Enquire today THE ‘"While the Town Council was in session Monday night, Mayor Taylor was called to the telephone by Dan Mcnney of Mattawa, who asked the Council to pass a resolution urging the Ontario Government to construct thirtyâ€"five miles of road from Mattawa to Temiskaming Mr. Mooney stated that if such a road were constructed it would be used by all the people in the Rouyn mining area, who would then come down the Ottawa Valley. Members were of the opinion that the proposed road was in the province of Quebec and no action was taken pendâ€" ing receipt of further information from Mattawa. Coun. Fo.‘is, who is familiar with that country stated that it was rough and it would cost a great deal of money to build a road for motor vehicles." Last week the Pembroke town council was asked to endorse application to the authorities for the building of a road from Temiskaming to Mattawa. The building of such a road the Pemâ€" broke council was told, would connect Temiskaming area with the Ottawa Valley in very effective way. It was urged that sutch a road would connec. up the Rouyn mining district and the Ottawa Valley and so would be of very special importance. The Pemâ€" broke town council asked for further particulars and more information beâ€" fore committing themselves in any way in the matter. This is the wise proceâ€" dure in such a case, and when the Pembroke council has all the facts their endorsation will be considered all the more effective and noteworthy, if they consider the proposition worthy after receiving all the facts. In referrâ€" ing to the request to the Pembroke town council last week The Pembroke Standardâ€"Observer savs:â€" wWANT TEMISKAMING AND OTTAWA VALLEY CONNECTED some vehicles of its day. qAnddwyhavecon tinued to recognizeâ€"that Chrysler engiâ€" neerimg has not only brilliantly maintained that lead but has actually widened its marâ€" gin of superiority. 4 Add to this superiority ofpaformance, that origimal style and beauty all Chrysler‘s own, at prices hundreds of dollars under other cars which are compared with Chrysler. Then you will find it easy to understand the universal demand for Chrysler. In publishing the above The Advance would add that no one should show sympathy with these evil agitators and no quarter or consideration should be given these alien agitators who openly have boasted that their purpose is to overthrow the religion and the form of government of this country. In a word, their theory as expounded, is to the effect that Russia toâ€"day has the one and only perfect system of life and government and that all other countries should adopt the same attiâ€" tude towards life and administration. Just why these communists do not move to Russia and stay there where they pretend conditions are so much to their All of which we respectfully submit: Ivan E. Kennedy, W. H. Dawson, J. C Bonnett, S. T. Smith. We recommend that pressure be brought to bear upon the Government of the Province, that action may be taken so that the leaders of this perâ€" nicious movement may be brought to justice and deported; And further we recommend that the Government be asked to enact legislaâ€" tion compelling all foreign newspapers and periodicals to be printed in Engâ€" lish as well as the language of the peopie for whom the paper is edited. And whereas we have reason to beâ€" lieve that this mischievous teaching is being propagated by agitators who forâ€" merly were rebel leaders in the recent civil war in Finland, and further we have reason to believe that money is being provided for the propoganda from the Soviet in Russia: And whereas they are actively teachâ€" ing and propogating their doctrines of atheism and disloyaity in schools and by means of public meetings, etc., in their halls; Whereas the Communistic organizaâ€" tions among the foreigners especially the Finns, working under many elusive namesâ€"Workers‘ Union, Independent Workers, etc..â€" have been openly breaking the law of the land and makâ€" ing themselves very objectionable by their threatening and intimidating atâ€" titude toward Christian imissionaries and ministers labouring among their fellowâ€"countryimen, and also toward those who attend the services of the Christian Church: At the annual County Meeting of Temiskaming North LO.L. C. 111, held at Timmins, February 12th, 1929, it was resolved to appoint a committee to draft a resolution to be forwarded to the Grand Lodge of Ontahrio West regarding the action of the Communâ€" istic party in the District. The followâ€" ing is the resolution as drafted:â€" The Advance has been asked to pubâ€" the following as of interest and has miuch pleasure n doing so, believing the matter to be one of great imporâ€" tance to this country. The Advance beâ€" lieves that the LO.L. has the right id>a in the matter, and that the Governâ€" ment should at once take steps to stop the foolish and evil activities of the soâ€"called ‘"Reds" who are making a nuisance and a curse of themselves:â€" Resolution Calls for Stamping Out of Evil Teaching of Atheism and Disloyalty by Aliens. L.0.L. URGES GOVERNMENT 10 GURB GOMMUNIST AGTIVITY THE PORCUPINE ADVANCE, TIMMINS, ONTARIO New York Evening Post:â€"There are times when we question the pronounceâ€" ments of the learned, but one of the things we have decided not to prove for ourself is the recent statement of a prominent naturalist YKhat lions are nexrâ€"sighted. The matter of the menace of wolves in Ontario to the deer of the province is to be taken up again in the Legiglaâ€" ture. Word from Toronto some days ago said that wolves had killed more deer during the present winter than ever before in the history of Ontario, and are increasing at a rate that is alarming, according to members of the Ontario legislature. Information will be given showing that 6,000 wolves were killed last year. This is a few hundred more than the provious record but is not the same percentage of an ncrease in the number of wolves being killed as it is in number of wolves inâ€" creasing. T. Legault, Liberal member for Sturgeon Falls, is again going to offer his service in an attempt to wipe out wolves in Ontario by offering a prize of $10,000 to the hunter killing the largest number of wolves during the next year, if the government will give him an additional bounty of $5 a wolf killed. wWOLVES TOOK HUGE TOLL OF DEER IN ONTARIO IN 1928 Theres only one q?‘ality 0 MAGIC BAKING POWDER and that‘s the highest Made in Canada E.W. GILLETT CO,. LTD. TORONTO,CAN. The Freight Race was inaugurated in 1922 and has attained great popularity. In 1922 the winner was Mr. H. Darling. Mr. J. Clifford‘s team won the 1923 event. The 1924 winner was Mr. L. Reid, and Mr. Phlios Bouvereau was the 1925 winner. The 1926 freight race was won by Fountain, of Ansonâ€" ville, his time being 24 minutes, 7 secâ€" onds. Boudreau was nine seconds slower for seccond place and Bissonett: a close third. Last year there were 14 entries for the freight race. In recent years the freight race has usually managed to attract more entries than the main speed race. The winners of the freight race last year were as foliâ€" lows:â€"lst, H. Veino, 18 minutes; 2nd Geo. Churney, 19 minutes, 45 seconds, ard, W. Torangeau, 21 minutes, 30 secs. March 10th, 1928â€"S. Pancoff, 1 hour, 14 minutes, 25 seconds. Second, D.

