Registration in tie Down town hotel District a is a result of the new political conditions prevailing in tils province. In past registrations hotels of a certain Type were under orders to do a specified amount of Logus registration. This was easy for them by the provision in the election act. Which permits absentees to be registered by the per son with whom they last at each election these hotel Yut on the list Large numbers of names purporting to be those of out of town boarders. Under the pro visions of the Law which a sworn declaration of eligibility proof shift everything but the most no Ulnic testimony it was found Imo Clear the voters lists of names. A hotel clerk with an Iron nerve Zirul some facility in equipment which appears to be pos by a considerable number of Load the list with illegal registrations and keep them Luiere despite every Effort to remove them at the court of revision. In entry Winnipeg last year hundreds of bogus names remained upon the , although the liberals did everything possible under the Law to secure their removal. Thanks Low Evev to an efficient organization determined scrutineers the liberals blocked the voting of these fraudulent names on election Day and the elaborate preparations of plug the ballot boxes fell to the ground. This year the hotels have other things to worry about than commit ing crimes for crooked political Bosses. Some of them arc out of business others have a Date with the exec Pioneer in imminent Prospect and they Are All in fear of undergoing an operation for the excision of their bars. The hotel is an Agency of corrupt politics has Ruu its course in Manitoba. The registration in Winnipeg so As resident voters is concerned leaves Little to be desired. No doubt a Good Many absentees most of them soldiers serving in Europe have overlooked but so far As he coming provincial election concerned this involves no hard ship. Taken As a whole the list just is the cleanest Ever compiled in Winnipeg and it will enable the people to express their views one of these Days upon the political issues of the Day. Bug but there is. An element of shrewdness in it and in the hand of diplomats and publicists less plunder headed than the germans some damage might be done to the exist ing cordial relations Between. Great Britain and the United states. Be cause it is a fact that Britain s control of the seas which is so much m evidence at the present time operates to the injury of Neutral Commerce hits the United states in a somewhat tender the pocket. Great Britain has some reason to be thankful that the Ger Man Case in the United states is in the hands of plunderers like or. Dernburg and count von Bernstorff. As for the German chatter about the seas not being free the sea is As free As the air in times of peace. In the thirty years in which the German merchant Marine was find ing its Way to every port in the world.

When the time j Germany at Daybreak going at a r _ Speed. Weimar a tin of. Money jews milled Are thus Hundred mile came for a test of strength it was speedily demonstrated that it was great Britain and not Germany that held the Trident. Whereupon the seas remained free to British merchantmen and ships generally subject to the guerilla War waged against them by Germany by Means of her submarines while the seven seas became a closed tract to Gor Man ships whether merchantmen or ships of War. Great Britain held the seas against Germany owing to her overwhelming strength on the water just As Germany held Bel glum because of her overwhelming strength on land. Germany with that childish in consequence which has marked All her attempts to justify her Causa before the world complains that it is not fair for great Britain thus to rear the advantages of her naval strength. If Germany a 3 been Able to drive the British Navy into protected harbours Clear the seas of the British merchant Flag and blockade the shores of England the ears of the world would be dinner with the German shout of Triumph but things being the other Way about the whine about great Britain s Mastery at sea and appeals is burst and Given to the Home of Goethe.

The itinerary is completed the last v the charges the disinclination of the Public to take the Fullerton charges at. Their i inc value pending the production of supporting evidence Lias been amply vindicated by the retractions which or. Fullerton found it advis Able to make before the commission on wednesday morning the Gravity of the charges rests upon the declaration that Money passed from one party to another first to secure a withdrawal of elec Tion petitions against Roblin sup porters and secondly to bring about lae stifling of the Royal commis Sion. The evidence Given by or. Wink ice and or. Hudson on wednesday revealed the facts both As to the suggested saw off which did not materialize and to the proposal Flat in the event of certain conditions which however did not arise civil and criminal actions might for time being replace the inquiry to the Royal commission. In neither Case was there any suggestion that Money passed or was even mentioned. Or. Fullerton in deed. Expressly disclaimed any Sug that either of these men know anything of any Money Side 10 the negotiations with which they were connected. To also included j r. Johnson in his disclaimer. Or. Kellerton s original charges of graft against the Liberal govern am the Liberal party As a arc thus changed to a charge against the personal and political Honor of Premier Norris. It is important thai the Public mind should be seized of this important fact.

