A numbe at complaint; and re- quests were made, most of which had been the subject of discussion or correspondence bt-fore.

We had been assured before that the gauge of the railway in tltu Eastern part of the Province would be brought up to standard "when the state of federal finances would permit." We have no better assur- ance now-not so good in fast-for both the railway receipts and the Dominion revenues have sadly fall- en off and both the Government and the Railway Directorate are committed to extensive und costly railway building in the Far West and to the erection of a political million elevator at Halifax where there is no grain to elevate.

Now provincial pztrlluments have protested, but the Dominion Parliament, which is more or less atthe beck and call of the big com- bines and trusts, refuses to help them and indeed rather lends its countenance to the immigration of greater numbers It is_ estimated there are nearly 20,000 unemployed in Toronto. There ls scarcely a city in the whole of Canada which has not got to face the problem, yet there are people scoundrelly enough to take the last savings of unem- ployed men in return for dumping them in a strange country to “be more miserable than ever."

A friend of mine handed me this argument the other day.

“You talk about our fort-fathers. how they ste plain food, worked in the open, and bud good strong bodies.

There was ho reason why they should not have had good bodies, because there was not much else for them to do in those old days ex- cept work, cat. and rest. lf they were living in our time when men fly in the air, travel under water, can get from pldcu to place in u short time in motor cars, can go to a good show, to a good picture, can travel around the world, in fact have one hundred and one things to do besides work, l wonder would they be any wiser in the, use 0f their bodies than we are?!’

A LESSON TO BE NOTED

Sfr,——ln the latest Newfoundland tragtdy there ls a lesson for every autuist. Six men lost their lives be- cause the driver of the automobile which was the means 0f their death was under the influence of liquor. A jury of the drivers countryman. after trial- found that he was guilty of the awful crime of Manslaughter. Thut the sentence imposed-int- prisontttettt for out, year-was evid- ently inadequate to the punishment of tht- crime ls a fact for comment.

The fact that it has been established lulaw that the person who directs an au- to while under the influence in- toxicating of liquor of any kind is guilty of manslaughter when he causes the death 6f other persona only makes certain thahwhlch rea- son dictates. lt might even be argu- ed that- knowing he ought to be ab- solutely sober and steady, the au- tomobilist who takes intoxicat- lng liquor of any kind before tak- ing charge and direction of a car and then causes the death of anoth- er person is guilty of the graver cr.'tne of murder he knows that he does tha-t which may cause death.

It is for this reason that reason- able thinklng men who drive autom- ublles abstain from the use of in- toxlcntlng’ liquor. There ls an un- tierstantlittg among auto-drivers in California and elsewhere that they must and shall abstain from the use of intoxicants before entering and taking charge and control of their cars.

The defeat of Mr. Porter In West Haatinga and the election of Mr» Hanna takes one off the Conservtr tivc representation from Ontario and adds onu to its Liberal re- presentation.
