Just now we suggest that the farmers of Alberta are taking themselves very seriously. After a lively debate they decided that Canada should not only reopen trade relation with Russia but should also make advances with a view to opening diplomatic relations, which means the full recognition of the country. So far neither Great Britain or the United States have granted that recognition. If Canada grants it she will have to do business through other channels than that of the Secretary of State for the Dominion, which would be the channel with any other country. An ambassador to Russia would bp the only alternative. The farmers also railed upon the Dominion to take over the encumberance. They also take exi t piinn to the immijfratinn policy of the government. I'nssilih i; is too British. It might be wise to siijfife-i to ihe farmers of Alberta that they are taking themselves more seriously than they urc regarded bv the rest of the country. POWERS OF lOUC E Granted that the pulin must be jriven some powers not enjoyed by other people, it did seem like iroinr ioo lar when a policeman sh a man because he put uis hnml in his po.ket instead of raising it at the imperious demand of the Miner, it is more than prooahle that th.e Montreal member of the ione" will lose his .job and per haps be punished for killing his man. particularly us it happened to be the wrong man. NOT MANY CARS YET The proportion of motor cars to the population in Prince Rupert is not yet very la nr.? but it is inr reusing. Just now it is slightly more than one for every twenty. l'o.-.sibl;. within u year or two it Will be One for every ten. The present demand ar cars is steadily increasing and with the extension ot the highway up the Skeena River the demand will increase. A POLITICAL THt'CE (Toronto Gloliei The Slontreal Star has risen lo jfi'eat heights of editorial eloquence in eallinK for a truce to party politic s. It devotes a column and a half to vijrorous indiinai ion oer the idea that the two great parties should spend their time fiddling while the country . No-and thf is what lends distinction to The Star's utterance it does not say the country is liurniiiir: there is little stiixjfestion of "l,e whUper of death" of two years airo. There is a call for united effort in constructive work.

The runnip. of the affairs of th eountny is a businesi. carrying Willi It grave responsibility. The party entrusted with the task has been granted it or should be because of the appealing character of the program presented to the electors, and not becauoe of bribes through promises of public expenditures and office appointments. Voters as well as newspapers are learning more and more to take this view of public service. Mr. Bennett, the new Conservative leader, is asked to give heed. "Under the new leadership of the Conservative party," says The Star, "one more chance for co-operative effort has come which mn oe mouiaeci inio actuality by the calling of a party truce." It is not probable that Mr. Bennett is prepared to endorse everything the government promotes, and it would be unwise to carry the truce sati THE DAILY NEWS Monday, -1 - ii i n manrrra I ll l fTsMflnigMn nr nil if r jbu. v BAN PLACED ON WIEi.
