Ebitotiat
—By proclamation, the Dominion
Government has taken Keewatin away
from Manitoba and annexed it to the
North-West Territories. Lion. Robt.
Rogers characterizes this as a "villain-
ous outrage" on Manitoba.
—Canada's population is now con-
siderably over 0,000,000, having in-
creased over 800,600 since the 1901
census. This estimate is derived by
the most careful computation in the
Census Department at Ottawa.
•r„
—There is to be a three -cornered
fight in West Lambton for the seat in
the House of Commons, rendered va-
cant by the death of Dr. Johnston.
The candidates are to be—R. E. Les -
suer (Conservative), F. F. Pardee (Lib-
eral), J. G. McCrae (Protection and
Prohibition).
—Speaking at the directors' lun-
cheon at the Toronto Exhibition, Hon.
Nelson Monteith, Minister of Agricul-
ture, said that the Exhibition served a
great purpose in creating ideals to-
wards the - realization of which all
should work. He referred to the re•
sults obtained in the Kingdom of Den-
mark by co-operation, especially in the
dairying industry, and urged that a
similar effort be made in this country,
whose possibilities had scarcely been
touched upon. He created some en-
thusiasm by declaring that Ontario
was and always would continue in the
forefront of the Provinces of the Do-
minion along agricultural lines.
* *
—It has been recently intimated that
the Dominion Government contem-
plates erecting a new residence for
the Governor-General. The report has
called forth this timely protest from
the Ridgetown Dominion : "With an
annual expenditure of ninety millions,
the confession that the era of surpluses
is at an end, and a promised increase
of the national debt to the amount of
seventy-five or one hundred millions,
by reason of the construction of the
G. T. P., the people of Canada are in
no humor to listen to the erection of a
better palace for the King's represen-
tative at Ottawa. Rideau Hall ,is big
enough and expensive enough for all
requirements,
..
•
—A. W. Campbell, Deputy Minister
of Public 'Works, is credited with the
statement that he intends to advocate
the abolition of statute labor, not only
as to the labor itself, but as to the tax.
"I ani in favor," he says, "of having
all the expenditure on roadways de-
frayed out of the general taxes of the
township. I would also like," he says,
"to see a closer union between town-
ship, county, and Provincial authori-
ties in the construction of trunk roads.
What I think would be the ideal plan
would be for the expense of all "trunk
lines of roadways to be borne by the
three bodies. This would have the
result of making the towns and cities
pay a greater share of the cost of
maintenance."

—From Portage +la Prairie to the
Touchwood Hills the Grand Trunk
Pacific is to run parallel with the C.
P. R., and will not open op any new
country, but will destroy some towns
and villages ages now growing up. The C.
P. R. appealed to the Board of Rail-
way Commissioners, but Judge Kil-
lam, Chairman of the Board, intimates
that the clause which provides that
the line shall not be constructed closer
than thirty miles from existing rail-
ways is not worth the paper it was
printed on. If this decision is correct
it is difficult to see how the Govern-
ment is to escape from the charge of
wilfully deceiving Parliament and the
country in snaking this thirty -mile
stipulation one of the provisions of
the act of incorporation, for all the
good itis.

