In an insurance suit in the Circuit
Court last week, there seems to have
been a PROVISION in the policy, that if
the property insured be or become in
numbered by chattel mortgage, dur
ing the continuance of the policy,
without the consent of the Company,
written on said policy, then said pol
icy should be void, and the Court
held that this was valid provision,
which the law would enforce. We
mention the fact that those having
policies containing such a provision
may be apprised of the matter and
see, in case they incumber their
property, that due notice is given TO
the Company when the policy they
have contains such provision.

The Forum, which its readers re-
gard as the foremost of our periodi-
Gals, reduces its price, beginning
with the December number, from So
to IS year, from so cents to %
cents copy. This is the most note
worthy reduction in periodical liter
ature that has taken pIace-perhaps
that can take place. Magazines of
fiction and adventure, the illustrated
monthlys, were within everybody's
reach, even before the recent rcduc-
ton in the price of some of them.
But no reduction of the class of the
Forum has ever been sold for %
cents. THIS reduction of price puts
the Forum easily within the reach of
every reader who cares for it. The
December number contains sixteen
articles written by some of the best
writer's in the country. Address

Senator Camden says: 81 am
prepared to accept the tariff bill as 3
Democratic measure, and yet 1 sub
nit that if Nova Scotia coal is TO be
dumped free into New England We
should have the same privilege OF
dumping coal into CANDIDA. To state
the case more clearly, Nova Scotia
mines are nearer New England than
are ours, as our mines are nearer Ia
Southern, Middle and Western
Canada than are the Nova Scotia
mines. Therefore, why should We
not enjoy the same privilege in refer
ence TO Canadian markets as Cana
dian mines will enjoy in reference to
our own. Canada charges us tax
of GO cents per ton for coal. Why
not have an understanding with
Canada that if that country will admit
our coal free we will do likewise /?
That, it seems to me, would be a
fair provision
