Bolshovicis t¥in Recent Elsctior. ; \cecrding to reports received ¢4he Bolsheyijsts have swept Russia in the recent elections. We do not know under what condition the elections are held, nor who is allowed to exercise the franchise, but judging from early reports it séems that any- one likely to vote against ine Lenine Government is disfranchised That is the same thing that the Union Government in this country was charged with doing, only in a much more drastic form. I will_be interesting to learn more details before accepting the face value of the vote. Farmers Propose Entering Politics. The farmers movement in Ontario proved popular and on the prairies it is likely to be acceptable to the majority of the voters. but in British Columbia things are different. In the first to the total Here, too, the Orienta many place there are fewer farmers here in comparison oopulation, than in the other provinces. question is one that is a vital on and the farmers have in districts come out strongly in favor of admitting Chinese laborers to work on the farms and he!p clear the land. gested that indentured labor be How would the labor unions look on such a proposal? Farmers in this province are usually protectionists. They want the product of their orchards protected against dumping from Washington. The labor interests are generally for free trade. or as free trade as it is possible to secure under present conditions. These two differences alone willbe stumbling blocks to the success of the farmers’ movement. Ireland Still in Parlous Condition. There seems to be fo such thing as reconciliation in Ireland. While part of the population is crying for the cutting away alio- gether from England and Scotland, the other section is holding on firmly for close union wiih Great Britain. No one seems to know what the outcome will be. There is a Home Rule bill in prospect which a few years ago would have been acceptable with alacrity but which today finds no favor in the Emerald Isle. It would be a wise prophet who could tell with any degree of certainty what the future holds. . Some have sug- introduced. Providing for Women Prisoners. The decision of the City Council to provide an addition as a lockup which can, when necessary, be used to house women prisoners, is one that must meet with approval. It had become a public scandal for women to be in the same prison with men. Recently an arrangement had been made with the Salvation Army to care for women prisoners, but it was not to be expected that this could continue. There had to be provision made sooner or later and the City Council has recognized this and done its diity in regard to the matter. TT IEE Ee.
