When the British Blue Book con tannins the proceedings the Coloni Al conference was made Public some of the conservative papers in this country could not refrain from Quot ing or. Chamberlain s argumentative presentation of the results of the limit Ash preference inaugurated by this Dominion and they attempted to turn or. Chamberlain s argument be fore the colonial premiers into an argument they could use in this country against the preferential treat mento British goods which if Ono of the most sweeping measures of reduction of Tariff taxation introduced go Trnini ill my sir Wilfrid Ami Liisi lint be journals and not Shmith Organ if the.

Courtien and a h til and 0 i a Cunt if Yon tuned and it is More than ungracious to taunt Canada with the Little she has done for the Empire when she has hazarded and in one Case received the retaliation of foreign countries in adopting the policy of preferential treatment of British goods. Again How narrow was the View taken by Secretary is shown by the omission to consider the effect can Ada s action on other parts of the Empire besides the United kingdom. Little attention was Given to this Point although the figures show How largely other British possessions have benefited by Canada s action. It must also be pointed out that can Ada s action has checked the slump which Wail in Progress Between 1s95 and 3sot in the imports from the United kingdom and that it has assisted in bringing the import values from this country to a total of More than nine record for the past sixteen years. Compared with .1890 and is it Canadian imports from the United kingdom have increased by nearly three millions a year and Canadian imports from British pos sessions have nearly doubled. Such favourable returns have been re corded had the preference not exist in Justice to the colonial Secre tary his speech at the colonial con Ference must be considered in connection with the occasion of its de livery and the fact that it was necessarily an arg Umont. The one Fea Ture of it which stands out Clear est to the View of Canada is or. Chamberlain s Plain statement that great Britain cannot give any return for a preference that does not go much farther than the present Brit ish preference in this country. The willingness of the Dominion govern ment to go muh farther was form ally expressed to the British govern ment by the Canadian ministers. The Pulley of the conservative party in i the Dominion parliament is on the co urary a poli by of opposition to the present i British preference on the ground that it goes too far. Rio far Aro or. Borden and his followers from i in willing to go that they have placed themselves on re Cord As favouring Only the sort of British preference which would be i rely nominal and worthless. The conservative preferential minimum Tariff would at All times secure the Canadian Market to is to say to the Canadian manufacturers. It would be worthless to great Britain. An apology in order. Deliberate and Ross the americanization of knowledge of statistics relating to any country needs knowledge of the actual conditions of the country and the life and thought of its people to give the statistics vital meaning. This truth is for Canadian readers written Large across the face of two articles one in the fortnightly review the other in the monthly review which have been attracting no Small Meas ure of attention in great Britain. Both articles raise the alarm that Canada is being americanized to an extent which makes her future loyalty to great Britain a matter of doubt an alarm which can Only be explained As the outcome of a Lack of actual con tact with Canadian life on the part of the writers of the articles. Or. Archibald kurd who writes in the fortnightly presents in serried array the statistics of the immense migration that is in Progress from the Western states into Western can Mig Rution of Thrifty industrious and energetic men and women who Are anxious and determined to succeed nearly All of them Are capitalists who bring not Only their fam Ilies but considerable sums of Money gained from the Sale of their old this american invasion of Canada makes or. Kurd uneasy for to lips future. He makes out on paper by Means of statistics quite a Case in behalf of his uneasiness but does not appear to see How Little of it is left after the admission which he is constrained to make that of the s01 people from the states who had entered the Dominion by last Christ Mas have already been Natur and the further fact which he quotes that they find that Canada is an even Freer country than the Liberty Loving states and that their actions Are less fettered by Central authority while they enjoy equal Security of life and the article in the monthly review which is by or. W. Beach Thomas follows the same lines As or. Hurds but or. Thomas while sharing or. Hurd s alarm on account of the american rises to Heights of alarm far above or. Hurd s in regard to Ihu population of Lanada which is of French descent. But these alarm Jetters to the Sci Tor.

