He has induced the French deputies
to approve the surrender Of the
French shore of New Foundland and
to approve the British occupation

no minister of France could have

In talking few days ago with
large wholesale merchant, he said,
this country was bankrupt" l cited
him to the recent statements pub
liShed by the State from bankers and
manufacturers from all parts OF the
state. He said he did not care if
they did, it was fact. He said he
would admit that conditions were
better in some respects. that people
were better clothed, better fed and
perhaps in some instances better
housed. but they (his hrm) had more
money owing to them at this date,
than in any year since they have been
in business and that they found it
harder to collect their bills. He
said one cause was the immense
traffic in high priced stock, (mules,
horses, etc. increase in the quantity
of fertilizers used at an advanced
price, etc. He did not offer a solu-
ton, but it seems to US, if this is the
case, it would be wise to use our old
mules another year and make as
much manure at home as possible.
This to Our mind is the thing to do.
Make our own fertilizers as far as
possible and buy as nttle as possible.
We need good stock to make good
crops and do good work. What do

shows that the percentage of murders
in this country is larger than in any
other civilized nation except Russia.
Facing this problem of prevailing
lawlessness. he writes: ut is easy to
generalize and to turn your back and
say, i am an optimist,' or after all,
this is the best country in the world. ;
But man is not necessarily an optim-
ist, / don't believe it's on fire after all
Nor should we take all the credit FOR

great new continent-this wealth of

people inherited in day. We have

Gus wealth, of making a great and law
