No Hope for Canada but in Annexation.

We published the other day letter from
Mr.. FRANCIS WAYLAND GLEN. in which
the writer undertook to prove that the
Canadian Pacific Railway would be bank
rupt II 1t relied upon Canadian traffic alone;
and that, to make both ends meet. it was
dependent upon the privilege granted by
tho United States Government. under the
bonding system. Of diverting American
traffic to Its lines. The statistics brought
forward not only answered the writer's
Immediate purpose. but they exhibited in
the clearest light tho extraordinary back
wardness OF the Canadian provinces COM
pared with tho contiguous parts OF the
United States. and the hopelessness OF any
Improvement SO long as they retain their
present connection with Great Britain.
1t was shown, for instance, that the area
OF British Columbia is nearly six times that
of the adjoining State OF Washington:
moreover. the population OF the former re-
Rion In 1871 was 10000 while that OF the
latter was but 23O0O On tho other hand,
While In 1891 tho population OF British Co
lumbia had expanded only to $1,000, that OF
Washington had increased by 1890 to
$4,000, and is now considerably greater.
Let us now pass eastward to the second
section OF the Canadian Pacific. which ex-
tends from Banff Hot Springs to Winnipeg.
adistance OF 922 miles. The area tributary
to this section. including Manitoba and
live organized Territories Of Canada. is
about 100000 square miles. or sixteen times
that OF the State Of New York. Yet tho
population OF the whole region In 1891 WAS
only 100000. or one person to four square
miles. 1t must not be inferred that the set.
tlement of this part Of British North America
began at much later period than did that
OF the contiguous States Of the Union. Tho
contrary In the case. A colony OF well-to-do
families was planted near Winnipeg as early
AZ 1911. Other colonies were soon afterward
sent out from England. and were provided
with lands In the valley Of the Red River of
the North. Many ysars elapsed before the
settlement OF Minnesota began. In 1877 St.
Paul had only three families OF white in
habitants. The number OF newcomers In
is49 was only nincty-iive. and the total pop
ulation OF the Territory Of Minnesota was,
at that datc, legs than 5000. What Is tho

No Free List-No Favoritism.

Our esteemed contemporary, the Collector.
objects earnestly to an impost exacted by
the customs authorities:
"such levying a duty antique bronze
like the little Eros imported by Mr.. Henry @. MAR
auAxp Ia simply robbery It is even more considering
Mr. MARauASDs standing as q collector"
Too much cannot be said in praise Of Mr..
MARoUAND's taste and knowledge Of art in
all It's departments; but the duty on the
antique bronze Is all right. AS the laws
now stand. Mr.. MARoUAND has to pay
because he Imports single specimen Of an
article Of pure luxury. which is not in
cluded In the free list: and accordingly he
is required to contribute to the revenues Of
the country.
But as the case will be when the great
ruling principle Of the Chicago platform is
enacted into law. and we have tariff for
revenue only. the importer OF such articles
may have to pay more money in the form
Of duties than he pays now. Then the cir
cumstance that they are works of art. like
ly to improve the taste and educate the In
telligence Of our citizens who see them. can
not be taken into account. If they should
be admitted free. or II a relatively low rate
Of duty should beimposed upon them. some
rate In consequence. and thus one man or one
set Of people would be favored at the eS-
pense Of others; and the very evil which Is
denounced and condemned In the pro-
tecuve system. would be renewed and per-
petuated In the name OF reform. Instead Of
the revenue tariff promised by the Demo-
cratic victory Of 1892, we should still have
protective tariff. with nasty. varnish OF
lies and humbug added.
One horizontal rate OF duty Of IS or 80
per cent. ad valorem. applied on all i'm
ports. whether objects Of art or objects
OF necessity. articles OF food or articles OF
decoration. raw materials or goods OF the
most complete manufacture. things for the
pauper or things for the millionaire. will
just about fulfil the promise made by the

II the reports OF the cholera In Naples
which are now printed there can be trusted
the ratio OF mortality must DO far higher than
tho ordinary. We can hardly believe the re-
turns for the week ending July 20 In that
week. according to the figures published by

registered cases OF cholera and 1877 deaths
We should certainly think there must be mis-

idea conveyed in Flammarion's exciting novel,
"Omega: The Last Days of the World" has
interviewed number Of the leading men in all
professions as to what they would do if science
were to predict tomorrow that the end of the
world would arrive within the next thirty days
The answers are various and curious, and
heighten the interest which is felt in the sec
ond part of Flammarion's great novel, which
appears in the May Cosmopoli Titan. 1t is q
question which everyone will find interesting
to ask of himself: What would you do if with
