the last attack, l got a supply OF
Doan's Kidney Pills. AS soon as !

they were helping me and now / am
much better. / intend to give them

of the line divorce cases are tried by

ALIEN OFFICE mo1pERs.

The Winnipeg Telegram is exercised
because persons who are citizens of
the United States are holding Office
The Telegram says:
"a singularly anomalous condition
of affairs is reported from certain
sections of southern Alberta. where
American settlers are discovered to be
holding public positions on rural coun-
ellis while retaining their United States
citizenship. 1t is further stated that
in two or three settlements there are
no British subjects eligible for these
positions. while the Americans, who
have made their homes in western
Canada, are reported as disinclined to
renounce their United States citizen.
ship.
THE. municipalities act passed by
the Alberta legislature contains a pro-
vision that rural councillors shall be
British subjects or shall have declar-
ed an intention of becoming natural-
ICED. That this provision ought to be
firmly enforced no Canadian will be
disposed to deny.
Permanent settlers in a foreign
country W it to the land of their
adoption whose benefits Of govern
ment and opportunities for material
advancement they enjoy to identify
themselves with the citizenship Of that
country. Failing in that the right to
hold public Office should be denied
them. 1t is doubtful whether elsewhere
in the world such a condition exists
as that reported from southern AL
berta.
Western Canada welcomes the set
tier from the United States. But it
must draw the line at the spectacle of
aliens holding public office and franz
ing legislation for a British COM
munity."
Everyone will agree with the Tele-
gram that it is reasonable to require
that persons shall be citizens OF the
country in which they live before they
are permitted to hold office there. We
make such requirement on this side
of the line, II evidently the Cana
dams do also. The trouble is that
in some sections there are no residents
except those who retain their foreign
citizenship. When that condition ex-
lists we do not know what can be done
about it. Evidently under such cir
cumstances there can be no legal or
g~anization. Possibly the problem
might be solved by promoting the set
tlement in each Of such communities
of enough Canadian settlers to hold
the Offices.
