Thurston . . Editor LIBELLERS AND THIEVES Tlio libel cnse of Sir Frederick Borden against one Carruthcrs, who circuUttid a copy of the Eye-Oj)ener containing scur rilous charges ai^iost Mr. Borden, was completed la«t week. The charges were not sustained and C'nrruchers was fined ihe Douiiual sum of one hundretl doUaru. The anomaly exists in this country of a man of no financial standing being allowed to publish 8Cur:ilouK, indeienl and libellous matter without hindrance, except in the way of refusing him adiiiis- «'on to the mails; but when a responsible ajent is discovered circulating copies of the p«p«T he can easily be made to suffer. We call it an auomaly, bicause, if the actual circulating of n criminal libel is an •ict worthy of imprisonment, the publish er ought to be equally guilty and as easily jlot at. Why was nut the publisher of the Kye-Opener iropeiched as well as the man who circulated the article complained of? He seems to be ignored while bit tools are aeiu'd upon. Tliit libelling of our public men is something that should bn prevented at all coiils. If it were to continue un- checked it would soon destroy the use- fulness of public servants and make it still more ditHcult than it ia nowâ€" nod it IS hard enoughâ€" to get our best men to enter [Kiliiics. Very many of the bett men in the country nro prevented from entering pjblic service because of fiensitivenesa and the fact that they are not properly protected from Ihe vilifiur and sUndorer, who always finds willing ears to listen to his initurablo t'lles. "Who steals my purse, steals trash ; 'lis something, nothing ; 'twas mine, 'ti« his, and has beei slave Ir) thousandH ; hut ho that filches fioni me my good name, robs me of that which not enriches liiui, and makes me poor indeed." An attempt at stealing one's good name should carry with it a heavier penally than the ordinary crime of theft. The Weekly Hun editorially refers to the necessity of two old men, single- handed, working tlieir own farms, and lays the blame at the feet of the young men who gravitate westward. To ns it appears that if a man, by the time lie has reached 70 or 80 yeart of age, is not in a position to retire from the farm, tliere must be something wrong with either the land or himself, most probably the latter, and that westward movement or not, lie would still be found slaving in the field. It is all very well for an old man to do light work if his strength permits, but at the age of 84 it is lime to knock off workâ€" especially the strenuous woik of Iho tiller of the soil. Another side of the mail order bufii- ncss is shown by one of our exchanges. The editor found it impossible to get a proper price for advertising space from Iiomo morcliants, and so accepted an advertisement from a Toronto mail order house at a higher rate than the local merchants paid. The point is' Montreal. It is to be hoped that we this: If it would pay this foreign firm are not being bound up in a series of to use the space at the advanced rate, 'combines to injure trade and progrcsis. cash down, what kind of a gold mine [This will need to be watched, have the local merchants with their' o o o cheaper rates, and unlimited credit'?: In conversation with a lady The The heads of the mail order firm arc I Advance was asked why the average wide-awake, and have an accurate idea fanner's wife did not make better of the value of advertising, and so do butter.

To us it appears that the suggestions are escelleut.and that if they weib follow > ed the standard of the butter delivered to our stores would be considerably higher than it now is.

A Great Debate Whether Great Biitain shall ahandon it-t flue trade polxy or reimiiii fuiihful to , Cobdenisin is the is«ue whiuh is emerging from the natioiiiil debute on Ihe budget. Tlint debate begun in Parliament in > April, when the finance bill »ii8 mtro- | ductd, with ils increaatd death duties and | its new taxes on the uhearnod inrreiiient ill land, proposed to raise tho money needed to pay the incieiisi.ig expei'Ses of ' governiucnt. The deb&te 1ms spread, until the great political leaders are niak- | ing an appeal to tlie coui try at largo for , the support of their vi.ws. The discus- : si'in reached a climax last month, when I two former preiiiiors joined in opposition j to the policies of the present government. Lord Rosebury, who succeeded Mr. I Ghidatoiic lis Liberal prime iiiiiiibtcr, in ii , Ola'g'W speech has attacked what he | regards as Ihe socialistic proposals of his former Liberal party associates. He charged them with proposing a revo- lution in taxation methods without tho authority ot the voters, and declared that heaxy ta.ves on land values and on other capital are undermining the prosperity of the empire. Mr. Asquith, the present prime minis- t'.r, who maintains that the alternative to the budget proposals is the abandonment of free trade, declared iu Ginuingham, a week later, that the rejection of the budget will produce financial chaos, and ; will raise issues ot the greates'; gravity. : The chief of those issues grows out of the i disputed right of the House of Lords to j reject financial proposals of tho House c.f : Commons. Mr. B;ilfour, the last Conservative â- , premier, replying to Mr. A«qu th, has frankly alligned himself with the advo- cates of a trading and revenue tarriff. He paid that Great Britain must come to this method of raising revenue and pro- moting business, or the country will be- come irretrievably sociulistic, and fall still further behind Ihe I'liited States and Germany as a manufacturing nation. It seems to be expected in Lor don that i this great i.ssue will soon lead to a general election, when the country will be called i upon to decide tho question.â€" Youth's j Companion. J. andW.
