August 13, i 9o3 OI ANT OF FINAlllCl , Latest official returns issued by the Portuguese Government Show that no less than 82 per cent, of the inhabitants of Portugal— that is to say, over four million of a total population of five million --- tare entirely illiterate, mud as such are debarred from the polls. I —On its 1,300 miles of road in Michigan, Nviscousin and Minne- sota, the Canadian Pacific Railway pays in taxes $241,809, an average, of $186 per mile. On its 7,300 mites of road in Canada it pays in taxes 8142,222, an average of $19.45 per mile. In the United States it has received no bonuses, In Cana- da it has received in donations in money and lands over one hundred million dollars. --What a restless world this is anyhow I At one time rumors of wars, disturbances, outbreaks, ca lainities, etc., etc.. At one time, Russia and Japan are preparing- for a mighty struggle; .at another time the breaking up of the Turkish em pire is in sight, and a war is at hand to decide how much shall go to this nation and how much t that. Mankind have much to learn --and forget that this old world is in the hands of an over -ruling Pro- vidence, who "maketh the wrath of man to praise him," 1. The Liberator, viewing the political situation from a temper &nee Standpoint, among ocher things says, "The disrepute into which the Government has been brought by the Stratton—Gamey scandal will prove a heavy handi- cap to them. In response to the demand of the Referendum vote, Air, Ross' promised temperance legislation is known to be. a make- shift, even to his own long-suffer- ing temperance supporters. Evi- dently the prospect for the Govern- ment is not without its tinge of gloom. Ahead of them is still the question whether they will 'fight' or 'go'. What if the bye -elections precipitate a Provincial general election 2" CONSERVATIVES I ORGANIZE I Everything now points to a gen- eral election in the near future. Sir Wilfrid Laurier has decided to appeal to the people, before they have time to fully realize the in- iquity of the Grand '.[trunk Pacific scheme. The Liberal party hopes the deal will bring them a large campaign fund, with which it will endeavOur to purchase the right to dispose of $75,000,000 of the peo- ple's money. Canada is face to face with one of the gravest crisises in her his- tory. It is the daty of every voter to assist in defeating a government whose record abounds in broken pledges, and who seeks to impose on Canadians a very heavy burden, The Liberal machine, which will commit any crime to win power, must be beaten if the true welfare of Canada is to be safeguarded. It remains for the Conservative party to avert the threatened disaster. This can only be done by perfecting its organization, and no time should be lost in commencing hard work. The machine will endeavor to sur- prise its opponents, who must be ready for any emergency, The present is the time for aetion. , If the government policy carries, it means a tax of $75 on every family in Canada, and this can. be pre- vented by united, prompt and un- ceasing effort. I . THE NATIONAL COST OF THE; GRAND TRUNK PACIFIC. (Weekly Sun.) Sir Wilfrid Laurier says that the total cost of the Grand'Txilnjz Paci- fic to the country will not be more than $33,000,000. This, he esti- mates, will be the amount of in- terest which the Government will have to pay, during the .first seven years of operation; on the cost of the road between Moncton and Winnipeg, and the amount of in- terest on the bondi3 issued in re- spect of the mountain section. Sir Wilfrid does not, however, appear to take into consideration the In. terest on the moneys that will be applied on construction work before the road is ready for operation. Tor is it at all certain that the cost of construction will be kept within the figures given. On the whole, It seems probable that on the basis of interest alone, Sir Wilfrid's esti- mate will be exceeded, But, in addition to the interest charged, the Government borrows the amount required to construct the eastern oeatim of the road, which will be at least $50,000,000, slid may be much more. When the lease expires we shall have the road, but it does not follow that we shall bye able to get our money out of it. It ;tea Intercolonial had been under lease sad were to Come back on our hands today, how Could we got our money out of it, or !low could we operate it—except at a lora 7 If, however, the road should prove to be m sound enterprise from a eoinmereial standpoint, we should be fully secured and the total cost would be the iptierest we should. pay As 'above mentioned The Government (toubtless taken 0,0 a view drat the ro#A will pay. (From the Banking WoVId.) Who is J. Plerpout Morgan 2 He is not only the world's ring of Z� inance to -day, but the greatest financier in all history. He has a voioe in the control of properties capitalized at 86,488,- 000,000 --more wealth than was ever before in the hands of one man. This amount is greater by over one billion dollars, than the entire revenue of the 43 principal nations of the world. It is greater by two billion dollars than all the world's gold, coined or uncoined, There is at present in the United States' Treasury $550,000,000 of gold and gold certificates (an un- precedeated amount) and yet the capital controlled by J, Pierpont Morgan is six billion dollars greater 'than this vast amount now in the Treasury of the United States. J, Pierpont Dorgan is the head of the world-wide transportation Trust, with 16 steamship lines and 44 railway systems; it has 300 of the largest steamers, and 30,000 passenger and freight trains, the two branches a land mileage of 108,500 miles, and a sea tonnage of - twelve million tons, Hence Mor- gan is the grand stage -driver and ferryman of the world. o He is the only man on earth, whose life has been insured by English investors and speculators for two million dollars, who paid therefor, a premium of nine per cent. The same fraternity insured the life of Queen Victoria for two million dollars. 1. CANADA'S FOREST PRODUCTS. Canada is likely to spring a sur- prise at the World's Fair of 1904 with her exhibit of lumber and timber. Of most direct interest to the people of the United States, perhaps, is the record of Canada in the wood -pulp industry last year, The Statistical Year Book of Cana- da, just to hand and compiled by George Johnson, F. S. S., the offi- cial Statistician of the Dominion Department of Agriculture, sum- marize the wood -pulp industry as follows: The value of the wood, blocks and other forms of crude export for pulp was $1,315,038 in 1902, of which the United States took $I,- 194,593, and Great Britain only 81.20,446 --other countries nothing. Of the prepared wood -pulp the ex- port from Canada was valued at $2,046,398 for the same year, the United States taking $1,170,400 worth, and Great Britain $818,580; other countries,, $57,418 worth. The wood -pulp industry of Cana- da for the calendar year 1902 was carried on by thirty-five mills 21 Toilet Sets, new shape, roll edge basin, good material, splendid flnish, 10 pieces, Price ................ $2,50.
