so strange that our hearts culver at

The transgression of Gods law

death; and ever since man trans.

Why DO the authorities in New
York object to Jack Johnson engaging
in a contest in thar states Por time
it was thought thar because Of the
race question it was done; bus now the
same opposition is brought to bear
when Johnson is asked tc box with
a Negro. Can it be that the white
men of New York are afraldA that the
amalgamative portion of their popula-
ton would become so enthused over
the appearance Of this black hero

LESS DRINKING IN IRELAND.
Increase in Temperance Due to Better
 Living Conditions in Country.

DUBLIN-One of the most notable features in the new Ireland is the increase of temperance and the great advance in the standard of living. The two things go together and it is hard to say which is the cause and which the result
 Old fashioned temperance reformers used to maintain that prosperity was the result of temperance, but the new school, which is especially strong in Ireland, holds that the desire for strong drink disappears with the advent of more nourishing food, better clothes and more comfortable housing.
 It is only fair to say that the Irish man has borne an entirely undeserved reputation as a drinking man. Hard drinkers there were, and are, in Ireland in plenty. but the countrys consump- tion of alcohol per head never has equaled that of Scotland or England
 Coincident with the growth of tenn perance has come a demand for better housing. This has been met in the country by the wiping out of thousands of thatched novels and the erection of neat brick built and slate roofei labor CTS cottages The money for this is supplied by the government and ad- ministered by the county councils, and the cottages are let to the labOrers at fifty to seventy-six cents week, which pays fair return on the investment
 Much remains to be done in the towns, but cities like Dublin, Belfast, Cork and Derry are waking up, and plans are being made for wiping out slums and building decent flats and i cottages. A good start has been made in Belfast, where whole streets of slums have been raZed and replaced by flats owned by the corporation and let at moderate rents, which just pay in ! tereat on the capital and cost of admin istration.-From the Chicago Tribune

LONDON-A check for s25,869,- 860 The amount almost takes ones breath away. Yet a little piece of paper representing that vast sum was handed by Sir Owen Phillips, chair man of the Royal Mail Steam Packet company to Messrs. Donald, Currie &, Go.
 The handing over of the check rep resented the last stage in the acquisi- ton of the Royal Mail Steam Packet company and Elder, Dempster x Co. of the UniOn- Castle line.
 The check-probably the largest ever drawn by public company in the city of London-was signed by the chair man of the Royal Mail Steam Packet company and the secretary, and was drawn on the Bank of England. In return there will be handed over a cer- tificate for all the 141,S41 ordinary shares of the Union-Castle company save few hundred, the owners of which have refused to sell Those own CTS who did sell receive $160 per share and the money will be duly distributed among them by Messrs.

DECREASE IN CORPORATE EARN
 lNGS

It is expected that the receips from the corporation tax for the current fiscal year will be nearly a million less than the collections from the same source up to June 30, 1911. This indicates a decrease in corporate profits during the later period of about $115, ,000,000. It does not in- dicate any very material contraction in the volume of business done. AL though the gross receipts also fell off the decline was not considerable, and the difference exhibited chiefly re- fleets an increase in the rate of wages and the cost of supplies. This com ment applies with an especial force to the railroad companies They have been obliged to pay more for every thing they had to buy, and. as they have not been permitted to make any corresponding increase in their schedules, their profits have natural ly suffered.
 That is one reason why the iron and steel trade makes such a bad | showing Eevery one knows that for many months this great industry has been very much depressed. It has 1 been just scraping along, living from | 1 stances paying out of the surplus 1 which had been accumulated in more
 prosperous times dividends which had not been earned. That, it will be re-
 membered, is what the United States l Steel Corporation did with regard to /, it's common stock at it's last quarter ly declaration, and it is not surpris- ing to learn that, according to the figures given by Royal E. Cabell, commissioner of internal revenue; the decrease in the corporate earnings of iron and steel companies fell of $47,-

 ting down their expenses, the iron
 and steel trade suffers first and
 worst
 All the same, the 1 per cent tax on
 corporate profits will yield over $28- 00O 900, which constitutes a substan-
 taI and extremely desirable contri
 button to the national income. It is l to President Taft exclusively that the credit for discovering and tapping
 this source of supply belongs. and il
 is rather surprising that so little is
 being said about it, either by himself
 or by his supporters, during the cam
 paign that is proceeding. Roosevelt was constantly laundering against the , corporations. but he never did any thing to them that hurt. Taft has , said little and done much. Perhaps that accounts for some things which on their face, are almost incompre hensible.- e.-Philadelphia Enquirer.

The Watermen's company has the distinction of being one of the oldest of London companies and it's activity was shown as long ago as the days of King John. wien it opposed the building of London bridge Even in those times the charges of the waternen were strictly regulated, the fare for convey ing a passenger ocross the river being one farthing, or, if he were a hOrseman, one penny. The fare from Gravesend to London was one halfpenny, and in 1293 two watermen charged with eX- torting double that amount from passenger were severely reprimanded and ordered to find a bond of forty shillings against further like offense.- From the London Chronicle
