Mr. H. C. Garner, "keep going." A newspaper that suggests that men have been sentenced to prison because of their upholding of the principle of free speech when as a matter of fact they are confined because they openly advocated revolt and vicience at the instigation of an unfriendly foreign nation, shculd have little difficulty persuading itself that the man who atâ€" tacked a police officer was simply defending his right to stand still when the order was to "keep going."

The truth is very evident that the continual stream oi transients means that many municipalitiee have disâ€" covered a plan to foist their burdens upon others. The town or city that cares for all its own unemployed is doing its part. T( all did that, there would be no need for anyone to "keep gcing." Speaking broadly the "keeping going" of the conâ€" staut stream of transients from Oone place to another is an evil thing for all concerned. What would the Western newsâ€" paper desire? Would it have every town accept all tranâ€" sients and care for them, even to the neglect of their own cases, and the pauperizing of their own people. Cochrane attempted such a plan and eventually had to reverse it with resort to actual physical violence to keep the transients oning sn that Cochrane npeople might have a chance to live | As The Advance has said before, there should have been |no "keep going" idea tolerated. The registration of the unâ€" ‘‘employed last year should have been used to stop the useâ€" \ less and evil passing and repassing of the transients, wearâ€" ling out themselves and the other people of the country to no purpose. â€" With the boast of Government heads that none | should be allowed to starve, there should have gone the plan | of returning the transients to their own towns and cities and ‘seeing that the municipalities concerned looked after them. Should there have been proven to be cases where the muniâ€" cxpalitles were completely unable to cope with their burden of relief, that would have been due warrant for assistance from the Government. As the matter has been allowed to i develop, it is all now a case of some “’trying to evade their rightful responsibility and Oothers attempting to evade unâ€" just and unreasonable oppression by outsiders. Cities like Toronto and Ottawa have deliberately shouldered off their unemployed upon the other towns and cities of the country. Literally hundreds of transients coming to the North in the last year or two admit that they were strongly advised in the South to "keep moving" and partiâ€" cularly to try the North where everything was said to be good, though the press and the people of the South have been officially informed time and time again that Timmins and Kirkland Lake each have a thousand out of work and with no chance for steady work and that the other towns in this North are similarly burdened. There has been in the past two years a constant stream of men who have been told in the West to "keep going" and the same sort of false hopes given them of employment in the North or the East. From the East there has been another stream of transients looking for the gold of employment at the end of a rainbow of "keeping going." In a word, the whole trouble has been the deliberate plot of certain towns, cities and sections to foi<t their burden of unemployment upon others. The people oi the North are hospitable, kindly, helpful and warmâ€" hearted but they pray toâ€"day for a reputation otherwise so that they may be able to escape compléte pauperization in this North the past two y told in the We themselves Of course, the providing of employment is the only safe, sure, logical and economical way of dealing with the present conditions. The transients grow greater as direct relief is extended. Under the present reign of direct relief there are more transients than when there was emplcyment available at certain places. This fact should carry its own lesson. Employment is the only way whereby the irksome order, "keep going" will no longer need to be used. In the meanâ€" time, however, by all the laws of common sense and justice and selfâ€"preservation, towns and cities are forced to demand that the transients "keep going." "Where can the poor felâ€" lows go?" it may be asked as"it has been asked so often. The people of the towns and cities can give no reply to this. All they know is that they cannot possibly keep the tranâ€" sients from afar. The Governments, however, could give the only true answer. They could say:â€"‘"They can go to work! There is the work provided!" Until that day the tranâ€" sients seem to be fated to be forced to "keep going," but they should not blame this on the police, or the towns, or the pecple, but where the onus restsâ€"the Governments who can talk in hundreds of millions for nearly anything but to provide honeSt work for honest men. M‘N WWW ' going so that Cochrane people might have themselves. Under a rigid system where each municipality hau to look after its own responsibilities a great part of the fraud and trickery practised by a few of the transients would have been avoided. In the Nor:nm, for