The Galt Reporter en referring to the importanee of the Niagara Mee - Weal power question :says: A little consideration and fore- thought should COnVinCe* the manu- tacturing centres of 'western Ontar- io of the necessity a their obtain- ing cheap power from 'Niagara. It would practically free them from the yoke of the coal kings 'across the line, and the better enable (them to bold the trade of the Canadian west, which is yearly becoming of great- er importance to them. Settlers are gnillig in to that part of the. `Country by the tens of thousanda and creat- ing a market well worth coxing for. It has attracted theattention tof Jim Hill, the railway magnate, and he is constructing lines which will carry as much trade as it can, secure to Dulutite St. Pa-ul and other Ameri- can. cities. The city of Winnipeg has voted an appropriation of $3,250,000 for the development of a water pow- er north of the city, as ai means of attracting manufacturers to locate there. The, west will soon have a market large enough to draw big Industries to itself, and which a- few years hence will becotrie formidable rivals of the workshops of Ontario. Electrical power at rifle -half the price of steam power woufd ei.ssist the industries of the province Ito hold the trade they now have in the west and to increase it.. Private control of the asset the pr6virice possesses in Niagara Falls means high prices as certainly as twice two are tour. It is up to the municipalities to prevent the fastening cif a poweie monopoly on the people of Ontario:" It is the lea sentence in the a,bove quotation that we . object to. The municipalities have nothing to 'do with preventing the fastening of a.. Tower monopoly on the people of On- tario. This matter rests, or should: rest, 'entirely with the Ontario C4cui- ernment and Legislature. They have fuel authority to control the power and In every way. regulate, the charges whetter the power et)generated by privete or public enterp ise. There Is an agitation now for certain rneniel,- palitiete to undertake the develoe- enentniencl transmission of electrical, erlergy from the Falls, with Ole view of Obtaining cheap power. But there Is nothing to show that (the munici-; panties can secure power more &agi- le' in this way than 'they could through private companies working under .Government control. If . the power at Niagara is to ;be developed and , made useful throughout the province or any pert of the proirince, it will haye 'to be done In. this way. No municipility can ecure power more cheaply than it can be ftirnislie nee by a private coffipany ender proper control. If ihey do the whole tea - payers will have to make up the: df-' ference for the benefit of the few.. They are net the friends of the muni- cipalities who a,clivise them te em- bark in expensive and hazardous en- terprises of this kind under the guise or. obtaining cheap power. To do so. it Is not necessary to incur these mice. Indeed, municipalities can not be too careful in embareing fri such enterprises. If they do undertake them they are likely to -assume bur - es which will cripple !hem for years, if not for generations to come. It is desirable that cheap power :should be obtained, and that the lat- ent electrical resources ot the coun- try should be developed and male useTul as rapidly as possible, but the !burden should not be imposed 'on the municipalities,- and they should refuse to a,ssurne it. The well worn phrase, "jeeps and bounds," seems to be the ohly one adequate to deseribe the marvellous expansion of Canadian trade. The , figuees for tbe half year ending on the thirtieth of last 'June have now been issued, ane they show no abate- ment of the progrees of recent years. The aggregate trade of the Dominion for the year Just dosed amounted to $552,0e0,000, an inerease of nearly $82,000,000 over the previous year. In a decade the frierease has amounted to about 133 per cent. The value of farm produce exported during fee year was $120,518,297, an increase of $27,- 186,889 over the year preceding, and there WAS an. increase of considreably over three million dollars in the ex - 0mmomminmenumusims IHuman Nature AU Through Mack in .Toronto Saturday Night says: The other y 1 cameinto • town on a train carrying back a I number of men who had 'been west on one of these home seeker's' excursions, and took the opportunity to ;get their views of the west and -the conditions : that exist. They were a sore lot, these farmers. The western' .country impressed them favorably, but they. complained bitterly against land spec- ulatirs, saying that wherever they went they found that all the good land was pre-empted, that. everybody was a land agent, and that the .ac- tual settler could not get at the soil without paying heavy tithes to spec- ulators. They denounced the system of allowing big corimanles to ac- quire immense tracts of land, and they condemned the Government for permitting officials to. • make Money