THE COLUMNIST I have long deferred the pubiica- | tion of the plan of my new Altruis- tic party. With several reasons, but I think the main oné, is the ab- surdity? of it, to the ordinary | individual who will vote against his | own interest, and comfort, and at' the same time think me crazy, odd or erratic. ) ; Well -anyway, I follow with the skeleton idea, necessarily incomplete, that can stand much amplification of defense, against thé attacks that doubtless will be madé. The Altruistic party combats econ- omic evils by thinking little of itself. but much more of everyone else. .In this it is contrary to every former party. Viscount Snowden said within the last few days, "Show me one nation, or a single statesman at the recent economic conference with one un- selfish plan." So with the dismal failure of other parties, we essay something novel, and entirely contrary to the past, believing that we cannot be worse and might be better. We do not put class against class, in fact in our final success we shall not have class. Certainly we must have different divisions of labour, but it will all be labour. There will be no parasites in our new world, - although these same in- sects will make a terrific fight before ultimate extinction. We anticipate several years, before gain ceases to be an ambition and Altruism is the finest thing in life. At first our members being few, will suffer terribly, because the prin- ciples will be so absurd? We believe ineradicably that com- petition does wrong to the mass of people, especially since machinery in all it's forms has lessened individ- uality. We seek that this same mach- inery will be a blessing, to the whole of mankind, and not to the few. As Altruists we do' not ask to for nothing, and shall begin this way: --- When the farmer's ie brings our weekly supply of butteriand says the price of four pounds is sixty cents. we shall say: "Mrs. Jones, you can- not make butter at that figure, hers is a dollar." Mrs. Jones in turn, will go into the store, not looking for slaughter merchandise, that .on the face. of it, shows sweat shop labour, and she will insist on paying better prices than are asked. A municipality will not drive its labor down to nothing, nor will any employer pare his wages, because the other factory is cutting costs. This will be the foundation of the Altruistic policy. It will be difficult to . begin, but it will? zrow. The economists will growl, saying, "This only leads you to rising prices all- round" But we will have the bulge on Mr. Economist, because we shail have a final joker up our sleeves. I wish you could see a graph 1 saw the other day wherein it was shown that ten per cent. of the pop- ulation of Great Britain owns ninety per. cent. of the wealth, and this follows in other countries. It will be our policy to level the mountains and fill the valleys, and in due course make the mountains like it. Altruisma will abolish the incentive gain. It is difficult to set arbitrary amounts, but as a .postulate, five thousand dollars a year will be the maximum yearly. income to anyone, be he high railway executive, bank president, or erstwhile financial mpg nate. ; of This will all tokh Yimin, and Sy come when moral obloguy settles upon those who value money as the best thing in the world. Again it is difficult to fix any sum, but we aim meanwhile, that one ; hundred thousand dollars will be the maximum estate of anyone. Boys will be apprenticed to labor just as fully as to profession, and having aequired a thorough know- ledge of what they do, be paid equally to the lawyer, doctor or engineer. We disclaim socialism, because il seeks to make us all alike. We sirive for individuality, and artistry, each getting reward in merit and not in money. We shall abolish our own tariff, doubtless suffering temporarily until other nations come to our views. This will happen inevitably, when the voting power of down trodden nationals asserts itself. Again, we cannot definitely set the hours of labour. We are not sure vet, we need time, thought, and ex- perience, but about twenty-two hours a week, should be sufficient in our machine controlled world, and this practically for everyone. My wife "What about household women?" I answer: "They also will says, To which get the benefit of machinery in our} new party." All that I have written hasty, very sketchy. But better material for a new party, any other. To take away zens the love of gain, and strife of inequality is the motive of the Al- truist. When he is successful, gen- eral prosperity will follow, and there will be no depression. Having left with you an is if offers than idea to germinate, having filled his mission, the Columnist says, "Good-bye and good-bye." NO DANGER OF TYPHOID IN CAMPS M. Harris, who was enployed in al camp . at English | in the local Red Cross| government road River, died Hospital last Thursday, effects of typhoid fever. from the The news that a case of typhoid] fever came in from one of the camps, naturally caused some alarm locally. and, fearing that an epidemic occur, medical authorities investigat- | ed immediately, with the result that it was found that the deceased had | only been in camp a few days. com- ing from Manitoba and that the dis- | ease had been contracted previous to his arrival. A brothér who ac- companied him east is now suffering from the same malady Arthur hospital. As an extra precautionary measure, Drs. Dingwall and Morison have ar- ranged for assistance and are now busy innoculating all men in camps in the district.

Browning, of Oxdrift, who carried 'off the first prize of $300 for his ex- 'hibit of Marrowfat Peas at the World's Grain Exhibition now being 'held at Regina.

Mr. Herbert Wright, one of Wabi- goon's pioneer farmers, is also to be congratulated on winning fourteenth place in the same class. This district was not so fortunate in the classes of Red and Alsike clover seed, the leading prizes in both these classes. going -to U.S.A. exhibitors. There was a heavy entry in both these classes, from parts outside of Canada, and Ontario ex- hibitors did well to get in the prize winning class at all.

