WORTH $1.30 FOR Highway Across Canada of Great Interest to North Discuss Question at Next Meeting at Cochrane When the Northern Associated Boards of Trade hold their next quarterly which will be about the middle of September in Cochrane, the chief question that will come up for discussion, it is expected, will be the Trans-Canada Highway and its route across the continent. The executive of the Association believes that the time is ripe for bringing the claims of this sec- tion of the North Country before the new government at Ottawa, and with this end in view, the member boards have been written to by the president, C. W. Wright of Englehart, urging that they give some time to consideration of the question in the meantime. In his letter to the member boards, President Wright says in part: The proposed Highway was the subject of much discussion during the recent election. The successful party has indic- ated that some definite steps to- ward its construction might be expected, and as a special session of Parliament will be called im- mediately with a view to reliev- ing the unemployment situation is it unreasonable to anticipate that some immediate action might be expected, by the Dom- inion Government, relative to the Highway? If so, should we not be prepar- important matters before the North at the present time is the question of the Trans- Gepada Highway. It must play a ti endous part in" |gress, and it is a mat e " importance to us that it. Shonlt es through our Districts and thence West 'from Cochrane. In this matter, matters of-a as in so many public nature, it is the section or community that consistently advocates its cause that eventually realizes its am- bitions, and I feel that this As- sociation should take the lead in this matter, set the example, gath er all available data, and if nec- essary present the case to those who ultimately will have 'to deal with it. Will you please do all possible to ensure the success of our Coch- rane Meeting, and arouse all pos- sible interest in this matter of the Trans-Canada Highway. aS ee eS ACCUSE POLICE CHIEF IN TECK TOWNSHIP OF NEGLECT OF DUTY Chief William Shane, head of the Teck township force, has been suspended by the police commit- tee of the municipal council pend- ing further enquiry into a charge of alleged neglect of duty that formed the basis of the action taken. It is claimed that the chief, present in the premises of Sam Kalambar when Constables Bird and H)ighes went there to arrest the occupant on a charge of as- saulting the latter officer, took the warrant from his subordin- ates, telling them he would at- tend to the matter, and that noth ing further was done. Provincial Constables Byrne and Durnford subsequently executed the warrant, and Kalambar is to appear in police court on Friday to answer the charge. At the same time two youths, brothers named Tremblay, will come be- fore Magistrate Atkinson charg- ed with destroying property, it being alleged they threw stones through windows at the rear of Kalambar's place and were pur- sued by Kalambar. In the subsequent proceedings it is alleged Kalambar struck one of the youths and also beat up Constable Hughes when that officer went to his place to en- quire into the trouble. Later, Constable Hughes secured the as- sistance of his fellow-officer, Constable Bird, and they went back to the Kalambar place, meet-ing the chief there. Associated Boards of Trade to Ontario meeting, Heart Failure Causes Death of Latchford Man Engineer Succumbs to Heart Failure While Bathing - in Lake Alone After visiting Bay Lake for his daily dip, Harry Mallory, aged 59 was found on Tuesday morning dead from heart failure on some logs on the shore of the lake. He had been employed as engineer at Grant's mill, Latchford, during the summer months and, accord- ing to another workman at the mill, Sam Quesnel had been in the habit of going each evening to Bay Lake for a bath after his day's work. Quesnel who found the body on Tuesday morning, stated that he had seen him going to the lake as usual on Monday evening. When Mallory did not turn up for work in the morning, and it was found that he had not returned to his boarding place, a search party was organized and the body found. Coroner Dr. W.C. Arnold, of Haileybury, was notified and, with provincial police from Cob- alt, investigated the circumstan- ces. An examination of the body showed that death was due to heart failure. An inquest was held on Tuesday evening in Cob- alt, when a verdict of death from natural causes was returned. When the body was found it was half dressed, but whether the un- fortunate man had succumbed before or after entering the water fofhis dip could not be definitely ascertained, as he had lain on the logs all night. 3 3 Mr. Mallory's home was at ee al Re case gee anda Field, Ont., and he had been Toft: ze oe Leekaetag Sona working at Latchford through|* a the summer. He was a widower.

Mr. H. E. McKee, of Cobalt, Re- turning Officer for Temiskaming South, has this week issued a proclamation to this effect, fixing September 8th as polling day, if a poll should be necessary. It is considered extremely un- likely that there will be any op- position offered to Hon. W. A. Gordon, K. C., in the bye-eléction Political prophets throughout the country believe that in all cases where the Ministers must by law go again before their constitu- ents, they will be returned unop- posed. This would appear likely, as the. victory of the Conservat- ive party at the polls last month was decisive and little could be gained by enforcing unnecessary expense by taking a vote. ao. 5 eee The Porcupine Advance last week told of the explosion of a spare tire on the back of a stand- ing motor car.

