'What is more hideous than the death proces- sion struggling with the traffic of trade and pleasure in the crowded street? Why should not the body be carried quietly to the place of burial and be there met by the friends who are to be present at the interment ? Fashion drives the poor to what is sometimes to them ruinous expendi- ture. When you find a destitute wid- ow with a family of starving children and a long undertaker's bill, yoa can- not blame the poor woman who has paid, what she thought the last tribute of affection, but we may well blame the custom.

When we consider that the Domini- on of Canada comprises an area in round. numbers of 3,500.000 scpiare miles, extending from, east to west about 8,600 and from south to' north about 2,000 miles, we have the largest and. best Wheat producing area in the world. We have immense forests and our fisheries on the Atlantic and Paci- fic coast§ succeed in value those of any other country. Again as we consider that Canada forty times as big as Eng- land, Scotland and Ireland combined and sixteen times as large as the Ger- man Empire, with its twenty-seven provinces, we may at once conclude that we have a Dominion large enough to support 50,000,000 of a happy, .pros- perous and contented people, if pro- perly governed, Th,en let us all be pa- triots, show a good example to the young and rising generation, and thus win and hold the highest esteem of our fellow-citizens.—Orangeville Ban- West Zorra and.

Tap scaroor, BOOK RING. Ontario authorized a series of school :books iancl far seeing publishers ob- tained property rights in certain selec- tions which are included in this author. ized series. These copyrighted selec- tions ore worth little or nothing in themselves. Their -cadge is 'derived from the Government authorization, which make these copyrighted selec- tions integral parts of an authorized series of school books. The Govern- ment authorization gives value to these private copyrights, and the conjunc- tion of the authorization and the copy- • right effectually shuts out every pub. Esher who has 110 share in these copy- rights from the privilege of producing school books. The Government of this great province has allowed itself to be forced into the position of giving value to the copyright property of a few • vorcd publishers. No authorized School books can be produced without these copyrighted selections. Publishers who do not share in the ownership of these copyrights are therefore exclud- ed•from participation in the prodae- tion of authorized school books. The whole situation is discreditable to the • Ontario Government. When the Gov- ernment: authorizes the publication of a school book it should control the, eon - tents of that school book front cover to cover. The manipulation of private copyrights in authorized text books creates 1 sehool book ring jast as truly LS if the Grov ern men t formally eestriet- ed the publication of school books to two or three favorite firms, The boom of free trade in the production of school books is worth seeming, even if the Government has Lo withdraw its au- thorization of the presenb series and sist on having ;:ibsolute control of any sevies tvhich it Inn y authorize in the future, F.06'S GRANT, /Ile Maics'Y' Kioll Edward in a Me‘wioafc • g=g44111ff nepommends 'that Parliament Give Him Hall a million July 30.—In the Ifouse of Lords yesterday, Lord Salisbury, the Premier, read a message from King Edward, to the effect that jn con- sideration of the aniiiient services of Field Marshal Lord Roberts 'a ::4,3 Li til Africa, His Majesty ,-econimended that, Parliament emant him the •sum of a100,000 tory Lisbon, July 30.—A'despatch re- . , ceived here from Lorenzo Marquos, Portuguese East Africa, announced that a Doer command, accompanied by women and children, has entered Portuguese territoly near the LiM- popo River.
