Otrf''POLITICS The decision of the city council to hold a plebiscite on the pAWtton'ot retention of the provincial police takes the matter out of municipal politics. Whatever is decided upon by the people will be carried out by the city council, no matter what their person views. The chief matter of importance now is to select, mayor, who will, if chosen head of the police ,cpnnliSsJ6,ri, carry on the civic police affairs in a proper manner. The Daily News does not usually take part in civic elections, and this year will be no exception to the general rule. By paying the advertising rate any candidate can secure space to publish a platform or card, but electors will not be urged to vote for any particular candidate. Tomorrow night there is a public meeting called by S. M. Newton, which, it is probable, a great many will attend. It is also announced by Alderman Prudhomme that he will hold a meeting early next week. Reports of these meetings will be made, but candidates must not expect that anything more than a summary of what they say will be published. Most of the space will naturally be given to the mayoralty candidates. TJhbre has been considerable criticism of the last council in regard to their sewer building and other policies. It is idfctaod by .marry that money was wasted and thaton that account the city did not receive value for the cash expended. It will be for the members of the old council who are again offering their services to defend their actions and let the citizens see that they were not profligate with the people's money, else they may be adjudged guilty. At election time is when such matters are discussed and it is un to the people attacked to make it clear that what is charged is not true. or not he would stand for re-election. Friends who are pressing him to run are hopeful that he will finally consent. C. N. TRAIN IS DITCHED MELVILLE, Sask., Jan. 8.

R. terminals in the eity of Montreal. If for reasons of preference of route and destination it Is preferred to give a connection with the Canadian National line farther east than Haselton, the same engineer has surveyed a route which gives a connection between Hudson Hope und Fort Fraser, with a distance of 290 miles via, the Peace Pass or 940 miles via the'plne Pass. Total cost of construction by the Peace Pass would amount to $13,340,000, or via Pine Pass $11,040,000. On the occasion of his recent visit to the West, Hon. W. L. Mackenzie King announced Uiat the railways are dealing with the outlet problem, but that if they delayed too long the government would take up the question as a government project. The Northern Alberta Railways have all the program they can handle in the rebuilding of the old E.. D. ti B. C. and the extension of its branches to meet local requirements. This road, projected to serve the Peaoe River country and northern British Columbia, has been under construction so long that the first parts of it are worn out. The piers of the bridge across the Peace River were laid in 1917. yet today, after eighteen years, we find the rails extended only 50 miles west of this bridge.
