Canada can afford to take no more chances. The people are certain of that. Unless the Governments ‘‘play the game‘‘ now, they will eventually ‘be forced by popular demand to measâ€" ures more severe and drastic. Practic ally all the Governments need to do now to satisfy the ordinary citizen 18 to give full support and assistanceâ€"to‘ the local authorities in dealing with! !thc alien enemy problem. _ If they | continue to neglect this eoâ€"@peration | they will be foreed farther in the end, | but in the meantime the country will \be the loser and the sufferer. One of the latest evidences of the Governmental juggling with the liquor question is given by the suggestion that a liquor vendor‘s license be given at North Bay or Sudbury. The Mayor of North Bay has made strenuous ol} jection to tlus proposal of the Governâ€" ment. He says that no such license is either necessary or desirable, and he has asked Sudbury Couneil to coâ€" operate in opposing the establishment of any such liquor sales room in the North Land. Sudbury has taken no action, the Councillors so far differing in their opinions. a 0 h T I The liquor â€" question undoubtedly presents many difficulties, but if the Afacts were honestly faced and courage ously dealt with the way would hbe casier.

Why not, then, have the Governments take over boldly the whole manufactâ€" ure, sale and distribution of liquor. Absolute Governmental control and responsibility would do away with most of the evils of the traffic, if Govâ€" etnnents were honest, decent and sinâ€" coere. â€" Private profit has always been the chief souree of evil in the liquor tralite.

There was variety about the cases brought by Chief Wilson before Maâ€"| cistrate Atkinson on Thursday last,| and the town netted about $400 from the proceedings. _ Mitro Silken, an Austrian, had permission to go to Otâ€" tawa from Welland, but instead he came to Timmins, where Chief Wilson found that he knew all right that he was not observing the law but was mrcless to say the least. . To impress on the Austrians that they must obâ€" serve the essy law in â€" their behalf, ’.\I:lgistmf(' Atkinson fined Mitro $25 and costs. Of course, he had the monâ€" ey to pay. â€" Oficer Sally arrested Pete Shumovt on a charge of not being useâ€" fully employed. Pete told the court he was not well, but had not bothered with doetors as they were all butchers. ‘$100 and eosts, or six month in said Magistrate Atkinson. * IT‘l go to jail, 1 don‘t care, *‘ said Pete. Later, however, he changed his mind and paid the fine. Still, however, he is in jail again, being picked up Saturâ€" ‘day night by Officer Allen on a charge of highâ€"graqding. _ Pete also had a quantity of anarchisticâ€"appearing liter ature with him and seems to be dne of the active spirits of the local Bolsheâ€" viki. Before he is through Pete will likely regret that he nad not worked | honestly and loyvally and not talked so ‘| Bolshevikily. e 1 N)i) 14X V RERE®LTO® The Chinese assault case was withâ€" drawn by the parties concerned, the affair being apparently settled among themselves.

V LA * Farmer John Chow found he had no police court case against the owners of the dogs that killed 24 of his fowl. ‘The offence occurred in Mountjoy, which being an unorganized tlownship has no byâ€"law against dogs running at large, so there was no byâ€"law to proseâ€" cute under in the police court. _ The Magistrate pointed out, however, that he eould enter a division court stt for the damages done. This latter did not prove necessary, as it is underâ€" stood that the owners of the aogs setâ€" =a NeR B ME K Constable Sally â€" charged Tommy Nelson and James Fletcher with being drunk and disorderly on July _ 1st Nelson was fined $20 ‘and costs. Fletâ€" cher did rot appear, S0 his bail was estreated. â€" Later Constable Sally went after him with the warrant isâ€" sued. A trip through terrible mud up the river to Fletcher‘s shack failed to. locate the man, but eventualy Conâ€" stable Sally secured Fletcher in town and took him to South Poreupine where Magistrate Atkinson fined him $10 and costs. The whole affair of lost ‘bail, fine and extra costs, amountâ€" ed to over $50. Chief Wilson‘s chargée against Joe Perier of being intoxicated resulted in la fine of $20 and costs for the accused. Constable MeTanis charged E. Boliâ€" var with being intoxicated in a publu place. The fine was $10 and ceosts.

Also, a Bulgarian will be chargâ€" ed with running a car without the necessary 1918 license number. . In the meantime, Chief Wilson has im pounded the car. ' The charge against H. LeBarre, game warden, for carrying a revolver, was: dismissed and the accused acquitted of any wrongâ€"doing in this connection. The gun was also returned to him with the suggestion that it would be as well not to carry it in town as he had been doingon some occasions. The Magisâ€" trate did not find anything in the game laws specifically forbiding wardens to carry firearms and he realized how the defendant could believe he had a right h 4 4 T. Th to arm himself. _ Chief Wilson had not received a reply from his enquiry to the Department regarding the matâ€" ter, so the case was allowed to drop withoutâ€" further adjournment.
