The Last Red Coats.

The last troops of the British army
have left Halifax for home. The event
Is a step in the evolution of the rela-
lions of motherland and colony that
will create some feelings of regret.
The presence of British regiments long
ago ceased to be necessary in Canada.
It is true. either from an imperial or a
colonial point of view. The departed
corps will doubtless fill a more i'm
portant place in the scheme of general
defense in their new stations, and
Canada should be able to care for her
own strategic positions. Yet the de-
parture. breaking n chain Of service
that has lasted nearly a century and a
half. will to many seem like breaking
n link in another chain. 1t will be
long before those who FASTENED it will

OUR RAILWAYS.
America Lead. the World In Num-
hers and EMciency.

That America leads the world in the
number and efficiency Of it's railroads
Is, OF course, common knowledge.
AT the close of the last century
North America had no less than 22O,-
$50 miles of track In operation, while
the total for Europe, Asia. Africa. Aus
tralia and South America was only a
tri1e greater, about 100000 miles. The
United States then had q mile Of road
for every 1913 inhabitants. Europe one
for every 2,267 and British India one
for every 12,4O0. This country invent
ed the parlor, sleeping ana dining cars,
the pressed steel freight car, many of
the best features of the modern loco
motive, the air brake. the automatic
coupler and a host of related devices,
and it runs the fastest long distance
trains.
One of the most marvellous develop
ments In the whole railroad system is
that which has taken place at the head
Of a train in the last seventy years.
The best locomotives today are about
four times as long as the De Witt Gin
ton Q831), a foot or two higher, have
drivers that are seventy-two or even
eighty inches in diameter instead OF
only tifty-four and carry POO pounds of
steam instead of only eighty. But
these figures afford no idea of the real
gain that has been effected In power.
Relative to the other features, the boil
er has grown abnormally, while the
smokestack has actually diminished in
size. In the De Witt Clinton the smoke
pipe was as big as the boiler. One does
not realize what modern science has
done for this type of engine until he is
told hat it has a pull of from sixteen
to thirty tons as against 919 pounds.
A locomotive built not long ago for
the Santa Fee road weighed 1887 tons.
Treverhick's engine. built just a cen
fury ago. weighed five. ~Stephenson's
Rocket QS..9l was several hundred
pounds lighter. Even between 1850
and 1860 the average weight of a pas
senger locomotive was twenty tons
and of a freight engine thirty. At the
close of the fiscal year there were in
operation in the United States 195,SS7
miles OF track, or within $4,000 miles
of the total for North America.-New

AN AHn-ucENsE CAMPAIGN
Meetings Will be Held Mex
Week to Campaign Against
License Question.

A meeting of thirty citizens was
held in the rooms of the Anti-Saloon
League a few days ago TO discuss the
question of making a campaign
against the issuing of licenses in this
city. 1t was agreed in that body
that a campaign be instituted and
the following statement was pre-
pared and was handed to The Repub-
lican for publications.:
The Anti-Saloon people OF Mitchell
do not intend that the election upon
the license Issue shall 90 against
them Ivy default this year. so they
have determined upon Il brief but
active campaign against the liquor
business
Several public meetings will be
held, the particulars OF which will
be published soon. The city hall has
been engaged for April IL, IL, ID, Is.
One night of the series will he de-
yotea TO the business mans point of
view. In addition TO a principal ad-
dress of 25 minutes to he delivered by
a competent business man there will
be 10 three minute talks from repre-
sentative professional and business
men, setting forth their reasons Tor
hostility to the liquor traffic. An
other evening will be filled up by
young men and representatives from
the college, the time being divided
in much the same way as at the
meeting conducted by the business
men.
The ministers of the city will have
full charge of the Sunday meetings.
The liquor men are not to he eX-
cluded from a fair and impartial
hearing. A challenge is hereby ex-
tended to them to produce a champ
ion of their cause, to whom 30 min
utes will be accorded at one of the
meetings especially planned for this.
Surely il saloons should be tolerated
in Mitchell it ought to be possible to
frankly and openly tell the public
why. II this challenge is not accept
ed it will be taken as a public con-
fession Of the nntenable nature of
the arguments otherwise advanced
ON behalf OF the saloon. They are
asked to respond through the Anti
Saloon League rooms or the public
press, not later than April 10.
These meetings will have no refer
ence whatever to personal politics.
Excellent music will be furnished.
Men, women and children are COZ
daily invited to attend.

