Wilson and Wall Street elay lands in older Ontario. _ Their summary of the value of the land in the beit is: 21 per cent. excellent, well draind, with healthy growth of mixâ€" ed wood adaptable to casy clearing; Wpodrow Wilson has heen _ Presiâ€" dent of the United States long enough to show timt he has the courage of his canvictions, and that he will perâ€" it no man, or combination of men, to stand in tkeir way when it comes to the carrying out of his amteâ€"elecâ€" tion pledges. In this respect _ he stands forti in marked contrast to @xâ€"President Taft, who, like Wilson, stood pledged to a certain lMne _ of action in tarif matters, but _ who, unlike Wilson, permifted certain inâ€" terested partics, to deflect his course and thus present him before the peoâ€" ple as a weakâ€"kneed politician â€" and m pledgeâ€"breaker. ~ Alter Wilson‘s clection an attempt was made by the big interests opposâ€" ed to tarif revision to discredit his policy in advance, by tightening _ up the moneyâ€"bags, and threatening ioss of employment. _ But Mr. _ Wilson Anstead of weakening, has checkmated his tormenters by announcing that the Government oi the United States has $500,000,000 to loan to country banks, and _ to thus beat the _ Wall street banks. As a result there has bren no panic and no loss of. confidence because tariff revision is coming, and there will be none. The people of the United States have been fooled time and again by the cry oi "‘Wolf!â€" Woi{!" when tliere was no wolt. _ and _ Mr. ‘The report of the officials of the Dominion Department of Agrtculture, who have investigated the land aiong the National Transcontinental | Railâ€" way from Cochrane west, is that the clay belt in Northern Ontario is as good for agricultural purposes as the 26 per cent. fair, a thicker peat suzâ€" timber, but having a surface coverâ€" ing of peat that must be burned of, 26 per cent. faiz, a thicker peat surâ€" face, sometimes up to °18 _ inches thick, making clearing of the clay soil a Ieavier task; 24 per cent. mostly unsuitable. The clay belt is roughly estimated at 16,000,000 â€" acres, so that if the percentage of excellent _ or good land over the whole of tifis arca 4s the same as over the arca contipâ€" wous to the ‘Transcontinental, . there will be about 10,000,000 acres highly desirable for settlement. It should be remembered that _ it was surveving partics of an Onlario Liberal Government that first | dis covered this clay belt, and that Sir James Whitney, now Premier of Onâ€" tario, once spolie of that regfon _ as ®‘the land of the stunted poplar.‘ PILES CURED at HOME by New Absorption Method. â€" If you suficr from bliceding, Etching, blind or protruding Piles, send me your address, and & will tell you guw to cure yourâ€" welf at home by the absorption #reatment ; and will also send some of this home treatment Â¥ree for trial, with references from your own locality if reâ€" quested.

It must be remembered that not a few prominent _ British shipbuilders expressed a readiness to establish yards here if it were decidâ€" ed to build a Canadian navy. The csâ€" tablishment of such vards would be a big thing for Canada, for not â€" only would the shipbuilding _ trade mcet with a boom, but allied _ industries would also profit. ;build such vessels there would not be cnough work to keep them open when maval vessels are mt _ being built. It would be a long time, however, before Canada completed ler _ navy, ind the danger of wantâ€" of _ work would not be very pressing for many years. However, the Victoria â€" Daily Colonist, in discussing the establish memt of shipyards on â€" the Pacific Coast, enumerates a long _ list _ of vessels that would likely _ be _ built there were such _ yards opened. It summarizes them as Tollows: The Canadian iPacific Railway Comâ€" panyâ€"One vessol yearly, costing on an average $500,000.
