Such eon - duct here would be considered al- most barbarous. Yet no one will deny that pursuing that line of ac- tion there is little danger of any man, not an actual slave to the habit, becoming intoxicated.— [Guelph Herald. w —The Bobcaygeon Independent' thus speaks of our subsidy system : " Subsidies and bonuses to the amount of hundreds of millions of dollars have been given to private individuals and private railway companies as free gifts, and the people have no share in the profits of the railways nor any control over their management or charges. Such a system exists in no other country. The Canadian railways, largely built with the Canadian people's money, not only give those people no return for their money, but charge them the highest rates for transportation that are charged by any railway on this 'continent. The American railways carry freight much cheaper than the Ca- nadian railways, and the American railways have received no subsidies or bonuses from the American people." E f —Prof. Goldwin Smith writes as follows : a`If the meeting of the Ontario Legislature is to be put off till the ordinary time, and in the meantime nothing is to be done, we have before us a battle of several months in the election courts be- tween the two parties, each of them desperately struggling to turn the wavering scale in its own favor. The temptation, not only to in- trigue, but to corruption, will be ;treat, and a serious strain will be laid on popular confidence in the judiciary. This is not a satisfac- tory outlook. The proper course surely is an early meeting of the Legislature, at which a decisive vote would be taken, and followed, if necessary, by a fresh appeal to the people. The Provincial Pre- mier, it is to be hoped, will soon be at his post, confront the situation, and declare his intentions." * * —There was a time when pork from United States farms almost entirely supplied the wants of Can- ada for that article.

H. KERR. Big Clearing P During the Month of August. I From Friday, August the Ist, to Saturday, August the 30th A DISCOVERY. (Hamilton Spectator.) The cat is out of the bag. The British people have made the grand discovery that the Laurier govern- ment boosted the tariff on goods imported from England, and then knocked off the "boost" in order to show a "preference" for British goods. It has taken John Bull a long time to tumble ; but at Iength even Sir 'Wilfrid's friends of the Cobden club have been made aware of the fact that it was Uncle Sam and not John Bull who got the real preference in the Canadian market. Harry Co; secretary of the Cobden club, has written to the London 'Times about it. He says : "The Canadian tariff, in spite of the no- minal British preference, is actual- ly more favorable to the United States than to Great Britain." ''The special favor shown to United States products was deliberately in- creased at the very moment that the nominal British preference was given, so that what was given to Great Britain with one hand was largely taken away with the other." ''Taking the year 1901 and con- trasting it with the average for five years preceding the adoption of the preferential tariff, I find that Cana- dian imports from Great Britain have increased 23 per cent., from Germany 31 per cent., from the United States 93 per cent., from 1 France 102 per cent. and from Bel- gium. 421, per cent. Thus relative- ly to other countries there has been a decline of British goods entering Oanada." EDUCATIONAL CHANGES. 7 • THE TREATING HABIT. A writer in the Buffalo Express urges the abolition of the treating habit and suggests the est-ablissh1 of teachers. and with the concur -1 hent of an anti -treating society.
