§ Of "They come with their damnable flag and take you!"‘ are the words which it is gharged were used by. John Macdonald, of Toronto, in a speech at Sydney, N.S,, to the striking miners. He has now to stand his trial for "seditious utâ€" terances."". Freedom of ‘speech is upheld jby .evâ€" ery: British citizen, but there has been too great ‘a tendency in recent years to allow enemies of Canada, and :of the empire, to promote strife (by just such utterances as those charged against ‘this man: Macdonald to go unpunished. / A few good stiff gaol sentences will serve as a warning and as a deterrent in the future to all those of like mind.~~ An amendment to the liquor Jaw in England prohibits:sale to;boys or girls under 18 years of age. This is a considerable step and will no doubt be productive of lasting good.. One of the earlier measures in this province prevented, sale to young persons. In those days liquor shops were numerous. ~Patrents were in the habit of sending children to these places for a quart of whiskey or.a half gallon of beer. ‘[The restricâ€" tion worked well and the age limit was soon afterwards increased,â€"and no person ‘under 21 was able to buy.> The result in England will be watched closely by those who believe in restricâ€" tion but oppose prohibition. ; Clearing the forests was one of the Herculean tasks performed by the pioneers of ~Ontario. Many of them.died without â€" having completed the work on the hundred acres which they had received from the Crown. There is a task in the opposition «direction before the pioneers of the Western Provinces, that of providing fqrests ‘for protection and profit. The ‘efforts being put forth are evidenced by the fact that last year 5000 trees, half maple, half ash, were planted by the school children of the Saskatoon district. This year the number was increased to 10,000. That fi;goodly percentage will mature is earnestly to be‘ desired."" % _ YTODAY is the TOMORROW you worried about YESTERDAY and all is â€"well," is a motto found in many offices. What a marvellous transâ€" formation would take place if men and women would cease worrying. â€" They would‘ then have time for planning and working and accomplishâ€" ing the thing they are worrying about and deemâ€" ing impossible. «Canada‘s greatest wheat ‘crop was in 1915, when 350,000,000 bushels _ were ithreshed. The crop prophets tell us that this.year the yield will approach more nearly the 500,000,000 bushels. Those most directly concerned do not value such publicity.â€" They argue, and with some cause, that when a big crop is assured the price drops. It is now fow enough. But the world‘s supply is known and the price regulated accordingly, no matter what position is taken by individual.counâ€" tries. A wheat crop of «half a billion bushels should gao far to remove.some of the difficulties about which so much has been heard in recent years. |__ & PAGE TWO _ iIt bothers a lot of people because they :can‘t find out a lot of things that they know would hurt their feelings. | â€" «In one of his speeches during the provincial election Mr. Drury was reported as saying that Mr. Biggs was building roads that would last for 500 years. If correctly reported ‘he knew he was talking nonsense. In every part of theâ€"provâ€" ince roads on which very large sums have been expended are not standing up. After two years‘ use repairs are required. The editor of the Pemâ€" broke Observer had a <drive over some iof: the main highways of Carleton county, on roads conâ€" structed within the past two or three years, for the most partsof gravel, and whether from faulty construction or lack of maintenance, they are at the present time in a sadâ€"condition of reâ€" pait. (Even on some roads Built only last year a motor cannot now be driven at any speed with comfort. At twentyâ€"five miles an hour a car will take regular nose dives as it passes from ridge to ridge over‘the roughâ€"surface, and one is led to marvel at the folly which permits new roads to so quickly get into a condition of disrepair." Hon. George S. Henry. hasâ€"already paid a visit to that part of the province and will no doubt endeavor to improve road canditions. The extent of the wine industry in this provâ€" ince is shown in a receiat article in the Grimsby Independent. "Government statistics," says that paper, "show that 971,667 gallons of wine were made in OQntario in 1922; 517,605 gallons of this quantity were sold and the rest stored. The enâ€" try. that over 200,000. gallons of the amount were exported is an index of the fact that .Canadian wines are being appreciated without the borâ€" ders of. the Domimion. These figures are interâ€" preted in terms of grapes at the rate of 100 galâ€" lons of wine per ton of grapes. There were 40 organizations licensed to manufacture wine in Ontario, according to the newest count!. ~Of this number, some 12 were prominent concerns operâ€" ating plants of high capacity, by far the greatest praportion of the makers, certainly of the capital, being centred at St. Catharines and Beamsville." In one plant, that at _ Jordan, 600 tons of grapes and 350,000 pounds of sugar will be needed for this year‘s output. Sales in Quebec are quoted to show that the wine business in Ontario is not an artificial trade which will pass should prohiâ€" bition »be difted, as the Quebec Liquor Commisâ€" sion alone requires 1,200,000 gallons of wine for 1923. Little of this is supplied by the Niagara men, as they are working on highâ€"grade wines, which are beyond the taste of the wineâ€"drinking habitant. _â€" â€" _ _ . e Fdrtorial «*Be friends with everybody.. When you have ffiends, you know there