The interest in the Porcupine Dog Race and Carnival,. scheduled to be held at Timmins on Wednesday of next week, March 6th, is very great and for this reason many will like to review the dates, entries, and the winners in previous events. This is the fourâ€" teenth year that the Porcupine Dog Race and Carnival has been announcâ€" ed as an annual event. Every year there has been discussion about the date. This year is no exception to this rule. There are at present many who think that March 6th is too far adâ€" vanced a time for the race. Many think that February should always see the race run, while some others favour even as early a date as January. In 1927 the date was set for March 16th, but the weather broke and it was not possible to run the race without danger of abuse to the dogs. Those with dogs that they valued did not want to have the race. As a result of the weather, 1927 was the only year since the incepâ€" tion of the feature in 1916 that the event was not proceeded with. On the other hand the very first race was held 28 minutes, 19 seconds Wallingford, 1 hour, seconds. 8 entries. as late as March 25th. It was postâ€" poned from earlier dates for one cause or another and eventually was proceedâ€" ed with on March 25th, when it was deâ€" cided that no year should thereafter be allowed to pass without the Porcuâ€" pine Dog Race. In 1921 the nig race was held on March 16th and proved very pleasing and successful on that date. A glance at the list below will indicate that only in one yearâ€"19193â€" has the race been held in February. It is true that the climate and condiâ€" tions appear to be changing in this country, and the general opinion is that it would be well to arrange to have the Porcupine Dog Race in Febâ€" ruary each year. While all the various years have seen success attained by the event, there is the general feeling that success would be easier to attain and more assured if a Fbruary date were usually selected. The dates, winners, times made, and number of entries for each year‘s race are as follows:â€" March 25th, 1916â€"Joe Brisson, w nâ€" ner;~ 1 hour, 32 minutes, 37 seconds, Second, L. S. Newton, 1 hour, 34 minâ€" utes, 51 seconds. 9 entries. Fourteenth Annual Dog Race Scheduled to be Held at Timmins on Wedâ€" nesday, March 6th, 1929 DATES, ENTRIES AND WINNERS IN PREVIOUS DOG RAGES HERE l The Premier pointed out that if the waterways were developed jointly 1y the United States and Canada, as ha | been suggésted, and the United State given control of part of the canal sysâ€" Item it might result in Canada being | deprived of the right to use the canals ! in the event of war between the United | States and any other power. Work of the Ontario Air Service in forest fire prevention and detection came in for well merited approval in the Legislature during the debate in reply to the Speech from the Throne. It was pointed out that during the year 1928 the serviee had made 4,130 flights without the loss of a single life and carried, during their prevention work. a total load of 4,258,584 pounds. Effiâ€" ciency of the service had been rated at 95.2 per cent. on the year‘s qperations. Canada Should Retain Sovereignty of Waters "Everyone knows where I stand on the question of deepening and widenâ€" ing the St. Lawrence," stated the Preâ€" mier, "We should not allow any counâ€" try to have control of any part of the sovereignty of this country. We have sovereignty over our canal system now. Let us retain it." The Premier‘s pronouncement followâ€" ed the suggestion from Progressive benches that he had not declared his position on the issue. The consolidation will be known as the White Lake Extension syndicate, and it is the intention of the officers to go ahead with development work on the surface early in the spring. At the present time it is not the intention of the syndicate to make a public offerâ€" ing of their units, as sufficient funds will be raised privately by the syndicate members for the proving up of the White Lake veins and others known to exist on the property of the syndicate. Principals of the consolidation are: W. G. H. Chisholm, of London, secreâ€" taryâ€"treasurer, and Dr. J. A. McInnis. of Timmins, president. MADE 4,130 FLIGHTS AND DID NOT LOSE A SINGLE LF» Sovereignty of Canada over all terriâ€" tory within her borders should not be jeopardized, Premier Ferguson informâ€" ed the Legislature this week in again declaring his stand on the deep waterâ€" ways question and the development of the St. Lawrence River. The Mail and Empire says:â€"The consolidation of several groups of minâ€" ing claims in the Mississauga Forest reserve is arousing considerable interest locally on account of Timmins men being concerned in what is considered as an enterprising undertaking. The groups concerned are the Chisâ€" holm, McGee, Korick, Miller, Mclanis and Letillier groups of claims situated in township 1 A. Mississauga reserve and are of much interest, as they surâ€" round on three sides White Lake mines, operated by the Marcus Daly interests of New York.
