CANADA AT THE FAIR.
New and Satisfactory Arrangements Con.
corning the Live stock ExhIbit.


corning the Live stock ExhIbIt.
OTTAWA, Ont, May 14.-The Execu-
tive Commissioner for Canada has re-
turned from Chicago, where he made
salts factory arrangement regarding the
exhibit of live stock and horses from the
Dominion of Canada at the Worlds Fair.
The limit Of the number of animals for
which the exhibition authorities will
provide has been increased beyond what
was at first awarded.
The Commissioner ascertained that
the exposition authorities will accept all
pedigrees which are accepted in recog-
nized herd books of Canada. 1t is ex-
pected that the United States Govern
ment will admit pure-bred animals for
exhibition purposes duty free on a SINH
lar basis. The Executive Commission
met the Minister of Agriculture for On
tario, and after some discussion the fol-
lowing basis of mutual action was
agreed upon:
The Dominion Government is to pay
transportation charges on all live stock
to Chicago and return where stock does
not change hands; also to provide food
for stock while on exhibition. The On
tario authorities are to defray the cost
OF selecting the animals and to provide
q sufficient number of herdsmen to take
care Of them while on the grounds. By
this arrangement the stockmen will be
relieved of a large proportion of the
burden which usually attaches to such
exhibitions. They will, however, have
to assume the risk of sending their ami
mails to the show or insure them.

Japanese Etiquette.

Travellers in Japan tell Of the uncon.
Germ with which Japanese will take a
bath in full publicity, and the custom
has impressed foreigners as immodest.
An Englishman who has not been long
in the country says there Is really
nothing immodest in the promiscuous
bathing of men, women and children
from a Japanese point of view. With
them cleanliness is the object sought
for, and the etiquette of the bathroom
differs from the etiquette Of the parlor.
With Europeans, he says, the attitude
of walters is only permitted when the
music is played It is something like
this with the Japanese bathers. When
the necessary operation of washing or
doing other work requires it, to strip be
comes a duty. On the other hand, a
Japanese woman would scorn to appear
decollete. To her eye our bathrooms are
an establishment, and the exposure OF
the person for display is incomprehensi-
BILE. This writer thinks that the Japan
csc are not excelled by their western
brethren in modesty.

The Financial Success of the Affair
Already Assured.
The members of the Brooklyn ORA
matte club are unceasing in their efforts
to make "InnisfaiP' grand success.
Financial success is already assured and
if the energy with which the members
fall into their respective parts is to be
taken as a criterion of what the final re-
suit will be, there is no doubt but that
the entertainment of next Thursday
evening will be brilliant affair. And
why should it not The story of the
drama is one that appeals to the noblest
parts of our nature. The scene of action
being in County Kerry, around the
beautiful lakes of Killarney, transmits to
the players certain romance that keeps
the audience interested from this rise of
the curtain till it drops on the last act.
The farce, t"The Duchess of Dublin is
one of the most laughable farces that
has been seen here in some time. The
musical portion of the programme will
be above the average. Bergen's full
orchestra will be present. Miss B.
Coogan is hard at work with singers for
the occasion and Manager Calvin is
equally jealous in his care of the whole
performance.

A Democratic Record.
Louisiana, Mo.

One of the best records any party
practice common-sense economy. This
record has been made in Missouri by
the Democratic party and to-day state
taxes are no longer burdensome. The
revenue tax hereafter will be 15 cents
on the 800. This represents the en-
tire cost of the state government,
which includes support of the public
schools, the educational, eleemosynary
and penal institutions of the state and
criminal costs. Most of the money
derived under this tax is returned to
the people direct through the public
schools. The interest tax represents
a legacy left by the Republican party.
This is matter that should not be
overlooked.
No Democrat in Missouri need ever
lack argument in favor of maintaining
his party in power. He can safely
assert that it has reduced taxes and
maintained all the state institutions in
a creditable manner; that it assumed
control of the state government at
time when the states credit was
worthless and, without increasing tax
alton, has given Missouri credit in
the financial world second to no other
debt until to-day it is no longer a bur
den. This is matter of history and
ment in favor of Democratic supremacy
that cannot be answered-Jeterson

A Sixteen-Year-Old Boy on the Tariff.

From the Journal of Agricultural
able paper to answer Mr.. j. j. Penix.
He says: Now don't you know that it
was the protectionists that put sugar on
the free list, and your own party to a
man opposed it? That taking the tariff
off sugar is in perfect accord with the
principles of protection? Those same
protectionists not only put sugar on the
free list, but many other articles, be-
sides keeping in the same list hundreds
of others" The Republicans put sugar
on the free list and placed bounty of
Ii cents on all sugar produced in the
United States, testing above 80 and less
than 90, and cents on all testing above
80. The Democrats opposed the boun-
ty, not the placing of it ON the free list.
Most protectionists up this way say the
higher the tariff, the cheaper the arti-
cles. If it is good for one thing to be
placed on the free list why will it not
suit others to be placed on the same
list?

What is Truth?"

Ed. Register-In your issue of this
week, will appear a very interesting
and scholarly paper on the above
named subject, and l will suppose it
to be written with the utmost fairness
and candor, and perhaps, too, to elicit
some further thought on that interest
ing topic.
| will not presume to say that this
accomplished writer may not under
stand the full force of the expression
made by the Roman Governor Of Judea,
in the interrogatory which he had put
to the prisoner at his bar; but, | have
good reason to believe that many of
his delighted readers may not be equal
ly fortunate in comprehending the true
force of that profound question.
Furthermore, | exceedingly regret my
inability to exactly agree with this
otherwise most agreeable person, in
the implied, if not really expressed ac-
cusation of certain classes of ministers
and preachers, perhaps, who, it is al
legged, declaim, and sometimes, with
asperity, against PLATE, for his course
of proceeding against Jesus, sometimes
called the Christ.
Now, it may be possible, that GER
tain class of ministers, but l must say
innocently. are at times led in moments
of excusable zeal, to so unjustly deride
or condemn this high official for his
course on that long-to-be-remembered
gotten that the better informed class
of clergymen and priests do not so rail
against PLATE.
The most that can Be truthfully said
of the delinquency of this officer, is that
he really did make some effort, though
Intellectual, to save the life of that roy
al prisoner. That he could have been
put forth his whole power of Office, to
save the life of Jesus, / have the best
reason to doubt.
But. as to Pilates question, ''What
is truth?n | am led to believe but few
ordinary readers. do, at first sight,
at least, sufficiently understand. Now
to obviate this disadvantage the under
signed proposes to the distinguished
author of the paper in question, Oh!
What is truth, and to the worthy
Editor of the REGISTER, and to as many
of both their friends and the public
generally, if they are SO disposed, to
come to st. Paul's church on Sunday
evening the 10th instant, and hear a
discourse on those famous words ut
tered by Pontius PLATE on that memor-
able day when the death-warrant of
that most jusut of all persons, was so
signed and subsequently
equally unjustly executed.
