THIAY ept 8th, 1892,
4 GOOD SHO jrnYO,
;IVe oftea beer through the pessi-
anletie waillness.of .the Grit press in
Toronto, and elsewhere,. that Canada
is going to the dogs, andthat our only
hope of prosperity is to attach oareetv7
-es to "the Continent (sic!) to which we
beloug." 'One gets deed of this lege
brioue so1o, more especially in the
heated term when people are disposed
to say to the blue rein apostles, "Give
as a rest 1" It is refreshing, howeyer,
to catch an easterly breeze, from the
capital assuring us that Canada , still
holds on the eye.n tenor of her wav,and
that so far from repeating the quond-
am cry of delieits -which was a pecul-
iarity of the Grit regime -we are hope-
fully encouraged from time to time by
a satisfactory surplus, and that in the
face of a remission last year of Three.
Million Dollars on sugar to the people's
credit. This certainly was a sweet
morsel of comfort in the midst of Grit
lamentations, as le practically amounts
(so far as it goes) simply to taxation
for revenue purpose's According to
the latest returns furnished by the Fi-
nance Department, the revenue ex.
ceeded expenditure by abent 6275,000
for the year ending June 30th; ;led
while this amount does not come up to
the surplus of the last three or four
years, owing doubtless to the dropping
off of the sugar duties -thus giving to
the poor man a free breakfast, seeing
that his tea, coffee and sugar are all
free of taxation -the returns are emi-
nently satisfactory as showing the bal-
ance as always on the right side.There
is even a better showing from the fi-
nancial returns for the month of July,
-the first month uf the current fiscal
year -which yields a surplus of con
siderably over half a million dollars,
It is satisfactory to know from good
authority that Canada's Unlit:lel po-
sition is beinz better understood hi the
Motherland, Sir Donald Smith, of
Montreal, who has just returned from
England, reports that "there is an
ever-growing interest on the other side
in Canadian affairs." We also observe
that the famous author and jourealist
Sir Edwin Arnold, who bas lately been
"doing" our North West, speaks in
the highest terms of this 'land so proli-
fic in possibilities," He ventures the
opinion that, "in the course of another
ten or fifteen years, Manitoba and the
Northwest should have a population of
Twenty Millions." As to . the crops,
and "your great wheat areas, they
have astonished me," he says. Facts
like these, coming from so disieteres&.
a quarter, should encourage Canadians
to press forward towards the mark of
a great national future.
MAKES TRANSPORATIO A- DEAR
If Canada will be true, to herself the
"retaliation" of Presideut Harrison
evil/ do her no harm. She owns the
Welland canal, she owns the St. Law-
rence canals; the channel at the Lime
Kilns in the Detroit river is wholly
within Canadian territory; and some
time next year a canal at the Sault
will complete the navigable channel
fai Canadian territory from the head of
Luke Superior to the Atlantic ocean.
This channel is now the cheapest route
af trriffic between the great gtain
growing regions of the west and the,
European market. -When the St. La iv-
rence canals shall be completed it will
be cheaper than it newels by perhaps 2
cents a bushel,
Canada has paid an enormoes sum
of money to construct these cauals
Needy fifty millions of dollars have
been expended on this chain of canals
alone; and fully sixty millions will be
spent before the fourteen foot channel
is completed from Lek° Superior to the
sea.
Very moderate tolls are charged for
the rise of these great works. Not
only do the tolls not pay any interest
on the cost of the canals; they do riot
oven meet current expenditure for
.their operation,
Canada practically says to the farm)
,er in the western states: "We have
enteracted canals at cuormous ex
"tense. We collect tolls on the grain
.at the rate of 20 cents a ton, But we
will permit yone grain intended for
texport to pass at 2 cents a ton."
Here President Harrison Steps in
end Faye: "Yeti shall not permit this
grain to pass your eanele at 2 cents a
ton. You insist cherge „the tun 20
tents, because our railway, lines can -
net it the traffic, if yea perinit the
grails to be carriet se eheeply."
The farmere of the weetern states
ero mare deeply intereeted in this than
the Canadian government. ,Othnada
offers them eheap transporatien, and
President Harrison interferes, in the
interest of the raiways to make that
traneperation dear,•
If the preeident shall persist the Ca -
neaten farmer will have a inueli
cheaper route to the nit than his rival
iu the western states will have. The
S. Lawreuee must always be the
cheapest route from the west to the
sea. The presideett of the United
States forbids the farmers of the west.
ern states to use that cheap route be
cause he wants the support of the rtiI
way compauies and because he cannot
get their support unless he takes act
ion ea.lculated to divert traMe from the
St. Lawrence to the railways,at higher
rates. The higher rates tvill come out
of the pockets of the western farmers.
TEE CROLERA
The cholera is so dreadful a plague
that no measure. Of proeaution is too
high a price to pay for immunity
against it. It is now desolating some
parts of Europe; tt has invaded Eng,
land; and it has made its appearance
at New York. So far Canada has es
caped, and, as the Dominion govern)
ment will take precautions as to the
landing of immigrants, there is some
hope that the dreaded scourge may be
kept at a distance, But the dutv will
remain with all civic authorities to
keep the towns and cities dean. While
cholera is a communicable disease, it
spreads under circumstances favorable
to it, and is checked by cleanliness
and attentiun to diet. Water is more
than any other agency the yebiele in
which cholera germs are carded; be;
the best authorities believe that they
may be carried in the air, and all con
ditions of dirt favor their disseminatiou
The duty of prevention, then, rests
upon the gpvernment, upon all munie
ipat auhorities and upon individuals.
The goyernment has already taken
precautions as to the quarantining' of
vessels arriving from countries in
which cholera exists. The boards of
health of some of the cities have begun
to act; and citizens generally are
awaking to the fact that personal as
well as governmental action ma,y be
come necessary.

