NOTES AND COMMENTS.
---
That invitation to Canada from the
New York Legislature, asking the Do-
minion to unite her fortunes with Uncle
Sam is very nicely worded; but it will
not elicit a more favorable response
than was given when the McKinley law
was used as a club for the purpose of
forcing us into union,

While the woollen industry of Cana da
has gone ahead by leaps and bounds
under the fostering help of the N. P.,
there never was a time when piece
goods were as cheap as they are to day.
This is specially notablein those grades
used by the working classes [those pro-
teges of the free treder] and can be
verified ley any tyro who takes the
trouble to do it. Tweeds are now
shown in Montreal market at 25c that
could not have been bought at 38c prior
to 1878. It is the same with everything.
The complaints of makers and mer-
chants to -day is that vslues of manu-
factured goods havefallen to a point
that makes the handling of them unre-
nannerative. Houses require all the
labor and plant necessary to turn over
tons of goods before they can make any
amount. How to continue to do this
with any profit at all is one of the prob-
lems thatconfronts the wholesaler of
'to -day.

If wheat, cotton, wool, iron and sug-
ar, which have sustained tremendous
shrinkages in values during the past
two years, are to remain in the vicin-
ity of their present respective low
prices, it is held by a well knowa
financial authority that most other
staple, both raw and manufactured,
real estate and property of all kinds.
will have to be liquidated upon an
equivalent baste. It seems, however,
that this assertion needs some qualifi-
cation, unless, of course, over -produc-
tion forms the ruling factor in most of
the other staples referred to. Take
for instance the important staple of
hides, the price of which has apprecia-
ted to the extent of 100 per cent with-
in the past nine months. But the low
price of wheat, cotton, iron and sugar
in no wise affected the steady advance
in the price of hides, which was caused
chiefly by the persistent falling off in
the supply, irrespective of the depres-
sed condition of the above mentioned
articles; and. were the supplies of wheat
cotton or iron reduced in the same
ratio as that of hides, the price of
each of these staples would advance in
proportion. The advance in hides is a
clear indication that cattle are scarce all
over, and it should at once settle the
question that the boom in the price
of beef has been the natural result of
supply and demand, and has come to
stay.

The Dominion Estimates
---
Ottawa, Ont. April 30. -The estim-
ates laid on the table this afternoon
show that the Government has redeem-
ed its promise to control the control-
lable expenditures as much as is consis-
tent with the requirements of the pub -
lie service. The total amount asked
for consolidated fund is $1,682,693.91
less than last year. The amount
chargeable to capital account is $412,
155 less than last year; so that the
total reduction is over two million
dollars. It happens, however, that
the amount of the deb t to be redeem-
ed next year is $1,627,652 more than
last year, so that the total amount to
,be entered and authorized by statute
for redemption of debt is $167,190 lees
than last year. The total amount
chargeable to consolidated fund is $36,
831,458; total chargeable to eapital, 81,

