She can claim 407 peaks of an altitude of more than 10,000 feet, 395 of more than 11,000 feet, 233 of more than 12,000, 149 of more than 13,000, and 33 of more than 14,000. * * -Forty-three old-line companies are writing new business in Canada, and twenty of them are Canadian. Some of these twenty are having a strenu- ous time in trying to earn dividends for shareholders and profits for policy- holders. Indeed, amovement is on foot to roll three or four of the smal- ler of them into one, to lessen compe- tition, and to save expense. * - It has been announced by the president of the Great Northern Rail- way Company that the company would' commence the construction of a line from Winnipeg to the Pacific Coast as soon as the Grand Trunk Pacific and the Canadian Pacific Rail- way Companies were in .a position to compete for the carrying of supplies and construction material, this freight to be ready for the first Grand Trunk Pacific trains. The line, it was stated. would be completed from the Pacific Coast through the Rocky Mountains to the prairies by the autumn of 1907. - The people of Canada are asked to provide over seventy-two and a half million dollars to carry on the affairs of this country for nine months - about $70 per family. What do the men who have to provide the money think of it ? Hon. W. S. Fielding in his budget speech said he expected the supplementary estimates to run "something over $2,000,000." Now that these are down they amount to $4,667,910, more than double the Fi- nance Minister's estimate of a month ago. Could there be better justifica- tion of the popular belief that the brakes are off at Ottawa and that the car of State has got beyond control ?- [Weekly Sun. * * -Philip Wagner, of Alberta, an in- terpreter for the Interior Department, was sent to jail for stealing money from iinmigrants for whom he was acting as interpreter. He took an active part on the Liberal side in the recent Alberta elections. On his re- lease from jail he was reappointed to the Government service at $25 a month as immigration commissioner, and $755 a month as interpreter. He is still employed by the Government. Mr. Fowler, in the House, moved that he be dismissed. This angered Hon. Frank Oliver, who referred to the mo- tion as "gutter -snipe politics." Al- though Wagner has been five times in the Criminal Court, and has served two terms with hard labor, he is re- tained in office -another case showing how the present Government takes care of its unsavory followers and puts a premium on wrong -doing. , * * -There will be general approval of the Ontario Government's decision to make a direct offer to the public of the new Provincial 21. per cent. bond issue of $3,000,000. By offering the bonds to the public at first hand the Government aims to save under- writers' and brokers' commissions, and to provide an excellent new rest- ing place for trust and estate funds of all classes. This country has now grown rich enough in accumulated wealth to justify such an experiment in Provincial financing, and We trust that the reception of the loan by the investing public will be satisfactory. The credit of the wealthiest Province of the Dominion is behind it, and the bonds aro exempt from succession duties, and all imposts whatsoever. Moreover, for, the convenience of small investors the issue is broken up into popular blocks of $200, $500 and $1,000. See advt. elsewhere. * ---_The Canadian trade agent in Birmingham speaks in *recent report to the Department of Trade and Com- merce at Ottawa, very encouragingly of the increase in Great Britain's im- ports of Canadian bacon. He gives the official figures of the importations of that article from Canada and other countries for the last two years, whieh show a net beret** of 44,640 cwt. In the ,past /'oat's itripods of bacon, mores than sinned up of Canadian selections alone. That this was not, merely a temporary or fitful expansion ill the consigmnents hither of Canadian ba- con is clearly proved by the fact that Great Britain's imports for the first three months of this year were on the same enlarged scale, the increase from Canada being 01,320 cwt., and front the United States 23,068 cwt., Den- mark showing a decrease of 25,908 cwt., and other countries 7,003 cwt. And it must be remembered that the Canadian bacon trade is young, as compared with that of Denmark or of the United States. ,I. HIDING BEHIND THE DEAD. Last week, in the Commons Air. Brodeur made a statement that re- flected on the leader of the Opposi- tion, Hon. R. L. Borden, who retort- ed -"That is a deliberate falsehood." In commenting on this, The Toronto News says :-"Mr. Borden, in his re- port upon Mr. Brodeur, that the Minister was guilty of deliberate false- hood, said exactly what the circum- stances demanded. It seems clear that the Department of Marine has been a nest of rottenness. Whether Mr. Prefontaine was or was not re- sponsible for the general looseness and corruption which prevailed in his Department, need not now be deter- mined. There was looseness, corrup- tion and rottenness, and it is sheer weakness and cowardice for Mr. Bro- deur to hold up the body of the dead Minister as a shield for the Govern- ment which has gone to extraordinary lengths to prevent investigation into the methods of the Department and to defend the rascally practice which have distinguished its administration. Sir Wilfrid Laurier made Mr. Prefon- taine Minister of Marine. He knew what was his record in municipal poli- tics. He could not expect that other methods would be practiced in his conduct of a national department. The whole action of Ministerialists in the Arctic Committee and in the House has been designed to conceal the truth and to prevent identifica- tion of the rascals who have plunder- ed the country. Practically the Ministers have assumed responsibility„ for the methods and policy of the Marine Department, and to that re- sponsibility they should be held be- fore Parliament and the people." YOUNG MAN, DON'T DRINK. Under the above heading the follow- ing, by Rev. John F. Hill, D. D., ap- pears in the editorial columns of the Kansas City World : The young man who drinks strong liquor is like the commander of a for- tified city who deliberately admits a known enemy within its walls. Drink is more hostile and more deadly than any army. It has sent more men, to destruction and, death than have all the armies of the world. There is nothing in it. You cannot gain by it; you may lose everything, health, position, reputation, self-re- spect, manhood, soul. The first drink admits a dernon that every success drink strengthens until some day it may be strong enough to dominate and glut its ravenous appe- tite with our brain and blood. Don't deceive yourself about your strength. You know nothing about that until the test comes, and then it often is too late. You may never be sure you have the strength to resist until you have asserted that strength by resistance. To resist once or twice, or a dozen times, does not prove a strength to resist always. It can be proved only by constant and unfailing resistance. Any man can resist sometimes. The only man who can have absolute con- fidence in his power to resist is he who never drinks at all. If you have the strength use it. Assert it now. One drink more may be too much. Be strong right now, It is your best chance. Strong young man 1 If you can to- day mock at the assertion that one drink is too much, some day you may think the same of ten drinks, and later of twenty. And when that day comes the strength that could not resist one drink, before appetite was formed, will be as a straw in a whirlwind. If you have not the strength and sense to stop drinking right now, when will you have it? Will con- tinued yielding give you added strength or better sense ? When the raveled nerves of a dis- ordered stomach, and the flaccid tis- sues of a softening brain demand whiskey, will you, who could not re- sist when strength and sense were whole and craving was unknown- will yon be better able to resist then P It is not an abstruse question of piety, or ethics, or morality ; it is a simple question of common-sense and health. One does not need to become a drunkard in the gutter to be injured by whiskey. It is poison even in small quantities. Throw Medicines To The Dogs At best they are unpleasant, often useless. You have some disease of the nose throat or lunge. Doctors would call it bronchitis asthma or catarrh. The common root of these diseases is germ or microbio irritation,-Catar- rhozone not only destroys disease germs, it does more, it heals diseased and inflamed tissue. The disease is not only cured. but its return is for- ever prevented by using Catarrho- zone whieh is splendid also for colds, Boughs and irritable throat. Remem- ber you inhale Catarrhozone-Na- ture's own lire ---use no other but Ca- tarrhosona--wit's the best catarrh cute tn&dM. PROVINCIAL LOAN OF $3,000,000.
