THURSDAY JULY 18 1907 NOTE AND COMMENTS After months of investigation and laborious examination of all the com- plex details involved in a Iadical re- vision of E tstern Canada freight rates, the board of railway commissioners has preinulgated an order which will have an important and far-reaching effect •,r, the commerce of the Domin- ion east of the great lakes. The order remedies the long-standing complaint of Ont.ttio and Eastern Canada ship• pers that the railways discriminate in favor of through traffic from the 1'n - iced States to Eastern Canada points as compared with traffic originating on this side of the boundary, and puts into effect the principle of uniform rates for equal distances. As a result there will he a marked reduction of freight rates to the east from practic- ally all points in Western Ontario, the exist inti a nfair discrimination will be done away with, and shippers and the public generally will greatly benefit. At present. the first class rate from Windsor to Montreal is 70 cents a hundred pounds in the winter and fG) cents in summer. The new basis makes a lower rate than either' of these, placing it at 51.4 cents all the year round. Zion Miss Culbert of Forest is the guest of her mush), M1ss Etta Whiteford.-- Airs. G.
