Labor plans on getting organized again for the forthcoming civfc election. The local Trades & Labor Council ha3 been about the only body active In municipal affairs during the past few years and the result of the council's efforts has been apparent each time. The council is to be congratulated on its energy in looking after its own interests. Other organization that might well interest themselves in city affairs have been idle during these past few years. In fact, therehas been an attitude of indifference throughout the community. Municipal government is equally important with federal and provincial government and if people took the same interest and used the same energies in connection with the municipal elections and if sulable men would get into the field, it would "undoubtedly tend to improve things. There seems no reason why such organizations i-.s the Ratepayers' Association and Retail Merchants' Association and others should not be just as active as the Trades & Labor Council and, if it deemed it advisable, take definite stands as the Labor council does. PRINCE RUPERT WOULD LIKE TO HEAR .EMMA GOLDMAN. If suitable arrangements can be made, Emma Goldman, famous Nihilist, will come to Prince Rupert to lecture on conditions in Russia as they impressed her on a recent visit to that country. Miss Goldman went to Russia with her prejudices Inclined to favor Bolshevism. She came out of that country with feeling moulded from i.etual experience much the reverse. The people of Prince Rupert would undoubtdly be keenly interested to hear such a world famous individual deliver a lecture and it is to be hoped that negotiations with that end In view may be successfully carried out BENEFIT OF WESTERN OUTLET.

Ascarcity of ships at the Pacific ports has this year deprived the farmers of Alberta of the opportunity to forward their grain westward as rapidly as they desired. It was even necessary at one time to put an embargo on westward shipment. Now the frost has put an embargo on eastward shipment. That will slacken the demand for grain carriers on the Atlantic. The end of the British coal strike will relieve vessels which have been employed carrying coal lo Britain. There should be more bottoms available for grain cargoes at the Pacific ports In future than there have been. While Manitoba and Saskatchewan wheat is blocked all the way from the farm to the Atlantic seaboard, Alberta wheat will be going forward via the Pacific all winter, and probably In increasipg volume.

The Alberta farmer has been selling, and will be able to keep on selling, at prices free of any discount on that score. Manitoba and Saskatchewan grain has been rushed to market in an attempt to beat the frost. Alberta grain does not have to be "lumped" on a glutted market in the fall months. The coming of winter is the event which brings borne to Alberta the advantages of a frost-free western outlet for Its grain. Edmonton Bulletin. HOW OLD IS Cher.
