58$ invested in Capa- \u2018industry, or 31 per cent.\u2018of \u201cdie -totaï amount Go invested in the _ Doniinion.\u2018A substantial amount of this is invested in branch plants.Estimates made at the end of 1922 placed the number of United States firms \u2018which had established branch plants of their industries .in Canada at from 1,000 to 1,200, \u2018that is industries which have lo cated off-shoots of the parent houses in the Dominion to engage in the domestic trade and to advantageously carry on business with Canada's many and expanding export markets.The year 1923 promises to add substantially to these and there is evidence of a movement in pro- tress of more than usual energy, not 2 week passing but some new American industry is reported as expanding to include Dominion domestic and foreign markets in its scope.The reason is not far to seak.Whilst the movement is stim- .ulated by a greater extension of Ÿ the Kknowledfe of the advantages : such location brings in its wake, the advantages themselves are con- = tinually being extended and additions being made to the benefits to 3 be lish É M.rom _ Canadian, .\u2018estab: 4 4 + In rb, A \u201cthe spportinity of engaging in the Canadian domestic market under the most favorable conditions the principal \u201c inducement formerly held out to American manufacturers to locate in .Canada was the stategic position they would thus come to oc- for trading with all the countries of the British Empire with which\u2019 .35 per cent.of Canada\u2019s total trade is conducted.Practically all countries of the Empire have preferential tariff rates In force, affecting trade with Canada, and the few which have not yet such measures arranged are naturally predisposed to trade with British Empire countries and \u2018have such measures under consideration.Most readers of love stories In England are women over 30 years of age.Rousselle\u2019s Bakery THE HOME OF , CE CLEAN \"CLEAN BY (AR - SANIT ;

important feature was the delivery of the Budget Speech by Mr.Nicol.He reported a surplus of $1,444,365.for the fiscal year ending last June.This was not news to any one for the general state of finances had been announced some months ago.The condition of the finances of the Province are much better than can be said about those of the other Provinces.A more rational outlay of money has been the rule and in consequence the public debt, according to figures published some months ago was $1.03 per capita.The worst offender in the Dominion according to the table was British Columbia which has a debt of $8.57 per capita.On the other hand there is criticism of the increased expenditures of the province.The debt is annually increasing through capital borrowings and it now stands at nigh seventy millions.A great deal of this increase has been incurred during the past five years, and there is a limit to which it may go with safety.In connection with the Good Roads policy of the province $35,473.472.32 have been spent.À great deal of money has been expended in opening up new colonization areas and large amounts have been expended in protecting and developing water-sheds for some important rivers in the Province.With the colonization activities the majority of us in Southern Quebec are unacquainted.Those who have visited some of the regions were much impressed, and it has been obvious for some years that new regions would have to be opened up to relieve the older sections.The o'd parishes of the Province do not change their ways, and it is unfortunately true that the productiveness of some counties and parishes is annually decreasing.Noting the growth of the cities, the economic evil of permitting this decrease\u2014in territories where the productiveness must be maintained to keep food at reasonable prices\u2014is to be deplored.The development cf water power has proceeded rapidly in the Province.According to figures published by the Department of Interior.in 1900 Canada\u2019s development totalled 150,000 horse power.The present development in Quebec alone amounts to 1,073,883.To maintain this development to its full efficiency the water sheds of the streams must be kept up to a uniform volume.This has been difficult through the heavy cuttings of timber.and the province has spent many millions in storing basins.So on these two features the added capital bondings seem justified.On the other hand the Quebec administration is not as popular with the financiers and other influential groups as it was a