Voters of the city are urged to turn out in force on Thursday next to express their opinions through the ballot on the police question. This is turning out to be, as was predicted in this column va couple of weeks ago, the only absorbing issue of the campaign if we may call it that. Supporters of both systems provincial police or city police have been doing some quiet campaigning during the past week or so and there is a certain amount of keenness. The provincial police have been here long enough now for the people to judge whether their system or the old system of city policing was the more effective. Without expressing its feeling one way or the other, this paper would urge the voters to consider the matter carefully and vote for the system which it deems best. It is to be hoped that no ulterior motives will be brought into play in settling one's own mind or in advising other people how to vote on the question. Some people think that the result of the referendum may be construed as the choice for an "open" or a "closed" town. For those who may not be familiar with municipal law, it might be stated that voters of all classifications are entitled to ballot On the police question, a majority vote deciding which system is favored. On the sewer bylaw as on all money bylaws, only property holders or taxpayers may vote and it will require a sixty per cent vote in favor to carry. NO TIME LOST BY CUSTOMS MINISTER. One of the recommendations made by the chief counsel to the customs inquiry has been acted upon promptly by the department says the Edmonton Journal. The minister of customs announces that a hard and fast ruling has been laid down that ships clearing from Canada with cargoes of liquor mwt "prove beyond doubt that these have been landed at the points for which clearance has been granted. Where evidence is available that papers are made out for fictitious trips, the cargoes will be seized. The'officials believe that by this arrangement they will put an end to the shipping of liquor to the United States. That they will succeed entirely is open to reasonable doubt, but nothing should be left undone to accomplish the result that they have In view. The treaty entered into with the American authorities demands this. Objection has been taken to these measures on the ground .that Canada has enough to do in enforcing its own laws without undertaking to help the adjoining 'country in making its lawg effeo tive. But the claims of good neighborliness cannot be overlooked and the situation that has arisen cannot but be in the interests of friendly relations between the Dominion and the Republic. "Besides, it has been shown that such steps are imperative for our own protection. : The evidence brought put at the inquiry has demonstrated that liquor' valued at j.million of dollars that was supposed to have been shipped out of Canada . never left qur borders, but was sold here. The government has been thus robbed of very la'rge revenus' and the problem of enforcement in the Canadian provinces has been made much more difficult. naker when the House of Commons has an all night sitting. On these oc-caslons says the parliamentary restaurant manager the members frequently consume about 1.500 pounds of salt meat and about 300 eggs.

'i I.MI'KOVKMKNTS .OTF.I IX AUH1- t t m ini. iiNK livinh ;os- MTIONS (iKKATl.V Al VANCEII REC1INA, Jan. 6. (By Canadian Press). "The year 1928 shows a marked Increase In all branches of' activity by the Indians of the west." according to W.- M.Graham, commissioner for Indian affalrsT " "Production of livestock and grains,: has shown a gradual Increase, but this year we have to report an untoward 1 condition In the northern sections! which reduced the yields to some extent. Even with this reduction, we are able to show almost as largt an output as last year. The production of more than one million bushels of grain (wheat, oats and barley) Is an Indication that the Indians are busying themselves and making a success ofj farming-, in Tact. I can trutniuny say. that you will find many Indians farming. Just as successfully as white settlers In Saskatchewan and Manitoba, and pro rata producing equally as fln crops. 'Their living conditions have been (meliorated to the degree that In many homes of Indians now, enjoy similar conditions to those In the homes of the better class of white people. Less than five per cert of the children of school age on all reserves, are not attending school and for this there are various causes." During 1826 the department exper ienced some difficulty in putting up the required quantity of hay. but with nat too severe a winter. It la expected that the supplies will hold out without having to provide extra fodder for the livestock, Mr. Oraham said. "Livestock has been the one point where most progress has been made Off one reserve, tlS.000 worth of cattle Were marketed. In 1925 carloads' of Indian raised cattle, took first and third prizes In open competition on the Winnipeg market. "We pride ourselves on having the finest range cattle In the West, and that Is not only our opinion, but that of men who buy on the markets of the world. "Every year we buy anywhere from 7(r to 100 registered bulls-, and the constant breeding for better stock, has resulted In making of our herds the best that are ranging In western Canada," Mr. Graham added. Indian farmers during 1928, he said had 6,000 acres of breaking on which some cropping was done. There were 27,000 acres of summer tallow, 600 acres of gardens and 800 acres of potatoes.' Approximately 70.000 tons of hay were put up' or winter feed. 'The old time log shacks. Mr. Oraham says, are disappearing and In their plsces are to be found modernly constructed houses. There are stUl some of the old Indians living In their beloved wigwams, but they also are go-Ing out of use. "The report of Inspector Christiansen, who ha Just returned from the Fisher River Indian reserve In Manitoba, la one of the best indications of progress that the department has received," the Commissioner, concluded. BRITISH STILL UNDER WAR ECONOMY RULES ' LONDON. Jan. 6.
