During the last year we imported from that coun- try $3,123,660 worth. Russia bought $2,294,440, and France and the Argentine Republic a little less. :I' —Another month brings its rec- ord of fires and fire loss to be add- ed to the dismal array of destruc- tion by fires in the United States and Canada. We find from the records of the New York Journal of Commerce that the fire loss for June shows a total of $14,684,350, or $4,000,000 more than the sum chargeable against the same month in the preceding year. —A large delegation of stock breeders waited upon the Govern- ment at Ottawa, on June 23rd, ask- ing a grant of $100,000 towards making an exhibit of pure-bred stock from Canada at St. Louis in 1904, being $20,000 for expenses, $70,000 for prizes and $10,000 for contingencies. Hon. Mr. Fisher thought the first item too small, but the second was new to him. Consideration was promised. —The C. P. R. sold 2,639,529 acres of Northwest land during the year ending June 30 for $9,698,950. That was over $3.50 per acre. The company received, all told, 25,000,- 000 acres of land, besides cash and finished railway, as a bonus for the building of its main line. Even if the selling price of the land is aver- aged at $3 per acre, that would make a total of $75,000,000—more than enough to build and equip the whole road. —The New Zealand Government has appointed two dairy experts to organize and improve the export of dairy produce to the British mar- kets. One is from -Canada and one from Denmark, and each receives $2,000 annually, with allowances for residence. They will be jointly responsible for carrying out the important developments which the New Zealand Government is con- templating in competition with Canada and other countries. —Despatches from Europe de- clare that war between Bulgaria and Turkey is inevitable. This constant fear of the troublesome —The Morgan steamship com- bine has not captured the ocean trade and may not prove the gi- gantic spectre that was feared and expected. The charge has repeat- edly been made in English news- papers that the ships were taken into the combine at an exorbitant valuation, and that not enough were obtained to make the com- bine the chief factor in fixing ocean tariffs. A London despatch to the New York Evening Post a few days ago said: There is a feeling here that reconstruction of the Morgan shipping Trust may be necessary. The facts of the mat- ter are—that the combine first bought our boats at enormous prices and then had to face a vast redundancy in ocean tonnage when the shipping employed in transport service was released by the ending of the Boer war. —T. Thomas Fortune (colored) who recently was sent as a Special Commissioner to the Hawaiian Islands and the Philippines to as- certain what conditions there were suited to the American Negro, says —"Living there at present is ex- pensive, but under proper govern- mental conditions it is the ideal place for the Negro. It is the cli- mate he likes, or, at least, the cli- mate he can stand. The whites cannot live there and make a liv- ing. If the white man lives there at all, it is as a parasite. The Fil- ipino and the Negro can get along splendidly in a social way. It seems that the whites and the Ne- groes cannot, and it is just as much a matter of general knowledge that the white man and the Filipino cannot agree. I long for the time when the Afro-American may go to the Philippines and live there as he should and would." .I: —That pronounced Liberal Goldwin Smith, writing in the Weekly Sun says—After all the rancor, calumny, trickery, expense and corruption of a party election, followed by the unwholesome scenes of the struggle in the elec- tion courts, and then by the Gamey affair, with the fury of fac- tion which it awakened, and the ultimate defeat of justice, to what have we come? We have come to a Government tainted by the process which it has undergone, with more than half the voters of the Province arrayed against it, and with a Par- liamentary majority of four, so that it is at the mercy of any 'three buc- caneers. Such a Government will inevitably be tempted to maintain itself in power by means akin to those by which it has so narrowly escaped defeat; if not by actual corruption, by unscrupulous use of patronage, by concessions to sinis- ter interests, and by demagogic legislation. 1.M AD C ANV,1=1, July 10 T903 1 THE PEOPLE'S POPULAR STORE Macdonald Block, Wingham.