A Stratford Man Suicides
Capac, Mich., April 27.-A German
aged about 28 years, committed sui-
cide at the house of Tobias S. War-
ren, of this village, Friday. He had
hired out the previous day to work
on Warren's farm, situated. eight
miles from town. Mr. Warren arose
early and went to the barn. When
he came back he found the man
standing in the. parlor, bent over,
and blond Rowing from a wound in
his throat, and a razor in his hand.
"Why have you done this?" He
answered, "Trouble." What was
the trouble ?" A girl scrape." What
is your name? William Manse, and
I live near Stratford, Ont." He said
he had a father and mother living
near Stratford and a sister living in
Chicago. Then he said, "I must die."
Those were his last words, and he
fell to the floor. A physician was
summoned, and with the aid of
others succeeded in sewing up the
wounds, but he survived. only a few
minutes.' Upon examination of his
clothes two pocket books were found
containing about $3.50; also the
photograph of a young lady. In a
valise was a suit of clothes and. other
minor effects.
Annexation of Canada
- --
Albany, N. Y., April 25. -When
to -day in the. Senate the concurrent
resolution offered yesterday in the
Assembly by O'Grady, and inviting
Canada to become annexed to the
United States was read, Senator
O'Connor said this was rather a
peculiar action for New York State
to take. He moved that it be referr-
ed to the finance comniittee. Sena-
tor Pound said the resolution was
accompanied by the endorsement of
many prominent men, and asked
that it be considered at once. Senator
Cantor said that he was surprised
that Senator O'Connor should oppose
the wishes of one of the men who
had endorsed the resolution. There
were not many things he had asked
for and not obtained. Senator
O'Connor insisted. on his motion to
refer. Senator Raines moved that
the words "ask Congress to invite"
be inserted, so as to allow Congress
to do this instead of New York
State. The amendment was adopted
and the motion was made and
carried to lay it on the table and to
print it. In the Assembly the sub-
ject was also referred to. Mr. Arm-
strong rose to a question of privi-
lege. - He desired to deny a state-
ment published in the the New York
Sun that Mr. O'Grady was a Cana-
dian. He supposed that it was gen-
erally known that Mr. O'Grady and.
himself were native Irishmen.
Responsibility of Teachers
- - -
Judge Jett, of the Quebec Superior
Court, rendered Judgment in the
case of Edward Peterkin vs. the
School trustees of St. Henri. This
was an action to recover. $100 dam-
ages on account of serious illness of
Plaintiff's son, alleged to have been
caused by exposure in a draught, the
teacher having opened a window up-
on ! him. In rendering judgment,
the Court held that the school board
was responsible for the ads of its
teacher. The learned judge did not
want to give a lesson to the teacher,
although she well deserved one. The
trust placed in teacher's hands was a
most sacred one, and parents had a
right to rely on the good sense of
teachers for the physical as well as
the mental care of their children.
Parents had nothings more precious
than their children. In the present
instance, the conduct of the teacher
could. not be excused. She exposed
the child to a difference of temper-
ature of twentyseven degrees, ancl
whatever might be the difference of
opinion of expert witnesses, it was
evident that exposure to a draught
was conductive to pneumonia or kin-
dred diseases. The proof in the pres-
ent instance showed that the child
was seriously ill and no other cause
could be attributed for his ill-
ness but the draught to which hevvas
subjected. When the boy asked the
teacher a first time, to close the win-
dow, she refused; his second de
mand to change his place, when he
was shivering met with a, similar
refusal, ancl when finally be asked. to
go home he was again refused. This
was most cruel treatment. The
teacher had had time to reflect: and.
her not clid not certainly inchoate
very tender sentiments. This teach-
er Must be held. responsible for the
boy's illness, and her employer's, the
school trustees, must in their turn be
held responsible for the net of their
servant. The Court further held that
plaintiff's demand of a hundreddol-
lars was nob excessive and conse-
quently indgment was rendered in
his favor for that amount.

OtTAWA, April 29.-A conversation held
a few days ago with a well known Ottawa
physician reyealed the fact that a far
larger percentage of the community than
generally belieye are suffering from the
incipient symptoms of Bright's disease.
He also stated that he had taken a con-
siderable interest in the reported case of
-Mr. G. H. Kent. of this city, and admitted
that in view of the published interviews
and the affidavit of Mr. Kent, he had no
hesitation in ascribing that gentleman's
recovery from a yery serious condition to
.Dodd's Kidney Pills. It is impossible to
get over the fact that Mr. Kent had taken
no other remedy,

The G-reat Spring
Medicine Sweeps
Away These
Troubles.
In almost eyery Canadian home, one or's
Trier° members suffer from indigestion,
dyspepsia, headache, nervousness or
aleeplesenees. In the great majority of
eases the doctors have failed to effect a
permanent cure, and the common patent
medieities of our times have only prolong-
ed suffering and agony.
How different the results with those
who have used Paine's Celery Compound 1
they have in every ease been raised to a
condition of perfect health, robustness and
mental vigor. Thoueands of renewed ande
re-oreated men and women in Canada, will
forever remember that their lives were
Bayed and made happy by Pains' s Celery
Compound.
Mr. Hugh J. Riley, of 42 Agnes etreet,
St Henry, Montreal. is one of the many
who have given public testimony for the.
benefit of sufferers in Canada. Mr. Riley
writes as follows: -
"I wish to publicly' acknowledge the
fact that I am indebted to your Paine's-
Celery Compound for health, strength and
life. For over three years I was a terrible
sufferer from indigertion, severe y,itins in
the stomach and headache. In addition
to these serious troubles, I had no appetite
or relish for food, and hardly know what
it was to have a full night's rest. This
condition of eleepleesnees and anxiety
made me very neryous, and I was fast.
becoming unfitted for my daily work. After
all other medicines had failed, I was for ,
tunately advised to use your Paine's-
Celery Compound; and now, I am delightte
ed to declare that it has no equal in the
world for removing such deeverous
troubles as I 'suffered nom. I am daily
gaining in strength, sleep well every night,_
and my appetite is good and healthy. I
strongly recommend Paine's Celery Com.
