A MEMORIAL OF GRANDEUR.

The memorial which has been erected
by enthusiastic Germany to commemo
rate the Battle of Nations.' fought
at Leipzig, is one of stupendous gran
deur and imposing dimensions. The
monument was erected upon hill 100
feet higher than the level of the sur
rounding country. The monument it.
self is 800 feet in height, so that its
summit arises 400 feet above the plain
1t is of majestic proportions, it has
heroic figures encircIing the dome, and
altogether it is magnificent specimen
of artistic and mammoth construction.
The monument so erected is to COM
memorate the defeat of Napoleon by
the nations in his final grand maneuvers
which defeat sent him 10 Elbn, a hun
dred years ago. 1t was crushing de-
feat. and all Europe reioiced and had
part in 1T.
The chagrin of the French at this
pompous memorial and the enthusiastic
celebration of its completion undoubt-
edly added TO the German enjoyment of
the memorial itself and of the jubila-
tious connected with its dedication. It
is certainly memorial Of the greatest
distinction. and well worthy of the ad-
miration and pride of the powerful Ger.

THANKSGIVING DISCUSSION.

There WAS decision, which did
sitiou to have Thanksgiving Day
this year celebrated on Wednesday, No.
vcmber 10Th. because of tho fact that
that date will be the fftieth ami
versary of the delivery Of Lincoln s ad
dress at Gettysburg. The suggestion
of this change was by reason of a
patriotic event which is well worthy OF
commemoration; but that commemora-
tion should be by civic observance, and
founded upon basis altogether differ
ent from the foundation upon which
Thanksgiving day is observed.
Thanksgiving day is continuation
of the old scriptural feast of the In
gathering, joyful celebration which
originated in the dim ages of the past,
and which has been continued in
various forms by all peoples It IS the
joyful observance of the fruition of the
years harvest on the completion Of
the gathering and the storing away of
food supplies for the winter season. 1t
has nothing at ali to do with civic
events. II is an economic ceremony OF
thankfulness, and in the past ages II
has been very largely considered a re-
ligious ceremony. It is to consider
able extent a religious ceremony now
in that the people are called upon by
proclamation TO meet on that day in
their several places of worship and
give thanks to Almighty God for the
bounties Of the season.
The proposition, therefore, to change
the date of Thanksgiving from the usual
harvest feast, traditionally observed by
all peoples on the completion of the
storing away Of the food supplies of
the year, is not likely to be seriously
considered. since the basic ideas which
govern Thanksgiving Day cannot be in.
vaded by the intrusion of any other
idea whatever. The people of the
United States will hold to their old
fashioned Thanksgiving Day this year
the same as before

curately measured The discovery OF
coal In immense quantities IN Alaska
was an immense blow 10 these pes
simistic estimates And now on tne
further exploration of the Canadian
Northwest wc have even heavler
blow inflicted upon that sort OF fore
cast. One of the most recent showinGs
of coal deposits comes from Edmonton,
in Canada. II indicates that Alberta $
total coal reserves arc greater than
those OF all Canada outside. The hgures
given for them seem TO be beyond all
reason. but doubtless they are founded
upon approximate measures. The esti-
mate is that Alberta contains coal re
sources that will reach l,015,039, ,O0o,ooo
metric tons. The totnl resources OF the
world are now estimated at 496,Si6,-
10000 tons of anthracite, 3.9O2,9 ,944,-
100000 tons of bituminous, and $685.
763, ,000, 600 tons of -bituminous and
lgnites. Asia is said to lead in anthra-
cite coal and North America and South
America in bituminous.
The United States leads in annual
coal production in 445,000,000 tons
Great Britain comes next, with 264,-
100000, and Germany third, with 22l,-
600, 1000 tons.
Details are given of the extraordinary
coal deposits Of Alberta, which show
tho estimates to be well founded, and
tho probability Of actual yield, accord
ing to the figures, quito acceptable.
In view OF these enormous estimates
Of coal deposits, and in view of the
fact that the coal deposits in various
parts Of the world, rs in South AmeFi-
ca, are hardly yet explored, and may
vastly increase the estimates made,
there does not seem to be any par
ticular reason to fear shortage of
coal for the next ten thousand years.
In Wow of the fact that the combined
estimate on anthracite, bituminous, lig-
mite, and other forms of carbon de-
posits total 1885,, ,593, ,O0oo 900 tons, it is
seen that the future is absolutely Sc.
cure on this point. even though the
enormous production now enjoyed
should be many times multiplied

CANADIAN UELPFULNESS,

A recent disnatch from Edmonton IN
the Province of Alberta, Canada, states
that the provincial legislature at its
present session will be asked to vote
81 .000,0 for the construction OF
farmers elevators, $l,000,000 for tele-
phone extensions, and $1,600,o00 for
public improvements. These items make
up the proposed loan of s3,6oo,ooo which
Premier Sifton has given assurance that
he will ask from the lower House OF
tho Provincial Legislature,
Premier Siftou makes a showing il.
Illustrating the growth of the province,
stating that in 1902 the revenue of the
provinces Of Saskatc chewan and Alberta
was $637, ,234 Four years later, the
first year Of Alberta s separate govern
ment, its revenue amounted to $l,9l6,-
0s1. while for the year 1913 the esti-
mated revenues, apart altogether from
loans, were s5,272,175, and after the ex-
penditures a surplus of $10s,l45 would
remain.
These figures show not only mighty
advance in Alberta, aided very largely
by American colonization and American
millions, but they show spirit of help
fulness and support from the public
treasury to the colonists that is not only
admirable but unprecedented in the
world. It is also good, far-sighted
policy, in stimulating development and
advancing tho day when the colonist:
will add strength to the province.

HARASSED CHINA.

Accounts from China show that the
government there is much troubled by
the floating Of counterfeit paper money
among the Chinese people. The charge
is made that entcrprising Japanese have
counterfeited Chinese currency with
such success that enormous sums have
been circulated thereby. Manila
newspaper reports that 'hundreds OF
thousands, if not millions, of dollars
of these notes have been printed and
circulated in revolutionary centers.
1t is one of the great problems to
provide money for the necessities Of
the people and Of the government.
China is poor, it has been robbed by
the powers shamelcssly, and is always
IN financial trouble This financial
trouble Of China is, in fact, greater
trouble even than the revolutionary
troubles II is cruel for any people to
take advantage of the Chinese sltua-
tion by this form Of swlndling. 1t Of
fcrs n dilemma which is hard to solve.
Until regular, orderly government is es-
tablished. it will he hard to suppress
this counterfeiting and tho wholesale
circulating Of bogus money. But
it is necessary to have money in order
to establish the sort of government that
would stop this swindling. That money
is not to be had And so China is in
difficulty, the solution OF which is not

TO COOK SEAGULLS.

1t appears that the scarcity Of meat
and the high prices Of it have started
wits TO work TO extend the ediblcs for
mankind in a good many curious direc.
tions. Horse meat has been proposed,
the eating of dogs has been recon-
mended, and even sparrows are sug-
gested as meat for those who are un-
able to buy meat at the shops, as good
and delicate fare.
Now Comes Captain Johnston of the
Revenue Cutter Service. who urges the
utilization Of seaeulls as a good, tasty
food, He notes the great abundance
