OtJR OTTAWA LETTER.
''rom our own Corespondent.
Ottawa, March 10.
The unfortunate disturbance in Mont -
'seal last week furnished the text for a
•discussion which occupied the entire
asittiug of the House on Monday, thereby
:giving, prominence and importance to
the incident entirely out of proportion to
its real significance. But for the blame -
tu.atory reports of that day's proceedings
sent out by sensational correspondents
and cabled abroad, the affair might have
feuded where et began, and the incident
would have bceu forgotten in twenty-
four hours, but by putting up the mem-
'ber for North Bruce (Mr. McNeill) to
discuss the incident in the House, and
#ollowing his speech by a deliberate at-
tack by Mr. Foster, as leafier pro tem,
won the French-Canacliau section of the
community in the Metropolitan city, and
]particularly their representative in the
(Government, the Opposition too clearly
showed their hand, and added one more
toecasion to the many when they have
engaged in the traitorous and indefen-
sible occupation of setting race against
race and creed a uinst creed. •
AN UNEDIFYL'v0 SPECTACLE.
The standard of politics in this country
is not • improving, and already this ses-
sion there have been too many incidents
.loth in Parliament, and in the columns
of the party press, indicative of a.lament;
aide absence of courteous consideration
and mutual forbearance, without which
it is impossible to observe, the simplest.
amenities • of publie.ife, It is neither
],profitable nor edifying .to the country,
nor calculated to maintain the dignity of
the House in the eyes of. the people, to
3iear honorable members charging one
another with "breaking every com-
mandment in the Decalogue," with

aticaa is Inane that he is running away.

his 1lcnriut; which has become greatly
impaired of late years. But ag tin the
miserable innuendo. is thrown out, that
the ostensi),urpose of his going away
is but an excuse to enal:le Mina to be ab-
sent when 11ispresence in. the House
would be inconvenient to himself and -to
this Government. None 1(uow better
than those who aro responsible for these
suggestions that they have no founda-
tion in fact. Both these Ministers have
shown themselves more than equal to
the task of hooting all criticisms lev-
elled against them. Tho truth of the
matter is that the Opposition iu the
House and in the country, would be only
too delighted if they could get rid of two
members of the Government who have
proved themselves strong, capable, pro-
gressive and aggressive, to the discom-
fiture of their opponents, and the lasting
adv:anta ,e of the Dominion.
EIG lT 2XONTHS' BUSINESS.
The statement of revenue and expend-
iture for the eight months of the fiscal
year up to the end of February which
appears in Saturday's Canada Gazette,
bears evidence of the continued prosper-
ity of the country. It exceeds all pre-
vious records in the history of the Do-
minion. , The revenue shows as com-
pared withlast year, a gain of $2,993,869,
and the expenditure had grown during
the same period by $1,421,158, leaving a
net improvement of $1,572,211. As com-
h returns for 1898
the
pared t e§ ,
revenue of the eight mouths past has
shown an increase of seven and a -half
Millions. For' the month of February
alone, there has been a decrease in the
revenue of less.than $200,000, and an in-
crease in the expenditure of about the
same amount. But the expenditure on
capital account has been nearly three-
quarters of a million less, and would
have been less still, but for the fact that
the unprecendeuted calls upon the
militia department have trebled the
necessary expenditure there.
THE RAILWAYS AND THE PEOPLE.
"The railways, as the modern highways
of the nation, are so important to every
useful activity that their influence may
become more important than that of the
Government. They can impose import
taxation for the benefit of home indus-
tries, and the result as in the case of
similar taxation levied by the Govern-
ment is injurious to the general com-
munity. .They can impose exporttax-
ation to force the local manufacturer of•
various lines of raw material, thus fav-
oring certain industrial processes at the
expense of others. They can encourage
one lino of industry and discourage an-
other by a simple change•in the elassifi-
cation of freight, -and mining, smelting
and other indnstiies may be encouraged
or suppressed at will. They can force
the, export of wheat in the form of grain
or in the' form of $our, and can deter-
"°malting outrageous statements," with, mine' the point 'at which the grinding
*grovelling in the dirt," &e., and them must take place. They have•the power

whish goes to show the Urgent necessity
for a strong railway commission with
definite and sufficient power to -insist
upon the proper regulation of the policy
of the railways in the' interests of the
people. • �,

From the foregoing 'it will be seen
that there is a material difference in the
salaries of some of the offices. For in-
stance the revenue in Ciiutou is larger
tbau that of Seafortli, but the salary of
the latter is higher. The same thing
holds good .concerning Exeter and Brus-
sels, Auburn and. Walton, and others,
due doubtless to the nature of the work
at the respective offices, and not the sum
total.

sent, and the fact that further orders
have been sent to Canada is probably
the best means that could be taken to
show the appreciation of the way in
which orders were filled. Canadians
have been given an opportunity of work-
ing up an important trade with the
mother country in this respect and the
British authorities have apparently de-
cided that where there is an opportunity
of giving a trade preference in the mat-
ter of purchasing supplies Canada shall
lmve it. The importance of this will be
fully appreciated by Canadians, who
have lately seen that there are various
avenues of trade opened to them for
inoreasiug the shipments of goods from
the Dominion to Groat Britain.

' Woman's work is never done. From
early morn till late at night many a woman
toils on day after day, week after week, and
year after year, with no rest, no recreation,
and not even change of work, for it is the
same monotonous round over and over
again,
Little wonder that the nerves are shat-
tered, the system run down, and the body
racked by pains and aches. Little wonder
that the head aches, the digestive functions
are impaired, and the delicate organs
become irregular. Little wonder that beauty
fades, the skin becomes pale and sallow,
and the body thin,weak and worn out.
To correct these ailments and to renew the
vitality of the body a restorative is necessary,
and there is no greater restorative known to man
than Dr. Chase's Nerve Food. It is a new
wonder of medical science that gets down to the
foundation and builds up gradually but surely
until the whole system is revitalized and disease
becomes n thing unknown. .
Dr. Chase's Nerve Food is put up in pill form,
and if taken regularly according to directions
will positively and permanently cure the most
serious nervous disorders of men, women and
children. 5roc. a box at all dealers, or Edman -

Judge McDougall has given out judg-
ment iu the suit of Warwick Bros. &
Rutter against Simcoe county. The
plaintiffs sued for $119 for inserting ad-
vertisements of tax sales of land in the
Ontario Gazette at the instance of S. 3,
Sanford, the county treasurer, who sub-
sequently absconded. The county of
Simcoe refused to pay the account on
ground that it was not responsible, and,
Judge McDougall ruled in its favor, He
declares that in his conduct Of tax sales
the treasurer was not acting as an official
of the county, because tax sales as con-
ducted under the statute bring 110 belie -
fit to the county. His Honor pointed
out that a treasurer as a custodian of
funds entrusted to hiin, and creditors
must seek redress froth him.
