THURSDAY, JAN. 16th, 1919. GOOD ROADS CONTROVERSY The .proposed building of main high- wtys_paved with concrete or asphalt, through Ontario is exciting a good deal of controversy and discussion. In the building of such roads it is evident that complete justice cannot be done to all. H" -the roads are paid for out of provin- cial funds residents will contribute equally (in so far as they are taxed equally) to the construction and up -keep whether they live within a mile of the road or one hundred miles away from it. The farmer or the merchant at North Bay may be asked to contribute to a concrete road from Hamilton to Windsor, though they would benefit by it neither directly nor indirectly. Besides, cities and towns which would b3 injured by the building of such roads, by having traffic diverted from them, would still have to pay for the building and maintenance of the road. This ex- pliins th3 anxious rivalry between cities and towns to have the proposed roads pass through them. It would be well if all.the roads in the province could be made "good roads" in a summer; but that is manifestly ini- possible . The re -construction of the roads must necessarily extend over a considerable period, and a beginning must be made somewhere. If many sec- tions insist upon having their particular toad built first, nothing can be done. It is said that lama by which the paved roads will paws will be injured; that the roads will be so much occupied by automobiles that there will be no room for teams nor live stock. ,There is likely some ground for that apprehen- sion; but the difficulty can be overcome by building the road wide enough to ac commodate both teams and automobiles, and one part of the road might be for teams and the other for motor vehicles, and a stiff fine for the man who insists on driving where be ehoulA not be. It will not be long until more automobiles are owned by farmers than by city and town folk, and all will be alike interest ed in good roads. As to equalizing the payment for the roads that can be done only by levying a special tax upon property benefited by the. roads. The Singlet • xer would say that it presents no difficulty at all, for in as much as land along the improved road is benefited, up will go its value and up also should go its assessment, so that in proportion as the owner, is bene- fited by the road he will pay for it—just like two and two making four. And the. Singletaxer is' right. Adopt his method of taxation and the than at Barrie or North Bt.}, will not b,, con- cerned about the building of roads in Southern Ontario for he would tcontrib ,ute nothing to their cost Those whose hind st►ctlld be enhanced In value by the Killed would pay fot' thb toad, as they ought to do. 4 A WAY AROUND THE LAW • If the temperance legislation prohib- iting the sale of intoxicating' liquors in Ontario is to be kept from falling into disgrace changes will have to be made in that part of the law which permits ni dical doctors to prescribe whiskey or other strong drink for their patients. The great majority of doctors do not abuse their privilege of mailing whiskey prescriptigns; but here and their through. - out the country .are to be found men who readily prostitute their prose ion for the sake, of the few dollars they u make by helping thirsty ones to get liquor. , A,lfttle of this is being done to every town and city, do doubt, bat only in a few cases to such an extent as to become notorious. _ Down in Windsor a case developed - which has attracted' aitentisn to the law, and asuggest that something . in the way of animendinent must be made. Dr Gardner, of Windsor was fined $200 for mang iyprnper rise. of his docrorrs • diplomat' but liSocould tvell`a ford this as in one day he issued more than 200 prescriptions for whiskey at' one dollar each. In the month of December he issued 1,242 whiskey prescription, which -at a dollar a piece would make quite a nice month's income. What is more Dr. Gardner,,- according to the evidence- in court, issued no other orders' on the drug stores than whiskey orders. inspector Moussean, who prosecuted the doctor, stated that on one occasion when he visited the doctor's office the veranda was filled with "patients" and there was a dine of them out on the street. This must have been on the day when the doctor established a record by issuing 22.2' liquor prescriptions in one day. The case at Windsor is, merely an ex• aggeration of what is being done else where and suggests that some pretty stiff restriction must be put upon doc- tors. s THE CIVIL WAR IN GERMANY - The government forces of Germany appear to be making steady headway against the anarchists who, in the name of Socialism, seek to prevent,the estab-. iishment of a government which will protect property rights and permit bus- iness to go on in the usual way. In whatever other qualities they may ;have been lacking, those who have been in charge of affairs in Germany did not Adis want of business ability. They a:ways well calculated the fcrce which was necessary to accomplish the end aimed at—so many hien of a certain quality to do so much. In the present crisis the government did not rashly try to put down the red anarchists until it had selected froth the army