Hon. Wesley A. Gordon, minister of labor, has - been the spokesman for the cabinet and he publicly exposes the fallacy. Mr. Gordon shows that the Tolmie Government delayed from August to October before information was available making approval of any work possible and that, since that, the details of the work as required by their agreement have not been sent to them. In spite of the inaction of the provincial government, the federal government made several advances of money toward relief and also came to their rescue at New York. SPECIALS Canadian per lb.

I wish to say that this it not so.

I am not in favor of a change in our present efficient police system. 2. From observations ln past years as to conditions having developed under police commission administration, most of which no doubt is still fresh in the mind of oar citizens, I have no ambition for such office. 3. By lending my name as a candidate in the election next week, it jmay be the means of assisting In 'bringing our police administration ; bock under political and petty local I influences. My personal advice to our electors Is to make sure to cast their ballot next Thursday, the 18th, in favor of continuing our present provincial police. It has been cited against the police that they cancelld the licence of a reckless ear driver. Their greater omission to my mind Is that they have not cancelled the licences of more drivers of the same class. The recent pit-lamping case has been brought Into the issue as well, in spite of the fact that this took place outside the eity limits. This was a matter In the hands of the game warden and had nothing whatever to do with the city police. Your very truly. JOHN DYBHAVN.

IN A RECENT testimony fnn to the Senate Committee of theUnited States at Wash. . rton, D. C, by Dr. Graham Lusk, Professor of Physiology t Cornell University, beer was described as "a good thing for the people." Professor Francis G. Benedict, Director of the Nutrition Laboratory of the Carnegio Institute at Boston, Mass., explained experiments which demonstrated that alcohol taken moderately (as is ths case when drink lng beer), had food qualities b calories easily assimilable. Farther, Dr. Francis Fronzak, Healt 'icer of Buffalo, stated deaths from alcoholism had decreaseu o A in that city since ths Peace Bridge to Canada was opened. The opening of the bridge, he safd, permitted thousands of people to enter Canada and obtain "good beer" whereas, before such access was available, they went to the city parks and drank "t i whisky" on Sundays and holidays. He also stated that deaths from alcoholism during the year following the opening of the bridge were forty o pared with eighty previously. These admittances show that good beer is highly recommended by doctors and people who know. Pilscner Lager Beer is proven by analysis to be pure, healthful and rtimfcifig. PILSENER BEER!

Then, why cannot this city own and control its own police force, without dictation or Interference from the outside, and give employment to local eltlzens badly ln need of it? Surely Prince Rupert Is large enough to Kovern iUelf, and what could be more democratic than a pflllce force supervued by a police commission, responsible to the pub- . lie each year for election arid reelection?
