Probably there is only one man in the provinee (at least we hope so) who will defend McBride's action in regard to the striking miners of Extension and Cumber- land, and that man is Sir Richard McBride, Premier of the Province of British Columbia and minister of mines, on whose breast was recently pinned the insignia of the Order of St. Michael and St. George. As he admires the great jewels of the order in the mirror and whispers to himself, “Sir Rich- ard,” we wonder if the vision of those seven dead miners in the slopes of the Diamond Vale Col- liery appear in the glass. Does he see them groping help- lessly in the dark drifts of the colliery, stumbling on to. their knees and with the sacred name of mother or wife on their lips, pitch forward as the great black ever wall of after damp advances? Three breaths and the miner is dead. Or does he see in the mirror the seared faces of those widows whose all went into the darkness never to return, or the little who cling to the mothers’ skirts erying for the father who shall never return? Does he recollect, as he looks down at the King’s fayor, the promise he made to those widows and orphans, and how, instead of staying here and carrying out those promises, he lied to them, to the people of Vancouver and to himself, and slunk away to the old land to dine and wine with the lords and gentry there while the fatherless and widows of that disaster, and also of the Exten- sion disaster, feasted on crusts and huddled together around a cold stove? The same issue of the govern- ment paper, the Colonist, that published Sir Richard's intention of sailing for England carried the following item: “Mr. Thomas Graham, chief inspector of mines, and Mr. Fleet Robertson, provincial minerolo- gist, have just returned to the city from Nicola, where, under instructions of the minister, they have been specially investigating all the circumstances incidental to and indicative of the eause of the recent disastrous explosion in the mines of the Diamond Vale Coal Company, through which seven of the miners in the employ of that company lost their lives. As soon as the reports of the two officials can be prepared they will be presented to Hon. Mr. MeBride as minister and it will be for him to determine whether the cir- cumstances are such as to indi- cate criminal responsibility or to justify proceedings under tite Coal Mines Regulation Act.” ones What has matter of the been done in the “eriminal responsi.

What effort has been made to carry out the promise of pro-| ceedings? : In the event of such proceed-| ings, it is Richard MeBride himself, as minister of mines, who would have to face the indict-| ment, for the coroner's placed the responsibility of that explosion on the inspectors, and Sir Richard, as head of that de- partment, Sir Jury is responsible. Now do you understand why the miners at Extension and Cumberland did not receive the inquiry they asked for? The strike itself is a protest against the Department of Mines, for the men say that they have no pro- tection against discrimination in the event of their doing their duty! in an effort to save and protect life.

London, Oct. 12—Speaking at Edinburgh, Sir John Simon( licitor general, said that the gov- ernment will be ready to treat) the minority in Ireland very gen-| erously. With regard to the home rule} bill the people could depepd upon the government to seek a solu-| tion to the Ulster situation, and) in facet that solution had already been found, declared Sir John. Concluding, the solicitor gen- eral said that he was convinced that it would not be Ulster that! would be coerced as far as home| jrule was concerned. ; s0- = TIM GONG Yo RAISE THE PRICE OF A TICKET TO THE WORLD SERIES © I HAVE TO STICK SOMEBODY — i UI 7} | iS a Wi) i H / | { useless} fj t of employment} [ } ol, y (ey) (2) fe) | (rel (2 (ey) 2 fe (2 (2 ce f2) fe fe) Pe) fe 2) a) (C 2) fc) (2 (2 (e ie e} 2 (2 (2 ral 2) fe (2) You Can Thank Advertising N&r time you step into the corner store, take a look around. Of all the articles on the shelves, how many were on your shopping list five years agoP Make it ten years, and you will find that most of the things you buy to-day—and could not do without—were not even made then. You men and women who buy things, let this sink in. You are better men and women because of advertising. You eat more whole- some food. You wear better clothes. Your home is better furnished. You have cleaner and more sanitary houses. You read better books and magazines. You seek more health- fuamusements. Your whole standard of living has been raised—and why? Because the men who make these better things are telling you that you will be more comfortable, happier and healthier if you use these higher grade goods. It is advertising that makes it possible for you to buy “the best” right at your corner store. It is advertising that encourages the inventor to make new comforts and new utilities and enables you to buy them almost immediately after they are perfected. J. J. Hill says this “high living” costs more. True for J. J.—but it is worth more. And leaving the cost aside, do you want to go back to buying jam out of a pail, oatmeal out of a barrel, raisins out of sticky boxes, or tea exposed in an open chest? Do you regret the money you paid for a Player Piano? Would you forego the new style razor? Isn’t a Tungsten worth a thousand candles? Would you now be enjoying these if enterprising manufacturers had not told you about them in their advertisements? Isn’t life brighter because we have new and higher standards of living? Let us thank advertising for it. Advice regarding your advertisin, lems is available through any — tising agency or the Secretary o iret Canadian Press aoa, a .
