LINDSAY, FRIDAY. A OBSERVED BELUKE Kinzston Standarn Conserva- tive, administers this rebuke to the rapid anti-reciprocity juirnals. which .2 9 have; been abus;nz Bishop Mills because he was manly enough in expose hy- :mcr..<y in the. disloyalty cry which has been their of the agitation since the beginning fora removal of tariff restrictions. ‘1! is an interesting question just how far achurchman like Bishop Mills car: or should go in discussing an is- 31.:- lixe reciprocity. But since both sides say it is nota political issue, and since the Bishop took no ground what ever for or against it. but urg- ed only that it be considered from the broad standpoint of citizenship we fail to see why any newspaper should wax hysterical over it. If 3 Bishop or aCbnrchman is debarred from Coun- seling good citizenship merely because the citizenship is to be applied to a live issue we fail to see of what beneâ€" fit teaching along those lines can ev- er be. 1.! religion is be of any force or effect it must deal with the problems and with the people of to- day- The musty past is forever burâ€" fed. to THE. POWER PROPOSITION The gentleman who supplies the articles to the Warder on the power proposition evidently labors under ‘ the impresm‘on that a DOIle of ridâ€" icule in dealing thh the state- ments made by those opposed to the bylaw will win supporters. In this he pays a poor compliment to the intelligence of the citizens. Sure 2y the question can be discussed on its merits. It is a big question, and its Sapporters should surely be big enough to discuss it with a. view to giving the citizens the in- formation they haVe failed to get to date. A meeting of the most energetic supporters of the bylaw was held last evening, and a vigorous cam- paign on behalf of the measure "will ’2: undertaken. This, of course, twill be in the nature of an edu- cational migu, and those who undertake it will have an exceeding fly difficult task to convinca the people that the proposition, 15 all that it is {chimed to be. They ' “'15 “V“v'e an opportunity of guaging H’melic sentiment, which, they will find is strongly in opposition to the purchase of the local plant. ‘ There has been too much worship 'ping at the Hydro Electric shrine. Hon. Adam Beck has been placed on a pedestal as an electrif. god, and the lesser satellites of the Com- mission haVe been looked upon as infallible in their pronouncements. The public ownership idea, which is satisfactory is soma instanCes, has been worked to death, in connect- ion with the local proposition while the majority of the citizens have " not been convinced that the power capacity at Fenelon Fal's, is gen- me or that the citizens will get full Value for the $300,000 proposed to be expended for the purchase and renewal of the local plant. The articles in the Warder have not been convincing. They may Sat- isfy a few, but the majority of the citizens look upon the dmfavor. Then again, there is a feeling that. the bylaw is bylaw with whole stock.in-trade cut to all. PRINCIPAL McKENZIE considered seriously.

It Is by no moans uncommon In In- dia for the children of a mahout to be cared for by the mahout's elephant. The whole family of the mahout be come. as It were. parasites to the ele- phant by which they earn then- living. Instances are not wanting of a moth- er’s systematic placing of her baby In an elephant’s care and within reach of Its trunk while the mother goes to fetch water or to get wood or mate- rials to cook the family meal. No Jackal or wolf would be likely to pick up and carry off a baby who was thus confided to the care of an ele~ pliant. but most people who have lived In the Jungles know how very possible It Is for a Jackal or a wolf to carry off a baby when It a lying In a but or when the mother 13 unprovlded with means to fight off the marauder. Children thus brought up In the com- panionship of an elephant become ridiculously familiar with the big pachyderm and take all klnd of liber- ties with himâ€"liberties which the ele- phant seems to endure on the principle that It does not hurt him. while It amusa the child. One may see a lit- tle nadvo child. quite naked. about two feet high. standing on an ele- phant's bare back and taking It down to the water to bathe. vociferatlng all the time In most unbecoming terms of native abusive language. 01: arriving at the water the elephant. ostensibly In obedience to the child‘s command. lies down and enjoys himself. leaving Just a portion of his body. like a small Island. above the water. Upon this part of the elephant the child will stand and shout. shouting all the more if he has several companions of his own age also In charge of elephants. all wallowing In the water around him. If the child should slip off his Island the elephant’s trunk promptly replaces him in safety.

Attack on the Root amendment was reciprocity measu ran throughout the afternoon. and which resulted in the defeat of Senator Root's proposal to change the House bill by requiring that all Canadian provinces should remove their export restrictions on pulp wood and its proâ€" ducts before the reciprocal features applied to the woodpulp and print paper items of the agreement. "I am opposed to this Socalled re- ciprocity legislation as a whole, be- cause I believe it is wrong, harmful and unjustifiable," said Senator La- follette. “If it must pass, I want to see it made as nearly perfect as pos- sible. I shall vote against the Root amendment because I believe it will defeat the very purpose of the wood pulp and print paper paragraph of the agreement.” Senator Lafollette declared there was no justification for any duty on print paper. He analyzed the figures of the tariff board to show that the best mills in the United States actual~ ly produce paper cheaper than the best mills in Canada. To continue a high tariff on paper, he said, was to put a premium on “inefficiency and sloth,” and to make the protective tariff “deaden all constructive force" for the development of efficient man- agement. Senator Lafollctte criticized the newspapers for having urged the reci- procity measure as a means of get- ting relief from the oppressive charges of the print paper manufacturers. He said they had Joined with the “pack- ers, the railroads, the flour millers” and others who would secure advan- tages through the passage of the reci- procity bill. . Senator Lafollette declared that in the testimony taken by the finance committee it would be shown that the newspapers had suppressed the news of the reciprocity proceedings, but on this point Senator Stone, who also is a member of the finance com- mittee, declared the Wisconsin Sena. tor was mistaken.
