The Postal Savings Banks rec

State in the Union, and partic-
ularly in the West have bee 1 meet

The money deposited in these
Banks, which are run in connect

place where installed, is not to
exceed $4,000 for each individual
and which draws but 2% to212%

An opportunity is also given
the depositors to invest in United
States Bonds which bear a very
low rate of interest
1t is considered a safe place to
deposit money Of small amounts.
Some OF our larger City papers
in commenting upon the problem
have concluded that there is no
harm done the Banking Institut-

cause OF these apparent inovat-

part OF our government. as the
money is turned back into the
channels OF circulation by Uncle

There should be no cause for
alarm by the people for fear oi

Banks SO far as that is concerned
as the State Banks have strict
regulations governing them and
and in very few cases does de-
positors loose their money, how

still more avenues Ofsafety if they
consider it as such.
A careful study of this propos

money thus deposited if placed
again IN circulation may go to
some Eastern Center and the
West be deprived ofthat w hich she
sorely needs for her development.
A very small interest is offered
and so far as the reinvestment OF

will probably make no better
choice of investment than a priv

If these Banks prove beneficial
to the Country then they should
be encouraged. but if they offer
no financial safety and gain in

they then become only another

SOME OPINIONS OF RESULT.


William H. Taft: I am greatly dis
appointed. l had hoped that reciproc.
ity would be put through to prove the
correctness of my Judgment that it
would be a good thing for both coun-
tries. 1t takes two to make a bar
gain, and, if Canada declines, we can
still go on doing business at the old
stand.
Sir Wilfrid Laurier: I gladly lay
down the premiership, a burden which
l have carried for Is years. We be-
lieved that in making the reciprocity
arrangement we had done something
which would be greatly to the benefit
of the people of Canada. The electors
have declared otherwise, and l bow to
their decision. I regret that we have
been unable to carry reciprocity, which
l still believe would have promoted
the material advancement of Canada
and would have promoted the growing
friendship between the United States
and Great Britain. However, the coun-
try has spoken. We must bow to the
inevitable, and I cheerfully do so.
Robert Laird Borden, leader of the
Conservatives: In rejecting reciproc-
ity, Canada has expressed her faith in
the development of Canada, which
she has pursued for many years.
The government, without mandate
from the people, undertook to reverse
that policy and upon submitting it's
action to the people, was defeated.
The verdict was in no wise dictated
by any spirit of unfriendliness to the
great neighboring republic. No such
spirit exists. 1t is my conception that
friendly relations a best be main
tanned if each country preserves com
plete and entire control over it's own
tariff and enters into no entangling
agreements which might impair and
affect that control.
James j. Hill - Reciprocity should
have won in Canada because it would
have been a good thing for that coun.
try. 1t would also have been a good
thing for the United States. It's bene'
fits to both countries cannot be fully
realized by many. Canada, next to
England. is our best customer. Last
year we sold to Canada about $50 pei
capita of her population and she paid
back to us in trade $40 per capita Of
her population. That the proposition
did not win in Canada perhaps is due
to the fact that there were people
there who do not see merits in the
measure. or perhaps there were some
in that country and in u own who
were Indifferent to the general welfare
of the two countries. AS to whether
the reciprocity pact will prejudice thu
reelection of President Taft, I do no
wish to be quoted.

Boy Fixing large. is Killed.

Moose Lake.-While Floyd Ireland,
aged Is years, son of H. Ireland of
this village, was adjusting a target
at which he and companions were
about to shoot, Victor King, aged IA
years., who held a small rifle, accident
ally discharged the gun and the Ire
land boy was shot dead. The King
bog ran to the village, a half mile
from the scene of the shooting, and
reported the accident. Medical aid
was sent at once, but it was found
that the bullet had entered the Ire
land boys back, causing instant death.

