as is done in California, but some
thought this might be objection
able and the matter will be investl-
gated before being tried. The
city has on hand three barrels OF
crude oil purchased TO fight the
mosquito evil, and an experiment
may be made with this.
Steps were taken to have another
acre in the city cemetery cleared
and made ready for use. Cans FOR
refuse will be secured, painted and
placed in suitable locations, and
the public urged to throw paper
and trash in them and thus help to
keep the city clean. The street
committee has worthy campaign
started to clean up the streets and
alleys of the town.
The survey for a proposed city
sewer system was indefinitely post
poned, due to lack of funds.
There was discussion relative

inspector who should also collect
dog and poll taxes, but definite
action was deferred until a better
understanding as to the duties O
the Office could be had with tn,
different applicants.
1t was reported that site for /
dump ground had been secured

G. N. TRAINS MUST RUN SLOWER
Excessive Speed Through City Limits
Moves Council to Action.

That there is great danger to the
public on account of the speed
with which the Great Northern fast
mail train passes through the
city, was the unanimous opinion
of the city council at the session
Tuesday evening, and it was
agreed the speed of this train
must be reduced. The matter had
previously been taken up with the
company, and q letter was read
stating that the speed, while pass
ing through the city, would be re-
duced to rs miles an hour, the
previous rate having been from IS
to 40 miles. The council still in
sists that the reduced speed would
be excessive, and the company will
be asked to operate this train at
speed not faster than Is miles an
hour.
Due to the fact that the track
makes sharp curve through the
city, passing three crossings, there
is great danger to the public. A
serious accident was barely averted
a few days ago when the driver Of
one of the school wagons pulled
his team onto their launches just
in time to avoid being struck by
the train. The wagon was full Of
children, and the possible result
had an accident occurred, can cas-
| lily be imagined.

That the people of Bonncrs Fer

by the address last week of Prof.

a mistake in our Advertising said
A. J. Kent, president of the Koote-
mai Valley Commercial Club. In
stead of laying so much stress up
on the fruit industry, since listen
ing to Prof. Shaw and giving the
matter due consideration, / am
convinced it will be wiser in the
future to devote more attention to
placing before prospective settlers
our unexcelled advantages in dairy
ing and stockraising. ! do not
mean by this that we cannot grow
fruit. 1t has been amply demon
strated that no section i'll the
Northwest can excel us in that
particular, we having taken many
prizes at fruit shows for the excel
lence and variety of our displays,
but l do believe that dairying and
stock raising will bring quicker,
larger and more lasting returns to
the average man who will settle on
our land. Hereafter our advant-
ages in these particulars are going
to receive more attention from

This but voices the conviction of
many. 1t must be admitted the
fruit industry is not looked upon
with the favor it once was, and
many men will prefer to engage in
those lines of agriculture in which
the returns are apt to be more safe
and certain. 1t is a we'll known
fact that any section in which the
principal industry is dairying and
stockraising is always prosperous
The monthly pay check from the

slightest chance, and with the
great yields possible from turnips

tain that dairying and hog raising
here would be very profitable. On,
advantage to this is that pastur,
can be provided on the stump lane
by removing only the brush ant

the stumps, thus securing an ex

.Curtailmentof the
Liquor Traffic
BY ASSOCIATED PRESS.

Winnipeg, Man, Dec. Premier
Sir. Rodman Robin announced in a
long statement today that the Mani
toba government had decided to take
drastic action for the curtailing the
liouor traffic during the war period.
The forthcoming session of the leg
islature will be asked to pass gov
ernment bill giving municipalities the
right to limit by a majority vote the
number Of licenses and a clause Will
be inserted giving the government
special powers to curtail the hours
at which liquor may be sold in times
Of public stress. While the government
has not those powers now, it proposes
to invite all retail liquor dealers in the
province, as well as social clu1s to
close bars at o'clock in the evening
instead of at II o'clock as at present
and the wholesalers to close at 8
o'clock.
AS the government controls the
licenses it is practically certain that
early closing will become general
thoroughout the province Immediately
In making this announcement, Sir.
Redmond refers specially to the large
number Of citizen soldiers in Winnipeg
and all parts of this military division
training for service with the Second
Canadian contingent.

in Mexico and not to take personal
revenge on any one. I promise that
order will be restored at once. am
acting as the subordinate Of Provision
al President Gutierrez and the nation
al convention.
'sThe provisional president is now
the supreme power in Mexico and
am merely acting as field commander

dero. The Carranza troops retired aftel
a skirmish between outposts.
This is better than my last yls1
when came here as friendless prls-

Consolidation Of
two Presbyterian
Churches isVa aid

Jefferson City, Mo. Dec. 1.-The con-
solidation of the Presbyterian church
CNorth) and the Cumberland Presby-
terian church is valid, according to a
decision Of the Missouri supreme court
today.
The property of the Cumberland
church at Marshall, Mo. under the de-
cision of the court, becomes the prop
erty of the Presbyterian church, re-
gardless of the fact that it was PAID
for by members of the Old Cumberland
church. All the judges concurred eX-
cept Judge Graves.
The decision was on a case appealed
from the circuit court at Marshall, in
which the Cumberland church sought
recovery of it's old property ana
claimed that the consolidation OF the
two branches of the Presbyterian
church was illegal.
The supreme court ruled that civil
courts have no right to interfere with
the decision of the highest tribunal
of the church in purely ecclesiastical
affears.
Under this decision Missouri Valley
College at Marshall will become the
property of the Presbyterian church.
