â€"â€"â€"â€"â€"unwillingnessâ€"ofâ€"theâ€"standpattersâ€"to tolerate anything in the way of teâ€" ciprocal arrangements is responsible for driving an increasing number of ; valuable industries across the border Into Canada. It quotes the announceâ€" ment recently made by the president of the Plymouth Cordage Company § that arrangements had been made to build a new cordage factory in Canâ€" ada for the purpose of supplyingâ€" the needs of Canadians, particularly | in the matter of binder twinc. This deâ€" cision had not been made because the article could be manufactured â€" more cheaply in Canada, but becauise _ 0f the refusal of Congress to negotiate . a reciprocity treaty and the prospect that the Dominion Parliament would at its next session largely increase the duties on United States manuâ€" factures. goods under false pretences from anâ€" other Englishmen has been sentenced to banishment by the Recorder, of London, The sentence of the court was that the prisoner should be conâ€" veyed to Liverpool and thence shippâ€" ed to the Young Men‘s Christian As sociation in Montreal. i ‘This anathema pronounced by the court was evidently expected to frighten other wicked Londoners into the paths of rectitude. The unforiuâ€" nate individual who is now fuldlling the sentence of the court under the ban of his native land, is on the ocean enroute to Montreal. It is the duty of the Dominion auâ€" thor,ties on the prisoner‘s arrival, to ship him straight back to where he came from, charging all costs to the Recorder of Londoh. It is about time that English magistrates as well as ither Englishmen, are made aware that Canada is not a modern Van Diemen‘s Land, containing a penal settlement for the reception of offâ€" scourings and â€" criminal riffâ€"raff from that or any other.country. Canada is the granary of the enâ€" pire, and has proved her loyalty by sending soldiers of her own raising to do valiant service for the British Crown, and the dumping: of criminals under the name of English law _ on Dominion shores is an exhibition _ o‘ impudence that will be resented by every true Canadian. lf British loyâ€" alty and Interâ€"Imperial friendship is to continug and grow in Canada, this soft ob affront will have to stop. Does England expect us to send them our best men toâ€"serve in the armies of the empire and they return the gilt with the offal of their criminal docks? The lact is that it the empire were not a broader terir. than England the growth of loyalty in Canada would never have reached its present . pro portions. We do not contend _ that the action of one sgnorant magistrate speaks for all England, but we d« say that the freq«ency of this course of conduct by these ignorant and in solent magistrates deserves officia‘ rebuke. If a Canadian magistratc were to introduce such a campaign against the peace and order of _ th« British Isles, he would have his comâ€" mission cancelled at once by the govâ€" ernment, under whose authority D: held office. g Several large manufacturing conâ€" cerns in the United States, being conâ€" vinced that there is no ‘hope for recâ€" fprocity, are reported to be making arrangements for building factories in the Dominion. ‘The Boston Heraid says that the There has been for years past a large marxket in Canada for _ btindet twines, the sales amounting in value from a million and a quarter to @a million and three quarter dollars anâ€" nually. Under the Canadian tarift a large part of these commodities were admitted free, but United States manufacturers expect that in the maximum and minimum tariffis that Mr. Ficlding will propose in the next session of the Dominion Parliament provision will be made for the ; imâ€" posing of a duty upon United States bindér twine. Another big concern which is about to establish a factory in Canada is the International Harvester Co!‘ The enormous agricultural expansion of the Canadian west offers a spiendid market for agricultural machinery, which cannot be sypplied from _ the Ubited States because of the duties. The Herald deplores this transfer of industries, which is so much lost to the working.men of the Republic and tho general business promoted _ by thein imploymcnt. Chicago, Oct. 24.â€"Newspapers have been ranked as a text book at Northâ€" Western University, â€" and _ hereafter students in the American history class of Prol. J. A. James must come to the recitation rooms preparâ€" ed to answer questions on the news of the day. STUDENTS MUST In the course of his lectures Prof. James referred to an article which appeared in a morning paper yesterâ€" day. â€" Upon questioning one of the members â€"of â€"theâ€"class, ho tound ~that the student was not prepared to dis cuss news, and an examination of the class showed that but two of the members had read a motuing paper. "This will never do," said the Proâ€" fessor. ‘"Hereaiter 1 shalt expect you to have an accurate knowledge of curâ€" rent events as chronicled each day in the newspapers, and 1 shall consider it fully as important as the daily lesâ€" sons assigned from the text books." Mr. Andrew Carnegic, the distinâ€" guished philanthropist, has ordered a special library edition of 500 copies of the fortthcoming volume of Mr. Wilfred Campbell‘s .verse to present to his libraries throughout the Engâ€" lishâ€"speaking world. The edition is to be called the "Carnegic Edition," and cach volume will have the inâ€" scription, â€" ‘‘Presented _ by _ Andrew Carnegic.‘‘. This is a high compliment to out distinguished Canadian poct, the qualities of whose genius the critâ€" les and readers of two continents have recognized.

