THURSDAY, JUL.I' 9, 1909.
Tnet 36th Birthday of the Dominion of
Canada, celebrated on Wednesday of lest
week, found Mise Canada making marked
and tnoet eatiefaotory prograee. TImee
(leve been exoeptionell'y good and au era
of prosperity eujoyed of no inooneidorabte
vane to *bo people of thie country.
'While the beam ooutinuee in the Wester-
ly portion of the Dominion the Eteterly
and Central Pruviuoes have no oell to
wear wry fawn nor Leer much alarm for
the years to ooma. Some poeeamistio
oroakere are banging their lip over the
hard times that are to follow such a
period ofmane but let us be satisfied
to arose the bridge when we dome to it
and not start weeping over ills that may
never befall ae, Crop prospeote are quite
favorable, prion and markets are keeping
good and on the whole we heve e. goad
right to sing the praises of the glorious
Dominion end not forget the good
Providenoe that hoe net our lot in such
a highly favored land.
Wooro in Goderieh last Monday after•
noon the Editor of THE Pon had a eon.
feranoe with Mayor Lewis as to the
probabilities of the extension of the C. P.
R. from Guelph to Goderiob in the near
future. Two provisional routes Irelikely
to'be surveyed the Northerly touching at
Nlmira, Lietowel, Brussels, Blyth, and
Auburn and the Southerly via Monkton,
Leadbury and Clinton. The 0. P. R.
people say in short, we will build the
reed and operate it if the right of way is
secured. It ie expected that a surveying
party will be over the proposed routes
and after that steps may be taken in
reference to promotion. Brnasele, Grey
and Morrie cannot allow this opportnnity
to pass unimproved and the leaders in
municipal %deal:cement should be on the
alert regarding it. The question of trace•
portation and oonvenieoce of passenger
travel is one of decided importance in
this day and the wide-awake municipal-
ities are the ones that will ultimately
laud at the top.
Faty branaheo of practical education
have been demonstrated more clearly by
any organization than batter and cheese
making by the Ontario Agricultural
College, Dairy Schools, and last bat not
leant the Travelling Dairy. The latter
cams almost to the homes of the people
and by practical tests and experiments
proved beyond gaeetion that there was a
right and a wrong method of butter
making. What the value ofthen demon.
etratione has proven to be might not be
easily estimated but certain it is that the
advantages were neither email nor unset•
iefactory. This week Misses Laura and
Annie Rose, of Guelph, have taken a
trip to Nova Scotia where they will at.
tend 30 schools ander the direction of the
Government of that Province, in giving
the praatieat training destined to plane
thio Dominion in trout rank as butter
makers. Some people profess to sneer
at the necessity of this class of work bat

knee, of their value and have good sense
enough to put into active operation the
plane and methods warranting success.

COL. THobtrsoa, of Haldimand Cm, hae
btonght to the notine of the Dominion
Parliament a question of no email im-
portance viz the neaeesity of increase to
the militia, ) ilit'a inth Ir e' attandano
e at
the
annual drill. Ea urges that e. 91 00 per
day be sabebituted for the present 50
oent rate and, judging by the epeeohee
following hie, the trend of opinion leane
to the $1 00. When men were plentiful
and the country newer the old system
apparently worked all right but with the
many ehangeo a new order of things is
necessary and 110 where more so than in
the ont•of date program followed for
years in the management of the militia.
County Councils have been besieged an-
naeliy for greets to supplement the 50a
per diem in the hope of aiding the local
offionre in malting a preeentabls turnout
in oemp and even ibis has failed to keep
up the attendance in many oases. Men
wbo lire well acquainted with military
life say there f9 great necessity for a
general wad thorough overbauling of
plane and methods before the militia
eyetem will be on a eatiefaotory footing.
We are of the opinion that in some
notions there is too great a dietiootion
drawn between the offiaere and men. In
tba old land were the nobility hold sway
ani commissions were bought there was
room far a 10080009 of snobbery and class
dietinotione, even if the offtoiety was
often hollow beaded, but the rules and
usages in thio land should do away with
a Targe share of this Bort of thing and
nommen oomforte and privileges should
bo more generally shared ,as the privates
are often Dolled upon to take "pot look,"
It is tt good sign when in revilement flap -
portent of the Governmeot oall up such
oases as the one Ool. Thompson has re•
ferred to instead of throwing the onus
upon the Opposition. Had the latter
while in power done their duty there would
eat be the demand now for radical and

predictions says :
"The first storm period begins on the
2nd and 3rd. ea a coueegaenoe of the
pecu:iar position of Meroury the month
is likely to ooma iu with Bloody weather
and drizzling rain in many sections. On
the 2nd and 3rd this unsettled condition
will grow into more pronounced storm
Conditions. It will turn much warmer •
the atmosphere will grow muggy and
close, the barometer will fall and some
solid thunder storms wibh local rains will
pari over the country in their usual
order," The second storm period is cen-
tral on the 9th, and promisee to be lees
rainy although ehowereare predicted to
be frequent. Daring the third period
which is central ou the 15th Prophet
Hiake gives a warning for people to ex.

