City Liberal Candidates - After a great deal of manoeuv- ering and hesitancy, the Lea Gov- crnment at last succeeded in call- ing a convention and nominating candidates to represent the party for Charlottetown and Royalty in the forthcoming (undated) general election. There has been a vacancy in the city since the resignation of Mr. W. Chester S. McLure, M. P., yet no attempt was made to call a by-electlon to return n, successor, due to the fact that the Govern- ment got a severe setback in the by-election in the second District of Prince when its Attorney Gen- eral met his Trafalgar. It is no secret that the party was at a loss ‘to get suitable men to become sacrificial victims in the coming election. Attempts have been made to get well known gentlemen to enter the fray, but without suc- cess. The nomination meeting last night decided upon Mr. E. T. Higgs and Mr. C. St. Clair Trainer, one an old veteran in politics, the other an apprentice hand. Both gentlemen en- joy excellent reputations in busin- ess and professional life, and no doubt will do their very best in the mlnion Highways grant in i910 was denounced by the Liberal N655 and politicians as “an infernal scheme." The Bell Government was elected on that campaign of abuse and misrepresentation. Pre- mier Lea was first lieutenant, Pro- vincial Secretary-Treasurer and Minister of Agriculture in the Bell Government. Hon. J. P. Mclntyle was a supporter of the same admin- istration, and won his election in 1919 on the same unscrupulous campaign. What do our farmers and motorists, who have had their gasoline taxes boosted 100 per cent by the Lea Government in order to build McIntyre election highways. think of the slogan that was adopt- cd by the Patriot to defeat the Ar- senault Government for the benefit of the gentlemen now in powr: “Vote out a Government that is at- tempting to bribe the people with their own money by spending thou- sends on the roads just before an election!“ The electors will shortly have the opportunity of seeing the Lea-Mo- Intyre aggregation hoisted. with their own petard.

But when the British manufacturer is seemingly careless as how or when he is going t9 fill the order, and is apparently too complacent and too sure oi the quality or character of his goods to make the slightest change in them to meet Canadian require- ments, then no one can blame a Canadian for placing his order else- where. This is just what the Prince of Wales has been saying: it is what the London Times, says and it is the reality. ' Cynics notwithstanding, there are many men in public life who are there for reasons other than their own ends and ambitions, human and fallible though they may be. politicians are not the scheming careerlsts many believe them to be. and a lot of them do care a little for the common good.

On the contrary, they pointed out that a Government's first duty was to its own citizens, and that if Washington wanted to increase duties, that was Washlnii- ton’s business. And right.

It is proposed to arrive at Van- couver on the date ct the formal °pelllllll 0f the great Municipal Airport there, which has been con- structed at a cost of $400,000. In that city a special display will bc given in honor of the occasion. On the way back from the flaciflc Coast a side trip will be made to Fort William and Port Arthur, where are located important flying club centres. The new Municipal Airport at Halifax is also to be the scene of a special demonstration. The planes will visit Charlottetown, August 23 and 2i. The avowed purpose of the ‘Irons-Canada Air Pageant is to of- fer an aerial display that will help to boost aviation in the Dominion. An outstanding feature will be the performance of skilled pilots of the Under the Dunning Budget a corporation with an income of $1,- 0001000 would pay a tax oi sis-ale.

McIntyre informed the Liberal convention at Georgetown that in his department since 1027 and far better work had been done at a far less cost than had been done under the previous government." This does not. explain how Mr. McIntyre comes to be spending $700,000 a year-practically as much as the total revenue enjoyed by the Stewart Government-dai- why he borrowed an additional half mil- lion dollars and then boosted the gasoline tax 100 per cent.

Why, in the circumstances, anybody should talk of “retaliatlonfl or of "tariff wars,” passes understandingsurely a country ought to be able to look out for its own interests without being charged with spiteful ag- gression. Americans who ordinarily tour Europe, are abandinz a. trip abroad this season. They are turning to Canada. Highway traffic so far this year would indicate that the tourist business will be ahead of i930. . Europe's loss will be Canada's gain. Once turned northward, this traffic should remain permanently, when the Americans discover what a glorious Summer outing country Canada is. Experience says the London Free Press has shown in both provincial and federal elections in Canada that the voters are not as a rule fickle. Most Governments defeat themselves. They break down as the result of the growth of bernac- les. The Manitoba School Act has- tened the defeat of the Conserva- tives in 1896. but the chances are that the Ministry would have been overwhelmed in any case as a, result of gradual party decay. The same was true of the Liberals in 1911 Reciprocity had its influence, but even John Doioe, editor of the Manitoba Free Press, is authority for the statement, in his "Life of Laurler,” that the party was break- ing up alter many years of power. The toll of death and disable- ment through traffic accidents in Britain is a very heavy one, fifty people being killed and one thous- and injured. on the average, every day through accidents, the bulk of which are held to be advoidable.

