It seems apparent that the Dominion Governâ€" meont has roused righteous resentment in the North by its ignoring of this important area in the matter of the royal tour. In view of the protests showered on it from its own friends, the Governâ€" ment must be very stupid indecd, and still more foolishly obstinate, if it does not realize that a serious mistake was made in refusing to follow the usual practice in such cases by having the western trip by one route and the castern by the other. This mistake may be rectified now, howâ€" ever, without any loss of dignity to the Governâ€" ment. The Long Lac washout, if a fact, can be used as an excuse for adopting the route that should have been announced in the first place. If the Nakina to Hearst line is in any way unsafe, it should be repaired at once, irrespective of the It would appear that there should be immediate and thorough investigation into the whole quesâ€" tion. If .The Northern. Tribune is Wrongly inâ€" formed and there is no more washout on the Long Lac line than the daily newspapers by their silence would suggest, then the facts should be made plain. If the Nakina to Hearst line is unsafe for travel, it would be well, indeed, to have the public assured that it is not being used for heavy traffic that normally passes over the Long Lac line. There is, however, a fairly general opinion that the Nakina to Hearst section of the C.N.R. is not really unsafeâ€"that it could easily be put in firstâ€"class condition if the railway really wished to do so and employed its full resources to that purâ€" pose. The belief is that the talk about the line being unsafe was simply an excuse for improper political trickery that punished the North for the alleged sins of its premier. a true picture of the situation. Taking that for granted, the matter certainly needs consideration {rom many angles. In the first place, it was stated on government authority that the line from Naâ€" kina to Hearst was not safe for heavy traffic, and this was the reason the royal train was routed by the Long Lac cutâ€"off. Yet toâ€"day the heavy trafâ€" fic of Canadian National trains from Winnipeg is being routed over this allegedly unsafe line. _ If the line is safe enough for the traffic now using it, surely concentration on repair work in the next week or two would make it fully safe for the pasâ€" sage of the royal train. Instead of this, however, The Northern Tribune suspects that the Long Lac washout will be made the excuse for routing the eastern trip of the royal train by the C.P.R., so that the..whole affair will be a C.P.R. mattér. People im‘ general who are being crushed with taxation f‘to'fiminmin the Canadian Government Railway will have full cause to wonder why the Govornmeht-owned railway cannot handle even a minor paft of the transportation of the King and Queen across Canada. The Northern Tribune is one of the most thoughtful and earnest of the newspapers of the North. ~It is not easy to believe that it would make the statements contained in the editorial without having the facts fully before it. The popular opinâ€" jon will be that The Northern Tribune is presenting In its editorial article The Northern Tribune does not forget to call attention to the fact that the daily newspapers have made little mention of he Long Lac washout. If the facts are as The Tribune states them, then certainly the newsâ€" papers have missed featuring an item of yvery imâ€" portant news. An editarial in The Northern Tribune, of Kapusâ€" kasing, calls for the most thorough engquiry and investigation, with suitable action to follow the establishment of the facts of the case. The Norâ€" thern Tribune asserts that there has been a seriâ€" ous washout on the former Canadian National Railway line running between Nakina and Sudâ€" buryâ€"the line over which the royal train was routed to pass after the government had decided to ignore this part of the North. The Northern Tribuné says that as a consequence of the washâ€" out of the track near Long Lac Canadian National trains from Winnipeg have been travclling fo1 several days over the line from Nakina to Hearst, Kapuskasing, Cochrane, and over the T. N. Q. to Worth Bay. The Northern Tribune after a study of the situation suggests that it seecms imâ€" probable that the Long Lac line can be made safe in time to accommodate the royal train. ‘"Due to the abnormally high water in Northern watcr:s this year, which, from present indications will stay at its present record level or even go higher for some time yet, the probabilities would seem to be that the repair job cannot be completed very soon," says The Northern Tribune. _ The water that now lies over the tracks will keep them subâ€" merged for a while, The Northern Tribunec beâ€" lieves, and the deposit of soft ooze will weaken the roadâ€"bed. The Northern Tribune thinks it unâ€" reasonable to expect the southern route of the C.N.R. to be safe for travel this month. Bubscription Rates Canadaâ€"$3.00 Per Year.

