About Vaccination

There is considerable ill feeling
among certain classes occasioned
by the provincial orders for vac-
cination throughout the province.
There should not be that objec-
tion to a government order which
is a precautionary one, The
resentment against vaccination
shows a decided lack of confid-

ence in the provincial authorities
and at no timeis that a healthy
sign, So faras we can learn the
objection in this part of the pro-
vince is not so much to the in-
convenience caused by a sore arm
as it isa question of the neces-

sity for the precaution at this
time. Smallpox started in Van-
couver and there is a feeling that
the rest of the province is being
penalized to ameliorate the hurt
feelings of Vancouver. Whether
the feeling is right or wrong, it
does exist,~and a splendid oppor-
tunity is available for the provin-
cial authorities to do some educa-
tional work. There is no doubt
but that vaccination is good, and
there is no reason what the pro-
vincial authorities should not take
the public into their confidence.

Has Fallen Down

Premier King is still flounder-
ing about for a battle ery so he
can go to the country this year.
So far he has found nothing that
‘might appeal to the Dominion.
His budget has been torn to bits
and shown to be one of the weak-
est.and most unsatisfactory since
confederation. The. tax payer
gets no relief and the debt bur-

‘| Vancouver and that free travel

den continues to be increased by
many millions annually, The
King government has failed in
all the essentials of good povern-
ment.. The people of Canada are
entitlad to something® better.

Word came through Thursday
that the United States had lifted
the smallpox restrictions against

between that city and American’
cities had been resumed. Van-|
couver grabs at anything in the
way .of publicity, bnt they step-
ped on their own toes when they
broadcasted their smallpox.
