EDITORIAL NOTES.
UnitedStates speculators who under-
estimated the world's supply of sugar and
were nipped by the decline in price will
have scant sympathy from the sugar -
consuming public. In fact. the people
would rejoice to see some more speculator"
caught to the samerway.
Over in the States the Federal Trades
Commission has formally recommended
the dissolution of the International
Harvester Company as a monopolistic
concern. In Canada mergers are allowed
to go on unchecked. Where are the
people to look for the championship of
their rights ?
The census of Canada will be taken in
June of next year and arrangements for
the work are now being made at Ottawa.
It is estimated that the population will
prove to be not far short of nine millions.
The redistribution of Parliamentary seats
following the census will probably increase
the representation of the West and
reduce that of Ontario and the Maritime
Provinces.
The Globe in discussing the proposed
reataangeaent of Hydro power rates
persistently ignores the tact that the
waterpowers of the Province are the
property of the whole people. and not
alone of any particular set of municipali-
ties. This is one of the most important
considerations to be kept in mind in
discussing Hydro affairs. but The Globe
is desperately afraid that Toronto will be
deprived of the unfair advantage which
it now has in the matter of power rates.
The Globe, which at first treated the
proposal for uniform power rates with
disdain. is becoming alarmed at the
support which it is receiving in influential
quarters. On Tuesday it had a column
leader on the subject. pleading with
Premier Drury not to "destroy the
Hydro -electric system " The Globe
should calm itself. What Mr. Drury
peop,ses to do is not to "destroy" the
Hydr o electric system. but to reorganize
it on a basis that will be fairer to tbe
Provin„e as a whole.

the field for the office. Why ? 1 am told

'Talking with a letlding politician in
Flint today. I asked of him, 'What, in
your opinion, is the basic principle. the
most influential board in the platform of

"He answered, 'That he KNOWS his

thought.' And surely, so it is. Not
alone for the requirements of the poli•
titian. but for each and every one of us
individually. KNOW OUR TOWN. OUR
FELLOWMEN AND THEIR NEEDS,
AND HELP FILL THESE WANTS
That's not a selfish spent. is it ? No. it's
a grand spirit. It is a spirit that after
all, unfortunately, too many politicians
in both municipal and government halls
lack. That too many of us lack outside
Parliament and council. It's a spirit
that needs much cultivation. We could
all stand the harrows and the disc on oqr
soil in this regard. its altogether too
much SELF today, too little the wants
of the 'other' fellow. Build up our bank-

Metal New Yorker.
Not long since a member of the
Astor family sold a tract of band In
New• York ('sty at suction for
taps. It was hailed as remarkable
evidence of the great prosperity of
- New York. Instead of investing his
WAN • money In productive enterprises. we
�,gyat� are told tbet moat of It went into
Liberty hoodoo at St(s per cent.. so sto
to tstvtw the Income tax. In Meyer's
"History of the Great Amerlren For-
tunes," we are told bow this New
York property war originally obtain-
ed. It aegma to rompaw only part of
• tract of land which originally coot
$4.(Ifgt on foreelosinre of w mort-
gage. This property was made val-
ucalle largely at piddle expense
through city improvement. and en-
tirely e.1 through rents paid by the
public. The tact is that the greet
majority of the swollen American
fortunes have resulted from the orig-
inal control of city land by • few fam-
ilies. The public 1145 made these lands
ereedingly valuable. while the fam-
ilies ha re continual drswing Inereesel

on reliable authority that for some years
past the office has been good for around
$dO,000 foe a four-year term. The news-
paper I have the honor to represent in
part came out point blank two weeks ago
for c..'tdtdates for sheriff on a straight
salary basis, thus affecting a saving of
probably 510.000 a year anyhow to the
county. three of the twelve candidates
have gone on record as favoring the
straight salary edea. Why do the rest of
the men an tbe race want the office of
sheriff ? Is it because they want to ss.
Justice enforced ngidly in the county ?
Or is it because they --because they ? ?
? ? Let it remain unanswered.
