Conditions in Canada are in a prosperous state, judging from the Statement made by Mr. W. J. Gal- braith who arrived in Kingston from ii | Belfast, Ireland, on Wednesday. Mr. i| Galbraith came over on the || ship Doric; and on that boat he said s{eam- il | there were in the neighborhood of 550 people of the working class com- | ing from Ireland to Canada. Quite | on their way to Canada to join the & pumber were women and children husbands and fathers who had gone ahead, and who had found con- ditions favorable enough to allow them founding a home and send- ing back money to bring out their families. Mr. Galbraith visited in Canada five years ago and on this trip finds himself. more and more impressed. ll| The beauty of the Canadian autumn is something, the like of which, Mr. Galbraith has never before exper- fericed. Another feature of this coun- try which the visitor remarked was the gigantic size of the railway en- li| gines. The trip from Montreal to Kingston was made over the C. N. R. behind one of the new type engines which were recently built at the ll! Kingston Locomotive Works and Mr. ll Galbraith has nothing but praise for ii the Canadian railroads.

The main topic under discussion was the report of the boundary. commission which was expected to be announced very soon. Free State ministers seem- ed to be fairly certain that territory now in northern Ireland would be transferred to their government, while many Unionists in Ulster were disposed to believe that the town of Newry might pass to the Free State but that part of Donegal would be added to Ulster territory. The Free State had -placed a tax of 33 1-3 per cent against certain imports from Northern Ireland, Eng- land and other countries, he Said, but the Free State Government had met with deficits, while in Northern ll ireland, without a tariff, the Gov- USE OUR TEA | We carry 'only the | il and ernment declared a surplus. Mr. Galbraith mentioned a num- ber of the social and educational re- forms that have been enacted in Northern Ireland under Sir James Craig's Government and he feels that conditions are steadily improv. ing. A bill has been passed restrict- ing the hours for the sale of liquors on week days and the closing of the public houses in Belfast on Sundays which the traveller from Ireland says are having good effects in the lessening of the number of police court cases. There is a strong senti- ment against any further restrictions to the liquor trade, however, as it interferes rin the revenue derived by the gove ent.

At the same time however an opti- li mistic. spirit prevails, and Mr. Gal- MATCHES | braith sald that in some trades the people were more prosperous than at i! any other time in the nation's 'his- i] tory. | IN MARINE CRCLES Clearances on Wednesday--0'- Hagan, east at 9.30 a.m.; Gehm, east at 10.30. a.m.; Wililam C.
