surveys is causing 'the Provincial
authorities to gasp. There s con-.
siclerable work cut out for them.
In many cases even the most rudi-
mentary'health laws are set at de-
fiance. Summer ice is taken from
waters into which sewage is emp-
tied, garbage is earel'essly handled,
the milk supply is contaminated,
and other equally ,reekless proce-
dure is ,chronicled in a most mat-
ter-of-fact manner.
The Provincial Departinent is not
making public the names of the of-
fending municipalities, but the con-
ditions shown to exist in the var-
ious centres will be promptly grap-
pled with. From present indica-
tions it look' as though a whole-
sale campaign of general . house-
cleaning will have to be waged
throughout urban •Ontario, and

Mr. Bennett's Oratory.
A contemporary of Mr. lithighen, an-

perfect whirlwind of oratory. Hie flumes.,

Mr. ,,Bentiett undoubtedly hue more than
once felt that be MLR wasting hie breath.
Ottee he recognizes the situation, and he
probably has done so already, he, too,
undoubtedly will emulate the Parliamen-
tary style. As he has great ability ho
will catch it and probably become a
leading parliamentary figure.

WIll the Progressives Live?
In United States politico the question
which continues to offer food for con-
troversy is 88 to whether the new Pro-
gressive Party, under the leadership of
Theodore Itooevelt, is th' wallow the Re-
publican Party or whether the Republi-
can Party will 'swallow it. Acoording to
the leaders of tho Progressives there is ne
room for controversy. In their minds the
Republican Party is dead ead the fun-
erni ceremony le inerelY beim," delayed.
The feet is that according to Ameridan
history the Republican Party has outlived
Ito allotted span of life. Parties as a,
rule have not beau long lived in the
'United States. The unusual period of
supremacy enjoyed by the Republican
Party ie the result of the unusual condi-
tions created by the 01711 War, since whieb
event the Republic lose been almost eon•
tinually controlled by tho party which
utilizes the elephant for an emblem,
Woodrow Wilson and Grover Cleveland
have been the only Democratic Prat -
dents in all that time,
Whether the time for a disintegration of
the Republican party 11 ELS 11051 arrived
will be seen during the next two or three
years. The Progreesives eay that apy
merger between them and the Republi-
cans ie .abeolutely impoesthle. The only
argument in favor of molt a merger
would be. they SAY, 5,0 Movease their
chance of winning at the next, election,
and they add tho Progressive Party was
founded on certain pripciples and not for
the immedinte object of getting control
of the "pork barrel." Had they &mire('
only to win an election at any cost there
would have boon no split,
