Stalin, head of the Russian Soviet Government, rules Russia with a rod of iron and woe to the man who crosses his path. Only last week, Leon Trotsky, former minister of war, was banished from the eoilritry along with several other extremists. Stalin is a stern ruler but not an extreme communist. He believes that under present conditions the country can go so far and no farther. He admits the failure of military ommuni-m and is de veloping at) economic policy that allows in-. dom for commerce, the right of inheritance, and a partial resival of capitalism To this Trotsky and his group were opposed and were downed by Stalin ho J-rode roughshod over all their objections. Gradually the opposition 't leader wereremoved from positions of authority, the climax coming witn their expulsion from the country. The fate of Trotsky emphasizes the fact that there is no gratis tude in politics and that a democracy always eventually tramples on its idols and crucifies its saviors. One of the secrets of Stalin's power is that he is of a retiring disposition. He does not push himself to the front and evades any suspicion of hero worship. He is not overmuch given to speech- making so has nothing to retract and does not have to explain. While admitting that his methods are rough he says that he is rough only to those who try to destroy the party as he has moulded it. The man's real name is not Stalin. It is simply one of the many aliases under which he went when a fugitive from justice before the revolution. His real name Is Joseph Vissarionavich Drug-athtlli. Newspapermen and readers of newspapers are glad he changed his name. It would have been difficult to have made a hero of a man with such a name as that with which he was born. PUNCTUATION IS DIFFICULT Punctuation Is difficult, just as difficult as capitalization. Hardly any two people punctuate alike. The modern rule with capitalisation and punctuation is to evade it as much as possible. Just enough punctuation marks are used to make sure that the reader understands what is written. Here is a little clipping that deals with the various marks in an interesting manner: Punctuation marks have personality. The period is imperative. It stay "Stop here'" The comma irf a free and easy little chap. He says, "Slow up a bit, get your breath, and then .trot along." The coloft calls, "Oh. look what's coming get ready.' ' QvOtatkm nwrka give notice that the writer is letting someone else do the talking for a while. Parentheses mark the sidepuths when we leave the mair. line for a detour. Apostrophes flash the message, "We're skipping something." The hyphen is a notice of partnership; sort of a typographical wedding ring." (JHAIN BUSINESS DISAPPOINTING The grain business through Prince Kupert this year is disappointing. It was announced early in the season that big shipments were planned but the plans have not matured. So far the amount of grain handled Is just about the same as last year. The result of tying up the elevator in the hands of the Wheat Pool seems rather doubtful under these conditions. It is to be hoped that better results will be obtained before the season cnd.s An ounce of prevention in every biscuit Keeps you healthy all winter Warm- Nourishing- Satisfying Eat two with hot milk.

It was reported on behalf of the Mmmlttee that good progress was being OBMe. The report of ode engineer on tile route had been secured and another was expected. They wanted full data m which to base these recommend a -'.ions to that they would have the full force of authority. SJUOBNT'S .tPIIHRKS The discussion was opened by R. 8. Sargent of Haeelton woo expressed hlra- If as very much Interested In Prince Rupert and congratulated the people on '.he progress made. He said be had lived In the Interior 37 years and had travelled over a great deal Of the terrl- ory through which the western outlet it the eace country wouM probably go. 'c thought moct people did not under-' unfl the geography of the country. The question of railway connection was a national one for the Peace country was an empire in itself. About self the country was located north of the Peace River and half to the south. The ?:kr Mountain range' extended east and west and the only river cuttina through the -ange was the Peace. That made the Peace peas the natural out let as far as Plnlay Purke. Prom thai point It could go south to Prince Oeorge or to a number of points west. Mr. Sargent pointed out that the dle-tance from Plnlay Porks to Prince Oeorge was the same as to Skeena Crossing. Vet Prince Oeorge was 600 miles from Vancouver and 400 miles from Prince Rupert whereas Skeena Crossing was only 170 miles from Prlnct lupen To build to Prince Rupert v.: -he only logical route. J H. PHlibury told of what had been done by the committee. I1TY IIKI.KO ATK Aid. Collart thought Prince Rupert was lacking In enthusiasm. Every other place was sending delegates and he Ml ended to move at the council meeting Thursday that Mayor MrMordle be sent to Ottawa to, present the views of Prince Rupert. He would like to see the Board of Trade also appoint a dele .;ste. He told of putting out petitions .n regard to this matter which had been largely signed. II would like to everyone talking Peace River. They hould get the whole district behind them. C. H. Orme moved that the matter wait urn the report of the committee had been received. Aid. Collart suggested that a petition be xent throughout the district askfaag for signatures. The discussion became more or less general after which it was decided to await receipt of the report of the committee before taking action.
