PUBLTSnER AND PROpRIBTOR THURSDAY. MAY. 18.1905. NOTES AND COMMENTS. The first division of the Ontario Legis- lature occurred at Wednesday's session on Mr. Gamey's motion to rescind the vote of censure of the Iast Legislature. Mr, Harcoat and the Premier were the only speakers beside Mr. Gamey himself and the vote of Go to 21 represented the party strength of the House. There were seven pairs and three members ab- sent, Mr. A. G. Gilbert, poultry manager at the Experimental Farm, at Ottawa, con - eluded his evidence before the Agricul- : tare Committee Thursday morning. He recommended the following as the best general-purpose varieties of chickens for the farmers: -Any variety of Ply- mouth Rock, Wyandotte or Orpington breeds. He strongly advised the farmers to get into closer touch with dealers who vented strictly new -laid eggs, and 'said that the consumption of the best eggs in Canada was fast over -taking the production, an the second-grade eggs go ,to the English market. No one is yet prepared to make a pre- diotion as to when we may expect proro- gation of the House of Commons. Those who have given any thought to the mat- ter regard the outlook as unpromising, and entertain most pessimistic views. Politicians who were prepared to stake their reputation that Parliament would rise by the end of June now hint darkly that August is the earliest date upon which prorogation can be reached. The opinion seems to be held that if the eleotions in London and North Oxford are brought on it will mean marking time for a month or six weeks. And if these constitnences are not opened the Opposition will spend an equal number of weeks in trying to show that the Gov- ernment ought to have held the elections but were afraid to do so. This waste of time, of course, will go in under the pre- tence of wanting to thoroughly discuss the autonomy bills. Six months' ses- sions are now being made an annual oo- currence because of Opposition inability to understand that the majority must rale. Canadian Life Insurance. The preliminary abstract of the state- ment of the business of life insurance in Canada, issued by the Department of Finance, shows that the life insurance policy as a form of investment continue to be held in favor. ¶l here were in force in Canada at the closet. of 1904 in the stook of Old line colmpanies 656,891 policies, to the extent of $587,873,767, an increase over the .figure for 1903 of 53,068 policies and $39,430,767. The main item of the business of 1904 are given as follows: Premiums $19,969,324 Amount of new policies 98x306,102 Policies become claims 8,802,118 Claims paid, endowments included 8,815,839 Canada companies continue to hold the lead they won years ago, and wrote $11,• 959,100 of the total of $19,969,324 of new business recorded. The division was as. follows: Canada companies......:... 211,959,100 British companies .... 1,437,514 1J. S. companies 6,536,710 It would appear that the newer eom- tanies to enter she field find the work of establishing their claims to a share of the business a rather hard one. There are 21 Canadian companies doing bnsi- ness, and five of them wrote seven and a a half millions of the less than twelve millions of new policies the whole are credited with. Coals Not Lass His Oven Boots Back was so bad with kidneys disease -Cured by three box- es of Dr. Chase's Kidney -Liver Pitts. MR. SOLOMON Pornitilt, Caplin Hirer, Bona. verturo Co., Que., writes : " For two yearn 1 suffered a great dial from pains in the back and kidney disease. I tried many remedies, but with little 'benefit.

The report of the Ontario Game Com- mission for 1904 says, in part, that the winter of 1903-4 was so severe that in some localities quail were entirely swept out, and deer perished in large numbers through lack of food. The Government will be asked to make an annual grant for securing more quail, and to consider the advisability of making 1905 a close season for quail, Deer and moose af- forded good sport in 1904. The fur -bear- ing animals are becoAiing scarcer owing to the market valve of their pelts. '.Che commission, of which Montague A. A. Smith, is Chairman, urges legislation prohibiting the use of automatic and re- peating shotguns by Sportsmen. The re- ceipts of the same department from all sources were $19,347, and the expendi- tures $11,765 leaving a net balance to the Province of $7,582. The commis- sioners record their appreciation of the "faithful and painstaking manner in which the chief game warden. Mr. E. Tinsley, continues to discharge the duties of his office." Mr. Tinsley in his report to the com- mission regrets there are still a number of men in the Province who knowingly purchase from poachers raw furs or game illegally procured. On the whole, however, respect for the game laws is steadily growing. Otter are not increas- ing, and the prices for their skins, $15 to $20, prove a strong inducement to Indians or others to`;trap them. Beaver are making a satisfactory increase. During the year 5,238 deer licenses, 275 non-residents licenses, 152 moose licenses and 2,692 settlers' permits were issued. Temperance in Canada. It is refreshing to, be reminded that Canada is the most , temperate country in the world, according to the statistics which the Rev. Dr, Charles A. Eaton has gathered and given to the Globe newspaper, of the consumption (English gallons) of alcholic spirts per head. Country Consumption. Belgium 2.81 France 2 72 Italy 2.40 Western Australia...... 2.28 Germany 2 08 United Kingdom 2.05 Victoria . 1.16 United States i 1,15 Queensland 1.04 Cape Colony, .90 New South Wales .90 New Zealand ..., .73 Russia .60 Tasmania ' .55 Canada .. , .54 In the London Daily News a special Canadian correspondent wrote as fol- lows of the drinking customs of the country: "It Is a•rare thing to see any wine, malt liquor or other intoxicant on a dinner table in Canada, In Eng- land to drink intoxicants is society ortho- doxy; in Canada not to drink intoxicants is social orthodoxy." It might be added that in Britain to be seen under the influence of strong drink is no mark of disgrace; in Canada to be found reeling is to stamp a man as unfit for stip responsible employ- ment.. The red's of the railway service have done muel to referee the teaching of temperance. The spread of know- ledge regardingl'the evils of overindulg- ence has also had a beneficial effect. Abstention or moderate use is found to be a better qualification f'or the struggle in life than the excess which in former times was the usage in Canada, as else- where.. The Chicago bureau of identification has adopted the thumb print method of identifying criminals as an adjunct to the Bertillion measurement system. Executede are not often aware that in case they do not legally advertise for all accounts against the estate they are set- tling to be in by a certain date, and that in case accounts are afterwards presented they become personally responsible or in other words would have to pay amounts out of their own pockets. If a corporation takes gravel from n man's fatm and pays him therefor, ought the said corporation to fur they compensate the said farmer for the dam- age to his property caused by the exca- vation? This was the question that faced Mr, Justice Meredith in the Mid- dlesex assize court, at London,last week. The Judge decided that the owner df the gravel pit is not entitled to recom+ pense from the municipality, on account of the hole made procuring the gravel.

Petitions against its passage are being freely signed by both Reformersand a d Cone r iv e vat es, and yet the Chinon News Record" says that it is a measure that "will be approved by the people."

The venerable gentleman is, .1 course, a native of Scotland, his ba. thplace being at Mall, but his life since boyhood has been spent in Canada, and nearly half of his century had passed in "the heaithieet and prettiest town" in the Dominion. When a boy he came with his parents and their family to Cape Breton and there he was married, when about thirty- eight years of age, to Mary Meiienzie,' also a native of Scotland, she being born fn ihverneee. When he moved to God- erioh he had a family of six, and four children were born to him there.