Softâ€"hearted people who think in terms of sentiment may well work up a little pity for the poor Nazis. They, too, have their troubles, their tribulations, their burdens hard to bear. Take, for instance, the present campaign of villification of Britain. Nazi newspapers appear to have no limits to the words of scorn, contempt, hatred that they are at present heaping upon the Britâ€" ish people. They have revived heaps of the old warâ€"time curses of the British. Even ‘"Gott Strafe England" has been brought out of the disâ€" card and is in daily use. "Perfidious Albion" has been borrowed from French state papers, and the Napoleonic term of contempt, "A Nation of Shopâ€" keepers" has been resurrected from the same source to cater to the popular wave of cursing the British. But there are limits denied to the poor Nazis. Their curses are incomplete, inadequate, and they know it. Yet they are denied the priâ€" vilege of using the very words that would fully relieve the Nazi soul at the present moment. The old ‘"Hymn of Hate," written twentyâ€"fve years ago, was the supreme touch in expressing hatred. It cursed England to the Nazi taste. It expressâ€" ed hatred in a way that would give eccstacy to a Nazi mind. "Hate by water and hate by land," ‘"hate of the heart and hate of the hand"â€"not a hate that was not exproessed perfectly and hateâ€" fully in this Hymn of Hate. Yet the poor Nazis can not use a line of it, not a word of it. Though the author of that poem died recentlyâ€"in his later years deeply regretting and deploring all that he had written in that Hymn of Hateâ€"still no word of his can be used on Nazi tongue, beâ€" cause it has been discovered that this powerful poet, Ernst Lissauer, fanatic German though he appeared to be, was of Jewish extraction, and so is beyond the thought of contact with Nazi minds (if any). There will be no illâ€"humour in the smiles in the rest of the province at the latest smallâ€"town stuff in the big smallâ€"town of Ontario. After all, all the other towns in the province love Torontoâ€" maybe because it is so big a smallâ€"town, so huâ€" man, so simple, so confoundedly silly. No matter how many schools for curtseys may be established in Toronto, the rest of the province will remain calm, though, perhaps, a little anxious as to what form the city folks may take to add to the gaiety of nations. It is not so many years ago that Toronto was in the headlines of its own newspapers because it welcomed a motion picture actress at the front door of the city hall and took viceâ€"royalty round to the side door. Toronto continues to live up to its reputation of being the biggest smallâ€"town in the provinceâ€" _ oOr is it in the Dominion? The latest evidence of this is in the fact that not only has a school been established in the city hall to teach some of the ladies to curtsey, but Toronto newspapers are givâ€" ing full publicity to the fact. All that anybody knows about it is what they read in the newsâ€" papers, but that may be too much. It seems that the wives of members of the Toronto city council and the ladics of the chairmen of the Toronto school boards are being taught the art of making a curtsey, so that they may do themselves proud when they meet the Queen next week. Offlicial announcement has been made that a bow is suiliâ€" cient upon presentation to the King and Qucen. It may be sufficient in other centres, but in Torâ€" onto the ladies apparently are bent on showing the Queen just how a curtsey should be made. According to The Toronto Telegram the ladies are being taught the gentle art of genuinec genuflecâ€" tion by a couple of their own ranks, "whose qualiâ€" fications to teach," as The Telegram naively (or knavely) remarks, "may be no better than their own."‘ Whether the men in Toronto are going to school at the city hall to learn the proper bow for the royal visit, deponent saith not. That also is a truly Toronto touch. For the moment all Toronto thoughts are centred on meeting the King and @ueen. Toronto is always anxious to learn the proper approach. Toronto will know instinctiveâ€" ly how to leave royalty. It is a matter of common world knowledge that the proper way to leave royalty is by stepping back. Toronto needs no city hall school to teach the gentle art of walkâ€" ing backwards. number of men needed for the work. If the C.N. R,. is not competent to do the work, the services of the CP.R. or the T. N. OQ. should be conscriptâ€" ed. It would be a simple matter for the T. N. 0. to repair the Nakinaâ€"toâ€"Hearst line in a matter of days. Then, without any particular disarrangeâ€" ment of schedule, the royal train could be routed through this North and hundreds of thousands of loyal people here would have opportunity for a glimpse at their King and Queenâ€"a@ glimpse that they will have little chance to have if the plan of ignoring the North is followed out. «BP P «P P P DP AALP~ P i wir P m ‘H’Nom HARD LUCK FHE PORCUFPINE ADVANCE, TIMM.,.%N8, ONTARIO As The Advance repeated on several occasions the Ottawa suggestion that it was impossible to change the itinerary of the royal tour was simply a silly assertion.

Not long ago the League was handed over to the care of two doctorsâ€"Dr. Bruce and Dr. Banting â€" who apparently found the patient needed more time than they could spare from their other duties. Anyway, the announceâ€" ment was made in The Globe and Mail last week that ‘Miss Winnifred Kydd, Dean of Women at @ueen‘s University, Kingston, for the past five years, has taken over the Leadership League direction. It is to be hoped that the intention is to Kydd the Leadership League, and not to kid the public. A writer in The Barrie Examiner says:â€"â€"‘‘The common everyday garden onion is really a memâ€" ber of the lily family."

Neda Vujovich, _ Admministrairix Moscoc, â€" Schumacl:er The tantalizing typographical error and the mighty misprint should keep all editors humble, though this does not always happen. In the ediâ€" torial notes of The Orillia Packet and Times last week, the first item very properly poked fun at a folder for tourists issued by the city of St. Catharâ€" ines. This folder said that the "per capita daily consumption of water is five nvillion gallons." "Gee," gloats The Packet and Times, "how do they get it through them?" In the second paragraphn in the editorial notes however, The Packet and Times refers to "a small volume of only cight pages that may be read in two or three hours." The man who would take two or three hours to read even a small volume of eight pages would have to blame it on something stronger than any number of gallons of water. cumstances might casily force last minute changes. ~This has been amply proven. In adâ€" dition to the several changes already made, the delay of the Empress of Australia by fog has madc it necessary to revise the itinerary of the tour. If The Northern Tribune, of Kapuskasing, is corâ€" rect in its reference to the Long Lac washout, a further material change in the itinerary will be inavoidable. There is no honest reason why this change should not be made in such a way as to include this North Land in the itinecrary. Mr. Turnbull was Chicl of Police of Rouyn for cight months. .
