Hut even the fafm laborers are beginning to net restive, and Chancellor Lloyd George says they are rlsht Though strike among the unorganized helps is not yet talked about, the fanners realize ns a future possibility. For In common with every other form of labor the farm workers of both eexes are affected by the nauion wlde unreat and discontent. There is reason In their dissatisfaction as their wages rarely go beyond the four dollars a week mark; their cot tagrs are often mean and wretched and the village life dull. Agriculturists are now talking of a wider extension of the use of milking machines, and If this comes about tho labor prrtblem In the villages Is likely becomo almost as embittered aa when machinery was Introduced into the weaving Industry In the place of hand looms. OFFERED BY (Continued from Tate 1.) Alderman Cameron, clmiinuin of tho Greater Vancouver Transportation committee, at the outset of the conference, expressed the hope that the premier would have some possible solution of the franchise question to offer.

He regretted that despite the dis DOHitlon of the committee to concede a number of valuable privileges in order to effn a consolidation, the negotiations up to tho present had proved quite fruitless. This was due to a great extent, to the fact that all proposals had first to be submitted to the London board by the local representatives of the company. Reference was made by Sir Klchnrd In replying the fart that it had been decided by the provincial government In view of the protests which had been made retarding granting perpetual franchises to the H. C. E.

K. in Hastings Townsite and I. 1 3ul, to Curtail the existing agreements by limiting them to 21 ea.rs. The street railway company had been notified of the order in council which had been passed In that regard, but no assent to the amended franchises had been forthcoming from the li. It.

The provincial government, to avoid resorting to stringent measures In order to make the company comply with the order in council, had endeavored to arrive at an amicable and friendly adjustment. Protests against the curtailment of the franchises had been made by the B. C. E. it being urged that it would seriously affect the financial standing of the company If the suggested changes were effected.

This subject had been discussed very fully and carefully while he was in London, the premier went on to say. Four conferences had been held with Mr. Horno Payne, and the head of the B. C. E.

R. had been given a plain intimation that the provincial government would pass special legislation to validate the curtailment of the franchises at the next session of the legislature unless the rtminny receded from the stand tt had taken In refusing to assent to the terms laid down by the government. After the various phases of the transportation question had been debated, Sir Richard suggested that a tentative arrangement might be entered into with the B. C. K.

R. In order to relieve the situation as it was at present, and particularly In regard to Point Grey. "Hid Mr. Home Payne," asked Aid. Cameron, "deign to admit that the city in offering to extend the franchise to 25 years was offering a very valuable concession?" Sir Richard replied that the fare question seemed to be one of the most vital issues in the proposed agreement.

Aid. Cameron thereupon pointed out that in other cities extensions of franchise were undoubtedly considered of paramount importance as In negotiations in Winnipeg a short time ago. the extension of the city's franchise for five years was estimated as worth $15,000,000. "The B. C.

E. R. has treated the extension suggestion as though It was quite unimportant," he added. The opinion of the premier was asked by Keave Weart as to the compromise proposed in lieu of a straight five cent fare for the entire area of Greater Vancouver for a six tickets for 25 cents rate. He stated that Burnaby was willing to endorse any reasonable proposition for a settlement of the franchise question.

The necessity for transportation facilities In his municipality was being keenly felt. The Joint committee had been placed in an unfortunate position by the attitude of the B. C. E. R.

in refusing to recede from the siand It had taken. He was afraid that unless a settlement of the difficulty was forthcoming soon Point Grey would have to enter Into an agreement and be saddled with a forty year franchise. Ho referred with regret to the fact that secession was being talked of by the north section of Burnaby on account of the lack of streetcar accommodation. It was suggested by Reeve Kerr, of South Vancouver, that the provincial authorities niiht be prepared to assist In negotiating with the B. C.

E. II. for an amalgamation of franchises. He him: elf as not so disappointed as some of the other deleau at the non success of tne premier's mission when In London. He was of the opinion some definite proposals should have been drafted by the transportation committee and that Sir Richard should have been asked to endeavor to arrive at some settlement when he visited England.

In reply to this tho first minister declared that, if he thought an adjustment could be arrived at by such means he would be prepared to go to London again to place the proposals before the London directors. That the suggested five cent fare with ticket privileges for the whole district was too much to expect the Btreet railway company to conccdo, was readily admitted by Aid. Baxter, who was of the opinion that a solution of the problem could be found If the present rate of fares within the city limits was continued for the present. The advisability of appointing a strong representative to conduct negotiations on behalf of the districts with the B. C.

K. R. was urged by Aid. McNeill as a possible way to effect a settlement. In view of the fact that the proposal to have a straight five cent fare for Greater Vancouver appeared to be the chief bone of contention, Sir Richard commented that ho could not see any way to arrive at a settlement until the question was solved.

The company had shown that it would not yield one lota in that respect. The matter, he went on to say, lay directly In the hands of the representatives of the city and the surrounding municipalities. Alderman Baxter called attention to the fact that the B. C. E.

R. last year practically agreed to a consolidation of street railway franchises on a 23 year extension basis when the Point Grey system was in operation and no legal steps had been taken to attack the validity of the Burnaby fran chise. It was an extraordinary thing he considered, that now the former had been declared Invalid by the courts and the Burnaby franchise was under a cloud that the company took such an arbitrary stand this year. "In seven years, when the B. C.

E. R. franchise with the city terminates," he continued, "the city will be in a position to drive a much better bargain than it can at the present time. Even if Point Grey gives In at the present juncture, the city may take CASTOR I A lor Infants and Children. The Kind You Have Always Bought Signature of ARD Can you afford to look old?
