Possibly the Fascist! movement may have tccn needed In Italy. At any rate the country became more prosperous and the people happier after Mussolini took charge. Now it seems as if there might be an attempt to over-reach and'the result will eventually prove fatal to the country, iudirinel by the history of the past. It is a scientific fact that for every ac tion there is a reaction. If there is an attempt made to curtail theUnauid be brought before the commis-freedom of the people to any great extent, there will be a reaction sion. on the part of the people that will go further toward socialism than the country has ever gone. This follows just as the night follows day. RUSH OF SETTLERS EXPECTED -NEXT YEAR. According to the minister of agriculture, a rush of new settlers is expected uext year. And the country needs them. There is plenty of land and a good market for the grain. The intelligent farmer makes money on the prairies if he has a good farm. Thousands are doing it every year. There is no place in the world where the poor man with a little knowledge of farm life can make money as easily as on the Canadian prairies. All he needs to make a start, if he is single, is a team of horses and a plow and a season's food. Many start: with less than that. CANT QUITE UNDERSTAND PRINCE RUPERT MENTALITY. The mentality of the people of Prince Rupert Is not easy to understand. There are a lot ofyoting people tarewholwould like to improve themselves yet there is no night school. When night schools have been established the young people do not take advantage of it. There are a great many people here who do not speak or write or read English. Some there are who do these things very imperfectly, yet there seems to be little desire to improve. Night schools have little appeal to most of them. The result is that whiltf Ketchikan has a night school, and many other places much smaller j1 . il . - 1 ate. f a e J a. that are relevant to the Investigation.
