JOHN RANSFORO HAS A NIIiW PROPOSITION FOR GOOERIOII. Will Establish a Modern Salt Factory bio Return for Concessions from the Town -Board of Trade 1s Favor- able and Proposition Goes Before Town Council at Its Meeting on Friday. The revival of the Gait iodustry- In Goderlcb to some degree of its former magnitude may be the result of a proposition made yesterday at a special meeting of the council of the Board of Trade. Soule time ago Mr. Jobo Ransford of Clinton, who operator a salt well in Oudericb in addition to his business at Clinton, proposed to mate an addition to hi. plant here with some financial assistance from the nonan. The town was not in • position to go into the schewe along the lines proposed by Mr. Ranafotd, and .ince that time he has been •bin to end other ttnauctal backing and he now comet to the town with • much modified pt- po•i- Lion, which when explained to the Board of Trade yesterday met with In- stant endorsat tun. In abort, Mr. Ransford asks the town for exemption from laxation (except school lager), free electric light, free water and free power to the amount of ten horsepower, alI for the period of ten years, In return for these concessions, he offers to put In • plant for the manufacture of floe ..It by the modern vacuum process, retaining his present plant for the making of the coarser grades. kite yearly payroll would be increased , [roar $8,000 to $21,O110, nod shipment of .alt from Ws manufactory would average four cars a day. The proposi- tion was discussed and met with gen- eral favor. and • committee was appointed to wait upon the town council at its meeting tomorrow even- ing to urge favorable astioo hy that body. If the council should view the project favorably, • bylaw will be sub- mitted to the people it as early date. Ooe of the points brought out is the BiG Line of B.C. and N.B.

It u only in recent aures that we. as Canadians. ate coming to realize the possibilities of becomiog a great nation as • coustrtuent pat t of the great- est Empire that the world has ever seen. We have been .ung of our vast extent of territory and our great wealth, especially in the direction of our immense natural resources, but these only suggest the real oppor- tunities of developtuent that lie before us. One of our most important concerns is to lift our political status to a higher level. We are too apt to look at the great public questions of the day front a narrow partisan standpoint, instead of considering them on their merits. Our atracbwent to parties is. to a very large extent, affected by cousideratious of heredity and euviroowent, and there is apt to be lees of real ptiueiple and conviction in it than we iwagioe. During the past few months while the war bas been in progreee we have had lees political bickering thin usual. both in and out of Parliament, and this, to many of us, bits seemed w afford a certain relief. Theie is a tendency, however. through the influence of Canadian Clubs and other organizations, to the development of • greater independence in our attitude to public questions. This will noun demand the more serious consideration of our political leaders, and will doubtless do something to lessen the corruption which we often deplore. We have • great opportunity alierin the cotumetclal realm. Now that the leading place taken by Germany is lost, for a time at least, there in a great chalice for us to step into the breech. The puieha.e of "made -in - Canada" goods should be encouraged, but no attempt must be made to take any undue advantage of this. The article* must be of the highest worth. must be reasonable in price, and must be well advertised. The matter of business ethics is also of the highest importance. The idea that • husioese man cannot be conspicuously successful and at the same time be thoroughly honest u very prevalent. The following quota- tions represent the opinion of several authors who have recently written books that ate being widely read: "Bushiest' Is now intrinsically evil." "There is no such thing es an ethical bargain." "There ate no honest to buy or sell." "Every .ucceesful man is an extortioner." "The business man who is not willing to be • wolf cannot remain in his busi- ness." But these charges are met by Professor Peabody of Harvard Uni- versity in the following terms: 'The vast majority of transactions in modern !wetness are made on credit. If it were not the general practice of business men w tell the truth and keep their contracts the entire fabric of modern trade would crumble In • night. Erten in that centre of popular . reproach, the stock market. negotiations involving great strove of money are ratified by a word or sign. In short, the foundation of modern busi- ness is business h000r. For one man who succeeds in business by luck or fraud a thousand owe their etandiog in the business world to integrity and incorruptibility." Canadians have a good opportunity of laying emphasis on these highest ideals. Young men from this country are in great favor with United States employers because of the reputation they have gained for honesty. requiring our earnest attention is that of our social wel- fare. It will pay us to do all we can to avoid the slum conditions which bare proved so disastrous in the large cities of other countries, before these areas have developed to any considerable extent. We have also the race question, and the problem of immigration. In recent year. those who have been i from other shores in proportion to our population bees been far more gimerous than the United States ever experienced. It is said that, already tete Bible is sold in Canada to over one hundred leagues... M leads to m D044=, to bit �asei W riduoatip,n.

In our own Western Oukario University at London we are just nowt vigorously pushing a "forward movemeoL' There has been a great strengthening of the faculties and improvement of the library, laboratory equipment., etc. The addition of up-to-date apparatus to the medicnl lahorawries pub us in the way of favorable comparison with other medical Reboots, as lar aa the essential requirements are concerned. Several crew ecbulasvhips have been established, and otheri will be welcomed. Our alto is to be in all re- specte in the front tank. From these considerations it is evident that we ought to look at all these political, commercial and social quest ions from the bro de.t poedble view. Our interest@ are clo.ely bound up with one another. The welfare of one person or community is favorable to the success of others, while the misfortune of one tends to the digester of other'. It is important. too, that we emphasize in our naliot.al AKair.tbe wait ion of right.eousnees and justice. Our hope for suocers io the present war is re much based on the justice of our cause as upon the strength of our slimy and navy. Whatever may be our prospect of • rapidly increasing population rivalling that of much older countries, and whatever wry be the likelihood of our developing captains of finance, whose fortunes .hall be equal to those of • Rockefeller, a Carnegie or & Rothschild, it w at least within our power to reach • place of great eminence in these otter matters, if we ate willing to meet the conditions. Moreover. there is no more important avenue through which we can work for these high ideals than the Cana- dian Clubs, which are fire :nom political hia+r, untrammelled hy eectarisn prejudice, and united on the broadest pos.ihle pi inciplee of progress, free- dom and brotherhood.