few years ago.Apart from watching for its own political ends, the government should seek to get into closer harmony in order that the Province may prosper.The mentality of Quebec, is distinctly different from that of other provinces, it will passively permit one group of men to administer for years, and then suddenlv become active.Bitter political wrangles have marked the history of the past.and once begun the lengths to which these feuds go.excel those of any other Province in Canada.That would be unfortunate for Quebec.In his closing Mr.Nicol made a remark.which can be taken to heart by all of us.It was: We hear to-day certain men criticising the amount of revenue collected by the Government.On the other hand, the demands for expenditures made to the Treasurer by divers public bodies of the Province become more and more numerous from year to vear.We know well that many of the objects for which the demands for money are made, are worthy of our best attention.Nevertheless, if we were to agree to all the demands, it would be necessary to raise more money, We must therefore refuse and ask those who desire us to reduce the expenses to come to our aid.The Canadian Newspapers.No business in Canada is undergoing more changes than the newspaper business.In this our position is not unique, for the cable dispatches report the same conditions in Britain, and the press services frequently report similar conditions in the United States.The once powerful and independent dailies, which represented the will and brain of an individual owner, have one by one been picked up and now form a link in a chain under the direction of a stock company.The old time editor has passed away and in his place have come the syndicate, the features, the press services, etc., so that the same news is hash- «¢d up in the same manner in practically every large city in \u201c Canada.The supply of general and cable news thus supplied is undoubtedly far superior to the usages of thirty years ago, but the personal touch has been lost.The reason is easily found.Readers once supplied the revenue for the newspapers, now the advertisers have made the industry a large and profitable one.The financial investment in equipment for any daily paper now runs into the hundreds of thousands, so a judicious management of the business is required.The day when the nearest saloon was the editor's office, has passed forever.With the growth of the city daily, a new type has come into being, and that is the small city daily.Its foreign news is negligible, and as the daily events of the city will hardly fill all the pages, the field of the old rural weeklies is invaded.These are paying the price and to a zreat extent are being crushed out of existence in Canada.That their disappearance is a loss is to be questioned, for the ordinary weekly of only a few years back was neither a thing of beauty nor of local value Four pages printed in Toronto or some other city, made to fit any type of weekly in any province of Canada, results in a colorless product.The chief value of a local newspaper is the tocal touch and when this is missing, business does not flow to its doors.It is easy to be pessimistic, but a comparison of the papers of today with those of thirty years ago, shows fewer very bad ones, and perhaps fewer very good ones, but there is a far greater number of uniformly average ones.This is true in general, but for the business in the Province of Quebec, matters are still more complicated.The English papers have a field that has a limit and each year sees a few more of the English papers disappear.Most of those that remain are more than holding their own and the expansions made by some during the past year has been creditable; nevertheless if the English reading people of Quebec wish to keep these papers up increased rates must be soon paid.The cost of production has gone up, and the increased tax on paper is another small, but certain drain that the owners now absorb.The French weeklies have made a start by increasing their subscription rates to $2.00 and the English papers must soon follow.HOWICK There was not much interest taken in the recent election of Vil- luge Councillors, although Mr.À.(\u2018raig took the place of one of the retiring mombers of the board.The council us a rule consists of members who are opposed to the granting of liquor license.In spite of the fact that Howick

