PICKERING THE WATER BOILS Toronto Age BROWN PAPER LIQUOR CASE TO BE APPEALED ONGE MORt Temagami Man Lost in Appeal to Judge and Case Goes to Appelate Diviâ€" sion at Osgood Hall. Involves "Brown Paper" Order to Buy Liquor. Roy was convicted of illegal possesâ€" | sion of liquor after the car he was drivâ€" ing was stopped by Provincial Constable Ralph Crozier at Goward, four miles | north of Temagami. Roy‘s own permit ’[ had been cancelled and at the trial before the magistrate it was argued that he was within his legal rights in preâ€" [ senting a Written order, signed by himâ€" self, but using the name of Robert Erindle, also of Temagami, and written ‘ on stationery of the Hotel Haileybury. What is becoming known as the: "Brown Paper‘ liquor case is to be apâ€" appealed a second time. This case was originally one from Temagami and was tried by Magistrate Atkinson. Now, according to despatches the "brown paâ€" per" liquor order case from Temagami bids fair to become something of a classic in the court annals of this district. Starting in police court in Cobalt on September 6 last, the conâ€" viction subsequently registered a week later by Magistrate Atkinson on Edâ€" ward Roy, the defendant, already has been appealed unsuccessfully to Judge Hartman, and now it is being taken to Toronto. George W. Mitchell, K.C., counsel for the defence, strted last week that he would carry his client‘s case to the Apâ€" pellate Division at Osgoode Hall, and that he thought the argument would be heard in the course of the present week. He will handle the matter in person, Mr. Mitchell said. The necesâ€" sary consent of the Attorneyâ€"General of Ontario to the appeal has been obâ€" tained, according to Mr. Mitchell. The claim was advanced by the deâ€"| fence that Brindle had written an order for the liquor on piece of brown wrapping paper, but that, in order to make a better appearance, Roy had copied out the contents on the hotel stationery. For the prosecution, Crown Attorney F. L. Smiley, K.C., argued that the brown paper order was in realâ€" ity a ‘"covering up order," prepared after the constable‘s action. Roy was fined $200 and costs, or three months in Haileybury jail, where he is at preâ€" sent incarcerated. The conviction has been appealed once already, but was upheld by Judge Hartman. Port Arthur Newsâ€"Chronicleâ€"The *rend in agriculture throughout Thunâ€" der Bay has been clearly in evidence *hrough the series of Fall fairs, conâ€" cluding with that of this week at Murilâ€" lo. People who have been regular in uttendance over a priod of years can zsee a distinct improvement. The tenâ€" gency of specialization is very evident. In that the farmer is but following the example of the modern business world. Toronto Mail and Empire:â€"A memâ€" ber of the W.C.T.U. says that the cockâ€" tail epidemic is worse than the influenâ€" za epidemic. There are, no doubt, lot of injudicious makers of cocktails about, and some danger that the art of making them will finally disappear. SPECIALIZING ON THE FARM THE PORCUPINE ADVANCE, TIMMINS, ONTARIO Resources to be Tapped By Railway to James Bay Port Arthur Newsâ€"Chronicleâ€"Withâ€" out the same flare of trumpets, but with almost as much importance to the country, the Temiskaming and Northâ€" ern Ontario railway is being steadily pushed forward until it is expected that by August of next year it will touch salt water of James Bay and make Ontario a maritime province. The T. N. O., in reaching out for James Bay, is not designed as a route for grain or a short way to reach the old country; but it has other important commercial possibilities. Survey of the James and Hudson bays indicate that such resources as are to be found in the region are more freely distributed on the eastern side. This applies parâ€" ticularly to fishing. The fishing indusâ€" try promises to thrive in waters adjaâ€" cent to the James Bay terminal, and the line, giving direct connection with Toronto and United States cities, may get considerable trade therefrom. Meanwhile Port Arthur and Fort William may very well assume that when this particular railway undertakâ€" ing is carried to its natural conclusion the Ontario government and Ontario people in general might be in the huâ€" mour to look about for further tunities of a similar nature. Then w.ill be the opportunity to press the advanâ€" tages which would accrue from conâ€" struction northward from Port Arthur and Fort William, West of Lake Nipiâ€" gon to the great Albany river. KAPUSKASING JUNIORS TO ENTER N.OH.A. THIS YEAR That Kapuskasing is resolved to make a strong bid for junior hockey honours this coming winter is the gist of desâ€" patches from Kapuskasing last week. At a largely attended and