Of this coun voluntarily prison Tariff prefer ence on British As having resulted in an of British imports into thin country amounting to Only per cent., is reflected in an article in the British Trade Journ Al a commercial paper of influence and authority which when Canada freely gave this country preferential Tariff treatment she was making an important de parture from established list no pol Ley she did not fear the retaliation of foreign countries and her action at that Lime was received with the most profuse acknowledgements including those of the colonial Secre tary himself. _ it if.

Koblin when the commission was appointed by order in Council it was announced that its report would be the basis of further action by the government. _ but if As the Public Are now told or. Robiin knows it All what was the need of appointing the commission that the agricultural College announcement made with so much pre meditated boastful Ness by or.

Mrs. De. Bell. Winnipeg dec. I. Railway accidents. To the editor of the free press. _ appalling Accident of the Lith on the grand trunk brings forcibly to one s mind the Many which have occurred within the last few months. Lives valuable lives i presume have been lost with Only a p newspaper notice that a rail Road Accident happened and this Usu ally ends up with the item that some inferior Olti Cial was at fault. Kir is it not the Law of the land that such official or officials should be adjudged by the Powers that be As to culpability Why is it not looked into is it not the rail Road magnates or those in High authority who Are to Dame Rumor has it that in the late Virden Accident the men in charge of the in coming train were asleep at their posts through overwork and Only awoke at the rumble crossing a Bridge about to Yards away and too late to Avert the Accident. To doubt Railroad companies in carefully As to the origin and causes of such accidents but How much information they give to the Public upon these Points is some what of a conundrum u Ould it not be Wise to have some system of Legal into such accidents and their ? so that the Public might have of Iclal information upon which they could rely at present if anyone is killed in such Accident tile Only information reaching the Public of an official nature is through a Coroner s jury and that is often i May almost say always very unsatisfactory. Some system that would thoroughly sift such cases and place the blame aright is n necessity which Public safety demands. Austin Francis. Winnipeg dec. A proposed Speedway. To the editor of the free press. See that there is a movement among the horsemen of Winnipeg and also lovers of Good horses to ask for a Speedway on some Street one Day out of the week As they have no place to enjoy a Little spurt or show a Little Speed unless such a Street is granted to them by the City coun cil. All other cities have them and Why not Winnipeg we can boast of having is Good a class of horses Here As they have in the East and if a purchaser wants to see a horse move he is told we cannot do any speeding Here. We would like to hear from the Council through your Valu Able paper As to the movement be fore making a petition to the Council. Lover of the horse. Winnipeg dec. 110.

Their need of bait of any and every sort for the forthcoming pilgrimage which has to be made to the deep Waters of the general election is being anxiously realized by these gentlemen As the Days Speed by. To understand paralysis and its causes in. Is Well to remember Taftt every movement of the body or its members is due to the contraction of muscle which can Only take place under the influence of nerve Force. As this All important nerve Force is created in the nerve centres of the brain and Cord and con ducted along wire like nerve fibres to the various parts of the body any derangement of the brain spinal Cord or nerve fibres May result in paralysis or loss of the Power of move ment. Paralysis then is the natural re sult of All neglected nervous Dis eases. If you Fin j. Yourself nervous and irritable Over sensitive to Light sound and motion addicted to continual movement or tapping of the fingers twitching of the Muscles sudden starlings and jerking of the limbs during sleep if you have nervous headache and dyspepsia Are unable to sleep or rest feel Down hearted and discouraged and unfit to fight the Bat Les of life if your nerves Are weak and exhausted and your blood thin and watery you have every reason to fear paralysis of at least some part of the body and consequent suffering and helplessness. Paralysis can always be prevented and partial paralysis actually cured by the timely use of or. Chase s nerve food. Thi time to begin treatment is when any of the above mentioned symptoms become apparent. These Are indications of a degeneration of the nerve Ceils and when nerve Force be comes exhausted paralysis is bound to follow. Or. Chase s nerve food acts on the system in an entirely different Way to Ordinary medicines. It is neither a stimulant to whip tired to renewed activity nor a narcotic nor opiate to Deaden the nerves. On the contrary it is a food cure which forms new red corpuscles in the blood and creates new nerve cells. Every Day it is bringing Back health strength and vitality to scores and hundreds who have become discouraged through the failure of Doc tors and other treatments to cure them.
