EDITORIAL NOTES.
Statistios of homestead entries in the
west for the eight months ending Aug-
ust 31 show that Moose Jaw, Swift
Current and Saskatoon oontinne to be
the chief centres of activity. Moose
Jaw's total for eight mouths is 9,375.
Swift Current's 6.442, Siskatoon's 5,322.
The total for eight months is 30.913, as
compared with 21 311 for the same per-
iod of 1909.
The revenue of the Dominion for Au-
gust was $10,176,930, whioh is over a
million and a half more than during
August, 1909, Daring the fiscal year
so far gone the revenue has been $45,-
830,370 as against $33,500,160 in 1909
The expenditures $37,546,017 on consoli-
dated fund and $9,161,450 on capital as
count. The total net debt of the Do
minion is $327,345,552.
With the return of Hou. George P.
Graham to the capital a majority of the
Government are now there, and frequent
Cabinet meetings will be held for the
next two months in preparation of the
estimates and the Legislative agenda for
the coming session of Parliament. No
date has as yet been fixed for the open-
ing, bat it will probably be either Nov-
ember 10 or 17.

tain a country residence or seaside cot-
tage or automobile because their neigh-
bors do likewise. The oorrnption in the
large cities is gross as a mountain, open,
palpable. Corrupt corporations and dis-
honest direotors who buy franohises are
to often favored, making honesty most
diffioult. Oa every hand, as this fiery
preacher (Father Vaughan) notes, the
gratification of the `senses seems upper
most. Oae hopes he will be able to con-
vince the people that there is something
after all in being just a plain. decent
citizen; that this is much better than
being a plain ,money -grabber, putting
chicory in coffee, sand in sugar, using
dirt instead of cement, and getting
money hook or crook, fair means or foul.
Father Vaughan and all other prophets
prove that indulgence of wants does not
satisfy. Oat of the past comes the story
of the eastern king tossing upon his
splendid conch and groaning in spirit;
his Vizier sake what he may do to bring
him pleasure. "Oh 'Pieter! I am pursed
for a want," and the perplexed Vizier
wrung his hands in despair as he gave
back answer, "By the beard of the
prophet, 0 King, thy case is a hard
one."—St. John Telegraph.
Ottawa is delighted to have the Pre-
mier home again. It is more proud of
him than ever for the sturdy Canadian -
ism and the sane Imperialism whioh he
has preached wherever he has gone,
whether on the plains of central Canada
or in the western Province by the
Pacific. Sir Wilfrid Ieft Ottawa our
first Canadian; he returns greater than

What is even of more importance
than the effect of his tour upon the price
ple, is its sleet upon himself. He has
been frank enough to say that he has
been greatly enlightened by it, and his
vision has become broader, that his love
ot Canada hae become more intense and
that his real'zition of the potentialities
of the country has beoame mere pro-

to Oanada that the etateeraau, wbo pre-

"The Liberal party in Ontario Is not
dead," said Sir George Roes in the
course of a strong address before the
sixth annual gathering of the General
Provincial Reform Association in the
Temple Building at Toronto on Friday
last. "A Spartan band of twenty or
thirty men could revolutionize that
House in a short time." There was a
large representation of well-known Lib-
erals from all parts of the province at
the meeting, and in addition to Sir.
George Ross, rousing speeches were de-
livered by Hon. A. G. McKay. Liberal
leader in the Provincial Legislature;
Hon. Geo. P. Graham, Minister of Rail-
ways: lion. Duncan Marshall, Minister
of Agriculture in the Province of
Alberta. Mr. MoKayin his address said
in part:—
"Temperance people will tell you,"
he declared, "that local option is the
beet meaanre of temperance yet offered
in the Province of Oata io. They are
well satisfied with the progress that has
been made, with the results that have
been achieved, and at the present time,
on that issue, Liberal candidates will
find safe and solid ground."
In closing his addreae, the Liberal
leader came back to the necessity of
getting the party candidates in the field
at the earliest possible moment, and
made a promise that roused the Liberals
present to enthusiastic oheere,
"If the Liberals of the Province do
their part in placing candidates in the
field," he said, "I will undertake to
addreae every riding of the whole 106
between now and elections."
All the officers of the Association
were re-elected for the netting year.

seems to Dare a whoop. The heartless
tyrant sits in state, and puts the poor
man in a crate. I held a city job for
years, and earned enough to buy my'

wife. I thought I had that job for life,
bat then a tyrant mayor Dame in, and I
saw grief and woe begin. He bounoed
me, comrades, from my plaoe! He said
he didn't like my fade! Beoauee I
didn't earn my pay, he shooed me from
my job away! He had the nervnto lay
it down that people working for the
town would have to earn the bones they
drew: I balked at that, and so would
yon! He wasted and destroyed my life;
he robbed my ohildren'and my wife; he
stole my biscuits and my jam; I shot
him then, and here I am! My doleful
plight should give yon pause; I am the
martyr for your cause. Shall tyrants