enthusiastic meeeting of hocking fans held in the club last week a fourâ€"team town league was organized and an executive elected. One of the teams in the town league to be known simply as the Kapuskasing Juniors,; will enter in the. N. O. H. A. ‘Junior series, playing the same lineup in both town league and N.OH.A The other three teams will represent the Town, the Mill and the Moose. The executive elected Wednesday night consists of: Honorary Mr. E. S. Noble: president A. G. Durâ€" gin: secretaryâ€"treasurer, Geo. Nattress; fAirst viceâ€"president, P. Bedard; o‘her viceâ€"presidents, Messrs Stevens and Lyâ€" ons and Father Morisseau: and an exâ€" ecutive committee. Kapuskasing will have one of the fiâ€" nest rinks in Ontario in which to play hockey this winter, due to the kindness of the Spruce Falls Power and Paper Co. and the town. It will be entirely covered with spacious ice surface, and having comfortable seats for spectators, commodious Gdressing rcoms, and a :plendid entrance. While not yet fiâ€" nished, it will be ready in plenty of time for the first game of the season. soOME OF THE DANGERS FROM AUTOMOUBILE HEADLIGHTS In an editorial article last week The Simcos> Reformer says:â€""One of the most flagrantly violated sections of the Highway Traffic Act is that relating to the number of candlepower permissible in headlights on motor cars and to the use of antiâ€"glare devices. It will be a source of satisfaction then to many motorists to learn that provincial traffic officers have received instructions to make a close checkup on drivers who are using headlights which do not conâ€" form with the law. It is a wonder that the authorities at Queen‘s Park have not taken the initiative in this direction long ago, because the question has been ‘horcughly in the press from ime to time both in the form of ediâ€" ‘corials and letters from justly irritated motorists. Judging by the number of drivers who make a practice of dimâ€" ming their headlights, selfishness and discourtesy predominate among a large section to the motoring fraternity.

TRANSâ€"CANADA HIGHWAY IS â€" A NATIONAL UNB[RIAKING‘ Route Should be Decided on This Idea and Not at the Behest of Any Number of Interested Cities or Corporations. In discussing the various routes proâ€" posed for the Transâ€"Canada highway, The Advance has on several occasions reprinted articles from the columns of The New Liskeard Speaker. The Speaker has an able and pleasing way of presenting a case and its opinions are always thoughtful and wellâ€"reaâ€" soned. In the last issue, under the heading, "The Great Ferguson Highâ€" way is Ontario‘s Contribution Towards the Transâ€"Continental Highway," The Speaker touches on several points that are worthy of emphasis. } | | I "It was almost the natural thing for. Sault Ste. Marie, Port Arthur and Fort William to approve of such route. The advantages of these cities were so. obvious that any other action would have been almost absurd. But Sudbury is in a section where advocates of the Cochraneâ€"Hearst route expected to gather a big measure of support. "Following expressions of opinion from eastern Ontario, which is steadily swinging round to favour the lake shore route, Sudbury‘s action is very encourâ€" aging. It throws another big centre of population into the balance. Fort Wilâ€" liam, Port Arthur, Sault Ste. Marie and Sudbury have a combined populatiofi in themselves of nearly 100,000 people. Adjacent and contributory territories represent fully that many more. Their influence cannot but have a very materâ€" ial effect on the making of a route deâ€" ! cision." "Decision of the Sudbury board of trade to give its full support is one of the most important developments of the movement to promote the Lake Suâ€" perior shore route for the transâ€"Canâ€" ada highway." says the Port Arthur Newsâ€"Chronicle. The article is opened by the followâ€" ing quotation from a recent issue of The Sudbury Star:â€" With the above paragraphs as a text The Speaker proceeds as follows:â€" "The Port Arthur Newsâ€"Chronicle in the foregoing, and the Sudbury Star in endorsing it, justifies us in saying what we hitherto did not wish to say, viz.: that the Lake Shore Route appears to be a scheme conceived in the interests of four cities, rather than in the interests of a great National Highway. We are told that "The advantages of these citiesâ€"not the advantages to Canadaâ€" are so obvious," etc. And again, the people of Canada are reminded that these four cities have a population of 100,000, sufficient, it is thought to inâ€" fluence the Government of Ontario, and the wholesale dealers and manuâ€" facturers of the Province. "Sudbury was not recognized as a supporter of the Ferguson highway route, as