The only way to get rid of them entirely Is to cure the Constipation or Indigestion that is causing them, and nothing will do this quicker or more effectively than Dr. Morse' s Indian Root Pills.

There will be a slight in- crense of wages and the strike and lock-out was not due 'to a dispute over earnings, but the cause of the trouble remains, The persons were the occasion of the trouble. 'They were Mr. and Mrs. Riley, of Accrington, and Miss Barry, of Blackburn, weavers, were invited to join the union declined, They were then that after the lapse of a certain time there would be a protest a- gainst them by a discontinuance of work. Tt was not supposed that tho employers would appreciate or expect this proceeding, and great was the surprise when the employers ordered who and warned tylish, and cheap work; nine improved presses.

They had some money, but not sufficient to warrant a prolonged siege, The unions' loss is estimated at £45,000 per week, and the employers' loss will be greater because, for the (time be- ing, their trade has been demoralized. The slight increase in wage may be a mollifier, but it does not com- pensate for the defeat on a question of principle, and under circumstances which must make future attempts for the recovery of the lost ground promising. In Massachusetts the colton mek- ers are on sirike for shorter hours fifty-four per week, without any re duction in pay.

At a recent meeting. of the hoard of control the treasurer presented a statement -of overdrafts or debenture account. In some cases the estimated cost of public works had been under the actual expenditure, and the amount raised under a debenture issue was short accordingly, In many cases the debentures sold at a dis- count, and the amount of this dis- count was charged up as a shortage in the work. It must not be assumed that the sale of debentures at a discount means a poor civic credit, Ottawa's standing in the money market is the very best but apparently it will persist in fs suing debentures whose interest is put FINANCIERS WANT TRAIMING. too low, or below the rate at which money can be borrowed. What is the sense of sending out debentures at say 4.50 per cent., when it cannot be disposed of unless it "yields 4.60, 4.70 or 480? The better plan is to issue a debenture at five per cent., and then there will be a premium, and this premium is entirely due to the flue tuations of the money market, not, as some suppose, to the superior in- telligence exhibited by a finance com- mittee in handling the security. Then there is. the system of selling debentures which run for a longer or shorter period than the work which they represent. The Financial Post has protested against this practice, and for the very best of reasons. But it will go on. For all these reasons it is argued that our civic financiers should be given a special course in investments, that they should be guided by some sound rule, and to the end that 'the exhibit which Of, tawa presents may be avoided. INCREASE OF The Kingston police force is posed of picked men, and the marvel is that the city can retain their ser- com- vices for the salaries which it pays. A young man, a stalwart figure, brawny and bright, equal to active in- tellectual and physical accomplish ments, is paid $40 per month whon he accepts engagement. At the end of each month, for three months, 812 is held back, a total of $36, on account of clothing, for he must have an outfit which costs over $100, and he is allowed but $50 a year on account of it. In two years (his uniform must be Jyenewed in most part. Now after one has served for years he is given an ibcrease of pay, and to the extent of 85 per month After he has served four more he is given another $5 per 'month. There his remuneration stands. There is no further advance. here has been no change in many years, and the cost of living has been going higher all the time. Most of the men are married, two ---------- POLICE PAY. and most of them have families, and any householder or housekeeper knows of the luxury one can provide on $600 per annum. The time has come for abtion, and as the police commissioners appear to have imbibed the spirit of the city council, and offer no advances until they have been asked for, the men are petitioning for an addition to their stipends of $120 a year. It is not a startling increase, $10 a month, - and the Whig hopes granted. The service of the police of- ficer is onerous. The duty he some- times is called upon to perform, in the detection of crime and arrest of crime inals, is dangerous. It requires nerve. It is liable to be attended with ad- venture and mishap, occasionally with injury, and there is no pension fund. Under all these circumstances it is expected, reasonably, that the police commissioners will see their way clear to grant the prayer of the police of- ficers' petition, and with the fevling or Jstarasce that it is supported by pub- ic opinion. : "Just think of it," says a Montreal contemporary, "of the thirty-three Scotch curlers who have landed in Canada, twenty-eight are teetotallers." Losh, man, there's aye something wrang, Nearly 16,000 doctors, regular prac: titioners, and some of them the lead ers in the profession, have signed the pledge. Buf it's a pledge that they insurance act until their demands for higher remuneration have been met.
