1t must be tough on the associate
editor of the Optic if he has to refer
back in the files of that paper few
years back and stumbles onto the
many complimentary (?) notices of
himself the Optic contained at that
time. But there is consolation in
the fact that there are lots of good
men whose names are mentioned in
the same columns in the same man
ner.

The Canadian cabinet has decided
to abolish the rebate of ls cents a
ton on all grain shipped by the St.
Lawrence canal to Montreal, and in
stead the government decided to
abolish the rebate system of 20 cents
on grain passing through the st.
Lawrence canal, no matter whether
bound to Canadian or American
ports. This removes the discrimina-
tion in favor of Montreal complained
of by President Harrison in his re-

CENTRAL AMERICA.
The Old Civilization and the Newest on the Western Hemisphere to Re Illustrated.

The old Civilization and the Newest on the
 Western Hemisphere to Be Illustrated.
 Central America, the seat of the oldest and newest civilizations in the western hemisphere, is to be well represented by exhibits of it's glory that is past and its prosperity that is at the worlds fair. Lieut.. Scrivan, the special commissioner to the Central American states, has made an informal report on his work and the outlook, which he pronounces very encouraging indeed.
 His final report will not be presented for some weeks. Lieut.. Scrivan says in reference to the progress made in ex- position matters by the four countries in Central America that the prospect for an interesting and excellent display from them is most encouraging; each now seems to understand the value to it of the opportunity afforded by the Worlds Columbian exposition at Chica- go. At Jamaica much interest was manifested in exposition affairs, and at Turks island the same feeling was man. ifest. The people all seem anxious for recognition at Chicago.
 At Bermuda a commission has been appointed and small appropriation secured. Tine Bermuda commission viii deal directly with the director general and the authorities of the exposition at Chicago, and not through the English colonial office. The people of Bermuda are particularly desirous that their ex- hibit should not be placed with that of the West India islands, the preference of the commission beinC for space near or adjoining that allotted to Canada. Strong efforts are being made to dispel the impression that Bermuda is q West India island. Though small, Bermuda is of considerable importance to the United States commercially. and its merchants are anxious to make a cred itable display, and considerable in- crease of the appropriation, which is now three thousand dollars, will be pranted
