IE EDITORIAL GETTING THE RECORD STRAIGHT ... The Attorney General of British Columbia made a speech last night. We have given the speech consid erable space today and, in view of the amount of spaee we have devoted to the critics of the government, we regret that we could not have given more. Mr Maitlan.d gave an account of some of the good work that the coalition government of British Columbia, has been quietly carrying out in the way of assisting in the war effort, improving conditions in British Columbia as far as the exigencies of war would permit and, equally important, formulating plans to meet the problems which will arise after the wa? in a province whose place in the sun as the Pacific border of Canada will be more prominent than it ever was before. Mr. Maitland rightfully pointed put that the government of which he is a member has been working steadily at its job while some of its opponents have been concentrating their time and efforts at home and abroad on political activity. It is this statement of Mr.. Mailland's that leads us to suggest that it is about time the coalition government was taking effective steps to inform the people of the province, who ere long will be passing judgment upon it, of its undoubted good works and accomplishments so that the people may weigh the record against the tempting blandishments of perennial political orators and propagandists who recklessly promise an economic Utopia but who have consistently failed to give us the practical prescription of how they are going to bring, this about in this realistic and very human worm oi ours. The coalition government of British Columbia, undoubtedly, has a record of which it may well be proud. If it has failed in anv wav. it has Vippti in failing to tell the people of its excellent stewardship. We hope", that $he speech of Mr. Maitland's is but the commencement of a program of publicity to inform the 'people of what has been going on at Victoria in their behalf. Such enlightenment is something to which the public is entitled so that it may be possible to form a true judgment of the record. The opposition may be depended upon to dig up the faults and tell the public about them. But the public is entitled to hear both sides of the argument and it is up to the administration to see that its very worthy case is properly and widely presented. . TO COL. AND MRS. EVITT . . . "XfgterdayS news columns brought announcement of the; impending departure from Prince Rupert of Col. and Mrs. C. V. Evitt a departure which will be the cause of regret to the legion of friends they have gathered around them during their Deriod n'f resi dence here from the very earliest days of the community. ... Older residents will recall "Charlie" 35 years back as a youthful sawmill bookkeeper and his good wife as a unarming young bride. They were an engaging couple in those days and the years have made no change in the wide measure of esteem and popularity which they have so consistently enjoyed. Successful businessman and community worker as he has been, Col. Evitt will, however, be better remembered as a good soldier who enlisted early in the First Great War, served overseas, became prominent in the local militia on his return here and went at once into active service at the outbreak of the present conflict, winning important rank and command and, m due course, going on the retired list a few montns ago. Mrs. Evitt will be remembered for her active participation with her husband in church work and various community activities. The Evitts have been good citizens, the like of which all of us must agree we can ill afford to lose. We are happy to wish them Godspeed with the hope that they may be spared for many years to frequently revisit us. SPECIAL!