THE BEST OPENING.
Many men are wondering those days
what they shall do with their boys.
The tendency is from the farm rather
than to it. The professions are over
crowded. Brand new physiciaus and
lawyers are daily hanging out their'
shingles, but the patients and litigants
come 'slowly. Eyen in the church there
are more laborers than fields. Mercau
tile houses are full; bookkeepers are a
drug on the market; and he who seeks
to apprentice his son to a trade finds it
almost impossible to do so. What is to
be done? Are the boys to grow up
without trades or professions, or are
they to continue to struggle in over
crowded callings where the weak Must
be trampled under foot?
There is one profession open to young
men who have brains and some edn
cation -a profeeeion ‘vhich promises
the very highest prizes, and. for many
years cannot be oVercrowded. That is
the profession of the electrical engineer
Electricity is being introduced for
lighting, for power and for locomotion
with a rapidity that almost takes the
world's breath away, There is plenty
ef -work for alt competent men with
things in their present shape. But the
science is still in its infancy. 'There,
is almost infinate room for develop

AN, UNIth LIA-137,1 SECRETARY.
Jn his letter to bin) lion. Mr, Herbert
the Secretary of Statehheit the.. Upited
States says: "Irrithediatelyh after. the

eXpense, were thrown open to the use
guege of diplomaey and polite life does
not contain, language capable of ade-
qaately cheraeterizing the aceuraey
of the above statement. The use of the
Erie Canal is supposed to be guarentes
ed te Canadian vessels, but ie feet they
do not enjoy it, After the ratification
of the IVashington treaty customs' reg-
uletions were passed by the United
States requiring foreign vessels nevi -
gating American canals to unload at
the first port of entry. This was a de-
vice of Yankee statesmanship by whieh
eational ,obligations were evaded,
though apparently observed. One
Canadian vessel attemped to make the
passage of the EriesCanal under the
Washington treaty but she was stop-
ped at Whitehall and compelled to un-
load. The attempt was never repeated
The morality of the American Govern-
ment's course in this matter has been
about on a par with that of the weldor
of wooden nutmeg's; while the truth-
fulness of the Secretary of State is such
as we inight look for a patent medicine
advertisement.

A Great Sufferer from
S
Perfectly Cured by
Hood's Sarsaparilla
The best stomach tonics known to
medical science are so happily com-
bined in Hood's Sarsaparilla that it
cures Indigestion, and Dyspepsia in its
severest forms, when other medicines
fail. In many cases Hood's Sarsapa-
rilla seems to possess a magical touch,
so quick and so gratifying the relief.
Read the following from an aged and
respected citizen of St. Mary's, Ont.:
"1 am very glad to give this tesdrnonial as
