NATIONAL

of

THE
party,
arrangements
for
which
are
being
completed,
will
be
held
in
Ottawa
September
30
and
October
1
and
2.
Its
purpose
will
be
to
select
a
new
leader.
The
occasion
will
be
the
fourth
national
convention,
having
the
same
objective
in
view.
From
the
time
of
Sir
John
A.
Macdonald,
until
1927
no
national
conventions
of
the
party,
to
choose
a
leader
had
taken
place.
Choice
was
always
made
by
the
senators
and
parliamentary
members,
representing
the
party,
from
among
their
own
number.
Now
the
membership
at
large,
through
its
delegates,
does
the
choosing.

PEACE
RIVER
DISSENSION.
A
FEELING
that
there
is
not
enough
sympathetic
interest
at
.Victoria
in
the
welfare
of
this
prov-!
ince's
northern
half
is
expressed
in
an
edi-i
torial
by
the
Alaska
Highway
News.
The
editor
of
J
the
Fort
St.
John
publication
feels
strongly
on
the
!
subject.
He
suggests
to
Peace
River
residents
that
!
now
is
a
good
time
to
discuss
seriously
the
possi-!
bility
of
requesting
the
government
of
Alberta
to
I
incorporate
within
that
province
the
B.C.
district.
;
A
number
of
reasons
are
given
in
the
editorial
;
for
the
cause
of
dissension
in
the
Peace
River
Block
;
sufficient
to
suggest
its
secession.
Rightly
or
j
wrongly,
the
northern
editor
has
made
the
follow-l
ing
comparisons
between
B.C.
and
Alberta
to
the
advantage
of
our
eastern
neighbor:
1.
Alberta
has
successfully
pushed
its
highway
system
north
while
B.C.'s
northern
highway
policy
!
is
bogged
down
in
waste
and
uncertainty.

2.
Alberta
ITas
successfully
attracted
'
large
oil
;
companies
to
spend
$50,000,000
on
drilling
wells
.'
there
while
this
province's
dog-in-the-manger
atti-'
tude
has
barred
oil
companies
from
prospecting
its
,
,,vast
oil
possibilities,
especially
in
the
Peace
River
country.
3.
Alberta's,
land

policy
is
progressive
enough
to
provide

"'
products
while
B.C.,
despite
having
to
import
essen-tial
foods,
refuses
to
develop
serious
land
clearing
and
land
settlement.
4.
Alberta's
financing
is
of
such
character
that
"'the
province
is
free
from
nuisance
taxes
such
as
the
three
percent
exaction
in
B.C.
I
5.
Alberta's
railway
policy
is
progressive
as
against
B.C.'s
policy
of
"millions
for
bond
interest
on
our
railway
but
not
one
cent
for
northern
exen-i
sion."
1
There
is
no
doubt
the
Fort
St.
John
editor
is
justified
in
pome
of
his
compaints.
In
these
cases,
Victoria
should
tke
heed.
Possibly
tnis
is
the
re-J
suit
desired
by
the
Peace
River
publication
rather
;
than
the
suggested
joining
