Canadian Trade.

The trade between the United States
and Canada continues to grow, and to
grow largely at the expense of Great
Britain, in spite of the preferential tariff
on British goods and in spite of the fail
ure of the scheme for reciprocity be-
tween this country and Canada fall
ure for which Gov. Foss somehow man
ages to blame this country, which pro-
posed the scheme, instead of Canada,
which rejected it. Last year 65.5 per
cent of Canada's total imports were
from the United States, and 20.3 per
cent. from Great Britain. British trade
with Canada has steadily lost ground,
especially in iron, steel and other metals
and machines and machinery; and the
trade lost by Great Britain has not been
divided among other countries, but al
most entirely absorbed by the United
States.
In its annual report, just issued, the
British board of trade frankly declares
that this is a most serious matter from
the British standpoint, and urges that
the leading British manufacturers and
merchants send representatives to Cam
ada, and keep them there, to fight for
the trade that the neighboring and more
enterprising Americans are winning.
Thus the Americans are given warning
of a more determined competition in the
great and growing Canadian field of
trade. Our business men are not likely
to be caught mapping, and Canada, as
il gets the profitable habit of doing more
and more business with this country,
is not likely to be weaned away from it
by appeals of empire. Boston Herald.

AMONG NERMONI'S NEWSPAPERS.
In its issue last week, the Woodstock
Spirit of the Age made announcement
that publication of that paper will be
discontinued after July 20, next, and
that the publisher will devote most of
his time to the business of his job print
ing work, although monthly publica
ton will be turned out, the name of
which will be "The Elm Tree Monthly

the weekly edition of the Windsor con-
temporary will be like the loss of an

the editor gravely put it, during the
past seventy-three years, having been
founded by Charles G. Eastman. The

Another newspaper change in Vermont
of interest is the removal of that an

mission to set an s,000-gallon oil tank
in the ground at the rear of their store
on North Main street. Alderman Ban
croft moved that permission be granted
Later, his motion to rescind the origi-
nal motion was carried and the request
Of Smith & Cummings was referred to
the fire committee to investigate and
report.
Alderman Dawson thought that the
city hall was being closed little too
early and little too often, referring
to the custom Of locking the corridors
on Sundays, for the convenience Of the
public. Some means should be devised
for placing the lavatories at the disposal
of the public late in the evening and
again on the Sabbath. The building be-
longed TO the city, he reminded the
board, and the public should have free
use Of it when desired. Alderman Brown
thought that people who chose to enter
the lavatories late at night were the
kind of people who frequent such places
only because they afforded solitary
places to drink. The matter was re-
ferred to the property committee.
Street Car Service.
The clerk reported telephone con.
versation with Manager c. f. Millar of
the Consolidated Lighting Co., in which
the latter stated that Supt. d. s. Lara.
bee of the Tenney corporation was un.
able to attend the alderman's meeting.
He had previously promised to report
on the alleged shortage of passenger ac-
commodations on the intereity traction
line. However, Manager Millar had said
that an extra car had been put in the
service last Monday for the accommoda-
ton of workingmen. Owing to the I'M
settled conditions on North Main street,
where the paving job is under way, Man
ager Larabee had been unable to ascer-
tain Just how much the passengers were
benefited thereby. No action was taken
on the communication, although the
board had the satisfaction of hearing
Manager Larabee quoted to the effect
that he was conducting thorough in
vestigation of the situation.

been unthinkable from the first that
such strike should take place, strike
involving % railroad systems and $4,000
miles of track throughout the eastern
and middle states.
The conference at Washington yester-
day settled the question as to a speedy
amendment to the Erdman act The
amendment of this law was, in fact, the
chief point at issue, for both the railroad
managers and the men themselves were
ready to arbitrate their differences If
the machinery OF arbitration could be put
in motion. Thus far the Erdman act has
provided machinery OF mediation that
has worked fairly we'll, but it has
stopped at mediation. The question in
the present instance is not mediation
for the parties concerned are willing
enough to get together-but arbitration,
that is, process of settling the terms
on which they will continue their rela-
tons as employer and employee.
The Erdman board of three members
is considerably too small to be thor
oughly serviceable and satisfactory as a
body of arbitration, and the plan to in
crease it to six or nine men has been
urged. The amendment which will in
crease the board viii now be passed by
Congress without delay. For this much
the country may be truly thankful As
to the outcome Of the arbitration itself,
that is another story. The railroads
contend that the amount of increased
pay asked by the men will reach grand
total of Sl7,000,000 yearly, and that they
simply cannot afford 10 pay this in
creased sum. That remains for the en-
larged board of arbitration to determine.
But one thing is certain. II the decision
is in favor Of the men, the increase in
wages will come out OF the pockets of
the public Boston Herald.

How to Make Farm Life More Attractive.

The best thing that can be brought
about for the American people, says the
Spokane Sqokesman-Revi in SEN
sible talk to agricultuTists, is the ele-
walton of farming TO such esteem and
enjoyableness that the attractions Of
the city shall stand second to those
of the farm and the advantages of ur-
ban life shall not excel those OF rural
life.
The way to reach this rewarding goal
is to socialize the country communities
and to fill the farm house full of modern
equipment and modern pleasures for the
women folks.
Something has been done in this d.
rection already, but not enough, as is
shown by the complaint of soil-tiller
in Southern Minnesota. who wrote to
the dean of the agricultural college of
that state saying that he could not get
a wife.
AT last accounts, tired OF cooking his
own meals, mending his own socks and
sewing on buttons, he had quit farming

greatly by the lack of information forth.
coming from the investigation, although
there are some interesting revelations
which were not known by the general
public. Doubtless part of this failure
to secure more extended information was
due to the reealcitrant attitude of the
New England Telephone & Telegraph
Co., which was the chief object of the
special inquiry as it is by far the larg-
est public service corporation OF the sort
in Vermont. However, enough was re-
vealed to enable the state to take ac-
ton if it is deemed advisable under the
conditions; and the matter has been put
squarely up to the public service com
mission for the issuing Of such order as
may seem reasonable. We should say
that the report of the special counsel,
as far as it goes, reveals enough to JUS
tify active steps being taken by the
state OF Vermont.

The people of Concord, n. H., are
pleased that the city will not lose the
New England Granite works, whose plant
was almost wiped out by fire short
time ago. And well they may be pleased
because there are few, if any, lines of
occupation in which the workmen are
paid so uniformly good wages. Will
Jamestown would rejoice too, If it were
to be assured that the large granite

Belgian Trade Unions in IoIa.

The past year has been one of most
active trade union development and ex-
pansion. For some years past a number
of trade unionsts have endeavored to
instill the more modern methods of the
trade union movements and propaganda
into the Belgian organization. Special
journeys were undertaken by certain
trade union officials for this purpose, in
Berlin, for example, and lectures on
trade union subjects were given by Ger
man and French speakers in the various
towns. This and other work has brought
forth good results in all the different
sections of the workers movement. One
has only to look at the trade unions for
another example of this. In the last
year alone, the formerly loosely feder-
ated organizations of seven different
trades were centralized into national
unions, and are striving for higher con-
tributions towards strike funds, and
financial support. The trade union COM

that only five federations remain which
