' _ g the thought leaclersâ€"outSide of a few of the press delegates, of course ? Some of the men popularly supposed to be lead- ers of thought couldn’t lead anything without the assistance of a pull. In this connection the following from the Montreal Witness is interesting : “ The journals of Lord Northcliife were the chief sinners in creating the German scare in Great Britain, and one of the richest pieces of burlesque that has ever been seen on the world‘s stage was that gentleman’s reproof of his country- menâ€"sent over from Berlinâ€"for their hysteria. Now it seems the distraction is subsiding, even in halfâ€"pay-oliicer Clubland and among the tariff reformers. Some of the latter indeed are accused of having started the craze of malice pre- pense, and with their tongues in their checks, for the express purpose of scar- ing the country into protection for the benefit of the privileged classes.” .â€"â€"â€"â€"â€"â€"â€"â€"â€"- The 'Dirt Peril. The Home Journal says : “ Considerable fuss has been made over the “ yellow peril.” The danger of unrestricted im- migration into this great country does not lie so much in what the immigrants may be willing to take for a. day’s wage as in allowing them to bring with them the habits of life and thought that are not in keeping with our ideals of our civilization. In all our foreign cities we are encouraging foreigners to establish colonies. in which. they live as they have s ‘ i’ insist wrnimlafiwwmmmminwmmmwnw menswearer ’W‘V‘W mid And the public generally we beg to announce that we have in stockâ€"and more coming to handâ€"- the latest styles in ' 'DRESS GOODS AND SUITING-S IN THE DIFFERENT NEW SHADES and a fine assortment of Wash Goods and White Linens.

We will learn our-lesson, as these crowded, congested settlements breed disease and crime, and will, when we finally awaken, forbid the huddling of 'human beings in tenements like vermin. _It is not too much to ask those who :make this country their home to live ilike civilized. beings,~.and; it 'is-none» too 'soon. to. ask our legislature- and muni- cipal councils to provide machinery to prevent these strangers either falling 'victims to the greed of unscrupulous landlords, or following their old world ways.” The low wages and the huddling in tenements are inseparable. Any attempt .to make these immigrants live like “ civ- ilized beings ” would have to be accom- panied by an increase in their wages, 'and raising their wages would check 'their immigration, if not stop it alto- ;gether, as. one: of the principal reasons. ' they are brought to this country is that jthey work for less pay than otherwise ! more desirable. classes do. IQ 4 i A__, r- AVA » AVAVA AVQJA NAVAYQg-s AVEA A Everything in Hardware.

His capture waseffectcd largely through the use of the- rural telephone system, This furnishes another example of the 'ways in. which rural telephones may prove useful; The advantages of hav- ing a phone in the house are» so many that it is hard to understand why a greater number of farmers do not instal them. City and townsfolk use tele- phones to talk to people only a few isteps away, while some farmers will hitch up and travel? miles to do a little business that might be transactedovcr- ‘the phone in a few minutes.
