—Still the combines nourish, and
there are rumors of other immense
aggregations, J. Carling Kelly,, an
Ottawa promoter, has under way
the organization of an immense pa-
per combine, which will include
eleven of the largest paper mills in
England, with over $25,000,000
capital. Those mills will acquire
2,000 acres of pulp, which is locat-
ed near Ottawa, and on which the
proposed combination holds an op-
tion.

—Donald Guthrie, inspector of
registry offices, has issued his re-
port for 1901. Compared with the
previous year it shows the follow-
ing registi'ies : Number of instru-
ments registered in 1901, 120,193 ;
1900, 119,941; increase, 9,252 ; to-
tal fees earned, gross, 1901, $195,-
595.03 ; 1900, $184,326.12 ; in-
crease, $1 1,268.91 ; the net fees are
as follows : For 1901, $107,466.11 ;
for 1900, $104,365.26; increase,
$3,100.86,

—The Toronto Telegram remarks
thusly :—" The Ontario Govern-
ment can pass a dozen Conmee Bills
and other laws to confer privileges
on corporations without a single
blunder. The Ontario Government
cannot pass a single law to restore
rights to municipalities without a
dozen blunders. The workings of
the Ontario Government are per-
fect when it makes laws for the
benefit of corporations. The On-
tario Government bungles and fails
only when it pretends to make
laws for the benefit of munici-
palities."
—Canada stands eighth in point
of ownership of vessel tonnage
among the nations of the earth,
leading Spain, Sweden, Holland,
Denmark, Greece, Japan, Turkey
and other countries, As of yore,
Britain heads the list, the United
States being second, then Germany,
Norway, France, Italy, Russia and
Canada, The number of new ves-
sels built and registered in the Do-
minion of Canada during the last
year was 325, measuring 34,481
tons register tonnage, Estimating
the value of the new tonnage at
$45 per ton, it gives a total value
of $1,551,645 for new vessels.

---In a speech last :;eek, Hon. J.
R. Stratton, Provincial Secretary,
stated as follows
"The troubles of a Minister's
daily duties were such that he
would be better off in private
life. The life of a Minister was
the Iife of a dog; he had no show;
he had to work all the time, to
listen to everybody, to smile all
the time."
If this be true it seems strange that
so many aspire to the position. It
is also strange, if a Minister of the
Crown has "the life' of a dog," that
those who now occupy the offices
and suffer "the life of adog" make
such desperateefforts to remain in
office, and thus prolong their own
sufferings. 'Tis strange indeed.

—The eleventh annual report of
the Bureau of Mines has come to
hand, showing a total production
of minerals in 1901 amounting to
$11,831,086, as compared with $3,-
298,624 in 1900. The two largest
items in the list of metallic pro-
ducts are nickel and pig iron. The
value of the nickel output was $1,-
859,970 and of the pig iron product
$1,701,703. The production of
these two metals in 1898 was, nickel
$514,220 and pig iron $530,789.
Gold shows a slight falling off, the
value of the output of 14,203 oun-
ces in 1901 being.$244,443, as com-
pared with $297,861 the year pre-
vious. The yield of silver was
151,400 ounces of the value of
$84,830, as compared with. 160,612
ounces in 1900 worth $96,367.

—A strike, as a result of a disa-
greement between Capital and La-
bor, is a very costly thing, view it
from whatever standpoint you may.
To the worker, it means loss of
time and wages; to his family,
very often, lack of the comforts, if
not the necessaries of Iife ; to the
capitalist, loss of profit on output
and the result of idle machinery ;
to the nation, cost of polies and
military watchfulness. All these
are seen in the great coal strike
that has been in progress in Penn-
sylvania for over four months, It
is estimated that the total loss to
workers, owners, etc., at the end
of the sixteenth Week of the strike,
reaehett the enormous !amount of
eighty-seven million dollars ; and
the end of the strike is not yet in
sight.

—The Montreal Herald (Liberal)
gives Hon. G. W. Ross a very de-
cided hint as to the course he
ought to pursue, The Herald says
"Since the days of Sir Robert
Peel no Minister has cared to
hold on to office on the mere
strength of his majority in the
House, once he has become con-
vinced that he is not similarly
strong outside."
Yes, and when that majority is
only ono, and that as uncertain as
North Grey, the case is still
stronger. Yet Mr. Ross, instead
of considering the popular verdict,
sends for Vance, whose connection
with unsavory eleeetion trials has
w
been proven by the Courts, in the
hope that Vance can help him defy
the verdict of the popular majority,
that he may remain in power.
How are the mighty fallen 1.
EFFECTS OF MOIST SEA,SQN.
(Stratford Herald.)
The excessive rains have no
doubt resulted in damage More or
less to the farmers. The loss in
harvesting the immense hay crop,
particularly, has been considerable.
But there is never so much loss but
there is some gain, and the gain
this year would seem to overbal-
ance the loss. The rains have
made this season a record -breaker
for pasture. The cattle have been
in clover as, perhaps, never before.
The result is, that up to the last
reports, there have this year been
shipped from Montreal 1,026,196
boxes of cheese, against only 770,-
152 boxes last year ; an increase of
246,044 boxes this, year, so that the
rain fall of which we Have com-
plained so much may be credited
with nearly a quarter of a million
boxes of cheese, worth probably
$6.50 a box, equal, $1,250,000.
The effects on the butter shipments
have been equally marked. This
time last year the shipments had
reached 180,622 packages; so far
this year they total 228,314 packa-
ges, an increase of 47,692 packages
of 56 pounds each. This would be
an increase of 2,670,752 pounds.
When the farmers complain of the
losses from the rains of this season,
they should take a measure of satis-
faction from the gains as well.
PROSPERITY AND POLITICS.
(Hamilton Spectator./
The official announcement from
Ottawa that Canada's total foreign
trade for the fiscal year 1901-02 to-
talled $423,910,444, an increase` of
$37,007,287 over that of the pre-
ceding year, and an increase of
$184,885,084 over that of 1896,
proves most delightful reading to
the patriotic Canadian. Nor less
pleasing is the more detailed infor-
mation that our total imports for
the past year were $212,270,158, a
gaily of 821,854,633 over the year
previous, and an excess of $94,-
258,650 over 1896; and that our
total exports for the past twelve-
month were valued at 8211, 640,286,
an excess of $$15,152,654 over the
preceding year, and of $90,626,434
over 1896.
We refuse, however, to follow
The Globe in crediting this remark-
able trade development to the be-
neficent influence of a Liberal re-
gime. Canada his under the boun-
ty of Providence shared in an era
of prosperity which has been prac-
tically world-wide in extent, and if
we look for immediate reasons for
the fine showing recently recorded
we shall find them in the South
African war, which absorbed vast
quantities of our live stock, food-
stuffs and fodder at high prices ; in
the enormous harvests with which
the country has been blessed, and
in the accompanying great indus-
trial activity, which latter may be
fairly regarded as one of the excel-
lent cumulative results of the Na-
tional Policy, inaugurated and car-
ried out for years by the Liberal
Conservative party.
