gave not only his organizing genius but all of himself
to his dual task-frst agent here for the Allies,
then amoner there for America. That service and
that sacrifice have richly earned for his a
place on the wars true honor roll
His financial and organization gifts plus per-
sonaty that woke affection well inspired ad-

banking peak-a Morgan partnership. That rise from
the humblest of beginnings typically American
career,-was marked always by the creative, con-
structve spirit. He was the sort of a big banker
that could build not only the mechanics but the
morale of great institution. His future scope as
such banker, in the latter decades of an assured
career, would have meant much in world need

Across that came the war call First it
summoned the banker to negotiate with skill and

COLONIZING QUEEN CHARLOTTE
ISLANDS.

The feasibility of planting colonies of agrcul
turists in the North is being tried out the Queer
Charlotte Islands A large colony English settlers
whose chief occupation will be farming has beer
established there Heretofore, while there has beer
some farming very small scale on those Islands
numbering and fishing has been the chief occupation
The practicability of the plan colonize The
Queen Charlotte Islands has been a subject much dis
through the columns of the Prince Rupert news
doubt upon the project
Commenting upon the proposition the Prince
Rupert News says
Now that the English immigrants have
arrived on the Queen Charlotte Islands and
taken up their residence there. the question
of the sui liability of the Islands for agrcul-
tural pursuits has again become greatly
discussed matter. Opinions, only in
Prince Rupert but generally very diff
ferent. Some condemn them for such pur-
= pose while Others say there great posi-
= bilities. 1t is not the intention here to adj
judicate on the point. There is thing
that is certain however and that is that sat
certain points on Graham Island agriculture
in many branches, especially the raising of
fruit and vegetables and stock, can be carried
on with great success. Some settlers already
there produce almost all they need in the
way OF food and require to bring in only
few staple lines that would be necessary any
where 1t is also possible to produce the
market in good quantity. The one draw
back from which the islands suffering
now Is transportation and will deny
that this is limited and is not adequate

Most Merciul Father. whose love to us is mighty,

Unmarried people always are the

MAKING OUR DEM
OCRACY PROGRESS

A democracy progresses or it be-
comes a poor democracy, like most OF
the South American republics. A de-
mocracy develops its benefits until
ALL THE PEOPLE are benefited, or
it is no democracy at all.
Since our republic was established,
the general government has spent I'M
told millions and billions of dollars in
our cities where people are gathered
in the mass. Carloads of money have
gone for million dollar postoffices,
great harbor improvements and other
projects benefiting that massed part
of the population. Every year tens
of millions are paid out to the en-
ployees of Uncle Sam who live ana
work in the cities.
Where the government spends five
million dollars in city of 100, 900 peo-
pie, how much does it spend on an ag-
ricultural county of 100000 people and
in which are located only few small
towns and villages?
ANSWER: so SMALL AN
AMOUNT AS TO BE ABSOLUTELY
ABSURD IN COMPARISON.
If it spends the -hundredth part
of that sum, or $4,000, in such IA
county, that county thinks a miracle
has happened.
The government ought to spend at
least as much of the public taxes and
of the receipts from its bonds where
one so per cent Of the total popula-
ton lives as it spends where the other
so per cent lives. How?
To the mind of this editor, the
FIRST NECESSITY is THE Paw
ING AND SEWERING OF THE
STREETS OF COMMUNITY CEN
TIERS, the small towns of the nation.
Paving, for the business prosperity,
the convenience, the educational ad-
vantage and the comfort of the whole
community, and to advance the civic
! solidarity of the whole community
surrounding such towns. Sewering in
centers, as national health measure,
the sewers to be extended to the
| farms in good time. Small towns
cannot afford such projects; they will
do we'll to keep them up after the i'm
| provements are established.
| The government can and should af-
ford it. And for every dollar Uncle
Sam spends in such public improve
ments, he will increase the wealth of
the nation $40 up to even 500.
A book could be written on the enor-
nous advantages that would accrue ia
all the people of the United States
ALL OF THEM-from such extension
of government attention to our viii
lagos and towns.
1t is not dream; it is plain prog
ress, and this newspaper proposes to
urge such government enterprises
from time to time in an effort to fur.
Their democracy in this favored land
of ours.