Much, of course, depends upon the locality. In southern secâ€" tions, where no winter protection of vines and bushes is nceeded, the pranâ€" ing may be left till some conyemeut timeâ€"during the carly spring, but iw northern sections, where grape yings and berry Bushes Rave to be laid down in the fall and covered, with earth or other covering before wincer sets in, it is advisable to do the pruning before such covering; is necesâ€" Currant and gooseberry bushes are so hardy . that they need n winter protection, even in the north, and they leaf out so carly in the spring that it is well to have Uhem pruned in the fall. It is best to grow thein in the bush form, allowir g about six canes to the bush,. And as the best fruit is borne on wood mot more than three years old, it is wril to adopt a rencwal system of pruning, whereby oneâ€"third of the bush is renewed each year. This can be done by cutting out two of the oldert canes cach year, and allowing twi of the new canes to take their places. in this way lat whole bush is remewed in three years. The ends of the mew growth shoald be shortenced cnowgie to keep the bush symmetrical. Raspberrics asd Blucktberries | have perennial roots ®ut biennial canes; that is, the ro0ts Jive through a number of years, but the canes dic alter fruiting at ihe end of the seeâ€" ond season. Some kinds Mave more of less of an annual fruiting habit; that is, they bear fruit and d ie in one scason. With such bushas, then, thr annvual pruning consists im e utting out all the canes which bave by, irne fruit. 64â€"Angeli Quintiert _ ...... ...... Itaiy........Inherit@d ... ... .. 65â€"W. H.

The purpose of this federation is sound, inasmuch as there is no ¢fâ€" fort to te put forth to formulate some common creed or catalogue of theological dogmas that may be acâ€" eeptable to every denomination, but rather to make, common Caust in studying and < ‘ving common practiâ€" al problems. Men who disagree _ on doctrinal points of religion would make common cause in assisting each other to rescue a drowning man Of putting out a fire. So churches which will dispute and become inâ€" volved in endless controversy regard ing cerlain soâ€"called essential â€"doe trines, can work together in attackâ€" ing . an evil, or establishing a _ reâ€" form.

