The wild winds blow Ger snow-clad plains;
The rivers are fettered in Icy chains,
And swift night falls ere daylight waueS,
In the North, by the Ice-king bound.
Wild is the storm on Eastern shore,

Suiian the wintry surges roar:
The mercury's down TO the basement floor;
Grim Death knocksa at the poor mans door,
In the East, when the storm Is around.
In the Sunny South" fierce blizzards blow,

The sleigh bells ring DER the frosty snow;
The merry skaters swiftly go

Some time ago II was noted tn these
columns that curious .ariE question
had been submitted TO the Canadian au-
thorities- TIE Niagara Electric Fsswer
Company proposed 20 transmit esecsrfc
power across the river by cattle for use
In lighting and other purposes. and the
question came MP whether or not II
would be dutiahle. The comptroller OF
cssstezns 1T Ottawa has recently handed
down q decision that electricity II frn-
ported into Canada for power purposes
Is subject to duty; that II comes under
the head Of unenumerated articles and
must pay % per cent tariff This de-
cision win necessitate the placing OF
valuation on horse power In accordance
with the price paid for 1t. A contract
Tor 1000 horse power had already been
made The decision appears . little
strained. especially an natural gas con-
veyesi into the United States from Canada
Is not subject 10 tariff charges.