areas.Of the wood that has been cou- sumed in the pulp and paper industry on the continent about 47.000,000 cords have gone into ground-wood pulp, which is the main constituent of newsprint.Of this, ahout 32,000,000 cords have been used in the United States, and about 15,000,000 cords in Canada.The large sunplies of groundwood pulp have made pos- he tre © nans\u2018on of the newsprint industry on

glow upon the packed sidewalks when Kirby came out of the hotel and started uptown.He walked to the Wyndham, entered and slipped up the stairs of the room- ing-house unnoticed.From the third storey he ascended by a ladder to the flat roof.He knew exactly what he had come to investigate.From une of the windows of the fourth floor Paradox he had noticed the clothes-line which stretched across the Wyndham roof from one corner tu another.He went straight to one of the posts which supported the rope.He made a careful study of this, then walked to the other upright support and examined the knots which held the line fast there.« aad \u201cI'm some good little guesser,\u201d he murmured to himself as he turned back to the ladder and descended to the, floor below.He moved quietly along the corridor to the fire escape and stepped out up- un it.Then, very quickly and expertly, he coiled a rope which he took from a paper parcel that had been under his arm.At one end of the cull was a loop.He swung this lightly rouna his head once or twice to feel the weight of it.The rope snaked forward and up.Its loop dropped upon the stone abutment he had noticed when he had been examining the exteriors of the buildings with Cole Sanborn.It tightened when he gave a jerk.Kirby climbed over the railing and swung himself lightly out into space.A moment, and he was swaying beside the fire escape of the Paradox.He caught the iron rail and pulled himself to the platform.By chance the blind was down.There was no light within, but after his eyes had become used to the darkness he tried to take a squint at the room from the sides of the blind.The shade hung an inch or two from the window frame, so that by holding his eve close he could get more than a glimpse of the interior.He tapped gently on the glass.The lights inside flashed on.From one- viewpoint he could see almost half the room.He could go to the other side of the blind and see most of the other half.A man sat down in a chair close to the opposite wall, letting his hands fall on the arms.A girl stood in front of him and pointed a paper-knife at his head.The head of the man fell sideways.Kirby tapped on the again.He edged up stepped into the room.The young woman turned to him eagerly, à warm glow in her shell-pink cheeks.\u201cWell\u201d she inquired.\u201cWorked out fine, Rose,\u201d Kirby said.\u201cI could see the whole thing.\u201d \u201cStill, that don\u2019t prove anything,\u201d the other man put in.He belonged to the staff of the private detective agency with which Kirby was dealing.The Wyoming man smiled.\u201cIt proves my theory is possible.Knowing Olson, I'm willin' to gamble he didn\u2019t sit still on the fire escape an\u2019 let that drawn blind shut him off from what was goin\u2019 on inside.lle was one mighty interested observer.Now he must \u2018a\u2019 known there was a clothes line on the roof.From the street you can see a washin® hangin\u2019 out there any old time.In his place I'd 'a\u2019 hopped up to the roof an' got that line.Which is exactly what he did, I'll bet.The line had been tied to the posts with a lot of knots.He hadn't time to untie it.So he cut the rope.It's been spliced out since by a piece of rope of a different kind.\u201d \u201cHow do you know that\u2019s been done since?\u201d the detective asked \u201cA fair question,\u201d Kirby nodded.\u201cI don't.I'll ind out about that when 1 talk with the landlady of the Wynd- ham.If I'm right you can bet that cut rope has puzzled her some.She can\u2019t figure out why any one would cut her rope down and then leave it there.\u201d \u201cIf you can show me her rope was cut that night, I'll say you're right.the detective admitted.\u201cAnd if you are right, then the Swede must \u2018a\u2019 been right here when your uncle was killed.\u201d \u201cMay have been,\u201d Kirby corrected.\u201cWe haven't any authentic evidence vet as to exactly when my uncle ws killed.We're gettin\u2019 the time narrowed down.It was between 9.30 and 9.50.We know that.\u201d window pane the sash and at the © | va WAN Le RES a, met.They had private information about who was in the rooms from about 9.66 till 10.10.The cattleman correeted his statement.\u2018\u2018All right, say between 4.30 and 10.56.During that time dull muy have shot my uncle.Ur Ussuu may have opened the window whue my uncle lay there helpless, killed him, stepped outa the window again, an\u2019 slipped aown by the flie escape.All he'd have to do then would be to walk into the Wyndham, replace the rope on the roof, an\u2019 next mornin\u2019 leuve tor Dry Valley.\u201d \u2018tae detective nodded.\u2018If he cut Lhe 10pe.Lemme und oul 110 tue lundiuuy Whellies il Was cue tuat bIight.\u201d \u2018Goou.We'il

