ON bttot' at ..v.ev.P —Prominent amongst the speakers at the big Laymen's convention held in Toronto was Sir Andrew Fraser, He has just returned from India, where he was Governor of Bengal, and it is interesting to hear what he has to say' of the unrest there. Ap- parently Sir Andrew does not think it is serious, The pauses of such unrest as exists, lie states to be there; First, the increase cost of the necessities of life, which have fallen heavily upon people of fixed income ; second, the displacement of labor arising from the introduction of machinery ; and, third, the agitation on the part of the educated classes, who are but a very small minority of the population, for a larger share in executive govern- ment, The natives hold many im- portant positions, the next man in of- fice to Sir Andrew himself having been a native. Legislative councils, with large native representation, have been granted the different pi evinces, but thus far no native has been ap- pointed on the executive of the Vice- roy. This, however, will doubtless come in time, Britain's policy being to extend the privileges of the people as rapidly as possible, and meantime to alleviate industrial conditions in every way possible. .E.SPIMI;a_.,,,. .�:.- King's For Bargains I We Want Your Trade Su Gloves We've just put into stock a fine ratge of and tAt Gloves in the leading shades in Lisle and Kid, and in long and short lengths.

Wihes Forty -Seven lViillions Ottawa, .April 11.—The official state• meat for the flscal year, published in the Canada Gazette, is limited to re- ceipts and payments which have pass- ed through the books of the Finance Department.. As a rule it is three months after the close of the year be - fora all the outstanding claims aro adjusted. The statement shows an increase in the public debt of nearly forty-seven million dollars. Official figures show the tot4revenues of the. year ending March 31 to have been $83,100,5x5, as cpm sil•ed with ' $94,705,98., for the pre- p ceeding year, a decrease of about elev- en and a half million dollars. The ex- penditures, ou the other hand, have increased. They are : (1) Ourrent ex- penditures, $71,535,700 (an increase of $6,500,00) ; capital expenditure $41,524- 420 (an increase of $1.3,400,000) While the gross excess of expenditure over income for the year is about $30,000,- 000, the public debt has increased by a larger amount. This difference is, in part, accounted for by the formal as- sumption of the $0,000,000 loss from the Quebec bridge fiasco. Interest on the debt and charges for now loans, and refunding of old loans, make up a coneideraale portion of the remainder. —A. curious incident occurred in the Commons recently. One of the poli- tical conditions which obtain in the West is the existence of a swarm of small newspapers printed in the ver- nacular of the several continental European nations which are attaining such formidable numerical strength in the West ; these newspapers are very largely supported by the Dominion Government; and they are Liberal in politics ; the public money is used to keep up these electioneering ageneies, Mr. Bradbury some time ago asked for a return of the moneys paid since 1897 to one of these, an Icelandic weekly published at Winnipeg, called The Loberg. The return came down with a statement that the only moneys paid had been $541 paid by the Public Works department; a note was ap• pended saying that the other Depart- ments reported "nil." The facts are that the Auditor General's report shows that last year alone this news- paper drew about $4,700; and the total payments to this weekly since 1897 are in excess of $25,000. Mr. Bradbury brought the matter up in the House, and the Government, with some agita- tion, promised a corrected return, which came clown early in the even- ing. The exact payments were $25,604. How To Remove Warts. It's really a simple matter to remove warts and callouses if you apply Put- nam's Corn and Wart Extractor.

"Speculation" Vs. 66 Investrnent " It must appeal to the° sound common sense of every think- ing Ivan or woman, that the return from an investment is in almost direct ratio to the risk. Stock speculation, mining, and other similar ventures promise big returns, and involve big risk. Savings deposits pay small dividends in interest—but they pay it. Safe, sure, certain -- at regular intervals your interest is paid in cash ; and, your money is still there, to be given back to you at once, when required. It is this comfortable feeling of security that has induced many shrewd investors to forego the attraction of large profits on their money, offered by other forms of investment, and caused them to keep •substantial sums on deposit in a chartered Babk where the Dividend is sure ; paid every six months ; and the principal available whenever required. ' THE BANK OF HAMILTON invites investment de- posits, and is prepared to receive them on most favorable terms. °BA C. P.
