The manu- iacturers have known this for some time, The retailers have been made wise by the price quotations for future delivery and perhaps the consumer has had some inkling of such a condi- tion. High prices are going to be the order of of the day. For the Time Bei FROM ONTARIO'S CAPITAL. . _ ;Toronto, Autgu,st 10tia, 1915. Police Magistrate Col.

A few &Dye ago he sentenced a, wifelbeater to im- prwtnnient for sixty Klay,sand to re- helVe fah; lashes When half of the terra was served.

Silks, taffetas andwoollens have gone em 80 to 100 per cent., while, nn the other band, there has been a re- duction in cotton. Ser.ges, mecause of the diffieulty •iii hopottation, 'have ad- .vanced materially, as have also boots iatrid shoes. Hata on the other hand, have been. reduced, especially panarnas. These increases, of course, take in ac- count to a very large degree the in- creases in the • tariff levied for war perpeses, but they do inot take into account the increaaes in the direct tax- ation leviedby the enimicipalities, but these have arodunted to mills 'a few mills on the dollar. -, • The recards of the Torento police daring th,e past year ',entirely upset the theory "thatehard, time and crime go hand in hand, declared Staff Ser- geant David McKinney of thetMorality Department recently.

'Thus the Govern- ment accepted respeneibility for seeing nett each child received a proper ,edu- cation and at the same time seeing that the English language was pre- served in .a11 schools. No doubt, the Government hoped that it iwould be able to adjust this. without ,going :to the extreme case of lappointing a epee- lal commission, especially as the courts in the meantime had passed upon regulation No. 17 and declared it amend and valid. But patch hopes have not been realized.' The commission has task of administering the =hoots, but athletic yoang tdiers, who having won for the presence of many of these been; appointed and has entered on its great, glory in the new.spa„pers for their fighting qualities in the sports of peace, have 'new a chance to display their prowess in the stern tasks of war. For the credit of Cane.de the recruit- ing officers must get out after tte young Canadians Who have no respon- sibilities to hoid there back. Nobody should be abie to pay that only the o•t-of-werks went from Canada—poor ‘f,eliows who had Hobson's choice, fight or starve. ! Another matter the Militia Depart - trent shoirld take in heed Is pobtic meetings. Recruiting epeechesearea fine thing if they are not tregleng, and ,if they are spoken `by the right man in the right vein. Statesmen are a good drawing card, but it May be laid down as a general rule that one khaki uni- form. that has been at the front Is wortt a carload, of poiltielans. It foi- lowe that recruiting meetings-. should make great play with returned heroes from the battle front. Their spiendid example Is Worth a wiiderne.se of brave words. Moreover, the meetings most be prop- erly nranaged, so that the right kind of audience listens to the speeches and applauds the heroes.' The right kind -of audience ia an audience of possible re- cruits, and.coneeqUently any recruiting ineetlag that les go many platform tickets to stay-at-home patriots that there Is. no room in the body of the halt for the prospective fighters, fails of its pierpoee.

Premier Bor- n and Sir George Perley can are range ali outstanding Canadian ques- tions with the British Government, and that wilt leave Major General Haghes free to mind his own hominess, which, centres largely in a suite of offices on "the tgrouhel 1: loo yf the Wet Block at Ottawa.

One of the greatest problems Major General Hughes has before him is re- crueting, -and the country would be only toe pleased to see him concentrate his bris.k and enterprising intellect on that subject. Not aday should go by that General Hughes does not shed a neve light on its difficuitle..s.

Not abane eir-ed 8L1Ch wells, however, would give the innocent, if greedy, speculators, of a few years as any of their money back. Calgary's real estate* beard is goree also, and with it the crowd of titen who manipulated the rise in " subt10- aa lots, as they were manipulated ettai in 'older cities like Toronto and afon- treal. 'With the boom went the activity la the 'building trade, which at ite height had brought swarms of stoop - masons, bricklayers, carpenters said other artisans to the city. The PoPkile.- tion has dropped from, perhaps, 602900 to 65,000. Recruiting account -ed for mtiOe than 5,000 of the shrinkage, a consid,- erable number have gene back to farm life, where they belong, and the rat have returned to Eastern Canada, the United States or Europe, whence they came.

Moreover. a full realization of pee - sent crop pr-oepe,cts will tend greatly to stimulate the trek of American_ farmers into Ole country. Railways, Governments and banks are co-operat- ing in ancearaging this movement.
