To ay the least of it, general opinion is miieh divided in the oily .-i lo the wisdom of the action taken at a public me3t-ing lat week when it wus decided to request the federal authorities to Mom; the port of Prince Ituperl to American halilmt filft-rmcu. There are undoubtedly influence in the city that are much opioed to such a course and they will probably be heard from; Whil? there were a larse number of fishermen in attendance at the meeliu? where the closing of the port was recHiiwiended, the representation of businessmen individually was small. Hy Moving the jxirt. everything may Ue gained or every-Ihiug may be lost. While it is much to be questioned that uch acltoii will result in the 2c tariff and other restrictions of the United Slates being dropped, it i quite conceivable that further reprial from that direction may follow. It is even questionable if Canadian fishermen would gain their1 point if -uch reprisals diil not follow. While crryone here would very much like to see the 2c tariff dropped, there i a very distinct opinion that the stnkj put up in closing Ihe port may not be worth the game. That is the problem thai vexes all. By letlin? thing take their natural course, Ihe view i held by many that influences now working in the Pnited Stales and (Canada might bring about their own redress. II would be a pity to upset that course of events by any iiiiloward action that might b? taken here. There may be much lo gain through closing the jorL On the other hand, it i- not hard to conceive that there may be much to Ioe. Ottawa's Stand On The Question. Thai any request from Canadian fishermen of the Pacific roasl asking for closing of port to American vesels will le given the consideration of Ihe authorities was the advice brought in despatches from Ottawa this week. When Ihe department commented un the situation as it did prior to receiving any request there is reason to asume that it may be favorably dipos?d lo such a move. The same despaleh, however, indicates that Ihe department is alive to the situation and is not to be led into nnv action on nceoiint of what has b?eu done on the Atlaulb coast. It behoves lhoe interests who are not in favor of having the porl closed to get busy at o:ice and submit their represen tations so that no fnUe impression will be left at Ottawa as to Ihe concensus of opinion here. So far there has been only one resolution passed and that a'ks for the closing of Pacifie coast ports. "Faith Cures" And , , . Hypnotic Suggestion. ;V "1 told you so," or remarks, lo that effect have been very frequent since the announcement was made by a comniillee at Vancouver lasl week that Ir. Price's "faith cures" had been largely a matter of hypinltie suggestion. If such was really the case and the committee which passed that judgment was representative of Vancouver's best clerical, medical and legal talent it doe not necessarily mean thai Iir. Price is to condemned. If lie is an expert hypnotist be i only following a recognized practice that in many raes has heretofore proved successful, especially during the Oreat War and this in spile of the fart thai he made it to be understood at the time that his cure were not hypnotic but divine. Many of his patients, it was reported, died in the course of the past few Months following the treatment. Against this it is known that several ;tce now enjoying good health following cures. It is quite possible, that those who did die might have expired, anyway, in the natural course of events.
