The session was a record one for length, having lasted sire months and ten days. *«* • -Witte the Dominion expenditure at or near $14 for every elan, woman and child in Canada, 'tis a "growing time" indeed. There are 214 members of the House. of Commons and eighty- one Senators. When $1500 was the indemnity. it amounted to $442,500, Now that it is $2,500, they will receive $787,500, and that's the way the money goes. -A. Brockville business man points out that one injustice of the new As- sessment Act is the hardship it inflicts on tenants who pay taxes on income thus bearing a double burden. He shows that such tenant pays the tax on the property in his rental, for the Iandlord fixes the rental to provide for this. He is again taxed on the money he uses to pay the rent. The act is full of injustices and inequities. *./Ir -Our Canadian* "army" does not cutarmies of much figure among the ar mt the world, it is true, but its cost this year will -be well up to seven and a half million dollars. Just add it up and see - Militia appropriations ......$0,500,000 Appropriations for armories 785,000 Department expenses 60,000 Total $7,354,000 What practical and beneficial returns do we get for all this money? How muck better are we for the expendi- ture ? -Prof. Goldwin Smith, who is a staunch Liberal, when speaking re- cently at Toronto University, paid Premier Whitney the following coin- plinient-"I believe Mr. Whitney will do what he says he will do for the uni- versity. I went once to hear hint speak on a question trying to a poli- tician of candor and integrity, and on my return I was asked how be had impressed me. 'His is the eloquence', I replied, 'that to me is the most value. He speaks like an honest man." 4* -Organization has been begun in the Territories for the defence of Pro- vincial Rights. The Calgary Herald says :-"All over Alberta the desire to stand for provincial rights against co- ercion has spread. In some sections it is more pronounced. Some party organs only oppose certain features of the coercion measures, while others oppose other clauses, but the general tendency is to make a fight and a per- sistent fight against coercion and for provincial rights. The condition is rnost encouraging to those who hope to see fair play in the Territories re- gardless of the efforts of the Ottawa coercionists to control the situation," * -An Ottawa, despatch in the Globe indicates that Sir Richard Cartwright and the Hon. Messrs. Fitzpatrick and Scott will retire from the Government September 1. 'Mr. Fitzpatrick, it is said, will become Chief Justice of Que. bee, and it is expeetecl that his place in the Cabinet as Minister of Justice will be taken by Mr, Aylesworth. The choice for Solicitor -General is said to lie between Ifugh Guthrie and Leigh- ton McCarthy, while Archie Camp- bell, West York, may succeed Sir Rich- ard Cartwright. Under the pension scheme and salary grab just adopted, Mr. Scott slid Sir Riehaard Cartwright, as members of the Senate and ex - Cabinet Ministers, will receive in pen- sion an indemnity of $0,000 a year eaeh. * -Referring to *the "salary grab" allowed by the Dominion Government in the dosing hours of the session, the Weekly Sun says :-"The most unjus- tillable part of the whole grab is the indistritninate voting of pensioret to ex -Cabinet Minister.. Jtt_st think of a pension for Blair --they elan who alien - dotted his post as chairman of the railway Commission and threat' inter- ests of vast importance over the whole country into confusion 1 A pension for L.angevice the matt who was driven from public refute because he was a party to the avholeseale robbery of pnbiic funds!. Or a pension to Siftotr, who has managed to amass a Iilatn< moth fortune with amazing rapidity, , and who tither went too far or fell: far siiot t of going far enough on the Northwest school 4lleation. The fseds ary opal) of thio week is a fitting cls. Hoax to the $00,000,000 iron, !Tile Weekly Stm Is level-headed and its criticisms are generally fair. Referring to the increasing expendi- tare, the Slut says ;--A ean•efal perusal of the estimates and Auditor-tletteral's review of the public ;recounts, slloold convince anyone that a stt'011g Fin- ance Minister could prune millions from the public expendittire without redueing in the slightest the efficiency of the public service or cutting off any public work which the needs of the country really rail for, \Vllat is the duty of Liberals under such eiremn- sttances ? We do ltot mean the "New Liberals," but those who believe in the principles of economy as taught by their leaders in '00. That duty is to tt ih tupon the men have i1 - trusted with power, acting on the in- junction of the Globe "to put on the brakes." If the brakes are not plat on disaster most come to the party, and, what is of more importaenee, to the country, HOW IT IS VIEWED, (Toronto Saturday Night), The Laurier Government has evi- dent broken the o' t eyed the evi- dently 1. t t lock, n (ser � hinges arid thrown away the lid of the strong box at Ottawa, and all the members of Parliament have been in- vited to push their itching patens into Canada's treasure, The sessional in- demnity for members of Parliament and Senators, -which but a couple of years ago was only $1,000 and was later increased to $1,500, has now been fixed at $2,500, the "travelling allow- ances" to be continued. The increase of the salary of the