NOTES AND COMMENTS.

—Mr. George Juknson, the Dominion Statistican, advocates the inclusion of the British West India Islands in the Dominion of Canada. This proposition was discus- sion a decade and « half ago by the press of eastern Canada. It is still within the range of practica) stateemanship. We agree with Mr. Johnson and the St. John Sun that such a union would be mutually beneficial.

—Ruasia is preparing to celebrate the centenary of her great poet and novelist Alexander Pushkin, who waa born in 1799 and was mortally wounded in s duel in 18- 37. He represents more than ove side of Russian life; ifin his earlydays he was exiled to Beasarabia for his Liberalism, he diet while holding the official position of historiogragher wth a salary of 6,000 roubles. The Russians are rightly proud of his literary gen us,and he has been a fertiletheme for biographers and critics. More than four thousand books and eseays have been written about him, and tbere can be no doubt thai thia number, ade~ quate as it mey e¢em, will be greatly in- creased by the celebration of the bun~ dredth anniversary of his birth, It is pro- posed to place a national monument over his grave and to add tothe memorial ha)! that bears his name at Tabelensk.

—The Canadiav Grocer maintains that there is a guod thing in reciprocity for the United States. Canada can show that even uoder present conditions the United States has every reason to cultivate Cana- dian trade. Look atthe record in round numbers, of the past five fiscal years :

— Bystander in the Farmer’s Sun states that in a seventy mile walking race in Germany the vegetarians have shown a remarkable superiority in endurance over toe eaters ot meat. There is nothing new in this. Extraordinary journeys are made by the Hiadoo psianquin~bearer, whose only food is rice. There is probably a gradual tendency on the whole to vegetar- ian diet. Itdoes not appear that animal food is absolutely essential to any function of the human body or brain. No man did & better day’s bodily work than the British farm laborer when be had no meat but a Asete of bacon. No man ever did a greater

e@™mount of brainwork than a monastic vaint, who was fort idden meat by the rules of his order. No man ever produced higher fruits of the imagination than Shelley, who was 2 devout vegetarian. A much greater amount of vegetable than of

anime! food can be producedon a given area. The ivclination of the taste as human nature grows more refined points the tame way. Homeric heroes eat masses of meat, apparently without vegetables; and to the bard of that day the picture of

the shambles is pot less congenial than that of the harvest or the vintage. To us

the details of the shambles are abhorrent. We require with our meat, while there is atendency to disguise the meat itself by elaborate cookery. On the whole it seems probable that progressive vegetarianism is the rule, though there wi! be no sudden leap, nor will the vegetarian think it his duty to enforce his habit on us by law.

—A correspondent at Quebec rep:rts that while the strictest reticence 18 ma.n- tained as to the particulars of the debate, it may be stated on authority that the American commissioners have takeu an at titude that leaves no room to doubt their sincere desire to come (o an understanding. The general discussion has been such as to make the prospect bright for a com) rebev-~ sivearrangement. The American com-~ missioners are hard at work :tudying up Canadian affairs, and in their social inter-~ course with the Canadian representatives are getting a better understanding of the situation than they had when thev came

to Quebec. The public men of the United Statss are so engrossed all the time with the affuirs of their own great country that they have very

shadowy ideas in the maia regarding Can- ada and Canadian questions. The dele-~ gate therefore, whodid not know the hne of cleavage between Conservatives aod Liberals, or the distinctive features of the political platform of each, will be readily forgiven. This process of ‘aniliarizig the American delegates wich the position of atiairs in the Dominion is likely to bear fruit when the confererce takes up seriously the trade relations of the countries. The clear and conci-e fashion in which the Department of Trade and Commerce has submitted the figures re-~ lating to trade between Canada, Great Britain and the United States for the last half century will do much to impress op the Americans the chief point of the Can~ adian case, namely, that we are far better consumers of their goods than they are of ours, and that they cannot afford to go on treating us to exclusive tariffs without los— ing @ good customer. The more the figures compiled by the department are examined the stronger appears the Canadian case.

—Montreal Gazette: Some papers are asking if the federal Government will not disallow the Qntario Constables’ act. They evidently do notknow of the clos? relations beiween the Hardy and Laurier administration.

St John Globe: The Dingley tariff is not anideal one. It is not prodveing a revenue. In other words it is so intensely @ protective tariff that it fails to dothe principal work for which customs duties are levied. The country is face to face with these conditions. The war will add to the national debt and will, therefore, increase the burden of iuterest. In addi- tion to thisa heavier national expenditure annually will result from the extension of territory, and from the necessity which will arisefor greater expeoditure because of many of the conditions which the late war will leave. A wore strictly revenue tariff will, therefore, be necessary.

OUT IN THE COLD.

The Wianipeg Free Press (Grit), com- ménting on "Ras Wiman’s presence at the Quebec convention, says the Canadian people would be obliged if "Ras would stay away and mind his own business, as there ig no more reason for bim being there in this connection than any other United States citizen. It also reminds him tbat, while he posed for many years as a Bri- tisb subject but lived in New York, he is now an American citizen and “his game has vetered out.” The Winnipeg Tele-~ gram makes a text of the above to re- mark :

Times have, indeed, changed. Now their dear old friend Wiman has become poor and has served a term in jail for for- gery, the prosperous Grits have no use for him. Yet in the days of their adversity and his magnificence he was a good friend to them, and they could not sufficiently slobber over him. They eat at hie feet to Jearn political economy, and he provided them with their commercial policy, It is said he also provided them liberally with funds to fight their elections. In those not very ditr taut days they did not tell him that the Ca- nadian people would be obliged to him ifLe would mind his own business, nor did they sneer at his foreign allegiance. Not at alli. Mr. Wiman has apparently rot forgutcen his old friends even if they have only the marble heart for him. He, no doubt, thinks itquite appropriate that he saould forces gether with bis old pals, Cartwrignt and Chariton on this interesting occasion. The'rn u‘ual friend the farmer will be there too, and the meeting of these old cronice under these particular circumstances ought to he arare union. His old chums who were then veneered annexatiunists, are now 8o superioyal that they are tumbling over oneanother in their scramble for “tio-pot titles,” Sir Richard Cartwright has been made aG C MG, which, as the

Globe’s late Ottawa correspon~ dent could tell Mr. Wiman, is “something much bigher.”

Among the men the war has crated Co’. Roosevelt seems likely to first make his mark in politics. It is not certain that his regiment was excep'ionally well handled in the Santiago campa gn, but it got into the fight where it was sharpest, aud behaved itself. Roosevelt was with it where the work was hottest, and the reputation he thus won, added to that he had achieved in New York municipal politic’, and as assistaat Secretary of the Navy, rerved to make him a good deal of a popular hero. He is now recognized as a provable candidate for the ‘governorship of New York, with all that position may be a stepping stone to, and while he is not liked by the machine politicians there are signs that they miay take him up, lest worse befall them. If he does not head the Repablicaw ticket in the fal] campaign the signs are poiuting wrong.—Gazette.
