THE APOSTLE OF FAIR PLAY. When an alderman rises to his feet in a mood of great agitation to demand fair play in the shape of a 8100 cheque for a discharged employee of the city; when the same alder- man takes the floor again a few minutes later defend those enterprising citizens who have installed private sewage pipes against the oppression of supposedly unjust taxation, we are expected, of course, to sit on a back seat, fold our arms and regard his magnani- mous spirit with admiration. But, having a grain or two of common sense in our: heads, we decline to do anything of the sort. Promiscuous hero worship is a bad thing in busi- ness and we will not allow it to blind our eyes to the fact that Alderman Bullock - Webster és supposed to be a champion of the city’s interests, and not a holder of briefs for every Tom, Dick and Harry who may imagine that he has some shadow of a grievance against the municipality. We will second Alderman Bullock- to agi Thursday, June 19, 1913. NORTHERN BRITISH COLUMBIA Mexico: Weekly, Daily, $8.00 per year. United States and Contract OFFICE Bureau, 219 Bast 23rd St., New Syndicate, Grand Trunk Building, fair play when he applies it not only to the case of the private individual, but also to that of the mass of ratepayers of Prince Rupert. When moved by the very laudable spirit of generosity to make doles out of the public purse, alderthen would do well to remember that the public, too. has its feelings and that its pufse is not bot- tomless, except in the sense that just now it has a hole in it, a hole which it will take oru best management to repair. —_——_—_—().

The decision of the Imper- ial Privy Council that all court’ must be publie is regarded as wise in the abstract, but not suited to this, that, or the other court.

Canadian Typewriter Exchange, Dept. 15, 543 Hastings W., Vancouver, B.C. ists TO DROP 14 to weeks London, June of the most recent British As quith, upon Mr. Bonar Law's de mand, has allotted two days for the debate on the Marconi scan- dal and the whole nation on the alert. By a strict party vote, the coalition majority on the Marconi committee has declared that Sir Rufus Isaacs, Mr. David Lioyd-George and Lord Murray of Elibank, in buying shares in the American Marconi Company, have done nothing reflecting on their honor. In other words, the committee's report completely vindicates the ministers The London Star, one of ministerial dailies, declares this report “must end the paign of vile slander set afoot in the hope of crippling Lloyd- George's anti-landlord campaign and destroving home rule and Welsh disestablishment. Another min sterial journal, the Daily Chronicle, however, warns the chancellor of the exchequer and the attorney general that it would be unwise to assume that nothing regrettable has hap- pened, adding: “The house resents the lack of candor shown by the ministers last October next week be flery expects one in politics.
