Within a week or so, it is said, the bill to amend the Franchise Act will be intro duced in Parliament. Rumor has it that besides providing amendments to conform with the boundaries established by the Redistribution Act of 1892, the bill will aim to reduce the cost of revising the lists.

Ido not know a great deal about the “combines” we read of somuch. I under- stand they exist in almost every industry —in the kerosene business, for instance, which is controlled in the United Siates by the Standard Oil monopoly. I am told that the high price of Kerosene is largely owing to a@ combine;~#nd there is good reason to believe that were it not for the Canadian oil, bad as it is, the Standard imon- opoly would control the Canadian trade, and that we would pay a much higher figure than we do now. It would seem that there is a combine in nearly every- thing, not the emallest of which is in burying the dead. This spring, in Ot- tawa, on a section of Bank Street about three or four blocks in length, no less than three new undertaking establish- ments have been opened, in addition to one previonsly there and another just around acorner.
