 Toronto is agitated by a controversy which is perhaps as interesting and important & our State House controversy. The people of Toronto are trying to decide whether tight lacing is Injurious. and quite number of mothers have given their opinions concern ing the matter. One of them tells her woes in the following touching manner: 1T have had great deal of trouble with my daugh- ter, 15. She had read articles against cor sets and refused to be laced. I punished her severely several times, but she still persisted in cutting the laces at night. I finally en- cased her in tight-ftting, heavily bound pair of stays. 1t is no use, mamma, she said; when they pain me tonight I'll have to cut the laces.' When undressed fastened her wrists together, In the morning. re leased her, but as soon as dressed fastaned her wrists behind her back and so kept them all day, except at meal times and while at the piano and so for one entire week I Kept her in bondage. She has not removed the stays since" This is the kind of mother for nice young girl to have. No nonsense about her.
 The ''great Chicago railway e1positionn has not pleased everybody. Now that the show is over it is found that there is a large de- fcit, probably equal to the total of the guar. anty fund, which was $50, 900, and which was subscribed by fifty individuals, firms and cor porations in sums of $1, ,O0o each. These parties will make good the deficit, whether it be $50, ,000 or $50, 1000. The Chicago Times thinks it will be impertinent to ask the man agers what they have done with all the fees received from exhibitors and patrons, but cannot but rejoice that no matter into whose pockets it has gone it will eventually inure to the benefit of Chicago. Continuing, the Times says: When the awards are finally made, if that should happen any time before Christmas, the pet appliances of the exhibits in which the secretary and other managers have been interested will doubtless be em- blazoned in glory, but the nature of the fraud has been pretty we'll ventilated, and the value of the premiums is not likely to be what the recipients hoped. It is said that the keen-scented secretary has arranged with those who arc to be declared successful ex- hibitors to give them the advantage of his special car in a unique way.

The Trade DnIIar

To the Editor of the JOURNAL AND COURIER
 The trade dollar swindle is, as stated by 'A. J. M.," base and villainous. Its curren- ey value should be more not less, than our really bogus dollars, halves and quarters Iris the best dollar ever coined, and it bears the United States stamp.

Detroit is amused by the decision of jus tice respecting the meaning of the statute which declares that all saloons shall be closed on Sunday and that "the word closed shall be construed to apply to the back door ss well as to the front door" The justice ruled that if the doer was closed, even if unlocked, then the letter and spirit of the statute were unbroken. Thus, if an officer were forced to turn the knob and use a little exertion in opening the door, the dealer was on the safe side of the law.

He will reverse the ordi- nary cry for cheaper passenger and freight tariffs on railroads, claiming that a reduction would not ,inure to the benefit of the pro- ducer, or an increase to his detriment, as he would get the same for his grain or stock in

Mayor Harrison and the saloon ekespefs' friends in the Common Oouncdil made qussii blunder in their ordinance intended to nullffy the high license law. The ehaEter provides that no license shall extend beyond the mu- nicfpal year, which ends on the first Tuesday in April. and accordingly 1t was provided that the licenses should expiSe on tho first Monday in that month. But the young man who made the calculation forgot that 1884 is leap year, so that the first Monday comes six days after the first Tuesday in April, and hence the licenses would all be void. The ordinance has been patched

THE mayor points out to us that the
ordinance of 1852 declares that the ordi
nance of 1926, prohibiting and furnishing
the use Of fireworks in this city shall not
be construed to prohibit fireworks, other
than guns or chasers Oh the Sd, 4th and
9Th of July. This repeal of the former
wholesome law relieves the mayor from
the accusation Of not enforcing the city
ordinances in permitting 4th of July
fireworks, and throws upon councils the
chief responsibility for the abominable
nuisance that day has become, though il
is a question whether it is not within the
power of any magistrate independently,
of authority by ordinance, to prevent
the very great disorder and encumbrance
of the highways that result from the
free discharge of fireworks. But the
mayor can hardly he blamed for not ex-
ercising such power even if he has it,
IN view of the permission extended by
the ordinances. The matter is one for
the attention of councils. We hope that
the members have been sufficiently im-
pressed by the saturnalia of Wednesday,
and the nearly fatal results to citizens,
to be disposed to repeal the 1852 ordin
ance and leave the wisdom of 1926 to
have its sway.

Too Deep, Perhaps.

Generally the exceptions the governor
takes in his vetOes are sound. and i'm his
latest sweeping refusal to pay the state
employees moneys that they have not
earned he is clearly right. But some of
his exceptions to the bill seem to be
fairly criticisable. 1t appropriate for
instance, $1,000 to pay the secretary of
the board of public charities, the
salary that has been due to hin,
for some time. The indebted
ness of the state is not disputed ;
but the governor considers that it should
have been provided for in separate biz.
because the general appropriation bill
can only, under the constitution, EN- :
brace appropriations for the ordinary
expenses of the executive, legislative and
judicial departments of the common
wealth - and the governor declares
that the back salary of the general
agent and secretary is certainly not of
the ordinary expenses of the executive,
legislative and judicial departments of
the commonwealth The board of pub
lie charities is not branch of either of
those departments"

Several New Cases RepDrted.
The health commissioner reports the
following new cases:
Benjamin SnaveIy. No. 317 West King
street.
Margie Evans, six-year-old child, 1913
Plum street.
Sarah Swenk aged 12 years, No. 242
West Vine street, sent to the hospital.
There are rumOrs that one or two other
cases exist which the attending physicians
have failed to report to the board of health.
Much complaint is made that the OlN
"bummers' halr' now used as q hospital
for smallpox patients is not at all
fit for the purpose. As the city
owns the old BOardman mill Oh the Con
estoga, and as it is now unoccupied and its
location very suitable for hospital, it is
suggested that it be put in repair and used
for that purpose. 1t would probably cost
less than 81 900 to make tho necessary re-
pairs, and even if it cost twics a. much it
would be much Detter to expsnd the money
than to be without proper facilities for the
treatment of the unfortunate patients.
About noon it was discovered that there
was a case of smallpox IN the house of
Peter HUliard SAG North street. The
sufferer is Cora Smith, aged IL years q
step daughter of Hilliard. DR.. Fitzpatrick
asked the mother Of the girl to allow him
to have her sent to the hospital. This she
refused to do and the house was quaran
tined. The family are very poor and ara
really in want. Any contributions for
them can be left AT the mayors Office.
John H. Mctzler, No. 13l East Lemon
street, has the disease also.

The partisan determination of the Re
publicans to play the grab game on the
subject of congressional appointment is
made evident by the bitterness with
which they denouuce the action of Lowrey
in voting for a fair apportionment, as a
matter of bargain and sale. A division on
the basis of the vote of 1880 would give
the Republicans u congressman and the
Democrats 13: while one on the basis of
geographical fitness and equality of popula-
lion would give the Democrats II districts
and the Republicans Is with two districts
doubtful. Yet for voting for what is an
evidently fair apportionment, Lowrey Is
denounced as Judas by his Republican
colleagues.
