TO VOTE
British Columbia PrOyinci, l
 Fl ctiOn Tomorrow

The election for the provincial par lament of British Columbia will take place tomorrow. Forty-two members are to be chosen and the contest is one of the hottest ones in the history of the province, and the first one to be dee cided upon the lines of political parties.
 The present premier, Richard Nc Bride, is leading the conservative par ty in the contest, and if it shall win, he will again form a government
 The liberal party has no authorized leader. Joe Martin had been selected as the party leader, but he resigned last spring, and a successor has not been selected. He is a candidate from Vancouver for membership in the par lament, and in the event of the succe,s S of that party, he will probable again aspire to the leadership. The liberal leader will be chosen by the members Of parliament belonging to that party.
 It has been thought that the situa- tion has been more favorable for the conservatives than the liberals, though the latter have strengthened them- selves a great deal by fusing iamany instances with the labor par,s. S

at dinner, when they had got into dis

Person gave a derivation which King
considered to be SO farfetched as to be
quite ridiculous. "You might as well

RosweIl's Growth.

The secretary of the Board of
Education has completed the
school enumeration for the Ros-
well school district and finds
that within this disteiet there
arenow 1906 persons OF school
age, that is between the ages OF
five and twenty-one. Last year
there were only 1922 in the same
territory. In other words there
has been in one year an increase
OF 3S4 pupils of school age or an
increase ofs34A per cent. This OF
itself shows the remarkable
growth Roswell has had during
the past year. With this in
crease OF our school population
it ia little wonder there is need OF
much more school room than we
now have. Ii isamusing now to
look back aboutfour years when

Many OF these people are yet

but Ros9ell's growth will con-
0inue. The school population
viii probably not continue to in

with the growth Of the Valley,
Roswell will continue to have a
steady, firm and substantial
