OVER
CYANIDE PLANT

Some days ago James Hendra OBJ
tanned an order from Judge Ducker,
temporarily restraining H. G. Oastler,
ct al, from operating their cyanide
plant at Dun Glen, which stipulated
that defendants should show cause on
the 18th instant why same should not
me made permanent. Hendra's COM
plant alleged that the tailings from
the plant were being dumped on the
open ground and that the cyanide
from the same was washed down the
canyon and found its way into the
springs from which he secured water
for domestic purposes and for water
ing his stock.
1t is claimed by Hendra that defend
ants paid no attention whatever to the
Courts order, and as result they
have been cited to appear before Judge
Ducker tomorrow and show cause why
they shall not be adjudged guilty of
contempt of court and punished ac-
cordingly.
On the other hand, Mr. Oastler
claims that he has not knowingly or
wilfully violated the order of the
Court. That in order to continue his
operations it has been necessary to
dump the tailings, but that they have
not been placed where there is any
possibility of their percolating into
the springs used by defendant. At to-
morrow's hearing plaintiff will be
represented by .,onnifeld & Brandon
and defendant by Salter & Robins.

A CAT NEWSPAPER

We (not the editorial we. but us, the

often hear ladies accuse other ladies
OF being cats. A gentleman Of wide
and variegated experience. who is
well known to and Of the Star. says
all women are cats sometimes, and
some women are cats all of the time,
but he doesn't say that to the ladies,
and the Star doesn't intend to give
him away. So when the editor OF the

was the title some pessimistic and I'M

of ceremonies, made the opening ad-
dress. He spoke Of how the good peo-
pie of Oxford gave big barbecue and

RUDYARD KIPLING
Is AGAINST RECIPROCITY

Rudyard Kip1ing. in a cable letter TO
Montreal paper, gives his reason for
opposing reciprocity with the United
States. He said:
Il do not understand how 100000
can enter into such arrangements as
are proposed with 90,000.000 strangers
on an open frontier of 1000 miles and
a the same time preserve their ma
tional integrity. Ten to one is too
heavy odds. No single Canadian would
accept such odds in any private mat
ter that was as vital to him personally
as this issue to the nation 1t is her
own soul that Canada risks today.
Once that soul is pawned for any con-
sideration Canada must inevitably
conform to the commercial, legal
financial, social and ethical standards
which will be imposed upon us by the
sheer admitted weight OF the United
States. Whatever the United States
may gain, and l presume that the
United States proposals are not wholly
altruistic, / see nothing for Canada in
reciprocity except little ready money
which she does not need and long
repentance"
