As far as the printing contract is con
earned, the introdaotion of machinery
In the last few years makes iE quite
possible that this saving will be effected,
bat if a saving is effected it will be due
to this fact, and not to any special bun -
nese acumen on the part of the Govern-
ment, for no matter what party might
be in power, this reduction in the con-
tract price would quite probably have
boon effeoted.
In the in tier of the school book 'con-
tract, we have already referred to the
injustice that has been done the legit-
imate pnblisning trade and to the local
retail trade as well throngh giving tints
contract to a departmental store eon -
cern for advertising purposes. The ab-
surdity of the big saving in money is
however, made amply clear by the static-
tient facts published in the report of the
Miuister of Education. That report
shows that the old school readers at the
highest retail price at which they were
marked (and they were usually sold at
less than the marked figure) could be
placed in the hands of every pupil in the
public and Roman Catholic Separate
Schools at a Dost of a Iittle over $98,000.
To say then that a saving of $50,000 a
year is to be made on this amount is too
ridiculous.
We are all anxious that the Govern-
ment and the Province should get the
very moat for their money, and for any
real saving the Government may make
the people will give them due oredit.
But this continuous oheering over small
savings only make them appear more
ridionlons and will create the impression
in the public mind that it is done for the
purpose of drawing public attention
from greater things less favorable,
While, perhaps to some, the national
debt may seem appalling, it is after all
a trifling matter. The debt of many
railway oorporatione have increased to
o greater extent within the past decade,
while the increased resources of such
companies are not to be compared with
the enormous riches the development of
our country is bringing about. Yet the
annual cost to Canada of this inestim.
able increase in onr national resources
since Confederation is only a matter of
$5,000,000 -Toronto Saturday Night.
The history of the United States
shows how easy it is to fasten Ding-
Ieyism upon the country, and how dif-
ficult it is to get rid of the burden. The
lesson for Canada is to call a halt; to
resist every effort to increase taxation,
and to take vigorone measures to sup-
press the combines which have grown
up under our tariff. But strange to say,
we have journals here which, in the face
of the exposure of the abuses of the
American tariff, and of the impudence
of its champions, declare that we ought
to follow the Amerioan example, and
put our heads in the noose from which
our neighbors are vainly struggling to
extricate themselves. The American
people who are suffering from tariff
oppression are described as our enemies,
with whom we should engage in a tariff
war. Such a war would be fine sport
for the privileged classes on both sides
of the border, but it would be a disas-
trous for the people whom they would
egg on to fight. -Toronto Star.
PRINTING AND SCHOOL BOOKS.
The Whitney Government has been
doing considerable crowing on the great
saving it has effected on the new print-
ing oontraet and the contract for school
.ebooks. The Toronto Naive, which oan
now be styled as a Conservative paper,
has this to say : -
"The Whitney Government has made
a printing contract which will save the
Province $100,000 in five yearn. The
saving in public school readers approxi-
mates to $50,000 a year. The Adminis-
tration is setting a standard in econom-
ical and efficient government, which
sooner or later must compel imitation
at Ottawa, and at some other Provincial
oaptrals, which thug in the course of
For Women Who

Because of lingering weakness and
nervous derangements there is new
hope end cure.
If your system is weak and run
down, your blood thin and watery and
your nervous system exhausted choose
a treatment such as Dr. Chasc's Nerve
Food, whieh Itas never been equaled as
a means of building up health, strength
and vigor.
That Dr. Chase's Nerve Food is par-
ticularly successful in the cure of ail-
ments and derangements from which
women suffer most is attested by such
letters as this from Mrs. D. D. Burger,
Heather Brae, Alta., who writes:
"Mrs. Armstrong, my niece, had great
weakness, heart trouble and indigestion.