instance, there appears to have grown up a plan whereby transients seem to be transâ€" ferred from one municipality to ancther to work the plans ofi a foreign political party. Some of the transients are estimable people and most deserving. There are cthers, however, who would receive short shrift in their own home towns. It is perfectly true that no man should be allowed to starve, but his own home town is the place where it can be best decided just where and how he should be kept from want. In referring to recent interference by the Lord‘s Day Alâ€" liance with sports and amusements on §Sunday, the Braceâ€" bridge Gazette very truly says that this sort of thing will not make people go to church. The Gazette may not be so accurate in suggesting that interference with the liberty of the common people turns them "red." If this were true, then it would not be illogical to believe that the converse might be true. In the latter event the "reds" would have turned white long ago. The "reds" havwe been allowed all sorts of special liberties in regard to the observance of the liaw about the Sabbath. They have regularly held pienics, sport events, concerts and other affairs an the Sabbath with the purpose of making money out of them. Onily once have the reds been interfered with for unlawful Sunday work and that once was when they attempted to stage a public parade The towns of the North, for example, have borne much more than their due share of the burden of transients. The amount spent by the municipalities in this way is more than equalléd by the generous charity of individual citizens. There are men in this town who never see a day pass withâ€" cut contributing to some transient or cther. Stores in this town are a regular mark for the transient begging a loaf of bread or some cther food or cadging tobacco or cigarâ€" one Sunday afternoon in town. Just alongside the underâ€" taking parlours the leaders were taken from the parade and conveved to the town jail cells. (Otherwise Sunday has been a big day and a profitable one for their leaders on many cocasions.

Kirkland Lake Man Killed in Odd Way Patrick Peters Throws Radio Wire on High Volitage Line and is Electroâ€" cuted as a Result. Craig MacPhadyen, small son of the late Kenneth MacPhadyen, Toronto was drowned in Lake Temagami on Thursday. The little lad ran away from his nurse and fell off a dock in front of the cottage where Mrs. Macâ€" Phadyen and her children were stayâ€" ing. The boy‘s death is the second tragedy in the family this summer. On June 1st his father was found deiad, having been asphyxilated by carbo:n monoxide gas from his motor car. The late Kenneth MacPhadyen, who was very popular and highly regarded by all who knew him, had been conductâ€" ing a large brokerage concern under his own name for some time previous to his death. He was sleeping in a over the garage, and his children were asleey} in an adjoining bedro‘cm. Docâ€" tors at the time said it was little short of a miracle that the children haxai escaped effects of the gas which orerâ€" came and killed the father, The litil» lad who was drowned at Teomagaim} last week was one of the children in the adjoining room who escaped inâ€" jury aAat the time the gas killed the father. When he threw the radio antennae he was erecting over a set of high tension wire, Patrick Peters, 31, a Kirkâ€" land Lake carprnter, was electrocuted, shortly after 7 p.m. Saturday. The acâ€" cident cccurred as the unfortunate man was installing an aerial on the roof O his recently completed home. Attachâ€" ing the bare copper wire to a pole, he threw the other end over a set of tranâ€" mission lines, carrying a load of 2,200 volts and then grasped the uninsulted wire. The Sudbury Star last week said:â€" "March Gold directors are now considâ€" ering several proposals locking to the reâ€"opening of their property in the Porcupine district. One of these is an cutright sale, <but it is stated that the sharelhrolders would not receive a suffiâ€" cient sum for their interests, and the board is said to consider more favourâ€" ably a suggestion that the company be reâ€"organized and new money be taken in. Obligations of the company are chiefly to some of the larger shareâ€" holders. The mine is closed, but is being kept clear of water." Try The Advance Want adve Fire Chief Matheson, accompanied by Lieut, Murphy, responded to a hurryâ€"up call for assistance taking with them a pulm:tor, but although they worked over the victim for some time, their efforts were unavailing. Mr. Peters came to Kirkland Lake from Englehart at the time of his marâ€" riage, three years ago working as carpenter at the Lake Shore mine. He quickly made many friends and was well liked by everycne who knew him. Surviving are his widow, Hazel, and 18â€"momthsâ€"old daughter, Therase, and a ‘brother Jce, all of Kirkland Lake] his mother and younger brother, David, of Detroit. The funeral was held on Wednestay of this week, interment being made at the R.C. cemetery ‘at Charlton. sECOND TRAGEDY THIS YEAR IN THE MACPHADYEN FAMILY MARCH GOLD NOW sAID TO BF PLANNING REâ€"ORGANIZATION
