—Fifty years ago San Franeiseo was
a collection of sand clunes. To -day it
bas upward of 400,0(X) inhabitants, and
in 1904 its bank clearings were a
billiou and a half of dollars,
* *
•
—There were in all $2,234,6.35 paid
out by the Dominion Government in
bounties for the year ending June 30th
last.. Of this automat $1,510,203 were
paid on iron and steel compared with
$908,962 last year. There were paid
$330,645 on lead, $13,789 on binder
twine, and $350,047 on petroleum.
—The engineer in charge of the
Quebec to Moncton section of the
Grand Trunk Pacific has reported that
when the line he has to construct has
been completed, it will be just ten and
a half miles longer than the parallel
road (Intercolonial) it is designed to
supercede. Anything more foolish
than the building, at a cost of $20,-
000,000 odd, of a railway that is longer
than the present one it wont(' be diffi-
cult to suggest.
*
—Japan has anarea actually 27,000
square miles greater than the British
Isles and 5,000,000 more inhabitants ;
in other words, the population of Ja•
•
pan is 47,000,000, while that of Great
Britain and Ireland is but 42,000,000.
Japan's population exceeds that of
France by nearly 9,000,000, of Italy by
15,000,000, and of Austro-Hungary by
500,000. Outside of Asia there are but
three countries in all the world with
greater populations than Japan—Rus-
sia, the United States, and Germany.

—The total number of municipalities
in the province of Ontario is 287. Lo-
cal Option by-laws, under Provincial
legislation, have been carried in 49 of
them. There are '75 others in which
no licenses are issued. There are thus
124 municipalities in which no licenses
are issued. The number of licenses in
other municipalities is being steadily
re
was
uthenumber
d cel. In 1875,
6185. Last year it was 2899, and al-
ready one hundred have been cut off
for 1905. It nmst be borne in mind
that the population of the province
has almost doubled since 1875.
* *
—At the 24th annual meeting of the
C. P. R. on October 4th, President
Shaughnessy stated that a record re-
venue of over fifty million dollars bad
been collected last year, and even
this vast sum had been exceeded in
the present year, so favorable were
the prospects. As a result of recent
improvements, he said, the road was
well in the point of all transcontinen-
tal lines. \With an eye to still further
improvement, he presented a resolu-
tion calling for an expenditure of
$7,500,000 on rolling stock and locomo-
tives. It was promptly approved.
* *
—The report of the Commissioner of
Public Works of Ontario states that
in 1904 there were completed or under
construction 7,324 miles of railway in
the province, of which 525 miles were
under construction. The new lines
being built included a road 59 miles
long between .Romford, near Sudbury,
and Byng Inlet, being constructed by
the Canadian Pacific Railway, an ex-
tension of the Temiskaming and Nor-
thern Railway from 80 to 100 tniles
north of New Liskeard, and a line of
the Tames Bay Railway from Toronto
to a junction with the Canadian Pa-
cific Railway near Sudbury, a distance
of about 265 miles.

—According to the most recent Ger-
man statistics, the length of the rail-
roads of the world was 537,105 miles
on December 31, 1904, of which 276,386
miles were in America, 137,776 in Eur-
ope, 46,592 miles in Asia, 15,619 miles
in Africa, and 16,702 miles in Austra-
lasia. Of the mileage of European
railroads, Germany stands first, 34,016
miles. The average cost of construc-
tion of the European railroads per
mile is estimated at $107,577, while for
the remainder of the world the esti-
mate is only $59,650. The total value
of the railroads of the world, accord-
ing to these statistics, is $43,000,000,-
000, of which the European roads fig-
ure for $=2,000,000,000.

—The three principal beetsugar pro-
ducing countries are Germany, France
and Anstro-I'iungary. Germany in
;1904 produced 4,2,53,000,000 lbs of sugar
' and nearly two-thirds of this was con-
, sinned in the home market, where it
was protected against the competition
of itnported cane by a high tariff, and
up to 190:3 the export end of Ger-
many's sugar trade was helped by
bounties. Austro-Hungary in 1904
produced two and ahalf billion pounds
of sugar, and half of this was found
sale for in the protected home market.
France produced upwards of one and
a half billion pomade, and nearly three-
fonrtlzs of the total output Was sold
at home, where it was protected
against foreign competition by a high
tariff.

