A salaam visitation proves a very ex- pensive piece of badness to any ovoid. paRty, It cost the city of Toronto 84,500 in oaring for the 28 patients thrown upon their hands during the past season. There is nothing worth so moth and so little veined as good health. A. onuer, Editor in eommepting of Carrie Nation says "If the piotures of Carrie Nation resemble her in any respect, we know why ehe smashes so many mirrors." Carrie may be doing business along the line that fine feathers do not always make fine birds. GOLDwIN AND Mne, SMITH, of Toronto have presented the handsome arum of $10,. 000 to the Library Fund of Toronto Hai - varsity. The gift will no doubt be very highly appreoiated. Mr. Smith ie a very peonliar man in some reepeote but has high ideate for the Doming days. POLICE MAGISTRATE DENISON and Orown Attorney Curry, of Toronto, have been giving the Christian Soientiato quite a razo0 over the death of a 6•year-old child, eon of a mac who is a believer in this faith. The lad was attacked by diph. theria and instead of Bending for a medical practitioner a "demonstrator" was called in. The evidence went to show that with ordinary medical treatment the boy would likely have pulled through. The father baa been committed for trial. STRONG protests are befog uttered by the grand jury's of many States since the cruel aesaeeination of President ale - Rioter, along the line of stringectlegis- lation in wiping out anarohy. It is not at all improbable that the anarchists drove more nails in their own coffins by their diabolical aot than anybody else could have done in years. Every other nation ea well as the U. S. should com- bine in the uprooting of any Olaes with as blank hearted a creed as the anarchists claim to stand by. y IT is said that John G. Miibarn, at whose residence President McKinley died, is an Englishman by birth, bio fatber being a well known bridge builder in Eagland. He is a Lawyer by profee- 810n and 000npiee the important position of President of theBaffaloExbibition Co. Mr. Milburn got world wide advertising through the dastardly act of Czolgoez and the removal of Mr. McKinley to hie residence. Mise Grace McKenzie, the trained nurae who waited on the late President in hie illness, is a Canadian, her home being e,t Galt one time it is held. "ALL is not gold that glitters" is a maxim poeseeeing more troth than poetry. Ordinary people often lament that it is not their lot to stand in the front rank forgetting that the front rank- ers have to take a large share of the brunt in life's battlefield. Dnriog the Amerloan•Spanieh war at Cabe, Admiral Bohley was a prominent oftioer of the fleet of Uncle Sam's contingent but since then he leas been on the gridiron for failure to do hie duty, particularly be- came bo did u t ink the Colon in Santi- ago harbor.

Tan general opinion was that the Boer war was about on its last lege, bat daring the past week there was a rally in wbiob they inflioted four defeats on the British, Of coarse the number of men loot and the damage done wae not counted of a I 4t e very serious oharaoter b sufficient to chow that the remnant is very much alive and that they are as tricky as ever. There is quite an outcry againet the British Government for ontttng down the neoeesary supplies to Lord Kitoben. er. It is said that France and Russia are anxioae to turn their Eagle and Bear loose in South Afrioa to give Mr. Kruger a lift.

Wit. Plant the headiug of a "Moos Ito position," the Toronto Sun points out t the injury dole to the fermate of be Western peniueula of Ontario by railway freight dieorimivation. 1t oitee the omen of the Wabash railway wbinh has running powers pyo; the Air line of the CAand Trona between Detroit and liuf. fah), and the Michigan Central railway, which oleo passes through Ontario be. twee❑ the game puiats, .Both these rail. ways are heavy grain carriers. The rate both made charge for parrying grain from Detroit to New York for export ie now 10 oente per hundredweight. From Kunkle, Ohio, nearly, one hundred miles West of Detroit, the rate to New York ie 11 Dente par hundred weight, and from North Morenoi, Miob„ a few miles East of Kunkle, the rate is the eame. Every oent added to this rate would be taken from the price which the Michigan and Ohio farmere now reoeive at the railway elevator°. As from Detroit West the export rates go up, it would be natural to suppose they would go down, but the pub. tithed tariffs of both the Mlobigan Gen. tral and Wabash lines show tbat instead of going down they go up with a jolt. From Detroit, as I have pointed out, the rate to New York is 13. cents per hun- dredweigbt, and this rate is kept up from every Canadian shipping point on these two linea between Detroit and Buffalo, From Eieex Centre, Chatham, Rtdgetown, St.* Thomas, Tileonburg, Simcoe, Water- ford, Oayuga, and Welland the rate to New York la 35 per oent. higher than the rate from Detroit. From Fort Erie, lying on the Niagara river, 60 miles Emit of Detroit, the rate is higher than it is from Magee, Indiana, which lies almost the eame diatanoe to the West of Detroit. This shameful dieorimination against the Oauadian farmere and ebippere should be put a atop to. The American railway companies that impose upon ne in this way have received most favorable treat ment in Canada, In the United States they pay taxes on their property at a steadily iooreaeing rate, while in Ootario they get off with a mere trifle. Across the line they have to build their roads with their owe money, while here both the Michigan Central and Air Line Rail. ways received heavy manioipal bonnsee. What mockery it is for tbe Government to go on opening up new routes for Ameri. can grain shipments through Canada while permitting this crying injustice to contione. By compelling jest treatment American roads r chi ars of on by the FP the Government can add two cents per t bushel to the prioe of all grain tbat is put upon the market West of Toronto, for if the American roads bring down their rates, our Canadian roads will be forced to follow their example.
