If Mayor Newton possessed any administrative ability or the virtue of honesty he would forfeit any claim it might give him to the franchises of the electors by his egotistical ac- tion in attempting to use the electors as a football, intimat- ing that he can pick and choose official positions as he desires. But lacking both ability and honesty, be can expect nothing but humiliating defeat. In- deed, any elector who would support a man who publicly declared himself incapable of handling the office does so with a sinister motive or from prejudice beyond redemption. Certainly no ratepayer with un- derstanding of plain statements and a loyaltwto his own honest interests could support such a double faced man for any of- fice. ——_Q—_—_____ SLOWING UP THEIR POWDER POLICY. According to Alderman Mait- land, one of the pillars of pro- gress of the 1912 Council, has been their powder policy and the saving it has meant to the city. This is how it is done: In 1941 the City Council paid local powder men from $10 to $10.50 per case for dynamite delivered in small quantities on the job. The 1912 Couneil bought a carload direct for $8 a case delivered at the powder house across the harbor. It costs 10 cents a case to de- liver it on the dock. It cost $133 to build a powder house in the city. further expense in delivery charges to the city powder house and then a man at $4 a day to deliver the powder to the various jobs where it is needed. Isn't that efficiency and economy to boast of! The city has a big sum of money tied up in powder and the local merchants lose what anyone will conceede is an _ honest profit. —$\—_o—————— CRUDE METHODS OF FAKING. Mayor Newton made a state- ment at a public meeting. His paper reported that Mr. Pat- tullo made the statement in- stead of Newton. The Mayor retaliates that newspaper re- ports are not to be relied upon. There you have a little illus- tration of how this political fakir carries on his campaign of misrepresentation. Either he or his paper will publish anything for effect and then avoid the issue if the truth of it is challenged. When Y Want a P PHONE 340 WESTERN PLUMBING & SUPPLY CO.

Miss Emma Webber, a young lady from North Dakota, who blushingly admitted to having two sets of divorce papers in her trunk as memoirs of former ma- trimonial ventures, was the de- fendant of a suit in the County Court on Friday for the retura of presents. Mr. J. M. Miller, a steward on the steamer Prince George, was the plaintiff, and he regaled Judge Grant with the story of how he had made pres- ents of costly diamond jewellery to the lady during his brief courtship last July and August. He asked for the return of $100 in cash which he alleged he had banked with the lady, also one diamond ring valued at 865 pair of diamond earrings valued at $90 and one gold necklace valued at $80. In the alternative he asked for $235 in cash. In his evidence Miller said that! he had given the presents on the} understanding that the lady was going to marry him, but that she afterward broke off the alleged one engagement, saying that he was too jealous of her when she talked with other fellows. A fellow steward named Ayres told of trying to effect a reconcilia- tion, al which the lady said she “liked Jack, but he was too jeal- ous” and she would have no more to do wi h him, Miss Webber, in her own de- fence, denied having received the money. The necklace and ear- rings, she said, she bought with her own money from Miller, and the ring he had given her as an absolute present, She denied that they had ever been engaged. After the quarrel she said took the ring off her finger and threw it on the floor, ordering Miller out of the room. “He picked it up and handed it back to me, and said anything he had given he would never take back. He said he would smash it in pieces with a hammer if I did not take it back, so I took it,” said Miss Webber. A younger sister of Miss Web- she ber amused the court with her testimony. “T mever seen such a couple,” she said. “They was always chewing the rag over something. Seems as if they did nothing but quarrel,” “But that’s the way with en- gaged couples, isn’t it?” asked Mr. H. B. Robinson, who ap- peared for the plaintiff. “I don't know. I have not had any experience,’ replied the young lady. “Well, I'm surprised at that,” said the lewyer gallantly. The witness corroborated her sister’s story as to how she came by the articles, and that there was no engagement existing tween the parties. At the close of the case, Judge Grant said simply: “Someone in this case is not telling the truth. That's evident. Who it is that is lying I can't say, so I'm not go- be- ing to give any decision. The action will be dismissed with {costs.”’ Mr. Cecil Killam appeared on behalf of the defendant in the case. Forty years in use, twenty years standard, prescribed and recommended by physicians.
