Traffic Increase in Western Canada

A remarkable illustration Of what may
be accomplished under the pressure of
stern necessity is afforded by the report Of
the traffic department Of the Canadian
Pacific railroad covering the operation of
the line up to Nov. 81 It is shown that
since the harvest began the road has car-
ried 81, 172,000 bushels Of grain out of the
Canadian northwest. A comparison with
the previous year will show what this
means, for in the same period in 1901 the
quantity moved was 1895, 900 bushels, the
volume this year representing gain Of
S,7770 900 bushels. From the Fort Will
liam terminus the road shipped last sea-
son 9,702, 900 bushels, and in the same
period this year 12,395,O00 bushels. This
increased grain tonnage has been Il the
leading factor in the gain Of S1,763,255 in
gross earnings Of thesroad since June Il,
and so has been very good thing for the
company, but if it has benefited the rail-
road 1t has likewise benefited the farmers
and merchants Of that country and In a
less direct manner the American capital
engaged in Canadian Northwest develop
ment
In 1895 there was good crop above the
line and it was handled expeditiously and
very satisfactorily. The succeeding
years made5it more difficult for. the rail-
road company to give the most efficient
service, not only because the crops were
increasing from year to year. but also be-

reason to believe that the average yield of
wheat in the United States can be brought
up to forty bushels an acre; it is now
fifteen. The state of Washington now
averages twenty bushels to the acre.
The average in England is forty bushels.
The average yield Of corn to the acre will
yet be fifty bushels. So far, great as has
been our increase in population, our agri-
cultural productivity has outstripped it.
A writer in the Independent estimates
that while our population doubles every
thirty years, our production of food
doubles in a period of from twelve to fif-
teen years. So the probabilities are that
for many years to come, we shall go on
being the granary of the world in an
increasing proportion.
With this mighty increase of wealth and
economic strength there should go moral
and intellectual development of COR
responding proportions. It should be the
aim of America to avoid all ruts and keep
forever in the van of human progress in
every department Of thought and action.

Narrowness in CONGRESS.

Many Americans are disposed to criticize
the Cubans sharply for their delay in
agreeing to a reciprocity treaty and for
the scant respect they show to the Platt
amendment. For our part we think the
Cubans are doing precisely what should be
expected of them or any other self-re-
specting people under the, circumstances.
Whatever of delay there may now be,
whatever Of difficulty in getting the Gu
ban to meet us half way, is chargeable to
the insurgents of the last session of con-
gress who tried so hard to accomplish the
impossible feat Of turning sectional poll
tics into craftsmanship. 10
"A year ago the Cubans, in their great
distress; were willing to give us almost
anything we might ask. For a small re-
duction in the tariff on their goods they
would have given us the whole of their
market Of the value of $6OOOO,O0 = Now
the situation has changed SO that they are
in a position to make bargain, and they
are doing it, In the meantime Europe
has stepped in and taken quite a, little of
the trade that ought to be ours. And

need be surprised to see our senate fritter
away months in accomplishing nothing ex-
cept the irritation of the Cubans.
The story of our recent trade relations
with Cuba is the old story of our COM
mercial treatment of Canada over again.
Narrow men and narrow views have ruled
when the demand was for broad minded
men and large views. -
Still another test of the senate will come
up in the Hay-Bond treaty Of reciprocity
between the United States and New
foundland. This is critical treaty, one
that great craftsmanship would ratify in a
second. 1t is certain that our senate will
approach it in no spirit except that of the
pound-foolish penny wise. The prompt
and enthusiastic adoption of the Hay-Bond
treaty would not only give us q. valuable
trade and tend to draw Newfoundland
into closer relations with us, but would
put the Canadians into mood to consider
reciprocity In a friendly spirit If we ever
get around to propose it. 1t is not yet
appreciated by our congressman that the
United States must now look outward as
well as inward, and that policies that were
we'll enough twenty years ago must be re-
placed with others. s< - - ::
