One reads this, and is inclined to say, “Alas, poor West," but we can equal at home these burdensome discriniinations. The W‘esterner complains of dis‘criminatio1i of a freight rate of 55c. for a distance of 1232 miles. What would he say to a rate of153c for 307 tniles—which is the rate from Keniville to Sydney —-—ali1iost the same cost for a haul of four times the mileage? Again, Halifax is 1236 miles from (irimsby,a central point in the Niagara fruit belt. The rate toy express is $1.50 per 10c; lbs.; while the buyer in Sydney pays $1.65 to bring 100 lbs. of tomatoes from Hantsport, about 250 miles, and $1.50 to bring fruit from Sackville, N.l-l., .i distance of 311 miles. This is a mileage rate fotir times as great in the one case as in the tither. The Post is interested in newsprint. lts natural source of supply ‘is the new iiiill at Bathurst, .170 miles from Sydney The rate per 100 lbs. is 33% cents pcr‘100 miles, while from Hull, ‘a distance of 1120 miles, the rate is 18% cents pcr hundred miles. We hesitate to make comment on these extraordinary discrep- ancies in the cost of services which are not markedly dissimilar except geographically We cannot. take the position that railway officials are vampires, sucking the life blood of the C0llll1ltllllllCS they profess to serve. The meanest intelligence ziinong thein must .ie seized of the fact that the prosperity of the people served by it must make for the prosperity of a railway. ()ii the other hand, duty to their road iiicites thein to get the highest earnings they can, without checking the volume of business. ' We are inclined to believe that this check on rates has been ill-obseryetl by them. Personal observation and the talk one hears leads to the opinion that the cost of living is enhanced and thus he purchasing power of people reduced to the hurt of their rail- .vays, and, more directly, traffic is curtailed by high rates for traits- portation; for example, 85c to carry to Sydney a box of tomatoes weighing 50 p0unds——a box which costs fifty cents at llantsport s an entirely disproportionate remuneration between carriage and raising and packing the tomatoes. The box is carried 25o miles 1t the rate of $32.00 a ton, or $128011 hundred miles. firotesque» 'y tlisprojiortionate to the same railway’s rate of $30.00 pcr ton from (jriinsby t0 llalifax, a distance of 1230 miles, or $2.50 pcr ioo miles. ' \Ve know there are many phases of the problem of rate-mak- ng, seasonal competition, and the advantages of volume. liven giving ivhat weight a la_vman can to such considerations, it still ap— pearsihat thc FZIKYflHIIkCTS of our railways tire VlCllIIIS of what .1 pSyClllZPiYlSl would call the "long haul complex.” Tihc rtiilivays of the United States ivcrc pioneers iii tlic do vclopinciit of traffic by hauling cheaply stich traffic as grain, lllllll)i‘l' 11nd ore. liit train loads of priniary commodities arc not thi- only traffic. 'l‘liey handed LVCl‘ to the lixprcss kiflllljlfllllfih‘ tlicir highest class of traffic. The express companies ivere parasites on the railways, and plunilerers of the public. 'l‘hcy arc now in (‘an- ada component parts of the railways, btit their evil origin still taints tlicir procedurtx. \Ve hazard the prediction that a lllflllflgid‘ (Jfvgflllllfi will turn tip, who will not think it is good railway prac- tice to carry their highest class passenger traffic on ilie same train .vith goods; who will give the grealtest conveniences to the traffic which brings in most money; who will not have “Queen Anne” terminals and Mary Ann tracks; who will think that liurope is cultivating local business by favorable rates and quick tlispatch is ivise. lhit while ivc are waiting for liitii, we may point out that our shippers have a recourse. 'l‘hey can bring their cases, and some 11f them seem hard, to the lioard of Railway Commissioners, when they have exhausted thcse powers, there is still left to thi-in the creation of public opinion which will make an imperative de- mandon the Government to give the Commission any power they may now lack, itecessary to ensure justice being done both liastl and \\i'est. 'l‘his public opinion will not be found, until thepublicl feels that every effort has‘ been made by those immediately con-j ccriied. i Wle devote this article to certain evidences Cmiliflllliffify‘ nil our position with regard to the value of (juality in our fisheries,‘ First of all there is ground for believing that our fisheriesll may find themselves in a position greatly improved from anydhingl WlllCll seemed possible a twelveniontli ago. j Quality ivhich is the gift of nature made this spring, lnverncss mackerel worth $37.50 a barrel in New York.

Cod shows the same buoyancy in price. lt i; selling for $9.50 to $10.00. a quintal now. Last year it was bringing $7. llerring is bringing ‘$0.50 instead of about half as much last year. The trade is readjustiitg itself. Quality is telling iii spite of hostile tariff legislation.

Like any staple commodity fish is bound to b: itfccted by world conditions. and in the case of Ca '1da especially by conditions and tariffs in the United States. We can give one =xample where, we are assured, enterprise and courage at the worst of the depression offset its ill effects.

The last is indirect but it is very real. We have a warning in the case of our oysters. Twenty or thirty years ago, certain bays in P. E.

Winterdriving seems to de- mand a hardier breed of car than the mellow journeys of summer and autumn. Country roads are heavy and city streets are slippery but the lure of the open on a crisp, crackling, bril- liant winter day is irresist- able and so—-out you go. And if it isa Ford that car- ries ‘you comfortably along the frozen roads, you can go without a worry. Should some minor adjustment or replacement become neces- sary you know that there is a F-ord service station at the very first place you come to; that you will get quick, courteous service there at little cost; that the inter- ruption in your journey will be but a matter of minutes. And when the major service operations become necessaryias they clo with every car, the Ford owner again enjoys the distinct advantage of having quick low-priced authorized service immediately at his, command.‘ Surely wc :1rcl_ l’ $1-v1~ii.~~\\',1i~ wtint all t':ii1.'1il:i to b~ scizcil 11f tlic fact tli.11 the .\l:irt1iii,1c~ li.'1\i- lllt'l|' fiill ~l|lll't‘ 111' siicct-s-a-s: lllill coiiipziri-d \\1'11il1- lllt‘ rcadcrs of ilii-si» li-tttrs l1.i\'1- lictii jiziiii-iii, ii si-cnis with tlic :i<lj.'1ct-iit X1111" l'i.ii_-c§l:1_iiil .\1:11cs our ]1t1]1lll.'lll\|1| littiillirl ~ Th1- cniisiriictiyi- |1ropo.s:1l,cil niori- than lltillllli‘ tli:it oi tlii- .\i.'1ic.~. lllll llt'lll <10)» p.111 iii- lllfl‘ niziiiiiflictiirts flint-Q lll'lll\‘ Th1- aiiiis i1|"iiy1-iiiy ycars lt'\'lt‘1\<"l. _ _ _ _ . 1- . i1,,,._ m, 1,,,;i 'i,|‘.__.| l-i;1_li1. \\t- \\.ii11 to tlt yi-lop .'l spirit which will l~;1~i~p :11 liiiini ‘t‘ll\'11i'i' 11f ll1i'l1' ptinlllrl, i1ll1u1'\'. lid’ liiitllp-].i-i'l1l.if1i111s. g I _ p _ _ _ i 'l lic ziliiiyi- ~cric~ 1s :1 icczijiitiilzitiiin o1 stillll‘ iii olijcvtls‘. {is . - . . _ \.,. .
