Swimming
Club
Needed
Badly.
The
Swimming
Club
has
in
Jhe
past
been
one.
of
the
most
useful
organizations
in
the
city.
Last
year
it
did
some
splendid
v
work
at
the
Sail
Lakes
in
putting
lip
new1
floats
and
diving
apparatus
.
The
organization
is
slill
needed
badly.
Some,
of
I
lie
floats
need
nverhaiiP
and
there
is
the
question
of
dockage
to
be
decided
upon
for
Salt
Lake
Park.
Because
of
the
'need,
il
is
to
be
hoped
that
tonight
there
will
be
a
rood
turnout
at
the
meet
ing
in,
the
city
hall.

All

draining
from
the
soil
in
this
part
of
the
country
is

It
is
simply
a
muskeg
slain
but
is
perfectly
heallhv.
All
who
are
interested
in
swimming
should
attend
the
meeting
tonight
and
see
that
proper
stejts
are
taken
to
keep

'Progressives
Are
Having
Difficult
Time.
The
Progressive
Party
aLOIlawa
is
having
a
difficult
time.
II
is
trying
to
make
itself
a
party
in
the
same
sense
that
the
Liberals
and
Conservatives
nre
a
parly.
11
has
its
own
party
whips
who
see
that
ils
members
are
there
to
vote
unless
they
have
paired
with
some
person
on
the
opposite
side.
The
difficulty
is
that
the
members
are
men
who
broke
away
from
the
old
parties
because
they
did
not
like
being
lined
up
by
a
whip
and
voting
for
parly
instead
Of
principle.
Some
broke
away
because
they
did
not
haw
-enough
independence
and
they
were
named
the.
"ginger
group."
Now
another
group
has
persistently
supported
the
Liberal
party
in
order
to
prevent
the
government
being
bealen
and
forced
to
go
to
Ihe
-country
for
nn
election.
Caucuses
are
held
bul
they
donnl
improve
mailers.
The
next
step
,is
an
appeal
to
the
people
lo
decide
whether
the
('lingers
ami
the.
Pro-Liberals
nre
worthy
of
support
or
not.
There
should
be
an
opportunity
lo
decide
next
yenr
if
not
this.
V
Wlre'ess
Not
Yet
Success
In
North.
Judging
by'
results
the
wireless
communication
with
rnor-
Ihern
points
docs
tiol
seem
to
have
been
a
great
success.
A
despatch
from
Dawson
in
regard
b
(he
'floods
was
delayed
almost
a
week,
though
Ihe
station
Ihere
was
out
of
business
only
a
few
hours.
Other
messages
are
reported
to
have
been

If.
Hie
system
is
lu
succeed

IMtiUo

mucn
iK'iier
man
it
is
doing
now.
The
difficulty
about
wireless
telegraphy
in
the
far
north
seems
lo
be
Ihe
large
amount
of
static
when
it
is
almost
impossible
for
any
system
yet
discovered
to
operate.
The
.McMillan
expedition
-on
the
coast
of
Jlreenland
was
cut
off
from
the
rest
of
the
world
for
many
monlhs
and
it
vn
only
through
a
Prince
Rupert
station
that
communication
cou'd
be
obtained
during
other
mouths.
Wireless
has
its
limitations.
A
thorough
fesl
should
be
made
before
Ihe
land
lines
are
abandoned
and
the
people
of
Ihe
Tar
north
left
to
Ihe
lender
mercies
of
the
radio
system.
Wong
Will

To
Go
Up
For

Wong
Koon

Ls
''
charged
with
Ihe
murder
of
Janet
Smith,
will
have
io
stand
trial
al
the
fall
assizes.
That
is
a
very
satisfactory
outcome
of
the
trial
because
it
gives
Ihe
police
plenty
of
lime
to
follow
'up
a'l
the
trails
and
in
the
meantime
prevent
the
Chinese
boy
from
being
again
spirited
away.
He
should
be
safe
at
Oknlla
and
if
he
should
be
needed

he
will
