A 12-year old lad of this towt» wrote to Priemier Ross recently informing him that if lie did not do sotnething along temperance linos he would lose a lot of good Reform votes in this vicinity The premier replied very courteously to the youngster, informing him that he had been acting along the line suggested and before the session of Legislature was over he thought his correspondent would be convinced that his (Ross) policy would be the best for the country. But the a<>eur anco of a 12-year-old youngster tackling Ross would, as the girls say, "jar" you. And yet that is the kind of young man- hood we need to develop in this country.

A gent'.eir.an who is somewhat acquaint- ed with hydraulics, points oat that our ren-.arks lost week on the waterpower at Eugenia were slightly misleading. He says it would be possible to till an eight, or even a fifteen-foot pipe with the quantity of water given, inasmuch as the water in the pipe would not be swiftly running water. It would bo held in check OS it would be in a dam or cistern and the force would be exertsd through a small vent in the lower end of the pipe, with 280-foot pressure in the pipe behind it. As an illustration inks a barrel of water, bore a hole in the bottom, and the water as it pours out will eierb ije:ivy force, but it would tako a considerable time to empty the barrel, and if as much water ran in as was allowed to rnn out the barrel would always remain full. Thi* puts a diifureut facu on the' plan to the ordinary observer unncquaiiited wioh hydraulic power. We have been shown the original eftimates of two civil rngin- eers, who both arrive at practically the same uonclusiousâ€" making the force at Eugenia between four and five thousand horsepoiver at all seasons, althou<{h they differ sliiihtly itl;th«irniensurcment of the water.
