TIMMINXN®, ONTARIO Members Canadian Weekly Newspaper Association: Ontarctoâ€" Quebee Newspaper Association; Class ‘A" Weekly Group OFFICE 26 PHONES â€"â€"â€" RESIDENCE 70 Published Every Monday and Thursday by: GEO. LAKE, Owner and Publisher Subscription Rates: A correspondent of The Advance recently reâ€" ferred with scorn to the idea that any foreign naâ€" tion sholld dare to interfere with Canada. Has that genueman read the report fronr Ottawa of the spee‘ch of Mr. Thos. Reid, M.P. for New Westâ€" minster, in the Canadian House of Commons? Acâ€" cording t5 Mr. Reid, the Japanese have already inâ€" vaded Canada using on the people of this country somewhag similar tactics to thost employed against the Chinese in China. Mr. Reid says that the Japahese in British Columbia have secured control O6f the fishing industry and are maintainâ€" control the fishing industry and are maintainâ€" ing and extending that control by methods that are highâ€"handed. Canadians have been assaultâ€" ed by th#iJapanese in British Columbia, Canadian motorboats have been deliberately wrecked, Canaâ€" dian nets have been cut, and generally Canadians have been shown that the Japanese are in control of Canadian fisheries in the British Columbia disâ€" trict. "The Japanese exercise dictatorial authorâ€" ity over codâ€"fishing, and have assumed absolute control of the mouth of the Fraser river," says Mr. Reid. The Ottawa Government has promised a full investigation and prompt action to remedy the situation, if it proves to be anything like what Mr. Reid has described it. This is by no means the first time there have been reports of improper conditions in the Pacific t province in regard to the Japanese. Some years; ago the attention of the government at Ottawai was directed to the matter, and the Ottawa auâ€"| thorities enacted legislation and regulations to asâ€". sure the control of the fishing industry remaining | in the hands of Canada. Permits to Japanese fishâ€" { ing monopolies were to be reduced each year over! a period of years. Unfortunately, however, noâ€"| thing was done to right conditions. Appz‘u‘entlyi after being roused to the seriousness of affairs,| the zovernment dropped off to sleep again. Inâ€"| stead of the Japanese being gently crowded out of | the fishing industry, they have apparently been | allowed increasing control, until toâ€"day it appears they have the boldness to uphold what they term their rights by strongâ€"arm methods. To the average thoughtful Canadian the situaâ€" tion in regard to fishing at the mouth of the Fraser | savours altogether too much of the position | in regard to matters some years ago in â€" Chinaga. | What guarantee is there that what happened in | China will not occur in Canada? It doeés not take : much imagination to conjure vp. cases of sturdy | Canadians refusing to stand by and see an indusâ€" . try stolen from them by foreigners in the lawless | manner described by Mr. Reid. The temptation to take the law into their own hands in their own country, just as the Japanese are doing in Canaâ€" da, might prove too much for sturdy Canadians, if the Canadian authorities continue to be lax and | heedless. The Chinese example ‘suggests what| will happen in such a case. The Japanese war maâ€" chine would be forward under the pretext of proâ€" tecting the subjects of Japan, and Japan would have all the excuse it needed for securing a further foothold in British Columbia. Anyone who thinks this to be farâ€"fetched or unlikely needs only to study the case of the Chinese.. 3 | The Canadian government should take very prompt and effective steps in regard to the matlâ€" ter. It will take little time or investigation to prove the truth of the charges made by Mr. Reid. As soon as the basis for the charges is made plain, the government should meoye speedily and effectâ€"| ively not only to remove any present abuses but | also to prevent the possibility of any of this sort | of Japanese invasion in time to come. If the Japâ€" i anese have been given any form of permit or conâ€" : tract in the matter, this should be rescinded. Hon.| Mr. Hepburn has given strikin@example of ‘the fact that government contracts or agreements are by no means sacred. While the example Of the | Ontario premier may not be one to emulate in this particular, the Japanese case is a different matter.| If the charges made are substantiatedâ€"and there E has been no approach to denial so farâ€"then the l action of the Japanese monopolists has automaticâ€" ‘ | | | n > mm ue tm ally abrogated the contracts. The existing conâ€"| tracts should be cancelled and no more permits isâ€" | sued to the Japanese, unless it can be shown that : the spirit, as well as the letter, of Canadian law has |. been observed. him? asks t to that que that made 1 he felt that would have take it allâ€" onerous desg out due pro has no brie fairness it whether or men to osity on themselves that newsp financial p« vent them taxation m rememberi] ment and | Britain son Britain‘s W humour, y€ taxation r them with pendituresâ€" hardship. whether in created em contributio be at least Unless this Already all enterprises sent metho da cannot osity after | the idea of it might be ‘ this idea m mention fa ber that w man, it is n gling prosp terness as number wh prospector the rich im GRAVE It may b lieve in sig lot of com: | | there are 1 these soâ€"c gvain with one f Friday the Friday, Ma one Friday admit that other recel previous y« The joker then continued NIS sSupj fun by sending the fire brigade, a ta an undertaker, in turn, to the unoffé The family so persecuted could not could possibly have played these upon them.

The fact that newspapermen are most unlikely to be in the financial position of Harry Oakes should not preâ€" vent them considering the possibility that undue taxation may defeat its own purpose.