A. Gordon is Tendered Hearty Welcome Whole Town Turns Out to Meet Returning Minister and Great Reception Tendered; Presented With Gold Watch by Mayor Hamilton on Behalf of Citizens With the streets and buildings gaily decorated with bunting and banners and with flags flying and almost the whole population of the town on hand, Haileybury on Monday evening welcomed home the Honorable W. A. Gordon, K. C., lately appointed Minister of Immigration and Colonization and Minister of Mines in the new government formed by Hon. R. B. Bennett. Mr. Gordon, who ar- rived by motor from Ottawa, was given a great reception. Hun- dreds of citizens met him on the outskirts of Cobalt when he ar- rived over the Ferguson High- way with J. G. Dickenson, of the O'Brien Mine, who had accom- panied him to Ottawa last week, and a great procession of cars, led by the Englehart pipe band, drove slowly through the streets of the silver town and on to Hail- eybury. At the front of the court house, where the most of the decorating had been done, the people assembled, and the new Minister was escorted to the steps, where Mayor Geo. T. Ham- ilton presided over the ceremon- ies of welcome. Mrs. Gordon was given a seat of honor beside her husband and Mrs. C. C. Farr, Mr. Tom Magladery, Joyal and W. Charbonneau were in the party on the platform. In opening the ceremonies Mayor Hamilton spoke of the pleasure it gave him in thus wel- coming home a citizen who had brought honor to Haileybury in this way. It was the first time in his long experience in munic- ipal office, he said, that he had been called on to extend a recep- tion to a Minister of the Crown. The citizens might be of differ- ent political faiths and of differ- ent religious faiths, but they were one at heart on an occasion of this kind, the mayor said. He told a few anecdotes of Mr. Gor- don's career as a lawyer in the North, which gave the crowd a laugh, assured the Honorable gentleman that the people of Haileybury were proud of him and helped to make Mr. Gordon's homecoming a real warm one. Mayor Hamilton called on Mrs. C. C. Farr, whom he adressed as "Mother" Farr, to adda- few words of welcome. Mrs. Farr spoke briefly of the pride she felt in seeing a MHaileybury citizen and personal friend elevated to such a high office, which was a deserving honor. Dr. J. A. H. Joyal, on behalf of the French Canadian people of Haileybury, extended congratula- tions to Mr. Gordon in an inter- esting address. The doctor was delighted, he said, at the honor that had .been conferred on a Haileybury citizen. He had known that Honorable Mr. Gor- don had the prestige and person- ality for the office, but he "had hardly expected he would go so high so soon." It was a judic- ious choice, Dr: Joyal said. Mr. Gordon was exactly the man that the mining industry of the North needed, and the fact that he was to administer the department of immigration and Colonization, coming as he did from a cosmo- politan section of the country, would be for the good of the whole country. The doctor spoke of the danger of commun- ism taking root, of the lesser un- derstanding between the two great races which make up the dominion, developed since the war and of the good worka strong man could do towards building up unity of national spirit. Mr. Gordon, he felt sure, would prove a strong factor in this desired development of the national spirit. He was convinc- ed that he would respect the Con- federation pact and would treat with justice and equality the two great races, thus earning and re- ceiving the 'suport of all. Dr. Joyal extended congratula- tions also to Mrs. Gordon, to whom he declared, Mr. Gordon owed a great deal for her encour- agement and help. He was con- vinced that on numerous occas- ions her assistance had kept her husband from despairing in the election campiagn, and her cheer- ing words of comfort had largely been responsible for his success The doctor's speech was a very pleasing one and was delivered very earnestly. At this stage of the proceed- ings Mayor Hamilton presented Mr. Gordon with the gold watch, on behalf of the citizens, and two little girls, Mary Miller and Mar- garet Legris each came forward with bouquets of flowers and were rewarded with a kiss by the Minister. The mayor explained that the girls were chosen as representing the two principal sections of the townspeople, the one whose par- ents were Roman Catholic and Liberal and the other of an Eng- lish speaking Conservative fam- ily. This part of the program was greeted with great applause by the assembled citizens. Mr. Gordon's address was brief, but delivered with an earn- estness that showed he takes his new duties very seriously. While he could never be unmindful of the wonderful reception, he said, he was conscious that the honor conferred was not entirely on him personally, but on the dist- rict of Temiskaming as a recog- nition of its great importance in the Dominion. The task ahead would probably prove difficult, but it would be given his very best efforts, he said, and he was sure that the best help of all the people would be his. He realized his lack of experience and would ask the indulgence of even his political foes and if he failed of accomplishment it would not be for the lack of industry and a de- sire to do what was best for all the people. Mr. Gordon referred to the re- cent campaign, saying he had a feeling of happiness to hnow that no bad friends had been made and no divisions had occurred am- ong the people of Haileybury or district. They had got the best out of the contest through exam- ining the problems that confront- ed the country and now all could join together, both races and both parties, and try to accomp- lish some good for all. He made it clear that no special interests would receive special considera- tion in his administration of the departments alloted to him, but that his best efforts would be ex- erted for the general good. Re- ferring to Dr. Joyal's address Mr. Gordon said that he trusted that the good feeling between the two great races was being rapidly re- stored throughout the country, as it was being cemenied in Hailey- bury, and he promised to do all in his power toward that end. "With the two great races march- ing hand in hand," the speaker said, "Canada need have no fear for the future." At the conclusion of the Minis- ter's address, hearty cheers were accorded him by the gathering and he was driven to New Lis- keard, where a_ generous wel- come was given. Mr. Gordon has again left for Ottawa, where business in con- nection with his department a- waits him. His plans are indefin- ite yet, but it will be necessary for him to spend the greater part of his time in the Capital. } The Week's Weather Week Ending Aug. 13th. 1930 Max.
