NOTES AND COMMENTS.
The returns of eneigraute from English
ports to Canada during the month of
September give the numbers as: English,
4.187; Irish, 340; Scatah, 767; foreigners,
$,030. During the previous eine mouths
the figures were: English, 42,823; Irish,
2,846; Scotch. 9,877.
All signs point to the fact that Cana-
dians may as well prepare fora bump
when the. Alaska Boundary Commission
makes its award. "The result," says
the telegraphic report, "will be a com-
promise." No doubt, one of those kind
of compromises where the Yankees get
all they want and Canada gots the rest. -
Belleville Intelligencer.
The report of the Committee of the
Mouse of Commons on Agriculture states
that the export value of Canadiau farm
and food products in 1890 was $24,000,-
, and in 1902 it was $80,000,000, or
art increase of $56,000,000 in ten years.
Herein is found the whole explanation
of the cause of Canada's present prosper-
ity. and of the reason for the Sow of im-
migration in this direction.
An exceptionally rich silk cargo was
recently sent East over the Canadiau
Pacific from Vancouver. It came by
the Empress of India, and was valved
at $1,728,900. It was sent East by a
special train, speed being an important
element in this traffic. The raw silk
trade via the elauadian 1'acifio has been
heavier this year than ever before. Van-
couver has become the greatest silk port
on the continent.
The American people since 1865 have
paid out three billion dollars in pensions,
the annual average being eighty million,
The pension disbursements have been
$700,000,000 in excess of the expeneiture
on the army dnriug that period and are
nearly thrice the expenditure on the
navy; they were $500,000,000 greater
than the total interest on the public debt.
Nearly a million pensioners are oa the
rolls, over a quarter of a million being
widows.
When Sir William Mulock took hold
of the Canadian postoffice a deficit of
$761,000 stared him in the face. He is
now able to show a surplus of $292,702,
oa the year's operations, but this plain
statement does not represent all his
achievement. He has had to extend the
postal service to the Yukon, at a loss of
$10,000 yearly. If the postal area in
Canada were the same as in 1897, he
could show a surplus of $395,361. Over
and above this he has saved the people of
Canada a million dollars by the reduc-
tion of rates, and he has given them a
better, as well as a cheaper service.
Mr. Borden and the G. T. Pacific.
From the Ottawa Free Press.
If Mr. Borden has made a mese of
this matter his inexperience should be
gently remembered by his friends, who
ought also bear a forgiving mind in con-
sideration that he has had a hard row to
hoe. What would Sir John Macdonald
himself have done in opposition to a
great constructive scheme prepared with
extreme economy, the utmost care for
the public interest, and faithful adapta-
tion to the idea of Canadian expansion.
What could he have dgne in Opposition
had trade been fin urithing in 1876.78
had industry been humming uuder a
judicious tariff, had successive and ever
increasing surpluses of many millions
been in the Treasury, had immigrants,
of the best quality been swarming into
the Dominion, had the Ministry been
generally regarded as up-to-date in every
department and pushing everywhere the
most admirably devised public works?
It is not so much the fault of Mr. Bor-
den as it is the merit of Sir Wilfrid's
management and the effect of the Dom-
inion's general prosperity, that the Op-
p.)sition cuts such an amusing figure in
asking Canada to put Sir Wilfrid Laurier
and Mr. Fielding out that Mr. Borden
and Mr. Haggart may come in.
Protruding and
Bleeding Piles
Are "positively and permanently eared by
Dr. Chase's Ointment.
It is popularly believed that nothing short of
a surgical operation will cure protruding piles.
That this is not so has been proven again and
again where Dr. Chase's Ointment has been
tested.
Mn. GEO. BAKER, painter, 103 Fuller St.,
Parkdale, Toronto,, states :-"When one has
received great benefit from a remedy after
being disappointed many times, it becomes a
pleasure and a duty to recommend it to others.
Such is my experience with Dr. Chase's
Ointment. Fee the last eight years I have
been a continual sufferer from protruding and
bleeding piles, which seemed worse when
walking or working. In fact I was in agony
With them most of the time.

without any success whatever, until I obtained

cation of this preparation I felt an improve.