•
—On the question of subsidies to the
provinces, the Toronto Telegram says e
"The money that goes from Ottawa in
subsidies to the provinces is distribut-
ed per capita without corruption, fa-
vorrtu, nn or partisanship. The money
that goes from Ottawa in subsidies for
railways and grants forpublic
yt ni u•
1 Ill
lugs is distributed according to the
dictates of favoritisnn, partisanship or
corruption. The people of the pro-
vinces supply the revenues of the Do-
minion, and these revenues Haight
better be returned to the people in the
form of provincial subsidies than
squandered in railway subsidies,
grants for public, buildings or salary
grabs. These revenues might still
better be applied to a reduction of the
national debt, but not a dollar will go
to the country's creditors so long as
there is a surplus in tate trevtsilty that
can be thrown to the wolves of sub -
814y -hunting avarice and parliamen-
tary greed."
*
—Tire 0, P,. R. ^ `stole a march" on
the G. T. R. last Wednesday night at
G ilelph. It seems that the G. T. R.
objected to the Guelph and Godericir
Railway crossing their trucks. On the
night referred to, while M. K. Cowan,
of Montreal, and Mr. Pope and other
high offitaats of the G. T. R., were at-
tending the Guelph City Council meet-
ing regarding the transfer of the fair
grounds for a freight depot, the C. P.
R. people were not asleep. They
brought two special trains with equip-
ment and one .hundred men into the
city prepared to construct the new
tracks of the Guelph and Goderioh
Railway Company over the Grond
Trunk at Golclie's Mills. The work
commenced at midnight and when
Mr. M. K, Cowan awoke nest morn-
ing he found that the C. P. R. had
crossed the tracks of the G. T. R. and
their construction trains are now run-
ning in their supplies. Lieut. -Col.
Macdonald, secretary of the Guelph
Junction, and J. W. Leonard of the 0.
P. R. superintended the operations.
—The real value of the live stock ex-
hibitions which are now being held
does not and should not exist alone or
even largely in the prizes to be won
by the successful competitors. In no
better way can the breeding of good
animals be encouraged, and no money
is better spent than that which goes
in generous prizes to reward the skill
and care of the .breeders in producing
first-class stock. This is certainly a
very important consideration for the
breeder, and the production of high-
class stock is valuable to the commu-
nity. But while exhibitions encourage
breeding they do something more • of
even greater importance. They edu-
cate the general public, and the fanner
particularly, as well as the active
breeders. For those not familiar with
the. standards of excellence for the
different breeds, there is no place that
they may as quickly learn as at a pro-
perly conducted show ring, for there
the object lessons are before one, and
observation helps to fix in mind the
standard of excellence that is required
for the breed or class of animals
shown,
1'
DECIDED DISAPPROVAL.
J. Lockie Wilson, President of the
Farriers' Association of Ontario, in
his opening address, severely scored
the Ottawa politicians for the extrava-
gant pace they have set in the Do-
minion expenditure, and especially for
the recent increase in the sessional in-
demnity. Here are a few extracts
from his address :—
"In future, every time that we turn
out a Government we will have on our
hands a nice little aristocratic group
of sixteen Cabinet Minister's to pro-
vide for. Not Cabinet Ministers, nor
Senators, nor those festive Knights of
Saint Michael and Saint George, but
the sweat -stained toilers in factory,
field and urine will in the last analysis
be forced to pay for the costly carni-
val now in full swing on Parlianient
Hill at Ottawa.
"After paying them their salaries in
cash — withont perquisites—for five
years or more, we pension them to the
extent of $56,000 a year for the rest of
their lives.
"The pace our representatives at Ot-
tawa, Grit or Tory, have set, is fast
and furious.
"We must still sweep diligently our
threshing floors and gather the last
handful of grain ; we'll need it, for the
lean years will come again and empty
barns, and starvation prices will give
more time to reflect, and those far-
mers who are indifferent now will
then be in sterner mood, and waken
up too late to stay the fine Italian
hands of political' brigands who have
secured the combination of our na-
tional safe.
"Your Cabinet Ministers at the
capital, without consulting the men
who put there in power," continued
the president, "voted for and are tak-
ing out of your treasury annual pen-
sions ranging from $3,500 to $6,000
each for the full term of their natural
lives.
"But not one of the three hundred
representatives entatrves stet hinted that
pen-
sions be given to those noble old pio-
neer farmers who have blazed their
perilous way through the forest prim-
eval and hewed down the pine and
hemlock, and laid the foundation
broad and deep of Canada's prosperity
—yeomen who had borne the burden
and heat of the day, and whose work-
worn bodies sadly needed rest and re-
pair. If Old, crippled, and unfortu-
nate, the poor -house will be fixed up
for them.
OUR ALARMING EXPENDITURE.
"I urged at our last convention that
farmers should consider with ford -
thought the tendencies of those to
whom we entrust the making of the
laws and the spending of our tax
lmoney. Ninety millions of expendi-
ture in one year represents the Federal
Government's idea of economy, not-
withstanding their solemn pledge that
if given power they'd spend less than
$31,000,000.
"We const continue otrr light
against bonuses and subsidies. This
cancerous growth must be carved out.
Our representatives have handed out
free gifts to the amount of ono lint: -
tired and seventy millions of dollars in
eash out of the people's treaenry to
railway corporations, and we exercise
no right of ownership and but little
control.
"Bebldex the above enormous emit
bonuses we have given, without one
dollar of remuneratloln therefor, sixty
million acres of the finest agricultural,
timber, and mineral lauds on this eon-
tiuent•--a princely heritage, Just
think of it I Giving away for nothing .
to railway promoters and corporations
an area three tiuu's the size of all the
occupied lauds in the great Province
of Ontario.
"I believe I speak for ninety pet'
cent. of of the farurers when I state that -
0enadi;un war dogs should at once be '
callers off and a stop put to Sir .Frede-
rick Borden's revelry. Farmers know
that ' war is hell,' and yet they stitnd
stolidly by, while millions of hard-
earned money is being squandered by -
the most recklessly extravagant Min-
ister
l-ister of Militia the Canadian people
were ever cursed with. His appropri-
ations for this year amount to nearly
seven and one-half millions of dollars,
equal to a tax of Ave dollars on every
family irr Canada. And the end is
not yet."

THREE JURORS CURED
Of Cholera Morbus with One Small Bottle of
Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diar-
rhoea Remedy.
Mr. G. W. Fowler, of Hightower,
Ala„ relates an experience he had
while serving on a petit jury in a
murder case at Edwardsville, county
seat of Clebourne county, Alabama.
He says :—"While there I ate some
fresh meat and some souse meat and
it gave Inc cholera morbus in a very
severe form. I was never more sick
in my life and sent to the drug store
for a certain cholera mixture but the
druggist sent me a bottle of Chamber-
lain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea
Remedy instead, saying that he had
what I sent for but that this medicine
was so Hauch better he would rather
send it to me in the fix I was in. I
took one close of it and was better in
five minutes. The second dose cured
ale entirely. Two fellow jurors were
afflicted in the same manner and one
small bottle cared the three of us."
