The Housé of Commons has ap- proved a proposal to grant 120 acres of land in the west to each Canadian soldier who served in the war in South Africa, Thete are seven thou sand men who will be entitled to this grant, thus making the total allot- ment nearly two and one-quarter mil- lion aeres. It is more than probable, ector. | too, that the number of participants will be increased. Already it is pro- posed to add chaplains, nurses, and newspaper correspoydents, who served in the South African war 'and some propose that Fenian raid vete- rans be included as well. 1f .those to whom the land is to be granted were at all likely to settle down as prairie farmers there would not perhaps be any serious objection to the proposal, says the Toronto Star. The west wants settlers and those who served on the veldt might be expected to take with them to the new provinces the Canadian spirit and to assist in motlding newcomers from: other lands to the Canadian ideal. But there is no likelihood of any con- siderable number of these veterans be- coming farmers. Most of them are city or town men and. the desire to roam and seek adventure, which was one of the motives prompting their. enlistment for the war, is not one that fits in well with life on a west- ern farm. Moreover, we have had. some ex- perience in land grants already. The Ontario. government gave farms in New Ontario "to all those who*enlist- ed from this province, but, after an immerse number of protests had come in from the territory in which the grants were made against locatihns being held by men who had no inten- tion of improving the same, a large proportion of these were bought back again by the government. The domin- ion venture is scarcely likely to give better results than that managed by the province. Ii the veterans have any just claim which has not yet been discharged, it would be better to in cash. Western lands should be open to all on : the same terms and these terms should include the . requirement of immedifte personal occupation and improvement. against the government, pay it Maina t-- -- HDITORIAL NOTES.

It appears that Friedberg cannot be extradited for the offences of deception ann- fraud which are charged 'against him, but various journals publish' the report that t banker has agreed to return to 'Wer- lin and assist in the investigation of {his tangled affairs . under guarantee {made by the prosecution that he will not be detained against his will.

Montreal Gazette. i Port Arthur has the réputation of being the leading - producer of muni- cipal ownership "in Canada. It has, or rather had, a Jrianicipal street rail- way, a municipal electric fight plant, 4 a 'municipal power plant and a muni- ripal telephone plant. It has the re mains of some of these to-day, for it will be remembered that the municipal dani broke away, a few weeks: ago, wiped 'out three lives, did a large amount of damage to property and temporarily at least stranded three of the mumicipal enterprises referred, to above. Just now the people are en- deavoring to figure out ,how they stand and whether it will pay them to go ahead and spend.a few hundred thousands more in dams "mecessor- ies. For purposes of comparison they have the neighboring municipality «of Fort. William. Fort William. some time ago, came to the conclusion that there are some things it is cheaper tc buy than to produce municipally. To this end it made a contract with a Jocal power plant for a supply of electricity. + To-day, while Port Ar- thur . yearns for' electric power, Fort William has it in abundance, and is utilizing: its possession te attract manufacturers. Every natural ad- vantage Fort William has is likewise enjoyed by Port Arthur, but Fort Wil< liam has been getting the industries because it had power to- deliver. while Port Arthur had nothing but expecta- tions. The Port Arthur News sums up the experience in this way: "En- ough of Current river, of huge expen- ditures, of broken dams and promises, and of bad management." Its advice is to humble civic pride, follow in. the like results. Tt will hardly be able to do so as well, for it has the cost of that broken dam to shoulder, the interest charges on a broken dam be- ing, unfortunately, exactly as high as thev are upon a sound one. Still it is better to pay for one broken dam than to run the risk of paying for two, and to further lengthen the re- cord of incaracitv of the last few veéars which the News sums up as showing that in municipal ownershis Port Arthur as a develoner of power ranks as an amateur. "We have blun dered along," it says, "umtil to-da: we have left as fruit of our efforts a totally disabled plant and a heap of pm re ere POSSE AFTER A TRAMP Who Assaulted An Arthur Town- ship Woman. " Mount Forest, Julyt 13.--Mrs. Henry Hirper, of Arthur township, was as saulted, this morning, by an unknown tramp.