—The question of abolishing the en -
11 trance examination le at present a
i very live issue With Toronto Board of
Education. Inspector Hughes declarers
the ehti=ance eitatnination is an un-
mitigated evil ; that the competition
among fetchers to past at many of
their pupils as possible is detrimental
both to the c:hildreu's edneation and
their health, "Au examination at the
enol of the year is not to fair test of a
pupil's standing," said Inspector
Hughes. "I world prefer to rely on
the judgment of the teachers, and I
would rather leave the promotions in
their hands." A deputation was ap-
pointed to interview the. Minister of
Education with a view to scouring
legislation which will place the power
of making promotions from the Public
to the High schools in the hands of
the Board.
—A critical surgical operation was
recently performed in the German-
town Hospital, Philadelphia.. A nuts
was brought in who had been shot in
the breast, The wound was in a line
with the heart, and the surgeons be-
lieved that the organ had been grazed,
if it had not been pierced. The pa-
tient was in a very' low coudition, and
his death was momentarily expected,
As it was evident that death must
ensue if heroic measures were not ta-
ken, and that therefore there was no-
thing to be lost by an operation, the
surgeons determined to examine the
heart. An incision was made, por-
tions of two ribs removed, and the
heart was exposed. The operating
surgeon took it in his hand while
search was made in the cavity for the
bullet. It was found imbedded within
a fraction of an inch of the heart, and
its pressure had interfered with its
pulsation. When the bullet was re-
moved, the heart, which had contin-
ued beating while the surgeon held it,
was restored to its place. The wound
was closed and the patient is in a fair
way to recovery...In In former times
such an injury would have inevitably
caused death ; but now, science has so
far advanced, that it can deal even
with so critical a case.
ing of the change of viceroys and
General Kitchenet's policy will ;: he car-
ried out under the Earl of lllioto, the
new viceroy, Rnseia, now halted on
the Pacific, would soon as naturally
push into British Asia as an avalanche
stopped at one outlet would soon seek
another ; and the English are strength-
ening their Asiatie defenses in time.
The appointment of the Earl of
Minto to this great post was a sur-
prise, for Iris administration as Gover-
nor-General of Canada was not a note-
worthy success, But the duties of a
governor-general in Canada are wholly
formal sand social, and Lord Minto did
not seem quite so to understand theta.
It is assumed that he approves the
stronger military policy for India.
The chief distinctions that he has won
are military—he has seed service in
India, in Africa, and in the Northwest
Tert•itr ies of Canada in the Riel re-
bellion. In the Afghan war he served
under General Roberts. He would
- naturally favor the new and stronger
military policy of General Kitchener.
His appointment conies pat after Gen-
eral Roberts's recent speech in the
IIouse of Lords in which he emplane
sized the defencelessness of the Em-
pire. The meaning of it all is that the
menace of Russia is to be checked
while us-ta is weak, General Kitch-
ener recently gave expression to a
widespread opinion among English-
men, especially among Englishmen of
military training, that in spite of Rus-
sia's setback a clash between her and
England in India is at some time
inevitable.
PREMIER WHITNEY FIRM.
Premier Whitney politely but firm-
ly refuses to dismiss an office -holder
simply because he is a. Liberal. To a
deputation that recently waited on
him on this matter, he said, in so
many words :—
"Gentlemen,—If you want the head
of a government official it is up to
you, the patronage committee, to
show why. It is not the business of
the government to run around looking
for information against any member
of the service. We are not here for
that purpose. We have other matters
of importance before. us. We believe
you are right in demanding the re-
moval of offensive partisans, and if
you produce the evidence we will do
the rest."
"The Premier is perfectly right,"
was the opinion of many of the: com-
mittee as they passed out of the build-
ing. "Itis now up to us to act."
The answer of the Premier was de-
livered in his most suave tone. Ent
he was firm in his refusal to throw out
otiice-holders simply because there
•were good Conservatives looking for
their jobs. His answer melted the
deputation and execration was turned
to blessing.—[Toronto World.
QUESTION AND ANSWER.
An "Enquirer" asks of the Weekly
Sun the following questions :-
1—Number of Senators at Ottawa?
2—Amount of salary and perquisites ?
3—Are they any use—would the coun-
try suffer without them ?
The editor of the Sun replies as fol-
lows :-
1—The number of Senators is 81.
2—The total amount received by the
Senators in indemnity and mileage
in the fiscal year ending with June,
1904, before the hate increase in in-
demnity, was $181,845.03. In addi-
tion to this the Speaker received
$4,000. On top of all this there was
an expenditure of $87,722.53 for sala-
ries and contingencies. This made
the total cost of the Senators that
year $273,567.76. Included in the
items for contingencies were these
expenditures: Bath brush, $1.50;
bath soap, $1.20; flower pot, $6.25:
table cover, $115; four silver dishes,
$9.550 ; three dozen champagne
glasses, $2.50; four dozen claret
glasses, $1.50; two -dozen finger
howls, $4.50; six pepper castors,
$1.75; six mustard. pots, $3.75; half-
dozen nut crackers, $12 ; and half-
dozen long spoons, $8.50.
3—The question as to whether the
Senate is of any use, and as to whe-
ther the country could get along
without it, can be as well answered
by any intelligent reader as it can
by The Sun. Our own opinion is,
however, that if what is by courtesy
called the Upper Horse should sud-
denly drop out of existence the hole
left would be about as conspicilous
as that which remains on drawing
one's finger from a bowl of water.
—Editor Sun.
ENGLAND STRENGTHENING HER
INDIAN DEFENSES,
(The World's Work.)
A part of the same defensive Move-
ment by l4ngiand which caused her to
renew and strengthen her alliance
with Japan is the change of policy in
the government of India. F''or the re•
tirentent of Lord Curzon as 'viceroy
had more than a personal meaning.
He stands for the supremacy of the
civil government over the military;
and this, and not a mere disagreement
about the appointment of a subordi-
nate, wits the difference between the
Viceroy and the Home Oorerninent
which caused blur to resign. The
strengthening of the army and of the
military defenses itt India is rho mean.