I Felt sorry enough for the poor wretches in the water but after All they were civil ians and every one knows what a monstrous part the civilians played in this struggle vain for know whether our German fellow citizens right in assuming that moral obligations have no influence with us and whether Force is the Only element that commands american re Spect. This would be a conflict that would have some meaning and we would have a Chance teaching these would be dictators that there Are moral obligations upon our naturalized citizens and that there is still an ele ment of strength in the native Ameri can. The supposed interference with Neutral Trade and the operation of. The British orders in Council under the stress of Dally warlike necessities dwindles into absolute insignificance beside this arrogant dictation of the foreign element which has found Shel ter Prosperity and Freedom among us.

Of course there Are business interests in the United states which would like to do business with Ger Many at present. There is a Large Market at profitable prices in Ger Many for foodstuffs for Copper for motors for rubber for practically every thing the United states can sell Germany would be willing to pay it High Price for these articles. Conversely United states importers would like to bring in from Ger Many shipload of German goods on which they could make a hand some profit. Between the two sets of would be bar gainers there lies the British Navy with its prohibition of Trade As a weapon of offence a galust Germany. The germans whine because while the United states trades freely with great Bri Tain and France her merchants Are not allowed to Trade with equal Freedom with Germany and they want the United states to apply pressure to permit equal Freedom to them. Great Britain trades with the United states because they control tha Atlantic Germany can Trade with the United states in War time when her Fleet controls the Atlantic and not sooner. The situation is to Plain that a Chils can see it. The British blockade of Germany is no doubt inconvenient to Many United states business interests but they will have to put up with the inconvenience As an incident of the War. The throttling of German Commerce is one of the privileges which great Britain has in this War. And she in tends to take full advantage of it. Or.

They came that Manitoba is destined some Day to produce enormous quantities of Timber creating hundreds of new industries and. Advancing the. Prosperity of the province and Dominion has Long been the belief of practical foresters. There is no conflict in this belief with the cause of agriculture. The Forest Engineer is laying no weird plot to extinguish wheat and. Stock raisins with stands of Timber. All he seeks is to turn the Forest areas to the highest account to compel them to produce revenues to the people of Manitoba 10 or 20 times in excess of the present sums and to hitch the same intelligence to Forest manage ment that now distinguishes the Farmer acid his oat Field. Although most of us have thought of Manitoba As a Prairie province Criven Over to Field crops it has always had a considerable area of Forest and by the recent extensions of the boundaries Large territories have been added which Are almost entirely forested land. Manitoba and Sweden. Can these valuable sources of sup ply for the world wide Commerce in Wood manufactures fee turned to such As to duplicate some Day this returns from agriculture Why not asked or. R. H. Campbell Dominion director of forestry and he proceeded to draw a striking comparison with Sweden a Northern country with similar conditions of soil and Cli mate. While the population of swe Den is More than ten times that of Manitoba the total area of the latter is 77.000 Square Miles greater with a land exceeding that of Sweden by acres. In 1911, Manitoba s 103 Mills ac1 courted for a lumber Cut of cubic feet. The number of swedish w Ood working industries by the Lasi statistics is and the Timber output cubic feet the Mills afford employment to people. Against Manitoba s acres of Forest reserves directed by the Dominion forestry Branch swe Den s a government reserves Are acres do per cent Oil which is forested and the net Rev Tiu therefrom is a staff of men is employed of whom 230 Are technically trained. Heavy expenditures required. Sweden has probably the advantage Manitoba in having1 better Drain age in some of the Northern Areat. And having a More extended sea coast with quicker and cheaper a Cess to Long established markets by i cannot Sec that other conditions exist that give Sweden an advantage Over Manitoba it the Forest areas were in e Ood condition. This the Are not at present nor will they b for a Long time to come and it Wil rect ire a Lars e expenditure on Protection and improvements without re Gard to Revenue during that time to bring the forests into Good condition and to produce a Revenue that Wil More than offset the expenditure under the administration of the fed eral government the forests h been allowed to get into such an unsatisfactory condition and the i Edera government should make the Neces sary expenditure from its larg i revenues to place such a great Nat ural and so important to the Prosperity of the province and o the whole country in a condition o permanent Security and producing Power so that it May regularly Anc continuously produce a Supply for the Domestic needs of the population u Revenue for the state and the raw materials for industries. The investigations of the rate of growth of Timber in the pro Vince of Manitoba compare favourably with the rates of growth in european countries such As Germany Friio and. Sweden where forestry is being practice profitably. The rotation o the period required for maturing crop of Trees from seed in German with Spruce and Pine from Jaq to 8 years in Sweden the rotation is 6 to so years for pulpwood and 100 to 120 years for lumber. The invest Gallons of rates of growth of sprue1 and Dine so far As they have been carried out Here indicate that on Ordinary Well drained soil the period o rotation might be within Simila limits.