Interesting Lecture by Editor A M. Simmons, of Chicago, in the Concordia Hall on Monday Oct. 24th. it is wiclding wide influence, and its growth in the United States is litâ€" tle short of phenomenal. said, its veryâ€"rapidity and universaâ€" lity of growth demand this. In Australia and Germany the Socâ€" ialistic party is a most powerful fac, tor; in fact, in all European nations Mr. Simons is an exceedingly able, forcible and attractive speaker; inâ€" deed, we would say, without fear of contradiction, he is one of the pest speakers ever heard in Berlin. Those who beard him, while they might not agree with his posttion on all 6ccasâ€" ions, must concede that he presented his case in a clear, reasonabte, lair way. Those who went to his lecture expecting to bear a . sarcastic, vinâ€" dictive, screeching tirade against soâ€" clety as it exists, were much deceivâ€" ‘ed. Mr. Simons‘ treatment of . the matter, while as was to be expected, ‘severe at times, was perfectly fairâ€" }minded and logical, He premised his remarks by saying that Socialism was not a dream of idea of Utopia, but an attempt tc understand the cutrent and trend o% the movements of hjstory, ang (tc share our civilization and instituâ€" tions in wise andâ€" advantageous rela tion to them. No thinking person could do other than realize that there is something serfously amiss in our social and economic conditions. This might not be so evident in Berâ€" lin, in things as they are here,. but a study of the countries of Europe ani of the larger centres of industry i our own countries would soon es tablish it. Very clearly and logicalâ€" ly. he followed the current of indus trial evolution from the simple primâ€" itive one, where each person ownet his own tools and made for his own provision, up through the stages â€" o# competitive development, with . its fast increasing accompaniments of imâ€" proved tools, which meant faster work and fewer hands, its naturai enriching of the owner of these tools at the expense of the mere workmen, who had only his labotr to sell, ang its final outcome in the concentration of weaith and the tools of production and distribution in the hands of the few rich, as seen toâ€"day in the im mense combines and trusts, the conâ€" trolling interest in which is in the hands of a‘very few capitalists. Po litical parties had claimed and tried to stem the tide of the power ol these trusts, but only to be met with most impotent failure, as was to be scen in the fact that while in 1896 there were in the United States three bil.ions of dollars in control of the trusts, this had increased in 1905, a reriod of only cight years, to twentyâ€" six billions. How long, the speaker asked, would it be at this rate beâ€" fore one man practically owned tae industrial resources of the country ? In the old days it used to be a matâ€" ter of making. to use; it was now (a matter of making to sell. This naturâ€" ally meant the survival 0%> the cheapâ€" tst, with its incvitable exploitation of labor and. the untold and insufferâ€" able miscries this entailed. The sbcâ€" ialist movement was quite in accord with the trades union movement as a proper and wise means of selfâ€"deâ€" fence. All it had against it was that it did not go far enough. It â€"was like matching pennies against the capâ€" italists‘ dollars. As long as there was incquality in the financial ability to make fight, which inequality was always on the flavorable side of capital, so long must the union movement prove fuâ€" ti‘e, and the workingmen‘s condition remain unimproved, and, indced, more andâ€" more intolâ€"rable. This was only 1 natural law of evolution. The Socâ€" ialist remedy was in the ballot, where vote offset vote, where the mitfionâ€" aire‘s â€"power was equalled by the laâ€" :orer‘s, and where the worling peoâ€" ple,.so vastly in the majority, â€" could count. F He asked . his hearers to consider this question sefl‘&!llsly and give . an answer to it of ich they nceed not be ashamed, and with which succeedâ€" ing gencrations could not refroach them. CAN THIS On November 9th a byâ€"law will be submitted to the clectors of Galt to taise $12,000 in aid of the St. George Wagon works Company, which . proâ€" poses to locate in that town. Can a loan for any such purpose Le Coated? It would seem that the granting of the loan is in direct contravention of the bonusing clause of the Municipal Act, by which a municipality is forâ€" bidden to assist in any way an inâ€" dustry already established in another municipality. At the last session of the Legislative Assembly a couple of private bills designed to get over this provision were unceremoniously . reâ€" jected, and it is not likely other apâ€" plications of a similar acter would meet with any LOA] N BE FLOATED * It is now an established fact that the production of energy at from forâ€" ty to sixty dollars a horse power is a thing of the past in this country. The immense waterialls of the counâ€" try, which are being converted into energy through the instrumentality of turbine wheels, signifies cheap power. 