encugh re- liable battalions to deal with the situat• ion. Battalions taken at random have turned in and helped the an sts, for there must be in the German army many thousands of men who favor the anarchists. Should the army prove to be very largely tainted that way, all would be lost for the party of law and order as it was in Russia. But battalions made up ot. nfticers and men from the better educated and business clams could be relied upon to fight the "Reds' as en thurlasfically as they did the French and the Reisisiins. It will be fortunate for the Allies and the world if the present government of Germany is able to suppress the opposit- ion, and to carry out the general election w loch it is arranging to bold on J 1:t That will give the Allies something sub- stantial to deal with, whereas, nhou' the government be overthrown, there would be nobodieto bargain with, and no one to sign a treaty of peace. There could be no collecting of indemnitifs irons Germany—for there would be no Germany • It is a curious fact that the defeat of Germany has brought about in 'Berlin conditions exactly similar to those which prevailed in Paris following the defeat of France in 1570. When Paris vests surrendered to the besieging Hermans, a lawless element in Paris refused to obey the government and seizing the government .buildings and the city endeavored to defy all authority, juet as the "Iteds" of Berlin would now do. ' It was then necessary for the government of . France to attack and capture Paris, and for several days a dreadful battle in which Frenchman fought Frenchman, raged through the city streets under the eyes of the Ger man army which had just reduced France to submission. And now it is the turn of Franca. A French army, just victorious over Ger- k1+oks t while Oerinalin fights Germat in the Streets bf Berlin. The government of France ealcceeded in putting down the "Reds" io 1871 and afterward, -held an election an the country elected a goyernnsent au horized to make a treaty with the G swans, just as the Germans will now elect a goveruwent to treat with the victorous Ashes 411, GOVERNMENT LIKELY TO HOLD ON There is- cousiderabie speculation as to how the ada will cion of p Union Government of Can- eather the approaching ses- rliaruent. Free Trade aanti- utent seems to be strong in the West, and protectionism is being assiduously and vigorously preached iii the East—or rather by representatives of the big manufacturing concerns of The East. It is quite evident that along thia line - will be the cleavage of opinion and on this line )parties will divide as soon as Union Government will break up.- - • The question is: will t t break up be ah the coming session later `( Mr. C ddar, one of the Western Liberals in the Union Government speaking to the 'Canadian :Club of Toronto, said that it wad' be a crime to bring on an election at the present time. Mr. Calder is doubtless a freetrader as well as a west- erner, and his statement may be taken to indicate that there is an understand- ing that the western liberal supporters of the government will not raise the free trade issue at the coining session of parliament. Even this unportant mat- ter will be held in abeyance until Can- ada shall dbe practically dcne with the war, the army demobilized and the men home. That certainly is the right and sess- ible'course to pursue. 'There should be no breoking up of the government, and no election until after the men who fought in the war are all home and able to take part in the election. THE READJUSTMENT It is said that thousands of men and women who, a short time ago, wet e earn • ing good pay, are now idle in the cities and large towns where the, munition business . flourished. Everybody knew that this was coming and that it was 'impossible to guard against it. - Unfor- tunately many have not saved . their money as they might have done during the period of high wages and abundant work. The "hard times" which now affects these idle Hien and women is the begin- ning of a wave which must pass wee the whole country, or, indeed, over the whole world - See ow it must -.spread. Th!se thousands were for the past three. years earning big wages and spending freely. They were baying clothing, shoss, fur- niture, chocolates and a thousand othr r things. AU this buying (so far as those idle hien and woolen are concerned) will now stop for a time. They will econ on.ize. They will buy fewer fancy things to eat; wear their shoes and cloth- ing longer, and they will put off buying the new furniture. This slackening ot- buying will affect every other industry in the country, throwing out of employ- ment clerks, stenographers ani work- men in every branch of business; and these again being forced to live less ex- travagently will themselves aggravate the condition. By ar d by there will be a readjust- nient. Work that was being held back "until the war is over," until prices of material come down an I labor a ould be cheaper, will be undertaken; the idle folk will be elnulnyed; they will start o buy ague, and life and husineas will go on as before the war. • Fl ywerdale —Monday, Jan. 13, Miss Mary B McCharles, of Lie -know, is spending a few days witli her friend, Mins Cassie McMurchy.

