CONVENTION
AT
SMITHERS
The
convention
of
the
Associated
Boards
of
Trade
at
Smithers
last
week
brought
to
light
how
immenne
are
the
demands
of
the
whole
country
from
their
governments
and
how
impossible
it
ia
to
supply
to
carry
on
through
another
session
or

of
the
Legislature.
There
I
are
plenty
of
good
men
who
are
capable
of
carrying"
on
the
affairs
i
of
the
province.
The
difficulty,
if
any,
is
that
the
present
cabinet
is
an
all-star
aggregation
and
there
is
no
one
man
outstanding
as
to
be
the
general
choice
of
tjie
Legislature.
However,
when
a
choice
is
made,
the
new
Premier
will
be
accepted
and
followed
loyally.
In
the
meantime
the
Premier
is
reported
to
be
regaining
his
strength
and

the

Prof.
D.
C.
Harvey,
Unlver
slty
of
British
Columbia,
outlined
the
part
which
arly
efforts
for
union
among
the'Marltlme
provinces
played
In
helping
to
bring
about
Confederation.
"The
Marltlmes,
honest
dupes
of
their
own
enthuilasm
as
much
as
misled
by
promises
from
Canadian
statesmen,
and
disappointed
with
the
realities
of
Confederation,
put
their
faith
In
England
as
sure
to
enforce
'fair

like
other
minorities
before
them,
they
found
that
Imperial
governments,
like
God,
are
on
the
side
of

battalions,"
he
said.
He
concluded
with
a
plea
that
the
promises
of
the
time
should
be
In
part
kt

redeemed,
as
a
means
of
correcting
the
depression

who
took
as

"Some

devoted
himself
to
analysis
of
George

His

was
that
the

an
unconscious

Henri
was

he
had

hands.
Now,
though
he
had
never

It.
Blanche
really
loved
Henri
and
his

had
made
her
sad.
So,
when
he
placed
old

Fanny
In
Blanche's

he
started
something
because,
by
the
time
he'd
come
back,
Fanny
was
no
longer
the
girl
he'd
left
behind
him.
No

she
was
radically

was
