Despite the claims made by a London "telepathist" that he has been receiving messages from Mars there is "no indisputable evidence, in fact no evidence bt any kind that life , exists on that planet. Imagination may spur supporters of telepathy to be dog matic in their belief of inhabitants in Mars, but it will be time enough to credit their as;ervations when telepathy hs been sufficiently demonstrated on earth to justify its applance to the realms of ether or space outside the earth's atmosphere, says the Victoria Colonist The London telepathist has destroyed whatever credulity might be attached to his argument by attempting to describe the physical characteristics of the "Martians," their personal habits and their scientific achievements. Telescopes indicate that there are lines which resemble canals on Mars, but the supposition is that they are of natural and ndt artificial origin. There is no parallel in earth's geology to the network of straight lines which are ramified all over the planet. Scientists claim to have discovered that the mean temperature of Mars, is about 47 deg. Fahrenheit, and such a temperature is not inconsistent with the existence of sentient "beings, although on the basis of life on earth no high degree of civilization could be developed there. Then, again, it is claimed that the Martian atmosDhere is as rare as that to be found on the top of earth's highest mountains, or, In other words, the relative density of the air on Mars is only about one-twelfth of that at the surface of the earth. If the "inhabitants" live by breathing air their lungs must be differently constructed to those of men. In .other words, a, man could not live on Mars and & Martin could not live on earth. The question in these days of radio is not so much as to whether radiant energy may be capable of crossing the void of space i but that if it once crossed is there any receptive faculty where it, reaches? There is no proof that the "Martians" have ever attempt-" ed to send messages by Hertzian rays, or any other rays, nor is there anything to suggest that If sent they would be understood or their presence even known. It is quite true that we are only on the threshold of the wonder of radio-telegraphy, but even that science - may never be able to add anything to knowledge as to whether there is life or not in Mars. All we know now is that It would be a life fir different from life on earth, and for that reason any suggestion that there could be telepathic communication, which in Itself belong to the realms of speculative philosophy, must be imbibed with a-great : deal of reserve. LIFE ELSEWHERE MAY BE QUITE DIFFERENT. , ' . While it is true possibly that. a person from the Earth could not live at Mars, as the' Colonist state, thererhay -be bcingsoji; that planet differently constituted from ourselves and living their life in adaptation to the conditions obtaining there. Because the air we breathe is dense does not mean that some other people, dif ferently constituted might not live and thrive in a rarer atmosphere. It Is even thinkable that they might jive without any atmosphere. AH our Teasoning is relative but there may be life which Is so different from life here that we should not know it or understand it. Men in Mars may not use lungs and may not have a heart to pump the blood through their bodies. How do we know what . they may be like? They may be big as mountains or tiny as Lilipu- tiana. u is interesting 10 -speculate aDQUt tnese things but our knowledge is very limited and the scrape of our understanding Is lieagea about by the knowledge obtained through our very limited senses.

It is good news that, as the result ct interviews and negotiation, the feud between the Canadian, government and the Pacific Cable Board hu been settled. Canadians never took seriously the threats made at Ottawa that Can ada would pull out of this co-operative ; enterprise, claim her share of the accu-mulstcd reserve and refuse a landing place at Baatletd for the new caol now Wider construction front FIJI. Tbe were the methyls resorted to by Charles Murphy, late Postmaster-Oenrral. to force respect for Canada's rights as a partner In the enterprise' and they hare been successful. The terms of the agreement, as cabled, appear to meet. In a reasonable manner, the contentions of Canada. This controversy, which at tunes reached the boiling point, shews how easily In these joint enterprises friction may arise. The trouble arose from a refusal of .the majority of the Board to pay any attention to Canadian views with respect to the bunding of the second Pacific cable: they didn't think they had to and proceeded on that assumption until they were brought up with a round turn. JOINT OWNERSHIP The Piclfic cable Is owned by Oreat Britain, Canada, Australia and New Zealand. Australia has the largest Interest, one third: New Zealand, one ninth; and the remaining interest Is held In equal shares each live-eighteenths by Oreat Britain and Canada. None of the partners put any capital