either step into that cab or into a patrol wagon.\u201d Their eyes met and fought.The shallow, protuberant ones wavered.\u2018\u2018Oh, well, it ain't worth chew- tn\u2019 the rag over.I reckon I'll go with you.\" He stepped Into the cab.At sight of Olson he showed both dismay and surprise.He had heard of the threats the Dry Valley man had been making.Was he starting on a journey the end of which would be summary vengeance?A glance at Lane's face reassured him.This young fellow would be no accomplice at murder.Yet the chill at his heart told him he was in for serious trouble.He tried to placate Olson with a smile and made a motion to offer his hand.The Scandinavian glared at him.The taxicab swung down Fourteenth, across the viaduct to Lake Place, and from it to Federal Boulevard.Hull moistened his lips with his tongue and broke the silence.\u201cWhere we goin?\u201d he asked at last.\u201cWhere we can ing overheard.\u201d talk without be- Kirby answered, The cab ran up the steep slope to Inapiration Point and stopped there.The men got out.\u201cCome back for us in half an hour,\u201d the cottleman told the driver.In front and below them lay the ; beautiful valley of Clear Creek.Nevond it were the foothills, and The detective slapped his thigh.| \u201cIt lies between Hull and the Swede.That's a cinch.\u201d \u201cI believe it does,\u2019 agreed Rose.Kirby made no comment.He seemed to be absorbed in specula- tons of his own.The detective was reasoning from a very partial knowledge of the facts.He knew pouting about the relations of James Cunningham to his uncle, nor even that the younger Cun- pinghams\u2014or at least one of them \u2014had been in his unele's apart- meut the evening of his death.He did not know that Rose had beep there.Wherefore his deductions, even though they had the benefit of being trained ones, were ot slight value in this case.\u201cWill you take the key back to the Chief of Police?\u201d Kirby asked him us they separated.\"Belle: not tell him who was with you or what we were doin\u2019.\u201d \u201cI'm liable to tell him a whole lot,\u201d the detective answered with heavy irony.\u201cI'm figurin\u2019 on run- in\u2019 down this murderer myself if anyone asks you.\u201d \u201cWish you luck,\u201c Kirby said with perfeot gravity.CHAPTER XXXYI A RIDE IN A TAX] Kirby was quite right when he said that Hull would go with them.He was on his way downtown when the taxi caught him at Fourteenth and Welton.Ths eat- tleman jumped out from the machine and touched the fat man on the arm as he was waddling past, \u201cWe want you, Hull,\u201d he said.A shadow of fear flitted over the shallow eyes of the land agent, .put he attempted at once to blus- : me for?\u201d ter.\u201cWho wants me?Whadjawant \u201c1 want you\u2014in that cab.The man who saw you in my unele's room the night he was killed is with me.You can either come with us now an\u2019 talk this thing over quietly or I'll hang on to you an call for a policeman.It's up to yon.Either way is agreeable to me.\u201d Heads of perspiration broke out on the fat man\u2019s forehead.He dragged from his deft hip pocket the familiar bandanna handkerchief.With it he dabbed softly at his mottled face.There was à faint, a very faint note of defiance in his voice as he answered.+1 dunno as I've got any call to go with you.I wasn't in Cunningham's rooms.You can\u2019t touch me \u2014can't prove a thing on me.\u201d \u201cIt won't cost you anything to make sure of that,\u201d Kirby Suggested in his low, even tones.\u201cI'm payin\u2019 for the ride.\u201d \u201cIf you got anything to say to me.right here's a good place to onload it.\u201d The man\u2019s will was wobbling.The cattleman could see

