NORTHWESTERN TRADE VOLUME.

The great barometer which indicates the volume Of
production and consumption, well the volume Of
trade and distribution of products for the Northwest is
the 500 canal.
The progress and development of the Northwest are
shown most clearly and conclusvey the record of the
500 canal for 1902, with vessel tonnage of nearly 3d.
100000 compared with 100000 in 1900, 5000,
900 in 1890, and less than 100000 in 1880.
1t hardly possible, and yet is fact that the
vessel tonnage of the Northwest via the 500 canal has
multiplied I6-fod in years 4fold in years. and in
creased nearly SO per cent in two years, until is now
treble that of the Suez canal

Senator Has Scheme to Make Nom
Support Law More Effective.
The fear of having the husband who
willfulIy neglects to provide for his
family sent to the state prison will no
longer stand in the way of the abused
wife if the bill introduced by Senator
Wilson is passed by the legislature.
The bill provides several amend
ments to the present non-support law,
the principal one being that it makes
failure to support a wife or wife and
family misdemeanor during the first
six months of such neglect, and thus
permits the wife to make an attempt
to secure the recognition of her hus-
band without sending him to Jail for
any considerable time. If the husband
refuses to be reformed in six months.
then his failure to support becomes a
felony.
The amended law would also make
the prosecution Of the accused party
not the difficult task that it is at the
present time, as it recognizes the wife
as competent witness. The punish
ment for the misdemeanor is to be
not more than 500 fine or more than
ninety days in Jail.