Into the enterprise. The cable, which cost ten million dollars, was built from the proceeds of securities Issued by the British government, each partner assuming Its share of any losses which might be Incurred. The Board has exercised Its powers under' legislation passed only by the British Parliament, the governments of the Dominions simply securing from their Parliaments authority for their special commitments. No doubt this seemed the prop:r thing to do in 1901 when the cable wasjUn-ned; but it is now evident that if there had been concurrent legislation Use late disagreement could not have arisen, j CANADA P.UI . British legislation In 1901 provided that If there were losses they "would be borne proportionately by the partner natlonst equally "any profits arising from the cable shall be divided between His Majesty's government and the colonial governments in the aame proportion. For the first fourteen years the cable was operated at an approximate loss of S3.4MJIS.00. of which Canada's share was nearly one mUlton dollars. In ,1911 the Cable Board was empowered by British legislation to use Its surplus, above one hundred thous and pounds, for the construction of any wArk authorized by this act. The same amending act specified the works to which the reserve could be applied. These included "extensions, connections, or re-arrangements In or near the Pa-. cine ocean, which, in the opinion, of all the contributing governments, are necessary or expedient," Concurrent legislation confirming this extension of the powers of the Board wss not passed by any Dominion Parliament. ritoriT-4 HELP BACK In 1915 the cable began to make money: and In the ten Intervening years aa aggregate surplus of over eleven million dollsrs has been accumulated. There has, however, been no distribution of pro! Its; everything has gone Into the reserve. Last year the Board by a ma jority vote, decided to take this money and lay a second cable from FIJI to Canada. The formal consent of the various partner governments was sot sought, though this bad been the cus tcm with respect to previous extensions and Is Indeed provided for by the British legislation; and the adverse vote of the two Canadian representatives on the .Board was not regarded as an obsta cle to going on with the enterprise. The majority view was that the Board had been authorlted by the legislation of the British Psrliament to accuau&t this reserve and to spend it In extensions; and that this was all the authorization required. They, therefore, decided to go ahead with the enterprise despite .Canada's objections; and a contract lot the laying of the cable was entered Into against a formsl protest by the Canadian representatives. At this stage, Charles Murphy, PUUnaster-Oeneral of Canada, shied his castor Into the ring and armed with a stout shUlclsgh precipitated himself into tbe melee. Thereafter there vis trout! a-plenty. SETTLEMENT The settlement now reached In London provides that hereafter the Chairman is to be elected, In fact and" not simply nominally, by the Board Instead of being appointed by the British treasury: that the amount to be transferred hereafter to the reserve Is to be limited, with a division of excess sums among tbe vsrloui partner governments; and that the consent of all the partners will be necessary to the carrying out of new policies. This settlement Is, in fact, an acknowledgment that the Canadian position throughout the controversy has been eMcntlally sound; and It must, therefore, be regarded as satisfactory, HELLO IIKTTIEfl The girl up at Central Keep busy all dsy, Whenever I see them They're plugging away, I Boston Transcript THE MAN IN THE MOON nyi: Honestly t like an Indian summer about at well as any other kind.

Editor. Daily News: On reading your editorial article of November 3, I waa shocked at tbr statements therein: Wild and frenzied financing of cur city. No provision made fur redeeming our bonds, etc. Mere is the explanation: When bonds .are issued our laws compel the city to provide a fund 13 redeem these bonds at maturity. The city has faithfully carried this out to cording to our last financial report. The system adopted by our city was that of serial bonds, where a number are retired at given periods, thereby reducing the- amount of Interest on cspttal. Computations are made whereby annual payments are similar for the life of the bonds therefore not requiring a sinking fund, which would be drawing Interest about 3' whereas tbe original. Interest on bonds was about 8: The council of that period has saved tbe city thousands of dollar by ,that method of financing. Prices Rupert was the first clty,lnOKifda to adopt the serial bond system. Many other cities have followed them. I make this statement that all bond when due will be retired and that Indebtedness will be paid for aM time. The Daily News has never been a friend to tbe city's utilities, this latest attack 1 as unwarranted at INDIGESTION Gas on Stomach Caused Severe Pains Mr, t P. Wheeler, RE. No. t, Glen Rwph.