Furniture, clothing, bedding and everything was destroyed, including a sum. of money amounting to over fifty dollars. -It is understood the place and con- tents were not covered by insurance which makes the loss most unfortun- ate. VAN HORNE DROP- PED TWIN BILL TO CAMP 1-B-8 TEAM Highwaymen Too Strong For Locals in All Departments. Howe Brilliant On Mound For Victors. Journeying over the sand dunes to Camp 1-B-8, at Tache, on Sunday, Van Horne was forced to bow to the 'strong camp team in both games of the double header. Six cars in all made the trip and experienced little difficulty in negotiating the highway from Borup's corner to the camp. This marked the first occasion when visitors were entertained at this camp and a decidedly pleasant im- pression was left with every person who was fortunate enough to take advantage of Foreman Ouimet's in- vitation. Although compelled to make use of every player in camp, | Roy Howe fielded a peppy aggrega- tion against a strengthened Van Horne team. The first. game played at 1.15 resulted Ina % to 6 victory for the boys from camp. Howe was brilliant on the mound whiffing fifteen batters and walking only one. Nine hits were registered against him, well scattered except in the third inning when three runs resulted from three hits and an error, the only error of the day on the part of the highway men. Bauer for Van Horne only yielded 10 hits but was charged with nine free passes to first base. The third inning proved Bauer's downfall when ten men faced him. Five hits, two walks and an error allowed five runs to tally. Four errors behind Bauer were largely responsible for the defeat. There was no noticeable weakness in any position. Sonny Rost was the most dangerous batter of the day, lining out two extra base hits in the first game. Sherwood and McKay were the only Dryden batters to collect more than single safeties. HE Camp 1-B-8 125--010--00x--9 10 1 Van Horne 003--002--002--6 9 4 TEAMS Camp 1-B-8--Fitzgibbon, Cuthbert. Anderson, Stevens, Lindsay, Paterson, Rost, Howe, Bennet and Gough. Van Horne--Stansfield, Bauer, Ker- ney, Sherwood, McKay, Barber, Mec- Monagle, Green, Hill and McDonald. Umpires--Lorne Whiting, Dryden; Duke McDonald, Camp 1-B-7. In the second encounter at 3.15, the camp boys made short work of the locals in a seven inning duel Howe in this game, although striking out only four batters and walking one, allowed only one scratch bingle. This came from the bat of Dick Bauer who poled a hot liner to the third baseman. It was too hot to handle and went for a hit. The brilliancy of the field is best illus- trated by the fact that with the ex- ception of Bauer who made first on a hit, Pinkerton was the only man to travel beyond tne initial sack. He drew a walk from Howe in the seventh inning but: died on third when the three batters to follow him failed. Ken Kerney started for the locals but ran into trouble before any were out in the first inning and relinquished his duties to Bauer. The damage had already been done, how- ever. Rost, Anderson, Stevens, Cuth- bert each connected for two solid blows of the delivery of Bauer and Kerney. Seven free trips to first also contributed to the 12-0 shut-out plastered on the locals. ra RE Camp 1-B-8 511--212--90--12 11 © Van Horne 000--000--0-- 0 1 3 Camp 1-B-8--Rost, Anderson, Pat- erson, Lindsay, Fitzgibbon, Stevens, Cuthbert, Bennet, Gough and Howe.

They say that civiliza- tion rests on world 'cooperation, but many fail to realize that cooperation is like charity; it begins at home. If it in every home, world co- operation would exist of itself auto- matically, a natural result. It is a give and take policy and the giving! comes first. existed Under the Rochdale plan, people form themselves into societies and purchase or produce their require- ments in bulk at wholesale prices. That plan passed the experimental stage many years ago. It is now a huge successful enterprise cutting down the cost of living for each ot its millions of members.

ISOFTBALL TO HOLD SPOTLIGHT ON CIVIC HOLIDAY, AUGUST Strong Teams From Ignace and Eton-Rugby to Appear on Local 'Diamond -- Three Games Billed. With the departure of the baseball team to Keewatin in quest of honors afield on Monday, August 7th, the Civic Holiday, the Dryden Softball Association will endeavour to give their loyal supporters three . first class exhibitions of this - popular recreation. Ignace, always sporting a snappy team is taking the field at 2 pm. against a strengthened Sandies' line-up. At 3.30 p.m. Van Horne will play host to a strong line-up from Eton-Rugby. The lccal opposition which will oppose Ignaca in the nightcap at 6.30 p.m. has ne: been determined, although it is ex- pected that either Eton-Rugby or a picked local aggregation will take the field. Permission has been received from the baseball club to use the baseball diamond for the day. This will af- ford the fans the opportunity to witness the games in comfort from the bleachers. A small admission charge will be made at the gates to assist in defraying the expense of the visiting team and to provide funds to enable' the local association to carry their season to completion without further demands 'upon the players themselves.