RHEUMATISM CURED
A RIGHT WAY AND A WRONG WAY
TO TREAT THE TROUBLE.
Liulmepts and Outward Applications Can-
not Cure -The Disease Dust be Treat-
ed Through the ]blood.
Rheumatism is one of the most cora-
mon ailments with which humanity is
afflicted, and there are few troubles
which cause more aoute suffering. There
is a prevalent ehtiou, also, that if a per-
son once coutraets rheumatism it is
hound to returaiucold or damp weather.
This is a mistake; rheumatism can be
thoroughly driven ont of the system, but
it must be treated through the blood as
it is a blood disease. Rubbing the affect-
ed joiuts and limbs with liniments and
lotions will never cure rheumatism.
though perhaps it may give temporary
relief. Dr. Williams' Pink Pills have
cured more cases of rheumatism than
perhaps any other disease except anae-
mia. These pills drive the rheumatic
poison out of the system by their action
on the blood, and the trouble rarely re-
turns if the treatment is persisted in un-
til the blood is in a thoroughly healthy
condition.
As an illnstration of how even the
most aggravated form of this trouble
yield to Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, the
case of Mr. J. J. Richards, of Port Co -
borne, Ont., may be cited. Mr. Rich-
ards says:-"Abont three years ago I
suffered from a most severe attack of
rheumatism. I could neither lie down
nor sit up with any degree of ease, and I
am quite sure only those who have been
similarly afflicted can understand what
agony I have endured. I put myself un-
der the care of an excellent doctor but
got no benefit. Then I tried another
and still another, with no better results.
13y this time I had become so reduced in
flesh that friends hardly knew me; I
could not move hand or foot and had to
be turned in bed in sheets. The pain I
endured was something awful. Then I
was urged to try Dr. Williams' Pink
Pills and after taking a few boxes there
was, an appreciable change for the better;
the pains began to leave me, and my
joints began to limber. I kept on taking
the pills until I had used a dozen boxes,
by which time every trace of the trouble
had disappeared. I firmly believe that
had it not been for Dr. Williams' Pink
Pills I would have been a rheumatic
cripple for life."
These pills not only cure rheumatism,
but all other blood and nerve diseases,
such as anaemia, indigestion, kidney
troubles, neuralgia, partial paralysis, St.
Vitus dance, etc. The genuine pills al-
ways hear the full name, "Dr. Williams'
Pink Pills for Pale People,"on the wrap-
per around every box. Sold by all medi-
cine dealers at 50 cents a box, or six
boxes for $2.50, or sent by mail, post
paid, by writing to the Dr. Williams'
Medicine Co., Brockville, Ont.

ed by the provincial board of health,

compared with 46,061 in 1901; an increase
of 1,735. Marriages numbered 18,072,aa
increase of 37 over 1901. There were

figures result as follows: 1902, births,
22.2; marriages, 12,2; deaths, 15.8; 1901,
births, e/.6; marriages, ;12,1;; deaths,
16.6.

A PASSIONATE REV
Lord Chief Justice Alverstone Ori
His Qritics.