is intimated in the above News Chronicle extract, but has thrown in its lot with the three cities because by doâ€" ing so, if the Lake Shore road were built, this city would enjoy all the adâ€" vantages North Bay will enjoy, and greater advantages when road paralâ€" leling the National Railway has been built to the south. "There is method in Sudbury‘s madness‘"‘ which North Bay will appreciate should the Lake Shore route be chosen. "As much as any one can admire the nerve of these cities one cannot admire their, judgment. Why, the fact that these cities have combined for the purâ€" pose of securing the building of the Transâ€"Canada road along the rocky shores of Lake Superior is suflicient to make the pecple Canada suspicious and auite naturally they are saying: "We would not say a word to deprive the cities of Sault Ste. Marie, Fort Arâ€" thus and Fort William of the trade they would likely do with Americans if they could come into Ontario at The S99 and, after passing through these cities leave the Province via the Duluth route. Indeed, some such road ought to be built if it be found possible to find a suitable route; but the ten million citiâ€" zens of Canada want a more direct route through a more "worth while" country with fewere rocky hills, and where the land is so favourable for agricultural pursuits that tourists from south, east and west will be favourably impressed and comment on, and in many cases, visit the two demonstration farms lying along the PFerguson highâ€" way about 225 miles apart. The fact that these four cities have asked the Government to bring the Transâ€"Canada road along the shores of Lake Superior where no Government of Ontario has ever undertaken to build a road, inâ€" stead of over the Ferguson Highway which, evidently, was intended by Preâ€" mier Ferguson as Ontario‘s contribution to the Transâ€"Canada road, was a reflecâ€" tion on the judgment of the Ontario Government. "Last week at a meeting of the Proâ€" vincial Associated Boards of Trade conâ€" vention the Lake Shore road proposiâ€" tion was turned down, but the wire notifying The Speaker was received toc late for our last issue. Also, last Satâ€" urday, the deputation of one hundred citizens of the "four cities," which waited on the Ontario Government was unable to secure anything more tangible than a promise that their views would receive the consideration of the Government." "ITf the Lake Shre route is the Tight route it would not need the advice of cne hundred thousand citizens of four interested cities to convince the Govâ€" ernment of this fact." nto Mail and Empire:â€"R said that every nust concsider first the ir owWwn C his own n9usE THERE ISs AN ART EVEN IN SWALLOWING OF GOLDFISH (Trom the Northern Miner) Here is a story of a happening of 20 years ago in Cobalt. As the principal actor has since passed away and no names will be mentioned it will proâ€" bably be safe to pass on to an eager posterity. A Cobalt business man was suddenly freed of domestic restraint through the circumstance of his wife‘s departure to visit a sick relative. He seized the ocâ€" casion to repay certain social dates bf an unconventional nature, and to this end he gathered together a number of his men friends for a little celebration at his home. It was a large evening, and a good time was being had by all. In the early hours of the morning one of the guests conceived the notion of eating his host‘s gold fish. The host protested, as did others of the guests, but without avail. Bets were laid that it could not be done. The fish fancier solemnly swallowed three of the wriggâ€" ling victims, to the intense amusement of his friends. He held them up by the tail and lowered them down his throat without quiver. Naturally, here was a reaction. Touchâ€" ing on this feature of the entertainâ€" ment one of those present remarked later: "Poor old Joe had a terrible time. You see, the fins and the scales were pointed the wrong way." Fort Williiam Timesâ€"Journal At the end of the present month the Fort William and district municipal league will hold its semiâ€"annual sesâ€" sions. This league is unique in its manâ€" ner of organization and takes a place in the district that has been recogâ€" nized by all governments, in spite of the fact that the league has no official standing, nor has it any basis for its existence other than the voluntary coâ€" operation of the municipalities and their officials. St. Mary‘s Journalâ€"Argus:â€"A corresâ€" pondent refers to the fact that not one horse passed through town last Sunday afternoon and remarks "the old order changeth yielding place to new" and also "Lizzie has replaced the old gray mare." But our correspondent has forgotten the St. Mary‘s fire team.
