Ei.4L1OTT, PaeLrsHER Amu PROVRI lTOR THURSDAY, JULY 16, 19Q3, NOTES ANP COMMENTS The Brookville Recorder records the fact that the charges against the Roblin Goverutneut in Manitoba are to be tried by a judge without a word of protest from the independent soul of the Torou• to News. The: greatest total of Customs col- lections in the history of the Dominion is slum for the fiscal year ending Jane 50th. Tho receipts were $36,619,659 for the year, and $3,570,685 for June alone. The increase for June $692,471, and the increase for the year, $1,566.863. Events, a non-political labor organ. published at Ottawa says: "The Ganiey partisans say that the judges' report is. pro -Stratton. Well, how could that be helped, after Mr. Gamey's counsel, Mr. Blake, wanted to throw up his brief in the middle of the investigation and WAS only coustraiued to retain it upou the request of the judges? Gamey told so many different stories so no one believed anything he said in the matter." The generosity of the Liberals to- wards their opponents is shown in an item of 000 which passed through the estimates the other day. This amount is to pay for the private secretary to the leader of the Opposition, Mr. Bordeu and has bden paid every year since the Liberals cause .into power. It is just double the amount that the Conserva- tives paid for a sedretary for Sir 'Wilfrid Laurier, when he was leader of the Opposition. The Chicago Tribune publishes the record of the Fourth of July accidents in 200 cities, rauging alphabetically all the way from Allegen, Mich.; to Zanes- ville, Ohio. The summary shows that 52 persons were killed and 3,065 iujured iu the celebrations. The loss of pro- perty by fire amouuted to $400,625. Toy pistols iujured 559 persons, and gun- powder used in home-made bombs and fireworka 768 victims. Firearms, care- lessly handled, iujnred 562 persons, pro- bably as many as are hurt iu hunting accideuts iu an entire year. Skyrockets caused 2u6 iujaries, cannon 319, and runaways 81, while "fireworks" un- classified, brought disaster to no less than 1,170. Notwithstanding the requirement of the Ontario government that all pulp- wood cut on crow" ': yds. iu this prove ince should be manufactured into pulp in the province, the exports of Canadian pulpwood to the United States grew front $57,197 iu 1890 to $1,194,593 in 1902. This is due to the fact that other provinces have not yet followed our ex- ample, and that ouly the Ontario regu- lation has a restricted application. There are now eight pulpwood agree- ments in existence in Ontario, and about WEAK AND FAINTING PLIGHT O$ ANAi~KIC 'nig SAD PL. PEOPLE,.

Thousands of gra teful women have said that these pills have restored them after all, other meaus tried had failed. Mrs, Joshes Moliory, eif Orangeville, Out., was a great suffer- er for several Sears and spent much money looking for a cure. To a re, porter of the Sun Mrs. McIlroy said: "Several years ago my health give out completely. I was so weak that I could not do my housework. If I went up- stairs my heart would palpitate violent- ly, and sometimes I would faint away through weakness. My nerves were unstrung, and I suffered much from dizziness. I tried many remedies, but they did not help me. Then I was advised to try Dr. Williams Pink Pills and decided to do so. I am glad I did for the pills soon built me up and made me a well women. My health remained good until last spring, when I was again taken with weakness. I now knew by experience the valve of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills and at once got a supply.

It takes an experienced undertaker to look solemn and conceal his satisfact- ion at a funeral. It seems queer, bat nevertheless it's a fact that illness is often the result of drinking well water.

Someone has solved a problem and offers the following explauation why a locomotive is called "she" :-"It wears a jacket, an apron, has hose and drags a traits behind it.

It will be seen from the tollowing statistics gathered from government re- turns, that the county of Huron has had its share of citizens afflicted with that worst of all chastisements, insanity.

