MILLS until if ti i wwwwiilillau i wwww ttili#il is -The total immigration to Canada last year was 130,331, and for the year ending June 30th is estimated at 148,- 267. • -What is admired at Ottawa rs not so much breadth of mind as breadth of mouth, facilitating the swallowing of Liberal principles. Toronto News. -Mr. C. C. Castle, Warehouse Com- missioner at Winnipeg, estimates the total acreage under all crops in the Canadian West at 5,800,000. Last year's acreage approximated 4,500,000, so that this year will show an increase of over 1,000,000 acres. +++ -Even among the European sym- pathisers of Russia, Japan is now hail- ed as victor. That great financier and observer, Lord Rothchild, in speaking of the lapsed Russian loan, declares pessimistically that there must be re- volution in Russia if the war ceases, and revolution also if the Czar madly attempts to carry it on. +++ TUG, READING( UAW, plaintiff would be the only correct 000. The jury, however, who were nut for three boons, seem to have regarded the evidence as too conflicting to prove anything against the defendant, and in accordance with their finding judgment was entered. for the defen- dant, dismissing the action but with. out costs, each party to pay his own expenses. Robt, 13011 Engine and Threshing Co, v. George II. Anderson, --The de- fendant,. IL farmer in Fullerton, Intr. chased an engine and boiler front Robb. Bell, which the defendant claims was not satisfactory, and the action was brought to secure payment of art account for supplies which the defen- dant claims he should not be charged with, as they were used in trying to put the machinery in gond serape, and also of at promissory note in part pay- ment, said to have been made by An- derson in favor of Robt. Bell and in- dorsed in favor of the company. As the week was used up before this case was reached, the record. was made at remanent, Isis Honor not feeling dis- posed to put the county to the cost of detaining the jury till the next week. Searle v. Goodall. -The plaintiff, W. J. Searle, is a miller at Ripley, and the defendant, James Goodall, a produce commission merchant at Toronto. An agreement was made for the sale by defendant to plaintiff of one car of No. 3 yellow American corn for 554c. a bushel. The corn, the plaintiff claims, was worth $144.60 less than the agreed price, not being the saute as was in- voiced. The defendant says it was equal in quality to the kind ordered and that plaintiff knew it was not the kind ordered when he paid for it, and hence is estopped from damages. By consent this action was adjourned to the next jury sittings of the court, costs of the day to be costs in the cause. Routhier v. Bissonnett.-The plain- tiff is a doctor living at Ottawa and the defendant a manufacturer living in the village of St. Joseph. On Octo- ber 29, 1902, the defendant made two promissory notes in favor of plaintiff, one for $150 due one month from date, and the other for $250 due two months from date. The defendant denies making tine notes and says if he did make them they have been paid in full. The action was brought to secure payment, but the matter was arranged out of court. _ • Toronto General Trusts Co. v. War- rington was an action on a mortgage in connection with the estate of the late Hon. M. C. Cameron. Judgment of reference to the Master of the Su- preme Court at Goderich. The criminal charge against Jaynes Aitken, for assault, was tried on Sat- _, urday, the jury finding him guilty. He was sent to the jail to serve a term of one month at hard labor. The Crown Attorney prosecuted and G. F. Blair defended. Newspaper reading has become- a Pronounced national habit in Canada, less marked in our cities than those of the united States, but more evenly diffused throughout the country. A prominent Ettglislr. visitor, who re. Gently spent a week among some On- tario ttLrio farmers living in the back town- ships, testified that.tbey were remark- ably intelligent, far more so than the average English farmer, This may be said of all the country places in Cana- da. Isolation in geography begets a desire to keep in touch with centres by reading. In towns and cities, ow- ing to excellent educational systems, the average literacy is high, and the reading general. This diffusion of intelligence is a fundamental feet, so far as the print- ing and publishing trades are concern. ed. The comparative decadence of oratory and the growing function of the newspaper go hand in hand more markedly in Canada than in England, where eminent speakers aro within twenty-four hours' ride of almost everybody. The magazine habit has become likewise pronounced, copiously fed by periodicals from the United States and England, chiefly the for- mer. The large magazine Saturday issue of the daily paper has followed here along the lines of the Sunday special in the United States. And everywhere in this huge country now it is the Iength of a revolution back to the day when the weekly newspaper supplied the literary needs of the country, and when all the paper print- ed in all Canada in one week scarcely equalled the amount consumed by the big web presses of Toronto and Mon- treal in a single day. With a general healthy growth of reading, based on a large preponder- ance of English-speaking population and good educational systems, it is not surprising to note that in 1904 Canada possessed 115 daily papers, 3 tri -weeklies, 35 semi-weeklies, 850 weeklies, 2 bi-weeklies, 30 semi-month- lies, 200 monthlies, 1 tri -monthly, 2 bi- monthlies, and 10 quarterlies. It is estimated that the paper mills of Canada produce every 24 hours 1,300,000 lbs. of paper. What percent- age of this is