There has been a new turn to the situation _ recently, . the Mattagami Pulp Paper Co. being declared in bankrupey. Just what effect this may have upon the probabilities of payâ€" ment for the settlers would appear to depend upon the Government. _ The most valuable asset of the Mattagami Company is the list of pulpwood conâ€" cessions. It is understood that the timber limits held by the company exceed in value all liabilities of all kinds. If this is the case, there would appear to be no reason why all holdâ€" ing claims against the company should not be paid,â€"debenture holders, preâ€" ferred shareholders and ordinary creâ€" ditors, including the settlers. _ The Government holds the key to the situâ€" ation. When the company was in receiverslhip, the fact that the Govâ€" ernment had stated that no transfer of limits would be approved until the settlers were paid prevented any of the reâ€"organizations or sales planned. It would appear that the Government can still use its position to protect the settlers. If the Government stands firm in its attitude that no transfer of limits will be permitted until the settlers are paid, no doubt it will be possible to reâ€"organize the Mattagami business without defaultâ€" ing in payment to the settlers, The debenture holders, the preferrâ€" ed creditors, and even the other ordinâ€" ary creditors, are in position to proâ€" tect their interests by securing: the most expert of legal talent. In this, «of course, the settlers are naturally handicapped. ‘They can form no imâ€" portant combination to ‘force their views." Because of their pioneering of the country, because of their situation here, they should be considered as spedia! wards of the Government, and the Government should see that their interests are protected to the limit. The Government‘s attitude to the North Land generally is the right one, the fair one, the patriotic one, ‘The Advance hopes that in the case of the Mattagami Pulp Paper Co. and the settlers, the Government will conâ€" tinue to show in practical fashion that it is a true supporter of the North and the people of the North. | â€"**I wonder if we can squeeZe 1N hi« hereavement through the death of hoya 0 » Sheâ€"‘‘Don‘t you think, dear that we‘d better wait till we get home?" A Texas farmer ran the following advertisement in his local newspaper: ‘"Qtravedâ€"One Jersey heifer. To the one who returns her, I will give a drink of Rose whlskey, 10 years old. 19 The next morning there were nine men with Jersey heifers standing in his daughter Marie. Also sincere thanks are extended to the many who sont such beautiful floral tributes. Special appreciation is felt for the kindness of the K. of C., the Kiwanis Club, the Loyal Order of: Moose, the Society of Cavaro, Timmins, the Daughters of ‘Italy, Montreal, La Coneordia Society, Montreal, and the Hiavanni Cabotto Society, Montreal, mnd all others whose sympathy and OUTSIDE WALL OF TOWNSITE HOUSE DAMAGED BY FIRE At 1.30 p.m. Wednesday of this week there was an alarm of fire from Box 43, Hollinger Townsite. The firemen about beat their own record in reaching the seene with the, motor truck. The fire was at the residence of Mr. T. O. Brady, 24 Messines avenue, the outside of the wall at one side of the house being on fire. The fire had quite a grip on the sheeting of the wall, but was put out by the skilled use of the chemical tanks. The loss will likely be‘ around $25.00, it being necessary to reâ€"cover part of the wall. It is not known how the fire originated. Perhaps a match or cizarette stub thrown by a passerby may have set fire to paper or waste near the wall, or boys playing nearby may have been responsible. For over five years a number of settlers in this district have waited, with what patience they could sum mon, for the payment for pulpwood sold in good faith to the Mattagami Pulp Paper Co. Owing to the fact that the settlers were induced to acâ€" cept notes for the amounts due, it was not possible to attach the pulpwood under the ordinary lien plan. The compan‘s went into a receivership and the notes were dishonoured at maturâ€" ity. The settlers for the past five years have had to go without their money. While the amount is not a large one in the way of finance, it is a serious matter to the settlers who depend so largely upon the sale of pulpwood to carry on their work pioneering this country. Some of the. settlers were actually ruined by the failure of the company to meet its obligations. All of themâ€" were seriously handicapped and burdened. lt may be said that The Advance has been repeating all this regularly for the past five years. The answer, of course, is that just as regularly for the past five years the settlers have been waiting for the money due them and needed so badly by them.
