THE DAILY EXAMINER.

JULY 29, 1892.

Notes and Comments.

—The steady drain of gold from the United States to Europe is causing more or less uneasiness among our neighbors as to the monetary future: In less than two and one-third months the total gold has decreased nearly $30,000,000, the gold owned $14 800,000, and the gold balance, exclusive of the hundred million reserve, has fallen from $25,815,040 to $11,071,257. At no time since resumption has the bal- ance been so small, end it is steadily de- creasing.

—The Montreal Gazette remarks that there is significance and a meral in the fact that the American public men most active in pressing forward measures of re- raliation against Canada are the friends and sympathizers of the Liberal party. Me. Hitt, who is ready to father any scheme likely to injure the Dominion, and as he thinks, bring about annexation, waa the ally of the Liberal party in the unrestrict- ed reciprocity movement, and there is good reason to believe that he and Sir Richard Cartwright perfectly understood each other im the game.

—The new British House of Commons contains 21 bankers and financiers, 144 bar- risters in and out of practice, 18 brewers and distillers, 2 builders and architects, 15 colliery proprietors, 8 diplomatists, 9 civil and marine engineers, 10 farmers and agri- culturirts, 83 landowners, 10 iron-masters and metal merchants, 15 labor representa- tives, 57 manufactures, 10 doctars, 55 gen- eral merchants, 1 ex-minister of religion, 35 newspaper proprietors and journalists, 34 peers’ sons and brothers, 18 retired bus- iness men, 19 ship owners, 21 svlicitors, 4 stockbrokers, 9 university professors, 53 naval and military officers and 13 members uncilassed.

—lInstead of sending Mr. Cleveland a formal letter of his nomination as candi- date for the Presidency. the Democratic

plan, and it worked well There was a great notification meeting at the Madison Square Garden on Thursday evening last, at which eighteen thousand per- sons attended, or tried to attend. They came from all parts of tha “It was,” says the New York Herald, ‘‘the first time in the history of the country that the candidates of a party have been pub- licly notified of their nomination.” Of course Mr. Cleveland accepted the position given him by his party.

—The withdrawals from the Government savings banks, which have been large and continuous since the establishing of the three and a half per cent rate of interest, are now gradually falling off. In june the amount at the credit of depositors in the Dominion Government savings banks ae- creased from $16,683,626 to $16,669,204, which small reducticn would probably be more than made up by the excess of de- posits in the postoflice savings banks. This is probably the turning of the tide in sav- ings bank deposits. When the rate was reduced to four per cent., large withdrawals followed for a time. Then the deposits began to gain on the withdrawals, and con- tinued to do so until the Government was offered more money at four per ceut. than it could afford to take.

— Father Burke gave his impressions of Canada to a reporter of the Vancouver Daily Telegram as follows :—

** This country has only to be seen,” said Father Burke, *‘ to arouse in one’s bosom the most supreme contempt for its hireling decryers. Its future seems to me and to ell our pariy a great and prosperous one, should we only go on in the lines we have been following, and frown down effectively political croakers. Our greatness as a nation, unlike so many other countries, © ahead of us, and he who will not see it shuts his eyes to evidences the most convincing. It will take centuries to discover all our varied treasures and develop them as they should be developed. This work under a wise policy must build up and enrich a Canadian Dominion. We have all that makes nations powerful, and why will we not be such? It isallin our own hands, and from what I have seen of Canada, from Prince Edward Island to Vancouver, I am profoundly impressed with its extent and its resources, and satisfied that its citizens are awake to the value of their heritage, and resolved to develop and defend it.” ‘*These sentiments of the reverend and learned gentleman,’ remarks the Telegram, ** were shared in by the whole party, and will find a willing echo, we are sura, in every loyal Canadian heart.”

To GAIN the public confidence is essentisi to business success, and it can only be gained by a steady course of faithful dealing with them, It is by this course that Messrs. Tuckett & Son have secured the great success ot their ‘Myrtle Navy” tobacco, This con- fidence is not only a source of business to the firm, but also a source of economy which the consumers get the benefit of. The merchant never loses a moment of time in examining the quality of the tobacco. The name fixes the quality as absolutely as the mint stamp fixes the value of the guinea, It is not even necessary for the commercial traveller's trunk to be burdened with a sample of ‘Myrtle Navy.” All his customers know what it is, and know in an instant when it has been supplied. There isno room for any dispute ahout it. No waste of time or postage in writing complaints about it. These msy look look like trifles to the uninitiated, but they save money, and enable merchants to perform the work of distribution at the emall:st possible cost. They are part of the reasons why the finest quality of tobacco grown ca

be sold at so chep a price.