Conservatives made q great harvest
of ministerial heads; thirteen mem.
bers Of the Laurier cabinet sought re.
election and seven of them were de,
feated.
Makers Of Pact Defeated.
Minister of Finance Fielding and
Minister of Customs Patterson. who
made the reciprocity bargain with the
United States, failed to win their cleo
tons. Sir Frederick Borden, minister
Of militia; Mackenzie King, minister
of labor; Sidney Fisher. minister of
agriculture; George P. Graham, minis.
ter of railways, and William Temple
man. minister of inland revenue, also
went down to defeat.
The ministers who survive the land
slide are William Pugsley, of New
Brunswick. minister of public works;
Charles Murphy of Ontario, secretary
of state; Frank Oliver of Alberta, min.
lister of the interior; Premier Laurier;
Rudolphe Lemieux, minister of marine
and fisheries, and DR.. H. S. Beland,
postmaster general in the province of
Quebec.
The splendid majority of followers
obtained by R. l.. Borden in the Eng.
lish provinces will make him practi-
cally Independent of the French. ma.
tionalist group, for he has a working
majority without them. The effect Of
this will be to minimize greatly the
Nationalist party, which Henri Bour.
asa has been creating for eight years
! past.
The result of the election works so
| complete a disorganization of the Lib.
erals that the Conservatives probably
will remain in Office for many years
before their authority can be seriously
challenged. The former Conservative
government held Office for 10 years
and the Laurier government, which
has just been turned out. followed
| with Is years of power.
The verdict is looked upon as a
triumph for the cause of protection
and a victory for the manufacturers
of Canada, who openly and avowedly
were opposing the government because
they feared the removal of duties
upon natural products would be fol-
lowed by an attack upon the protec.
ton which Canadian manufacturers
have enjoyed for many years.
Laurier Expected to Resign.
Ottawa.-The result was a complete
surprise to both parties in Canada's
capital. The Liberals expected a vic
tory, the Conservatives did not hope
for the landslide which occurred in
their favor.
1t is expected that Sir Wilfrid
Laurier, the premier, will tender to
Governor General Earl Grey his resig,
nation within the next two weeks, al
though not required to do SO until de.
feated by an adverse vote in the
house.

Three Girls Drown.

Bayfield,, Wisconsin. Mary Hem

berg, all between the ages Of 16 and
10, were drowned at Houghton, Wis,
three miles from here. Annie Hen
derson, another member Of the party,
was the only one to reach shore.
They were out in a canoe when it
was, in some manner, overturned
about 200 feet from the land. All four
could swim, but the distance was too
great for all but Annie Henderson.
The other three we're found about
twelve feet from shore.

will be supported in parliament by a
working majority of members far
more than ample for his purposes.
Pact Not to BE Introduced.
The government defeat means that
the Fielding-Knox reciprocity agree
ment, ratified by the American con-
gress in extra session, will not be in
troduced when the twelfth parliament
assemblies next month, and that a re-
vised basis of trade with the United
States, looking to closer commercial
relations, will not be possible in the
immediate future. The Conservatives.
are committed to a policy of trade
expansion within the empire and a
closed door against the United States.
Although reelected in two constit-
uencies in Quebec, the defeat of the
Liberal party also means the retire
Laurier, who for nearly two decades
has directed the destinies of the Do
minion. Several times during the
bitter campaign the venerable pre-
mier said that defeat of his party at
the polls meant the end of his career;
that he never would consent to lead
a minority in opposition to a Con-
sentative government.
A Liberal membership of SO from
Quebec was cut down to SO, which,
taken alone, seriously threatened the
supremacy of the party. But it was
in Ontario that the Conservatives won
their greatest victories.
Spurred on by appeals to patriotism
and the cry that reciprocity Was the
entering wedge for annexation, the
! Conservatives swept nearly every
thing before them. Ontario, which in
the last parliament was represented
by IS Liberals and 81 Conservatives,
will send a delegation to the next
composed to 13 Liberals and IS Con
servatives. A notable feature of the
defeat was the opposition's capture

Landslide Is Unexpected.
The land slide was not expected by
either side. The Liberals were con
fdent that they would be returned by
the people with an increased ma
jority, for they believed that reel.
procity would be most acceptable to
the Canadian electors. While the
Conservatives claimed that they would
have a majority, they did not expect
that it would be so large or that the
general verdict of the country would
be given so decisively against the
government.
They feared that reciprocity would
prove popular with. the farmers of

men of the maritime provinces, and,
while confident that they would win
. the cities, they were dubious as to the
result in rural constituencies. How.
ever, in Ontario especially, the agri.
cultural vote went almost solidly
against reciprocity, and in the mari
time provinces it did not prove to be
the popular issue expected.

Cement Talk No.7

Newspapers print near
ly every day the story of
some fire disaster, involv-.
ing the complete destruction
of great property values and
sometimes the loss of human
lives. The annual fire losses of tho
United States are measured by tho
millions; in fact, it is stated that over
two hundred and fifty million dollars
worth of property was wiped out by fire in
the United States last year. While it is true
that the precautions to prevent fire and fire
fighting systems are often inadequate, tho
main trouble lies in Jfimy, nonJ6r1pvog
building construction. Experience has proved
that 6reproof construction is both practicable
and economical. In some industries 6reproof
building is compelled by law. Reinforced
concrete has come to the front as the most
important agent in building against FIRE. Tho
use of cement in building is becoming moro
and more common, due to its 6reproofness,
durability and economy. When building any
thing from the back porch steps to an Office
building, concrete construction may be safely
adopted. The use of Univer5ai Portland
Cement in the concrete will insure cement of tho
best quality possible to manufacture. UniUe,-
sal is handled everywhere by the best dealers.
