BOYD FLESHERTON ONTARIO. la piibllhlied every Thurwiny at f l.OO jw.- annuii< if inid in advance, 41.r>c if not no |iaid EDITORIAL COMMENT The Whitney Uovernment at last appeari to be taking a stand on the qacitioaand trjiu,; to enforce its liqaor law£. An attempt is being tnade m a j^reat many Ontario towns and cities, a^peciallv, to compel the hotel keepers t ) obey the law. It is well known that the great majority of hotel keepers are inveterate law breakers, in that they sell booze T/heuever they ean, whether they have licensea or not. The sooner thry are shown that laws are lawH.and are meant to bo enforced the better it will bo for Ontario and for themjeivcs. In the meantime Ontario is enricliod by their fines which amount to no small sum. The woi St feature of the case is that the tines do not teach them to observe the laws, but to become more expert in breaking them. The mechanics of the C. P. It. re- pair shops have been indnlging in the luxury ot a itriku for about three weeks and yet no sign of a settlement. The company makes statomeiils that tlie strike is not affecting their busi,- iioss ill any serious manner. This course in his dreaming he could see no possible chance of defeat. In tvontof war between iliese two gieat nations the eiTect would be fell the world over and its results would bo just as dis- astrous in Canada as anywhere, for where there is scrapping to be done for llieir King the Canucks are never faraway. Let us hope that Kaiser Willlatu will not follow the cour&e some people love to prophesy, but show good sense and judgement, for any friction between the twp nations would be extremely disastrous to the commerce of the world and the two nations in particular. A Uttle Holiday The Advance man took a short pleasure trip into the wilds of Parry Sound dis- trict during the lias}, week in cf>!iipany with Mr. George Mitchell and Mr. John Wright of this iilnoe and Mr. Jos. Hodgmm of Brooklyn, Ont. It was Hoiiiethiiig of an exploring expedition, as none of the pnrty had boford been in the district visit«d. We had heard of a Inko where fuiliiion trout were plentiful and wo found the spot. It is a lake some three miles in length and of varyiiig widths with several very beautiful islands nestling on its bosoiii. It is the inottt beautiful lake wu have ever seen in that district, solucting from probably n hundred or more. The shores are low but rooky and covered to the water's odije with beautiful evergreen growth Tlie water of this lake is quite translucent and is evidently fed from springs at the iMittoin, as we could discover no inlet. It is well stocked with splendid salmon trout and block bass. Wo secured some of Ihith those varieties, and in a nearby lake caught a lar^o number of pike. For a short imting it was ideal, hut the largest snake nioasured three feet and Iho other two-aiid-a-haif feet in length, but the smaller one hud iniicli the Lirger nittle. Some twenty-five or thirty years ago a terrific forest fire burned over huni&ids of square miles in the Parry Sound district. This has grown up with a scriiliby growth, and there is a dancer of a re|)otition of the horror. Two i-ailways are nuw running through it and these are continually starting bush fires, some of which are of consideiable dimensions. The land is parched at the present time and covered with tinder, which only requires the passing spark to touch it into a blaze tliat might easily reach very costly proportions. The Ontario govern- ment has fire rangers up there, but their chief occuiMtion appears to be to sit around the isolated railway stations and wait for the latest newv. A settler up there cUims that they are practically useless, and that the paying of their salaries is a waste of public money.

Bruce Wa'ker, Commissioner of Iiumigration at Winni- pe)(, states that the farm Ub<ir congestion has been somewhat relieved at Moose Jaw and in southern Manitoba by distri butinn. Reports from Indian Head, Virden, Brandon and other points show that these tuwns are feeding r.!>«u* one hundred men each. The O. P. R. has engaged soni- ut the men to work at double tracking east oi WumipeK. ThroHhinif will likely bo general this week, and no more men arere<)uired from the eaMt. , , , timo at our disiHtsal was too limited, may be so or it may not, but for some j The lake is difficult of access, being some reason the trains on the Owen <Sbuud twelve miles fiom the C. P. R. and eight line have been late ever since the ' Htrike began. If tlio strikers aro re> e{iousible for this stale of affairs w« | would be much obliged if they would ! y;o back to work and be good. The probability of war bctwooif Eng- land and Uermaiiy has become a pop" ular thetpe for newspaper disoussiou, and the prevailing iroptession seems to Im) that the next five or six years will Hoe startling changes in the relation- ship of F, I {land and Germany.
