For years have the Americans boasted loudly of the liberty of their country, but it wsuld appear that a certain section »rc'b«gii.nin(? to change their ideas of the amount of liberty enjoyed by Americans as compared with Canadiansâ€" and the decision is that there may be more talk of liberty in that country,â€" but no ground for this Ulk at the final mootint! of the American Federation of I^abor convention held in Toronto the resolu- tion was passed : That the freedom of speech which we have exercised during the present con- vention without judicial restraint based on auperconstituiional and self -arrogated authority has been more in conformity with the fundamental principles of a free and self-governing country i,han is po.ssible at present in the United States tif America. It is also discovered that there lf< more rush of businees in London, Eng., than in Ntw York, but less talk of it. Thn eagle's screech is easily heard, but when hoard too often it becomes tiring, and unheeded. people were not ready for provincial prohibition, but after this January the probability is that over half of the province will bo under prohibitory laws, ' and then our representatives in tho' Legislative halls will see their duty. Being men they will be expected to dfi | their duty. CHURCH UNION. Tlie tendency towards churcc tinion is becoming gradually stronger. It is not for us t<j Bjiy when the ideal schenio will )je consumated, but that time will seo the change we doubt not for a moment. Tho Presbyterian anij Methodist peoples at lianccml, Alta., have gone a long way toward solving the difficulty. They jointly built a phice of worship, and each Sunday one denomination meets in the morning and ono in tho evening. In this way tho doctrines of both peoples echo in tho same walls in a spirit of friendliness and Christian good will. Tliis reminds us of a yarn wo onco heard at a church social, which did not indicate a sipiilar sentiment. In a town vere a Biiptist, a Presbyterian and a Methodist church. Tlie former l)ought a bell to call tho wcirslajJiHira and each Sunday it called out "We are the people! We are the jieoplo 1 " In time the Presbyterians got a bell too, and it lx)om- od out "No you're not ! No you're not 1 " At last the Methodists made an effort and got a bell also, adding to tho chorus ♦'We've got one too 1 We've got one too I " THE SPORTING PAGE. "Red Hawk Beats Fred Simiwon." "Longboat Gets $1,000." "Yonkors Marathoners." "Meadows is Ready." These are headings in one Toronto nows- iwper recently. Tliey tell in no uncertain voice what is to be expected on tho sporting {>agcs from now on. Tliey will act somewhat in tho same manner as docs | a red cloth with a vicious bull, to tho I crusty old gent who never ran in his life unless to catch a ear, or at least that has . totally forgotten his running days. He will grit his teeth and mgo about tho degenerate age in which the j)apers waste column after colun-.n over two follows chasing each other around a building. But why sliould ho kick? If he doesn't like the sportnig page ho doesn't havo to read it, and can confine himself to tho hcadlincrs telling of murders, abduc- tions, divorces, accidents, hold-ups and so on. It is a (jucstion to us if tho sporting page is not belter reading than the front page of tho average metroiKditan news- paper. And if the sporting page gives a stimulus to honest sport it does worlds more good than the rest of tho paper put together, and who will try to argue differently in the light of tho suicides, fires, and even iunnoral advertisements which often times aro found in many newBi>ai)ers. ONTARIO "DRYING UP," Thta January two oitiee, PeterborouRh •nd Branttord, and about one hondrod »nd fifty towns, village* and townships will Tot« on Local Option. Tbia is by long o4d* ths greatest number to try it In Miy one year, and though namereua defeats are inevitable, the feeling Is that the conteats will be sucoesaful for the supporters of the by-law in the majority of In Oatstio there are already three baadred and thirty fonr municipalities out of a total of eight hundred and six in which (here is no legal sale of liquor. There are ninety-two othora which have voted "dry" under aubstantial majoriliea, but noi large enough to clear the obstacle of the three-fifth* vote. The Legislators one time said thai tho A "Why go to Canada?" campaign baa bceu ioAuguratcd in the United States, Tberc's a reason. Wilfred Lauricr on Saturday celebrated his 68th birthday. We wish him "many happy returns," A commercial airship line will be started in Germany this coming spring. Next thing to a "bee hne," isn't it r Our readers will donbtless notice signs of new life iu this column. The muse has inspired the writer af ain, under the farorable influence of Tenison roaitfl. It is announced that scientists bare discorered a process for melting wood. That must be the same prooees which eaoses our woodpile t^ melt away so rapidly these days. An exchange objects to the law which