EXPANSION' OP BRITISH COLUM
BIA
The premier, Sir Richard McBrldeJ
and the attorney-general, the Hon.
V.'. J. Bowser, of British Columbia,
are at variance with -regard to the |
question of further employment of \
provincial credit in aid of railroad !
construction, and there Is a possi-1
bility that this disagreement may
leua to a serious breach in the con- ,
sensitive ranks. Sir Richard has
ioug favored strongly a policy of de-1
velopinent and Mr. bowser has until j
recently, been in thorougu acco.-u
with him. This policy has had the
v.u-rn support of the British Colum
bian public. Situated us the
p.-oviuce is. In a quarter of the con
tinent that has only begun to feel j
the spur of enterprise, the impetus !
o£ pioneer achievement, with Wash
ington, Oregon, Idaho and Montana
so the south, with Yukon and Alas
ka to the north and northwest, wiUi
possibilities undreamed of a genera
tion ago unfolding on every side, the
British Columbians have been in re
cent years, as they are today, as con
lident ot the future as were the I
transmittsisBippisns of the seventies
and eighties And they have been
lvtnking on the future. What is
more, they have lost nothing of thei
faith in the future because of a
<!>?pressiou in the present that has
no real relation to British Colum
bia or to the Pacific Northwest.
British Columbia's credit has been
pledged for some time to Canadian
Northern railroad bond isiue^
amounting approximately to $50,- i
ftOo.OOO. A proposal, favored by
ih* premier, to advance $7,000,000
by way of a loan to the Pacific I
<Jreat Kastern railroad, now in pro
c--3s of construction from Vancouver
to Ft George, is the' cause of the
split in the government and in the
party. Those in dissent, headed by
Attorney-General Bowser, declare
sfiat tl»*« x-rovince is going into
ruilway development beyond it3
d«*pth. The premier and his sup
porters maintain that the resources
of the province have scarcely beea
scratched, that its obligations are
infinitesimal compared with 1?3
United States of Europe Would Make For
World's Peace and Progress
By JEAN FINOT. French Writer
AS it is impossible to found "the United States of Europe," we must
content ourselves with bringing about the partial union of its
most influential members. From this point of view the Anglo
French union, which bv force of circumstances would be extended to
heroic Belgium. TO THE IMMENSE EMPIRE OF THE CZARS,
EVEN" TO ITALY AND ALL NEUTRAL LANDS. LOOMS UP
FYEN NOW AS THE HARBINGER OF PEACE AND nEALTH
!TI. I'ROr.RKSS FOR THE WORLD.
THIS UNION. IN THE NAME Or HUMANITY AND FOR THE PRO
TECTION OF ITS FUTURE. WOULD 8E A GUARANTEE TO ALL THE
WORLD. A MENACE TO NOBODY.
Tim* the idea of "the United States of Europe," which still makes in
fe!!ijient people -mile, by passing through the gradual stage of develop
ment represented by the union ot' the allies—its normal starting point—
svill increase under their auspices until it becomes a postulate of the in
.eruational life of tomorrow.

resources, developed and undevel
oped, and that it would be calami
tous to pursue at this time a policy
caluculated to dishearten public and
P'ivate enterprise, and to arrest
natural expansion.
The United btates is familiar with
the complaint o£ overuullaing, ove.
ex;ansion. The entire west has
beeu admonished, cautioned, warn
ed by tne Kast against giving too
much rein to its energies. The east ot
Canada is today admonishing, cau
tioning, warning British Columbia
along the old familiar lines. Tne
fact is, however, British Columbia l->
doing precisely w.hat thinking people
througnout the two nations aie
wishing all the provinces and
states would do. Nobody ques
tions the character of the improve
ments the province is makiug. Ev
erybody admits, must admit, that
the improvements must bo made if
British Columbia would be prepared
for the expansion that the growth
cf the entire Pvific Northwest will
iorce upon it tomorrow, next day or
the day after. And thoughtful peo
ole realize that it is better to do
quickly that which in any event
must be done for the province
inevitably. Not a mile will be add
ed, they know, to the transporta
tion facilities of British Columbia
tnat will not Increase its debt-bear
ing and debt-paying ability. Not
a mile will be added that will not
enhance to some degree the value
of every square foot ana every acre
of land now open or to be opened in
the province to the home-seeker
and home-maker.
It is refreshing and encouraging
to find British Columbia fighting
back depression with enterprise, the
most potent weapon it can use un
der the circumstances. If it is
going into debt, its debts will not
be paid in the dull times that are
upon Canada now, but in the good
times that arc coming. Because
the province has not permitted its
•jnergies to flag or its courage to
fall in the period of business re
cession, but, on the contrary, has
betrn steadied and impelled by
faith in itself. It will be all the
better prepared for the. return of
prosperity, and it will not have im
paired its credit by multiplying its
asst-ts.—C. S. Monitor.

After reading the public state
ment of this fellow-sufferer given
below, you must come to this
conclusion: A remedy which prov
ed so beneficial years ago, with the
kidneys can naturally be expected to
perform the same work in similar
cases. Read this:
Mrs. L. E. Erickson, 21 Second
St., Astoria, Ore., says: "About
three years ago I began to have
trouble with my kidneys. I went
from bad to worse aud about three
mouths ago my back began to
trouble me. It ached awfully and
was very sore. My head ached con
stantly and I was right down sick.
I knew I had to do something, and
reading that Doau'.? Kidney Pills
had helped others so much, I got
some. Four boxos Lenefited me
wonderfully.'"
