AT KINCOLITH WILL OBVIATE TROUBLES A II R A N D A L E, Naas River. Aug. G: The notification of the appointment of Dr. D. J. Macdon-ald of Kincolith as coroner and justice of the peace, has given general satisfaction throughout the district and it is felt that the difficulties which have hitherto confronted the forces of law and order hore will now be eliminated, also that there will be no repetition of a recent regrettable case, concerning which a charge of obstruction was laid against an Indian by a Fishery Guardian. The senior Dominion Fishery officer of the district entrusted the prosecution to a junior officer of the provincial police. By directions of the magistrate the Indian was defended by the Dominion Police officer of the In-dim Department, who promptly attacked tho authority of the Fishery Guardian in searching an Indian's boat without a search warrant and fbrthor claimed that if an; offence had, actually been comntRtedV the', bourse of justice had been unnecessarily impeded by the lack of prompt action on the part of the Fishery Guardian In not bringing the case to trial sooner. . The date of the alleged offence wns given as June 5. and the date of the trial vas July 25. The Indian h?id riot been away from the district during this period and had been allowed to believe that the charge was dropped. This constituted an injustice. The case was dismissed. Fishery Guardians In tho Naas River district will now have no difficulty in obtaining search warrants. ... . . , . , . TOMORROW'S TIDES Boston Grill Wednesday, August 7 im High .. 2:38 a.m. 22.6 ft.