Whether the domination of the working-class willbe better or worse than the long domination of the landed class who can say? says the London Truth. It will probably be as bod, in a different way.

The X ray shows the ulcer. What about the treatment? ‘There is no question but that in a number of cases, partlcularilyl those of long standing and where there is scar tissue interfering with the flow of food from the stomach to intestine, that surgery, immedi- ate surgery, is the best treatment. This usually means that with ordinary care there is not likely to be rnuch further trouble. However 1t is generally admitted now that medical treatment oi this ulcer, offers great hopes of e. com- plete cure. Dr. R, c. Brown, reports 1244 cases of ulcer of the stomach and first part of small intestine, ad- mitted to the Presbyterian Hospi- tal of Chicago, between i912 and i927. 0i the 1130 patients treated medically 49.5 per cent are report- ed cured, and 16.7 per cent satisfactorily lmproved-a total of 66 percent in which a. good medical result was obtained. An additional 10 percent report mode- rate improvement, and in 20 per- cent medical hentment failed. About 20 percent, one in every five, patients admitted to hospital, with theseulcers, require an oper- atlon; the other 80 percent, that is 4 out of 5, can be helped by medical treatment. All the patients reported cured or improved have been under observation since their discharge from the hospital, for two and a half years or much longer. The medical treatment spoken of above, is known as the SlPllY treat- ment which consists of a meal of soft foods-milk, soft eggs, cream, and cream soups, jellies, custards and so forth, given every hour from ‘i o‘clock in the morning until 7 o'clock at night, and half way between each meal an alkaline powder is given. This powder is continued every half hour after the last feeding at 7 o'clock, until 10 o'clock at night. The whole idea is to keep the acid gastric Juice from irritating the ulcer, and so the ulcer gets a chance to heal. You can sec that these cases require a lot of attent- ion, and the hospital is the most convenient place to receive it. However a trained nurse could do this where it ‘is wise to have the patient at home. TO A BLACBXRD O Pagan poet, you And l are one In this-we lose our god At set of sun.

Moore was tlventy-seven years working on these melodies (doing other literary work besides) and he received $500 for each one. He tells us himself that it was not an easy task to express in words the emo- tion demand by each particular melody, and judging by the Bentl- ment expressed in "Dear Harp of my country," he was not too satis- fled in his accomplishment. "If the pulse of the patriot, sol- dier or lover, - Have throbbed at our lay, ‘tis thy glory alone; 1 was but a wind over, And all the wild sweetness I waked was thine own." l Though Thomas Moore was a friend of Robert Elnmct, and this patriots death saddened/years of his life. he picked his own way carefully amid intrigue and rebel- lion being always more poet than patriot.

United States anthracite often carries a ms l siderable proportion of slate, and the amount of an}; and refuse is large. The Welsh product has no 510s material, and-after combustion leaves only a slight sky- ment of ash compared with the United States fuel Th“ man who uses it rids himself entirely of the nuisaflce o? coal sifting. The Welsh coal makes a quicker. hotter and more lasting fire. Used in its finer screen form with a blower attachment, it costs only about $10 a ton in Toronto and dlles the work of $17 Pennsylvania anihra cite. The growing popularity of the British anthracite this country is deducible from the fact that, whereas i; was practically unknown prior to 1922, over 700,000 tons were burned in Ontario, Quebec and the lllal-iiimu during 1930. An official statement from the Dominion Fuel Bum at Ottawa says: “The anthracite fields of Great Britain are proving an important factor in the solution of out" domestic fuel problem. The coal is of a quality Supgfim- to Pennsylvania anthracite." The board estimates that 8.39 tons of, the Welsh coal equal ten tons of United: States anthracite; so that there is no question about it; economic utility for home heating purposes. The late Lord Melchett was one of those interested in the develop- ment of the Canadian market, and if he had lived he would have bept delighted with the preference just given British coal by the Canadian Government. One of u“; advantages of encouraging the use of Welsh coal in Can- ada lles in the fact that it assists materially in develop- ing exports of grain from Montreal. The many steamers arriving in the St. Lawrence with Welsh coal invariably take away grain as return cargoes. The interiesis of the " port and country are well served by the development 01;. this trade. We buy British coal; British ships bring in this 0031;‘ they load with Canadian grain for the British and other European markets; having the advantage of return cargoes they can cut their rates, whiclrenures to the: advantage of the Canadian grain trade and the farming communities on the prairies. The whole business is in accord with sound British-Canadian common sense, and; we believe it is only the beginning of an ever-increasing?» trade between Canada and the rest of the Empire. ~ -- -=-_——~-~~ ------\-____i___-___- i~l.\v,>.r\.\ Liv-Ail!‘ ml Hr. l Lilli -i w...» >l wllluNltD Vlcroalll collie: ‘ Montreal (Founded and endowed h! ll" lute Rt.
