v» Brisk selling in the motor world means a grouting demand for rubber for wheel tyres. This led in the time of the rubber boom to a. sharp rise in the price of rubber. It so‘happens that rubber and tea.are two crops that require exactly the same condi- tions of soil and climate. with the result that ever since the. beginning of ithe rubber boom mormandr more tea planters have dropped tea for rubber. The efiect ol the shorter sup- plies of tea is )ust beginning to be felt in the present rise of price. So that is why our tea is dear. If your tea merchant is not raising his price he is giving you poorer; quality for your money. The Cost of your cup of tea is going to raise further, A resolution of sympathy to the family of the late Mr. J. B. Knowl- aon was unanimously adopted by the council last night on motion of Ald.

Town Clerk Bay will prepare a emtable resolution for presentation to the family. The flag is at half mast on the town ball as a‘mark of respecr. to the deceased.

The trans- fer of fifteen milliorx dollars from the great reserve of idle gold held by the Dominion to the banks asa support of greater circulation should obviate the necessity of restricting safe commercial adVances. The Domin- ‘ion Government has taken the stem: necessary to sustain credit and iconfidence. It remains for men in eVery line of enterprise to keep an op- itimistic outlook and continue in anticipatian or a normal volume of bu- lsiness. Confidence is an essential of business. Credit is the main depend- ience of many enterprises. If bankers see evidences of public timidity they protect themselves by reducing credits. This means that all the manufacturers dependent on bank credit must reduce their scale of op- erations, dismiss some of their employees, and practise many discourag- ing economies. Thus the loss of confidence brings hard times without a 'failure or the possibility of any financial calamity. The Government has made‘timely concessionsito the banks and through them to the business community. Confidence and optimiSm are the only other, essentials. There are no grounds for alarm or even timidity, and the practising oi ' needless economies is certain to shrink business, obstruct industry, and cause general depression." With the fall fair season at hand the faking gentry who usually haunt such functions have formed the subject of some consideration. Mr. J. Lockie Wilson, Superintendent of Fall Fairs, has been giving attention to the matter, with a view to having the thing stopped. It is claimed that last year so enormous number .of people were robbed of thousâ€" ands of dollars. Complaint has been laid before the Attorney-General's Department and the suggestion has sheen made that Magistrates who let faairs nfl on suspended sentence should have their commissions tak- en away. The united agricultural societies passed a motion during the year recommending the dismissal of such Magistrates, and where a line has been imposed and had not been collccted the collection should be made from the Magistrate himself. Rev. John Garbutt, pastor of the Cobourg Methodist church, and Pre- sident of the Bay of Qumte Confer- ence, has accepted a unanimous in- vitation from the Official Board of the Simcoe-st. Methodist church, The magnificent demoristrations of loyalty and offers of substantial support on the part of the different colonies of the British Empire have evoked expressions of wonder and admiration on all sides. The splendid unity of the difierent peoples that go to make up the Empire has been demonstrated to a wonderful degree, resembling as it does the filial devotion and afiection of children for their mother. This splendid outburst of patriotism has prompted the Chicago Herald to give ex- pression to the following:-~â€" [; In times of peace everybody feels at liberty to assume a possible re. volution in India; separation of the dominions, and all sorts of other dbsastrous things. In times of peace the Empire is always more or iess “doomed,” acâ€" COrding to the statements 0t many gloom-laden British subjects. But in [time of war how suddenly things look up in that queer, queer British Empire! In ordinary times you would naturally judge from the way Ireland and the dominions and colonies talk about Great Britain that the poor old country didn‘t have a friend on earth. In ordinary times some part of the British Empire is alwaysberating the home government. “I haven’t a thing to take back," says Ireland, “but under the cir~ cumstances kindiy show me the enemy as soon as possible. I want to get at him." “Reserving for a. more auspicious time any hatred a part of our DODUIation bears to England." 83318 South Africa, "we are prepared to do our utmost in the present war.” “Serious 10ml dissatlsfaction win arise, sahib. unless Indians are permitted t0 give their lives f0r the honorable empire, now that it is at war with a foreign nation," says In dia. What a. queer, queer thing_the British Empire is when you come to think of it! “Yours Of recent date received," says Canada. "Arr. sending men 88 fast as they can be gotten ready and transportation secured." The Toronto Globe sums up the situation in the‘ tolldwing para- graph:â€" Optimism should be. the slogan of every Canadian, and especially those who are prominent in its industrial and commercial development Canada. can and will comeltthUgh the crisis in good shape. There is no need of uS‘throwing up the sponge,until we have to. While an appeal is being issued to our people to display their patri- otism by contributing to funds for certain laudable purposes, there is another appeal that should find‘ a responsive ,chord '1n the breasts of those to whom it is made. Tnat is the appeal being made to our manuâ€" facturers and financial interests to display in a practical manner their loyalty and patriotism by making efforts to relieve the unsettled condiâ€" tions of afiairs in the Dominion as aresult of the unfortunate European struggle. Canada is a young country with Unlimited resources and splendid opportunities, but if the manufacturers and the financial inter- ests are to be stampeded at this juncture, when they should loyally and resolutely face the situation, then Canada ill deserves the reputation it has achieved for stability and progressiveness.

It may be supposed that Russia would also surrender her share in the partitdonwsnmc 230,500 Square miles. Writing tn the New York Times from Asticmi. Maine, Dr. Charles W. Elieh president emeritus of “ar- vard, after setting forth the danger which faces the world as a result ml the autocratic rule in Germany and Austria, declares that while. legal neutrality must and should be me served by the United States, no one can expect Americans to think neu- trally in suelr a world-wide conflict between autocracy and popular insti- tutions.

It happened t0 be a team of bronchos belonging to T. E. Qurvin,' butcher. They were travelling at a terrific “It follows from the very exxst- ence of these American instincts and hopes that, although the people of the United States mean to maintain faithfully a legal neutrality, they are not, and cannot be, neutral or indifferent as to the ultimate outâ€" come of this titanic struggle. It alâ€" ready seems to them that England France and Russia are fighting for freedOm.and civilization. It does not ioflloxv that th-inklnguAmericans will forget the immense aervices which Germany has rendered to civilization during the last hundred years, or desire that her power to serVe letâ€" ters, science, art, and education should he in the least abridged in the outmme of this war upon which she has entered so rashly and self- ishly, and in so barbarous a spirit. Most educated AmeriCans hope and believe that by defeating the Gerâ€" man barb‘arousness the allies will only promote the noble German clv1â€" lization." ‘ m '4 m helm Dr. Elinta conclusion is that the world as a measure of self-preservaâ€" tion must, unite to suppress the war’ making power of autncrats. If it. does not it must continue to bc liaâ€" ble to a repetition of outbursts of “barbarousness” like that which ‘n drenching Europe In blood. He adds: “Should Germany and Austriaâ€" Hungary succeed in their present un- dertakings the whole civilized world would be obliged to bear continuous- ly. and to an lever-increasing am- ount, the. burdens of great arma- ments, and would live in constant fear of sudden. Invasion. now here, now thereâ€"~41 terrible fear, against which neither trnatis‘s nm‘ prnfesâ€" gions nl‘ peaceful intentions would ofv fer the least security.
