In other words, our brave soldiers bleed for their country, but the profiteers bleed it and then trust to the general excitement caused by the war to wash out the guilty stains. The concluding sessions of the Duff-Meredith Commission were as notable for the matters ruled out as for the evidence put in. Particularly was this the case with Mr. Carvell’s request to sub- mit evidence in regard to the completed shells, of which the fuses, made by Allison's pet com- panies in the United States, were only a part. This evidence was not allowed to go in because it was outside the limits of the en- quiry, said limits having been carefully ordained by the govern- ment with a view to isolating the danger zone opened up by the Kyte charges. However, Mr. Car- vell has this information under his hand and will probably spring it at the next session of Parlia- ment or some ripe occasion.

Carnegie on the ground that he couldn't make them quick enough. ‘Urgency of delivery” was the way the Colonel put it in his precise English. As Mr. Ohmer's company has already delivered over a million of these fuses to the Canada Car Company, and Colonel John Wesley Allison's pet fuse companies only started to deliver some two months ago, it Carnegie looks as if Colonel guessed wrong when he picked the International Arms and Fuse Company and the American Am- munition Company as urgent de- Far from crowding the the Shell Committee, companies were five liverers, fuses on these two months behind in deliveries.

GEORGE TORIES (Special to The Dally News) Prince George, June 26.—-The Bowser meeting here on Saturday anything but a Bowser triumph, The premier, Hon. Wm. Manson, Hon. W. R. Ross and H, B. Thomson spoke, but three Op- position speakers who were al- lowed to make short speeches, evoked far more enthusiasm than the ministers. Bowser admitted that the prov- ince had paid the Pacific Great Eastern bond interest and had to come through with more help to the contractors. Bowser held out the hope that, by giving still more aid to the railroad next session, the road into the Peace River country would be built, The premier was asked why, as attorney-general, he did not have M. A. Macdonald arrested in cen- nection with the alleged ‘‘plug- ging” in Yancouver. Bowser re.- mained silent. , Challenged regarding the deal in cows by the Hon. Price Ellison, the premier claimed that the province did nof lose anything by the transaction, but the minutes afterward jie stated that Price Ellison had to leave the cabinet because of the deal. Pre-emptors who had always yoted Tory in the past and who had waiked twenty-four miles’ to attend the meeting, asked what Prince George had done to Fernie that Fernie “should hand us a lemon like this.’ ‘He is a self- confessed failure,’ they shouted, pointing to Ross, got the Tory nomination this afternoon, nobody else wanting it, Hon.
