It i often claimed that th press is controlled and that is true. The press is largely controlled by its readers, curious as tha may seem. All newspaper editors have their ears to the ground all the time in an effort to find out what their patrons want. They are not so much concerned with what a few scattered intellectuals want, what a few reformers want, what a few faddists want, as with what the great mass of the people want and are willing to pay for. Primarily the newspaper is a commercial undertaking, i It tries t print that which will sell. Circulation must be obtained as a first i t i uNite. If the paper is conducted in sueh a manner that the people do no like it they soon express themselves through the business office and the editor hears about it. Ideals are all right, but the pjlilic will l.ave what they want and they are the people who cnntn riuiijr in Mie Victoria Colonist on this subject a staff editor says : "The truth of the matter i-and child-like in its mental view supremely interested in polities o trays the history of the country that history.

The Olympic winter meet at St. Moritz ha been one of the most important but in Prince Rupert much intercut seem to have been taken in the English and Scottish cup tie. Then there are amateur hockey championships and events in other lines of sport that interest .people here. The Oxford and Cambridge boat races come along soon and the turf season in the Old Country commences with a big lis, of classic races. The coming offspring will bring back tennis in earnest. Last week a number of tennis enthusiasts were on the Prince Rupert courts almost every day and this had the affect of diminishing the interest in Uadminton, whk-h is essentially an indoor gam here. We make no apologies for devoting a considerable proportion of our telegraphic appropriation to sport subjects, for people like to read about these events. We have tried to keep in close touch with the big eastern hockey league during the winter and shall be doing the same for baseball this coming summer. While it has not been poMribi tq, always have a page of sport, the front page of thin paper alwayV Hfc reports of a number of sport events which keep local people up to data in regard to happenings of this kind.

Whereas trappers used tr make as much a from one to two thousand dollars In a winter a few years ago they now think one hundred dollars a pretty good catch. Pat Phillips says the animate Dave been cleaned out through over trapping and that the bustnaas In this ae-rUon of the country is ended, probably for ever. It may recover to some extent but nevec to Its former status. The owr will benefit from ths absence of wolves but deer hunting has been on the Increase and trs yetr there was a moUCeabie .scarcity or tnese animals. Only a few years ago many fishermen tpent at least part at the winter trapping among the lalande and on the mainland coast. Now scarcely any go and those who do. return w'tthout enough furs to pay the Tost of engine fuel. The decree has been gradual but It hi been sure Tbe country seems ti be trapped out. While fnr lamu have been established :n many parts of the country, the output la not yet enough to replace the diminished supply from the wUd trapping grounds and tbe price of fur la going up. The demand la greater than the supply. Man in the Moon CAHNIBAUau Is one pig eating the flesh of another. This is very common, even In so-called civilised countries.

NATURALDRAMA OFTHE WILDS Chang Said to be Master Picture and Will be Seen at Weekend Natural drama win be introduced to Princ Rupert in sn advanced state jat the week kd when "Chang" the tlsmsss Jungle picture is released Vocally. The chief (ear is that many will look upon thair production aa a travel picture They inatat that It la straight drama, with aulyinse. comedy, continuity and tanpo it has a story, too. Natural draaaa, it u explained, "is drama pradMsyd with natural actors in tbelr owd environment, living the story of their Uvea and their struggle for existence. This new Jungle picture la tbe story of a people surrounded by an abundance of food. There la so much food that a superabundance of creatures live on It and on each other. There la the constant menace that this teaming vegetable snd animal Ufa will overwhelm the humans struggling against it. On this the story Is built. "We chose an attractive family living In the edge of the Jungle for our central characters. Their staple food la rlee. they bo lid their bamboo houses on poles ta protect themselves from Jungle animals they keep domes-:c animals and chickens They . :. onstautly faced with the problem "t ;: otectlng themselves against the .:. isolations of beasts tigers, leopards, u i -. inakea. elephants The elephant' i t me their beat friends and sources wealth when trained, but In wild rds they are to be feared. "In photographing i the Jlvea of these people we eJwaya kept the dramatic values In mind. The story develops. shows the wavering between hope and (ear and the final triumph over a herd of more than four hundred wild elephants. "We wanted it to stand by ilseu as a piece of dramatic entertainment. Tbe fact that, in addition to this. It has scenes of great seatfe beauty, shows tbe 'people untouched by civilisation and that there are thrills ami laughs in It, leads me to hope that we have accompllahed something new in the (111 of picture production."
