LITTLE BETTING ON

Admirers Of the Giants and Ath-

the last moment before placing their

has been practically no betting. A
few wagers were made yesterday at
even money. So we'll matched are

sides demand shade in the odds.
Furthermore, it is not known de-
fnitely whether Larry Doyle, If he

full justice. New Workers wish to

fully that the captain is right.

THE greatest question or the day
In Canada, declared Bourassa, is
that of contribution to Great Britain.
Canada Is trans-continental country.
and as long as we are not represented
in the affairs Of the empire. we should
be under no obligations TO that empire.
1T is the same thing over again OF
your original l3 colonies-taxation
without representation. Anti-imperial-
lists. and. indeed, many other political
classes have turned against Premier
Borden because OF the dissatisfaction

from the government service.

abroad we should 40 more contribute
than did the l3 original colonies. Can

rather undergo natural development of

idea than TO have constant friction.