During the twelve months ending with June, 124,658 immigrants arrived in Canada. Of these the United States supplied 44,930, British Isles 41,787, and the Continent 37,891. Next year the number will reach 200,000, and inside of five years we will be receiving half a million immigrants yearly. The C.P.R. sold 2,639,950 acres of North-West laud during the year ending June 30 for $9.693,950. That was over $3.50 per acre. The company received, all told, 25,000,10) acres of land, besides cash and finished railway, as a bonus for the building of its main line. Even if the selling price of the land is averaged at 13 per acre, that would make a total of $75,000,1.00 -more thau enough to build and equip the whole road. -Weekly Sun.

People of this Place There are people in every town and village of this country who have been cured of itching, bleeding and protruding piles by the use of Dr. Chase's Ointment. Ask your friend about this great pre- paration, they can tell you of its great soothing, healing and antiseptic powers. More reputable people have endorsed Dr. Chase's Ointment than any prepara- tion you can mention. Robt Holmes, M. P., writing from Ot- tawa to his paper, the Clinton New Era last week, says: -While the Cigarette Bill was under consideration in the House it was well known that strong pressure Was brought to bear upon the government, by the ladies of the W. C. T. 1J. to induce it to stand by the pro- posed legislation, and when the bill was t'arown out through a technicality,inem- bers of the government realized the ne- cessity of some form of legislation that might check the cigarette evil among the youth of the land, and to meet this the lion, Mr, Fitzpatrick has introduced an amendment to the Criminal Code, which will certainly become law. It provides Gott "Every one is guilty of an offence, and liable on summary convic- tion to a penalty not eitceeding $50 and not less than $10 to imprisonment with or without hard labor for 80 days, or both, who, either directly or indirectly sells Or gives, or furnishes to ft minor tin. der the a e',,-af:18 years, cigarettes, ci- gars, or 5 bacco in any form; provided how ever that this section shall not ap- ply to the stale toe, minor for his parent or guardian, under a written request or order of such patent or guardian.

Mr. Snyder addressed the meeting, Ile outlined the scope of the bill and said he had interviewed the power companies, one of which claimed to be able to deliver power in a year, and it was not up to the municipal- ities to ge together. The bill, hee, said, gave these options: 1. For the municipalities to devel- op, transmit and distribute power. through a commission appointed by, ustices. 2. To buy the power at its source, transntit and distribute, also under a similar commission, 3. To buy power delivered at their llimits and distribute it among the. consumers. In this • caso the muni- cipality will elect its own commis - Mr. Snyder's T,ecommendwtlon. Under clauses 1 and 2 municipal corporations will have to do their own financing, and it is a question, if they are ready to do so. It seems they are hardly ready for this step. Personally he thought it best to buy the power and do the distributing Mr. Snyder gave some interesting figures gleaned from the engineer's report made to the Niagara Power Commission. Ho claims that trans- mission of electricity by duplicate linos can bo made at $3,600 'a mile. To reach all these western corpora- tions about 200 miles would have to be covered. This would mean a cost of $720,000: -Add to that about 5160,00totals osf twill bo close onto $1000for right of way, and ,. 000, Tho engin'er who gave these figures designed the successful trans- mission line from California to Colo- rado. Allowing for the cost of maintenf ance annually, and distributing 20,- 000 0;000 horse -power, the entire cost would be mot by selling power at $5 per horse -power and paying oft tho indebtedness in 20 years. In carrying out the work under the third plan, which he considers most reasonable, it would be well to ap- point a committee of five, whose - duty it will be to merge the various municipalities into a group.

Prot. Koch's observations, prior to the celebrated London address, caused. the Health Office to appoint the com- mission to make systematic experi- ments. Tho commission summarizes as fol- lows: `"Phe series of experiments strengthens Prof. Koch's view that animal consumption as the cause of hunian consumption does not play the role generally attributed to it; but definite judgment requires further experimentation." In the discussion which followed Prof. Orth strongly combatted the view that human and animal con- sumption were dissimilar and non- transferable. F S.