1t has been demonstrated by practical illustration that the power thus generated can be transmitted through an electric current for hundâ€" reds of miles with limited per cent. of loss through transmission. The reâ€" duction in the cost of power by this means‘is so great that the attention of extensive users of power has been attraeted, and _ already prodigious plants have been installed at Niagara and other points. It is expected that in a short time the street car serâ€" vice of Toronto will be run by power from : Niagara. Of course Buflalo street cars bave been running _ for years by this means. The idea, howâ€" ever, of getting Niagara power to the Twinâ€"City has been practically abanâ€" doned. The best calculation of the cost of Niagara power delivered heve was never less than filteen dollars per horse power a year, and the cost would likely be nearer twenty dolâ€" lars. The introduction of producer gas as a means through which energy may be obtained, is so much cheaper than the best calculation regarding Niagara power, that it puts the latâ€" ter entirely out of the question. A producer gas plant properly installed with a suitable engine will produce energy at from seven to ten dollars per _horse pFowerâ€"a â€"year. Thusâ€"we find that while Niagara power prÂ¥ fesses to be able to cut the cost oi steam power in two, that producer gas can again reduce the cost of powâ€" er by oneâ€"half as compared with Niâ€" agara power. _ Further, a producer gas plant is exceedingly simple, 1¢â€" quiring no electrical engineers or exâ€" perts to run it, as any ordinarily inâ€" telligent individual can be taught to run it in a short time. There are, however, erroneous ideas in existence regarding producer gas. Some supâ€" pose that this gas is valuable for lighting and heating purposes. This is, however, not the case. Producer gas is only valuable for power purâ€" poses, for while ordinary gas . conâ€" tains from fout hundred to six hunâ€" dred British thermal units of heat natural gas often has a thousand thermal units, producer gas ‘contains only about one hundred and forty British thermal units of heat. Thus we find that although its explosive properties are excellent, its heating propertios are deficient. For practiâ€" cal use by a light and. power comâ€" pany or commission, producer gas is only useful for the production _ of (Montreal Witness.) Are sugar beets "vegetables in their natural state," or only "crude vegeâ€" able substances," or, ‘"unenumerated unmanufactured articles‘"? _ Such is the knotty problem which the Treasâ€" ury officials at Washington have been requested to solve. People unversed in the intricacies of the United Staâ€" tes tariff may think it no. problem at all and resort to a syllogism to prove their case. All roots that grow in the earth are vegetables, the sugar ‘beet is a root that grows in the earth ergo, the sugar beet is a vegetable. But facts, logic and common sense do not count, it seems, when the tariff is to be construed by manufacturers, for whose benefit it was originally deâ€" vised. ‘The question has been raised by the Marine City Sugar Company of Michigan, whose manager is reâ€" ported in the despatches as saying that the farmers of that state will not raise sugar beets, while the farâ€" mers of Canada will, and the comâ€" pany must import its raw material. But the duty of twentyâ€"five percent is too high and cither one of _ two things must be done, or the factory must be removed across the river. If the beets cannot come,to the factory the factory must go to the bects. kiâ€" ther the tariff will have to be revised in the direction of lowering, or, betâ€" ter, will have to be abolished altsâ€" gether, or the designation of the beets must be changed. . Asâ€" "crude vegetable substances‘‘ beets are enâ€" titled to admission free of duty;~ as ‘"unenumerated unmanufactured . arâ€" ticles‘ they would have to pay itn per cent ad valorem duty. The comâ€" pany is willing to compromise on the latter. This is where the conscience and intelligence of the Board of Apâ€" praisers of the Treasury at Washingâ€" ton have been put to the test. The deâ€" cision is awaited with anxiety by the company and with curiosity by the public. But the question bas a wider bearing. When Cuba was secking reâ€" ciprocity, the beet sugar manulacturâ€" ers contended that it would ruin their industry and inflict irreparable . inâ€" jury on the farmers who supplied |their raw material. _ Now they sre | lamoring for a reduction of duty on a product which competes â€"directly with the farmers‘ crop.

