The refsOn for the reent dismissal of Dr. Campbell. postofice inspector at London. has been discovered. The inspector did not take sufficient pains in consulting with certain small -fry political beelere in regard to the lay- ing out of rural mail routes in his division. fie appears to have enters trained the queer notion that he was a servant of the public and not of the aforesaid political heelers. The fortune amassed hy J. Pierpont Morgan is estimated at $910,001.000 to $300,000,000. it is said of him that he used wieldy the immense power of his kinglike position in the financial World, and that his life contributed much that was of real eel rice to humankind. Granting all this. it must still be held that the gathering in *ley man's hands of such titanic power is s monstrous wrong. Rather, the economic system under which such a thimm is possible is terribly at fault. It means that tbe heirs of r this man have a mortgage upon the earning. of millions of their fellow- men. ate! the obligation of the many to the few. instead of heing decreased ar.d finally cancelled, ICU according to present tendencies steadily iocreaae and become more and more ,.nervus. A.Dother ands most serious aspect of the matter is the incentive to the money -making idea which a life like that of Morgan gives. Nobody ever started out to make a fortune of three hundred millions ; but the prominence given to wealth in estimates of human .ucoess, and the possibility of tasking huge fortune. hy *methods that are not con.idere i disteputtahle, have en a11no•t irresistible tendency to get up false ideals in the minds of men. in- stead of judging the worth of a man by the pleasure which hie mammy gives, by the degree of culture which be has attained. by his sincerity and kindliness. by his ability to make a happy home, or plow a •treigbt furrow. or sail a boat. or Miro a good speech. we ark.

The Flowing Tide of Reform. London Advertiser. The cause of civil service reform is making headway. The House of Commons has jestifled the appointment of a convicted for'Rer W public office, and his release Prem prison in order to enable him to enter on his duties.' A Cabinet Minister promised pubUc positions to two perjurers after they had threatened to expose corrupt practises at his election. The Minister of labor has dismissed the postoffice inspector of Londor. dis- trict because the inspector was Dot sutflciently subservient to party henchmen in West. Elgin. Let the good work go on. Wait • While. Montreal Wittier% 'There is a great deal of useless and necessarily misleading talk going on about cures aln!ady wrought by Dr. Ftiedmann's vaccine. No one who knows anything of the nature of tub- erculosis will imagine its being exor- cised in a week. After six months we may hope to hear some judgment passed by the very responsible juries' of doctors which are sitting upon these cases in New York, Montreal and To- ronto, op the succeetees and defeats of the treatments. We should look for both. The only definite result so far is that one of the patients hes died. His was apparently a desperate case. Pa- tients seem. without exception, to feel better. That, at leant, is a wholesome condition. Feeling Netter goes a long w ay toward getting better, but it un- fortunately in the present case does mat eount for much as evidence. Salaries of Teachers. Wiod,or Record. The average male school teacher in the Ontatio public schools, after an average experieuce of twelve years, gets an average salary of $767 a year, according to the annual report of the Minister of Education for the past year. The average female teacher, after teaching fol over seven years, receives but $517. In the higee schools of Ontario, where more ability tied experience are required. the situation is only slightly better. The principals of high schools receive on an average only $1.670. while tbe average eatery of all high echos)! teachers is but $1.312. During the year there was an increase in salary of $i a week. The teaching profession is becoming better paid, but it still falls behind law and medicine as a remunerative field to enter. PORT ALBERT. WEDNESDAY, Mar. ''36th. PERSONAL Mz rr1oM.-Mire C. F.

Be was ootutpled with the largest affairs and oftentimes the strain put upon him had been intense mad prolonged. It appears that he suffered from no organic malady. but from a progressive nervous weakness. Mr. Morgan in the world of finance had been the greatest figure of the past and the present century.

Sometimes it had seemed that on him. on his strength his courage, his power to command, and hes loreeight all depend- ed.
