P., another to have made since his arrival in the but in the view of the practices in vorue since the Conserva-| tives have been in power, it} does not seem to be out of the way. This time he has not been advocating the advantages) of -any one townsite as being desirable property, but has ap- parently assumed that the property of the Dominion gov- ernment and the people of Canada is for him and his sup- porters, and to that end has taken the Dominion government launch Evelyn to Queen Char- lotte Islands. He has been ab- sent for ten days, and the launch has been out of com- mission here for that length of time. Not only use the did he presume to government property for his trip, but he took along, at the expense of the benefi- cent Tory government, those stout supporters of the Borden administration, Judge Caress, J. G. Seott, G. D, Tite and M. M. Stephens, all (as the Masset Leader says in reporting on the party) “members of the Prince Rupert Conservative party.” If a Dominion constable was use of any portion of the goods under his charge for to make his personal use, he would be blackguarded and called a grafier; were an Indian agent detected in the act of making personal use of the property of his charges, he would be discharged in disgrace. Yet the member of this district boldly makes use of the prop- erty of the people of Canada, not only for himself, but for the “members of the Prince Rupert Conservative Associa- tion,” The of the reason for the presence “members of the Prince Rupert Conservative Associa- tion” on the trip which Cle- ments told the people of Mas- set was a visit lo get acquaint- ed is obvious in light of the well grounded rumor Judge Carss is the one selected to contest this portion of the riding in the Tory interests after redistribution.

Conservative newspapers are beginning to speculate on the number of years it will require to change the political com- plexion of the majority in the Dominion Senate, which proved such a stumbling block to several attempts at vicious legislation during the last ses- sion of Parliament. The en- quiry is not a cheering one to the supporters of the govern- ment. There is not the slight- hope of the majority be- coming Conservative before another general election oc- curs; and another general election is not unlikely to rele- est gate Mr. Borden and his fol- lowers to their old places on the opposition benches. But, even were the government re- turned, another five years might be required to alter the balance to the required de- gree.—-Vancouver Sun, of their infants so that as the | tour, i The witness was a young Ger- Forwarned Is Forearmed. man immigrant, whose evidence It was a hidden spot on the was required in an accident case.) seashore.