TRADE RELATIONS WITH AUSTRALIA, There was a representative attendâ€" ance of manufacturers from Berlin, Preston and Elmira at the meeting held under the auspices of the Board of Trade and Madeâ€"inâ€"Berlin Exhibiâ€" tion on Friday afternoon, when _ Mr. J. 8. Larke, Canadian Trade Comâ€" missioner to Australia, delivered an }ufim on the question of trade beâ€" Practical Address to Business Men by Mr. J: Clarke, Can tween the two countries. It was an admirable address and showed conâ€" clusively that Mr. Larke had studied the situation and was particularly well informed. _ He urged coâ€"operaâ€" tion amongst the Canadian manufacâ€" turers, the establishment of better transportation facilitics, and the csâ€" tablishment of branch concerns in Australia, and lastly, but not the least, preferential trade between the two countries. . Mr. Larke‘s address of over an hour‘s duration was listenâ€" ed to most attentively and with a great deal of jnterest. At the concluâ€" sion a resolution of thanks was tenâ€" President C. H. Mills presided, and among those present were Messrs. W, H. Otto, President; A. Werner, secreâ€" tary; A. J. Kimmel, De Ratz, ~R. Schlender, Geo. Ruppel, F. Meyer. M. L. Weber, J. S.

Larke visit Berlin and the county at this time when he had anexcellent opportunity to see the industrial greatness of this town at the Madeâ€"inâ€"Berlin Exhibiâ€" tion. The county is undoubtedly one of the best manufacturing centres in the Dominion and the meeting was held for the purpose of learning how ttnde could be extended to farâ€"oft Australia. London, Ont., Oct. 24.â€"The Ontario Sunday _ School _ Association _ begange their â€"fortieth â€"annuat convention here _ toâ€"day,the day sessions being held in the First Presbyterian Church â€" and the evening meeting in the First Meâ€" thodist Church. ‘The school room contains an interâ€" csting department, ‘comprising arâ€" ticles brought from the Holy Land, including frankinscense, apples of Sodom, cassia, myrrh, lentils, safiâ€" ron, manna, gallâ€"nuts, ruc, pulse, juniper seed and husks, the latter beâ€" ing the food fed toâ€"swine and menâ€" tioned in the story of ‘"The Prodigal WORK OF THE SUNDAY SCHOOL. Up to a late hour toâ€"night 257 delâ€" egates had registered, and many othâ€" ers are understood to be waiting to take advantage of the holiday rates toâ€"morrow. The first night meeting of the convention was held in the First Methodist Church, with a large attendance. The President, Rev. L. H. Wagner, of Berlin, occupied the " chair, and Rev. W. J. Clark, of the First Presbyterian Church, conducted the opéning exercises. Mayor Campâ€" bell was present, and welcomed the delegates in a lengthy speech, during which he dwelt on the importance of Sunday school work in supplying moral and religious teaching to supâ€" plement a defect of the national sysâ€" tem of education,. ‘"I have never been an Advocate of bringing religion into State schools," he said, ‘"but someâ€" times I wonder which would be the lesser ol two evils. . Whilé we may have no sympathy with the dogmas of Rome, we must admit truth of unâ€" derlying principle of the Catholic edâ€" ucational system, that an education from which the moral and spiritual is eliminated is an emasculated eduâ€" cation." i $ Rev. Mr. Wagner replied in suitable terms to the welcome, and intimated that a resolution would be submitted to the Legislature from the present convention asking that the interna~ tional lessons be authorized for readâ€" ing in public schools. or the present convention, the prosi« dent drew attention to one dominant note running throughout. It would be observed that the principal theme of the convention was childhood, and the Ikeynote might be said to be * The Â¥Children for Christ." In his address at the opening sesâ€" sion, Rev. L. H. Wagner, President, of Berlin, referred briefly to the work of the past year. The changes affectâ€" ing the secretaries to their relationâ€" ship had proved satisfactory. The general secretary had been enabled to )devou more time to office work. The details of finance had been under his supervision, and, although much had been done, there was need of better support. In speaking of the program ‘The presentation of reports by deleâ€" gates from the different city and county associations® followed. About thirty delegates presented reports, which were very encouraging. _ ‘"How to study the bible with a view of teaching," was the subject taken up by Rev. A. E.
