Cost of Living in Canada.

Cleveland Leader
A few weeks ago the United State
consul at Kingston, Canada, declared
in a report to the Department Of Com
merce and Labor, that the cost of foo
staples was at least as high in tina
city as it was In American towns
like size near the border. For 3
large part OF the year the cost of liv
ing was greater. he said, than in thu
United States.
Now comes a series Of reports upon
trade and industrial conditions ar
Canada from American consuls a
various places. All Of them have
much to say of the growth and pros.
perity of the Dominion and it's many
sided progress. Not one indicates ~
any way that he considers livins
cheaper there than IL is in the United
States. Two consuls, one in Hamil
ton and the other at Sault Ste. Marie
Ont.,-the Canadian Soo'-assert
that the cost OF living is higher in
the cities where they are stationed
than it is in their own counry.
II does not appear that with suct
conditions existing in Canadian towns
close to the American boundary, this
country has anything to fear from :
flood of cheap Canadian products
when reciprocity shall have become z
fact. On the contrary. It IS quite
certain that many Americans will be
astonished TO find that the effect O
that change upon general business
conditions will be extremely mild

JERSEY CITY ELECTION.

A government T was defeated at the special cleo
ton held in Jersey City the other day. But the
new plan poed large vote, larger, we think. than
its friends expected.
In Jersey City is one Of the most powerful polit-
cal machines in the country, something similar 70
Tammany Hall Jersey City, Hudson county
is the Democratic stronghold of the state 1t seems
that all the influence Of this machine was exerted
knock ont the proposed commission system, and
the Democratic machine workers probably received
much assistance from the Republican machine men.
although as the city is usually heavily Democratic,
it would seem that the Republican would support
anything that promised a change The independ-
euts on occasion, however have been able to carry
the city.
The total vote was light. which again shows that
not so large a vote is poed when abstract aues-
tons are involved when there are candidates
on ticket The vote for the commission system
was ISIS and against it l3O6s.
The chief lesson of the Jersey City election is
that very large percentage Of the voters favor a
change They arc willing to take the commission
plan, with its admitted defects the best thing
in sight There is municipal unrest. 1t may be
stayed when there is efficient partisan administra-
ton but the handwriting is the wall and all
who run may read that the days of partisan NUM-
cipal government in American cities arc numbered.

ONLY FOR MEN OF MONEY.

TT NDER the publicity bill as to campaign ex-
~ penses which has passed the Senate at Wash
ington it is figured that a candidate should not be
permitted 10 spend more than ten cents on voter.
The Senators we're stirred by the statement of
the expenses of Senator Ike" Stephenson whose
election in Wisconsin admittedly cost him more
than 100000, This struck the other Senators as
very high figure, and they therefore fell in line
with the advocates of publicity.
But is not even the sum permissible under the
bill large, and is not man poor in money prac-
tically debarred from aspiring to the honorable
Office of Congressman or United States Senator?
How can man of limited means, no matter how
great his ability may he. become a candidate for
Senator or Representative If he knows that some
with barrel and privileged under the law TO
spend ten cents a voter for expenses may run
against him? The man whose means limited,
If he wishes 10 aspire 10 a scat in the lower or
higher house, must secure money from his friends
to pay his expenses and il is like this that
the interests" get in their work enters
Congress under obligations, more or less, TO them
unless he is able 10 take the money out of his
own pocket to pay the ten cents head
This whole theory Of candidates contributing
large sums for campaign purposes is entirely
wrong and does not aid good government
A class distinction is at once created. You are
too poor to aspire 10 be a Congressman Sen

The day may come when the Government itself
will provide for the necessary expenses of cam
paign or the plan suggested by Senator Bourne
Of Oregon Of having "workedup" campaign
may be given trial. 1t is sad commentary on
the concern the voters take in government that
