When at long last, a couple of years ago, the Hydro Elecâ€" se Commission did indirectly enter the Northern field, through its contract with the subsidiary of the Abitibi Power Paper Co., there was general regret that the connection wad not been more direct. It is felt now, however, that the will show poor vision if it allows the Abitibi CÂ¥xpyon power development to drop or be unduly retarded. T®e dlifficulties of the Ontario Power Service Corporation, engaged for the past two years in developing the power at Atbsitibi Canyon, give an opportunity to the Hydro Comâ€" wwission to enter the Northern field to the general advanâ€" #tage. The general feeling is that the Government should take wwer the Abitibi power project and carry it to successful comâ€" alietion. It will prove paying venture from the standpoint wlike of the province and the North. Of course, the terms which the project should be acquired should be fair equitable to all concerned. The province should not pay sar the water in the stock of the company, if there be any wast water, but only for the value of the project as a means #m sirpplying electric power. On the one hand, the province ## n position to practically dictate its own terms, while on eme «ther hand, advantage should not be taken of this to injure or defraud the people who had faith and wsision to finance. the project. 1t will not be long before there will be demand for the ~wworer that will. be made available by the Abitibi Canyon «gower development. The turn, indeed, may come by the #irm» the work is completed. In any Case, there appears to "be anly the two fair alternatives. The one is to allow the «wBole project to drop, with consequent unemployment and xz io the public, and thus show lack of the faith in the *wtrre of the North and its industries. The other is for the wrovince to take over the project as a public venture. The agea of the province directly or indirectly guaranteeing the bonds of the power concern Of otherwise assistâ€" ing the private corporation to proceed would surely be unâ€" easinable, while the province refuses to guarantee even the dgdebentures of municipalities. Surely it is not 100 to say that the people, not only of the North, but of a) QOuntario, will demand that the Government show its faith > the North Land by the direct acquisition of the Abitibi Camyan power project and its completion for the advantage? «»xÂ¥ the North and the South alike. % Paper Co., there was gel ma«d not been more direct. will show poo CÂ¥xpyon power development T®e difficulties of the Ont »â€"ngageqd for the past two 3 Atstibi Canyon, give an 0 mvissian to enter the North ‘EMPLOYMENT THE ONLY RELIEF movmetr a«iso means that vkilops oY seli and 111 gort busine mothing w! cept that 1 Ehe Yorcupitne Advarcr he still exists, and it swerage Canadian Wi foewves down the whi ioi mothing whatever is accomplished for goed or progress, exâ€" cept that the hungry man is kept from starvation.

So sing The Cochrane Northland Post and The Kapusâ€" kascing Northern Tribune in a touching duet entitled, ‘"We Love the Lots of Moosonee a Lot." The Post has a dulcet baritcne, though a little oil would help that barrow. And The Northern Tribune has a buxom bassâ€"very much so. This year, not many days ago, not more indeed, than a summer or two ago, these two papers were alt daggers drawn, at loggerheads, at each other‘s throats, or whatâ€"haveâ€"you! There was no vocal duet then. The Ottawa Journal would say that they were reâ€"violin each other. It was really as bad as that. All this may seem like a mixâ€"up of metaphors, but it is nothing to the mixâ€"up when the Cochrane newsâ€" paper enquired into the antecedents of the Kapuskasing editor and the Kapuskasing newspaper spoke tritely of the ultimate destination of the editor at Cochrane. And now on account of Moosonee, these two newspapers would ‘bury the hatchet. The trouble is that they are atâ€" tempting to bury it in the heart of The Advance, which may the fates forbid. The Advance has yet to see a newsâ€" mnaner that was coanfortable with hatchets buried in its inâ€" editor ar ultimate And n would ‘bi tual d demnation ol tie 1. to the sale of lots by pj they automatically and taneousiy, impute tmtrpt disagree with them?

Moosonee is building up. A geutleman who was there last week commented on this fact. Reports from North Bay suggest that the sale of lots continues and the commission is confident that all is well. Those who bid at the auction sale were outbid by the T. N. O. Commission, That is an easy way of putting it. The Advance is unable to work itself into a frenzy about i.

The death toll by drowning during the summer months in Ontario is lamentable and in many instances these would be averted if youngsters were trained to swim. This should be one of the primary objects of all boys‘ organizations and time devoted to this end by the leaders of the Scouts, Tuxis Boys and Trail Rangers in Walkerton would be well spent."
