startling statements on the runi- runnini business between canada and the united states would seem to point that authentic data bad been secured to prove that the united states was not dome all in its power to curb the influx of liquor into that country it would appear thai in spite of a the acclaim regarding the rum warfare being waped by our neighbor canada has already made more endeavors to fill their- part than tho neighbor did when like circumstances prevailed there seems to be some doubtastb whether our soutlvern neighbors arc really sincere in their endeavor to keep their country dry mr eulcrs statement would beem to intimate that more sincerity on the part of the united states would have to be shown before canada will make any further moves to help the revelations of mr eulef are startling to say the tcast and would seem to justify to a certain extent the failure of canada to pass more regulations to help m curbing the flow of rum across the border kittel rnti hi mr and mra

the action of the school board transpired last tuesday evening at which we were dismissed from the session of the public school board our editorial pages were alrcadj in type and ready for the press comment on the action was therefore curtailed to a brief news report and any editorial reference necessarily bad to be carried over to this week we have made an honest effort to secure the happenings and report the meetings of this body we felt that the activities of a body having charge in 1928 of the sum of 18935 80 was of sufficient interest to the contributors or ratepayers to require their being given to the contributors of the sum that the ratepayers expected such repots has been manifested the past week by the comments that have been passed as we said in our news item last week wc are
