NatiUe Born Canadians
in NeU Army Are Fep

Toronto, Ont. - Charges are made
that many native-born Canadians are
not enlisting for service in the Euro
pean war. One estimate goes so far
as to say that of the first contingent
no fewer than 85 per cent were British
born, most of whom came to Canada
within the last five years.
This estimate is combated by many,
among others by the Canadian life
insurance companies, who patriotically
have decided not to enforce the war
clause in their policies, which entities
them to impose a super-premium Of
$50 thousand. Instead of doing this
they are carrying all policies in force
at the time of enlistment at the old
rate, thereby substantially increasing
their liabilities without any compen-
sating revenue. They say their lists
of policy holders show large proper
tion of Canadian born.
However, the highest estimate of
Canadian born in the contingent is 40
per cent, 60 per cent being British
born, although according to the last
census the latter number only II per
cent of the population.
That serious situation is indicated
by the circumstance is admitted by
Canadian patriots. In explanation II
Is argued that many Of the British ar.
rivals had military training, and fur
ther, having severed home ties, they
were freer to respond to the call Of
war. 1t is admitted that this is only Q
partial explanation and that possibl,
there is a more serious underlying
cause.
1t has also been pointed out that few
French Canadians enlisted for the frst
contingent. The incident illustrates
how slender is the bond of sentiment
that now connects New France" will
old France. Nevertheless, in demon
stration of loyalty to the British EN-
pire, an entire brigade of Frencl
Canadians is being rapidly organized
and will be Incorporated in the secont
expedition.

"Ostend awoke Thursday morning
: with the resigned expectation of some
catastrophe. The previous night
thousands of refugees assembled In
the hope of leaving by a morning boat,
! but no boat arrived.
n "Some hundreds already had taken
refuge in fishing smacks alongside the
quays to escape to France or England.
The remainder crowded together in
groups on the quay, looking anxiously
for something in the shape of boat.
''The town was deserted. Not a
single person traversed the streets.
The shops were all closed and their
windows boarded up. No food was to
be obtained"

Washington, D. C. = Wealth will
come moresquickly to the young farmer
who embarks in the business of raising
hogs than any other branch Of farming
he may choose. E. T. Cash, of st.
Louis, made this assertion before 700
members of the American Meat Pack
ers' association attending the ninth
annual convention. There is more
money in raising hogs than in other
branches of farming, Mr. Cash said,
because they can be fed more cheaply
and the demand in the markets Of the
world is daily increasing.

German Army Appears
Near DuRkirk on Coast

London-That German army is be-
tweens sFurnes and Dunkirk and nearing
the latter place, which is on the Eng.
lish Channel, less than so miles from
the coast of Dover, is reported in a
Rotterdam dispatch from a German
source to the Daily Mail, under date Of
Sunday night.
A dispatch to the Mail from Dun
kirk, dated Sunday night, says that
heavy firing has been heard near Dun
kirk since O'Clock Sunday morning.
Severe fighting is taking place. 1t
is supposed that destroyers or gun
boats. are being used in the canals.
Berlin - All signs indicate that q
tremendous change is impending in
the protracted struggle in Northern
France, where for weeks the hostile
armies have faced each other in such
strongly entrenched positions that
neither has been able to advance, ex-
cept at enormous cost.
The present effect of the mutual
flanking operations has been to extend
the battle lines without either sides
finding a weak.spot.

TEXAS REGIONAL CITY.

Some OF our diligent Representa-
tives in Congress are telling us that
the only way for Texas to obtain one
of the regional banks is for all to unite
on one city. That will be impossible
in the first place, and 1t ought to be
impossible. The location of these in
situations is not to be a matter of
political pull or favor. We doubt II
one Texas Congressman has consider
ed the factors which enter into city's
eligibility for one of these banks, and
there is not the slightest reason why
any Texas Congressman or the entire
delegation should be onsulted.-Hous-
ton Post.
We would have little respect for the
commissioners who are to choose the
regional bank cities If they would yield
to any political influence. The united
appeal of all the people of Texas
should have no effect upon them.
Their selections are to be made from
the standpoint of commercial service
without regard to State lines. Argu-
ments to avail must show the quail
fications of the city applying and all
that citizens can do is to present the
facts.
Congressman who urge Texas cities
to get together are merely seeking to
avoid the political embarrassment of
advocating one city in preference to
another.-Fort Worth Record.
The Eagle does not take il that the
Texas Congressman in giving the ad-
vice they did, meant there should be
any political pull used in securing the
location of one of the regional banks,
but rather a business pull. Texas
Congressman realize the great benefit
1t will be to Texas to have one of
these banks, and that the State may
be sure to get it, they urge the bank
ing interests to get together Our
Congressman are cognizant of the fact
that he bankers of Texas absolutely
know what city in the State is best
fitted and best equipped for such loca-
ton, and that patriotic motives will
actuate all to unite ON this one city
in order to secure the prize sought.
To be sure the commissioners whose
duty it is to locate these regional re-
serve banks will not listen nor be in
fiuenced by any political pull, but
united recommendation from the
banking and business interests of
Texas for one certain city would have
great weight with the commission
when it holds its sitting in Houston.
Such course would almost beyond
question secure one of the banks for
Texas, while if five or six cities appear
before the commission in a scramble
for the location, the probabilities are
Texas would lose out. This is evil |

THE SOURCE OF PROSPERITY.

The corn growers of the Middle
West, the cotton growers of the South
and the sugar growers of Louisiana
are feeling the effect of the reduced
tariff, but we hear no grunt of salts
faction from the consumers. Sort
Worth Record
The Record forgets, as do many
others, that the corn growers of the
Middle West, the cotton growers of
the South and the sugar growers of
Louisiana, are both the producers and
the consumers. There can be no pros.
perity in this country except when the
products of the farm bring high prices.
None will deny but hat the farm is
the source of all our wealth: then II
stands to reason that the higher the
price of the products of the farm the
greater the wealth and the greater the
prosperity. When farm products are
high, labor is high, everything else is
high, money is plentiful and the peo.
pie are prosperous. When farm pro.
ducts are low, wages are low, there's
no money in the country, business is
stagnated and it is almost impossible
to make dollar in any kind of bust.
ness or profession. Give the country
high priced farm products and other
things will regulate themselves.
