The Mail and Empire (Conseevaâ€" tive) links up Mayor Church‘s attack on the goyernment with the growing antagonism between the government and the municipalities of the province on the question of the management of the Hydro Electric,Commission, in How $1,000,000 is said to have been Divided One of the big surprises in the poâ€" litical situation is the violence of the attack made by the Conservatiye Mayâ€" or of Toronto on the Provincial govâ€" ernment for levying the special one mill tax, which applies equally all over the province. _ Mayor Church not only declares that the tax is illegâ€" al and unconstitutional, but claims that the Ontario goyernment is not even spending the money so raised exolusively for war purposes. Whethâ€" er or not Mayor Church is right in contention the important phase of the matter is that, again in this case, the government would not have bad to lay this heavy extra burden on) the people if they had managed the finances more economically. | Further round the terrace to the soutiâ€"west of the Chateau is the statâ€" ue of Wolfe and Montcalm. _ It is as you know a square pillar aud its mesâ€" sage is that of the stability of noble character, As I looked I wondered if the day would yet come when all the pressnt strife past, we would be putting up pillars of our joint tribâ€" utes of praise to German, French and Briton as we forget the strife and reâ€" member only the better qualities It may be so. We may pray that it be so, but meantime if we are to be worthy of that day, we must provel ourselves men by doing and sufl'ering[ as good soldiers of our country and’ in a way worthy of being counted soldiers of Jesus Christ. ! Down somewhat lower than the level of the terrace is the statue of Laval a French inscription celebrates his mission as the founder of Educaâ€" tion and the exponent of the true reâ€" liglon, while smaller pieces of group statuary on the side of the main pilâ€" lar present the consecrating of wild natiyes to the service of Christ. Women come with their children to be blessed, sisters minister to the sick and dying and very much of the essentials of Christianity is presentâ€" ed to view. ‘ I was mueh interested in the statue of Champlain as he stands on his pedâ€" destal with bared head, hat in hand, reverently looking into the unexâ€" plored lands to the West. Under him at the side an angel with trumpâ€" et voice announces to the cribes inâ€" land the arrival, while Indian ehiefs come and bow before the shrine of Christianity which his coming repreâ€" sents, ‘ I have not so far been over much of the territory around the city, but of course I have been more than one round on the terrace surrounding the Chateau de Frontenac and really the view from that point is very magnifiâ€" cent. The BDurkam Review With kindest regards, I am in the old city of Quebec, where I am likely to be located durâ€" ing the period of navigation. My work is that of Immigration Chapâ€" lain and my duties are with settlers coming into the country, including sieck and wounded soldiers and their friends who are returning. The first vessel since my arrival is expected on Friday and so there is at present little to do. I was thinking that I might be of service in seeing any friends among the soldiers, of whom I was made aware as they go overâ€" seas to the war. I do not know what priyvileges I might have regardâ€" ing these, but probably,l would have some opportunity of meeting them. _ Durham and neighborkeod will appreciate the following letter from Rev. Dr. Farquharson. We are sure his kindly offer to take an interest in any of his old boys passing his way to the front, will be much apâ€" preciated and acted upon. â€" All havâ€" ing friends going should note the address and write to him. 105 St. Anne‘s St., Quebec, May 1oth, 1916 Dear Mr Ramage, â€"â€" Fighting the One Mill Tax Now Immigration Chaplain $1.50 per year. $1.00 if paid in advance.

I THE DUBHAM REVIEV In 1906, under the Conseryative administration, the expenditures of the Proyince were eight and a half million dollars, toâ€"day undar the same administration, the expenditure amounts 10 twentyâ€"three mullion dolâ€" lars, $220,000 Bam Clark, M. P. P, for East Norâ€" thumberland, stated the case in a nuta shell when be said " The government taxes the poor man who wants to see a nickel show and lets the plutocrats of the uickel companics off with a sang.‘‘ Whule ibere is no ubjection from the people against paying the amuseâ€" ment tex, there is a prevalent fecling that at least part of the necessity for the imposition of this tax ie the failâ€" ure of the government to administer its finances on an econrmical basis, and also its failure to exact just taxâ€" ation from some of the wealthy corâ€" porations, If they had been as anx» 10us to tax these plutocrats as they are to take toil from the common man in the street there would have keen no need for this amusement tax. If, for example, the government levied what they should levy, under the| ’Mining Tax Act, on The Canada Copâ€" per Company, which mines nickel,| they would take from this company | some $400,000 this year, instead of | the paltry $40 000, which" they are | actually taking in accordance with | the fiye year flat rate agreement enâ€"| tered into by Mr Heareq in 1912 as | Minister of Mines,â€"an arrangement| which Mr Hearst adunts was not: authorized by the legislature. 1 ison Com. Monday, May the 15th, saw the coming into effect of the new amuseâ€" ment tax levied by the Ontario Goyâ€" ernment on patrions of all places of amusement. 1t is estimated that the tax will produce an anmual revenue of at least $500,000. The real meaniog is that the people of Ontario who vigit theatres and especially the hunâ€" dreds of thousands of Ontario citizens, who, in cities and small towns alike. go to see the movies, will bhave to pay the Ontario Government bali a nulâ€" hron dollars a year in taxation in addiâ€" tion to all the other taxatron they are| now paying. | Special to the Review, A number of the neighbors assemâ€" bled at the home of Mr ‘¥m. Grierson last Saturdsy evening, where an aaâ€" dress and presentation took place for the boys who are training. Mr Wou. McCullough acted as chairman and after the address which was read by Mr Jmo. Milligan, the presents were handed to the boys by Mr Arch. Park. F, Corbett received m handâ€" some wrist watch, while N. Grierson and J. Derby were each presented with a gold signet ring, purse and mirror, After a neat reply from the boys and short addresses by A. Derby J. Milligan and A. Park the National Anthem was sung. Light refreshâ€" ments were served and a very sociâ€" able tim> was spent by all. Before parting everyone joined in singing " God be with you till we meet again.‘"‘ ,‘ Mr James Park‘s house took fire lass Sunday, but with the assistance of the neighbors, was put out before much damage was done. l other words, the MeGarryâ€"Beck feud, Ptes. Fred Corbett and Jno, Derby spent the week end at their homes here. SBapper N, Grierson, of the D.iwiâ€" sional Signal Co,, Ottawa, came 4 me on final leave last week, but owing to gickness, will have to remain a few days longer. Misa Jean Derby left last week for Ottawa to take a eourse in the Vicâ€" torian Order of Nurses. Miss Bessie Park spent a week at Priceville with ber sister, Mrs W. Mather. Eyen this government organ, thereâ€" fore, recoguizes the widenming breach between the municipalities and the government, which obviously must endanger the very safety of the govâ€" ernmeut‘s tenure of power, Bunday School opened on May 7tb with an attendance of twentyâ€"six. A number from this part took in the celebration for the 147th boys at Hanover last Friday. * sOUTH BENTINCK $1,000,000.00 Commission A Big Tax Assigned to Fletcher M eg h eul II Craven Com. â€" $80,000 Toronto, May 15th. | e x 4# + GRANT‘S Â¥ o n ie ts o t is io t c t o & | ryi * Rockfast Drills, the ofe obe ofe ofe obe oo on ie che ho oge i5 o A 4 * New Printsâ€" # DAFIGY 11« :skxass* s 60 to Potatoes per bag. .... 150 to 2 Hides..;:1; :« .:.1% 14 Beef, dressed ...... .. 13 00 to 1f Hay, per ton ...... .... 13 00 to 14 List has beon car«tally revised, Durnarm, May 17, 1916.
