another for bones. A correct diet will
not only nourish a particular part of
the body, but it will sustain every

the total importation of food ,staples
by Vie United :Kingdom, amount-
ing t^1 about $900,000,000 a year,
the 'United States furnishes about
$540,000,000, or 00 per cent. For
meat alone the United States re-
ceives $100,000,000, and of the
trade in breadstuffs about $150,-

This writer is not probably aware
of the immense and rapid develop-
ment of the Canadian Northwest.
He has not taken into account the
millions of bushels of wheat and
the vast possibilities for increase in
acreage in the great wheat -produc-
ing area of our great west. Ile has
also forgotten that our western
prairies have special advantages for
stock -raising ; this is also a rapidly
developing business in the west.
These two facts, with the excellent
railway facilities for conveying the
products to the seaboard, will, we
venture to say, soon put Britain
independent of the United States
for her food supply. Besides, there
are other dependencies of the em-
pire that can furnish their share.
There need be no uneasiness on the
question of food 'supply, while the
development of our western pro-
vinces continues, and it has only
properly begun.

-For the fiscal year ending June
30th last, the immigrants arriving
in Canada, according to the Gov-
ernment returns, numbered as fol-
lows : British, 17,000 ; continent,
23,535; United States, 24,099. In
the previous year the figures were
11,810, 19,352 and 17,987, respec-
tively. Altogether, including by
estimate a few returns yet to come
to hand, the immigration to Cana-
da for the year just passed will
amount probably to 65,000 people,
or some 11,000 more than the pre-
vious year.

200 feet thick at the bottom, 300
feet high from. the base of the foun-

located three miles from I'eekekill,
the top of the dam being 216 feet
above tidewater and 100 feet above
the-, reservoir in Central Park.
Work has been in progress eight
years and will continue three years
longer. The estimated cost of the
dam was $4,150,573, but $1,000,000
additional will be required.

-It is stated in the daily papers
that a Boston inventor has patent-
ed a device for insuring privacy in
conversation by telephone. This
arrangement automatically locks all
telephones on a circuit, except the
two that are in use, so that their
bells will not ring, and practically,
transforms the line between the
two persons who are talking; into a
private. wire. As the current is
confined by this means to a portion
of the line, it is claimed that there
is a saving in electric energy, and
that it may be possible to use short
distance instruments, with th,e aid
of the apparatus, to talk over a
long-distance line,

=A machine for laying railroad
tracks is being used in Pennsylva-
nia. It has proved itself capable,
with a crew of forty men, of put-
ting down two miles of track in a
day. The track -layer has a huge
crane, sixty feet long, which pro-
jects forward over the road, and it
hauls behind it a, train of sixteen
flat oars loaded with ties and rails.
A continuous double line of the
Iatter moves forward over rollers
and carries the ties with it. Both
rails and ties are seized at the pro-
per point by the machinery and
placed on the road in front of the
train, where they shortly form part
of the track over which it passes.
This device is said to be the most
rapid and the most economical me-
chanical track -layer invented.

-"Bystander," who writes for
the Weekly Sun, is a Liberal.
Discussing the political situation,
he says : -
"The Ontario Government is
now left with a precarious ma-
jority of one, in face,of a popular
majority on' the other side, Its
strength is not likely to be in-
creased by any bye -elections
which may occur, because its
command of patronage has be-
come very uncertain, while tide -
waiters will be apt to look upon
the Opposition as the rising tide.
This is an awkward predicament.
It is a sort of political interreg-
num presenting dangerous oppor-
tunities for corruption and in-
trigue. The best course probably
would be a speedy meeting of the
Legislature. We should then
have a decisive vote, followed, if
necessary, by a fresh appeal to
the country. Such, unquestion-
ably, would be the course taken
in England,"
BRITAIN'S FOOD SUPPLY.
4A writer in the North American
Review makes some startling asser-
tions regarding the extent to which
the food supply of Great Britain is
in the control 'of the United States.
ITe says :-
"If the 'United States were and-
denly to stop all present regular
exportations of meat and bread -
stuffs to the United Kingdom, the
firi;t effect would be an enormous
riFe in prices throughout Europe,
and it would be but a few weeks
before the English people would bo
threatened by dire famine, with no
po . ible relief i11 sight so long as
commercial relations with the Unit-
ed States were suspended." The
writer then proceeds to offer a
znathernatical demonstration of the
soundness of his assertions: "01
SNAP SHOTS.
(Toronto Telegram.)
Quebec elects five members to
represent a Conservative voting
strength of 90,000 and sixty mem-
bers to represent a Liberal voting
strength of 105,000,
Quebec Liberals have one mom-
ber for every 1,800 votes polled,
and Quebec -Conservatives have one
member for every 18,000 votes
polled.
The right of majorities to rule is
uo longer sacred in the sight of
Liberals. The fact that Mr. Ross
has polled less than a majority of
the votes is treated as an unimpor-
tant incident. The Liberals of
1837 Were 'driven to rebellion by
just such unimportant incidents.
Liberal journals laugh at the right
of the majority to rule in 1902, and
the organs of the Family Compact
did no worse in 1537.
North Grey was the scene either
of a robbery or a miracle. It was
robbery if the ballots were spoiled
after the polls closed, and it was' a
miracle if the ballots were spoiled
while the polls were open. Apply
mathematics to the case. and there
does not appear to be one chance
in a million or in ten million that
the Forth Grey ballots were spoiled
in the ordinary course of nature.
Build up Ontario would be a good
motto for a government that did
not have to work overtime building
up its own majority.
MINORITY RULE.
The majority -should rule, but in
Ontario, by reason of the infamous
gerrymander, we have minority
rule. The revised election returns
to this date show' the popular ma-
jority for Mr. Whitney 'to have
been 7,328, as follows :-
Conservative majorities . 21467
Liberal majorities 14139
Majority for Whitney 7328
The average majority is 365Fair-
ly distributed, the vote would have
elected 38 members to support Mr.
Ross and 60 to support Mr, Whit-
ney. Mr. Whitney is thus entitled
to a majority of 22 in the House.
Though over seven thousand in the
minority, Mr. Ross still clings rtto
office. Yet we call ours a "repre-
sentative government." If it is, it
is so badly twisted out of shape
that it is scarcely recognizable,