Thine Said at Lord lleyer's
Dinner.
London, Oct, 14. -The members of
the counsel and the attaches of the
Alaskan Boundary Tribunal were en-
tertained by the Lord Mayor of Lon-
don, Sir Marcus Samuel, at a ban-
quet at the Mansion House last
night. Attorney -General Finlay and
Sir Edward Carson were notable ab-
sentees, but most of the others as-
sociated with the case were present.
It was a memorable occasion, attend-
ed by all the ancient customs, loving
cups, city liveries and gorgeously,
appareled footmen.
The Lord Mayor proposed tib.
health of President Roosevelt, wha
the band played the "Star Spangled
Banner," Then His Lordship pro-
posed the toast of the "Alaskan
Boundary Tribunal." He declared
that the present method of the sub-
mission to a tribunal of a dangerous
dispute between two great nations
would be a lasting lesson of peace to
the world.
Lord Chief Justice Alverstone, in-
replying, after referring to the death
of Sir Michael IIerbert, said that
though the Tribunal was not an il-
lustration of arbitration, it was "an
honest and patriotic attempt to solve
by mutual discussion subjects which
might become serious. I have no
fault to find with anything that has
been said and done. We have pro-
ceeded with great unanimity, and I
only wish that those who do not un-
derstand the motives of the Tribunal
would abstain from attributing mo-
tives to its members which do not.
exist."
This open reference to Canadian
criticism of Lord Alvcrstone's sup-
posed pre -disposition towards the
American case caused no little sensa-
tion.
ensestion. It was followed by Lord Al-
verstone somewhat passionately da
claring that in a long public career
he had never objected to criticism
after he had taken a certain course
of action, but he did bitterly resent
criticism beforehand.
Secretary Root followed with a,
speech. Amid intense silence he de-
picted Sir Michael ,Herbert's sweet
reasonableness "and the loss sus-
tained by both nations by the Am-
bassador's death."
"Some thought," continued Mr.
Root, "that the Americans and Ca-
nadians came to London because
Alaska was a wonderland of claim-
ants, but the greatest object lesson
of the whole proceeding was that the
United States had such trust in
Great Britain that she was willing
to meet and discuss a question Vltq1
to her, not in a neutral capital, blit
in a capital belonging to one party
to the controversy. Nothing could
more emphasize the absolute confi-
dence of all, parties in the good
faith, generous hospitality and fair
play of the English people."
Sir Louis Jette echoed the senti-
ments expressed by Mr. Root on be-
half of Canada, and Senator Lodge
declared that the rapidity of the
proceedings was a lesson to all na-
tions who avoided such a pacific me -
shod of settlement on the ground of
prolonging procedure.
Messrs. Dickinson and Robinson re-
sponded on behalf of America and
Canada respectively, and Ambassa-
dor Choate proposed the health of
the Lord Mayor and Lady Samuel.
WHAT IT IS BASTED ON.
Ground For Believing Lord Alverstone
Will Sid. With Yankees.
Ottawa, Oct. 14. -In the Commons
yesterday, Sir Wilfrid Laurier read
the following .able from Lord Alver-
stone, the chairman of the Alaskan
Boundary Tribunal:
"Laurier, Ottawa:
"London, Oct. 13. -There is not
the slightest foundation for state-
ment attributed to me in Reuter
telegram from Ottawa, dated 12th
October, as to questions in House of
Commons on that date. I have made
no communication of any kind to
any diplomatic officials or to any
person respecting the case. The re-
port is an absolute fabrication.
(Signed) "Alverstone."
In reply to Mr. Bordon, Sir Wilfrid
Laurier said that no cablegram had .
been received from Mr. Aylesworth.
Mr. Aylesworth Speaks.
London, Oct. 14. -Nothing was giv-
en out regarding the deliberations of
the Alaskan Tribunal, which adjourns -
ed till to -day,
Mr. Aylesworth, the Canadian
Commissioner, in relation to the
question in the Dominion Parliament
Monday on the subject of an inter-
view with him, yesterday made the
following statement to the Associat-
ed Press:
"Being asked a few days ago whe-
ther there was any likelihood that
the decision of the Tribunal would
be influenced by diplomatic consider-
ations, Mr. Aylesworth replied,
speaking for himself, that he cer-
tainly would never consent to give
away a single inch of territory he
believed to be I3ritish,"
The Canadian story created some
concern. It appears certain that nei-
ther Mr. Aylesworth nor Sir Louis
Jetts has the slightest intention of
agreeing to the American arguments.
The Americans still have Ito two*
to diminish their feeling of hopeful-
uses that some agreement will bet
swathed, this feeling is largely babel
on the trend of Lord Alveratone'tt
