The hage deâ€" | crease dees not mean that there has been amy reduction in customs taxâ€" | asien under the Borden Government ; | on the sontrary, at the last session of Parliament the tariff was increased uper many commedities in erder to | meet the demands of the Big Interest | allies of the Ministry. What the deâ€" | crease in revenue does mean is that | Caradian purchases abroad have falâ€" | len off by many millions within the | past three menthsâ€"ene more proof of | the depression and the serious finarâ€" |cial comditions which have come to | the Dominion with Berden rule. Che Burkham Review With development works stayed as a result of the financial stringeney, with indastrial plants shut downr or ramning part time only, with anemâ€" iloy ment evidenmt to an extent never etore known in Canada, the purchasâ€" ing power of the people has naturally and inevitably suffered a great reâ€" duction. â€"Increased taxation and fallâ€" ing revemues are part of the . price Canadians are paying the Borden methods of adminiatration. For the first time in a score of years, emigration from Canada is likely to exceed the number of newâ€" comers enteriag the Dowinion during the current fiecal twelvemonth. For the firss time in the history of the country, a gevernment is called upon to deport settlers, not as criminals or * undesirables ‘‘ but because there is no work by which they can earn their living. This is the sitaation which bas come upon Cazmada since Borden rule was substituted for that at the Liberal party. The tacts must be faced. Nothing ean be gained from an attempt to disâ€" guise or conceal them. It is worse than idle to tollow the lead of partiâ€" san Conseryatiye papers and â€" deâ€" nounee as *‘ calamity howlers ‘‘ those who set down conditions as they exâ€" ist.â€" The truth must be met. Under the administratin of Sir Wilfrid Lanrier, there was increasing prosperity in Canada ard a constant fHlow of desirable new settlers in a land which offered work and opporâ€" tunity tor all. Under the adiminis tration otf Sir Robert Burden, there bas come industrial stagnation, an alarming slackening otâ€" Canadian prosperity, _ widespread unemployâ€" ment accompanied by a steady imâ€" crease in the cost of living. The Government cannot escape the comndemnation of the facts. lis reacâ€" tionary tariff policy, its extravagance its ineffisiency, bas brougLt a comâ€" plets reversaf of the prosperous, proâ€" gressive conditions which preyailed ander Liberal rule.

Smitn & Sons, The Ford Garage. THE DUBHAM REVIEW TSex ~Centenary <of On the 24th June is the far gone year ot 1314;there was fought a batâ€" tle which, for m?gfl’m had few eqâ€" uals in the world. Is is reckoned ene of about. a ~dusen. battles styled "decisive battles otf the woild.‘"‘ _ Al: men are Scosish â€"at Bannockburn, just as all are Greoks at Marathon. When the few, patriots all, drive back the invaders of their country, though in overwheiming ferce, the world remembers and it is fitting that in Scotland and elsewhere this sumimer the 600:h anniversary of the battie that contirmed Seottish indeâ€" perdence, should be «recalied and .celebrated . We haye received a copy of a Glusâ€" gow paper of 24th June last filled with Banuockbarn material which is all most readable, and we make room this week tor a fraction of it dealing with Robert Brace. the kero of Banâ€" neekburn, "one of the master spirits of mankicd," whith appears uader the eaption BRUCE‘8 PLACE IN HISFORY ‘‘About the place in history of Robâ€" ert the Bruce there can bo no quesâ€" tion. Hestands in the first erder of human greatness. Amorg the kings who bave raled in tihese islards he stands alone. . The greatest of heredâ€" itary sovereigna, Scottish or English is beside him commonplace, Cromâ€" well and the Conquerer alone belong te the elass of heroes to which he belongs. â€" But Bruce overcame diffiiâ€" culties such as never coufronted W im of Nermandy ; what the migbty Oli yer accomplished perished with him. The work ot Bruce was lasting. Maxâ€" well speaks of Brace us the ‘‘maker‘" ot Seotland. If as wea may, date the kingdom ef Scotlard from Kemneth McAlpine‘s accessien in 843 A D, the expression may seem not exactly the )right one ; but in so far as it conyeys the impression that Biuce out of wreckage and dissolution, reared a [new state like the kingdom of modern !haly, it is not only jast but indicative of the measare of kis achievement. Bruok as TH® MirRoR oF CHIVALRY But accurately as we may fix Bruce‘s place in history, it is not so easy to deâ€" termine his character as a man, Largâ€" ely must we reason from the thing done to the doer, â€" In mediaeval hisâ€" tory the portraiture of eharacter was conventional, _ Men were appreciared by the standards of chiyalry, and deâ€" scribed in ats diction, ‘Just as in an earlier age mouks aseribed the same virtues to all saints, so in the ages of chivairy the compilers of Romaun‘s and Gestes Historicall ascribed the same virtues to all their knightly heiâ€" oes, _ To Barbout, Bruce was the perâ€" fect mirror of chivairy as his brotbers«, Neil and Edward, Douglas and Ranâ€" dolpb, were likewise, _ Buat through the tinted light of that rhymed litera« ture the real lineaments of the great man shine, _ We are in presence of a man whoinspired love and contidence, who spread the charm of a richly gifâ€" ted nature upon all around him, who secured . the lifelon« service and devoâ€" tion of friends, and bent to his wili the most bitter foes, _ In n age of blood aund iron his disposition was werciful and averse from bleodshed. _ He forâ€" gave as in the case of the Earl of Ross (who had betrayed his wife and daughâ€" ter, torn from sanctuary at the shrine of 8t Duthac in Tain, to the English King), the most eruel injuries, and what is even more remarkable, attachâ€" ed to his service for life those whom he thus pardoned. * Purkay, Jualy 23, 1914.

Still we bhave difficulty in coming face to face with the man. _ We only see through the mists which time has cast aroubdd it a figure of eolossal proporâ€" tion ‘walking amid his shadowy peers.‘ The greater outlines of his character are too strongly marked to escape us ; we miss the lighter shades and touch~â€" es which confer individuality, _ Yet much was written about Bruce and a few particulare may be gleaned.] Or Lorty StatURE axp GREAT Perâ€" sONAL STREAGTH In his figure the king was tall and well shaped, . Before broken down by illness, and in the prime of. life he stood nearly 6 ft high ; his hair curled closely and shortly round bis neck, which possessid that breadth and thickness which belong to men of great strength : he was broad shouldâ€" ered and open chested and the proporâ€" tion of his limbs combined power with ligntness and activity. _ These qualiâ€" ties were increased not only by his eonstant occupation in war, Lbut by his tondness for the chase and all hranly amusements, Tt is not known whethâ€" er he was dark or fair complexioned, but his forehead was low, his cheek bones stroug and prominent ,and the general expression fof his countenance open and cheerful, although be was maimed by a wound which had injurâ€" ed his lower jaw. _ His manners were dignified and engaged ; after battle rothing eould be pleasanter or more courteous. _ He excelled in all the exâ€" ercises of chivalry, to such a degree, indeed,‘that the English themselves did mot scruple to account him the the third best knight in Europe. His memory was stored with the romances of the period, in which he took great delight. _ ‘Their hair breadth ‘scapes and perilous adventures were someâ€" times scarcely more wonderful than his own ; and he bad early imbibed from such works an appetite for inâ€" dividual enterprise and glory. Brilâ€" liant military talent and consumate bravery have often been found amongâ€" st men and proved far more of a curse than a blessing ; but rarely indeed shall we discover them united to so excellent a judgement â€"eontrolied by such perfect disinterestedness and emâ€" ployed for so sacred an end.
