Men may be measured as accurately by the enemies they make as by the friends that they have drawn about them. It is always creditable for a man to have enemies in the factiOns that stand for corruption or ty- rannyâ€"no man can take: a vigorous stand for any good cause without stir- ring up the hostility of those who have been profiting by the evils he excoriate And what may be'said of men may be said of a newspaper. Every con- test in the interest ,of the people, every fearless onslaught'upon wrong arrays against a newspaper certain ones who are enjoying privileges, legal or illegal, which they think should not be interfered with. The more successful a newspaper is in arousing public sentiment for the enforcementgof law and discounten- anCe of demoralizing tendencies, the 11101e active are its discomfitcd ene- mies in their endeavms to injure itâ€" the casual reader has no idea of the many obstacles that are thrown 1n the path of a neWSpapcr which seeks cou- scientiously to serve the best interests of a community, and would be aston- ished at the various tactics taken to “pu11isl1”-itfor daring to oppose the evils by which some men would pros- - per. Sometimes an effort is made to cut off subscribe1s, a method that seldom accomplishes any but increased ci1cu- lation; for the public, as a class, are app1eciative of a leadership against danger; sometiines through the adver- tising columns the offended element; think to withd1aw pat1onage and cripple a paper, though in this di1ec- tion the “biting ofi" noses to spite faces’ is too apparent to assure it suc- cess. The very courage that has led- the pape1 into a fight against Wrong insures it a welcome 1n the hemes of a community that no advertiser can dale ignoreâ€"sometimes the public finds out the reason for a firm’s disapproval of an advocate of good, and {then it is many a day before the stigma against that firm can be washed away. AltOgether a newspaper which is t1ying to throw all of its leverage on the side of good must expect to cinake enemiesâ€"in fact, it must welcome the possession of enemies as showing the value of its antagonism to things that are corrupt. ”._..”.L... The French Cavalry. From the Montreal Evening News. France will utilize about 575,000 houses. That nation has the best cav- alry on earthto-day. This is so because she was the first of the Great Powers to see the value of thoroughbred blood in producing remounts, and she has fol- lowed this course for thirty-five years. No price has been too great for herto pay for an English thoroughbred sire of the proven kind who had demonstrated his ability to carry weight over a dis- tance. She paid $187, 500, forthe Eng, lish Derby winner, Flying Fox. Up to 1912, she had paid $2,700,000 for English thoroughbreds, and counted this money well spent. To-day France possesses 3, 000 thoroughbred mares, as against 850 registered' 1n Germany. In fact, she has, practically cornered the long; distance strain in EurOpe, so much so, that French-bred horses are winning most of the classics' in England, the home of the thoroughbred breed. Durbar II, winner of this year ’s Derby, is the last instance. ‘ The French horses are trained to do fieats‘ that make a man hold his breath. As yearlings they are taught to gallop over rough ground. strewn with fallen trees, low fences and all sorts of ob- stacles. As they grow older, they are taught obedience and, by rigid training, are hardened for any sort of .

Perhaps, when the lessons of thie’ great war'are being profited by after it is all over, Canada will pay more atten ' tion to the thoroughbred king of the horse world, whose “get” can safe- guard the interests of the whole nation in time of st1css.