permits tno deer to be shot |by each hunter. To get suob things Jas this ont of bis system we would suggest that the editor of that paper take a week off some year and go on a deer hunt. The Scientific American gives a description of throe styles of guns designed for destroying balloons. Cornell University will establish a chair for aeronautics next year. The world is moving on. In a short time the term "up iu the air" will have lost its significance. At the time of the recent election a Montreal daily published a widely copied article headed "It pays to be Yellow." The article was inspired by the support which Hearst, the "Yellow" newspaper man, appeared to be receiving. In tho light of after- election even's does it pay to be Yellow? We think not. The editor of a Toronto weekly objects to tho Lord's Day Act., on tho ground that the rich may break it with impunity. Well, ho needn't howl . Surely there is enough left after tho printers aro paid and ta.xcs squared up to allow this editor suf- ficient of tho "ready" to brtak tho law. Now, if ho wore a country editor, . The news comes by way of Flugstaff, Arizona, that Mars has had a violent snowstorm. Tho circulation of stories of this kind, whether true of false, is, to say at least, not tactful. Mars is probably as touchy about its climaio as Canada is, and it will bo ditlicult to establish pleacant relations with that planet if we start in by nicknaming it Our Lady of tho Snows.â€" Mail and Empire. Yes, and more than that, the C. P. R. or some other big railway over there might refuse to grant special rates when there is any celebration on, on tho grounds that it savors too much of the winter carnival idea. Is there anything iu the open air that corrodes ones veracity? There must be something in outdoor life with a degrading tendency if ono is to believe everything he is told. One "old trapper" will risk hia reputation that there will be no sleighing until lato in December. Another solemnly declares we are gomg to have a hard winter. Still another comes along with the statement that the squirrels aro still running around and so the winter will be short and pleasant. Where are we at? Surely these men aro not all correct. It seems to us that there are so many "signs" that they are boimd to become muddled. Dat there is one infallible sign of winterâ€" oar wood pile is visibly sbrinkingi Signs point to the speedy spanking of a wry naughty "small boy"â€" this same "small boy" being nothing less than President ZeUya of Nicaragua, and the one to administer the spank- ing is our eonthem neighbor. Uncle Bamne!. Several Americans were taken prisoners by the Micaraguans while participating in a revolution a- gainst President ZeUya, and altera conrtmartial were shot. The Ameri- cans consider that tho shooting was the outcome of the personal enmity of Zelaya to one of the prisoners and that he wasn't "playing fair" to act as he did â€" that he did not deal with the prisoners according to the rules of international law relating to prisoners of war. Talk is rife of properly punishing this freehanded President, but what form the punish ment will take remains to be seen. At any rate, despatches say that unusual activity !is noticeable in the navy and that I troops are being prepared to take a trip to the canal zone or Nicaragua . next Saturday, i I The statistical Editor of The Ad- ; vance has discovered that in a list of ! cighty-threo inquiries in a recent number of Industrial Canada, from foreign dealers, sixty came from South Africa. These inquiries were for articles ranging from binder twine, lard and breakfast foods to motor cars. This would indicate that a great in- terest is being taken in Canada by South Africans. Liberals will attri- bute this state to good government, while Conservatives will claim it to be due to the weather. We refrain from stating our convictions, but simply stay on the fence in the matter. It is interesting and gratifying to note those inquiries, however. Ten in- quiries were from London and four from Australia, It was from Mauri- itius that the request for information as to manufacturers of breakfast foods came. It is rather astounding to find that the predigested sawdust and shavings have not invaded even the most distant of places. Possibly Mauritius was ovei looked in the rush of business, and tho error will be rectified. Burned to Death Near Collingwood. Mr. and Mrs. James Dand, and Mrs. Gowlor, tho latter 's mother, wei-e burned to death near Collingwood on Thursday of last week. The fire was first noticed in the kitchen, but it had gained too much headway to permit of rescuing the aged people. Mr. and Mrs. Dand leave an adopted daughter, Grace Dand, who is a school teacher in Norland, Victoria. The Dand farm is about half a mile from the scone of tho Glory Whalen tragedy of 1903. Rabbits are so plentiful here-abouts this fall that one can take a random shot into a swamp anywhere and can imagine ha sees the fur fly.â€" Says The Dundalk Herald. .