Premier from $8,000 to $12,000 has long been necessary, but taken in con- nection with the extraordinary en- largement of the indemnity to be paid the Commoners and Senators it does not seem quite decent at the opening session of a new Parliament -a session which will go down to history as no- torious for the aggressions of a racial and religious faction, backed by a. number of Government supporters whose defeat will be inevitable. Al- ready we can see the signs of that era of looseness and corruption dowing which members of the Commons who do not expect to be re-elected will de- mand the price of their allegiance to the Quebec politician at their head. That the Senate, a notoriously ill - constituted and useless body, should also come in for the additional indem- nity, makes the affair more scanda- lous. The Liberals have succeeded in packing the Senate with hopeless political wrecks selected from their most incorrigible partizans. The body which the Liberals, in Opposi- tion, proposed to reform is now but the registry office of the Premiers will. Twenty-four members, it is un- derstood, have been added to it as representative of the two new provin- ces. The indemnities have been raised from $1,000 to $2,500, and it is obvi- ously to be mule the asylum for the coercionists from the English -speak= ing provinces who cannot be re-elect- ed to the Commons, thus fastening French-Canadian views upon the "Up- per House." The Government no doubt promised those who voted in fear and trembling for the Coercion bill, not only seats in the Senate, but this preposterously increased indem- nity. Surely enough, we are starting to pay the bill incurred by the apos- tate Premier when he started out to bully through Pailiaatent a bill op- posed to both the spirit of his party and the constitution of the conntry. CANADA'S OPPORTUNITY. (Farmer's Advocate.) At this moment, when the eyes of the civilized world are turned admir- ingly towards the little Island Empire of the Orient, it is opportune to reflect upon the commercial changes that will follow the war. The overthrow of Russian power will mean a new Asia. Itis reasonable to expect that the qualities which have contributed to 3apanese prowess in war, will mani- fest themselves also in commerce, and if the Japs succeed, as they bid fair ultimately to do, in rejuvenating the four -hundred million nation of Chin- ese, opening up that immense country to the commerce of the West, the eemtnereial snap of the world will be readjusted, and the Patine will be- come the highway of a traffic vaster than that of the Atlantic. For Can- ada, especially for Western Canada, the importance of the change can scarcely be realized. Not only shall we be in the direct line between the East and the West, belt, situated more conveniently than any other modern- eivilized nation except Russia, we should be able to capture a large share of the new trade that Will develop. Saipan will afford a growing market for many of our products. She is yearly becoming more of a mannfltc- tut'ing nation, importing large quan- tities of raw material and other arti- cles required for native manufacture. From figures to hand it appears that her itnports for the first three months of 1005 totalled $0,250,000, against $16,500,000 for the corresponding period of 1004, it is significant, too, that the ques- €ioil of food supply ire eotntiteneing to engage the attention of the Japanese pliant. 'The trade returns show that the imports orrice exceed the exports, besides which there is Imported at quantity of wheat flouur, the value of this in 1903 being $55,162,0'00. Mean. while, the tlopttlatiott, boar computed atclose upon 47,000,000, .is increasing at the Annual rate of lutif a million, so that, in spite of attempts to augnteht the prodnetion of lore by extension of the fields and introduCtlon of sagrfoul• turad improwatents, it is evident that Japan will become more dependent neon foreign eotuttries for food supply. We is Canada's opportunity. 1t opens up a great possibility in supply- ing the Japanese with flour, for in- stance. It is true tate consumption of flour in that country, as compared 'with rice, is still insifnifiealnt. A greater part Of that now imported is used in the Iltttnti£actnre of macaroni and other paste foods, whine accounts for the 404110nd for the lower grades, lint the itse of bread is becoming more general, and the demand for wheat clout' of better (parity is bound to 14) - crease. Likewise in butter told other rotnntadities, an expanding trade 11»' lobtedl lies at 0111' Western door.r. Last year our Japanese exports amounted to the respectable item of $418,240, an increase of more than 70 per cent. over the previous year, and it is oat over optimistic to expect thatt within a fete years this may be multi- plied many fold, It, will pay ns well to keep our eyes on the East. 1 West Wawanosh.

The average roan does not save to exceed ten per cent. of his earnings. He must spend nine dollars in living expenses for every dollar saved. That being the case he cannot be too care- ful about unnecessary expenses. Very often a few cents properly invested, like buying seeds for his garden, will save several dollars outlay later on. It is the same in buying Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea. Remedy, It costs but a few cents and a bottle of it in the house often saves a doc- tor's bill of several dollars.
