ARTHUR MEIGHEN Solicitor-General of Canada Declared ! That Great Britain's Contention is Embodied in the One Term "a Fair Field and no Favor'--A'rgu- ments Set Forth on a Technical Issue - | That: Great Britain's contention is | embodied in the one term, "a fair field and no favor," was the declara- tion of Hon. Arthur Meighen, solici- tor-general of Canada, addressing the members of the Kingston Cana- dian Club, in the Frontenac hotel, on Thursday night, on "Panama Canal Tolls." There was a very large turn-out of the members of the club to hear the technical issues on the subject, dis- cussed by the solicitor-general. J. L. Whiting, K.C., president of the club, presided, and introduced the speaker. The club also had a brief address from J. A. Ruddick, Do-| minion dairy commissioner, on dairy- ing. Mr. Ruddick spoke at a meet- ing of dairymen of this district in the Board of Trade rooms on Thurs- day afternoon. Rev. Dr. E. B Ryckman said grace for the dinner. Mr. Meighen has dll the arguments in the case at his finger's end, and set forth his reasons for believing that Great Britain's view should pre- vail in regard to the questions at issue. The great canal was referred to as a world utility, which would come under tolls, and which we would see operated next year. The United States had built the canal, would con- trol it, and contended that their con- trol gave the country the gight to legislate for the tolls. The' country claimed sovereign rates. The claim was set forth that the country not only built the canal, but owned tbs canal zone through which it was built, and for this reason, would ex-; ercise sovereign rights. The speak- er contended, however, that at the! time the treaty was signed, the Unit- ed States had no sovereign rights They also contended that "the vessels of all nations," did not include the United States, but there was nothing | to show that "the vessels of all na- tions," should not include the States This argument was a dangerous one, had a reverse action, and would tend to injure the United States more-than any other country. "The vessels of all nations," had reference to all the nations and noth- ing else. Another contention of the United States was this: "we are| fighting over very little"; that only | the coastwise shipping was exempt and therefore there was no competi- tion and no peison was injured. This was an argument of doubtful value However, coastwise might mean one thing in one country, and an entirely different thing in another country. ! It would mean just what a country | had a mind to make it mean, had no standing in the law. Great Britain was willing to abide by arbitration and consequently little was to be gained by controversy. Great Britain was prepared to pay | her full share on a basis to be de-| cided on for the upkeep and main- | tenance | The speaker went into all the |; arguments in detail, all of which!' were of a technical nature. | Mr. Ruddick's address was a story of the progress made in the dairying interests, touching on matters he had referred to in his address in the] afternoon at the Board of Trade | rooms. The speaker referred to the | fact that just twenty years ago, he | lived in Kingston, and therefore he had qualified as a Kingston old boy At the close of the addresses, the | two speakers, on motion of W.

DEALT WATH BY {IN TORONTO "vows STATEMENT ABOUT QUEEN'S, An Absolute Denial Given to the Statement" That There is "Fric. tion" Over the Leonard Military "Tinining Offer, This statement appeared in the To- ronto News on Thursday, "It is said some' friction has devel- oped in Queen's university. It has been difficult to agree on the exact control which should: be exercised by the university over the buildings and equipment for military training which Major Leonard offers. It is, wunder- stood Major Leonard proposes that the whole new department should be under a board of six members, of which three should represent the uni- versity. The -other three would be the local officer commanding in the Kingston district, the commandant of the Royal Military College, and Ma- jor Leonard himself. "This does not give university Hence, it meets with objec- tion from Some of the professors and trustees. Jt is difficult to see how control by the university_can be sur- rendered, and yet the differences' now are so unimportant that under ener- geti¢ leadership an understanding should be easily effected. All Major leonard should require is that the departmient he is to provide and maintain should be subject to regu- lations laid down by himself and ac- cepted by the university authorities, the whole agreement depending upon the observance of the contract. "Aside from this difficulty, there | ts a prospect that Principal Gordon may resign in order to become head of the theological department. Dr. the present head, is entitled to superannuation, and if Principal Gordon should desire to succeed him guarantee of a pension, probably ac- tion would be taken to secure a new principal for the university proper With the provision of military train- ing to be provided by Major Leonard, with the gift of $100,000 from Lord Strathcona, and with the certainty of aid from the provincial govern- ment, Queen's is about to enter on a new and more active period in its uccessful and influential career. [here are those who think that now is the time for a complete reorgan- ization and for the appointment of a new principal. This movement is not antagonistic to Principal Gor- but is led by those who are per- suaded that a younger and more en- ergetic "head should be appointed, but who also feel that Dr. Gordon's services have been such that he should be provided with lighter du- ties and an absolute certainty of a rest of his days.

The story which is consistent if followed closely throughout. "Cicero Hannibal Butts" is in Lon- don with his wife, who is an ar- dent suffragette. They are suppos- ed to be on their way to Russia, but at the last moment Mrs. Butts re ceives an invitation to lead a band of suffragettes in a demonstration on the House of Parliament and to help throw a few bricks It is at this point that "Anna Varvara," known to the Russian secret police as "The Red Widow" overhears Mrs. Butts' declaration that she ig going to stay behind "The Red Widow," with her look and wiles, subjects the dangers of being mixed matters that are dangerous for Russia: .she persuades him to al- low her to cross the frontier, as Mrs. Butts He, willing to help a lady in distress agrees The second act, private parlor jn the Hotel!

With the prestige of a record- making half-year's success in New York and the recent Chicago en- gagement where each performance was greeted with ovations, "'Sweet- hearfs" will come to this city with an organization of eighty singers comedians and chorus that the press of these cities has recognized ax as the 'best comic opera cast in a generation." The music of this brilliant new work is. by Vietor Herbert and it 'has been thought that in its com- position this veteran American com- poser has 'produced his magter work. He has given waltzes of red blood and sentiment and marches that carry their hearers along with them in spirit. In none of the later popular comic operas is there thought to have been so great a eon- trast of melodies, ranging from im- portant concerted numbers to ligh- ter tunefulness that have comedy tu each bar of music. The merry story taken from an old Flemish fairy tale by Harry B. and Robert B. Smith and Fred de Crosac. is writ- ten in the tone of the gay opera comique of former days. The an- nouncement is made that "Sweet. hearts" will be heard with the fam- ons company, the great chorus, and also the Vietor Herbert opera or- chestra at the Grand on Wednesday, INTO 3 en and his April 22nd.
