The de velopment of trade with the West indies and South America was also promised attention. In behalf of the working classes reference was made to the special regulations recently pro- mulgated by the government tor the purpose of insuring adequate provision for the sanitary protection and medical care of working men on all railways and public Works ; and legislation was promised for the purpose of providing boards of arbitration to assist in the adjusting of labor troubles. Tne opening paragraph naturally referred to matters in South Africa and to the prompt assistance so enthusiasti- cally tendered by the Government and people ot the Dominion and so cordial- ly accepted by the motherland. The splendid development ot trade which has marked the regime of the present administration received attention, and the promise was made that action would be taken to provide for the pmper 1 Ottawa, Feb. 3.

The weather was extremely cold and stormy, yet in spite of this the attend- ance was larger " both places than ever before, and the interest taken in the subjects discussed is ever on the. increase. The delegates Mr, A. W. Peart B. A. oGBarlimrton and Mr. Raynor B. B. A. of Rose Hall were ex- cellent men, thoroughlv acquainted with the, subjects handled, and able to present them in a convincing and pleasing manner. , - The Abjeets discussed new: "The production ot pork for export," "The common diseases of domestic animals," late government to meet a large and growing tittiittit in thh department. In this connection it is decidedly comical to read in the Mail and Empire that: --."The two cent rate on city letters is an extortion which ought to be stop- ped". The Mail has surely forgotten or it hopes its readers have forgotten, that tho "extortion" is a relic ot Con. aervative extravagance and that in spite of the two cent city rate the three cent domestic rate and the five cent imperial rate, the Department passed into the hands of the present adminis- tration with a deficit ot three quarteinr of a million dollars, and further that; that deficit was practically wiped out during the first two years of the prea- ent Postmaster General's regime while at the same time the general ettieieney of the Department was im- mensely improved.
