In

there
will
be
a

staff
of
airmen

who
may
be

for

Canada

reorganize
her
air
services
and
it
is
to
be
hoped
that
the
air

will
be
agrt

the
development.
This
country
is
one
of
the
most
backward
in
this
movement,
yet
we
often
pride
ourselves
on
being
progressive.

ASSASSINATION
REGRETTABLE
The
assassination
of
Kevin
O'lliggin
in
Ireland
is
greatly
to
be
regretted.
It
was
hoped
that
Ireland
.had
now
settled

Then
comes
this
horrible
crime
perpetrated
on
a
member
of
the
government
that
has
just
been
returned
by
a
vote
of
a
majority
of
the
peonle.
The
first
thing
$e
people
of
Ireland
haveUo
learn
is
to
abide
'by
tne
decision
of
the
majority.
.Until
thfeynao

Just

other

HOPE
NO
ELECTION
YET
It
is
to
be
hdped
that
the
statement
of
Hon:
Dr.
Sutherland
is
correct
and
that
there
will
be
no
election
at
present.
The
people
of
the
province
do
not
want
to
be
upset
by
an
election
at
present
for
everything
is
going
well
and
there
is
no
need
for
a
contest.
There
is
no
important
matter
do
place
before
the
people.
It
would
seem
to
be
a
reasonable
thing
to
suggest
that
Premier
Oliver
could
drop
out
if
he
wishes
and
one
of
his
prominent
ministers
take
his
place
without
any
great
disorganization
of
public
business.
There
are
always
some
people
who
want
excitement
and
who
look
for
political
changes.
Just
now,
however,
there
is
nothing
to
indicate
that
if
an
appeal
were
made
to
the
country,
there
would
be
any
change,
so
far
as
the
government
is
concerned.
So
why
hold
an
eleciion?
What
we
need
now
is
a
quiet
time
for
work
and
development
and
then
when
the
end
of
the
present
government's
term
comes,
an
election
will
be
in
order.
It's
a
good
thing
to
have
a
keen
sense
of
duty
but
let
it
be
your
own
duty
and
not
the
duty
of
your
neighbors.
A
GOOD
INVESTMENT
Whcjwin
the
city
yesterday
Hon.
W.
II.
Sutherland,
minister
of
public
works,
mentioned
the
eriticrsm
that
had
been
launched
against
the
Sumas
dyking
scheme
whfch
had
cost
the"
province
a
good
deal.
Jn
fact
he
said
that
it
had
ben
an
excellent
investment.
It
gave
the
province
a
large
area
of
excellent
land
cleared
at
about
$150
an
acre
which
is
much
cheaper
than
anv
timbered
land
could
be
cleared
and
the
land
was
much
richer
than
the
ordinary
timber
land."
Just
now
a
firm
of
hop
growers
was
asking
for
five
thousand
people
to
pick
hoi
there
and
it
was
difficult
to
get
that
many.
This
in
dustry
alone
was
worth
a
great
deal.
The
hop
growers
had
looked
over
land
in
many
places
but
found
none
so
suitable
as
this
lake-bed
which
had
been
drained.
They
paid
a
good
price
for
the
land
and
were
getting
good
results.
Terhaps
the
community
is
not
really
narrow.
Possibly
you
are
unable
to
see
wide
enough
to
note
its
breadth.
