A canal commission appointed by Governor Roosevelt, of New York State, has been looking over the Clan- , adian canals, Its members are reported to :have said that these nueles in our waterway are a revelation to therm that, if Mout- real provides adequate terminal facili- ties, the• present Erie canal will not be able to conmete with the St. Law- rence systene;and that it might be well to abandon the Erie camel altogether and allow the Western traffic of the United States to go by the Canadian route. Commenting on these statements, the New York Tribune says: "The simple facts are that for years past Canada has been Ina - proving her transportation facilities in a far-seeing, enterprising, energetic and liberal manner. She has meant business at every step. She has been animated by the spirit that has made the British Empire the greatest com- mercial power the world has ever seen. SECRETS OF GERRYMANDER. The Huntingdon Gleaner (clean Lib- eral) speaks as follows in the course of a discussion of the proposed gerey- mender:— " The inference is obvious, that the distribution has not been based On population, but upon the political com- plexion of the constituencies -- that Conservative counties have been allot- ted fewer menibers than they are en- titled to, while Liberal •counties have been unduly favoured. "While it is probablethe judges would effect a more equitable division of a, county into ridings than Perna- enent, the price the country would pay in makieg the bench partisan would. far outweigh the adyantage. "When the country has had time to • fully consider the bill, we are inclined to think the balance of public opinion will be against dragging the judges in- to the political arena. "If the bill brought in on Friday passes, the Liberals will have a much better prospect of success in Ontario than they otherwise would. "The constitutional. point, whether the House is competent to pass a re- distribution bill except after the cen- sus, is a forinidable one, and if refer- -Ted:to the Supreme Court the decision would probably be ag,ainstthe Govern- ment." In the Dominion Rouse, Mr. Clarke will ask: "Is it the intention of the Government to offer similar iaduce- meats to English, Irish and Scotch immigrants as to the building of houses feeding and making homes for them- selves in the North-West ancl provid- ing for their most urgent Deeds par- tially or wholly, or facilitating trans- port conditions as it has been doing to the Doulehobors and other foreign im- raigrants. If not, why not? If any in- ducements have been offered to Brit- ish immigrants of a character similar to those offered to immigrants from othersountries, will the Government specify what they are and at the same time state what inducements have been offered to Deukhobors and other iinme grants from other countries.

Them ereee landed from the Majee- tie at blie haege office over 750 Irish • boys and girls. The latter were in the majority, and their a,ges ranged from 15 to 25 years. The emigration from Ireland is unusually heavy this season, and the outlook is that thous- ands of Irish lads end lassies well flood the coatary before the season is mica ed. Many are going through to the west, Why are none of these induced to come to Canadae le. W. Hodson, of Toronto, supetin- • tetanal -It of Farmer's Institutes, has re- ceivea a most advantageous offer of a position in the 'United States, whieh, however ne has decided to decline. The proposition came from a, weelthy fine or cafitle breeders and buyers iriNelson nounty, Keetticky, and tendered Mr, odsdei the control of their live stock at, a salary of $2,500 per annum. The superintendeet of Farmer's, Institutes Was in this einploy foe fi,e. yeas and spent a very pleeeant •time. Al- though the position would, have been a profitable one, with congeniel ditties attached, Mr. Hocleon prefers to re - :main in Ontario.

The Latest News --- Sir Wilfrid Laurier reiterates that the matters referred to tbe.,*Joint High Commission were in a fair way to ad- justment until a stumbling block was found in the .Alaska boundary ques- tion. Another commissioner Mr. John Charlton, states he a magazine article that disagreement on the lumber ques- tion is the main difficulty. It is related of Ur. Sifton's ixtost cherished immigrants, the Doulthobors tha,t they are enabled owing to their scientific methods, to pursue their la- bours without the assistance of either the horse or oX. For example, in ploughing. they tarriess the women in front of the plough, and there you are. Half a dozen duchesses do the pulling while the duke steers. This seems to be the application of domestic econo- my to agriculture. But it shows that the women are not proud. The Toronto World says : In a few days an ostrich farm will be establish- ed within a mile or so of Toronto. Negotiations are now under way for the purchase of a property, and the ostriches, nine in number, have been sbipped from San Francisco, and will arrive in Toronto ahoub June 1. The proprietor of the farm will be Wm. T, Lundy-, of 664 Ontavio street. For some years lee has been studying the con- ditions of Ostrich farming, :and be is now thorouglely satisfied that he can make it a paying yenture in Canada. The census officials estimate thatthe population of the United States next year will be found to be75,000,000. This is, of course, without the Philippines, and Porto Rico etc. The treasury of- ficials, however, on the first of April last, calculatecithe population at 75,- 875,000, and there are those who tbink that the count of 1900 should show not less than 80,000,000. This latter B.gnre is based though on a higher birth rate than, it is held, the facts justify. The natural growth in the United States, as in other countries, appears to de- crease with the increase in comfort (or selfishness) among the people, Arty figure will, however, leave Canada with a tremendously big neighbor TELEGRAPHIC BRIMS'S.

And too often there is no patt thee receives lem attention. Otto of the most frequent causes of clickiee is thn filling up ce' the oiets ta j with dust, and the consequent bard workbag of the links over the gprocket wheel. Clean your chain often and keep it well oiled. That does not mean keep it covered with oil. Too many riders do that. Keep the joints well oiled. To do this there is no better way than to first thoroughly cleanse the chain in coal oil or benzine, wipe dry and then rue through a va,seline eolution, heated till it is quite thin:' Let this drain off and then wipe the chain dry. 'The thin yaseline will have found its way into the joints of the links and will stiffen there, filling them with the best sort of a lubri- cant eged not leaking all over the out- side of the chain, causing the dust to gather. One of these oilings will keep your chain in good condition for several weeks of ordinary use. The Doctors Puzzled. THE PECULIAR CASE OFA NOVA SCOTIAN LADY The Trouble Began in a Swelling of the Big Toe Which Spread to all arts of the body—Doctors Could Not Account for the 'Trouble, and Their Treatment Did Her No Good. From the New Glasgow Enterprise. Loch Broom is a picturesque farm- ing hamlet situated about' three miles from the town of Picton, N. Se In this hamlet, in a cosy farm house live Mr. and Mrs. Rector McKinnon. A few years ago Mrs. McKinnon was taken with a disease that puzzled several doctors. who atteuded her. It was generally known that Mrs. Mc- Kinnon owed her ultimate recovery to good health to the use of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills tor Pale People,and a re- porter of the Enteeprise being in tbe • :neighborhood. called upon the lady and asked her if she had any objections to relating the particulars of her illness and cure. "Indeed I have not," replied Mrs. McKinnon, "I think that those who are cured, owe it to the medicine that brings them back to bealth, always to say a good word for it. My trouble appareutly had an insignificant start- ing point. It came off with a swelling in the big toe, accompanied by intense pain. Gra.clually the swelling extend- ed. to my limbs and then to my whole body, accompanied by pain which made my life a burden. A doctor was called in but he did not help me. Then another and another until I had four different medical men to see me, one of them the most skilled physicians in the province. Yet my case seemed to puzzle every one of them, and none of them gave me more than the nierest temporary relief. • One Doctor said the trouble was inflanimation of the bone. Another said lawas aggravated sciatica and gout. The other two called it by other earnes, but whatever it was none of them helped me. By this time 1 had got so low and weak that I could not lift hand and foot if it would save my life, and no one expected to see me get better. In fact the doctor seed if T sank any lower I could not live. And yet here I am to day as well, as ever I was in my life. While [was at the lowest, a minister called to see me and asked why I did not try Dr. Williams' Pink Pills.
