The “tariff reformers’ of Great Britain have sent word to the Conservative leaders at Ottawa to draw on them for a sum of half a million dollars to defeat reciprocity. The Conservative party is also expecting large sums of money from the opponents of reciprocity in the United States. This is the gist of the telegraphic despatches which came from Ottawa yesterday. They are worth probing into. Half a million dollars is a great sum of money. It can do a lot of good—if rightly used. Incidentally, it can do a lot of harm if improperly used. What is the motive behind the act of the ‘‘tariff reformers’’ of Great Britain to prompt them to an act of such a kind? Is it a good motive, or a bad motive? It can hardly be philanthropy.’ No philanthropist would send money from Great Britain to Canada. In England there are slum areas to abolish, child labor industries to root out, countless thousands of aged and infirm and unfit to be cared for. It cannot be philanthropy. It cannot be political idealism, for there are ancient wrongs and iniquities enough in Great Britain to spend money upon in combatting. Who are the ‘‘tariff reformers’’ in England? They are not tariff reformers at all. There is no commercial tariff to reform. England is a free trade country. ; The ‘‘tariff reformers’ in Great Britain are really ‘‘tariff de- formers.”” They are chiefly manufacturers and capitalists, who, are anxious to have a tariff instituted in Great Britain, in order to supplement their legitimate profits with the illegitimate profits which a tariff makes possible. They are so anxious to help the progress of the iniquitious tariff | system, in the hope that it will be extended to Great Britain, that they are ready to invest half a million dollars in their effort to prevent the Government of Canada from removing the taxes on food products. And this is done in the name of Imperialism? —? —? Reciprocity is merely a proposal to remove the taxes from the jin Glasgow, LIVE PICTURE ARTIST’S PLAN Will not aviv’ “until Wednes- day Next in Order that He May Secure Picture of Both Prince George and Prince Rupert at Sea. All Prince Rupert must prey for three months spell of superb summer sunshine to last long into the fall. There is every reason to believe it will say the old timers. But there is a_ special reason to hope that it will be as fine on Wednesday next as it has been. for many Wednesdays past. W. H. Harbeck, the long hoped for cinematograph specialist whose beautiful work shown by Dr. Slocum was so much admired, arrive on Wednesday 2nd August. He was expected by the Prince George tomorrow, but has altered his plans in order that he may have an opportunity of taking a moving picture of both the Geor- ge and the Rupert at the par- ticular point where they will pass each other on their north and south trips next week. INTEREST DUE FOR 450 YEARS Doubts Thrown on Right of Great Britain to the Orkney and Shetland Isles. will Doubts are cast upon the British ownership of the Orkney and Shetland Isles. The islands, may, in fact, only belong to Great Britain in the sense that a pawned watch belongs to the pawnbroker. At the opening of the Norse Gailery in the Scottish Exhibition Lord Salvesen that, speaking as a lawyer, he was not quite sure whether the islands do not belong to Norway still. He is fortified by very high au- thority in the that the crown of Norway,if prepared to said opinion food products of Canada and the United States. Its object is to reduce the high cost of living by removing the taxes from food. It} is a purely domestic piece of business between the people of Canad a | and the people of the United States. It is being contested by a portion |. of the Conservative party of Canada for political reasons, with money supplied by Canadian manufacturers who get inflated profits under | the tariff, by United States interests which fatten on illegal profits | under the tariff, and the British ‘‘tariff reformers’’ who hope some day to join their companions at the swill tub of tariff-wrung extortions. | If the Conservative leaders at Ottawa had a sense of national | spirit, they would throw the tainted money of the United States! grafters dnd of the British tariff deformers in their faces, and tell them to devote it to undoing some of the Jcsieted aie aa a in their own countries. This combination of iitied' Beate States plutocracy and British gold | to defeat the efforts of the Government of Canada to legislate for | the best interests of the people of Canada, should enlighten the eyes| of the people to the nature of the opposition that is being made against | the reciprocal proposal to abolish food-taxes. GOVERNMENTAL CARE OF HEALTH In the social work of appiying the laws of hygiene and sanitation, municipal, state and~national governments must all take a hand. | Each has a different function to perform. To the municipality falls the task of providing for its citizens | clean air, clean water, clean milk, clean streets, clean houses, and | protection from infectious diseases. This implies abolition of the| smoke nuisance, the closing of the sewers, prompt removal of the garbage, adequate cleaning of the streets, enforcement of ordinances against spitting, maintenance of an absolutely pure water supply, inspection of meat, milk and other foods, enactment and enforcement | of strict building laws, publication and isolation of infectious disease, | support of bacteriological laboratories, distribution and administration of anti-toxin and vaccine, free medical service, and above all, regular inspection and free treatment for the children in the public schools. To the state falls the duty of seeing that the vital resources of the nation are not sapped at the root through child labor and the industrial employment of prospective and nursing mothers, or wasted by the subjection of its adult citizens to unphysiological hours of labor or conditions in mine, shop or factory. The function of national governments is to prevent the impor- tation of disease, through strict quarantine at all ports of entry, and the transfer of disease from one state to another, through strict super- vision of all inter-state carriers; to disseminate information on every point pertaining to the vitality of the people; and to collect and tab- ulate vital statistics—a most important branch of the work of con- servation which is at present sadly neglected.—(F.
