Ouebec's Enormous Birth Rate.

DR.. Osler says you can't diminish the
birth rate of Quebec. In the year 1890
the late Hon. H. MERCER, then Prime
Minister of the province, had a law
passed by the Provincial Legislature
granting 100 acres of the public lands
to each father and mother of twelve
living children, and last year a return
was made to the House of those who
had taken advantage Of this act. This
return shows that there were more
than 3400 families of twelve living
children in the province, while some
were boasted of seventeen, eighteen,
nineteen, and n even ran up to TWEEN
ty-three.
According to the last report of the
provincial compiler of vital statistics,
that is to say, for 1903, 6O,419 births
were registered, which gives a birth
rate Of 36.75 per 1000 of the popula-
ton.

Are the Packer Receiving Fair Play,

Are the Packers Receiving Fair Play
When the Garfield report on the
business methods Of the packers APP
peared. after eight months investiga-
ton, it was severely criticised and
roundly denounced. After three months
of publicity it is significant that those
who attempted to discredit it have
failed to cOntrOvert the figures con-
tanned in that exhaustive document.
The public is beginning to notice this
omission, and the feeling is rapidly
growing that the sensational charges
out Of which the Beef Investigation"
arose were without foundation. If the
official statements of the report are
susceptible Of contradiction, a good
many people are now asking why the
facts and figures are not furnished to
contradict them.
The truth seems to be that most of
the charges contain unfounded sensa-
tional assertions. a fragrant example
Of this appeared in a recent article in
an Eastern magazine, to the effect that
forty Iowa banks were forced to close
their doors in 1904 by the Beef
Trusts manipulation of cattle prices"
Chief Clerk Cox, of the banking de-
partment of the Iowa State Auditors
Office, has tabulated the list of banks
given in the magazine article and has
publicly denounced the statement as
utterly untrue. He gives separately
the reasons for each failure mentioned
and officially states that they have
been caused by unwise speculations and
by reckless banking methods. 1t may
be well to suspend judgment upon the
packers until the charges against them
are proved.

An Oakland lady who has q taste for
good literature, tells what a happy
time she had on 1.-The Road to Well
Vile" She says:
Il drank coffee freely for eight years
before l began to perceive any evil eff
fects from it. Then l noticed that l
was becoming very nervous and that
my stomach was gradually losing the
power to properly assimilate my food.
In time l got so weak that l dreaded
to leave the house-for no reason what
ever but because of the miserable con-
dition of my nerves and stomach. l
attributed the trouble to anything in
the world but coffee, of course. l
dosed myself with medicines, which
in the end would leave me in a worse
condition than at first. l was most
wretched and discouraged-not 80
years old and feeling that life was a
failure!
Il had given up all ho,e of ever en-
joying myself like other people, till one
day read the little book, 1.-THE Road
to MELVILLE" 1t opened my ewes, and
taught me a lesson 1 shall never forget
and cannot value too highly. 1 imme-
diately quit the use Of the old kind of
coffee and began to drink Postum Food
Coffee. ! noticed the beginning Of an
improvement in the whole tone of nv
system, after only two days use Of the
new drink, and in a very short time
realized that l could so about like
other people without the least return Of
the nervous dread that formerly gave
me so much trouble. In fact, my nerv-
disappeared entirely and has
never returned, although it is now a
year that have been drinking Postum
Food Coffee. And my stomach is now
like ~iron-nothing can upset it!
Last week, during the big Conclave
in San Francisco, l was on the go day
and night without the slightest fatigue:
and as l stood in the immense crowd
watching the great parade that lasted
for hours, | thought to myself, This
strength is what Postum Food Coffee

just Discrimination in Railway Rates.

All railroad men qualified to speak
on the subject in q responsible way
are likely to agree with President Sam
uel Spencer, of the Southern Railway,
when be says: There is no division of
opinion as to the d~esirability of stop
ping all secret or unjustly discrimina-
tory devices and practices of whatso-
ever character"
Mr.. Spencer, in speaking of unjust
ly discriminatory" rates and devices,
makes a distinction which is at once
apparent to common sense. There may
be discrimination in freight rates
which Is just, reasonable and impera-
lively required by the complex COM
mercial and geographical conditions
with which expert rate makers have to
deal. To abolish such open and honest
discrimination might paralyze the in
dustries of cities, States and whole Sec
lions of our national territory.
This distinction between Just and
unjust discrimination is clearly recog-
nized in the conclusions of the Inter-
national Railway Congress, published
yesterday:
Tariffs should be based on commercial
principles, taking into account the special
conditions which bear upon the commercial
value of the services rendered. With the
reservation that rates shall be charged with
out arbitrary discrimination to all shippers
alike under like conditions, the making of
rates should as far as possible nave all the
elasticity necessary to permit the develop
ment of the traffic and to produce the great
est results to the public and to the railroads
themselves"
The present proposal is, as Mr.. Walk
er D. Hines, of Louisville, showed in
his remarkable testimony the other
day before the Senate Committee at
Washington, to crystalize flexible and
justly discriminatory rates into fixed
Government rates which cannot be
changed except by the Intervention of
some Government tribunal, and by this
very process to increase "the tempta-
ton to depart from the published rate
and the lawful rate in order to meet
some overpowering and urgent COM
mercial condition."-New York Sun.
