COMMITTED leader, the choice and his accep tance settles one thing about! which there had been considerable-doubt of late whether he would remain in the provincial field. where his party is confident that he will soon be Premier, or move-to the federal field, which It is an open secret had made overtures to secure his cervices. Mr. Pattullo did, however, as his close friends thought , he would do choose to stake his political fortunes In the provincial field where he has served so long and so ably. The now permanently appointed liberal leader is one of those men who though prominent enough In the affairs of his province, has aoi yet found his way into the l'Who Who?" books of the country. He Is an aggressive man and one f the doughtiest political cam paigners in British Columbia. Yet. unlike many who have tasted success and public acclaim as he has, there Is still something of the modest about Mr. Pattullo. That is why. although widely known, he Is not found In the "Who's Who?" books. Born In Ontario Mr. Pattullo was bora at Woodstock. Ontario, on January 19, 1873 of old Canadian stock.

Tolmie Government, Heading ' Fast For Ruin, Is Strongly Condemned By Liberal Chief KAMLOOPS, May 31: Strong condemnation of tlu Tolmie government was sounded by T. I). Pattullo, newly elected provincial Liberal leader, in his first public speech following his elevation. "The Tolmie government has shown and still is showing bitter partisanship through the civil service, the new Highway Act, by the appointment of a three-man liquor commission and the setting up of a political machine the like of which has never before been seen in -the country," he declared. "Fr,qm tho first day of the. present regime, the Liberals went to frips with it. We have wrestled with them for two sessions now and we won't let them go until we have dragged them to the mat," Mr. Pattullo promised.

Dr. Bell will be making a trip to the mine early In June, and should all difficulties be ironed out at that time there Is the very bright prospect of a crew going to work on the extension of tunnels to explore new ground acquired by the Duthlc company.
