His,remarks were opt- imistic and at the same • time sane. Ile spoke first on Conada'e relation to the world, -and especially England, as a borrower, and stated that her total borrowings amounted to $3,000,000, 000 of which England has contribut- ed the greater proportion. For this Canada has to pay an annual interest of $135,000,000. He expressed his belief emphatically Canada was able to provide for this' amount. . But how? By her railways, of which 27, 000 miles has been already construct- ed leaving only a little more to be done for the time. On these the bulk of the recent borrowings has'been ex- pended, and from these the revenue would now flow to meet interest ob- ligations, He mentioned agriculture as other promising sources of increa• sing wealth in the near future. ' VIGOROUS JOURNALISM OF THF OUT AND OUT INDEPEN- ANT KIND. "'People who really want a sturdily independent but frankly liberal news- paper, will appreciate Mr. Dougal's paper, the ` The Montreal Weekly Witness." While soma papers are notoriousiy and obviously at the beck and call of predatory interests, there are others that have maintained their independanee and notably that great national paper, the "Montreal Week- ly .Witness," is a striking example. It has never been "under the thumb" of any person; or~party, or "Clique. It has never grovelled.' It has - never touted. It has never pandered.

The following is from the Christian Guardian, Toronto, may be read with interest: What is a fair and proper assess- ment of any priuperty? Has the cost anything to do with it, or is the sell- ing value or. the income-producing power to be the sole guide? Toronto last week had fopeculiar case argued out beforethe court, when Sir Henry Pellatt's appeal against his assess- ment came. up.-` Sir Henry has built a house which has cost hien consider- able money,. some say $500,000, and some hint even at 1,000,000. When the assessors had to place a value on Sir Henry's nestle -house they were puzzled. It certainly not a revenue- producing property, and as there are comparatively few Torontoans who can afford to live in a $500,000 house, there would be a few buyers if the property were offered for sale. Under the ordinery tests the assess- ment would be comp aritively small NOMINATION . Public Notice is hereby given that a meeting of the electors of the police village of Zurich, will be held in the Town Hall Zurich. on Monday Dec. 29th, 1913; at the hour from, 7,30 to 8.30 p. m., for the purpose of nomin- ating Police Trustees for the Police Village of Zurich, for the year 1914, and in case a poll is demanded, a poll will be opened in Clerk's office, Town Hall, on MONDAY•JA.N: 5th, 1914.

Sir Henry Pellatt's appealed, U, and when the appeal was argued some of the experts testified that had added nothing or next to nothing to the value of the property; and one, if we remember aright, thought the prop erty might even be worth ,without the house. This means of covrse _;that Sir Henry bad piacticallytthrown' a- way his half -million. Finally a - compromise was reached. and Sir Henry's castle is,assessed at $100,000 It follows, we judge from this, that if any man of wealth cares to put a couple of million dollars into a house it will be practically free from taxa- tion unless the assessors can find some man rich enough to make an offer for the place. We have no idea that Sir Henry would even look at an offer of $100,000, and yet this is the amount upon which he will pay taxes But the poor man who builds a $2,- 000 house with a $1,000 mortgage on it, will probably be assessed at $1,- 500. And this, we are told, is the law. Most of us will agree that some bow the law doeanot seem to be ex- actly just. SCHOOL REPORT The following it the report of S. S.

The exhibitors, par- ticularly those of Western Ontario, have signed their intention of sending the best they have to Guelph,, for it is well known that it would be useless to exhibit anything else With a view of taking home a share of the prise money. The substanticl manner in .which the Provincial Winter Fair is grow- ing can be very accurately judged from the following comparisons be- tween 1912 and 1918. Last year tdere were 250 horses entered; this year the number is already 350. The entries of dairy cattle are so far 10 in excess of last year's record number; of be cattle there will be over 170 en- tries, whereas in 1912 the were 129. Large increases are also noticed' in sheep and swine.
