible contamination of the elec- tors 'of his District. However. he frankly "admits if at. Peter extends to him a. welwme he will ask no question. - I am. sir, etc, ONLOOKEE.

FOXES AND SWINE

sir,-—I-Iuvl.ng read the address de- livered by Mr. W.-Chester 8. Mc- Lure at, the Fox Club meeting some short time ago, one cannot but. ad- inll; that the address reads vet)’ nicely; but. I believe the Purpose 101‘ which Mr. McLure was invited to speak was not. that his audience might. listen to his silver-toned ora- tory, but rather that they mllht T9‘ celve‘ some valuable information to assist them in their hard-pressed struggle. Mr. Mcbure stated that. a total of some 800.000 SUV” pelts. more or less. were now marketed annually and an average price of $33.00 the pelt. A total of $20,000.- 000

Let us for sake of argument, say that about 8% of these pelts, around 50,000 pelts, bring $70 each, total $3,500,000, and that 50% or 300.000 pelts bring $40.00 each, total $12,- 000,000, or R total for those two grades of 815500.000, giving a bal- ance of $4,500,000 for the remaining 250.000 pelts ,or less than 815.00 PB? pelt.

Now, Sir, at present prices what rancher can raise pelts-for $16. $20. or even 825 and make a reasonable profit?

Years ago fox meat. could be bought for 2'.‘.- cents to 3 cents per lb., but. the fur buyers are also the controllers of the feed supply of the Island. and slowly ‘but with great success they are by their prlce-raI.s- lng ideas slowly thwnrtlxig t.l1ls'great‘ Island business. At; present prices horse meat. is 8% to 0 cents per 1b.. rind other feeds in proportion. No ordinary rancher can raise pelts for l: reasonable profit pi, even $25.00 the pelt.
