After eummarising previous efforts to promote the tunnel project, extending as far back as 1802, when a French ougineer named Mathicu brought it to the attemâ€" tion of Napoleon, Mr. Foy showed the falâ€" lacy of the old objections to the tunnel based on military grounds.

It was the miserwble degenerate who, assisted by charity from the cradle to the grave often survived the longest. The degenerates not only survived but were more prolific than the intellectuals. They had recontly placed on the statute book a feeble minded act for the feoble minded which seemed to be about the highest flight in the augenic movement which the House of Commons was capiâ€" ble of wking.

Flaxâ€" THE BEST BEEF FOR THE STATES A despatch from Montreal says : Best sirloin of beef 25 to 28 cents per pound. Best ribs 22 to 25 cents. Other cuts increased 24 cents per pound. Wholesale price for carâ€" cases 9% to 13 cents per pound. This is the table which confronts the housewife as the result of the United Btates‘ new tariff, which permits the free transportation of cattle into the States. Beef is getâ€" ting more scarce every day, and the price is going higher still, some say this winter, others not until spring. It has already gone up two to three cents a pound, and despite this increase there is no doubt that the quality of the beef on the marâ€" In the Eastern Townships Only Inferior Is to Had at Higher Prices Baled Hay and Straw.

In such an event the landlord would have to come in as sugnt;'ib::r.d:ndinti-uolï¬â€˜â€œ' agriculta r'\-‘"' * ary lessening themtm obtainable. The now Minister of Lands, .'} cording to the Chancellor, is to be given full power to acquire at a‘ reasonable price all wastse, dereliot and neglected traots of land and to‘ plant them with forests, and to reâ€"‘ claim and drain the springs on such‘ lands with a view to m cultivaâ€"‘ tion to the full limit of their possi~‘ bilities. The Ministry is to be not only empowered but instructed to act, and tho resources of the State would bo placed at its disposal for this purpose. If men want sport,‘ said the Chancellor, it must be at their own expense, and the game laws would be revised in this direcâ€" tion. The establishment of a fair miniâ€" mum wage for laborers, with reaâ€" sonable hours of work, decent housâ€" ing and the prospect of the laborer obtaining a Eit. of land for himeelf, would all be within the soope of the powers of the Commissioners, who would have authority to Ax the price of the land in the case of comâ€" pulsory acquisition. The Govern« ment proposed, the Chancellor conâ€" clud«r, to remedy the grave dt“l' ciency of cottages in the country by building some themsolves with State funds, and ‘"we have got a nico little fund at handâ€"the insurâ€" ance reserve fund." The announcement of the land proposals â€" by Chancellor JLJloyd George was made by an absolute and unanimous docision reached at recent meetings of the Cabinet. go. 1 N..W.0., $113 14; No. 8 C.W., $1.11 12, o. 3, do., $1.0.

Every Bone In the Miner‘s Body Was Broken. A despatch from Iron Mountain, Michigan, says: Gunard Johnston, a miner twentyâ€"four years old, was instantly killed at the Chapin Mine on Wednesday, when he fell nine hundred feet down a shaft. Johnâ€" ston struck on his head and every bone in his body was broken. ket has greatly deteriorated. The blame for this must not be laid at the door of the butchers. The would like to get hold of the buq beef even if they paid eix cen more for it per pound, but it is no to be had. The American dealersa have invaded the Montreal market, as they have every other market in the Eastern Townships, and have bought up all the cat:!s \at can be! obtained and rushed <~em to the American markets. The conseâ€" quence is that only the inferior aniâ€" mals as a rule find their way into the local markets, and owing to the scarcity© of beef generally even these find a seale at enhanced prices.