is somebody who will stand by you. â€" Lead a life that will make you kindly and friendly to everyone about you, and you will be surprised at what a happy life you will lead. . "If I were asked to name the most important things that lead to a successful life," Charles M. Schwab is quoted in the Business Woman as saying;, "I shouldâ€"say, first of all was integrityâ€" unimpeachable integrity. No one can ever do anything of great value in life, and have the conâ€" fidence and approval of his fellow men, or be successful in his undertakings with other busiâ€" ness people, if he does not have the reputation of being a person of honor and integrity. This is the very foundation of a successful life. . Soâ€"called scenes from Western Life, now so familiar to patrons of the movies, are often characterized »asso far removed from the probable as to lose the interest that otherwise would be created. It is difficult to believe that there are still men of the Jesse James and Cole Younger type who ride into peaceful communiâ€" ties, "shoot up the town," rob the banks and commit murder when necessary to accomplish their purpose. But right in the centre of Toâ€" ronto, with its more than five hundred thousand population, in broad daylight, two car loads of murderous thieves, armed to the teeth, lie in wait for bank messengers returning from the clearing house with large sums of money, attack them without warning, discharging guns, first for the purpose of terrorizing their victims, and later, when the attack was returned, to put them out of action regardless of the sacrifice of life. This happened last week. Upwards of $80,000 in cash was stolen, three men are in the hospital recovering from their wounds, and the thieves have‘ not been apprehended. . That they will eventually be brought to justice there is no reaâ€" son to doubt. When they are, the sternest justice should be meted out. The man who deliberately discharges the contents of a gun into the body of a person a few feet away, is a murderer, whether his intended victim succumbs to his inâ€" juries or not.. There is only one punishment for murderers in Canada.,. That is hanging. That‘s what the man who shot the plucky Harris deâ€" serves. Much has been heard in recent years against the employment of "spotters" by. the Ontario Attorneyâ€"Generalâ€" in the effort at enforcement of the O.T.A. Detectives have always been employâ€" ed in this line of work. But the character of the men and the methods some of them have emâ€" ployed, deserve nothing but the severest censure. Respect for law cannot be developed by men and women of questionable character inducing young people to purchase or sell liquor, and when they have done ~so, bring action against them. Men entrusted with the enforcement of law, from the Attorneyâ€"General to the humblest official, should be men .of character, men in whom‘ the people have_.confidence. Such officals, in at least the majority‘ of cases, will act in a way to ensure the support of all good citizens. This .done, more effective work will be accomâ€" plished, andâ€"soon the public sentiment, without which no law can be made effective, will be deâ€" veloped.: We heard a short time ago that there were "bass bootleggers‘‘ in Windsor, :at Niagara Falls, and in interior towns as well, who are growing rich by making it possible for their minions to secure quantities of liquor, while they remain in the background and keep beyond the reach of the law. If there are such men, the honor and good name of the places where they make their headquarters demand that they be sought out and punished. If wholesalers are perâ€" mitted to.go free, little will be accomplished by prosecuting retailers. ~The government _ of Mr. Ferguson is pledged to enforce the present law so long as the people allow it to remain upon the statute sbooks. ~That it was not well enforced, the records of the province abundantly establish. It is, therefore, the duty .of W. E. Nickle, the new Attorneyâ€"General, to devise means that will have the support of all fairâ€"minded people. That he will do so we have every confidence. "Another important thing is loyalty. Be loyal, to the people with whom you associate at the start." Make your employer feel that you are sinâ€" cere with him; that you are going to promote his interests; that you are going to stand for the things he represents, and that will reap you a richer reward. Loyalty above all! SA person, toâ€"carry on a successful business, must have imagination. He must see things in a vision, a dream of the whole thing.. You can cultivate that faculty .only by an application of the finer things of life. , "These things secure opportunity. ‘That seâ€" cured, there comes the need of good judgment, which is one bf the prime requisites for enduring sucéess." The death of Dr. Rutherford deaves a vacancy in the Board of Railway Commissioners of Canâ€" ada. The position is an important one, and, naturally, attracts men of ability and wide exâ€" perience. It is a political appointment and will go to a supporter, of the present government, either a member or former member of, parliaâ€" ment,. A name already associated with the posiâ€" tion is that of Hon. Frank Oliver, for many years a,member of the House of.Commons, and for a time Sis Wilfrid Laurier‘s Minister of the Inâ€" terior. Heâ€"has had a long and varied experience, is upwards of 70 years of age, and has served his party in season and out of season, with a conâ€" sistency that usually brings reward.. His preâ€" ferment would be welcomed by the older generâ€" ation of Liberals, SCHWAB‘S RULES FOR SUCCESS THE TIMES AND GUIDPE, WESTON The Rev.