the line of the Front Range stretching from Pike's Peak at the south up to the Wyoming line.Trey\u2019's and Long's and Mount Evans stood out like giant sentinels in the clear sunshine.Hull looked across the valley nervansly and brought his eyes all about?Whadjawant?\u2018I know now why you lied at the inquest about the time you saw me on the night my uncle was killed,\u201d Kirby told him.\u201cl didn't lie.Maybe { was mistaken.Any man\u2019s liable to make a mistake.\" \u201cYou didn't make a mistake.You deliberately twisted your story so a.to get me into my unele\u2019s anartment forty minutes or 0 earlier than I was.Your reason was a good one.If I was in his rooms at the time he was shot, that let you out completely.So you tried to lie me into the death cell at Canon City.\u201d Hull's bandanna was busy.\u201cNothin\u2019 like that.I wouddn't play no sdch trick on any man.No, sir.\u2019 \u201cYou wouldn't, but you did.Don\u2019t stall, Hull.We've got you right.\u201d The rancher from Dry Valley broke in venomously.\u201cYou bet we have, you rotten crook.I'll pay you back proper for that deal you an\u2019 Cunningham slipped over on me, I'm gonna pu.a

teetered for a moment on the balls of his feet, then sank Hmply to the cement bench in front of him.He \u2018ried to gasp out a denial, but the words would not come.In his throdt there was only a dry rattle.He heard, as from a tance, Lane's voice him.\u201cWe've got it on you, Hull Come through an\u2019 come clean,\" \u2018\u2014-I\u2014I swear to God I didn\u2019t do it\u2014didn\u2019't kill

spite of the fact that his mind had at times moved toward ils cousin James as the murderer.Kirby experienced a shock at this accusation.He happened to glance at Olson, perhaps to see the effect of it upon him.The effect was slight, but it startled Kirby.For just an Instant the Dry Vallev farmer's eyes told the truth\u2014shouted {it as plainly as words could have done.He had expected that answer from Hull.He hud expected it becuuse he, too, had reason to believe it the truth.Then the lids narrowed, and the man's lip lifted in a sneer of rejecticn.He was covering um.\u201cPretty mea~ up to you to find some one else to pass the buck to, ain't it?\u201d he taunted.\u201cSuppose you te'l us the whole \u201cnny, Hull,\u201d the Wyoming man said.; The fat man had one last flare of resistance.\u2018Olson here says he seen me crack Cunningham with the butt of my gun.How did he see me?Where does he claim he was when he seen it?\u201d \u201c1 was standin\u2019 on the fire escape of the Wyndham across the alley\u2014about ten or fifteen feet away.I heard every word that was said by Cunningham and yore wife.Oh, I've got you good.Hull threw up the sponge.He was caught and realized it.His only chance now was to make a clean breast of what he knew.\u201cWhere shall 1 begin?\u201d he asked weakly, his voice quavering.\u201cAt the beginning.We've got plenty of time,\u201d Kirby renlied.\u201cWell, you know how yore uncle beat me in that Dry Valley scheme of his.First place, I didn't know he couldn't get water enough.If he give the farmers a crooked deal, I hadn't » thing to do with that.When 1 talked up the idea to them I was actin in good faith.\u201d \u201cLie number one,\u201d interrupted Olson bittenly.\u201cHadn't we better let him tell his story in his own way?\" Kirby suggested.\u201cIf we don't start any arguments he ain\u2019t so liable to get mixed up in his facts.\u201d \u201cBy my way of flgurin\u2019 he owed me ahout four to six thousand dollars .e wouldn't pay,\u2019 Hy1l went on.\u201cI tried to get him to see it right, thinkin\u2019 at first he was just a contestant.RET It is a contest of skill.bull-headed.But pretty soon I got wise to it that he plain intended to do me.O' coursa I wasn\u2019t goin\u2019 to stand for that, an\u2019 I told him 80.\" \u201cWhat do you mean say you weren't goin\u2019 to tand for it- My uncle told a witness that you said you\u2019d give him two days, then you'd come at him with a gun.\u201d when you The fat man mopped a perspiring face with his bandanna.His eyes dodged.\u201cMaybe I told him s0.I

exactly throw me down, I kinda slinped.If I'd been expectin\u2019 trouble would I have let Mrs.Hull go up to lis rooms with me?\" Kirby had his own view on that point, but he did not express it.He rather thought that Mrs.Hull had driven her husband umstairs snd had gone along to see that lhe stood to his guns.Once In the pres- cence of Cunningham, she had token the bit in her own teeth, driven to it by temper.This was his guess.Wrong.\u201cBut I knew how violent he was,\u201d the fat man went on.\u201cSo I slipped my six-gun into my pocket before we started.\u201d \u201cWhat kind of a
