Unparalleled Wage Advances.

Those Republican authorities who
are declaring, as did Senator Sherman
tho other day, that business has re.
vivcd but slightly and that we cannot
expect good times until we get back
to high protection, are finding no
consolation from non-partisan trade
papers.

Commerce and Commercial Bulletin

paper of its kind in America, said ::
at must have occurred to n consider

they were panic stricken when the CD :
ldomic of wage increases swept over
the country last spring and summer.
Probably there were never before SO
mapy advances within 60 short q
time. Certainly there mover were so
many cases of increase made yolun-
tarliy by the manufacturers.
1t Leaves the party organs to dis
pute over the number OF establish
ments where wages were raised, but
adds that "the increases were from

ally much more, and they certainly
reached the greater part of the per
sons employed in the iron, cotton,
wooden and boot md shoe industries. 4"
Lower duties seem to have hurt
nothing except tho feelings of high
tariff editors and manufacturers who
object to paying higher wagcs-nota-
bly, the protected ones.

Canadians are fond of ouolifv,no

Canadians are fond of qualifying the
expression Northwest Territory with
the adjective GLORIOUS. This aspeet
oil the Lanl of the AIuskeg, however,
appears to the New York Sun to bo
largely tradition. 1t is a district of
much rain, many swamps, little sport,
and semi-starvetion. This was the i'm.
preston that H. Somcrs Somerset
bBMned 'fr0Ht t osr rom the Hudson's
Bay Territory through Pine Pass in
the Rockies into British Columbia.
He expected to find July, August and
oeprember good months in the North
west. But rain was incessant. the
camps had often to be made in boos.
or pools OF water, and snow, sleet and
frost added to the miseries OF the party.
Mosquitoes and bulldog flies, tho lat.
ter drawing blood freely, added to tho
manifold vexations of life until tbe
frost appeared. AS for gamo the
wapiti has faded out; caribou and
moose havevanished even black tailed
deer are scarce. There is only small
supply of grizzly bears. Tho Cree
and Beaver indians have cleared out
most of The game. 1t is expected that
the Hudson Bay Company will soon
have very few skins to collect and viii,
have to abandon many of its posts.
Nobody knows what will be the future
of the vast and forbidding country.
Under these circumstances it can
readily be seen shat both settlers and
sportsmen should hesitate bcforo tack

Manufacturers Like Free Wool.

One of the effects of FREQ trade in
wool is witnessed in the expectation
OF considerable quantities OF the
American clip. Under McKinleyism
American manufacturers could not i'm
port the hest varieties of foreign wool,
while American wool was kept out of
foreign markets. But now there is
no donbt that foreign manufacturers
will become acquainted with the good
qualities of many varieties of Ameri-
can wool. At the same time, Ameri-
can manufacturers will continue under
free trade to import the finest foreign
fleeces. Should the wool duties be
restored they will stop importing all
but the coarsest class, and largo part
of their manufacturing will stop with
it. 1t is magnificent fact that the
manufacturers are not asking for q re-
vival of tho wool duties. After while
they will summon up sufficient resolu-
tion to protest against policy which
threatens so much detriment to their
Observation-Disclosures Record.

to discover the ring. The other day
Mrs. Pippert dug some potatoes in her
garden. and while pecling them for sup
per the knife struck something hard in
one, and to her establishment, on cut
ting into the potato, she found her

Training Carrier Pigeons for War


The Russian military authorities
have lately been giving special ntten-
ton tic the breeding and training of
carrier pigeons for war purposes.
Lieutenant Biglow, the chief trainer
of these aerial war messengers, few
days ago started twenty eight pairs of
carriers from Luga to st. Petersburg.
ght pairs reached their destination
III forty-five minutes, four pairs i'll
sixty-fve minutes, and the remainder
at intervals during tho day. One
bird only was missing, and had prob.
ably become the prey of n hawk. At
distance of fifty-nine versts (about
forty miles) from Moscow. thirty-four
carrier pigeons were, on the same day,
started singly on homeward flight to
the old capital. They all reached
their destination safely, but the aver
age time occupied was six hours. Ac-
cordlng to these experimental results
it can scarcely be said that Lieutenant
Biglow's training is as yet an entire
success. A regular pigeon post is to
be established next year between Mos
COW and acknowledgement during the
All-Russian exhibition OF the latter
place. = London News.