news and book print can only be surmised from considering the above figures. The printing establish ments of Canada are progressing quite as rapidly as any other branch of in dustry. In value of invested property and of annual preduction they stand well to the front. -The increased use of cement for different purposes is remarkable. In 1901, there were used in Canada 811,- 060 barrels ; in 1901, there were 1,665,- 502 barrels disposed of. At the sante rate 1905 will see over two million bar- rels manufactured and sold. Re- sidences, foundations, sidewalks, tun- nels, archways, bridges, etc. are being built of it, and the demand apparently knows no limit. ++. Contracts have been awarded for the construction of the international tunnel beneath the Detroit River, and within three months work will actual- ly have begun. It is estimated that two and a half years will be required to complete the gigantic enterprise, the cost of which will approximate seven and a half millions. The tunnel will be exactly two miles in length, from approach to approach. Twin tubes will be laid beneath the river, all encased in one subway with a dis- tance of thirty feet between them. Electric traction will be the motive power used. .++ -The Chesley Enterprise puts the proposal to increase our standing army to 5,000 men in a new light. Five thousand non -producers is, it says, quite an array for a young coun- try like Canada, where harvest hands are so scarce. The cost to the country of maintaining the force is not the whole of it ; there is, in addition, the loss of labor which might be applied to the work of production. To main- tain the men under arms will cost not • n addition short.of Z 000 000 i much, there will be the loss of what these men might earn in productive callings -at least $2,000,000 more. It is a heavy and wholly unnecessary burden for a country situated as Canada is. - [Weekly Sun. -The Dominion Government will be asked by the Council of the Do- minion Alliance to declare the dis- tricts through which the Transcon- tinental Railway, including its branches, will pass a prohibition area. In addition, all the Provinces, includ- ing the two new ones, through which the line is to be constructed will be petitioned to.t'efutse to issue any liquor licenses along such line, and in all un- organized sections. Other resolutions were adopted asking for the total pro- hibition of the liquor and cigarette traffic. f: CANADIAN HORSES. An English horseman, who was in Toronto during the week, passed a criticism on the horses of the country, to the effect that they were, as a whole, too lightly built, and that a t readier sale would be found for them had they more substance. There is no question that Canada's animals are built on speed lines. European -bred animals are accustom- ed to draw behind them almost twice the weight that to which the Cana- dian animal is usually attached. A little more bone, substance and in- dividuality would do no injury to the Canadian product. The complaint throughout Canada is that horses of first quality are not to be obtained. A horseman who is intimate with the local conditions of the horse trade of the province stated that they were in the country. "They have been sold out of the coun- try," he said, "and farmers are not breeding the best quality of animals." A. matter that has just taken place may, however, encourage breeders to bestir themselves. The Ottawa Gov- ernment has at last taken action with reference to remounts for the Imperial array, and Toronto has been fixed up- on as the remount depot for this sec- tion of the province. Messrs. Burns & Sheppard, of the Repository, have been commissioned •s'oned to receive for the inspection of remount officers, all horses that may be sent to them. Pour classes of animals are wanted -for mounted infantry, cavalry, artil- lery, and black -coloured animals for the Household Cavalry. The heights of the animals respectively must be from 15 to 15,3, from 15.1 to 15.3, from 15.2 to 15.3, and from 15.3 to 16.1. For mounted infantry horses the prices given will average $145, while for animals in other classes the price will be according to the value of the horse. -The St. John Sun suspects that the Senate is not industrious. Dur- ing the five months ending June 10, the Senate sat 48 days, and the House Uel. The douse usnally sits from 3 until near midnight. The Senate has held only two evening sessions, and the usual sitting is not more than an hour, The saltie complaint was made when the Senate and House were Con- servative, and it is even said that in those days Liberals wanted to reform or abolish the tipper Chamber.. SVhen the House became Liberai, the Conservative majority of the Senate came to life and killed the Yukon bill; but when the Senate became Liberal it let the legions thunder past and plunged in thought again. At various s hav in. t thinkers e times speculavo t i dulged in visions of malting the Senate work. Perhaps the Bureau of Labor could do something.--•IToronto Newel ,l: JUNE SESSIONS. Just What Everyone Should Do. Mr. J. T. Barber of Irwinville, Ga., always keeps a bottle of Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy at hand ready for instant use. At- tacks of colic, cholera morbus and diarrhoea conte on so suddenly that there is no time to hunt a doctor or Bo to the store for medicine. Mr. arber says : "I have tried Chamber- lain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy which is one of the best medi- cines I ever saw. I keep a bottle of it in my room as I have had several attacks of colic and it has proved to he the best medicine I ever used." Sold by all druggists. - Clairvoyant - Psychic.
