NOTES AND COMMENTS.
eeiThe annual meeting of the West
veteran Liberal Association will be held
are Dungannon ou Monday, June 3rd.
candidate for the House of Commons
11 likely be nominated at this meeting.
c It has been falsely alleged that the
crate at Ottawa have increased taxa -
n, whereas the faot is that the rate of
xation has been lowered. In 1896 the
Win debt woe $258,497,432, in 1907 it
t. only about $«00,000,000, A. very
nntall increase, represented by expendt-
veare on capital a000uut, while the debt
ler capita is largely decreased. In 1896
was $00.61 per capita, now it is only
Ps10.20.
vr. The monthly finauoial statement of
the Dominion, handed out last weak,
laving receipts and expenditures up to
Ietprii 31 in connection with the fiscal
lyear ending March 8.1 last, is the most
tnoonraging statement ever issued be
he history of the dominion. Final re.
ns for the year are not yet in, but it
s safeto say that when the books for
;the year are finally closed they will
.show a earplug of ordinary revenue over
'ordinary expenditure of over $18,000,000
and a net reduction of debt during the
nine months, constituting the last fiscal
period, amounting to about $7,500,000.
Hon. Mr. Fielding, in his budget speech
+of November Iast, estimated the surplus
at $18,000,000. A betterment of $5,000,-
000 between that estimate and the
actual results is a striking evidence of
the prosperity of the country and the
rapidly. gro wing revenues.
The government of Sir Wilfrid Lauri-
er is keenly sensible of Canada's great
Western heritage, with its vast natural
resources, its inexhaustible vitality, its
great wheat ares, its teeming sores of
grazing lanes, the iadustrial and com-
mercial genies of its enterprising, and
aggressive people. The government is
mindful of these considerations and in
the furtherance of its duty to the people
of the West, the government realizes its
duty, and appreciates that these people
'should not, by failure on its part, be
compelled to fall short of realization to
the fullest possible extent of their ob-
vious destiny. It is a principle of politi-
cal economy that the legitimate de-
mands 01 commerce for an outlet at the
point of least resistance cannot be long
delayed. and never ultimately frustrat-
ed. If the products of the West can be
brought 1,000 miler nearer a European
market via Hudson Bay, then that point
becomes de facto the natural outlet. The
government is giving favorable constd-
eration to this plain and more will be
heard of it next session.

DANGEROUS PURGATIVES,

Their Effect is Weakening.
Nothing could be wore cruel than to

tell you that a purgative tuedioine
merely gallops through the bowels,
weakening the tender tissues. Ile will
tell yon also that n purgative cannot
possibly care disease, or build up bad
blood. When the blood is weak and
watery, when the system le run down, a
tonic is the one thing needed -ie the
only thing that will put you right. And
in all this world there is no tonic rio good

exertiou, and I suffered greatly from
severe headaches. I tried several medi•
cines which seemed actually to•Ieave me
worse. Then I was advised to try Dr.
Williams Pink Pills, and a half dozen

that I would like every weak girl in the

not been for Baby's Ain) Tablets my
child would have be in her grave. She
was completely run down, would refuse

I gave her did her any good until I be-
gan the use of Babys Own Tablets and
these have changed her into a well and
growing child." Sold by druggists or
