Vorrupines Advanero TIMMINKXS, ONTARIO Members Canadian Weekly Newspaper Assoclation; Onmblario Quebss Newspaper Association; Class "A" Woeekliy Group OFPFICE 26â€"â€"â€"â€"â€"PHONESâ€"â€"â€"â€"â€"RES8IDENCE 70 Published Every Monday and Thaorsday by: GEO LAKE, Owner and Publisher Subscription Rales: Per Year It is a commentary on the peculiar times that the people accept the situation in Quebec with so little excitement. These days the people are so used to the unusual that they appear to be little perturbed over matters that in another age would be considered astounding. Under ordinry cirâ€" cumstances and in ordinary times few would be ready to credit the idea that the people of the province of Quebec should suddenly decide to forâ€" sake the Liberal party which for nearly forty years has held the reins of power in the province withâ€" out interruption. As a matter of fact the decision is not a sudden one, nor is the province forsaking the Liberal party. For some time past there has been open dissatisfaction in Quebec province in regard to governmental attitude and actions. At the election in the province last November this dissatisfaction was made amply evident. The government was returned to power but by ‘a very scant majority. <Out of 90 seats the government had 48, while the total in opposition was 42. Out of the 42, however, only 16 were straight Conservaâ€" tives, the remainder being members of a new Liberal party formed as a protest against evils that it was felt had grown around the government in office. This seems like an answer to those who suggest that Quebec is forsaking the Liberal party. It appears to be a case rather where the Liberal party seems to have forsaken the people of Quebec. The twentyâ€"six Independent Liberals have coâ€" operated with Mr. Maurice Duplessis and his Conâ€" servative followers, and the record suggests that this was the patriotic thing to do. It has resulted in such exposures that Hon. Mr. Taschereau, preâ€" mier of Quebec for sixteen years, has felt conâ€" strained to resign. Hon. Mr. Taschereau has serv-l ed his province with much ability and leaves office| with no personal stain on his character. But reâ€" velations have been made of such a nature that the retiring premier had nothing other to do than to resign in a British province. The chief exposâ€" ure was that the premier‘s own brother had drawn interest on government funds, profiting to the exâ€" "Tent of some $15,000 in this way. The premier‘s nephew was manager of the bank in which governâ€" ? ‘ment funds were deposited so that interest might ‘be credited to the premier‘s brother,.an accountant for the government. The people of Quebec conâ€" sider it no excuse to say that the government lost nothing in the transaction. It seems sufficient ‘that the government permitted a form Oof proâ€" fiteering that is against all Canadian ideas of what is right and fair. Perhaps, the attitude of the people of Quebec is shown by the fact that at a recent meeting in Montreal attended by fully 10,â€" 000 people, every mention of the name of Premier Taschereau, once so popular with all classes, was jeered, while cheers greeted each reference to the opposition. In an attempt to save the situation for the presâ€" ent government in Quebec province, Hon. Mr. Godâ€" bout, former minister of agriculture has been selected as the new premier, the first farmer to hold that office in Quebec. A new election is to be held on August 15th. It is hoped by some of the oldâ€"time Liberals that the independents will line up behind the reâ€"organized government. On the other hand, there is the chance that at the coming election, the people of Quebec will comâ€" plete what they appear to have started at the elecâ€" tion last November and sweep the present governâ€" ment from office. Timmins, Ont., Monday, June 15th, 1936 Annual Grdduation St. Mary‘s Hospital snap judgments made by some here, but they made their estimates without full comprehension, of the situation. As a matter of fact it takes â€"the people of Quebec themselves to make any compreâ€" hensive survey of the probabilities. A Timmins pioneer who was born in Quebec gave The Advance Being near neighbours to Quebec, the people of the North are taking a keen but kindly and sympaâ€" thetic interest in the political situation in the proâ€" vince next door.

There are a number of matters of importance to the movement that will be up for discussion and a good attenâ€" dance has been requested. Bomnmiâ€"to Mr. and Mrs. Alphonse Boudreau, 59 Avenue road, on June 8th SOLL an outline of what was likely to happen at the last provincial election in Quebec and also what would probably occur afterwards. His summary has proved to be so accurate in all particulars that it would appear that he might claim foreknowledge of events. Instead, all he claims is that he knows Quebec and its people. This gentleman now foreâ€" tells that the present government will be wiped out completely, and in its place will be an administraâ€" tion representative of progressive Liberalism with the support of the Conservative element, but with the latter not in the ascendant. From â€"Moscow â€"comes news that Russia plans to adopt a democratic form of government â€""government of the people, by the people, for the people." The announcement is a virtual adâ€" mission that recently Russia has been ruled by czars as in past years, though the line has been ; changed and the Soviet has not kept exactly to one czar at a time. Under the Romanofis forms] of selfâ€"government were offered the people on| more than one occasion. The response Oof thei people in each of these cases was in the form of| some sort of outrage or assassation that appearcd? to prove the people wholly unready for the proâ€"| mised democratic form of government. It is to be hoped that the Soviet czars play in better luck.| The present czar government in Russia is from | the German pattern of Karl Marx. The now announced by Russia seems to be along Britâ€"| ish lines. Russia is to have two elected houses of‘ parliament. There is to be a secret ballot for voting. The press is to be free and there is to be equal measure of free speech. Under the pro-! posed system classes would really be eliminated for governmental purposes, and there would be equal rights for alls. At present Russia is the most classâ€"ridden country in the world. Under the new system of parliamentary government, Russia would have the means as well as the opportunity to become a nation of benefit to itself and of value to the world. In its promise to inaugurate real selfâ€"government, Russia will have the sympathetic interest of all peoples and the best wishes of all who hope for the progress of mankind. Mayor Bartleman is quoted as saying that beâ€" fore the Centralâ€"Publicâ€"Schoolâ€"Town Hall Cockâ€" tail is forced on the people, the voters will be given opportunity to vote upon it. The people have already voted on the matter of the town hall, but their opinion has been flouted. Their next vote will be to see that their expressed opinion on town halls and other matters is not made a footâ€" ball for the sport of others. The visit of the members of the Legislature to the North should have been before, not after, the allocation of funds for roads for the North. The people of Timmins are urged to watch the news and the signs of the times these days and prepare to fight any effort to impose upon this town any form of racket or gangster rule. There is suggestion these days for a big merge! , of pulp and paper companies in Canada. Such a} proposal should be very carefully considered beâ€"| fore any action is taken along this line. The pro-i posed new merger is said to contemplate taking in | the Abitibi Power Paper Co. It is not easy to forget the last big merger in which the Abitibil Power Paper Co. was concerned. Previous to | the merger the Abitibi was a prosperous and | progressive concern; Iroquois Falls was one of the| most prosperous towns in the North. ‘There are evidences of a possible revival of Iroquois Falls and the Abitibi Power Paper Co. It would be well to be sure that the Abitibi will not be prejudicedl in its revival as it was in the last case of merger. ! Again St. Mary‘s hospital grounds provide A spot of genuine beauty and charm. It seems A pity that this beauty spot should be marred by the unsightly collection of papers and rubbish alâ€" lowed to drift along the sidewalk on Pine street from the post office corner. The post office corâ€" ner is usually a dirty and disorderly place with dust and papers blowing around. The town might well spend an occasional dollar to remedy this unâ€" sightliness.
