We want new methods of doing things. .Happily we are never satisfied. Mostly we move in circles, and that it true to a large extent in the matter of taxes. Just now the Union of Municipalities asks for an addition to the income tax jn order to relieve the burden on land. Only a few years ago people wore imbued with the justice of the single tax idea and th$y taxed the land and not the improvements. We keep on trying things and then throwing them off and trying something else. What we seem to forget is that taxes must be paid. If the money does not come out of one pocket it must be extracted from the other. We are continually asking for improvements, for new things and then when we feel the burden of taxation we try to shift u 10 someDouy else. ' ' "' " ' . ORIENTAL AND THE LAND Orientakare having rather a bad time in this country. We want ta.keep them out of the fisheries, out of the lumber "camps, out of the mills, and out of everything in whieh we fear their competition and the latest is to keep them from owning or farming the idim. we nite 10 maxe money out or mem il we get a chance but they must not compete with us. Merchants object to them being in Dusiness ana everybody objects to them for some reason or an other. e have stopped them coming to country and we refuse to give them a vote. If they voted, politicians would fear to say anything against them and they would be pretty well in control of the situation because they could be voted as a bloc. Then they would gei everyming tney ask and a lot more. to FREE HOSPITALS TO ALL There are a great, many people think hosoitals should ho fr all. And there are manv arimments in fnvnr nt it urv,o r,.,i are sick they cannot earn and to also ask them to pay hospitals and doctors means to cripple them financially for years if they are wage earners. The arguments against free hospitals are first that people have no right to be sick and should be penalized for it. The rest of the community should not have to suffer for their sins. The next argument is that if hospitals were free there would be more people sick than there are today because doctors are not infallible and many a man would go to the hospital who today continues working, Another thing is that the mass of the people object to any more taxes than Uy pay at, Present ad any .additional burden means an addition vt0 thifaxesf ' w. ., ,y,v.. j,--,i(.:Mt There was a time when it rwas thought that sickness was a visitation from the Almighty, but today we know that usually it is our own fault if we are not well. We cannot send people to jail for being ill but we can make them pay hospital tees. GRAIN SHIPPING TO BEGIN Grain shipping is about to begin again. Next week should see the arrival of the first grain of the season from the prairies and the first grain ship in port. This will tend to improve conditions here. It will bring money into the city and make things much more lively than they otherwise would be. It is expected that there will be at least twice as much .shipping here this year as last, so we should look forward with cheerfulness to the coming winter GREAT RENWCIAJION -AM t .

In this moment it la. in Biblical phraseology that he expresses bis feelings to his auditive. It may have been, says he, that in ome. great religious celebration we may have seen a man renounce many thing In order that be might be consecrated for a life of service. This Is how Mr. Bennett sees himself now. He feels that he "ha been set aside for a life of service to his country through the Conei-rvatlve party." and furthermore he. only quite recently, had a peculiar dream, which be will now tell them. He dreamed, lying on his bed Ln the watches of the night, that he was here in this great convention hall, thronged with its multitudinous host, and he dreamed O most prophetic dreamt that this mighty throug had Just elected him (It Is really most surprising) leader of the great historic Conservative party of Canada; and be dreamed he had come forward to say something to ''this I vast audience," and tbe words be found in his heart were not his own words: I "they were the words of the Man from P.