says, "or pulsation of heat will arise at
this time along with which the barometer
will fall, and many electrical threeteuing
storm clouds will rise on and touching
the 15th. As a rule July brings some of
the most ominoue looking Monde of the
whole year, but they oftener .pass with
high blaster, thunder, lightning and rain.

this period with heavy dowopoare of

The fourth etorni period is central on tbe
20th and it will be marked by great heat.
"We believe," ,aye the forecaeter, in
speaking of it, "that a general and per•
sietent heated term win prevail at this

Work of tyle old
Gerrymander.
Io view of the fent that a new redis-
tribution of the counties le being made, in
which the Conservatives tbie lime have a
voice ae well its the Libernle, the follow
ing article from an old Dopy of the Glebe,
showing how the Oounty of Huron was
divided in 1882, may be of interest :
"The story of the gerrymander of 1882
may be old, bat none the 'emit shows the
diaadvatrtagee under which the Liberate
fanghee. The fo'lowing sample, which
shows the principle applied in framing
the bill, id taken from a ,peed) by Dr.
Maodooald, of MIMEO, and the facts have
never been disputed.
The tent that Liberals carried all three
dose not alter the motive of the framers
of the bill. The County of Helton in' 78
gave about 800 Liberrl majority. The
Bret draft of thn bill of '82 divided the
county in South Huron, Centre Huron
and North Eur(u. The or ratty then held
a population of 67,000, and oou d be divid•
ed Into three aoustitueuciee,giving a little
over 22,000 each, which was the unit to
repreeentation. After the bill was ln•
iroduoed, a dopotation of ponnereabivee
from Huron oame to Ottawa. The very
next day Bir John Maedoneld moved that
another division of Huron should be
made. Three municipalities were taken
from Huron, to pat into North Middlesex
and one into South Perth. And three
other divisions of Huron were made.
Iuetead of a North, Centre and South
division it was East, Went end South.
rewording to the vote of 1878• this mare
lent Enron a Conservative majority of
93, West 130ro11 a Conservative majority
of 116, and hived iu South Huron a
Liberal majority of 1,000. At the same
time the two municipalities given to
North Middieeex had in '78 given a Oon•
aunties majority of 115 and were in.

hope, which had given a Liberal majority
193. This wag placed in North Oxford,
to increase the Liberal majority of 800
already there. Then North Eaethope,
which gave e msjerity of 309, was also
wWed to North Geturd, to relieve North
Perth, from which was alga taken Wal-
lace, with a Coneervative of 60. Tbie
was given to North Wellington, in tbe
hope of defeating Mr. MoMallen, All
this was done to "equalize the repreee0
talion," the Tories amid. Bat at the same
time they formed fourteen ridings in
which the unit of representation was 26,
825 and fourteen others in which the
Coit w.te 15,625. In 1882 one Liberal
member represented 8615 votes and one
Conservative 2,540 ; in 1887 the Liberal
represented 4,638 votes, the Onnservetive
3,365. In 1891: Liberal, 5 550 ; Coo-
eervative, 3,150 ; while in tbie attention
the total vote was ; Liberal, 182,000, with
36 members, and Conservative, .186,000,
with 56 members, or twenty more
members, for 4,000 more votes. Such
WWI the effect of the gerrymander, and

bow it was arranged to produce ibis

FRES CONSUMPTION HOS-
PITAL.
A Pitiful Appeal from a Poor Cone00 p.
tiro —Money Urgently Needed to
Curry on the 'York.
The following letter is shown as one of
many distressing appeals made by applie
cants soaking admission to the Free Cone
suntption Hospital;
"I ata anxious to ntalre application 'on
behalf of my daughter, Pauling, 'who has
.contracted the' dread white plague' while
lovingly performing her duty 1n oaring
for her dear mother, who eight monthe
ego euooumbod to the dread disease.
Aline is a sad ease. For three long years
my wife suffered from consumption, of
which she finally died, leaving me alone
to raise a family of children, one only
five years old. My daughter, Pauline,
who nursed her during her long illness,
was my only hope, as she took Charge of
my home, and now the hand of disease
has fallen upon her. Her physicians
have pronounced it a case of consumption,
and advise an immediate removal to the
Sanatorium. I am only a poor man,
dependent on my daily wage, and the
long arid heavy expanses of my wife's
illness have so depleted my resources that
I cannot possibly pay tlto expenses in an
expensive sanatorium, though I would
he glad to do so were it in my power.
Oen you not receive her into your Free
Hospital, and so snatch a young life
from the wasting sutleringe of so terrible
a disease? The doctors consider her case
a curable ono at this stage, but delays
would be dangerous. Hoping and trust-
ing to hear from you shortly, and to
receive the proper application blank
forms, I am, yours in trouble and need."
Everything possible is being done by
the Association to meet the many
and urgent calls from oonsumptives.
Seventy-six patients are now being cared
for in the Free Hospital, and not a single
patient has been refused admittance
because of his or her poverty. The great
matter of concern with the management
is the lack of funds. The question that
is facing the Trustees to-dayiswhether
they shall not be compelled to close some
of the wards because of this.
Readers of this paper who desire to
help, can do so by Bending contributions,
no matter how small the amount, to Sir
Wm. R. Meredith, Kt., Vice -President

port Avo.,'Toronto, or W. 2, Gage, Chair-