on the side in buying and selling real estate, as it left the home' seeker without a single disinterested person to whom he can appeal for sae: in- formation. Much that these men said was convincing, but it was amusing to learn a few moments later that they were of the very elass—capit- alists and speculators—that they so roundly denounced. It came out in conversetion that they had not one eel there as settlers seeklog to get at the sone but as well to do Ontario farmer's with a little money in band • that they were quite willing to double in a ,safe land deal. They de- clined to regard themselves as 'belong- ing to the objectionable lend agent speeulator classes, but they had, gone west to pick up a quarter sec- tion or two in some good neighbor- hood, with the idea a selling out at an advance in two �r nthree years. But the land sharks had 'got in ahead of them. Good honest souls, they would abolish all land geharks ;and make it possible for canny earmers from Ontario to go up there and pick up a few bargains. But the actual ettler, in trying to get to the soil will probably care little whether it IS an Ontario farmer or a Winnipeg real estate agent who mikes two dol- lars an acre oet of him. Yet what the Government needs to keep ever in roind is the fact that dt is. the man behind the plow that makes the west. The Dr. Crichton's ease. At the last meeting of the Ontario Medical Association, Dr. Cbrichton; of Cannington, was severely, disciplined by the Association 'for having, as was stated, violated the code of !medical 'etiquet set down by the Association for the medical profession oe the prov- ince. The violation consisted, it was stated, in Dr. Chrichton adv_ertisine by circular a certain re edy which he haddiscovered for the cure of le grippe and other ailments. i1s name Was consequently .eraced from ithe list of doctors and he is- forbidcien from car- rying on the practise of his profes- sion unfile the .Associatien see fit to permit him to do So. ' Had this been the case the 1 action ot the Council would be sirnPly outrageous and such as shoeld not be . permitted on • the part of any body, no matter how, re- spectable, in a feee country. This was vety severely condemned by the press and a demand made that the Legislature at the first 'opportunity, deprive Utile body of the Towers it had , been granted, supposedly. In the pub- lic interests and which, it had eo gropely abused. . But there are usually two sides to a story. Dy. W. H. Moorhouse, of To- ronto, President of the Medical Coun- cil gives a very different version of the ease. In a recent letter to the , Globe he says: • .. - - "On the 3rd inst. yoe say: nr. Crichton believed that he had discoe- ered a specific for the cure of la grippe. He advertised the fact in a pamphlet, which he' caused to be cire culated. For this he ws,s deemed by the council to have; been guilty of infamous ,and disgraceful dondtict, and his name ordered to be erased from the roll. Now, this is only as you say, a breach of professional etiquette. And if this were all the - Medical Council would have taken no action. It has never yet disciplined a physician for a breach of medical eti- quette; it has ne, power eo do so Here is Dr. Chichtoe's , offence: He published a am hi t de la 1 th a f1ecik remedy which will oure all caescr Of la grippe en an. hour or two ; typhele feeer, eitieumonia, ernalle poX and numberless Other diseaseet are either cured, proMptly or tenell- ()rated bY his remedy. An official at- alysie showed this -nostrum to con - shit of glycerine and a little thYdri- iodic Acid. The Medical Council evi- dently believed that no man acquaint- ed with the Action of different drugs, as 'a physician should be, could bon- estly adtiertise to the public that these two simple subetAnces have any sue, Marvellous power. 'In • other words tee accused was disbiplined for can- died which, in the opinion of the cannel -1, involved fraud. The: council hes not, however, deprived Dr. Crich- ton o the ;Means of earning his bread. He can still go on selling his nose, trim to thoee who wish to buy it, the only difference _being that be 'Mist do so as a layman and 110t as a physician. Nor is he without e - course' as to • his sentence. The ace tiori of the council is Subject to an apPeal to the court,- and 4f he •has justice on his side there 40 no dotibt the council will •have to :reinstate hire." The Ontario Government tit Tor- onto, are dismissing Pberals from office, while the Dominion .Govern- ment, at Ottawa, are appointing Tor - Led 'to office. This is rendering good for , eyil with seriptural zeal, but, ecriptural as it mi.,. be, It ,will not be very highly commended by the Lib- eral friends and supporters of the Ottawa Government. The latest sam- ple of this ,enagna.nimity is the ap- pobetment by the Department of Mili- tia of Mr. L. W. Shannon. of King- ston, to the position of 'military pay master for the ,Eastern Ontario Command.
