Notes and Comments.

Commenting en the Behring Sea matter, the London Times says. ‘**We think the question of the mare clausum, which Mr. B aine appears te desire to throw into the background, must be dealt with before pro- grees is possible. When that question is settled, England will be perfectly ready to co-operate with America in dealing with Behring Sea matters.”

—~Tar Examiner never said that the public debt was uct a tax upon the people. Consequently the Patriot's labored article of Saturday evening was net called for. But we contend that the debt was incurred for the development of the couatry and that the investment will prove to be « good one inthe end. Just as it pays a farmer to clear away the forest and build barns, so it will, we think, pay the people of Can- ada to make their great Northwest produc- tive and to build railways and public works for the promotion of the commerce of the country. The Patriot is of a different opin- ion. It is impossible to convince that journal! that the Northwest is worth devel- ( ping or that the public works are valuable.

—A writer in the November Century gives information in regard to the suffrage in England that will surprise many American readers, who do not realize the great strides of progress towards democracy that have been made of late years in Great Britain. The city government of Londen rests upon a franchise so popular that prac- tically nebedy who would care to vote is excluded. All householders have the bal- lot, and this includes every man who rents a place for bis family, even if only a small room ina garret or in acellar. Widows and unmarried women, who are household- ers, occupiers, or owners of property, are authorized to vute for county councillors, and all who are entitled to vote for such officers are entitled to be candidates for the office. Here is woman suffrage to an ex- tent unknown in progressive, democratic America, except in a few localities. The way for woman suffrage in this country is being paved by the adoption of the British system of voting, that haus been called the Australian ballot. This makes the polling places so quiet and respectable as to re- move the chief objection hitherto urged against allowing women to vote.

Hallowe'en.

A correspondent writes : The usual amount of tom-foolery was enacted at Souris on Hallowe'en. Gates were carried away, sign- boards removed, platforms torn up, and sundry other things done by mischievous youngsters of the town. Few escaped their pranks. A venerable dealer in goods, useful and ornamental, took time by the forelock by hiding away his signboard before dark. He escaped. Not so with other citiz-ns. One of the three or four truckmen with which the town is favored was thrown out of em- pleyment for the time being through the hidiog away of his horee by the youthful marauders. The horse was'nt found tii next evening. The owner, on recovering his pro- perty @was the eccpient of hearty con- yratulations. Neighbors gathered around him, and the photegrapher was sent for, who took a picture of the lost horse surrounded, as he ws by an interesting group of townspeop'e, prominent among whom might be seen the geuial postmaster, the blacksmith, the local butcher and others. The picture is now on exhibition at Mayo's studio. Hallowe'en tricks and pranks are generally regarded leniently, and in this light the Truckman took the sequestrat on of his quadruped, but it must be admitted that it is about time thet Hallowe'en capers were numbered among the fooleries of the, past.

Zhe Summer Port.

While Halifax and St. John are each putting forth claims why it should be made the winter port of the Dominion, a claimant for the landing of the mails during the summer mouths has been quietly coming to the front, and before the question of the new fast Atlantic line is finally settled, it will, undoubtediy, make a strong bid to be made the imitial point of arrival and final point of departure for the mail service. This port is North Sydney, Cape Breton, which, since Confederation, has made won- derful strides forward in its shipping busi- ness, and now compares favorably with Montreal, Halifax or St. John in the num- ber of its arrivals and departures. The North Sydney Herald, of last week, re- ported the shipping in port as follows :

‘‘Last evening the number and rig of vessels in port was, by actual count, 3 steamships, 5 barques, 7 brigantioes, aud 93 schooners—a total of 108 vessels.”

The great progress North Sydney has made during the last decade is due largely to the adoption of the National policy and the development of the coal trade resultant therefrom, and also to three special causes : first, to its superior harbor, which is second to none in the world for capacity, good anchorage and unrivalled safety of approach from sea; second, to its geographical pos- itionon the line dividing the Atlantic Ocean from the Gulf of the St. Lawrence, which makes it an equally convenient port of call for ships, whether bound up vor down the St. Lawrence, or to or from Europe aud the United Staes; third, to its superior advantages as a couling station, whether for full load or voyage supply. Now that the eastern extension of the Lutercolonial Rail- way, which is sbout to be opened for traffic, reaches North Sydney, it makes it one of the nearest as weil as the most convenient summer ports for the arrival and depart- ure of the mails between England and the Dominion; and, no doubt, a strong effort will be made to have that route adupted. — Ottawa Citizen.

Lincoln's Habits.

AN EARLY RISER AND ONE OF THE MOST ABSTEMIOUS OF MEN,

(Col. John Hay in the November Century)

The President rose early, as his sleep was light and capricious. In the summer, when he lived at the Suldier’s Home, he would take his frugal breakfast and ride into town in time to be at his desk at eight vclock. He began to receive visits nomin- ally at ten o’cluck, but long before that iwur struck the doors were beseiged by anxious crowds, through whom the people of importance, senators and meimbeas of congress, elbowed their way after the fashion which still survives. On days when the Cabinet met, Tuesdays and Fridays, the hour of noon closed the interviews of the morning. Onother days it was the President’s custum, at about that hour, to order the duors tu be opened and all who were waiting to be admitted.

At luncheon time he had literally to run

the gauntlet through the crowds who filled the corridors between his office and the west end of the house occupied by the family. The afternoon wore away in much the same manner as the morning; late in the day he usually drove out for an airing; at six o'clock he dined. He was one of the most abstemious of men; the pleasures of the table had little attractions for him. His breakfast was an egg and a cup of coffee; at luncheon he rarely took more than a biscuit and a glass vf milk, a plate of fruit in its season; at dinner Le ate sparingly of one or two courses. He drank litile or no wine; not that he remained a’ways on priuciple a total abstainer, as he was a part of his early life in tae fervor of the *‘* Washing- tonian”’ reform; but he never cared tor wine or liquors of any surt, and never used tobacco.

Who Votes in London.

London's new government rests upon a franchise so popular that practic«'ly nobody who would care to vote is excluded. In the first place, all householders ave enfranchised; ani this includes every man who rents a place for his family, even if it be only a small room in the garret or the celler of a tenement house, It also includes these who live within fifteen miles of the metropolis, but own. or occupy metropolitan quarters, for any purpose, worth a certain very limited rental. Owners of treehold property in London, no matter where they live, if British subjects, are en? titled to vote. Widows aad unmarried women who are householders, occupiers or owners of property, are also authorized to vote for county councillors.

The principal basis of the franchise is the household; and the chief disqualitications are receipt of public alms and failure to pay rates that have fallen due,

Sunot’s Fast Trve.—Snunol made great time in several practice spins on the Bay District track, San Francisco, one day last week. In fact, she was in such great form that Charles Marvin, who took the mare East when Bonner bought her, is confident he can win the large bonus offered if he beats Maud S.’s record. Track and weather were perfect, and after several preliminary trials, Sunol made the first half mile in 1.04, and the last quarter in 31}, which is a 2.05 gait. This is the fastest time ever made on this coast, and the time is correct, as the mare’s exploit was watched by many horsemen, A large number of the best horsemen are now on the track, but it has been decided to have Stamboul, Sunol and Palo Alto go against time at the Napa track the first week in November.
