CHINESE AND STEAMSHIPS.
Two Subjects of Grave Import to
the Dominion.


the Dominion.
OTTAWA, Ontario, June S.-The Domin-
Ion government will shortly ask Parlia-
ment for vote of $4,000 a year as a
subsidy for short line OF steamers on
the Atlantic between Southampton and
Quebec
The New Brunswick members are up in
arms against the proposition and on Satur-
day populations from Board Of Trades of
New Brunswick. Nova Scotia and Prince
Edward Island will interview the Govern
ment to ask for an abandonment of the
scheme.
Some ten days ago word was received
by the Dominion Government from the
imperial authorities that they would con-
tinue TO employ Chinese labor on fortifca-
tons now in course of construction at
EsQuimalt. B. c. This information was
In response to a letter addressed by the
Dominion Government, at the request of
Colonel Prior, member for Victoria, B. c..
submitting that there was plenty of white
labor to he obtained in the province. The
letter from the imperial authorities gives
no reason Tor the continuance of the en-
ployment of Chinese labor, but simply
states, as the British Government is pay
ing for the Notifications, it will continue
to employ any labor which it sees fit. This
/ is considered by all but ultra Tories here
to be a slap in the face TO Canada.

CHEAP POSTAGE STAMPS.
Why Some UncanceIed Stamps Sell
for Less Than Their Face Value.

Why Some Uncanceled Stamps Sell
for Less Than Their Face Value.
In the show window of almost every
dealer in postage stamps on Nassau street
may be seen complete sets Of stamps
issued by the different Governments Of
South America uncanceled and marked
for sale at an exceedingly low figure.
Frequently the face value of the stamps is
far in excess of the price mark. Many
thoughtful people who used 10 collect
S. amps when they were boys wonder how
New York dealers can sell genuine
stamps cheaper than the stamps could be
bought in the country that issues them.
The explanation is very simple. Most
of the Central and South American Gov
ernments have their stamps engraved In
this city. The engraving companies make
an agreement with the Govern ments by
which they furnish them for almost moth
ing as many stamps as they want on con-
diiOn that as soon as tbs issue is retired
the eDgravers have the privilege OF print
ing as many more stamps as they choose
to sell to dealers. The stamps are genuine
in every respect, being printed rom the
same plates, the only difference being
that they never saw the country they puTr
port to come from. For this reason many
collectors prefer Cancelled stamps for their
aibums.-NeW York Sun.
