,'1hertwaddlere who talk in favor
.-.of continental union aver that our
rtaxatiou would be reduced and the
'4100 sarios of life cheapened, which
tome now expensive owing to our
,toneroue tarif ,were we,commenially
if not politically annexed to the
.Ynited States. What seneelei3s
dlrubbiah. Continental union means
a tariff of 60 per cent in Canada as
4againet our present 27 per cent
tariff: If a 27 per cent tariff increases
Atte cost of living what would a 60
Ther vent tariff do. Any ten year
•old school boy would be.ashamed
do make such asinine statements as
' 1io continental annexationists do.
Tho Globo keeps up a seneloss
'}larping on the drawbacks that must
inevitably result from Canada de -
;pending upon a market 3000 miles
.sway for the sale of our surplus
:farm products. Suppose we had
free trade with the States, how
would that lessen the distance be-
' ween Canada and 13ritain 3 It is
ittie veriest bosh to assume it would•
The United States aro farther from
fitritain than we are, and it is there
they find their market for
she very same class of farm products
,hat we have to sell. If the
Americans can profitably sell their
:surplus farm products in Britain or
Europe, what is to prevent Cana-
alians doing so? IIad we free trade
with the States Canada would be a
:Aumping ground for both their
statural and manufactured products.
...4tnd, besides, we should be dopriv-
id of a very largo part of the carrying
:trade with we now possess; and the
aiofita from which add so largely
the employment of our people
and the wealth of the country. •
CURRENT TOPICS.
MAY BR EXTRADITED.
There is some rumor that the
1':"i .overnment were considering that
.oxivieability of taking steps to extra-
ite`Owen E. Murphy and Robert
H. McGreevy, who are in the Unit-
-,ed States. It is a questiou in the
-opinion of leading officials of the
Department of Justice whether their
offences would corue within the ex,
-tradition treaty, broad as it is, and
:also a question, whether the plea of
their being wanted for political
seasons could not be successfully
raised in their behalf.
'HAAs CARTWRIGHT THE PREACHER?
He was a stranger from out west.
tldfo paused as he went inside the
u oor of the city church and whisper,
Red to the usher :
"Sermon's begun hain't it?"
:'Yes," answered the usher.
•"What'she preachin' about?"
d"I hardly know yet. The text is
tae first verse of the second chapter
oaf Lamentatious—"
"I don't want to hear him," said
mise stranger, with decision, as he
*sacked hastily out of the door.
Ete's a calamity howler."
GALLANT Bon.
Some of the papers, in referring
qua Colonel Ingersoll's remarks at. a
%magnet last week, made hits say
t iz.at he would rather go to eternal
a arment with the woman 110 loved
than to heaven if women were not
e here. This immensely delighted a
'<certain young woman, who soon
:after took occasion to tell him so.
As, Colonel heard her through
,smilingly and then said : [[Yes,
Tem, very nice, indeed, only I never
,said it." This was a blow, but his
oyes twinkled, so she asked him
':shat he had said. He took up a
Ran and wrote for a monient in
.silence, handed her tho.paper and
said : `'Ager° now, how does that
p1oase you!" This was what he had
ca-ritten : "According to the theolo-
zians woman brought all the trouble
tanto this world. If this is true,
(lien I had rather live with the wo,
atzan I Iovo'in a world full of trouble
dlhon to live in heaven with nobody
;kat ..anon.":...And the woman liked
it better, ever so much.

fatality which occurred on the line
90 miles south of Winnipeg. One
day last week during a blizzard a
father and his daughter sot out
from Matlock, Minn., to Drayton
in Dakota, where the daughter was
to meet her affianced. The hour
when the marriage was to be
solemnized arrived, the young pian
was anxiously looking for the bride,
but she never came. The young
plan became anxious, and with a
friend drove out in the direction
from whence he expected the bride.
To his great alarm he found a horse
and rig owned by the father of the
young girl, and on further search
the bodies of the missing ones frozen
stiff.
