The trophy will soon be on display in Wallace’s store. Owing to the faet that the P. R. & ¥.

He holds leases on 714 claims or 211,000 acres, situated 200 miles northwest of Edmonton, between the main line of the G. T.

It is the humilia- tion that wounds her proud sen- sitive people, and a nation that has newly won her place in the world feels acutely that her sac- rifices and struggles have not yet achieved for her all the re- cognition which is now due. It is anticipated here that if California persists in her alien land legislation the Japanese Government will be forced by popular clamour to demand nat- uralization and other rights for Japanese on the same footing as white immigrants.

Japan CALGARY’S BLUNDER IS MUCH DISCUSSED Sold Debenture Bonds in New York at Less Price than Could Mave Been Had London, April 23—-The follow- ing have been listed here today: City of Calgary £139,000 4% per cents.; Rio Tramway £53,000 5 per cents; Shawinigan Power $1,000,000 worth of shares, and Vancouver Power £50,000 4% per cents. The unfortunate concerning the Calgary bills is much diseussed. The Bank of Montreal, being the finamcial ag- ents for the city under contract until 1916, reeently placed here two and a half million dollars in bonds and almost simultaneous- ly the city placed another two and a half millions with a New York house which sold them to a London house of high standing on terms less favorable to the city than the Bank of Montreal terms, the Bank of Montreal never having been asked if it could take more, consequently the city has now withdrawn the New York portion. The Times says the blunder has necessarily contretemps caused a great deal of inconven- ience any annoyance to all con- cerned. POLICE COURT CASES Charge of Selling Liquor With- out License Adjourned till Monday Fred Cyr, a resident of the dis- trict adjoining Comox Avenue, appeared before Magistrate Carss this morning to answer to a charge of selling liquor with- out a license.

Reports from the hospita: to- (day indicate that the men injur- ed by the explosion of the deep fishing boat, G. R.

He said they must remain peaceful despite local |disturbances and he expressed absolute confidence that Ameri- can citizens, both official and un- official, weuld demand that no discrimination be made and that matters be arranged in a spirit of fairness. He entirely dis- approved of any exhibition of temper or unseemly agitation. Mrs. Geo. Little of Terrace re- turned this morning on the Prince Rupert after accompany- ing her mother, Mrs. A. R. Cun- ningham, to her home in Spo- kane, Wash. Mrs. Little left on the ten o'clock train for her home in Terrace.
