Ottawa, Nov. 16.â€"Important negoâ€" tiations are, The Globe understands, nearing a conclusion under which the operations of the Hydro-Electric pow- er policy will be extended throughout the whole of Eastern Ontario, and power provided to rural and urban municipalities in this portion of the province at prices proximating those quoted in the Niagara and western Ontario districts. i The conference between Mr Back and [Mr Monk related. it is understOOd to Chats Falls, the waterpOWer of which the Hydro-Electric Commission is de- sirous of securing in order to serve Ottawa and the immediate district. The Minister of Public Works is re- viewing the terms upon which this waterpower Wr-s turned over to inter- ests represented by Hon. Mr. Harty of Kingston, and an early announcement of his course if looked for. Ski/03 6m Hon. Adam Beck is in Ottawa to- day, and conferred for some time this morning with Hon. Frank Cochrane, Minister of RaiIWays and Canals, and subsequently with Hon. F.D~. Monti, Minister of Public Works. When in- terviewed none of the Ministers were yet ready to speak officially for pub- lication, but the Globe learns that the proposed extensicn of the power policy was under consideration, and that there is a. probability of an early and important announcement. It is understood that Mr. Beck sought, on behalf of the power Com- mission tg control the dams four and eight 0n the Trent Canal for the pur- pose of generating Hydro-Electric pow er to be distributed to eastern muni- cipalities. The question as to the jur- isdiction of these waters is still pend- ing, both in the province and the Do- minion claiming control. It is believ- jed, however, that an arranzement was reached by the respective Ministers to- day under which the Hydro-Electric Commission will secure the right to ;operate at these dams pending the decision as to jurisdiction, which may be delayed for some months. Mr. Beck pointed out that the Commission was not immediately concerned with the solutions, and submitted proposals un der which it would commence to oper- ate immediately, leaVing the question as to whether it would have to lease from the Province or the Dominion to be determined later. It is believed that the Commission has suggested terms satisfactory to both governments. f‘ 9‘2“ any: HEA'Q [HELUNGS ' ""1" '3; "5:. 25 emu-rs Goes to Allandale 16.â€"Important negoâ€" he Globe understands, usion under which the he Hydro-Electric pow- e extended throughout a-stern Ontario, and l to rural and urban in this portion of the ces proximating those Niagara and western ts.

In six years it has grown from a member- ship of 32 to 869. The Society has had two freszd‘ents in that time, Mr. J .H. Bennete. and Mr. George Vickers. At the annual meeting last week Mr Vick- ers retired, and was succeeded by Mr. J. A. McLaren. The Society has done much tOWards justifying the name which the citizens of the county town like to roll round their tongues- “Beautiful Barrie.” Upwards of $650 has been spent in promoting this end during the year just closed. As $237 of this came from the Government grant, the society was actually able to give back to its members in pre- miums more than they paid in subâ€" scriptions. In his Presidential Valedic- tory, Mr. Vickers suggested the ac- quirement of another small lakeside Lindsay, has a Horticultural Society which is kept alive by the laudable ef- forts of a. few public spirited citizens It is a commendable organization and what has been accomplished in Barri could also be accomplished here if our citizens would become actively identified with the Society.

Mr. Sylvester says they had to cease operations on account of tne severe cold weather but they had been very well satisfied with the work done with the thresher , CASTOR IA this season, as it was doing more work with less men than any machine in the west. He said there were mil- lions of buehels of grain standing in stocks, unthresh‘ed, and he heard of several cases where farmers were of- fering as high as thirty cents a bushâ€" el for threshing, where the current price paid is nine cents. The planet Mars will be in opposi_ tion to the sun_ on Nov. 25; that is the earth would be on that date, between the sun and Mars. Since the orbit of Mars was greater than that of the earth, the earth will be nearest to Mars then, that is about 50,000,000 miles from it. When it would be night with us, the sun would be shining on Mars, thus the planet would be very brilliant to the naked eye, Owing to the very wet weather. said Mr. Sylvester, the threshing had been delayed, and at .the present time even the steam outfits were tied up with the cold, and it would be hard to say when some of the grain would reach the eleVators. The wet weather has also interfered with the fall plowing, and very little has been done in the section he visited. When asked what he thought of the business prospects of the west, he said that it is undoubtedly the land for the am- bitious young, man, as many were making good on the land, particular- ly, and it was only three years before one could. with industry, own anec- ticn of first-class land. ' To the Editor : Sinâ€"The Whitney manifesto says: “We have put the Provincial finances on a sound and stable footing, doub- led- the revenue, etc.” That’s good. We like to hear that the revenue has been doubled; but if it has, what has become of the money ? Have lar- ger dividends been declared, that is, have our taxes been reduced ? I fear not, and if not, then there is some- thing wrong at the head office - the general management. This matter of tax paying is of the utmost impor- tance, and should more than interest the farmer, the manufacturer, and the merchantâ€"the tax payers, fcr, if the revenue has been doubled, why haven’t the taxes been reduced ? I .to think that he made the mistake of his life when he passed business by and got into something else. Maybe so, but it is hgrd to think so now, when he says that he has doubled the revenue and has not been able to reduce our taxesâ€"increase the divi- dends. THE PLANET MARS 2 IS NEARING EARTH; know, of course that Grandpa. Whit- ney prides himself on his business abi- lityâ€"seems to think that he is speci- ally gifted as a business man, seems I’m glad there’s one day for rest- ing, one day the tired man owns, when he may cease his weary questing for bones, and still more bones. I’m glad to see the people wending their way to church and pew, to hear a. tale of love unending, and grace for me and you. It rests one’s soul to hear the ringing of the church bells here and there: to hear the crgan no- bly flinging its music to the air. The tiresome talk of trades unspoken, store window shades are down; a stillness soothing and unbroken, is resting on the town, save where some ancient dame is crooning ahymn she used to sing, before her life had reach- ed its nooning, and love had taken wing: save where the children, strange to sorrow, find Sunday dull and gray, and wail a longing for to-morrow. when they can run and play. I’m glad there is one day of resting, when wheels have ceased to hum, and all the bartering and jesting and greedy lips are dumb. One blessed day, one day in seven, a boon to have and hold One day to think of hymns and heav- en, forgetting guile and gold.