The Old Log House.

Tue following lines, showing the difficul- ties and privations encountered by the early set’!ers of Canada and the United States, will be found at the present time, when, on the eve of celebrating the arrival of Scottish pioneers in this Island, exceed- ingly appropriate. They were written by one of the pioneers :—~

Many years have fled, great changes wrought, Since your forefathers crossed the main,

In hopes to make t xemselves a home

Oa highland, swamp, or plaio.

Tree efter tree, from towering height, Fell crashing to the ground.

Grief changed to joy as work proceeda, Wives, children, stood amazed,

To see those laid trees lifted up

And a snng house shanty raised.

Their household furniture was plain— No sofa, black or drab;

Their easy-chair was four round legs Driven in a cedar slab.

No table with mahogany top,

Nor slab from marble rock; Contented they part »ok their meals Just from a home-made block.

No church to edify the old,

Nor schools to teach the young; The praiees of assembled throngs, They seldom heard them sung.

No doubt, withia those wildwood homes Some did God love and fear;

In course of time His servant came, And preached four times a year.

Through cold and stormy winter months Their chopping work was done;

In summer all was logged and cleared, Beneath a burning sun.

Young noble sons of noble sires,

With all life’s comforts, wealth

And lards, think how your fathers toiled ‘or what you now enjoy.

Your stately house of brick or stone, Shade trees to keep it dark;

Your father’s first—a low bog hut, Covered with birchwood bark.

national committee adopted this year a new} Your pleasant home affords you much,

Both eye and taste to charm, But don't forget the brave old man Who bought and cleared the farm.

Don’t snap and snarl at the old man, If with you he remains,

union. | Remember, what you aow possess,

Caused all bis aches and pains.

Bestow on him a rich reward Before he pass away.

And as his life's biood ebbs away, Hold up bis drooping head,

With gentle hand and loving heart, O soothe his dying bed,

And when the grave hides him from view, Still keep his memory warm,

And with it keep the old homestead,

Your father’s dear bought farm.

The Rate of Taxation.

(Montreal Gazette.)

A striking faet in the trada returns of the Dominion for the last fiscal year is the decline in the customs taxation. What- ever criticism may be passed upon some details of the National Policy, it cannot be charged, as presently applied, with im- posing any onerous burden of taxation upon the people, and least of all upun the farming class. The abolition of the sugar duties eut down the revenue from that source by $3,000,000, and to that extent directly benefited the consumers of Canada, who are, also, exempted from taxation upon tea and coffee. The amount of duty collected in 1892 upon an import trade of $110,476,444 was $19,122,314, or 17 3 per cent., a rate which can hardly be deemed excessive, but it is by measuring the taxa- tioa per head of population that the best idea of the tariff burden is formed. Our population, according to the census, is 4,900,000, so that the customs income of 1892 represented $3.90 per head. Con- trast that rate with preceding years :—

CUSTOMS TAX PER HEAD.

IR75... .cceves $3.95 SEDs ope svhsse $4.74 EBT o cco ccncce 3.12 SS > cies cee 5 02 BETS. 202. sevee 312 Mi ios seks oe 5 01 oe ee 5.23 Deeb ove sccees 484 BOER esecs ee. 4.22 BOERS otdeusie 3.90

It will be observed that, except in 1877 and 1878, the rate of customs on tariff taxation was less last year than for a very long tame past, and less than at any previous period since the introductiva of the existing fisca: system; and as respects 1887 and 1888, it is to be borne in mind that the revenue of those years fell below the expen- diture, and necessitated an increase of taxation in order to maintain the credit of the country. A customs taxation of $3.90 per head of popu- lation is certainly not excessive, nor can any real or fancied lack of individual prosperity in the community be fairly attributed to this impost. The fixed charges of Government necessitate the collection of some twenty million dollars annually from customs duties, and no matter what the scheme of the tariff may be, taxation to that extent will fall upon the people. What is greatly to the credit of the Government is that it has practiced so close an economy in expenditure, and has so carefully avoided assuming new liabilities, a+ to have been able to throw off $3,000,000 of taxation Jat one stroke, without fimperilling the credit of the Dominion or embarrassing the public finances.
