EDITORIAL NOTES It is being accepted in London that the stock exehange will not be opened until a new year opens. This will no doubt, influence the New York and other exchanges on this continent. Probably also the delay is for the best all round. The world never experien2ed such a dislocation of its financial affairs as came in the early days of August last, and the longer time there is given to adjust affairs before the speculators can get a chance to complicatethem the less is the final loss likely to be. -Mon- treal Gazette. Succession duties paid to the Provin- cial Treasurer for the fiscal year just closed amounted to $1,287,633, as com- pared with $1,146,144 for the fiscal year of 1912-12, an increase of over $141,0o0. Scarcely any benefit has been received from the increased scale of duties im- posed by amendments made by the law at the last session of the House. Eigh- teen months are allowed in which settlemen,t can be made by estates, so the augmented revenue under the new scale will not show itself for another year. "When on a visit to Spain a few years ago," writes a correspondent, "I was much impressed -as what tourist is not? -by Burgos Cathedral, whose twin towers, with their clustering filigree pinnacles, stand silhouetted against the blue sky, surely the most delicate lace - work ever executed in stone. The guide informed us that during the Pen- iosular War the French had ensconced themselves in these same towers, and from this coign of vantage were shoot- ing down at the besieging English. But the English, fearful for the de- struction of the exquisite shelter of their enemy, refused to make an assault. This fact has come very prominently to my mind during the recent vandalism of the twentieth-century Huns. Our rough British soldiers of a hundred years ago made no pretension to culture, yet the mystery and inajesty of a thing of beauty threw over them a restrain- ing spell, while the so-called exponents and apostles of Teutonic culture have so belied their name that the very epithet German culture will through the ages Oe a symonym for all that is ferocious, barbaric, and iconoclastic." - British Weekly. SIR WILFRID LAURIER. Seventy-three years ago last Friday at St. Lin, a Quebec hamlet nestling in the shelter of Laurentians, there was born to Carolus Laurier and his wife, Marcelle Martineau, a son, NS ilfrid Laurier. Probably there is no one now living in the village who remembers the event. Probably no one at the tinae ever imagined that across the span of three score and 10 years the steadily growing personality and influ- ence of the obscure land -surveyor's son would dominate Canadian political dev- elopment as no other personality has ever done in the life of the Dominion. To -day. Sir Wilfrid Laurier stands recognized throughout the world as the greatest of all Canadians, as the most conspicuous statesman in Greater Brit- ain. For nearly half a century he has stood unsullied and unshamed in the fiercest light of party politics, a pride to all Canadians. After forty years' continuous membership in the House of Commons, after twenty-six years as leader of the Liberal partv, over fifteen of which were spent as Prime Minister of his country, he is still erect of bear- ing, there is still the wonted fire in his words, still the same keen, virile and undisputed leadership. He stands to- day the most dominant personality, as well as the most picturesque and most influential figure in the Dominion. Robert Sayer of Sault Ste. Marie, Ont., is under arrest, charged with high treason in ferrying Austrians BL htErAR[D acroas the border. The Dominion Government has taken up the London Treasury bills, amount- ing to £1,700,000, maturing yesterday, the last outstanding. Are You Ready to Defend Your Country?

Cleveland Denbow is here from the West, where he has been for several months. The local Red Cross Circle which has only been in existence a very short time, has been very busy, as is shown by the large shipment of the following goods they sent to the headquarters at London last week: It contained 72 pairs of socks, 21 pairs wristlets, 11 scarfs, 42 flannel shirts, 21 nightshirts, eight sleeping caps, six surgical shirts and two sheets. Mr. M. A. Taylor, who conducts the restaurant here, helped the Red Cross Circle considerably on Wednesday even- ing by giving an oyster supper to all those who cared to partake. The waiters were members of the circle. The proceeds Were all handed over to the circle. Mr. Taylor takes a great interest in this work, and his example will likely be followed by others, JAMESTOWN.
