THE
POLITICAL
CORNER
MR.
PANTER
"ON
THE
SPOT"
'
As
reported
in
the
local
newspapers
Mr.
Panter,
theC.
C.
F.
candidate,
at
the
meeting
recently
held
in
Prince
Rupert,
ma.de
th
threat'
that
the
writers
of
the
"Political
Corner"
would
be
Jailed
If
they
were
not
careful.
This
was
before
Mr.
Panter's
name
or
the
C.
C.
F.
had
even
been
mentioned
in
any
of
these
articles.
Of
course,
as
Mr.
Panter
knows
the
law
better
than
we
do
and
Intends
"to
have
it
on
us,"
we
are
terrified.
As
we
have
never
transgressed
the
bounds
of
free
and
fair
discussion
of
political
issues,
it
would
appear
to
us
as
though
Mr.
Panter
does
not
wish
to
have
the
C.
C.
F.
discussed
and
Is
looking
forward
to
the
time
when
the
Ogpu
will
incarcerate
us
for
such
criticism.
And
now
that
this
candidate
has
gone
off
at
halfcock,
we
shall
pay
our
compliments
to
him
and
ask
hm
where
he
stands
on
the
Oriental
question.
We
wish
to
hear
from
Mr.
Panter
whether
he
advocates
giving
the
vote
to
naturalized
Orientals
as
his
leader
Mr.
Woods-worth
does.
This,
we
may
surely
assume,
Is
a
matter
of
prime
political
Importance
to
the
electors
of
Skeena
Riding.
Come
on
Mr.
Panter,
let
us
have
your
statement
on
this
public
issue.
Are
you
with
your
leader
or
are
you
going
to
be
an
"outlaw"
within
your
party?
