skitc got, loose there is no hold.
| ing him. lie is like tho proven
bial sailor on horseback, he will
ride TO the -, well no, per-
haps he wont t, but wo all wish
! that ho would. Stranger than
| the mere utteranccs of the 7 B is
| tho readiness with which his
blather fnds its way into print,
as though some angel from heaven
had come along to direct this uni
verse and it behooved every edi-
tor under the sun to give the
world the benefit of his words of
wisdom.
This mornings Advertiser"
gives us an excellent sample of
I + B and his opinions. We are
told Just what we want and just
what we should do, and all there
is left now is to 60 ahead and do
it. Some of us have been here
more than n week and we thought
we knew something of the coun-
try, its possibilities, and its re
quirements, but it has remained
for the p b, through the instru-
mentality of the Advertiser" to
set us all right, to show us where
we were wrong, and to tell us
what sort of a country we
have been living in, and we only
had to pay five cents for the ad-
vice.
I'm the first place Eve are told)
this is a first class sanitarium for
the sick" Heretofore We have
been under the impression that
sewerage impregnated soil was
not usually considered the best
kind to erect ones abode upon.
Then we are informed that here
the bird plumes its wings upon
the leafy-bough, tuning its native
woodnotes wild, and scars up to
heaven, ETC.. etc., whereas our OPT
Mon of the singing and soaring
qualifications of the Mynah have
never amounted to q very great
deal. Next comes the gratifying
piece of information that cit is of
no consequence who compose the
personnel of the Government" In
our miserable ignorance we have
been going all wrong in our eff
forts to secure an honest and we'll
disposed personnel. The next
piece of advice is really good and
worth taking to heart; it is to "es-
tabIish commercial intercourse
with such countries your market
best suits and pays the producer
best" This should certainly be
done and without delay. 1t would
seem that we have not yet found
the best market for our very varied
products, and we think the least
the Legislature can do before they
adjourn will be to appoint COM
mission for the purpose of ascer-
tanning where we can get the best
price for what we export. The
next announcement made by the
P. b. really startles one. We are
told "Millions have been spent on
sugar and you are only on the
threshold of its life as a profitable
investment" and 1.-THE coffee in
dustry has passed beyond the un-
certainty of experiment and is
now an established and most pro-
titable source of revenue" What
Joy for the sugar and coffee men
and ali Those Interested in those
industries. The sugar men now
know, for certain, that what
they have made in the past is not
circumstance to what they are
going to make in the future. You
sugar barons are only on the
threshold of your good luck; all
you have to do is to walk right in
and pick it off the outside of the
sugar bags. AS for the coffee men
how delighted they will be to
know thaS they are no longer ex-
perimenting and that they have
now, one and all, ian established
source of revenue" They will
also be glad to hear, on the un-
doubted authority of the p. b.,