The War Day by Day the German mind readers of English dailies must be writer in tha London times who has ust about fed up with special articles from alleged Neutral of Pevers describing the wonderful unanimity and enthusiasm of. The 3erman people for the War. There Las been a purpose no doubt in the simultaneous outpouring these articles. It has part of the Vaka Ninor up process which has Jeen i oink on in great Britain for he last six weeks for the purpose of tire fug up the people to a Resolution or greater sacrifices and More de people have earned something from 11 months if War dui ins which period at least me Man in every five military age Las Flag ured in the casualty lists could be inferred from a general of human nature even Ermine action. That the German been visiting Germany says that it is no longer pretended by the. Intellectuals that Germany was the victim of aggression by her neigh Bors. They still Call it a defensive War however a word which has a special meaning to the German Militarist. A defensive War is one which is waged against a rival that threatens to be is a Case of in David Harum s phrase doing to the other fellow what you think he is to do to you and doing it the masses have however until recently accepted with the utmost docility the official View that Germany is Fiir Hitrig for her life Given the Post director of railways for the South african Field Force.

Round Between the Orange warped treacherous War upon taut some knowledge of the real facts of the Case is beginning to percolate after making allowances for through the National consciousness. From More than one source comes the statement that the German authorities Are fearful of the possible effect upon Public opinion of a spectacular reverse on a scale so Bis that news of it could not be sup pressed. Unfortunately no such blow has been administered by the allies the German losses the sum total of which is beginning to weigh heavily on the German mind come from a thousand minor engagements. If the actual facts Are As indicated it would be very unwise to deduce from them any expectation of an impending collapse of German Power. A Berlin dispatch in a. New York paper says that As the National peril increases the likelihood grows that Power will More pass into the hands of the extremists. There Are it is believed two parties Strus s Lins for control in Germany. One led by von Tirpitz the whole Sale murderer who is head of the German admiralty is for ruthless and on a scale hitherto unknown the other headed by the Chancellor is at least in comparison moderate in its views. The next will probably be the Triumph of the extreme Jing Oes and a renewed attempt by desperate exertions to smash the allies with a corresponding speeding up in the exhaustion of Germany in men and . Such a course of action assuming that it brings us Corn must hasten the apart not jealous neighbors who have dodder Rivers. It was essential aberrations of the German War but it is not to base a judgment on deductions of this nature. Resolute As the German authorities Are to keep up the pretence to the world that there is not even he slightest rift in the National Soli Darity news filters out from time to time which shows a state of mind very different from the exultation of ast Auer St. Could there be any Jiing More significant than the news hat the German authorities have suppressed some six so playlist news papers including the great org an of he party in Berlin for publishing an anti War declaration by leading members of the social democratic party plainly the authorities dare lot permit free discussion of the War and its causes. In the prussian chamber of dept Tes thursday last the socialist Mem aers were bold enough to say that we have the masses with us and he masses want the socialist member Braun recorded his disapproval of talk about continuing he War in order to carry out wild plans of there is a Good Deal less talk about annexation in Germany thai there was eleven months ago. It is reported from Berlin that the German news papers have been ordered to abstain Croni discussing plans for the even Tual annexation of. Belgium by Ger Braun like his socialist col leagues holds that the majority of the German people earnestly desire that no Opportunity for securing Early peace be they reject annexation plans of All kinds. What the German people do want is peace without bringing humiliation or subjection to other this is very different from the kind of talk that was Universal last August. There arc indications that the Ger Man people Are beginning to do a Little thinking for themselves As to this War and the causes of it. A secrecy should be pro for March m list that or.