low to Measure the Distance From
Witch IL In Reelected.
There is scarcely anything in nature
that eXerts the fascination ovcr every
one alike than does an echo. and com
mon as it may become there is always
a feeling of mystery about it that holds
us as with Il charm. OF curse we all
OF a sound from some object. as the
side of a house or a rOck or Il hill, but
often we cannot tell how far away the
object is that causes it. Here Is a way
to tell every time:
Kolding IL watch in your hand, shout
a single syllable. as "llo!" or Hal"
and count the number of seconds from
the time you shout till the sound comes
back to you. Now. sound travels at
the rate of 1.125 feet a second, so the
number of seconds that elapse multi
piled by 1.125 will give the distance in
feet travelled by the voice in going to
the object and back to you again, and
one-half of that number will be the
number of feet away that object is
OF course the object may De only a
few hundred feet away, in which case
the sound will come back in less thar
a second, but You may determine the
distance. nevertheless, by calling a
single syllable-"Ha!"-and calling it
again as you hear the echo, not before
or after 1t, but just with 1T.
With a little practice you can do this
Repeat the call ten or twelve times,
counting the seconds between the first
call and the last echo. Suppose, for
example. that the time is seven sec
onds and that you called the syllable
ten times. Then each echo tool seven
found in the same way as before, is
about 394 feet.-EXchange.

Dear Sir: There are several ways
of cheating in milk. An old-fashion-
ed way is to water it. Nobody waters
it now. a better way is to take out
tie creain-rich milk with the cream
taken out is as good as poor milk

But we needn't 70 into particulars.
You don't rob your milk and your
customers.
Paint is as easy as milk to cheat

TRAINING SCHOOL FOR COOKS
There Should Be One Such School in
Every Home.

We copy the following from long letter
sent by housekeeper in which complains: ls
made OF the scarcity Of domestic servants the
high wages demanded and the poor quality
of the service:
Forty years ago things were not like this.
wages not high aud service was good. DO
you not think that there ought 10 be schools
for training domestic ser vants?"
Certainly ly, madam. there should be one
sucn school in every home.
No matter wheibe girls dwell In luxury or
not, they ought to know how To cook and sew
and wash and iron and keep house. We all
have contem pit for the young man OF wealth
who grows up without occupation and Win
no capacity to do anything. Yet that Ia the
way In which most American girls are being
reared, even In the ranks ofthe wage-earner.
Every mother now seems TO think 1t demean'
ing fo- her daughter to learn 10 do hard WORK.
She expects her to marry man who Will be
able to provide plenty OF servants. And II
sh ia so fortunate. how can she expect good
service when she cannot do the work herself
nor explain how 1t should be done?
If the average man knew as little ABOUT DIS
work as the average woman does about house
" ork, the CO unlry would soon be In q state OF
chaos We men have plenty OF opportunities
TO learn better methods; but they seldom ac-
cept them. No woman Ia competent TO run
a househoid unless she knows every detail
OF the work and can perform IT herself.
Would th Q Carnegie Steel people employ
president or superintendent who did not
now his business?
And now, dear madam. and all women who
read this: When on Thursday your servant
goes out-if you have but one do you get up
q nice dinner for your family and see that
the service is excellent? Do you not rather
use all the scraps and leftovers and do as little
as possible? Ia the table ever property set so
that you do not have 10 get up and run to the
china cIoset? Are you not proud OF the
meals and the service which you give the
husba nd who works for them d?
Arn't you ashamed that you cannot do the
work we'll or that you will not? In the va
cation period our husband has TO do extra
work for those who are away. Duea be do IL
In slovenly manner? Does he' not do the
work right, when your cook is away? Why
should you not make study of your work
and benefit by the sclentl advantages which
have been provided 10 recent years?
We advise you 10 cease comp aiming and
learn a little more about your bust ness Your
husband will appreciate II. II you have
daughters to marry off, make them prime
