EUGENIA Policed To Death '' \Vcarc in dungcr and being policed to death as well as tuxcJ to death in this country. The North West Mount- ed Police rigimlly designed for the pole purpose uf enforcing law and order in the then unorganized territory be- yond the Great Lakes, have lately had thci-- Held of operations extended to Eastern Canada as well. Meantime several Provinces, including those of the West, have organized Provincial police forces of their own. Thus \vc have, at least in considerable sections of Canada, three different peace forces Federal, Provincial and Municipal each one of which is responsible to a different authority. Aside- from the needless cost involved in such a multi- plication of law enforcing machinery, there is also a certainty of a conflict in jurisdiction arising at times. We have, in fact, already witnessed something of such conflict at Peterboro where un- pleasant incidents between Provincial and Municipal police have occurred. In the Western Provinces incidents of like nature have arisen as between Dominion and Provincial forces," says the Farm- ers Sun and we can quite agree with our contemporary that we are being noticed to death. There is absolutely no excuse for maintaining the horde of provincial police in the country districts The Canadian farmers arc a law abiding class and the municipalities are quite capable of taking care of their owr; people. Many petty cases are brought into court through the meddlesomeness of the police that would be better for all concerned to be lcf alone. Colling- wood Enterprise.
