IN MEMORIAM Dr. Ansrus Egi has returned to his home at Markdale after his recent Taxation in the province of Unt- ario is noy,. synonymous with cotu>- fiscation. One miKht think that all sources of su|)))ly for the taxing body at Toronto had Ijeen thoroughly can- vassed and utilized but not so. There jji'i' many ways yet in which the pub- lic can be forced to hand over ita hard earned pennies;. In fact of ways, like books there is no end. We might mention a few: For in- stance, we hiiii'v an amusement tax, and this might be extended to inclu- de a lot of thing, such as fishing, <there might be a praiseworthy tax on fish worms) shooting ground hogs a gun tux, fish rod tax, a tax on all lumber wagons, which help to destroy our goo<i roads; babies-go-carts, car- riages a!id <hc like. The marriage hcense has of recent years been raised to five doUa-s. Why not raise a revenue from other branches of the industry. In fact the possibilities are so num- «rous that we hesitate to offer more, fearing that we might be called on by the taxation managers as a special- ist to help them out in their stren- uous search for ways and means. In such an. event our first suggestion would be that every member of the legislature be taxed $600â€" the exact amount that they grabbed from the public chest at last session. We would cut out the gas tax and place it on the "gas" so generously out- poured in the legislature. Every man who speaks more thavi half nn hour should have to pay y "gas" tax of ten cents for every five minutes over the time limit. others in a couple of weeks.

AND THE WAVES ROSE A peculiar phenomenon occured on the great lakes one day last week. Nvhen a tidal wave rushed into the the Georgian Uav. The water in Owen .Sound luirV)or I'ose six feet. Our first soluHon was that the Chi/c- •ngo drainaf'c canal hsd shut down its works in order to make repairs, and caused a back \y»«h. This theory 1.1 exploded, however, a.s w«> notice that a similar phenomenon occured in Lake Ontario. Still it might also cause it there, although we have not' heard ff any extra volume of wnto'- passintr over the Niagara Falls.