C. Findlay, is the general topic of conversation on the Paci fic Coast. The Prohibitionists are up'in arms against what they call the niisscsar riags of justice and .the failure of the Attorney cleneral's Department to push the matter to the limit, and the Wets and lukewarms are wearing a jovial "gold -you -so" attitude. Findlay was working for the niggardly salary of $203 a month as prohibition commissioner, but when 'be departed from the piths of rectitude be proved himself no small piker In his oflici tl capacity he had authority to impart liquor for sale in the government dis pensaries in Vancouver and Victoria. Either he or someone else csnceived the _brilliant idea of oto. ordearj,pj it and then diverting it avfay from these places `cf official sale. At any rate he ordered Gooderham & Warta rye by the carload' and Gad'- the consignment- delivered to an empty warehouse. It is the general opinion that several carload lots were so ordered and sold. The outbreak of Spanish Inffueuza a felt' months .ego created a tremendous demand for the hard stuff and holders `of medical prescriptions waited in line for hours in front of the government dis- pensary here. °There were rumors at the time that booze could be secured else- where in anyquantityat 16 00 a bottle, and there is no doubt that bootlegging on a big scale was -being carried. on. It is said that Findlay sold at least 400 cases of the last carload in the State of Washington. An overcharge on the part of the C.P.R. ' led to the detection of the scheme. This an.ount, about $46.00, was being for warded to the Attorney General's De- partment and this led to an investiga- tion. Findlay was notified of his dis missal pending a full investigation, and he at ouce heade.d for the border. He was arrested by a provincial constable at Biaine and broukht back here. • He appeared in police court and plead ed guilty to importing liquor illegally aid got off with of fine of $1,0J0. As his profits on one car known Inuit hive been many times that amount, tbe..cene.. sietinn aroused a great outcry Ai Soon as his case was disposed of, Findlay jumped on the Seattle boat bef ,re the local Hotelmen's Association—(of all folks)—gots busy and ,issued a warrant for "breach of the public trait." - This is not an extraditable offence and the ex= comtuissioner can snap his fingers. Attorney -G neral Farris is being se- verely arraigned by the Prohibitionists on his management cf the case. They point out that no restitution was demand- ed. If a man is found on the street with a bottle in bis pocket he is ouly fined $50 but loses the bottle as well The Prohibition newspaper has:even gone as far as to ask the Premier to dis- miss Mr. Farris, to which Mr. Oliver re- torted, -Nothing doing." The Prohibi- tionists say they want Findlay to divulge Always Had Headaches 4 Liver Was Torpid and Bilious Spells Brought Sick Headaches —Lost Much Time, But is Now Completely Cured. Here is convincing evidence that however much you may suffer from laver trouble and consequent bilious- ness there is cure in the use of Dr. Chase's Kidney -Liver Pills. Overeating 1s the most common cause of sluggish liver action. You lose your appetite, have distressing bilious spells. usually accompanied by headache and vomiting. the bowels become irregular, constipation and looseness alternating, digestion is up- set and you get irritable and down- hearted. No treatment so quickly awakens the action 'of the liver and bowels as Dr. Chase's Kidney -Liver Pills. For this reason this medicine Is wonder- fully popular and has ,enormous sales. Mr. Charles Rs Tait, Newtown, N.B., writes : "I was nearly always troubled with headaches, and would often have to stop work for a day or two. I lost many a night's sleep every month with bilious sick headaches, and although I tried doctors' medicines, and also many other patent medicines, It was without success. When I had these headaches I would vomit. and could keep nothing on my stomach. "I purchased a box of Dr. Chase's Kidney -Liver Pills from G. M. Fair- weather, druggist, of Sussex, N.B., and after' taking one box I was so much relieved that I continued to take them until I am now completely cured.
