All through the North there was genuine sorrow this week at the news that Cliff Moore, of Cobalt, had passed away. He was widely known throughâ€" cut the North and held in regard by all who knew him. In the Cobalt camp, of course, he is particularly well known, having gone to Cobalt in its opening days in 1906. For the past 28 yvears he kept his Cobalt connections but he was also interested in practicalâ€" ly every mining camp in the North. "There are few men who have staked more prospectors than Cliff Moore,‘ said an oldâ€"timer of the Porcupine in speaking this week of the death of Cliff Moore. This Porcupine oldâ€"timâ€" er who was also an early resident of Cobalt, spoke in the highest terms of Cliff Mcore. "He was oné of the best," this. coldâ€"timer said, adding that there was nobody who knew Cliff Moore who could speak anything but good about him. When the list of oldâ€"timers of the Porcupine was being prepared by The Advance this year, perhaps a dozâ€" en different psople said, "And don‘t forget Cliff Moore." He was outstandâ€" ing in popularity among the pioneers of the North. He was among the first to come into the Porcupine camp and his genial philosophy and his readiness to give a helping hand won him inâ€" numerable friends here as elsewhere. His humour was another characteristic that won him notice and popularity. Stories of Cliff Moore form a happy place in any gathering of Cobalt oldâ€". timers. Although he is said to have made considerable money from his mining ventures, he always continued his drug store business. "You can‘t always depend on a mine," he would say, "but you can always make a liv,| Cliff Moore, Pioneer of North, Passes on One of the Bestâ€"known and Most Popular Early Residents of North Dead.

Having referred to the suffering of the men and their families, Premier Bracken added: "I am convinced that the men who went on strike have been deceived and misâ€" led as to the relationshinps of the orâ€" ganizations they were joining, and by the representations of outside agitaâ€" tors, that they realize they made a mistake in the manner of presenting their case and in associating themâ€" selves with,an organization now shown to be affiliated with Communism, that these mistakes many of them now reâ€" cognize, and the majority of the men manfully decided to acknowledge them, if given The opportunity." ‘"Communist movements in the Unitâ€" ed States are still directed by the Third Internationale in Moscow notâ€" withstanding Soviet Russia‘s official pledge to prohibit such activities. As a condition of American recognition, Litvinoff, Russian Commissar of Forâ€" eign Affairs, promised President Roosevelt that Russia would prevent, on her own territory, the activity of any group seeking, the overthrow of social order in the United States. But these subversive activities, by direction of the Third Internationale, have been admitted to a commitltee of Congress by the executive secretary and another member of the central committee of the American Communist party. "Communist agitators, suspected of being directed from Moscow, have freâ€" quently caused industrial troubles in Canada. The connection was clearly shown in the strike of 1,500 miners at Flin Flon, Man., lasting from June 9 to July 9. Premier Bracken, having made a careful personal investigation on the soct, issued a statement in which he said that the plant was closed down ‘‘largely, in my opinion, Say Communist Agitators are Directed by Moscow An editorial in The Toronto Mail and Empire on Tuesday of this week touches on the trouble at Flin Flon. The Mail and Empire says:â€" The funeral was held this week at Norham, Ont., where burial was made in the family plot.

France, the visiting custodian, w2s kept busy in defending his charge as the Scots‘ attack became more dangerâ€" ous and it occasioned little surprise when George Phillips turned in Bromâ€" ley‘s flag kick to open the scoring in the eleventh minute of play. Frood broke away for their first visit to Wallace, but Gray skied well uver from an advantageous position and Stottish were away again to force matters in the Miners‘ goal area where only the stellar display of France and Scottish were easily the better eleven during a stirring first session, scoring the only goal of the half and although the Miners forced the issue early,â€"folâ€" lowing the interval, the Scots went further ahead by the penalty route, but within 10 minutes of the close Gray netted the Miners‘ only counter to round out a great performance. Toronto Scottish came back strongly to defeat Frood Mines by 2 goals to 1 in the third game of the Dominion Cup Ontario playofis at Oakwood staâ€" dium Tuesday night and as a result the round was deadlocked, both elevens gaining a win and a draw on the round, Thus making necessary a fourth game at Ulster stadium on Thursday evenâ€" ing. Frood Mines are certainly worth reâ€" presentatives for the North in footâ€" ball. They have showed brilliance in the D.F.A. series at Toronto, winning the first game from the noted Toronto Scottish, playing the second game to a draw, and though they lost the third game, they were able to tie up the series and a match between the Frood Min»s and the Scottish is to be playâ€" ed this (Thursday) evening.

We regard that as a rather clearâ€"cut and entirely desirable way of doing business. North Bay simply shooâ€"ed theâ€" shed fliles onto New Liskeard just as they have been doing with the tranisents since the depression started. New Lisâ€" keard is asked to kindly head these hunger marchers east, instead of North. In some past years Timmins has had encugh of them to last two lifetimes. Shed flies may not do any serious harm but they surely are a desperate nuisance.
